We all have a protective layer of invisible energy around us. This protective layer, called Aura, acts as a shield against the energies of outside world. Not just human beings but animals and non-living spaces also have their own Aura.
Whenever you interact with someone or visit a place, there is an exchange of energies between you and different entities. This exchange is so subtle that it is not perceivable by most beings.
When your Aura is weak and unprotected and you come in contact with a negative person or entity, there is a risk of their negativity entering your Aura. The ill-effects of such an encounter may vary from bad health to financial loss, depending upon the intentions of the malefic forces.
This is why spiritual and religious teachers recommend wearing malas and bracelets of certain crystals to strengthen your Aura and also protect it from outside negativity. Here is a list of malas/bracelets you can wear to protect your Aura against Evil Eye.
Have you ever wondered why saints, sages and seers always wear Rudraksha mala beads all around their bodies?
Since these sages are highly sensitive towards the play of energy within and outside them, they realise that the Rudraksha beads work both ways: it protects them from the negative energies of the outside world as well as helps them in their spiritual growth. These sages would travel from one place to another all the time, dealing with forces and energies of all kinds. And during their intense meditation practices, evil forces of other dimensions would always try to disrupt their practice. Such is the power of Rudraksha that it provides protection even against the most potent of negative energies.
