Importance of Kolhapuri Dashavtara Saaj – 

                   If you deeply observe the Indian culture, we have given tremendous importance to the things that bring energy into our lives to make them better. Considering the natural psychology of Hindu tradition we brought our Devi and Devatas (Gods) in almost all walks of our life to nourish all aspects of humans’ life. In ancient times, our ancestors used to recite many stotras and mantras of different gods to get specific skillsets from various gods, but deep within they all were aware of the term of oneness i.e. the whole universe including all gods are one and the same and they all are made up of energy.                     

                 We always come across the terms of positive or negative energy, but frankly speaking, the energy is neither positive nor negative. Even though our perception decides the energy is positive or negative, life expects extraordinary energy to tackle the obstacles in life and to overcome them. It becomes very easy to cross the hurdles in our daily life if we are connected to the main source of energy. We have achieved the same concept by representing all avatars of Vishnu in this beautiful Dashavatara necklace i.e. Saaj in the forms of pendants. You will feel the energy of Lord Vishnu in you start wearing this on specific occasions of life. 

               At the time of the Upanayana ceremony in Indian culture, one thread is worn around the body of the boy, which indicates that he is going to start his learning phase of life from his Guru. The Yadnopavit thread is a set of 9 threads that represents 9 important energy-giving gods which take care of the child in every aspect of his life. It is assumed that the tread will keep giving energy to the boy who has worn it. The same philosophy is applicable in jewelry as well, if you wear this Dashavatara Saaj, you will start feeling energy after some days which can the same increase your confidence level and bring a smile to your face.
