Shall  a woman wear the Rudrakshah or not ?

We  already discussed about the Rudraksha how

 sacred it is and the benefits if it is worn.

But in the case of women ...

By nature she  feels  discomfort and

strain on those five days which is restricted.

Like wise, the twenty one days after the delivery which

is a filth impurity (Suthakam) and this is also restricted.

And the other  days of  Asoucha which  is also impurity . 

So by observing all that, if the women want to wear

 the Rudrakshah, they inevitably have to  wear.

By observing all those impurity days,  women

can not keep the Rudraksha sacred.

Hence the women should not wear

the Rudraksha what it is said.

But in the case of  widows,  here

and there they  wear Rudraksha maala .
