Two days ago a Kashmiri antique dealer enticed me to his shop in a mall in Chennai.
While displaying his wares like handmade shawls costing over 1 lakh rupees, I noticed a Black Onxy gem stone pendant 3 inches long and 2 inches wide.
He said the stone was found in Ladhak. I immediately bought it at an exhorbitant price, getting my son pissed off, at my naive foolishness.
So what did i buy?
Black onyx is the most powerful protection stone, worn by Buddhist monks in the Himalayas. It is extremely shiny and has a hardness of 7 on the Moh’s scale.
Black colour is the best absorber and radiator. All south Indian temples have back idols which absorbs and radiates energy. ( North Indian temples have white statues )
Black Onyx atone absorbs all but 3% of the radiation that strikes its surface, regardless of its wavelength and reflects no light.
Hung on the solar plexus , it helps one to absorb from the universe only those energies which are needed . It can absorb and transform negative energy. Hence it can relieve stress and give you emotional stability. It is almost like a Shiva linga in powers.
It can also radiate away and release your ego and all that is not in harmony within you. It helps you to sleep better.
Black Onyx is can centre and align your total person to the higher powers. It can thus enhance self control and encourage happiness .

Hi Capt,
ReplyDeleteYou are wrong in the 3rd pic.
The dome of Rock, or Masjid Al-Sakra, envelopes a hollow stone which is not Black in color.
I my self visited this masjid in 2005 and have touched and seen the stone. It's light brown in color and is hollow within, so much so that at least 4 people can stand and perform prayed at time.

hi murat,
ReplyDeletethe black shiva lingam stone is NOT exposed at the dome of the rock -- like at mecca kaaba.
this place is an areas which was once under the rule of indian kings.
nowadays even in india, in many shiva temples, the shiva lingams are totally covered in a veneer of gold metal -- that you cant see the stone.
the stone in vatican is also hidden in a vault.

While searching for good black onyx, I came across some other stones which people reviewed as being more helpful(like Tumbled Gold Tigers Eye Stone)..Good to know.. but i don't know technicality for any of these.
Thanks,
