Shivjyoti, founder and designer of each mala, had experienced since 2003 the profound energy and deep connection of Rudraksha, having received one from her Spiritual Preceptor, to use for daily meditation. Subsequently inspired to find a way everyone could experience the empowerment and protection of wearing these sacred and mystical beads she has gradually created what you see today, always encouraged and blessed by her spiritual master.
The word Shivoham came like lightning in the process of formalising the initial website, a platform to share these mala creations and rudraksha seeds beyond the spiritual centres and Yoga studios they had become part of. Shivoham means merging into the stream of consciousness.
Utilising the finest rare crystals, our gemologist sources AAA Grade or higher gems from ethical mines around the world, our Gemologist Gitu has them cut to different size and design for each mala. Our premium rudraksha pendants are Nepal origin, blessed and consecrated in Ganga at Har Ki Pauri (City of the Gods). In the Japa malas we use premium Indonesian beads due to their smaller size and usability in meditation. Every piece is blessed through ancient ceremony, love, respect and care, to carry their potent spiritual vibration and support for your spiritual development. We love our work and respect you, so you'll receive only the finest from us.
Our entire team and network revere these beads and work with devotion. In Australia we co-ordinate with highly respected craftsmen and are part of a large family business run for generations. Part of our family focus on the Rudraksha specialties while others concentrate on the quality of crystals and gemstones ensuring only the best are used, others carve our pendants and statues. At Shivoham we take enormous pride in passing on the finest quality Mala Beads in the world to you. Our work embodies devotion, love and sadhana.
