NOTE:
Other than YOGA SUTRA (for yoga) Patanjali seems to have written two other texts called
MAHABHASHYA (for Sanskrit Grammar) and CHARAKAPRATISANSKRITA (for

Compiling these texts in one life by anyone is just incredible.

Yantra [Talisman] to Prevent Travel


This is a Stambhan Yantra, which is prepared to prevent and stop the journey of any person, including a loved one or an enemy. In the
Hindi language, this Yantra is called as the Yatra Stambhan Yantra or a Talisman to prevent travel. Given below is the method of putting
it to actual practice.

The Yantra has to be prepared as shown in the image on a flat piece of any stone. A mixture of Gorochana [animal part found in Indian
stores selling Tantra items], Kunkum [Vermillion Powder], Mansheel [the substance Realgar] and Hartal [Yellow Orpiment] in equal
quantities. A pointed wooden stick should be used to write the Yantra.

Yantra [Talisman] to Prevent Travel

After the Yantra has been prepared, it has to be worshiped by offering it flowers, incense, the lighting of an Oil Lamp and offering it a
sweet dish as Bhog.
Then a small hole has to be dug in the ground and the Yantra has to be buried inside that hole.
Note- Replace the word Amukam

with the name of the person whose journey is intended to be prevented.

Bhairavi Stambhan Mantra for Enemies


This is a Bhairavi Mantra Sadhana to gain paranormal protection against the weapons of enemies. As pointed out in earlier posts, these
mantras are ancient spells, where enmities where mostly settled through swords and knives, hence the practitioners sought divine
protection against harm from enemy weapons.

These protection experiments are mostly Tamas [fearsome] practices and hence the fearsome manifestations of various Hindu Deities
are sought to be invoked. This Prayog invokes the Goddess Bhairavi.

Bhairavi Stambhan Mantra for Enemies

The Siddhi over the mantra is gained in a Smashan Bhumi [Hindu Cremation Ground]. The Sadhana is usually commenced on a Siddha
Yoga Day like Amavasya, Holi, Grahan Kaal, Navaratri and Diwali. The practitioner has to chant the mantra 21,000 times sitting
completely nude on the ground.

After completing the Mantra Japa, he has to worship the Goddess Bhairavi by making offerings of Wine and Meat.

Then whenever the Yogi wishes to use the Mantra Proyog, if threatened by enemies, the following Shastra Stambhan
Experiment [Immobilization] has to be conducted.

Shastra [

] Stambhan Prayog

The seeds of the Apamarga Plant [Devils Horsewhip pr Prickly Chalf Flower] have to be taken in the hand and infused by chanting this
Stambhan Mantra 21 times and thrown in front of the enemies. This is said to immobilized the hands of the enemies and render their
weapons useless.
Note - In English Shastra, [

] weapon and [

] religious scripture or texts are spelled in the same way.

Tantric Experiments using Gunja Plant


Indian Tantra Vidya, believes that the Gunja Plant [Abrus precatorius], known in common English as Rosary Pea or Indian Licorice, has
strong magical properties. Numerous Mantra Sadhanas and Prayogas are conducted by Tantrics, using the various portions of this plant.
This site has from time to time given some Mantra Experiments, making the use of the Gunja Plant. In this post are given 3 unique
experiments for 3 different purposes, which are conducted, using the parts of this plant.
These experiments do not need and kind of Mantra Vidhi or Sadhana, however, one has to have achieved a certain degree of progress in
the field of Tantra Vidya, to successfully perform such experiments.
However, it is best to point out that such experiments are conducted under the guidance of an experienced practitioner as this plant it
known to have toxic content which is harmful to the human body.
For Vashikaran Purposes
Keeping a portion of the root of the Gunja, in the pocket is believed to ensure success in legal and court related matters. It is also said
to influence powerful persons in a position of authority, create a good impression on such persons, win their favor, and receive respect
from them.
If the root is crushed to a paste and a Tilak is put on the forehead, it is said to put all those people whom one meets come under a
Vashikaran Spell of attraction.
For Exorcism
If 5 Gunja Seeds are stringed and tied as a Talisman around the neck of a person believed to be possessed by spirits, ghosts or evil
entities; the outside energies will leave the body and aura of the possessed person.
To have a Darshan of Kali Mata
The Tantra says that if Gunja Seeds are crushed to a paste and a Tilak of this paste applied on Kali Mata, then the Mother Goddess will
give him a Darshan in some form or the other and fulfill his wish.

Future Space World on L2 Luna - 3


By always very finely monitoring the position of a Fullball world at the Earth-Luna L2 location, they could early make fine adjustments
when helpful. Ion jets might be used. There were other possibilities for very light fine adjustments. They could give a special tilt to the
Solar energy collecting film disk so that the unabsorbed sunlight getting reflected away from the surface would cause some weak
radiation pressure in a useful tilted wanted direction.
Or they could use special reflecting films to accomplish this. Or they could occasionally have sunlight reflected focused to superheat
some asteroid matter to serve as an adequate effective small rocket.

Actually it would be safer here to have the settlement formed in a mildly elliptic mildly tilted monthly orbit. It would then usually be
somewhat above or below, before or behind L2. Sounds silly? No. Very sensible. There was ample Lunar hidden space all around L2,
more than half Luna's width! So if conservative religious murderous haters of genetically altered moderns might ever read any future
speculation about a place for maybe several moderns kept hidden at L2, and thus suspiciously had L2 closely viewed by an orbiting
telescope, the dark hidden settlement wouldn't be there to see nor to even briefly blink hidden any remote star. Or if ever foes hateful
against moderns sought to blast apart anything speculated at L2, there'd be nothing quite there to hit.

By now with extra free time, (thanks to free serving robotic devices), more moderns had assisted making inventions useful to Earth
humans. Some had some saved earned profits they now partly combined to pay well the investors taking care of the orbiting
settlements, to have them begin having loads sent from source asteroid(s) to begin forming a secret new L2 Fullball world for moderns
completely hidden behind Luna. The investors group deserved good payments to reward them for their excellent idea.

The Earth-Luna L2 point is 61,491km from Luna's center. (Luna, of radius 1,738km, is 384,393km from Earth.) Communications
cubes sent to the Earth-Luna L4 & L5 Lagrangian points, 60deg before and after Luna in its orbit, could communicate with anything out
behind Luna if up there at 15.5% of Luna's radius, (merely .45% of L2's altitude).

This is a guest post. Questions? Ask Iwas.A.Member@gmail.com. If interested in much more about advanced future folks living quite
well in space, ask for DOS compressed email attached FBW.Z

Mantra for the Riches of Life


The Ashta Aishwarya or the eight riches of life are broadly - first and foremost spiritual wealth then not necessarily in this order - money,
food, animals, children, strength, victory and knowledge. This broadly corresponds to the Ashta Laxmi or the eight manifestations of
Laxmi. These Ashta Aishwarya were the considered as the wealth of life by the ancient Indians; its the same now.
I have just the mantra to meditate on the riches of Life; though number of chants does not matter; one can chant or meditate upon this
mantra as many times as one likes. The glowing image at the bottom is the mantra.

Mantra for the Riches of Life

Meaning I bow to Laxmi; the one in the form of Ashta Aishwarya.

Posted 07 May 2009 - 09:31 AM

After viewing almost all the pages in this forum and other sites on the internet i've found following vashikaran/sammohan mantras. But,
I don't know which amongst these are working or are tested and how they can be used to accomplish the goals. Choose one at your own
discretion. Any expert advice is welcomed on these : ----- VASHI KARAN MANTRAS (1) Vashi Karan Mantra(Use of Supari) Supari (Used
in betel) should be infused 108 times with this mantra. Whosoever is offered this supari and eats it, will be under your control. It is best
to take sweet supari packets duly infused and kept with you for use. Mantra "Om Dev namo Hrarye tha tha Swaha" (2) Use of fruits The
mantra shoud be recited ten thousand times to attain siddhi. After than take any good fruit and infuse it with mantra 108 times.
Whosoever will take the fruit will remain under your control. Mantra "Om Hareeng Mohini Swaha" (3) Use of water Rise early in the
morning and after your ablutions purify the water with 7 mantras and with the name of the person required to be brought under your
control. Drink this water. Repeat for 21 days. The person concerned will be under your control. Mantra "Om Chimi chimi Swaha" This
mantra too can be used to control the enemy. Procure 7 red chillies with branch. Light a fire. Recite the above mantra adding name of
the enemy before the word "Swaha" and put one chilly in the fire. Repeat 7 times for 11 or 21 days. For enemy this should be started on
Tuesday or Saturday. (4) Mohammadan mantra Mantra "Eena etevena shetan meri shakal ban Amuk ke pas jana oose mere pass lana
rahi to turi Bahan, par teen san tee talag" Stand naked on the wrong side of the cot, take Gur in your hand and recite 121 times. Keep
Gur under the cot and sleep during the night. In the morning, the Gur should be distributed among the boys. Replace the name of the
lady in place of word Amuk in the mantra. The lady will approach within 7 days. (5) To control husband Ladies can use this mantra to
control their husbands who have gone astray, those who do not cooperate and are our of control. This mantra too can be used to control
enemies, opponents, superiors and others. Mantra "Om namo maharyakshaya Mam Pati me Vashya kuru kuru Swaha" Recite the mantra
108 times duly performing Homa. the articels used in such mantra must be infused with recitation 7 times with above mantra and given
to the husband to eat to control him. (6) Kam Gayatri Mantra This Kam gayatri mantra is most effective. Mantra "Om Manohhavay
Vidahe Kandpye demahi Tantra Kama Parchodyat" Recite this mantra 1.25 lacs times to attain siddhi and to appease Kam Devta. After
that use this mantra for any lady who will be infatuated and remain satisfied under your control. (7) Kamakhya Vashi Karan Mantra A
most effective mantra . This mantra is be recited one lakh times for siddhi. Replace the name of the lady or person instead of word
Amuk in mantra. Mantra "Om Namo Kamakshi Devi Aamuki me Vansham Kuru Kuru Swaha" After attaining siddhi of this mantra use any
of the following methods and articels etc., which can be exorcised 108 times by the above mantra and the desired results are obtained.
(a) Take out dust from all nails of the hands, feet and nose on sunday. Exorcise and then give to lady or any person to eat in bettel leaf.
(b) Make a powder of Kakjanga, Kesar, Mausli and Tagar. Exorcise 108 times with above mantra. Preserve the powder and put on the
forehead of the the lady or any person who will become in infatuated with you. Procure on sunday flowers, leaves root, trunk and
branch of black datura tree or plant. Mix in them kesar, Camphor and Gorochan. Make a powder of all. Exorcise the same 108 times. Put
Tilak on the forehead and go before the lady or any person, who will be subjected to Vashi Karan. --------- JAI GURUDEV Mantra: Aim
For controlling the mind of someone else. The knowledge of tantra is never complete without the knowledge of Shathhkarm, i.e.; Shanti,
Vashikaran, Stambhan, Vidweshan, Uchchatan and Maran. Just reciting the Beej Mantra won't accomplish any of the above; but, will
surely create a favourable environment for you. ######################### Beej Mantras are single character mantras
which are as capable as any bigger mantra. Sankrit is called the language of gods because every character of Devnagari, current script
for Sanskrit, is a Beej Mantra. Beej Mantras are free from all restriction; there are no rules, no rosary or yantra is required and no diksha
is necessary. And best of all, these can be recited mentally anywhere while doing anything. To recite mentally, I imagine to be hearing
the mantra again and again in my own voice. Beej Mantras are available for each deity or god, thus have solution for any situation. The
best example of their power is the Bhuvaneshwari Mahavidya Mantra -'Hreem' which is a Beej Mantra. The method is simple. Pick a Beej
Mantra of your liking or based on the situation, and recite it as much as you can till the problem is solved. You can do it in office, in gym,
in restaurent and even while sleeping. ######################### Good Luck... --------- Hello, This mantra diksha was
given in jodhpur - siddhashram on 10th march, 2009 Effect - Vashikaran + Hypnotism Om sha samohanaeye vasham aanye om fat
Recite - 2 malla everyday for 41 days continous. Take sankalp before doing this. Throw the rossary in flowing river. This works 100%.
Regards, Dhiraj Bhura +91 9769375561 -------- even several of mantras for vashikaran but what i am going to tell u that is absolute
payog of vashikaran. but be careful never misuse it . it's invented by Ravan and even bhrama protect the person but it will be sure that
person will atract if u perform sadhana with full of plerome. chant 10,000 time mantra with Moonga mala, wear red cloths, UDDISH
GUTIKA place on red cloth. || om namo bhagvate uddaamareeshwaraay mohay mohay mili mili thah that || while u chanting the mantra
picture of person to whom u want to attrect place in front of u. and ogal it with full of love. after comlition of sdhana gutika tie with
photo & put in yuor personal box. -------- In my humble opinion, there can be no greater power for vashikarana or accomplishment of
desires than Mahaavisnu, therefore if Lord Krsna does not accomplish a desire, other means will not help. Also i believe that Lord Jesus
is an avataara of Visnu, so you may address Jesus too. To address Lord Krsna, i suggest this form: Ooom! Qr,s,na Qr,s,na Mahaajogin
Vaqtaanaam Avaja~qara Gowinda Paramaananda Sarwam Me Wazam Aanaja. For how to pronounce, please see my signature. If you
use it for one year or maybe less, this mantra will definitely work even if you eat meat, but then you shall suffer the adverse karma from
meat eating together with the benefits from the mantra. Cattle meat may be eaten only from sacrificed animals that have not given milk
for 3 years, according to the Veda. I have used the mantra while i ate meat on days except designated as fasts, and still i had a woman.
When i stopped the mantra (because my woman could not tolerate hearing the name of shrii Krsna even whispered!), then she felt frigid
for me and left me. I have used Shiva's mantras and Devi mantras for years - no use, i got nothing but loss. There r 2 possibilities:
Shaaiva and Shaakta mantras are not powerful, or there is someone who did not allow Shiva or Devi to bring good results. In my
opinion, the latter is true: Shiva and his Consort are really powerful, but there is someone more powerful who did not allow them to give
good results. To sum up, if Mahaavisnu's name does not bring the result for you, nothing will bring it. This is my opinion. Visnu shows
his power by granting desires, but also by rejecting desires. If you have found that there is any name more powerful than Mahaavisnu's
or his avataaraas', please write here, we should not be kept in such ignorance. ____________----- kaam gayatri mantra || om kaam
devaay vidmahe puspbannaay dheemahi tanno anang pracodayat || before u have to perform ast kaamdev pujan chant 5 round of this
mantra on any friday . vashikaran mantra|| om hreem amukam mam vasya vasya sammohanaay hreem om || its method will explain

sudarshanaya vidmahe mahajwaalaya dheemahi tannaschakra prachodayath. this is a very fruitful mantra.if gurudev has said this then it
cant be false.keep faith and perseverence. --------- THE FIRST ONE IS: OM SHAM SAMOHANAY SHAM NAMAH THE SECOND MANTRA IS
OM HREEM OMKUM (REPLACE OMKUM WITH PARTNERS NAME) MAMA VASHIAYA SAMOHA NAIYA HREEM NAMAH --------- Last month
only Gurudev has given shaktipaat diksha called Sampoorn Charachar Sammohan Vashikarn Diksha. The mantra is - Om Sham
Shambhavaay sam sammohanaay poorn charachar vashikaran sham sam om phat swaha It gives results in 21 days (upper time limit). 5
malas daily on moonga or sphatik for 21 days preferably late night. After that daily havan (of at least 1 mala)of til and ghee would
consolidate the gains. --------- Aum HRIM, amuk, vasham-karaay, kuroo-kuroo-svaahaa Call the person's name in the place where
"amuk" is written. Repeat the mantra at 11 times. You can do this 1 or 3 times a day. When you repeat you have to intensely visualize
that you are keeping this person under your control and see his or her face in your visualization. ---------- There is a mantra called
Swamvara parvati mantra that is ment for developing terrific attraction and vasikaran power. You can find it in a postiing in the forum:
Ammachi, by Sesha M.D. Mantripragada. I am cuting and pasting from that post for your convenience.

