What the Trishul means in Hindu tradition

The Trishul is the trident carried by Lord Shiva. Its three prongs are explained in tradition in several ways, often as creation, preservation and dissolution.

The Damaru is the small hand drum of Shiva. Nandi is the sacred bull who serves as his vehicle, and his statue faces the shrine in many Shiva temples.

A pendant is a symbol of devotion. This page does not promise any result from wearing one.

Trishul pendant for men and women

Men and women both wear them. Some people prefer a bold pendant on a Karungali malai, and others like a simple silver plated pendant on a chain.

Compare the photos to see the shape of the Trishul, the Nandi, the Damaru and the Rudraksha. Each product page lists the size, the chain or malai and other details.

Wearing and caring for your pendant

Many devotees wear a Shiva pendant on a Monday, the day associated with Lord Shiva, after a short prayer. Practice varies, so follow your family tradition.

Keep plated pendants away from water, perfume and sweat, and wipe them with a soft, dry cloth. Keep Karungali malai dry.

Store each piece in its own pouch so that it does not scratch.
