Traditional significance of the Shaligram · Vishnu Dashavatar.
Sacred Shaligram stones from the Kali Gandaki river bearing chakra markings of the ten Vishnu avatars. Each piece unique. The Shaligram · Vishnu Dashavatar is traditionally sourced from the Arun and Tamur valleys of eastern Nepal — the Himalayan Rudraksha belt, where the densest, most deeply-ridged beads in the world grow on the slopes above the rivers.
Each bead we sell is hand-selected in Kathmandu, photographed under daylight, and sent only on your WhatsApp confirmation. We don't run on a chatbot or a form — you message us, we reply, and you see what you'll receive before you pay. The spiritual benefits described above reflect traditional Vedic belief; we offer the bead, not the outcome.
How we verify authenticity
- • Visual inspection under daylight by experienced Kathmandu sorters
- • Ridge depth and mukhi-line clarity checked individually
- • Density test — genuine Himalayan beads sink in water
- • Optional X-ray laboratory certification for an additional $25
- • Lifetime authenticity guarantee — full refund if a bead fails any third-party test
See this exact piece before it ships.
Before dispatch we photograph and film the exact item you are buying — mukhi lines traced, both drill holes shown — and send it to you on WhatsApp.
An authentic bead has as many internal compartments as external faces. Ask and we will X-ray verify your piece and share the image with you.
Choose Pran Pratishtha at Pashupatinath and we share photos or video of your own piece at the ritual before it leaves Kathmandu.
About this piece.
Is this Shaligram · Vishnu Dashavatar genuinely from Nepal?
Yes — Nepal origin, direct from Nepal to your door. Our beads grow in and around Dingla, in the hills of Bhojpur — the Arun and Tamur valley country of eastern Nepal — and are hand-sorted in our Kathmandu workshop. Before dispatch we photograph and film the exact piece you will receive and send it to you on WhatsApp.
How is authenticity verified?
A genuine Rudraksha has the same number of internal seed compartments as external faces. On request we X-ray verify your exact piece and share the image with you before shipping.
Can this Shaligram · Vishnu Dashavatar be energized at Pashupatinath before shipping?
Yes. On request we complete the Pran Pratishtha ritual — energization, or consecration, what the tradition calls abhimantrit — at the Pashupatinath temple complex before dispatch, and share photos or video of your own piece at the ritual.
Do you ship worldwide, and how long does it take?
Yes — we ship express worldwide from Kathmandu. Message us on WhatsApp with your country and we confirm the delivery window before you pay. Most destinations receive orders within 5–10 days.