.................................................. ........................... 1) PARVATHI SWAYAMVARA MANTRA Similar to the Gayathri Mantra, which is
made up of 24 letters, this mantra is very powerful, made up of 48 letters. Mantras are sacred. Hence these should be mastered only
with the help of a Guru. This is most important as correct pronunciation of each word counts a lot in attaining the desired benefit. Those
who cant recite with clarity should propitiate with the help of learned Brahmin scholars. Om Hreem Yoginim Yogini Yogeswari Yoga
Bhayankari Sakala Sthavara Jangamasya Mukha Hridayam Mama Vasamakarsha Akarshaya Swaha / This mantra should be recited 108
times daily for 18 days or 24 days or 48 days depending upon the seriousness of the situation. "O Thou who art always in Union with the
Lord, Master of Yoga, Terrible of Form Heart of all that is living and nonliving, Please give me the power of attraction and fascination, O
Noble One"! 2)Another mantra from posting of Sudershan Joshi on 16- 6-2004 in forum Mantra Tantra vijnana OM! namo sarvaloka
vasikaraya kuru kuru swaha.Repeat it 1900000 times.Try to be vegeterian. 3) Yet another one: From posting of rajkumar_v3, on 21-102004, in forum Mantra Tantra Vijnana. Vashikaran mantras are many and each god and goddess have the power to exert their own
powers to attract. The mantra for Ganesh vashikaran mantra is Om aim hreem shreem kleem gloum gum ganapataye vara varada sarva
janam me vashamaanaya swaha. Similarly instead of sarvajam, u can use any individuals name u may desire to attract. Never misuse
this mantra. Try to sanctify this mantra by reciting for 100008 times and then repeat it daily 108 times with Ganesh yantra in front of
you and do puja by offering flowers and wheat grass and offering incense and fragrances. Akarshan Mantra =>Aakarshay Mahadevi Ram
Mam Priyam Hey Tripure Devdeveshi Tubhyam Dasyami Yanchitam Which word do I replace with the name of the person I want to
attract to me in the Akarshan mantra I have posted above? Is it the word Ram or Mam that I replace the name of the person within the
Akarshan mantra? How many times do I need to chant this mantra to see the successful sidhi I need to achieve my goal with this
mantra? Do I chant it for 40 days for a 108 times a day will that be enough to manifest my goal in attracting the specific person I have
in mind. I will use this mantra no matter what so please don't even think of detering me cause I used the Vashikaran mantra with sweet

Chamunda Mantra to Shut Enemy Mouth


The mouth can more often than not do more damage than the sword. Many people fear those enemies who are likely to destroy their
reputations by spread false and defamatory rumors about them or blackmailers, wanting something in return, for keeping their mouth
shut. The Hindu Mantra Science of remote enemy annihilation includes the Stambhan or Immobilization Tantra, which is known to
remotely remove all kinds of enemies from ones surroundings. In this post is given another one of the Stambhan Mantra and the Tantra
to put it to practical use.
This mantra invokes the Mother Goddess Chamunda Mata, hence Mastery over the Mantra is essential. Siddhi is gained by chanting the
Mantra 100,000 times. While chanting the Mantra, the Sadhak has to do a Smaran [remembrance] of Chamunda Mata.

After gaining Siddhi, the Mantra can be used to shut the mouth of an enemy by the following Tantra A piece of the root of the Palash
Tree [flame of the forest tree] has to be wrapped in a Palm Leaf. Then this wrapped root has to be infused by chanting the Stambhan
Mantra 3 times. Here the word Amuk should be replaced by the enemys name.
After following the steps given above the Sadhak should keep the wrapped root in his hand and go in in front of the enemy, whose
mouth he wishes to shut. The Stambhan Tantra says that the enemy will forget his animosity and turn amicable towards the Sadhak.

Kulachudamani Tantra

Kulachudamani Tantra is a nigama, meaning that instead of Devi asking


questions answered by Lord Shiva (agama), he asks questions answered
Devi, the goddess. In this tantra the cult goddess is Mahishamardini, a D
with some similarities to Durga.

Animal sacrifice also appears to have a place in this tantra, as well as grue
magical matters, including using the bones of a dead black cat to make a
magical powder. Please don't try this at home.
To read the abstract of the text provided in Sir John Woodroffe's Tantrik
Text series (here) you would have little idea of this.

When, under the pseudonym of Arthur Avalon, he produced this series, a


beginning of the 20th century, the fact that an Englishman and a High Co
judge would interest himself in even orthodox Hinduism no doubt caused
eyebrows to rise and lips to be pursed amongst his peers.

As well as including that introduction, we also here provide our translatio


first published in Azoth magazine in the early 1980s.

Although far from being completely happy with this rendition, it does giv
flavour of the content which you would be unlikely to get if you relied jus
the Tantrik Texts abstract. Chapter seven remains to be translated.

The siddhis - or magical powers - play a large part in this text. The main
tantriki rites are called the six acts (shatkarma) of pacifying, subjugating,
paralysing, obstructing, driving away, and death-dealing. But the
Kulachudamani includes others such as Parapurapraveshana, which is the
power of reviving a corpse; Anjana, which lets a sdhaka see through sol
walls; Khadga which gives invulnerability to swords; Khecari, which give
power of flying and Paduka siddhi, magical sandals which take you great
distances, rather like seven league boots.

Certainly, the importance of having a suitable Shakti forms the essence of


instructions Devi gives to Shiva. We see this emphasis over and over aga
throughout the tantra.

Devi here takes the form of Mahishamardini, more popularly known as D


who destroyed the two arch-demons Sumbha and Nisumbha in an epic ba
between the goddess and the throng of demons. It was at this time, accord
legend, that Durga created Kali, by emanating her out of her third eye.

We learn more of Durga's legends and myths from the Kalikapurana, an


influential source in Kaula tantra. The Devi, Mahamaya, appeared as Bha
Kali - identical with Mahishamardini - according to the same text, in orde
slay the demon Mahisha. He had fallen into a deep sleep on a mountain a
had a terrible dream in which Bhadra Kali cut asunder his head with her s
and drank his blood.

The demon started to worship Bhadra Kali and when Mahamaya appeared
him again in a later age to slaughter him again, she asked a boon of her. D
replied that he could have his boon, and he asked her for the favour that h
would never leave the service of her feet again. Devi replied that his boon
granted. "When you have been killed by me in the fight, O demon Mahish
you shall never leave my feet, there is no doubt about it. In every place w
worship of me takes place, there (will be worship) of you; as regards your
body, O Danava, it is to be worshipped and meditated upon at the same ti

this purana -- see Bibliography for details.)

First Patala

Sri Bhairava said: Innumerable are Tripura (tantras), innumerable those o


Kalika, countless those of Vagishvari, numberless the beautiful Kulakulas
known as Matangini, Purna, Vimala, Candanayika, Tripura-Ekajata, Durga
Kulasundari.
Numberless the Vaishnava, Ganapatya, Saura, Shaivite, and the different
doctrines of Shankara.

The highest of the doctrines are the 64 tantras: the Mahasarasvata, Yogini
Shambara, Tattvashambara, the eight Bhairavas, the eight Bahurupas, the
Jnana, the eight Yamalas, the Tantrajnana, the Vasuki, the Mahasammoha

Mata, the Rupikamata, the Sarvaviramata, the Vimalamata, the tantras of
south, west and north, the Niruttara, the Vaisesikajnanatantra, the Sivabal
Arunesa, the Mohanesa and the Visuddhesvara.

O Lovely Hipped One, now speak to me of their essence if you have love

order to know you as guru, you with whom I am one. Even given this,

Mahadeva, my true nature still remains secret.

Devi said: Listen son, to the very plain exposition of the teachings of utm
bliss. I speak of the method relating to the yoga of liberation. This is the o
essence of all tantras, worshipped by all devas, giving every sort of know
secret, giving a clear idea of the essence of enlightenment, free of good o
giver of both enjoyment and liberation, consisting of all paths. Dear son, i
deludes even the wise!

It is of various and numerous meanings and is the goal and refuge of all p
disciples. It is known as the best path according to all the paths, yet is rev
by all doctrines. It should be known only through the best of teachers. It s
be protected and hidden in the heart very carefully, as I did not reveal it to
Vishnu, Dhatra or Ganapati.

Arising at dawn, a sadhaka should bow to a Kula tree. After meditating o


Kulas from the Muladhara to the one thousand petalled lotus, he should
meditate on the gurus.

Then he should meditate on and worship the Kulagurus Prahladanandanat

as being intoxicacted by the nectar of the absolute, whose blissful hearts s
in their eyes, their darkness cut and crushed by their having embraced
Kulashastra, merciful to Kula disciples, complete, compassionate and
effulgent, giving boons and dispelling fear, knowing the essence of all
Kulatantras.

After bowing to the Kulagurus, one should give worship to the Kulamatri

sight of pashus.

They who should reject the Kulanatha, who alone is a Shakta, served by t
Kulas, for them initiation and sadhana is black magic. Because of this, on
should by every effort resort to a Kulina guru. It is said a Kulina is compe
in all vidyas and is able to initiate in all mantras.

Second Patala

Devi said: Dear son, now I will speak of bathing, the vehicle of Kula happ
I have various forms (coloured) black, red, yellow and blue. Whichever p
on the path of Kula goes to bathe, attains my form. Everything, heaven a
hell, originates on earth. After sipping water, strew the Kula place with g

vessel.

After satisfying the Kuladeva, bathe. At first performing resolution, then

the Kula mudra called Ankusha, the Kula should invoke the Kula tirthas (
the water). After drinking the water three times, bathe body three times.

Dedicate the offering to the deva of the Kula tree three times.

Using the Kula water, oblate the devas, the ancestors and the rishis. Again
after meditating on the Kulas, offer water to the Kula devas again. In the
Bhairavi Tantra there are verses relating to this knowledge: Bhairavaya d

Making a forehead mark of the Kula type, sip water again. Pay respect to
Kula pitha and do worship of the Kuladeva.

After satisfying the guardian of the door by suitable song, dance, speech a
forth, one should collect the Kula elements and purify the Kula seat. The
seat duly prepared, then strew the area with suitable pleasant things. Sittin
the Kula seat, and binding the hair, do the ritual of Guru puja.

A person should purify himself, the area of ritual work, and his own body

Various kinds of flowers and different sorts of scents should be present an

A Kaulika should wear all kinds of jewels and gems, and, reciting the roo
vidya, should sprinkle the place with water. All the substances should be
right, while the offering (arghya) should be on the left. The Kula substanc
should be to the west of the devata.

different red materials like rocana, lac, kumkuma, and red sandalwood, on

Folk having gone at night to the cremation ground or to a Kula house and
placing in the centre of flowers and sweet scents the highest Kula thing, s
in the company of Kulas, within the Kulacakra, draw a Kulayantra contai
the name of the object to be accomplished. After first writing one's own n
accomplish the sadhana following the rules of the Kulacara. The sadhaka
should do the sadhana with his own and other Shaktis.
Dear son, now listen to the rules relating to unification with Parashakti.

Embrace one's own partner, who should be very beautiful and very allurin
One should act as the guru to the Kula devotee, and should initiate her int
path of Kula.

(She should) show in her eyes the very blissful essence, be Kula born, be
faithful and very wise, inwardly protective of the guru, with her mouth fu

You should worship her as if she were your own daughter. Then draw on
forehead a Shakti Cakra of three concentric circles, within this writing the
Kamakala mantra. In the centre, using mantra, write the name of the obje

Then pronounce the rishi, metre and root mantra into the ear of your daug
three times in her left ear.

Son, now listen to the sexual embrace in Kula puja. A knower of Kula sho
worship she who is wanton and free from shame, doing the actions accord
to the guidance of the guru. After being initiated, prostrate yourself like a
on the ground.

If, firstly, you do not do limb and avarana puja, then you are not a Kula. A

Third Patala

Now I speak to you of worship at night in one's own Kula. The Shakti sho

bejewelled with gold, smeared with red scents, garlanded with flowers,
perfumed, wearing bright things, very beautiful, wearing lovely clothes, w

On her forehead, draw a beautiful yantra and in this write the object to be
accomplished. Draw the same on her shoulders, arms, breasts and stomac

recitation of the Kulakula mantra, one attains the desired for thing immed

like the devata. Attracted to him in this way, a sadhaka achieves success a

Unless she is initiated and young, how is it possible to accomplish Kulapu


There can be no Kulapuja, dearest, unless she has previously obtained the
mantra. When other than young, dear son, it is as if she were one with the
(?).
In her left ear, recite the mantra while sprinkling her (with Kula nectar).

Mahadeva, now listen. I will expound this mantra to you. Aim Klim Sauh

26 syllables (?). O Deva, purify the Shakti using this mantra.

Brahmin-girl, warrior-girl, merchant-girl, slave-girl, Kulini, daughter of a


barber, washer-girl, yogini; these are the eight girls.

Each woman is equivalent to a Kula maiden. Hold the Kula cakra at a


crossroads, close to a river, at the root of a bilva tree, actually within the
cremation ground, during a feast, in a palace or whatever, O Holder of the
Trident!
Draw, dear son, a great yantra using powdered vermilion, and strew on it
names of the object you want to accomplish!

Use couch grass. Worship according to the rule and enter the Kula using t
essence of Kula. Worship therein according to the due prescription and cr
the Kula using the essence of Kula!

Offering wine within the Kula area, devoted souls should then worship
beautiful young women, duly initiated, wearing (silken) robes, garlands a
forth, giving them food, good milk and all the rest.

To start, give (these maidens) food you have cooked yourself (dear son).
(Examples follow): different sorts of cake, curd, milk, ghee, buttertmilk,
candies. Offer different side-dishes flaboured [for example] with crushed
saffron and essences of variegated sources (drawn from) the art of cooker

Try offering jackfruit, polished cardamoms, washed lemons, pomegranate


different other pleasant fruits [all the while] smearing the maidens with a
variety of scents and perfumes.

Try offering them sandalwood, musk, saffron, fresh green sprouts of palla
borax, blossoms of the Lodhra tree, things from the water, items from the
forest. Bring [your beautiful Shaktis] different jewels, and decorate them
turn - with very precious jewels of different kinds.

Do the worship in a private place, and give offerings and also do purificat
Once [a sadhaka] has caused the Kula amrita to flow, he should bow in fr
the Shaktis.

He should bow to each of the Shaktis, in turn, and should call out their na
starting with the Brahmini. Asking each to take a seat, a sadhaka should m
sure each one has a seat. Then he should give them offerings, water to dri
water for each [beautiful goddess] to wash her toes, honey-flavoured wate
water yet again.

If they are uninitiated, [the sadhaka] should say Hrim to each. O truly
beauteous One, he should feed them in the centre of a pavilion using gold
plates. Then he should recite the hymn.
Om hail to you Mother Devi!
Stainless soul, the essence of Brahma.
Through your compassion remove obstacles and bestow siddhi on me!
Maheshi, giver of blessings!
Devi, the form of supreme bliss!
Through your compassion &c.

Through your compassion &c.
Devi you are the goddess, father and mother both!
You take the place of our father and mother!
Although one, you are many, in the form of the cosmos!
Hail to you Devi, hail!

Fourth Patala

Dear son, my secret originates in simple practice. Those lacking this do n


obtain success even in one hundred koti of births. Folk following the pat
Kula and the Kulashastras are broad minded, from following the path of
Vishnu, patient of insult, and always doing good to others.

One should go to the temple of a deva, or to a deserted place, free of peop


empty place, to a crossroads or to an island. There, one should recite the m
and, having bowed, become one with divinity and free from sorrow.

Bow to Mahakali if you see a vulture, a she-jackal, a raven, an osprey, a h


a crow or a black cat, saying: "O Origin of all, greatly terrifying one, with
dishevelled hair, fond of flesh offering, charming one of Kulachara, I bow
you, Shankara's beloved!"

If you should see a cremation ground or a corpse, circumambulate. Bowin


them, and reciting a mantra, a mantrin becomes happy: "O you with terrib
fangs, cruel eyed one, roaring like a raging sow! Destroyer of life! O mot
sweet and terrifying sound, I bow to you, dweller in the cremation ground

If you should see a red flower or red clothes - the essence of Tripura - pro
yourself like a stick on the ground and recite the following mantra: "Tripu
destroyer of fear, coloured red as a bandhuka blossom! Supremely beauti
one, hail to you, giver of boons."

