This beautifully geometric pendant depicts a single teardrop falling from an embellished, sterling silver triangle spacer in reference to Shiva. According to ancient texts, Shiva is said to have cried over humanity’s near destruction at the hands of the ancient, massive demon Tripura. Tripura had amassed so much power that he stood to destroy all of mankind. With many of the gods, including Vishnu unable to help, humanity pleaded with Shiva to find a solution to their problem. Shiva meditated for 1,000 years in silence, and at the end of his meditation he was suddenly overcome with compassion for mankind, and a single tear from his eye fell down into the Earth and became the plant known as Rudraksha, meaning the Eyes of Shiva.
Exotic India presents this beautiful pendant embellished with Moonstone and resting on Sterling Silver for the many benefits that these two materials have. Moonstone has been in spiritual use for over 2,000 years in India to channel the mysterious qualities of the moon, specifically intuition, lucid dreams and the natural rhythms of Nature.
