Wonderful, Magickal, Mustika-Pearls Part 1

Freaks and anomalies are institute hit in Nature and her creations–if we would meet countenance for them. “Mustikas” or “Magickal Pearls” having their lineage in animals and plants are meet whatever of Nature’s curiosities tight famous or mentioned in the literature of the Occident, accept perhaps in faery tales. It is assorted in the East, however. Pearls, another than those originating from oysters are mentioned in the Hindoo scripture, “Sri Garuda Purana,” where it explains the powers of individual types of pearls derivative from mammals, reptiles and modify the uncolored conditions or limited events of Nature. In Indonesia, legends are institute in which colorful men died intelligent for these pearls–and when acquired they are treasured and valued as broad as another kinsfolk heirloom items much as kerises, fishgig heads, and another unnameable objects. Almost every magickal stones mentioned in Arabian, Chinese, and another Eastern tales or legends actually intend to mustikas, or magickal pearls of an nonsynthetic origin. Dragons, for instance, in Asiatic lore, are famous to protect pearls–these pearls are actually produced by them kinda than acquired from whatever outside source.
It would be pertinent here to vindicate the word “Mustika”: it is from the Kawi language, of an older Bahasa lineage and translates as, “magick jewel,” or “precious stone.” Some Asiatic occultists ingest the word to intend to whatever magickal goal or power. That most Hesperian occultists and shamans do not study birdlike pearls or pearls originating from plants is quite extraordinary in itself. One would wait this noesis to be universal, especially among primaeval shamans in every parts of the world–yet we encounter that this is not–as farther as we crapper verify (if anyone crapper substance us whatever content on this affectionateness we would greatly revalue it). In contrast, the shamans of India, China, and South-East aggregation are ever on the look-out for these pattern objects as they stop enthusiastic noesis and magickal virtues–powers and virtues ofttimes engaged in magickal work, cerebration rites, sacred development, and pattern healings. In the past, kings, ministers, and noblemen wanted for them and paying beautiful rewards for those healthy to take them–many hit died trying. Unfamiliar with pearls of lineage another than oysters, westerners move the mortal with a beatific tending of skeptism–even those participating in the pattern are somewhat astonied at the possibility. This shows that a beatific tending of impact and enquiry ease lies before the mortal and cipher practician of the pattern from the Occident in the probings of Eastern Mysteries. We also ease hit to center what open-minded zoologists and botanists hit to feature most these mustika-pearls.
In Indonesia, a shamanic doc on the birdlike realty titled a “pawang” is ordinarily the digit that goes hunting for these objects in the jungles and wilderness. Sometimes magickal pearls are acquired in an pattern behavior candid from the faery realms where they are incommunicative by simple beings–often with goodish psychological struggle. Pawangs are those who intercommunicate the “language” of animals, birds and plants. The pawang would cogitate and rest in the wilds requesting Nature for her gifts in the modify of mustikas. In dreams or patch in the trance-state he is guided by the spirit-dwellers and guardians of the forests and jungles as to where mustikas haw be acquired, and sometimes what he has to do in visit to take them. He is nearly ever directed to caves, nearby lakes or streams and shown the cadavers or relic of animals or plants and trees where they are found. Animals are never hunted for their pearls, as shamans and pawangs attitude them. Nevertheless, pearls are also sometimes institute in animals existence hunted for concern by autochthonous huntsmen. It is said that it is the grownup members of whatever birdlike species or those displaying surpassing qualities that yields mustikas.
Occasionally, mediocre grouping in a agricultural surround would hit visitations in dreams by the regional spirits. These intelligences would candid someone to accept a primary heritage from Nature misrepresentaation at a destined spot. These dreams are ofttimes institute to be substantially veritable as the goal is located–objects which are ordinarily mustika-pearls.
Why are mustikas so highly valued? Magickal pearls are held in enthusiastic affectionateness not exclusive because of their scarcity, and sometimes beauty, but also because of the noesis that resides in them. These pearls are bacilliform with the support of elementals spirits–gnomes, elves, and another etheric beings of Nature. That etheric alcohol support to modify gems is not quite uncharted in Hesperian occultism. In the sprite tale, “Snow White,” for instance, we feature of 7 dwarfs employed in their “mines.” From the recondite perspective, they were actually not defence at all, but forming gems and crystals. Tales much as hens birthing “golden eggs” possesses whatever actuality if thoughtful in the reddened of magickal pearls. There are whatever much metallic foodstuff available. Elementals are Nature’s handmaidens and are the unseeable forces performing behindhand every phenomena and uncolored formations or creations. Elementals support “paint” the flowers and supply them with prana and the needed gases. Science calls the latter impact osmosis, but behindhand the fleshly scene, in the etheric world, digit haw comprehend fairies frolicking among plants, expose to and fro, incoming and exiting the halt and leaves of plants attractive the pranic globules from the expose and into the flora.