If you should see a dark blue flower, a king, a prince, elephant, horse, cha
swords, blossoms, a vira, a buffalo, a Kuladeva, or an image of
Mahishamardini - bow to Jayadurga to become free of obstacles. Say: "Ja
Devi! Support of the universe! Mother Tripura! Triple divinity!"

If you should see a wine jar, fish, meat or a beautiful woman, bow to Bha
Devi, saying this mantra: "O destructress of terrifying obstacles! Grace gi
the path of Kula! I bow to you, boon giver adorned with a garland of skul
red clothed one! One praised by all! All obstacle destroying Devi! I bow

you, the beloved of Hara."

Dear son, if a person sees this things without bowing, the Shakti mantra d
not give success.

I all of this I am the most important part, beloved of the Kula folk. All the
Dakinis are my parts. Listen Bhairava! One who has gained success in my
simple yoga cannot be harmed by a Dakini. My devotees abound in wealt
cannot be conquered by Vatukas or Bhairavas.

Whichever Kaula is seen by a young girl or woman, whether he be in vill


city, festival, or at the crossroads, causes her to be filled with longing, her
aching, her eyes darting glances, like a line of bees mad for honey falls on
lotus flower, greedy for nectar, like a female partridge for a cloud, like a c
for her recently born calf, like a female gazelle eager for young shoots of
like jackals for flesh, like a person tortured by thirst who sees water, like
dvamsi (?) at the sight of a lotus fibre, or like an ant greedy for honey.

The sight of such a Kaula, enveloped by the Kulas, causes her lower garm
slip, she becomes mad with lust, and of unsteady appearance.

Seeing her on a couch, her breasts and vagina exposed, one should fall to
feet, and, rising, fall again. One should impart the oral lore to an alluring
female companion - in her feet resides the secret of the act of love. One a
such female companions, with beautiful hips and beautiful breasts, like a
to the Kaula, free from greed or modesty, devoted, patient of heart, sensu
very inner of spirt.

In such a happy Duti, curiosity may suddenly arise, she asking "Dear son,
is to be done or not to be done? Speak!" One should perform sacrifice to t
indwelling Maya and offer the remainder to the Shakti. After this, one sho
excite her and then perform the act of love.

On a Tuesday, in the cremation ground, smeared with Kula vermilion, usi


Kula wood, one should draw a yantra. In the petals write the Canda Mant
Sphrem Sphrem Kiti Kiti twice, and then the ninefold mantra of
Mahishamardini. Outside this, write the mantras of Jayadurga and Shmas
Bhairavi. After writing them, worship Bhadrakali at night, meditating on
Kamakhya, the essence of Kamakala.

The Kulakaulika, naked, with dishevelled hair, should meditate on the


formidable Kali, with her terrifying fangs and appearance, Digambari, wi
garlands of human arms, seated on a corpse in Virasana, in sexual union w
Mahakala, her ears adorned with bone ornaments, blood trickling from he
mouth, roaring terrifyingly, wearing a garland of skulls, her large and swe
breasts smeared with blood, intoxicated with wine, trembling, holding in
left hand a sword, and in her right hand a human skull, dispelling fear and
granting boons, her face terrifying, her tongue rolling wildly, her left ear
adorned with a raven's feather, her jackal servants roaring loudly like the
time, she herself laughing terribly and pitilessly, surrounded by hordes of
fearsome Bhairavas, treading on human skeletons, wholly occupied with
sounds of victorious battle, the supreme one, served by numberless hosts
powerful demons.

After meditating on Kalika, the lord of Kula should then worship her. Un
one enters the other city, Kulasiddhi cannot be achieved. Because this De
gives all success as soon as she is remembered, she is hymned in the three

worlds as Dakshina.

O Bhairava, by reciting her mantra 108 times, one can achieve whatever o
is wished for. After establishing oneself at the crossroads and meditating
Devi in your heart, one should enter the city adorned with the most beauti
sorts of jewels. After meditating on Devi in the four directions, bow to th
Kulaguru and, holding the name of the object of siddhi in your left hand,
pronounce the mantra.

By smearing the eyes with anjana, one may shatter iron locks barring doo
becoming able to enter either stable, warrior's house, Kalika temple, treas
sacred place, and may have sexual union according to will even 100 time
After meditating on Svapnavati Devi, one should enter the pavilion of Ka

Do puja with a yantra, writing the appropriate mantra on it, and reciting it
Devikuta, Oddiyana, Kamarupa, Tata (?) or at Jalandhara or Purna(giri) o
pure ground. Establish cakras in these places and, worshipping Devi, bow
recite her mantra eight, ten, 100 or 1,000 times.

Reciting and offering at such a pitha, one gains the wealth of a treasury. O
pure spot, establish the siddha seat, preparing the protective pedestal and
bowing to the pitha in a pleasant way. Say: "Come, O great one of the for
the vagina! Siddhayoni! Give that which is desired! I will perform Kulapu
with appropriate ritual accessories! Yield to me!"

Becoming like her son, her feet on your head, she yields whatever is wish
for. Repeatedly offer her Kula flowers, scent and food. Dear son, prepare
everything, and after offering and cooking for her, give grain, rice, wine,
flesh, ghee, honey and the other things which bestow success. A sadhaka
should install her in a jar, and then worship the supreme. After meditating
the ishtadevata, the possessor of the path of Kula should feed her.

Dividing a piece of fruit in half, give one to the Kula Shakti, take the othe
yourself, and then eat. If one does not have a young woman as a Shakti,
perform the dismissal using water. After performing the pitha puja, rub ou
yantra, offering then to the ancestors of the place.

Fifth Patala

Shri Devi said: Deva, a sadhaka travelling in dream can enter Kamarupa,
is Kamakhya, the yoni pavilion. After drawing the ultimate cakra, surroun
it with Kula substances, a sadhaka should write round it the named objec
desire.

Making the place of Kama, in the centre of the place of Kama, fashioning
into a funnel-shaped vessel, by Kama one should love Kama, turning Kam
into Kama.

After meditating thus, and reciting a mantra, gazing at the pedestal and so
forth, a possessor of the correct rule should place the father-face into the
mother-face. So, offering cloth, saffron or tambula twice, one may take K
by force (?).

Doing ritual circling and so on according to the due rule, one may then go
forth. If a man should attempt to subjugate women of the circle or protect
property, a sadhaka becomes a fallen sadhaka. An act of black magic caus

O Shankara, a Kulina using this method who intends to steal creates obsta
for himself, there is no doubt of it. Bhutas, pretas, pishachas, rakshasas,
serpents, kinnari, naga maidens, underworld maidens, fairies, bhairavas,
vatukas, and Ganapa create obstacles for those entering the place where
protected women sleep. It causes the death of one's children, creates delus
disease, and uprooting.

They cause different obstacles such as poverty and great anxiety, and loss

the guardians of the directions.

O Deva, one should offer cake, plantain, sweetmeats, milk rice, food, cru
parched grain and jackfruit, giving to Vishnu the supreme food and to Ga
the pithaka (?). A vra should offer sweetmeats, jackfruit, plantain and bla
goat flesh to the Kshetresha, and then recite the mantra.

After reciting, offer a clump of earth and sprinkle water to the ten directio

Around it, make a square of twelve finger breadths. A sadhaka, after mak
this king of yantras, should worship there at night. At night, roaming abou
night, doing Kula puja, there is nothing which cannot be done. A sadhaka
becomes a Kaulika.
At night, establishing Tribhuvaneshvari, and bowing, recite her mantra.
Bathing in the morning, and bowing to guru, devas, ancestors and rishis,
offering oblation to the Shakti, worship in a devoted way.

O Bhairava, by serving a young woman who resembles a prostitute, one g

her grace. Kula sadhakas will know the different meditations by appeal to
Kulachudamani, previously spoken of.

remaining actions. Dearest son! Do not do Kula puja without wine and fle

Brahmins, in acts of subjugation, may offer honey in copper vessels inste

wine is the most excellent thing for yogis. For those for whom wine drink
unsuitable, honey and sweet cakes may be offered.

Sixth Patala

Devi said: Dear son, now I speak to you of the rules of nyasa. One should
invoke Devi as being diffused in the body, then doing nyasa. The best of
sadhakas should first place Devikuta at the top of the head. Draw a yantr
using the previously declared rule, following the Kula path. Bow to the va
pithas and using scent and blossoms worship Devi as Mahabhaga, the ro
Devi, with her attendants.

After reciting the mantra 100,000 times, then establish Oddiyana, then wo
the pitha known as Yoganidra, where one should do puja to the indwellin
ishtadevata 100,000 times. After going to Kamarupa, one should then wo
Katyayani.

At night, reciting a mantra 100,000 times, one should then perform worsh
Kamakhya. Going then to Jalandhara, firstly worship Purneshi. Reciting t
mantra 100,000 times there too, then go to Purnagiri and again do puja an
recite the mantra to Chandi. Entering Kamarupa, firstly worship Kamakh

saying "Devi, highest of the Kulas, in this act I, named such and such, of
gotra such and such and family such and such ask you, the desired godde
bestow the highest boon." If unsuccessful, one should do the previous act
again.

Otherwise, one may worship Mahishamardini in all the pithas. Then she
becomes pleased, and bestows the Kula boon. On reciting the root mantra

becomes a lord of all siddhi. One should go to a Rajavriksha tree, and wo


the ishtadevata at its root, starting worship on a great night. The recitation
should continue over the next three days. Deva, the best of sadhakas gain
fruit of 100,000 pithas by doing this.

Bhairava Maheshvara, if a sadhaka should recite the secret Mahishamardi


root vidya, he may gain at will the siddhis Vetala, Khadga, Anjana and T

Bhairava said: O Deveshi Chandika, if you love me, tell me how to obtain
great siddhi Vetala and the rest.

Devi said: The best of sadhakas, using Nimba wood should, on a Tuesday
midnight, sit in sexual intercourse on a corpse. After digging a pit, he sho
recite the Mahishamardini (vidya) 800,000 times, then offering 1,000 tim
the cremation ground. Taking the ash, smear it on a staff and padukas, go
the cremation ground on a Durga eighth and offering libation there.

Doing puja according to rule on the corpse, a vira should then sit on the c
and recite the mantra 1,008 times. O Natha, after giving animal sacrifice t
mother, he should then recite a mantra over the wood: "Sphrem Sphrem
Mahabhaga Yogini, be lovingly pleased! Protect me with this staff I hold.

Whenever a Kaulika displays the staff and recites the mantra, he can pulv
whatever he wants and can conquer over and over again.

"Mahabhaga. boon giver, may these padukas go, go! May they travel 100
yojanas whenever I wear them!"

Taking copper and making a sword of 50 angulas length, and drawing a y


on it, a person should recite the mantra. Sitting on a great corpse during a
day and reciting the mantra 1,000 times, (a sadhaka) should dig a pit in fr
a Bija tree and do the binding and protection, reciting on a Kula eighth in
cremation ground at midnight. Firstly pleasing (the Devi), he should then
sacrifice in the cremation ground, using the three madhus with bilva leaf.

After the sacrifice, he should offer animal sacrifice to supreme Maya Dev
Mahishamardini. Whosoever gives complete animal sacrifice to the great
Unmukhi gains her favour. Dear son, say: "Take, wielder of the sword!
Terrifying and fanged Maha Kali, true one of formidable form, Kam Im U
make! Kalyani, cut through my enemy!"

If a man should raise and strike with the sword, at the same time reciting
mantra, having cut, having cut and again having cut, he may achieve the a
sadhana.

Otherwise, he should sever the head of a male black cat with one blow, on
Tuesday, at the crossroads, at night, and should bury it with a mantra. Eat
sacrificial food and emitting into a vessel, he should recite the mantra eve
night. Concentratedly reciting 1,008 times in the darkness, he should gaze
the dug-up vessel. Eating sacrificial food during the day, on a river bank,
immersing himself, he should wash it, reciting a mantra.

Dear son, I have spoken to you of opposition, through which a man can
conquer. One should install and worship screaming Kalika, reciting the
inimical Kali mantra 1,000 times. A mantrin then attains success in anjan
there is no doubt about this. A sadhaka, on making a powder of crushed b

sandal, aguru and copper, worshipping according to rule, conquers all.

Kuleshvara, a man, worshipping Devi most attentitively at a Kula place, g


her Kula fish, Kula food and Kula wine. Reciting 1,008 times, a man may
conquer all on earth using the Phut mantra. Even if the target is 100 yojan
distant, he may gain it. It comes to him from wherever it is on earth.

A man can contract his body, entering instantly a cleft, a small window, o
cavity. Dear son, Lord of Kulanathas, unless a man has the Durga or Kali
mantra, the siddhis are concealed, there is no doubt of it.

Mantras are single or strung together syllables. Mantras are used in

rituals, whispered or chanted in combinations and contexts, setting


up patterns of vibrations. One must learn to pronounce them properly
and understand their meaning. Mantra sadhana is very difficult as if
during practice any drawbacks remain, it can inflict losses. Guidance
of a competent guru is quite necessary to attain success.
A sadhak should observe some rules and regulations very strictly
while practicing mantra shakti. He must completely believe in the
shakti and should avoid anger, egoism. He should observe
brahamcharya and should not fear if he sees any miracles during
sadhana. The food of a sadhak should be simple and must not contain
meat, onion, garlic, etc.
One's subconcious mind can help to find the solution through
meditation and recitation of mantras. Continuous sadhana will enable
the sadhak to find solution to all problems, achieve peace of mind and
removal of mental strain.

Asanas During Meditation

The posture arousing mantra shakti is known as asana.


Siddh Asana : This Asana is very useful to acquire Sidhi. Even fat
persons can practice it. Place one heel at the anus and keep the other
heel at the root of generative system. The feet or legs should be so
arranged that the ankle joints should touch each other. Hands should
be placed straight on the knee joints. Sit for 15 minutes with closed
eyes concentrating on God. This asana is useful in curing rheumatism
and keeps the mind and body in order. The eyes must be focussed if
not closed, on the space between eyebrows (Trikuti).
Padma Asana : Place the right foot on the left thigh and then
carefully bring the left foot on the right thigh. This is the physical
position for the spiritual process. One must press the tongue against
the teeth and chin against heart. The sight should be focussed on the
tip of the nose. Breathing should be slow. It destroys diseases.
Pranayam : Pranayam removes all diseases, purifies the Nadis,
steadies the mind in concentration, improves digestion and increases
the appetite. It helps awaken the Kundalini. Sit in Padma or Siddh
asana. Close the right nostril with the thumb. Draw in the air very
slowly through the left nostril. Then do it like wise with the right
nostril. Retain the air as long as you can comfortably. Then exhale
very very slowly, through the nostril after removing thumb or finger.
Do twenty rounds in the morning and twenty in the evening. Increase
it gradually.
Trataka : This involves steady gazing at a particular point or object
without blinking to increase concentration. It is a very effective
method to control the mind, improve the eyesight, and develop will
power. It can be done by concentrating one's attention on a black or
white dot on the wall, a picture or on Om,etc.

Pooja : Deva or Deity should be kept in one's mind while reciting the
mantra. Each mantra has a tremendous force and draws maximum
benefit. This can be performed in three ways: 1. Vaikhari (Verbal) by
speaking loudly. 2. Upamsu (Whispering). 3. Mansik (Mental).

Lights In Meditation

Various lights are manifested during meditation.In the beginning a


bright light of the size of the pin point will appear in the forehead in

when eyes are closed. These lights appear in mental space, and are
tantric lights having it's specific colors. Frequently it is combination of
white and yellow but red and blue lights are rarely seen. Initially
small balls of light are seen which later become dazzling lights.
The lights become stable with advancement of meditation. Also at
higher stages of meditation figures as sadhus or other physical forms
are seen in stable light.One should not pay much attention to these
figures and should concentrate on the ultimate goal only. These are
simply to make one convience that there is existence of God and
super physical and meta physical realities. This is 'sadhana shakti'.
If carried out with faith, one can achieve marvellous results, get
siddhi and can benefit both the oneself and the mankind.

