Rudhraksha's speciality and importance is described and explained in Ashtadasapurana.
Birth of Rudhraksha
The Asura Thirupurasura won all the devas and was ill treating them. Devas prayed to Lord Parameshwara who blessed them that it will be done. Parameshwara sat in penace for about 33 lakh years with his eyes open and at the end of the penace when he closed his eyes tear drops fell from his year and those tear drops became Rudhraksha. Vedas say that this fact is told by Lord Shiva himself.