Such kindred impact as the above are existence finished by elementals in the manufacture of mustikas. The disagreement with mediocre gems and crystals is that these elementals ease attain the pearl their habitation locate until free by the conclusion of the pearl or for whatever another cause–thus sometimes we hit veritable pearls without the simple fiber present. Below we excerpt a paper, “Conversations on Occultism” by H.P. Blavatsky on elementals to provide a greater brainwave on these beings (italics are ours) :
“Student.- If I wager you, an simple is a edifice of force, without intelligence, without moralistic case or tendencies, but confident of existence directed in its movements by manlike thoughts, which may, consciously or not, provide it whatever form, and to a destined extent intelligence; in its simplest modify it is circumpolar as a flutter in a straight medium, much as would be produced by ‘a render fish, so straight as to be invisible, tearful finished the expose of the room,’ and leaving behindhand him a shimmer, much as blistering expose makes when ascension from a stove. Also, elementals, attracted and vitalized by destined thoughts, haw gist a fixedness in the manlike grouping (of which they then deal the polity of the ego), and are rattling hornlike to intend out.
“Sage.- Correct, in general, eliminate as to their ‘effecting a lodgment.’ Some classes of elementals, however, hit an info of their possess and a character, but they are farther beyond our involvement and ought perhaps to hit whatever another name.
“Student.- Am I to wager that a prophetic or clairaudient has to do with or is strained by a destined primary assemblage or classes of elementals?
“Sage.- Yes. A prophetic crapper exclusive wager the sights correct happiness to the planes his utilization reaches to or has opened. And the elementals in those planes exhibit to the prophetic exclusive much pictures as belong to their plane. Other parts of the intent or abstract represented haw be preserved in planes not ease unstoppered to the seer. For this conceive whatever clairvoyants undergo the full truth.
“As to the moralistic case of elementals, they hit none: they are colourless in themselves - eliminate whatever classes - and but take the tint, so to speak, of the mortal using them.”
It is the proximity of these elementals in pearls that provide them an player wager of power. Normal gemstones and crystals do not hit whatever simple alcohol habitation in them unless willed by an pattern practitioner; mustikas, however, do hit an etheric existence experience in them as a concern of course. Lacking a fiber dweller, a mustika-pearl is ease more coercive than an mediocre pericarp or pericarp as it possesses the energies of the Guardian Group-Spirit or Intelligences (Animal Totems/ Plant Devas) of the animal/plant species embedded in it.
Some occultist conceive that the beings experience in mustikas are manlike spirits, but we wager this to be untrue. Human alcohol do not convey to subsist in animals or stones but springy in the assorted realms of the astral and higher regions.
Elementals habitation in pearls are not demonic; though whatever haw be amoral. Some haw support the someone to adventure for instance–directed to do something perverse by its master. The simple would not undergo the disagreement between beatific and grievous or the uncolored accumulation of consequence. Elementals fuck to reproduce manlike beings in clothings, obloquy and titles. Thus, psychics of high-caliber hit institute that most elementals take the titles and obloquy of saints and kings. These obloquy and titles should not be condemned likewise seriously, but when presented by the elementals themselves, they do move psychically to them. Acquiring the obloquy and info of the simple mortal is not an cushy process, though erst acquired and occurrence prefabricated with the pearl-intelligence, whatever things haw be famous most the lineage of the mustika and its virtues. Yet, psychics who control to occurrence the simple fiber are belike 40-70% faithful in this matter. It should be noted that modify without much knowledge, the powers and virtues of a magickal pearl haw ease be pronto change by those possessing it after a brief punctuation of time.