Astrological Remedies for Back Pain


Those unfortunate people who are suffering from this ailment consider chronic back pain as a curse. Such people are can never be able
to sit comfortably without experiencing pain and discomfort in the lower back. Women are more prone to this ailment than men as
pointed out earlier in the post where an Indian paranormal remedy for removing back pain in women was given; you can read that postHere.
The remedies for relieving back pain given here can also be practiced by both men and women suffering from chronic back pain. This
remedy is of an astrological nature. Saturn is the planet, which is considered responsible for the ailment of back pain, and hence it is
necessary to pacify an adverse and malefic Saturn in the horoscope.
Keeping an energized Shani Yantra on the body and chanting a mantra of Shani is believed to be helpful to those suffering from
unbearable back pain. Wearing a ring of Neelam [Blue Sapphire], the gem ruled and governed by Saturn is also believed to be helpful in
relieving back pain.
Along with this, the juice of the plant Gorakhmundi, botanical name - Sphaeranthus Indicus can be applied to the paining back on a
Saturday, which is the weekly day of Shani. The Gorakhmundi is a widely used healing herb in traditional Indian medicine, including
Ayurveda.
Another simple Indian paranormal remedy is to keep a dried piece of the root of the Peepal tree[ Sacred Fig tree] wrapped in a piece of
black colored cloth, under the pillow of the person suffering from back pain.
I hope I have given enough choices to those having chronic back pain; you can, if you so wish practice any one or more of these
remedies.

Peepal Tree Worship for Laxmi Blessings


It is said in the Shastras that the Goddess of Wealth and Abundance blesses the Peepal Tree with her presence on the day of Purnima
[Full Moon Day]. Hence, worshipping the Peepal Tree [Sacred Fig] Tree on this day will bear fruit in not only finance and money related
matters, but also help resolve problems related to personal, marital and domestic issues.
In this post, I have written about a simple form of worship of the Peepal Tree to be conducted on the occasion of Purnima.
The Sadhana is extremely simple, all that has to be done is to water the Peepal Tree at 10.00 Oclock in the morning and chant a
small prayer to Laxmi Mata to bless you and resolve your problems. The time mentioned here is extremely important, as it is the most
auspicious time to worship the Peepal Tree on Purnima.
All those wishing to perform this simple form of worship, please keep in maing that cleanliness and hygiene are qualities valued by
Laxmi, Hence, have a bath and wear clean clothes while performing the Laxmi Sadhana. Ladies, wishing to perform this Laxmi Sadhna,
should take care to avoid it during the period of their Monthly Cycle.

Mantra for Peepal Tree


The Peeplal Tree; Sacred Fig or the Asvattha in Sanskrit, has had its own special place in the Hindu Religion since ancient times. Devotees will note that this tree is
invariably found in the vicinity of a temple.

This tree is also said to be the symbol of Vishnu; the Protector of humanity. This is the reason it has the qualities of knowledge, wisdom, health, wealth, enlightenment and
knowledge attributed to it.

The worship of the Peepal Tree is said to be the same as worshipping Vishnu himself. If you worship Vishnu, you will automatically incur the blessings of Laxmi. This will
tell you how auspicious and important, Peeple worship is considered in India. You can also find more information - Here.

A specific Mantra for the worship of this tree is given here. White Sesame Seeds [Safed Til] are mixed in some Milk and then this Mantra has to be offered to the trunk of
the tree. This Sadhana is performed while chanting the Mantra all the time with devotion and sincerity.
A same mantra with a slight variation is posted Here.

Vashikaran by Physical Relations Mantra


The Kmashastra is the ancient Indian erotic text believed to be the last word in anything to do with love, desire and physical relations
between man and woman. This text is said by some Tantra scholars to be influenced by the greatest physical relationship ever, the one
between Shiva and Parvati. The Vashikaran Mantra given in this post is said to put a most powerful love spell on a woman during the
course of a physical act of Lovemaking.
According to the erotic text the Kmashastra, the degree of desire present in a woman is eight times more than that of a man and hence
it takes a lot of effort to satisfy a woman to love and desire a man only through a physical act.
The Kaama

Vashikaran Mantra given here has to be chanted in the mind by the man with full concentration before and during the

course of a physical act with a woman. Doing so is said to put the woman under a strong Vashikaran Spell of love and affection.

Mantra to have a Darshan of Hanuman


Hanuman Darshan, meaning a vision, sighting or apparition of Hanuman, is the ultimate goal of any devote worshipper of Hanuman.
There are many Tantric Sadhanas prescribed for the lifelong Hanuman Bhakts, aspiring to have a vision of Hanuman. However, most of
them fail to achieve success, as the Hanuman Darshan Sadhana, involves a lot of courage, faith, dedication and only, a handful are
believed to have succeeded.
One of the most important things is Brahmacharya, meaning celibacy, and celibacy here means not only physical absenteeism from any
kind of physical sexual activity, but also total control over the mind and not letting the thoughts stimulate the senses towards any kind
of sexual desire. In short, the Brahmacharya should not be a voluntary suppression of sexual desires, but total control over the senses.
Only such a person can succeed in having a Darshan of Hanuman.
A simple Hanuman Darshan Hetu Mantra Sadhana is given here in this post, it is uncomplicated, but the most difficult thing to succeed is
mentioned above. The Sadhak having a burning desire to have a Darshan of Hanuman should practice this Hanuman Mantra
Sadhana under a Peepal tree [Sacred Fig tree]. He should keep a fast on Tuesdays. That is all that is required.
The Hanuman Mantra, which is prescribed for the Mantra Japa, is given below. It is one of the more popular of the Hanuman Mantras
and also one of the more effective ones.

the Indian state of Kerala.[1] The Cheraman Masjid is said to be the very first mosque in India, built in 629 AD by Malik lbn Dinar. It is believed
that this mosque was first renovated and reconstructed in the 11th century AD. Many non-Muslims conduct initiation ceremonies to the world of
letters of their children here.[1]

History[edit]

Kerala Vyasan Kunhikuttan Thampuran is of the opinion that an ancient Buddha vihar was gifted to the Muslims to establish a mosque.[1][dubious
discuss]

Since ancient times, trade relations between Arabia and the Indian subcontinent were active. Even beforeIslam had been established in

Arabia, Arab traders visited the Malabar region, which was a major link between the ports of Southand Southeast Asia. With the advent of Islam,
the Arab merchants became carriers of the new religion and they propagated it wherever they went.[2] Cheraman Perumal, the Chera king, went
to Arabia where he met the Prophet and embraced Islam and changed his name to Tajuddin.[3] From there he had sent letters with Malik Ibn
Dinar to his relatives in Kerala, asking them to be courteous to the latter.[1] According to Burnell he was a contemporary of Islamic Prophet
Muhammad.[4]

Belief goes that a group of Arabs led by Malik Bin Deenar and Malik bin Habib arrived in north Kerala and constructed a Masjid at Kodungalloor,
naming it after their contemporary Cheraman Perumal.[5]

The mosque has an ancient oil lamp which always burns and which is believed to be more than a thousand years old. People of all religions
bring oil for the lamp as offering. Like most mosques in Kerala, this mosque allows entry for Non-Muslims.[citation needed]. The then president of
India Abdul Kalam is among the notable visitors to this mosque.

Enemy died mantra


Enemy died mantra, that is used to kill someone or to give troubles
equivalent to death is known as Maran Mantra. These mantras are
generally used to take revenge. Maran mantras are prohibited in its
common uses. These are used as ultimate weapons to destroy or to
severely punish the enemy. These mantras are basically used in selfprotection against such bad supernatural powers or powerful enemies
whom we cannot defeat in general. Someone who is supposed to kill by a
heavy bad supernatural power can use it to destroy him/her using Maran

humanity using evil ways, may use maran mantra to destroy his enemy to

Powerful Black Magic Love Spells


Powerful Black Magic Love Spells is stronger than white magic because it is power hungry. Having access to both good and evil (black and white
magic), means the magician makes himself a god, white alone is not enough. A magician must have mastery of everything, if he is to succeed.
Powerful Black Magic Love Spells is the most potent power of all occult forces. If you have a problem you are struggling to solve, I can cast a
Powerful Black Magic Love Spells spell that will work, unlike white magic that at the most only slightly influences a situation in your favour. White
magic usually fails because the problem it is trying to solve is normally bigger and more powerful than the white spell, whereas Powerful Black
Magic Love Spells will not take no for an answer, it overpowers all obstacles, it dominates a situation and takes complete control.
When a magician casts a Powerful Black Magic Love Spells spell, the power is unbreakable and results are destined, whereas with white magic the
power is not certain, many things can break it up, such has fear, doubt, worry and lack of faith - Powerful Black Magic Love Spells is the reverse of
white magic, it annihilates anything that gets in its way.

Love Problem Solution
strological signs represent 12 equal segments or divisions of the zodiac. According to astrology, celestial phenomena govern human activity on the
principle of "as above, so below", so that the twelve signs are held to represent twelve basic personality types or characteristic modes of expression.
There are "sun" signs and "moon" signs, which both depend on the date of birth of the person.

The zodiac sign is divided into twelve sections, called signs. The first sign is Aries, followed by Taurus, then Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra,
Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces. Each sign is said to represent specific characteristics. Signs are also divided by elements and
modalities. Signs are also ruled by planets and are associated with a house.

The zodiac is divided into 12 sections, called Sun signs by astrologers. Each sign is identified by unique characteristics. The Sun sign in astrology is
said to represent a persons personality, their identity, ego or basic mode of expression. It is one of the most important factors in a persons chart and
most people will identify with their sun sign descriptions to some extent. The strength of each person Sun Sign can only be determined by looking at
chart as a whole.

Various approaches to measuring and dividing the sky are currently used by differing systems of astrology, although the tradition of the Zodiac's
names and symbols remain consistent. Western astrology measures from Equinox and Solstice points (points relating to longest, equal and shortest
days of the tropical year) , while Jyotish or Vedic astrology measures along the equatorial plane (sidereal year). Precession results in Western
astrology's zodiacal divisions not corresponding in the current era to the constellations that carry similar names, while Jyotish measurements still
correspond with the background constellations.

In Indian astrology, the twelve signs are associated with constellations, while in Chinese astrology and Western Astrology there is no connection
with constellations, as it is simply the line of the equator that is divided into twelve equal segments.

Astrology is not an illusion but a specific branch of Science to study upon the planetary positions and their effects on humans life. There are various
branches of Indian astrology such as Vedic Astrology, Tantra astrology, Mantra astrology, Lal Kitab, Kali Kitab and Ravan sahinta etc. Astrology is
the ancient science in which calculations are done to predict the impact of different - different planetary situations on ones life and with different
remedies it can also change the rigorousness of these impacts on ones life like with astrological remedies the impact of good can be increased and the
impact of bad can be decreased; so we can say that Astrology can solve various problems of life including love, relationship and marriage.Love
Problems It is proved from ancient times that love is the most important part of life. Without a perfect love relationship every living being is
incomplete. Every one of us dreams of having a happy and prosperous life. It is only possible when we have a perfect life partner. Astrology gives you
the power and ability to decide and search a perfect partner in true sense. Astrology has all the proofs that the results brought forth are genuine. Life
becomes a mess in absence of perfect match. The small mistakes made in the beginning get more speculative as the time passes. It is very necessary to
spot the misapprehension and correct it in time. Astrology has got many precise and trustful way of getting out such love problems.

Love is indefinable feeling, means love is unconditional. It is a true feeling which is not expressed by words. This is only to be feeling and there is lots
of way to define love and every way says something different about it. Now days this holy name is used as fantasy when they know there is no life
without love.
Life is successful when you have love in life. But in todays time many of us get betrayed by their loved one, some are unable to express their feelings,
some wants their ex love back in life when they realize their mistake. So precisely we all have problem regarding to love in life and due to these
interruptions, it affects studies, business and relations.
Love is really very holy word which in really defines the meaning of life. Because everyone want to get it in their life. Sometimes it is really very
difficult for an individual to get it. This compels them to take wrong decision towards life. If one having problem in life regarding love then they can
take advice from astrologer. This is quite typical to get true love in life and also to get the one whom you love too much. In this situation astrologer
Pandit Mukesh Gaur is prove to be a right person for provide you best solution of love problem. So to get your love back and get all the solution
regarding to love problems we provide solution of these type of problem and give a genuine consequence to the client.
Love: this four letter word control our entire life. Nobody knows how and when he will fall in love with somebody. Blessed are those who get their
love. but what about those who cannot? Life ceases for them, the time stops moving, they are suddenly halted at particular point of time. Life
becomes a burden for them. Unsuccessful love breaks havoc on ones life.

Mantra to have a Darshan of Hanuman


Hanuman Darshan, meaning a vision, sighting or apparition of Hanuman, is the ultimate goal of any devote worshipper of Hanuman.
There are many Tantric Sadhanas prescribed for the lifelong Hanuman Bhakts, aspiring to have a vision of Hanuman. However, most of
them fail to achieve success, as the Hanuman Darshan Sadhana, involves a lot of courage, faith, dedication and only, a handful are
believed to have succeeded.
One of the most important things is Brahmacharya, meaning celibacy, and celibacy here means not only physical absenteeism from any
kind of physical sexual activity, but also total control over the mind and not letting the thoughts stimulate the senses towards any kind
of sexual desire. In short, the Brahmacharya should not be a voluntary suppression of sexual desires, but total control over the senses.
Only such a person can succeed in having a Darshan of Hanuman.
A simple Hanuman Darshan Hetu Mantra Sadhana is given here in this post, it is uncomplicated, but the most difficult thing to succeed is
mentioned above. The Sadhak having a burning desire to have a Darshan of Hanuman should practice this Hanuman Mantra
Sadhana under a Peepal tree [Sacred Fig tree]. He should keep a fast on Tuesdays. That is all that is required.
The Hanuman Mantra, which is prescribed for the Mantra Japa, is given below. It is one of the more popular of the Hanuman Mantras
and also one of the more effective ones.

THE GRACE OF SIDDHA 61 DARSHAN OF HANUMAN


Posted on May 29, 2014 by GnanaBoomi 2 Comments
The Grace of Siddha series can be read here.

These are not stories. They are real incidents. Read through
these and do reflect if anywhere, anything in these series is
resonating with your own self. Do you feel any of these telling
anything to you? Do you feel yourself that any of the phrase is
a reflection of yours? Is there an answer to you in these?!

I was wondering if I am in this earth or have reached


another world. Such wondrous things were happening on the
hilltop in that scorching heat. No trees, plants or creepers
around the Rana Mandalam mountain where Hanumans
statue was present and it was around 1 PM with the heat at its
peak. Suddenly, a cool breeze sweptthrough and the heat
disappeared.
A divine aroma of enchanting flowers, sandalwood,
jasmine, civet perfume, marikozhundhu (southernwood)
combined together, filled the air. In the middle of a garden if
one experiences the bliss of water droplets scattering over, the
same experience was felt. Where was this cool breeze hiding
all this while, one wouldnt know and it began floating. My
mind became hasty while I was chanting Sri Rama Jayam. At
that time
I was touching the holy feet of Shri Hanuman, the heat felt
there earlier had disappeared. It was as if I was touching an
ice cube. I was surprised and I opened my eyes.
Right in front of my eyes, Shri Hanuman stood, in flesh and
blood. I felt a current amounting to thousands of voltage
passing in to me through the feet I was touching.It was not a
statue of Hanuman I saw, it was He, Hanuman Himself!
His eyes looked at me with His hands showing the mudra of
blessing (Ashirwadh), with His face glimmering with

Karunya. I looked at Him upwards with my eyelids stopped


blinking. He appeared to be breathing in a slow and steady
manner.

Thank you Vishnu, for this wonderful art!

