What is 2-Mukhi Rudraksha? 

• The Dwimukhi Rudraksha is the symbol of the most sacred and highest form of union. It symbolizes the union between Shiva and Shakti as well as “Ardhnareshwar.” 
• The two Mukhi Rudraksha is a symbol of the fusion of intellect and the spirit as depicted in Shiva as well as Parvati as well as the Shivalinga. Anyone who wears this Rudraksha receives happiness, luck and the fulfilment of their most cherished dreams.

• The one comes originated from Java both of which are both extremely potent Mukhis. Two shades of brown that are found in two Mukhi Rudraksha two shades of brown, one lighter brown as well as a darker brown. 

2-Mukhi Rudraksha, according to the Vedic Scriptures: 

• Three words—”Ardha,” “Nari,” and “Ishwara,” all meaning “half,” “woman,” and “lord,” respectively—combine to form Ardhanareeshvara, or the lord whose half is a woman.
• The male deity is worshipped as Lord Shiva, while the female deity is worshipped as Goddess Parvati or Shakti, Shiva’s spouse. Powerful and creative, the Ardhanareeshvara is a symbol of Hinduism. The union of masculine and feminine principles is represented by Ardhanareeshvara.
• The harmony of polarities is a theme that this piece explores. Purusha represents the human soul, whereas Prakriti represents the material world.
• Ardhanareeshvara brings peace between two seemingly incompatible lifestyles—the ascetic’s spiritual path, personified by Shiva, and the householder’s worldly path, personified by Parvati. Shiva and Shakti are represented as a one entity.
• One cannot simply define a human being as a unisexual creature. We are both masculine and female at our biological core. Scientists have discovered that neurohormonal systems play a significant role in shaping sexual behaviour.
• The notion of “Ardhanareeshwara” has become familiar to the contemporary world because of its aspiration to reconcile the contradiction of opposites into a oneness not via negation but through the positive experiences of life. When polarities are balanced, life’s real beat may be heard.

How do you identify the original 2-Mukhi Rudraksha: 

• Quality Rudraksha contains mukhis that have an obvious outline, which flow through their entirety. The majority of the time, single-mukhi Rudraksha beads with more than 12 lines can be made by traders with purposes of earning an impressive profit. The upper mukhi is created by the carving of the lower mukhi. 
• As per Maha Shiv Puran, most way to know the authenticity of a 2-Mukhi is authentic is to break the beads along its center and count the number chambers.
• The lines in the chambers must be equal to the number of Mukhis located on the outside part of the bead. In X-rays, you can see the lines that are inside. The authentic Rudraksha is an exquisite body with clearly defined grooves or Mukhis.
• Artificially or fake Rudraksha may look identical to the original, but the features (Mukhis) don’t match exactly with genuine beads. Beads that weren’t created in full or consumed by insects have a greater probability of falling. 
• The Rudraksha beads will spin in the event that you place it between two coins of copper, in accordance with the Copper Coin Test. A lot of people do this and do not realize the truth or why it is since they think it’s due to Rudraksha beads’ magnetic and physical characteristics.
• When you place a circular object (like the Rudraksha beads) within two smooth metal coins, it can spin as a result of the force of gravity acting on the pivoting area of the Rudraksha beads. It has nothing to do to the authenticity that is the Rudraksha.
• In the event that the Rudraksha is securely held between two coins or if its protrusions are smooth and do not block the motion, it could there is no spin at all.
• If customers notice that their Rudraksha beads don’t seem to spin easily when held in their hands and they are often tempted to jump into the conclusion that the bead is not real.