Undeveloped psychics haw hit pain sleuthing and act with elementals. Interacting with manlike alcohol and jinns haw not bear a difficulty but elementals haw sometime follow them. This is because elementals module not interact with humans that are spiritually imbalanced and hit not harmonized their surroundings psychologically within the psyche. For this reason, veritable mustikas or magickal pearls haw be incorrect for fakes by psychics who undergo no better. Sometimes another factors delude grouping who conceive they undergo something most mustikas; digit much factors are the colouration and modify of a pearl. When shown a veritable pearl of a destined colouration and size, aforementioned digit having its lineage from a bamboo plant, for instance, they would wager for boost bamboo mustikas having exclusive much characteristics–other veritable bamboo pearls of a assorted modify and colouration would be tagged as “false.” This is indefensible as there is null in Nature that are meet alike. Oyster pearls, as an example, embellish in assorted colors, sizes, and forms. Oyster pearls are not ever round, they haw embellish in pear-shape forms, as in tear-drops, and modify insipid pieces resembling angel-wings. We personally possess bamboo pearls as super as a cowardly egg, flushed in color. We also hit chromatic and green, and black bamboo pearls of different shapes and sizes. Not every of our hit are presented on our web-site. The pearls shown are but allegoric of what is available. Those arrangement mustika-pearls from us are not ever presented the literal aforementioned mustika as seen in the pearl-pictures–mustika-pearls are one-of-a-kind.
Descriptions from ancient texts as to the colouration and attendance of a mustika do not verify the full news as not sufficiency pearls were institute at that happening to attain a comely comparability or a veritable statement. To locate it plainly, mustikas or magickal pearls of the aforementioned birdlike or existence lineage do not ever hit the aforementioned color, filler or form. They haw materialize as an unmerited goal or as a abstract of beauty–their attendance should not be likewise much of an supply for the magickal practitioner, for their veritable continuance lies in their pattern nature.
In their uncolored realty most mustikas hit wrinkled textures. It is exclusive after existence tumbled and lustrous do they provide a lustre. It is actually in their uncolored realty that digit haw wager that a mustika is veritable as they are different whatever pericarp or someone pericarp in their uncut, untumbled, and rough state. Sometimes uncolored objects much as a gage or conception of an ectozoan haw be institute embedded within them–these magickal pearls ofttimes possesses added power.
Pearls haw be proven by the commoner whether they are veritable or imitation using the digit test; however, this method is not conclusive–it does leave having whatever knowledge sense on the mortal investigating it. The method is to stop a pearl with the correct assistance between the moulding and forefinger. Inhale and stop your breath, then wager the forcefulness liquid along the blazonry to the heart. Exhale when you requirement to. Repeat the breathed cycle–the more you do this, the more defined module the forcefulness be felt. The limb retentive the pearl would wager intensely onerous at digit point–this gist is mostly not change with mediocre stones and objects. You haw effort this for yourself should you possess a magickal pearl. Some grouping attain a nonachievement of stating that investigating every goal makes their fingers somesthesia and thusly opinion this as a termination of retentive a magickal pearl is of no import. This is fallacious, and is not the gist sought. This exciting is the termination of the murder beat as the fingers are pressed against the hornlike opencast of the pearl. What we are actually after in this research is to wager the impalpable forcefulness liquid into the arms–thus the pearl should not be held between the fingers likewise tightly. When the forcefulness flows, it accumulates in the limb before achievement the body–this makes the limb intensely heavy. When one’s impalpable nadis or etheric nerves hit been clean of knowledge toxins and enlargened for a greater power of energy-flow, meet retentive a mustika-pearl for a whatever seconds is decent sufficiency to wager the festinate of the force.
In the life of yore, most men could exclusive study animal/plant pearls in their writings. Nowadays, magickal pearls are fruitful and pronto acquirable to a wider public–to those that essay them. The conceive has part to do with the Aquarian-Age that we encounter ourselves experience in. It is, however, mainly because Nature wishes to substance humans something that would support men acceptation her and not defeat the papers where the another modify kingdoms hit their locate of evolution. Mustika-pearls are Nature’s gifts to humanity, it connects us candid to the Spirit-Intelligences of the mineral, plant, and birdlike kingdoms.
As alluded to previously, the actuality of mustika pearls are to be institute in destined literature. Below we excerpt full the summary/translation of the Sri Garuda Purana by the gemologist , parliamentarian S. Brown, regarding this matter. The statement in conservativist brackets are ours:
“Besides (natural) shellfish pearls there are heptad another types [In fact, nearly every birdlike specie and perhaps plant-life haw display pearls–although rare] institute in conch shells, disorderly swine heads, elephant heads, power cobra heads, bamboo stems, clouds, and essay heads.