It lasted for just two minutes, such a marvelous darshan. What


was the current like sensation that passed through me from
His feet? I do not know till date. When I touched the feet
again, it had turned rocky. Within five minutes, the heat of
Rana Mandalam was back and the breeze was not to be felt.
Is this some sort of magic, I pinched myself and I was
immensely pleased that it was real. It is indeed a miraculous,
blissful Deiva Darshan. Aha! How blessed I am! I thought. I
conveyed my earnest gratitude and thanks to my parents who
are the source of this, particularly to my Mother. I prostrated
in front of the holy feet ofHanuman with utmost devotion and
thanked Shri Agastya Muni heartfully and opened the Jeeva
Ndi.
O the one who had the blessing of having the darshan of
Shri Hanuman, you shall be henceforth called asHanumath
Dsan. With such a rare darshan, you have got the rarest of
the blessings in your life. For those who are here, wont
understand even if told about this mountain. For incidents that
happened long back, no one would believe that this

Mahodhara Mountain is an importantreason. They may say


that it is a cooked up story and ask for proof. Mad people!
They only talk that way. But what you got, is a
Anandha Darshan The Maha Muni gave a brief
explanation.
I did not feel like getting out of that place. I even thought of
staying there for the rest of my life. To have the darshan of
Hanuman in this Kali Yuga, is indeed prominent among the
miracles of the world. I have committed so many sins
knowingly or unknowingly. Still, the Maha Muni had shown
me the darshan of Hanuman. What else do I want?
I do not know for how long I was seated there. The scorching
heat began to come down. Without the mind for getting out
from there, I looked at Hanuman again with a pouring heart
and thought of starting from there.
A flash occurred in me!
I took out hundred and one rupee from my bag at once and
placed it beneath Hanumans feet and placed small stones on
all four corners so as to prevent it from flying away prayed
earnestly and began to descend.
I did not notice even a single person till I got down. I looked
around but found no one. I went to the Ram Temple again.
There wasnt any sign of anyone coming over or have lit up a
lamp in the Garbha Gruha or offered anything.
I did not feel thirsty or hungry but in fact was doubly charged
and getting down faster. I went near the water body again and
found the liquor pot in the same place as it was. I drank the
water as much as I could and it tasted like Devamrutha.
I came down around 6 or 6.30 to Rana Mandalam. I was
curious if anyone would talk about the Hanuman on the
hilltop. I longed for any additional information about it. Once
I had had the darshan of Shri Hanuman, the energy I felt

inside my body had transformed in to an ultimate briskness. I


felt everything will happen great with thegrace of God.
Where was I, what was I doing, what am I going to do,
nothing I felt. Somehow, I came back home in the train. Once
I reached, there was a pleasant surprise awaiting for me when
my Mother showed me a money-order receipt.
It had my name, address and marked the receipt of the 101
rupees I had kept, all written in Telugu. Right below that,
Rama Anjaneya Temple Ranamandalam, it said!
The experience I had in Mantralaya and Ranamandala
mountain, the Divya Darshan of Hanuman I had, receiving the
receipt for the money I had kept as an offering the very next
day I was explaining with so much of emotion only to find
that no one believed them completely, including my Mother.
We believe in Agastyas Jeeva Ndi. But it is hard to believe
in such an experience of deiva darshan, it is difficult to digest
many a people tell me this.
Its your power of imagination! In this Kali Yuga, the
Almightly appearing just like that? For that, are you a person
who is immersed in pooja and spiritual practices? All those
great souls who are waiting for such a darshan, you got it is it?
All these are just sweet lies of yours some spiritualistic
rationals expressed this openly as well.
Were very glad to know that Agastya Muni is orchestrating
such miracles. But how is it fair to show all these just for you?
Even I have seen the Ndi in so many places. They all ask for
the thumb impression to first search for the appropriate
suvadi. Even then the sayings are in form of literature Tamil.
But your Ndi is so verydifferent and so I just cannot believe
this, I cant! somerelatives say so.
Dont tell anyone that such things happened. Either you must
have gone mad or that you are cheating others in the name of
Agastya Ndi. Whats the matter with you? some opined.

You arent making money out of this Ndi. Then why are
you searching for such advertisements for yourself in the
name of Prahladha, Ragavendra or Hanuman? Your name will
be spoiled out of this my friends said this.
Above all, my Mother asked me: You mentioned of
Agastya Muni saying that it was because of me that you got
the darshan of Hanuman. But for about forty years, I have
been writing Sri Rama Jayam everyday. He had to give
darshan to me. Why didnt this happen?
Out of all those, what my Mother said struck hard in me. I do
not know completely about Agastya Jeeva Ndi. Why did it
come to my hands? For how long will I be reading it? The rare
chances that I got, why didnt those who came for the reading
get? Why is this?
If whatever Agastya Muni had said happens just the way it is,
then its fair enough, everyones happy. But if it did not, they
feel that the words of the Almighty Himself has gone wrong.
Whats the reason behind this? Whose mistake is this? All
such thoughts used to arise in me in the beginning when I had
begun to read the Ndi.
At times, I had been in situations where I could not even
share what I came to know from the Nadi and feel happy.
Why cant I be normal as others? Why did the Ndi come to
me? From what I read out sometimes spoiled my name and
people began to look at me differently. But when my own
mother looked at me like that, I felt I should just drop the Ndi
in the river.
All the happiness of Rana Mandalam had gone. I wanted to
ask this to Agastya Muni Himself but the following days were
all Ashtami, Navami, Bharani or Karthigai and so I had to
remain silent.

On a Brahma Muhurtha time (between 4.30 AM to 6.00 AM


everyday is referred to as Brahma Muhurtha), I prayed and
opened the Agastya Jeeva Nadi.
On grieving about the mother not having the darshan of
Hanuman, you thought of throwing the Ndi in to the river.
This is like insulting Myself. Leave alone this thought! It is not
that the darshan of Hanuman has to happen in Rana Mandala
mountain. Even at home, if one offers his prayers even within
the mind, He will appear. Everyone knows about it. But not
only for your mother, allthose who spoke ill of you, all those
rationalists will have a chance of having the darshan of
Hanuman in just ten days. Not only that, your mothers health
has started deteriorating. She has been praying to Lord Rama
all these days. If We Agastya, the foremost of Siddhas think of
calling her along with you to Rana Mandalam to have the
darshan of both Sri Rama and Hanuman, they both would
agree and will bestow their grace. But thinking of her health,
We left it as it is.
For her, Hanumans darshan will be given indirectly, soon.
She will attain the golden feet of Sri Rama before Rama
Navami. For her, where is the next birth? Sri Agastya gave
this detailed narration.

Hanuman Jis Darshan, Experience Shared By Devotees

Hare Krishna

Lord Hanuman is considered an ideal of force, power, energy, wisdom, service and devotion to God. That is why in religious scriptures, he is also called as
Sakalgunnidhan. Simply put, Lord Hanuman is immortal.
In Shri Hanuman Chalisa, Goswami Tulsidas has written Charo Jug Pratap Tumhara, Hai Prasidh Jagat Ujiara. It is clear from this line that Lord Hanuman has been
present as a troubleshooter in every age in some form or the other to protect the universe. These things about Lord Hanuman create peoples faith and reverence in him.

Hanuman Ji is Immortal and Alive


Lord Ram had blessed Hanuman with the boon of being Chiranjeevi (immortal till the end of Kaliyug).
In her previous life, Sri Hanumanjis mother was Punjikasthala and she was cursed to become a female monkey in next life a curse could only be nullified if she gave
birth to a reincarnation of Sri Shiva. She was reborn as Anjana and performed many yaghs to please Sri Bhagwan Shiv who finally granted her that boon.
Lord Rama Himself said to Sri Hanuman, I am greatly indebted to you, You did marvellous, magnanimous deeds. You do not want anything in return. Sugriva has his
kingdom restored to him. Angada has been made the crown prince. Vibhishana has become king of Lanka. But you have not asked for anything at any time. You threw
away the precious garland of pearls given to you by Sita, not finding my name in it. How can I repay My debt of gratitude to you? I will always remain deeply indebted to
you. I give you the boon of everlasting life. All will honour and worship you like Myself. Your murti will be placed at the door of My temple and you will be worshipped and
honoured first. Whenever My histories and leelas are recited or glories sung, your glory will be sung before Mine. You will be able to do anything, even that which I will not
be able to!
Hanuman Ji is still alive and seen by many Saints and Sages in human form or his original avatar.

Ram Bhakt Hanuman Jis Darshan In Human Form


Amar Singh Yadav Ji made revelation on people who got darshan of Sri Ram Bhakt Hanuman Ji. One day my gurudev, Sri Swami Girdhari Lal Bhaktamal, went with a
group of his disciples to the temple of Gore Dau ji on Parikrama Marg in Vrindavan. A religious ceremony was being held, and during the course of a reference to
Hanuman ji, an idea flashed in my mind. Everyone says that Hanuman ji is immortal but nobody says that they have ever seen him. It is natural if a dead person is not
seen, but it is strange that an immortal one has not been seen by anyone. I expressed my thoughts to the swamis, but their answers did not satisfy me.
My gurudev asked my fellow disciples to go to Neeb Karori Babas ashram to have Hanuman jis darshan. On their return he asked me to go as well. I saw a beautiful
temple just in front of the entry to the ashram, but I did not see a murti of Hanuman ji there. Sitting comfortably in the center of the room, facing the open doorway, was a
large man wearing a dhoti and a blanket. I assumed that he was the manager of the ashram and that he was waiting for the murti to be brought so that it could be
installed. On my return I told Guru Maharaj everything that I had seen. My fellow devotees, who had returned from the temple, expressed their surprise that I had not seen
the huge murti of Hanuman ji in the temple. Gurudev said, It was the grace of Hanuman ji that he gave you darshan in human form.

A few years later I was visiting my brother R.S. Yadav and saw a photograph in his house of the same man as I had seen in Baba Neeb Karoris ashram. He looked
exactly the same and was dressed in the same way. I pointed to the photograph and told my brother that I had seen him somewhere before. He was very happy to hear
the full account of my experience in 1984 and went on to tell me that the photograph was of Baba Neeb Karori, who people recognize as an incarnation of Hanuman ji. He
added that Baba left his body in 1973 and that the huge murti of Hanuman ji had been installed in that temple sometime in 1970.
My brother also narrated two similar experiences of his friend, Brihaspatidev Triguna Vaidya, another devotee of Baba Neeb Karori. On 24 September 1973 Triguna ji
went to Babas ashram in Jaunapur, Delhi, to have prasad on the thirteenth day after Mahasamadhi. After bowing before Hanuman jis murti, he raised his head and saw
Baba standing there in place of the murti. He was astonished at the sight and offered pranaam again. When he looked up the second time, he saw Hanuman jis murti.
The second incident took place sometime after 1976. Triguna ji went from Delhi to visit Kainchi and stood outside the big marble temple, in which he saw a huge murti of
Hanuman. He did not know that he was standing outside Babas temple. For as long as he stood there, he had the darshan of Hanuman ji and not Baba. On returning to
Delhi, he told my brother about the big marble temple with the murti of Hanuman ji. My brother told him that, in reality, Baba Neeb Karoris murti was in that temple. These
events completely removed my doubts.

Nilkantvarni Met Hanuman Ji Personally


Its is incident of 17th century during Great Rajmata Ahilyabai Holkar Jis regime. Rajmata was very brave and noble queen, she consumed her own property inherited
from forefathers on charity works for her Kingdom. Her personal views on charity can be seen here.

In one of the leelas of Nilkanthvarni, he was being pushed into the river Saryu by Kaushidatta. Nilkanthvarni swam down the river came out on the opposite side some
twenty four miles away. He walked for three days through the wild forest, barefooted and without food and water. Nilkanthvarni wondered timelessly and soon fainted from
exhaustion. After opening His eyes he saw a river shimmering with the reflection of the setting sun. He bathed in the fresh, clean water, prayed and then sat down to rest.
Night soon fell and Nilkanthvarni went into Samadhi. At this time Hanumanji came in child form to have darshan of Nilkanthvarni. Meanwhile, a demon called Bhayrav and
his fellow demons were roaming the forest in search of food. They spotted a helpless child from a distance and thought that He would be easy prey to satisfy their hunger.
As Nilkanthvarni was still in a trance, Hanumanji saw Bhayrav and his compatriots, stealthily approaching Nilkanthvarni with their mouths watering at the prospect of a
good feed. Realising their intentions, Hanumanji caught them and beat them with his mighty mace and tail. The demons retreated, squealing in pain and Hanumanji went
back to sit near Nilkanthvarni.

Morning came and Nilkanthvarni came out of his trance. He saw Hanumanji and knowing the events of the previous night, he thanked Ram Bhakt for saving him. Whilst
Nilkanthvarni carried out his morning routine and prayers, Hanumanji gathered fruit and berries from the forest for Nilkanthvarni. Nilkanthvarni ate this offering with great
satisfaction. Being very humble and always ready to protect Shri Vishnu Bhakts, Hanumanji requested Nilkanthvarni to call upon him at any time of need so he could have
an opportunity to serve Him and seek His divine blessings.
Also check How Hanuman Ji created the Bermuda Triangle which is still mystery for the world.

Hanuman Ji gave Darshan to Tulsidas Ji


This incident occurred in 15th century.
Tulsidas hints at several places in his works, that he had met face to face with Hanuman and Rama. The detailed account of his meetings with Hanuman and Rama are
given in the Bhaktirasbodhini of Priyadas. According to Priyadas account, Tulsidas used to visit the woods outside Varanasi for his morning ablutions with a water pot. On
his return to the city, he used to offer the remaining water to a certain tree. This quenched the thirst of a Preta (a type of ghost believed to be ever thirsty for water), who
appeared to Tulsidas and offered him a boon. Tulsidas said he wished to see Rama with his eyes, to which the Preta responded that it was beyond him. However, the
Preta said that he could guide Tulsidas to Hanuman, who could grant the boon Tulsidas asked for. The Preta told Tulsidas that Hanuman comes everyday disguised in
the mean attire of a leper to listen to his Katha, he is the first to arrive and last to leave.

That evening Tulsidas noted that the first listener to arrive at his discourse was an old leper, who sat at the end of the gathering. After the Katha was over, Tulsidas quietly
followed the leper to the woods. In the woods, at the spot where the Sankat Mochan Temple stands today, Tulsidas firmly fell at the lepers feet, shouting I know who you
are and You cannot escape me. At first the leper feigned ignorance but Tulsidas did not relent. Then the leper revealed his original form of Hanuman and blessed
Tulsidas. When granted a boon, Tulsidas told Hanuman he wanted to see Rama face to face. Hanuman told him to go to Chitrakuta where he would see Rama with his
own eyes.
At the beginning of the Ramcharitmanas, Tulsidas bows down to a particular Preta and asks for his grace (Ramcharitmanas, Doha 1.7). According to Rambhadracharya,
this is the same Preta which led Tulsidas to Hanuman. Tulsidas Ji is the composer of the great Hanuman Chalisa which is very powerful source of generating positive
energy.

Hanuman Jis Darshan in Vedic Texts and Vishnus Leela


Everyone knows about Hanumanji and the major contribution by him, around 2 million years ago, during the Sir Rams exile and his support in battle with Ravan. After the
war, and after reigning for several years, the time arrived for Rama to depart to his heavenly abode. Many of Ramas entourage, decided to depart with him including
vanaras like Sugriva. However, shunning the heavens, Hanuman requested to remain on earth for as long as Ramas name is venerated by people. Sita accorded
Hanuman that wish, and granted that his image will be installed at various public places, so he could listen to people chanting Ramas name. He is thus one of the
chiranjeevis (immortals) in Hinduism.

Proof From Mahabharat Bheem Meeting Hanuman Ji


HanumanJi has shown his presence even during Mahabharatha which is believed to have happened during the time of Lord Krishna only 5000 years ago.

Bheem & Hanuman


When the Pandavas were in the forest, Draupadi requested Bheema for a Saugandhika flower of heavenly fragrance. Bheema went forth i nto the forest to bring it. As
Bheema was walking fast with long strides, he saw a monkeys tail across his path. He angrily shouted, You ape, remove your tail and clear my way. The monkey slowly
looked at Bheema and said, My dear man, I am very old and cant even move. Push my tail away and walk on. Bheema was angry, amused and full of contempt. Was it
what an unequalled hero like him should do? He tried to push the tail with his mace. But nothing happened. Try as he would, he could not even move that old tail. Then
his mind grew clear and it dawned on him that this was not any ordinary monkey but could be Hanuman. With folded hands he begged his pardon.

