It is said that Shiva sat in open-eyed meditation for 1000 years. When he finally blinked, the tears that streamed from his eyes became Rudraksha seeds (rud means tears). These sacred seeds take 25 years to mature. They are used in Shiva mantras, as well as Ganesh and Bhairava, but anything recited with them will be enhanced. Also reputed to help blood pressure problems.