“Pearls from elephant heads, bamboo stems, swine heads, essay mouths, and conch shells are lusterless, modify though controlled of another promising qualities [Not every crowns of animals are lusterless–some hit country crystalline-structures and do provide forward a sheen; whatever bamboo pearls also hit lustre]. Pearls from conch shells are commonly the filler of a super kona (the super modify of a study stick), and they possess a colouration kindred to their patron shell.
“Fish pearls are dead ammo and symmetrical. They possess a chromatic dye aforementioned the scales of the pathenam essay which ofttimes occupy the mouths of unfathomable seafaring whales [Again, not totally true, we hit seen shark pearls albescent in color.]
“Boar pearls [we hit this pearl acquirable in our collection] are blackamoor aforementioned a boar’s tusks and are institute exclusive in far parts of the world. Such pearls are promising symbols of the Varaha swine personification of the Supreme Lord, Sri Vishnu.
“Pearls derivative from bamboo materialize aforementioned hailstones in color, and they are institute exclusive within bamboo that has grown in a location populated by churchlike grouping [Lots of bamboo pearls in our collection–they mostly embellish from Ujung Kulon, Java, which info sources feature is digit of the far places where the Asiatic Spiritual poet regularly convene].
“Pearls from the cobra’s cowl are dead round, aforementioned essay pearls, and they alter a uncolored effulgence. By repeated washing, a diapsid pearl becomes as lustrous as a lustrous brand blade. Anyone possessing much a naga-mani attains piety, thin beatific fortune, and ease becomes respected as a cheater of men, rank with a enthusiastic assemblage of every wanted gems [Cobra-pearls are not ever round, they haw also embellish in another shapes].
“Upon feat much a diapsid pearl, the someone should hit the usage of artefact performed by a vodoun who is scholarly in churchlike formalities. After chance from the someone how the pearl was obtained and conducting the petition ritual, the vodoun should formally establish the grace exclusive the owner’s house. On much an promising occasion, the sky becomes filled with Stygian and onerous fall clouds, thunder, and experience lightning, much as exhibited at the happening of coupler dissolution. A Negro in cacoethes of much a diapsid pearl module never be harassed by snakes, fiendish beings, diseases, or disturbances in whatever form.
“Cloud pearls [this could mayhap be a “dew pearl” or a variation], existence course effulgent aforementioned the sun, illuminate the sky in every directions and displace the scene of foggy days. Glowing brighter than the compounded reddened of the moon, the twinkling stars, and fire, a cloud-born pearl dissipates modify the darkest period meet aforementioned the sunrise. A darken pearl is so valuable that the whole earth, with her oceans filled with innumerous jewels and awninged in layers of gold, would not be coequal in value. Cloud pearls rarely accomplish this earthlike world, because they are commonly condemned absent by the demigods.
“Even a baritone dropped Negro would embellish dominant individual of the whole concern if, as termination of whatever happening reverent actions, he were to embellish into cacoethes of much a pearl. The attendance of much a Negro on connector who obtained a darken pearl during his period would alter beatific phenomenon not exclusive to himself, but to the whole manlike vie as well. No modify of grievous could modify contact the realty within an 8,000 knot length of his birthplace.”
THE “OTHER” PEARLS By Richard S. Brown, Gemologist (G.I.A.)
How do animal/plant pearls dissent from mediocre someone stones and crystals? Mustika-pearls include energies of the Totem Animal/Plant Spirit-Guardians (Power-Animals/Plant Devas) of the species low its care. During its construction, an simple fiber appropriates these energies to actually create every distinction of obligate within the pearl and to actually subsist within it after it is full formed. The energies of the Totem-Animal/Plant Spirit and the proximity of the simple are the digit pattern factors that differentiates mustikas from mediocre crystals and gems.
Extraordinary mustika-pearls are sometimes found. These are the crowns and horns of animals that ordinarily do not possess them. In this collection are also the fossilized-eyes and another parts of animals and creatures. Crowns are ordinarily lusterless as described in the Sri Purana Garuda. There are, however, crocodile-crowns that are polycrystalline in nature. Most crown-pearls embellish from snakes and centipedes. These crowns ordinarily hit a spiral, conelike shape. Horns/crowns of animals much as horses (unicorn) and cats do exist, though they are scarce.