Krishna & Hanuman


Eager to be of service to another avatar of Lord Vishnu(Krishna), Hanuman attached himself to the flag of Arjunas chariot, whose charioteer in the Mahabharatha war
was Krishna. He thus had the fortune of hearing the Gita as recited by Sri Krishna himself, the only other people having the opportunity being Arjuna, Sanjaya and
Dhritarashtra.

Arjun & Hanuman


Once on his pilgrimage to visit sacred places Arjun met Hanuman at Rameswaram. Arjun over-confident about himself said, Sir Ram need not have asked the monkeys
to build a bridge. If I were there that time, I would have built a bridge with arrows. A bridge of your arrows! Leave alone the Vanara army, it will crumble under my feet
replied Hanuman. Well, it developed into a challenge. It was decided that Arjun should erect a bridge with his arrows and Hanuman should walk on it. If the bridge
collapsed, Arjuna should jump into fire; otherwise, Hanuman must adorn Arjuns banner.
Arjuna built a bridge with his arrows. No sooner did Hanuman set one foot on it than it broke into pieces. Arjuna got ready to jump into the fire.
Just then, Shri Krishn reached there. He asked them to repeat their performances. When Arjun erected the arrow-bridge, Krishn touched the bridge with his divine hands
as if to test it. Then when Hanuman danced on it heavily, it did not even shake. Hanuman was shocked and then realised that Krishn is none other than Rama. Hanuman
kept his word and entered Arjuns banner.

Presence of Hanuman
Hanuman is a Chiranjeevi, he is immortal. There have been numerous saints who have seen Hanuman in modern times, notably Tulsidas (16th century), Sri Ramdas
Swami (17th century), and Raghavendra Swami (17th century). Many others have also testified to his presence wherever the Ramayana is read.

Hanuman Ji Photographed Alive


Being one of the Avatar of Bhagwan Shiv, Hanuman Ji has power of changing forms and size of his body.
The incident occurred in recent 21st century itself.
The picture was purportedly taken of Hanuman in a cave at Manasarovar Lake (Kailash) in the Himalayas during 1998 summer. On Sunday the 9th May, 1999, this
strange picture of Hanuman reading the Ramayana, was first seen in the house of Sri V. Srinivasan at Rohini in North-West Delhi, and from there this picture got
populated across internet.
V Srinivasan said it is one of the few originals of the Hanuman photos.
The government of India every year during the summer before the onslaught of monsoon, gives permissions after medical check up, to selected individuals and send
them in groups to Manasarovar Lake near Kailash. Such groups necessarily will consist of different nationalities, and different people from different regions of India.

A group of people went to Manasarovar for a piligrimage trip. One person from the group of devotees taking the picture saw a light inside a cave, photoed that light and
died there on spot for reasons not known (this part every one is confirming who went along). Later the friends developed the roll from the camera and got this print!.
It is a fact that Hanuman does exist in this Kaliyuga, our present age, since he is a Chiranjeevi (immortal).

ANCIENT GODS: WHERE ARE THEY NOW?


Hannah M. G. Shapero
Here is the question a correspondent asked me:
What ever happened to the Greek and Roman gods?
When you consider how the Jews still worship approximately the same god as
they did 3000 years ago and ditto the Hindus (plural), it would seem that gods are

durable, even ineradicable cultural objects. Christians and Muslims routinely and
famously die rather than give up their faith.
The classical gods were sure-enough gods, while they lasted, with temples and
priests and followers. What happened to them? Where are the followers of Zeus
and Apollo? Did they just hang it up? Did isolated pockets hold out into more
recent times? Were there martyrs, Marranos, secret temples? Are they still
worshiped under other names?
This is a question which has many answers. There is no true answer to the
question, only ones which you feel are more or less convincing. These answers fall
into categories: philosophical, historical, theological, and finally something which
might be described as poetic virtual reality.
I will start with the philosophical. First, you have to define gods. Ill stick with
the basic, popular definition of a god (as opposed to God.) This is a being,
usually non-material, which has supernatural powers to direct and control reality,
and with whom human beings can have a relationship. The concept of a god is
still in our language, and if language defines reality (as many modern philosophers
will say), then the gods have not gone anywhere, nor ceased to exist. As long as
language still names them, they still have existence.
The philosopher then might add, Does an entity, especially a non-material one,
exist if no one believes in it? If it is true that no one still believes in Zeus, does
Zeus still exist? Just because it is named, does it have to exist? You can probably
think of all sorts of things which people once named and believed in, which no
longer exist such as phlogiston, or the gold standard. Are these things gone
forever once they pass out of living human consciousness? An idealist philosopher
would say, yes, once consciousness, which is our only way of interacting with the
world, ceases to perceive or even remember something, then that something might
as well be gone for good, and is. So there is a philosophical way to conclude that if
no one believes or thinks of Zeus and his kind any more, then the old gods are
gone for good.
To say that the gods are still around because they are part of written culture,
rather than living belief, brings us back to the first answer, which is that they are
part of language. And language, along with culture, creates reality. I will have
much more to say about this later on in this essay.
A more fruitful way to explore whether the old gods still exist is to look at them
from a historical standpoint. Classical scholars and archaeologists spend lifetimes
uncovering and explaining to modern folk, the relics and evidence of ancient
civilizations. There is a great deal of material remaining, both in texts and in ruins
and artifacts, about the old Greek and Roman gods and how they were worshipped.
Texts can explain not only how the ancients worshipped, but often how the
ancients felt about their religion, those intangible factors which simple archaeology
cant always reveal.
Perhaps the most important thing to keep in mind about the history of religion is
that ideas about God and gods change, and that different groups can view the same

religion and deities in very different ways. Another thing thats important to realize
when talking about ancient religions is that we in the modern world cannot help
but see ancient religion through eyes conditioned by our own religious experience,
which is almost always within the great Western monotheisms: Zoroastrianism,
Judaism, Christianity, or Islam. Given this, its necessary to talk a bit about how
ancient polytheists viewed their gods.
We modern monotheists assume that if a god is divine, that god is divine
everywhere and is the same everywhere. But in the ancient world, that wasnt
necessarily true. For ancient believers, gods were often local and tribal. You
worshipped any number of small local divinities, and if there was a major divinity
shared by a region, (such as Zeus) you might be more likely to worship the Zeus of
your neighborhood, rather than one universal Zeus. The same would go for the
other gods and goddesses often a local divinity would be blended (the official
word is conflated) with the major divinity so that your village or city had its own
Diana, its own Venus, etc. Similarly, a god was thought to be the god only of an
ethnic tribe or clan, and often was in conflict with the gods of other ethnic tribes
and clans.
You find this situation even in the early books of the Old Testament, where
YHVH, the One God of the Jews, was in historical reality not the One God of the
Universe but only that of the Hebrew tribes in their struggle against the gods of
other tribes. Thou shalt not have any other gods before me doesnt mean that the
other gods didnt exist it meant that you should not worship them.
The idea of a single, universal Divine entity, whether Zeus or another god, did
exist in the ancient world. Quite early on, the Pre-socratic Greek philosophers of
the 6th and 5th centuries BCE speculated about a single principle or being which
would cover every divine (and material) phenomenon. And much earlier (perhaps
as early as 1500 BCE) in a far distant place, Central Asia, the prophet Zarathushtra
proclaimed his message of one supreme and universal God, Ahura Mazda (which
means, the Wise Lord). This teaching became the basis of the Zoroastrian
religion of Persia, which by 500 BCE had spread westward to the shores of the
Mediterranean with the Persian Empire. It is likely that the early Greek
philosophers of the Eastern Mediterranean had some knowledge of Zoroastrian
teachings since they lived in Persian-occupied territory.
From these beginnings, the idea of a universalist monotheism with One Big God
took root in Western civilization but mainly among the learned and the
philosophically minded. To a philosophical devotee, Zeus, Aphrodite, Artemis, the
gods and goddesses of what are known as the Olympian pantheon, were all just
manifestations of this one big impersonal God principle transparent names and
images, rather than real beings. You went along with temple worship because it
was a civic duty, but your own religious life dealt with the philosophers abstract
God.
For the majority of the people throughout ancient times (and up to modern times
too!) religion was not philosophical. You prayed to and worshipped the god of
your home, your family, your clan, your tribe, your region without much thought

to universalist Big Gods. The Olympian pantheon was important mainly for civic
and imperial religion, big public ceremonies. Your own personal religion was not
Olympian but local and personal. Only if you had the notion to join a mystery
cult which featured fancy rites and a taste of esoteric philosophy along the lines
of what would be called New Age nowadays would a layperson share the
beliefs of the philosophers.
Elsewhere on the borders of the Persian Empire, another religious change was
taking place which would have major consequences for the development of
Western religion. In the 6th century BCE, the intellectuals and the elite of the
Jewish people were taken into captivity in what is now Mesopotamia (Babylon)
or Iraq - but was then Persian territory. These Jewish folk, despite their exile,
survived in their new home but their religion of necessity changed. The tribal God
of the Hebrews had not protected them against conquest by a foreign power, and
their temple, the only place where YHVH could be properly worshipped, had been
destroyed. How could they sing YHVHs hymns in a pagan country (as in Psalm
137)? The Jewish faith changed forever in exile. They began to conceive of God
not just as a tribal protector, but as a single universal Divinity which would bring
justice to all nations. And this God could be worshipped anywhere, with songs of
praise and prayer, rather than just sacrifices in a single temple.
This universalist monotheism, and many other aspects which would re-surface in
later Judaism and Christianity, was also influenced by the Persian religion of
Zarathushtra which the Jewish exiles encountered. Jews and Zoroastrians were
both monotheists in a polytheist world. And Zoroastrians had found a way to
reconcile the One God with the many gods of the polytheists. Though Ahura
Mazda was the single supreme God, the pagan gods of the Indo-Iranians had been
recycled into yazatas, (worship-able ones) semi-divine beings, created by
the One God to serve him in the battle against evil. Thus the Persians reconciled
the One with the many.
Jews were present in many of the cities of the ancient Mediterranean, especially
in Roman times, but they were in general not an aggressively proselytizing lot. But
when Christianity hit the scene, the religious balance of power began to change.
Christianity brought with it the universalist monotheism of Judaism, the good/evil
dualism of Zoroastrianism, and a level of aggressive missionary zeal which was
new to the ancient world. Among pagans (literally, those from the
countryside), Gods tended to be interchangeable and blendable, as I have
mentioned above. Your Zeus was close enough to my Zeus so that we were
probably worshipping the same deity and if you came from a different culture, as
happened in Asia Minor when Persian and Greek met, your sun-god Mithra is the
same as my sun-god Apollo. So there werent too many religious wars in the
ancient world you could always reconcile one god with another or even put them
together, as the Greeks did in Egypt when they blended Greek and Egyptian gods
in Hellenistic times (c. 330 BCE to turning of millennium to CE).
But when the Christians came on the scene, they believed that the other gods
were not only not to be worshipped, but were evil and needed to be destroyed.

Thou shalt have no other god before me! for a universal rather than a tribal God,
meant that NO other god was worth worshipping.
By the fourth century CE, Christianity had become the state religion of the
Roman Empire, and was enforced throughout the Empire, even though many
people still held out for their pagan gods. Those who did, interestingly, often were
philosophical intellectual types, who believed in that universal, abstract God I
talked about earlier. They didnt need another universal God, they already had one.
And in the pagan countryside, the locals accepted Christianity and then promptly
went back to worshipping their local godlings. This last bit is important for finally
answering the question, Where did the old gods go.
Remember that Zoroastrians, despite Zarathushtras admonishment in his
original scriptures to reject other Gods and worship only Ahura Mazda, had found
a way to re-assimilate the old gods into the new religion as angels or guardian
spirits. This process of assimilation went on in newly Christianized Europe and
continues to go on wherever the great monotheisms have spread. Despite official
fulminations about Only One God One Way Other Gods are Demons! most
of the Christianized world has assimilated its original, local pagan divinities and
rites into the newer religion, and has done so in the Mediterranean for almost two
thousand years. You can still see, in Greece and Italy, little shrines in the
countryside or the city, with a statue of the Virgin Mary or a saint in them, and
sometimes flowers and candles offered by worshippers. The things that have
changed about these shrines after the advent of Christianity is the name of the
divinity, the appearance of the statue, and the nature of the ritual usually,
Christians dont sacrifice animals any more. But its still a place to worship, that
puts you in touch with God. Similarly, with the local cults of various saints, its
most likely that before the saint came along, that local cult was devoted to a local
god. This is true in Islam as well; despite the essential belief of Islam that there is
but One God, Allah, the Islamic world contains many holy sites where miracles
took place or where saints are buried. These sites, despised by purist clergy,
nevertheless attract people and serve the same purpose that the pre-Islamic shrines,
possibly in the same places, used to serve.
Mediterranean people are practical. They go along with whatever religion
works, as long as they dont have to change their ways too much. Therefore, those
who might have worshipped Diana or Venus in Roman times, now put their
flowers in front of a statue of the Virgin Mary. Its Mary who is their helper now,
but the Goddess concept is still very much lurking underneath that blue robe, even
if a peasant believer would be horrified if you suggested that she was doing
something other than Christian. Even the learned clergy and theologians of some
Christian denominations admit that many Goddess-figures worshipped all over the
Mediterranean were assimilated into the figure of the Virgin Mary.
So where did the Old Gods go, from a historical point of view? They didnt go
anywhere. They just changed their names and their appearance, and continued to
be worshipped by devotees under their new guise. I have seen in Rome, for
instance, a majestic statue of the Virgin Mary called the Madonna del Parto

(Madonna of Birth) which consists of a Roman marble statue of the goddess Juno,
with a Renaissance head of Mary replacing the old goddess head. Women still
come to this statue to pray for children and easy births, as they have done for two
thousand years, whether it was Juno or Mary.
However, as modernization spreads through the world and religion in general
wanes as an influence, at least in Europe, these pagan survivals are disappearing.
In the USA, the Protestantism of the white settlers did not have a popular (though
officially forbidden) habit of assimilating Native or aboriginal features, as the
Catholicism of Europe and South America did. Instead, Indians were converted to
Christianity or slaughtered (or died of introduced diseases) and their cultures,
including their religions, were destroyed. Though there is now interest in reviving
these ancient ways, many of them and their tribal divinities and worship are
gone for good. Are the gods (if one can talk of gods) of the ancient Native
Americans still alive? We are left with the same question we asked in the
beginning, after two thousand years of assimilation which may now be coming to
an end with the spread of rationalistic modernism (at least in Europe) which
recognizes no gods or God at all, or intolerant Evangelicalism which wishes to
destroy old gods rather than re-cycle them. Where did the old gods go?
To bring us to another group of answers, we must leave history and go to
theology. Theology, rather than economics, is the dismal science. I find few
things less conducive to religious inspiration than studying theology, but like
economics, it can tell us a great deal.
To talk about God and the gods, we need to talk about monotheism. I have
already described at least three types of monotheism. Theres local monotheism,
that is, there is One God but its the God of our tribe, not yours. Then theres what
I might call catholic (with a small c, meaning open to other influences)
monotheism which says that there is One God but other Gods can lend their
aspects to worship and even stay on as long as they are demoted to angels or saints.
And then theres absolute monotheism there is One God, and there are NO
OTHERS every other god is either a demon or doesnt exist at all, just an
illusion.
Lets add to these monotheisms, philosophical monotheism. One common
type of this monotheism allows for a God, but it is an impersonal, abstract sort of
God, who set the universe in motion and designed all its rules and laws. After
Creation, this God has stepped back and allows the universe to run on its own as it
was designed to do. This God, the God of the Deists, isnt personal it wont hear
or answer prayers, it has no story or appearance or personality, and it cant change
reality from the way it is supposed to lawfully proceed. It neither loves nor hates
its just there, and very remote. Another type of philosophical monotheism says
that not only is there a God, but that God is identical with the whole World God
IS the Universe, and everything is God. God is then thought of as a kind of
universal energy which manifests in the diversity of the cosmos, but that
diversity is ultimately an illusion because everything ultimately is made of Godstuff. This is the monotheism (also called monism) of Hindu philosophers and

also of the Jewish philosopher Spinoza.


