Story of Goddess Lakshmi and 7 Mukhi Rudraksha
Goddess Lakshmi is known for bestowing wealth and abundance. When she was in Devlok, Lord Indra was resplendent and mighty as the king of Devatas. When he was cursed for his arrogance and carelessness by the Sage Durvasa, Goddess Lakshmi leaves him, rendering him weak and without glory. She then graces the Naaglok as well as the lower world of the Asuras. The king of Asuras, Bali was blessed abundantly by her. When the quest for Amrut began, it was decided to churn the ocean. Both Devas and Asuras saw her emerging from the ocean of milk amidst the churning. She promptly chose Vishnu as her husband and went with him to Vaikuntha. It is in this place that she sat with her husband on the mighty Ananta Naag and displayed her Sthira (stable) form. Seven Mukhi Rudraksha

This bead absolves the sins resulting from them.