We must not forget another type of monotheism, namely atheism, or in its
milder form, agnosticism. Atheism is monotheism, because if you believe in
Nothing, there is only one Nothing! Atheists, like absolute monotheists, declare
that there are no gods worthy of worship because they dont exist. They just delete
one more God, the God of absolute monotheism. So for Atheists, no gods exist,
and no gods ever existed anything that went by the name of God or god or
Zeus or Artemis was an illusion from the beginning. This is one answer to where
the old gods went they never existed in the first place! This answer is more
popular than you might think, and is probably the answer most scientists or
academics would give you.
So if you are a Monotheistic Believer, here is a selection of answers you can
give to the question, Where did the old Olympian gods go? If youre a local
monotheist, a position that is still widely held (One Nation, Under God), the old
gods are someone elses gods, who are not really gods but primitive imaginings or
even hallucinations of superstitious people who have not come to accept Our One
True God. Therefore the old gods were never really gods, only bad ideas in the
minds of people who will forget them as soon as they have accepted the true
religion.
If you are a catholic monotheist (though not necessarily a Catholic!), the old
gods were not beings in themselves, but the glimmerings of religious
understanding among pre-scientific peoples. The myths, art, literature, and
philosophy of the people who believed in those old gods still contain much of
value which God (the One True Universal God) imparted to those people even
before Monotheism arose. These partial truths, which are called by Eastern
Orthodox thinkers, the seeds of wisdom, could be found among pagans or nonChristians, and can be assimilated and preserved by monotheistic believers, even
though the gods of the pagans must be rejected. Did they exist? Are they gone
now? Rather like the local monotheists, the more catholic monotheists would say
that they were dim, early images of the divine, created by a previous civilization
that has now been superseded. But the best, the truest parts of that older
civilization, live on inside the new, true religion.
Both the above positions are compatible with a moderate form of absolute
monotheism. But for some of the more fanatical absolute monotheists, among
whom can be counted radical Evangelicals and other fundamentalists, the old gods
did exist, but they were demons. They were actually evil beings, sent by Satan to
deceive people. They were idols false things worshipped by ignorant people.
Once the true monotheism has arrived, there is no excuse to worship these idols.
Therefore they must be smashed, and Christianity and Islam have done a lot of
smashing over the years. Do they still exist? Yes, the way Satan and the demons
still exist. Though we must fight them at every opportunity, they will exist until the
end of time, until the final victory of God will send all false gods and idols into the
abyss where they will either disappear completely or stay in Hell along with those
that God has judged worthy of eternal punishment. Interestingly, this view is closer

to the attitude of many early Christians than the moderate views of most modern
Christians.
If you are a Deistic type, you might regard those old gods as quaint and colorful
manifestations of the primitive human imagination, but ultimately they had no
substance so, as with other monotheists, the old gods never really existed as
gods. So they have never gone anywhere they never were, rather like shadows
disappearing at the advent of Deistic dawn. For a monist, however, these Gods,
like everything else in manifestation, were God they existed within the unified
Divine Energy. Gods were God, worshippers were God, all was, and is, ultimately
One Existence.
So far weve examined some common monotheistic attitudes towards the
existence or nonexistence of the old polytheistic gods. But what about polytheists?
Are there any? Does anyone still believe nowadays in the Olympian gods of the
Mediterranean either because their beliefs have survived since ancient times, or
because they have taken these beliefs up again?
Even though some folks claim an unbroken tradition from ancient times, there is
no good evidence for any original Pagan worshippers in Europe or the
Mediterranean still going about the business of sacrificing to Zeus or Apollo. That
does not mean that Pagan-derived worship has disappeared, as I said above, only
that it has been transformed into something that is at least marginally acceptable in
a Christian or Islamic environment. But at least since the Renaissance, there has
been among intellectuals, artists, and cultural revolutionaries, a tendency towards
neo-Paganism. Renaissance thinkers like the Florentine Marsilio Ficino, for
instance (late 15th century) actually proposed and performed ceremonies in honor
of Venus, Jupiter, and other gods considered benevolent, under the guise of
astrology for the gods were also planets believed to have influences on human
life. And yet Ficino was a devout Catholic! This neo-paganism of the
Renaissance and early modern times was something done among the elite and the
elegant, rather than the original idea of rustic paganism among peasants.
During the later centuries, some eccentrics, occultists, and poets made cultural
scandal by openly admitting to worshipping pagan gods though some of this was
more of a daring pretense than a real act of worship. The Romantic movement of
the 19th century, with its challenges to bourgeois religion and morality, was a
strong impetus to this kind of defiance. The modern movement of neo-paganism
has its roots in these Romantic and late 19th-century explorations.
By the beginning of the 20th century, movements like Theosophy, which
attempted to unify the mystical teachings of Hinduism, Buddhism and Western
occultism, had influenced the non-mainstream religious and artistic world.
Theosophy recognized the value of all religions, including the ancient paganisms,
while promoting its own universalist, eclectic blend of east and west. Similarly, the
Swiss thinker Carl Jung (1875-1961), borrowing heavily from earlier occult
philosophies like alchemy, advanced a theory of archetypes which attempted to
explain why so many similar mythological figures appear in unconnected cultures
over long periods of time. Jungs archetypes often referred specifically to old gods,

especially the Olympian pantheon of Greece and Rome. While Jung never actually
worshipped these gods, he may have taken part in occult rituals which could be
considered neo-pagan.
The modern neo-pagan movement began in postwar England, among groups of
unconventional types who drew on Theosophy, Jung, Western occultism,
Freemasonry, and the work of anthropologist Margaret Murray, who promoted the
theory (now considered dubious) that pre-Christian pagan religion survived in
northern Europe as witchcraft. From these English ritualists came the first
openly polytheist modern religion, now known as Wicca. Wicca, though it
presents itself as a re-surfacing of a submerged but continuous tradition, is more
accurately a revival and re-construction of what modern ritualists and believers
think might have been ancient pagan religion. Even this has been heavily diluted
and modernized to fit the laws and culture of the modern world for instance,
Wiccans do not sacrifice animals.
Wicca and a myriad of other neo-pagan offshoots do resemble ancient paganism,
though, in that they are local in reach and highly diverse in belief. You would have
difficulty getting any kind of universal doctrine that fits all Neo-pagans. So, to get
back to our question, do these Neo-pagans worship many gods? Do they believe
that the old gods, the Olympian gods, still exist and are worthy of worship?
Wiccans that I have talked to dont believe in many Gods, though they dont rule
them out. They are more likely to believe in two Gods, or rather, a God and a
Goddess, representing the principles of opposite genders working in
complementarity. But often, a Wiccan will admit to a more monistic point of
view, in that they believe that God and Goddess are really One, and in fact
everything else is, too. I often say that if you scratch a Wiccan, you will get a
liberal monotheistic Protestant, who has added some popular Hinduism
(reincarnation, karma, and monism) to the mix. This is not as silly as it sounds, as
most Wiccans come from an Anglo-American culture in which various types of
Protestantism are dominant yet they also inherit the colonialist legacy of
adopting ideas from exotic Eastern religions.
Are there any Neo-pagans who believe in multiple Gods really believe in
them? Yes, and they are able to pick the pantheon of their choice. Some who are
fascinated with Norse culture choose (or claim to be chosen by) the gods of the
North: Odin, Thor, Freya, even trickster Loki. Neo-paganism in the USA and
Britain is heavily dependent on Celtic culture, portrayed in a highly idealized
manner, and some Celtic pagans profess belief in old Irish gods and goddesses.
Others, including some African-Americans, have picked up the ancient Egyptian
pantheon and offer services to Isis, Osiris, and Horus. Have any neo-pagans chosen
the old Olympian gods? Yes, there are Roman and Greek revivalists who claim to
have returned to the worship of Zeus, Aphrodite, Apollo, Artemis, or their Roman
counterparts. These classical neo-pagans are involved in other revivalist activities
like Roman re-enactment, costuming, cooking from Roman recipes, crafts, and
antiquarian research. They keep in touch with each other through Internet, an
ancient communications device only recently recovered from the undersea ruins of

Atlantis.
So heres yet another answer to whether anyone still worships the old Olympian
gods: yes! They may not be original believers theyre most likely computer
programmers living near large American cities but they are sincere. Not only do
they believe that the old gods exist, they believe that Zeus, Apollo, or other Roman
or Greek deities can answer prayers, give prophetic dreams, comfort the
worshipper in affliction, bring good fortune, or even heal illnesses. They dont
have the elaborate temple structure and priesthood that the ancient religion had
their numbers and resources are far too small for that. But these neo-Olympians
will build little shrines and personal altars, at which they burn candles and incense,
and offer simple gifts like small cakes and flowers, much as the ancients did at
their own niches. Yes, ancient worship lives again.
But Im not going to end here. The main question has not been answered, at least
not to my satisfaction. You can worship anything Zeus, Apollo, Thor, Isis, Elvis,
but is what you are worshipping real? Is it still there? Proving Gods existence is
impossible, and proving a lesser gods existence equally impossible but can a
god die? Can something that was once worshipped disappear into oblivion?
Popular legends and stories tell of ethereal beings, such as the fairy Tinkerbell,
whose very existence depends on the belief of human beings. When people cease
to believe in these sweet spirits, they disappear into non-existence, like bubbles.
Are the gods the same way? If no one believes in them, as I said earlier in this
essay, do gods die? If not, then what lives on?
For this answer, I must cross over into the realm of esotericism, that field of
philosophy and art which is the soft underbelly of Western culture. To talk
seriously of esotericism means death to an academic career, but Im not in any
danger because I dont have an academic career. Esotericism, which Ive
mentioned in regard to theosophy and Jung, is the other side of monotheistic
absolutism. Its the dusty attic where all the ideas that didnt make it into
mainstream religion get stored. Fortunately, the much-maligned postmodern
movement in philosophy, along with the modern experience of cyberspace and
virtual reality, has come along to rescue some of this material and bring it into
the light.
One of the things that comes from esotericism is a view of reality which is not
dualistic. When the average rationalist thinker considers reality, he will likely
break it into real and unreal. Similarly, if he is a religious believer of some
sort, he will break reality into physical and spiritual. Horses are real, Pegasus
is unreal. Dogs are physical, angels are spiritual. Reality conveniently fits into
these pairs of dualisms. Or does it? What if there were another layer of reality
which was neither real nor unreal?
The French scholar of mystical Islam, Henri Corbin (mid-20th century) gave this
layer of reality the name imaginal world. It is originally a Neo-Platonic concept,
which was adopted by the Sufis. Plato imagined a world of pure archetypes, where
the ideal perfect prototypes of all objects reside. The esoteric Sufis conceived of a
middle world, between the mundane world of stones and soup and the Platonic

world of pure concepts and ideals like Love, Truth, and Goodness. In this middle
world, the imaginal world, reside all the things which are mythical, which are the
product of human imagination, and things which are the echoes of our real world
seen in dreams or art. In the imaginal world, all these things are as real as things in
the real world. There are dragons and damsels, spaceships and wizards, peaceful
utopias and hellish dystopias. There are cities of crystal and cities of monsters,
golden apples and laughing cats. All these things and more are in the Imaginal
World. And the gateway to this world is human creativity and human imagination.
This is how we reach it, and this is how we navigate through it.
Are there things in the Imaginal World which people have NOT made up? The
believers say, probably. The demons and the hells of torment, the paradises and the
angels of delight, may reside here, as well as the saints, heroes, and villains of
legend. There are places both terrifying and joyous, beings malevolent and
gracious and every moral shade in between. Sherlock Holmes lives here, and so
does Dracula. Helen of Troy visits with Faust again; Humpty Dumpty gets put
back together. There are infinite possibilities here, and it is just as possible that
explorers of the Imaginal World are discovering things, as it is that they are
making things up. Or so a believer would say. To old-fashioned rationalists, the
Imaginal World is just another name for silly fairy-tales, fabricated myth, or
delusions, or hallucinations. But in our modern age, we have yet another name
for this Imaginal World: virtual reality.
We are just beginning to understand how computer technology and the
Atlantean Internet are changing our lives. Virtual reality twenty years ago was
something out of science fiction. Now it is something we do every day, if we have
that vital connection. We encounter images, people, things on our screens which
we give a reality to without actual evidence that they are real. Video games give us
a dazzlingly rendered illusion not only of entering another world but actually
acting inside it. The screen has become our gateway to an electronically created
Imaginal World. Quite a number of authors have already made the connection
between the esotericists imaginal world, the occultists astral plane (basically
the same concept) and the virtual reality of a computer network. It is becoming
harder and harder to be an old-fashioned rationalist dualist though there are still
plenty of them to be found.
To me, this is the best answer to where the old gods have gone. They are not the

Assurance from a Saintly priest of Hanuman and Sai very happily nodding head and
kissing the palm of devotee who shows aarti
Posted by venkatraman on 1/20/13 Categorized as Dwarakamai
Sairam friends,
I am writing this Shirdi Sai baba experience as soon as i woke up after a very very sweet and surprising dream.

Worries about my relationship:


After many years of sufferings, Saibaba blessed me with a very good girl whos also a Sai devotee on Maha Samadhi day of 2011. Somehow we got close and were praying sai to tell our
parents by his leela. I told my parents who wants us to get married but since shes still doing her studies, my parents feel its not nice to ask her parents if we can meet. There were lots of
misunderstandings in our house as they feel, i am spoiling her studies. They feel it wont happen practically as her parents wont accept.
I did parayan of Sai Satcharitra the complete big version of 800 pages in Tamil called Sai Ramayanam and kept praying Sai Baba to do leela to unite our families.

shirdi sai baba statue in which sai came alive and kissed the palm happily

Darshan of Hanuman :
Yesterday evening, i went to Saibaba temple in my home town and was too sad all the day. It really kills me that i am neither able to give happiness to my old parents nor the girl i love.
Shes also in pain and at times we ask baba, its better if we had not met. She was also sick with cold and fever and i argued a lot with her. I walked to Sakthi Dham mandir The north
indian temple of Goddess where theres Ganesha, Sakthi , Ram -Sita, Radhe -Krishna, Lord Shiva and my favorite Hanuman.
The priest of Hanuman is close to me. He gave prasad and asked me when i am going to call him for marriage. I told him ask Hanuman and he pointed to the shiva lingam opposite to
us. I walked back to Sai baba temple and then reached home. I saw a movie on Youtube about saint Dhyaneswar who lived in 12th century (black and white movie made in 1940). I was
sleeping all through the movie but felt atleast watching such divine movies sends a good positive vibration in my house.

Blessed with a beautiful dream of Shirdi Saibaba and Hanuman


I slept remembering Sainath friends at around 1 o clock in night. Early morning i was blessed with the following dream
I see myself and my friend Kavi going to a very beautiful temple. Theres huge steps resembling stair case of Sakthi Dham mandir. While we go near the main temple, Kavi being a
designer says that they must have constructed temple with more architectural work. Then we worship Goddess Sakthi in the temple.

Hanuman, Ram and Sita blessings for happy married life

Hanuman temple with a very saintly priest giving me prasad:


I turn back and see two sannidhi in front of temple .Its writen Ram Sita
I saw Kavi I will go and pray Radha Krishna . I walk to that sannidhi and was surprised to see Hanuman. A saintly priest is sitting there doing pooja for Hanuman. I could understand
he has divine ways to give devotees solution. So i say him
I am in love with a girl whos still doing her studies and since my parents are weak and old, they want me to get married soon. I am in a situation that i want both my parents and the girl
to be happy. So sai baba must do leela to unite our families
The priest throws me a very peculiar flower. Its white in color and i remember such flowers while i was a kid near Ganesha temple. The priest giving me this 2 flowers as prasad with
very positive assurance that we will get married by Hanumans grace.
A out house in temple where i see our family friends
I see myself in the out house of temple where i see our family friends. They give me coffee and say why dont you stay back for Guru Pooja. I say, ya in chennai, i must go to
Ramakrishna temple or Shirdi Sai baba temple or such Hanuman temple for Guru pooja. They insist i stay back for Guru pooja that evening and get blessings.

I see my uncle and aunt showing Aarti to Shirdi Sai Baba statue:
The dream continues.
I see myself inside my uncles home in Chennai. They have a Sai baba Statue for which pooja is being done with devotion. I see my aunt very eagerly showing aarti to Sai baba statue.
When Aarti is shown, its truly very very cute to see Baba is nodding his head in statue itself. The way he nods his head was too exited a continuous to and fro movement. As he he is
very happy when a devotee whole heartedly worships him, Sai comes alive into the statue.
Then i see the Hanuman priest taking the aarti lamp and showing aarti very close to saibaba statue. You know what friends I saw Sai very beautifully turning his head down and kissing
the palm of the priest. Oh my God. How can i write what i saw in dream. Such a saint who loves his devotees by coming alive into the statue, nodding his head and even kissing the
palm. Where on earth can we get a saint like Sai who is very happy and exited when we worship him with devoted mind and pure love.
Then i say my uncle,

Saibaba statue is nodding head and Sai even kissed your friends (priest) palm. Did you notice. My mama says I dont
know all that. I just know Baba loves us.
This is more surprising friends. Seems baba had shown this vision only to me and i thanked Baba from bottom of my heart.
My father opened my room door with coffee. I woke up, went near Baba , joined my palm togather, touched the Sai in my house I washed my face, played Kakad Aarti in my computer
and started writing this experience.
I am sure Sai will soon do a leela to unite our families and my girl will be happy too.

And to the devotees who read this, i hope Sai shows a way for all of you too. Dont get a feeling that Sai is helping venkat alone. Not really, there were years when i struggled and
suffered but now after i had enough patience and beared it all, i believe Sai is blessing me with his Gift.
My humble prayers to Sai and Hanuman to make my parents and my girl happy by his leela and i write about it in StarSai. Few years back a devotee complained that StarSai is simply
about Venkat and not about Saibaba. Honestly, its like that since what ever i think and do has Sai in it. May be its my dairy but its also Temple of Humanity. StarSai spreads Sais love
on devotees and devotees love on Sai.
There could be a reason why Hanuman came in dream. While at office, my friends were saying that Hanuman though is a celibate is very pure and helps us if we love someone truly to
unite us. As Hanuman united Rama and Sita, he will also bless devotees with pure mind.

Jai Hanuman Sri Ram Jayam Jai Hanuman

Amazing darshan of Hanuman -- you have to see this to believe it

Dear All,
Jai Guru Hanuman

This happened in Kalika Mata temple in Ratlam, M.P., last


month. Pictures tell the true story. The Saintwas telling the
story of Ramayana and "Hanumanji" appeared in the form of
langur !! The langur first went and sat near the singers and
listened to the kirtan, held the mic of the mahantji, got
blessed by him,then "blessed" the saints and then sat in front
of Shri Ramji's photo and took some of the flowers (note
similar position to Shri Hanumanji in the framed picture) and
left quietly.

Bolo Siyavar Ramchandra ki Jai. Pavanasutha Hanuman ki Jai.

How to publish your first book

ET Wealth

Stieg Larsson, the late author of the hugely-popular Millennium trilogy books, first submitted his manuscript to Piratfrlag, a Swedish publisher. Piratfrlag never opened
the package because he was a first-time author. He eventually had Norstedts Frlag publish the work .
Larsson's fate with Piratfrlag is similar to that of most aspiring authors, especially in India: Their work remains unpublished. This is despite the presence of nearly 16,000
publishers in India, a number arrived without counting foreign powerhouses such as Oxford and Harper Collins. Still, a growing number of Indian authors are emerging by
the day. And Larsson's case suggests there is hope.

Here is how you can publish your work.


The publisher route
Firstly, identify the genre of your work. You must then search for publishers under that category. Most publishers have a fixed format for submission available on their
website.
"You should submit a detailed synopsis along with the first few chapters," says Rajiv Beri, managing director of Macmillan Publishers. "Ideally, you should intersperse the
chapters that are being sent, especially for fiction."Members of the publishing industry say authors must understand a target audience and selling point of the work.
The synopsis should contain the standout features of the work. A few publishers believe background information about an author helps. Check, check and check for
accuracy. And weed out grammatical errors and spelling mistakes."It is important to send your work to as many publishers as possible," says Ravi Subramanian, author of
If God Was A Banker and Devil in Pinstripes.
"For every one publisher who may show interest in your work, there will be at least five who will reject you." A first-time author should send the full manuscript, he
adds.The waiting period is usually between two and five weeks.
You should worry only after.
Publishing industry insiders say do not jump at an offer. "One shouldn't say yes in desperation to the first publisher who approaches. New authors especially should wait
and weigh their deal and agree only when they are sure that they have landed themselves a good offer," says Subramanian.

The big challengegrabbing the attention of a publisherdone with, heed to contract signing. "There is not much leeway for a first-time author," says Rashmi Bansal,
author of Stay Hungry Stay Foolish and Connect The Dots.

Royalty for freshers generally is 5-7.5%, or a percentage of the price of each book sold. If you are lucky, it can rise to 10%. Up to 5,000 books are published usually in the
first tranche. A publisher decides the pricing, publicity and number of books. The royalty may be a one-time payment or paid as a signing amount, on delivering the
manuscript and on sale of the work.
"One should also check the terms of the contract and the rights being transferred," says Joseph Mathai, consultant with Independent Publishers' Distribution Alternative.
Beri adds: "One should also be clear whether royalty is on the MRP or the net price of the book." Your job is not over yet. There is still marketing.
"Given the number of books released, getting a mention or review is not easy unless your book stands out," says Bansal. One should organise events at bookstores and
create a website, blog and community on social networking sites, she says. You can also hire a public relations company. This can cost between Rs 50,000 and Rs 1
lakh.

Written a book? Publish it yourself!

Thanks to the many self-publishing websites, a young writer can go ahead and
publish his or her own e-book at a nominal cost, says Hemchhaya De

Srividya Srikumar is an aspiring poet. But the Chennai-based fashion model in her 20s hardly has the time to chase publishers to bring out an anthology of
her poems penned in between her busy shoots. But she fulfilled her long-cherished dream to be a published poet when she came across an Indian web site
offering do-it-yourself (DIY) publishing. In other words, she uploaded her poems on a self-publishing web site for free and opted for the portal's cover design
and text formatting services for a nominal fee. And, voil, she is now a self-published poet with her works reaching a global audience!
Srividya is just one among many, many young aspiring authors today who inspired by the online self-publishing success stories of E.L. James and closer
home, Amish Tripathy are keen to explore a brave, new world. Self-publishing, particularly online DIY publishing, is apparently helping them bypass the
constraints of traditional publishing houses. "You might have to wait for a year or more before traditional publishers convert your manuscript into print," says
Srividya. "But now with online self-publishing options, you can sell an ebook in about seven minutes."
In addition to Amazon, several web sites are now available in the country catering to Indian authors, writing not only in English but also in vernacular
languages. Take pothi.com, notionpress.com and soon-to-be-launched ebooksutra.com where you can just upload books for free or for a nominal fee in no
time if your works meet the criteria set by them.
Then there are Indian self-publishing platforms Cinnamon Teal, Power Publishers and Partridge India from Penguin, to name a few that offer
specialised editing-proofing-designing services and help you fast-track publishing both ebooks and printed copies "on demand".
But although digital self-publishing has made publishing easier like never before, experts say authors, particularly self-publishing writers, need to follow some
basic rules to make an impact. "We find that many authors in India, especially youngsters, need a lot of hand-holding from our end in terms of writing or
editing," says Leonard Fernandes, co-founder, Cinnamon Teal.
The first step, experts say, should be choosing a genre and assessing whether it's fit for online publishing. For instance, if you are writing chick-lit, horror
fiction or any other popular genre, online self-publishing can be preferred. But experts maintain that for fine pieces of literary work, traditional publishers can
be indispensable. "Technology today has the ability to speed up the publishing process but it isn't as simple as it seems," cautions Vivek Mehra,
managing director and CEO, Sage Publications India, who, interestingly, is also experimenting with online self-publishing with his fiction, Seven Shades of
Grey. "The DIY comes with plenty of assumptions these are easy or difficult to circumvent based on the type of book you are planning to publish."
He adds if it is a racy novel, an author will have very little to do, thus making self publishing easier. "However, if you want to publish a cookbook or a memoir
replete with photographs, you are definitely going to have formatting issues," says Mehra. In other words, traditional publishing might be a better option,
depending on the complexity of text and formatting.
What's of paramount importance before one embarks on DIY publishing is ensuring the quality of writing and staying original, according to online publishers.
Self-publishing doesn't mean one is allowed to put forth sloppy writing, they warn. "We have seen many youngsters do not know the basics of writing for
instance, how to write a title for a book," says Fernandes of Cinnamon Teal.
Others point out that there's basic disregard for grammar and punctuation and crafting a plot for fiction. "There are some key things to remember if you want
to publish your own book, and more importantly, if you want to see it sell," says Sandeep Sengupta, co-founder, ebooksutra.com. "It's tempting to think that
because you're publishing your own work without an editor looming over your head, you can get away with a few grammar or spelling errors here or there."
But these are the things readers will notice and such errors will put them off your book, he adds.
Experts also advise attending writing workshops to hone skills such as a basic grounding in how to create characters, develop plot points, introduce tension
and so on. "We are thinking of holding workshops for authors keen on self-publishing in major cities," says Naveen Valsakumar, co-founder of the Chennaibased Notionpress.com, a newly launched online DIY publishing site where most of the authors are young, first-time writers.
Others feel one shouldn't, even on online publishing sites, do away with editing. "No matter how good an author you are, you will not be able to edit your own
book," says Mehra. Agrees Debayudh Chatterjee, a first-year MA English student at Delhi University and an up-and-coming poet who publishes his works on
digital platforms. "Feedback from an editor always helps because writing is interactive," he says .
Experts also caution against plagiarism. Most portals like Notionpress.com and ebooksutra.com have screening systems or software to detect plagiarism.
Another key factor for self-publishing is keeping in place a marketing strategy. "Determine your marketing plans for getting your book noticed by readers,
even before your book is published," says Andrew Phillips, CEO, Author Solutions, an international self-publishing company that partnered with Penguin
India to launch Partridge. "Book marketing is critical to success."
There's no denying the fact that DIY publishing sites help authors access a global readership. "Authors opting for self-publishing on our site will be put up on
ecommerce sites such as Flipkart," says Naveen of Notionpress. Besides, sites like ebooksutra help authors with social media marketing.
But some say that traditional publishing still has an advantage over DIY publishing online. "Even with traditional publishing houses, the author is the main
ambassador of his own book," says Mehra. "A digital platform services many authors; they don't have the bandwidth to promote individual titles."
Publishers further say one shouldn't expect to be an overnight literary sensation with self-publishing. "There are some success stories (in online publishing)
but these, when compared to traditional publishing, are still fewer in number," says Mehra.
Experts say the self-publishing market in India is not as mature as that in the West. The number of self-published books in America grew by 287 per cent
between 2006 and 2011 while online self-published books accounted for more than 20 per cent of crime, science fiction, romance and humour ebooks sold
in the UK in 2012. In comparison, in India, ebooks comprise less than a per cent of the Rs 10,000 crore book publishing industry.
But Indian authors are slowly waking up to the potential of DIY publishing where the bulk of the revenue earned through book sales goes to the author. "One
has to keep on writing if one wishes to sustain self-publishing," says Naveen. "Don't be afraid of making mistakes. You can always learn from them and
move on."
DIY PUBLISHING TIPS
(i) Be original, avoid plagiarism at all costs
(ii) Choose a genre suited for online

looking for print on demand self publishers
Best Answer

? answered 3 years ago


As suggested earlier, you can approach any agent for publishing your book. However it may take
time as many other authors also used to submit their books for publications. If you are publishing for
the first time and have limited budget, you can approach a print on demand publisher. So far I know,
there is a new print on demand publishing company in Manipur , Globalconnect, which publishes all
the books submitted. They also offer a very low and competitive price ( I guess it is the lowest) of
just Rs.2000/- in case if you want your book to be printed( presently they offer five copies). If you do
not wish to print your book and want to sell as ebook, they do not charge any fee from you. They will
format and publish your book. They also submit your book to their online stores and to their affiliate
partners Amazon.com and Lulu.com. You can check it on Amazon.
Iam an author who have successfully written book entitled " Becoming God" which is presently live
on Amazon.com and Lulu.com. My books were published by Globalconnect and they actually sent
me five copies of the printed book.
Their website is globalcnt.co.nr
Hope it helps you.

Re: Signs of Black magic done on you


Salaam
Some signs of a magician to help people identify them and to stay away from them. They often desguise themselves as healers, peers, baba's
etc.. but in reality use magic and work with jinns.
Magicians practicing sorcery have certain features and signs that prove that they are obeying and worshipping the devils (shayaateen) and are in
league with them. The ruling of magic (witchcraft, sorcery) is that it is disbelief (kufr) and anyone indulging in it is a kafir (disbeliever). There is no

such thing as "good" magic. All magic (sihr) is haraam.


Please note that when many of these signs are combined and found together, it gives a much greater likelihood of this person being a magician.
Some of these signs are such which if found in isolation may simply hint at the person being a magician, and others are such which if found on their
own are clear signs of a magician.
Signs of the Practitioners of Magic (Sihr)
From these signs are:

The magician will ask you for some clothing which has been in direct contact with your body, they are looking for something which has traces of
sweat upon it. It can also be a comb, or some hair, or a picture (photo).
The magician will ask you for your name and the name of your mother. This type of magician is potentially greater in his disbelief than others,
because the devils are prepared to work for him through names alone, without the need for any clothing or hair and the likes, which indicates his
obedience to the devils is greater than others, and that he has reached a level with these devils that other lesser magicians have not.
He will chant or mumble what are talismans (spells, amulets) but in a language that is not understandable.
He will ask a person to keep away from the people for a defined time in a room in which no sunlight enters.
He will often be found in a dark room.
He will often use bukhoor (incense) or a fire in which he will put bukhoor (incense).
The magician will ask you for a sacrificial animal (chicken, sheep etc.) with a given description (i.e. age, size etc.) so that it is sacrificed in a specific
way (without Allaah's name being mentioned), and then its blood is used to smear on to the patient's body (where he has his pain or disease), or
the patient may be requested to go to a deserted buildings or places and asked to smear the blood, or it may be on stones or on trees in a certain
location.
On some occasions the magician may tell the person his name, his mother's name, the place he has come from, or the reason (problem, ailment,
need) for which he has come. He gets this knowledge through the devils he is giving obedience to, and which he is summoning for this purpose.
He may give the person an amulet in the shape of a triangle or a square (made out of paper, or a cloth), or it could be out of leather, or it could be
made out of silver, and inside of it there are written calls for help from the devils, coded through numbers and symbols, and words written
backwards. He may ask the person to hang them around his neck or put them under the pillow.
He will write talismans, or amulets in which he mixes parts of the Qur'an, the names of the Prophets, or Companions, along with unknown names,
symbols and combinations of numbers and letters.
He will write or prepare talismans on paper or otherwise and which will often contain five pointed stars - these five pointed stars represent Satan in
occult symbolism.
He may give the person certain artifacts and ask him to bury them in the earth, in a specific location.
He may give the person pieces of paper mixed with pieces of wood and ask him to burn these papers and wood and use them as bukhoor (incense,
fumigation) to fumigate himself with the smoke. And these papers are likely to be pages of the Qur'an torn into small pieces.
He may give him the skin of an animal (like a fox or wolf or jackal), or its teeth and ask him to carry them, or he may give him black threads, or
cords to hang in his car.
He may ask the person to wear a garment he gives him and ask him to wear it on a specific defined days, and the garment will be filled with
talismans and amulets (they will be stitched into the garment).
He may give the person a ring to wear onto which talismans are etched, or a small padlock with its key inserted around which a talisman is attached
with sellotape. And other odd things like this.
From the signs of the magician is belittlement of the Qur'an and its desecration, and this takes place in many ways.
These signs are found amongst many people claiming to be "faith-healers", and they come out in the garb of faith, pretending to be pious, and they
place advertisements in the papers and on the radio and television (in some Muslim lands) and in the Western lands also. So you should beware of
these liars and worshipers of the devils, and warn everyone against them - to see how these people became magicians in the first place, read the

not necessarily sihr. It is permissible in shariah in asking the name of the patient and his/her mother's names.
Please see link below
Q - Why do some Islamic healers ask for the patient's name and his/her mother's name ? Is is permissible ?
