Milan (Mutkarni): The Maran Technique That Calls a Victim by Name

What is the Bhagatwal tradition's Maran process, and does it always require a physical medium?

No — sometimes a practitioner's worshipped Siddha deities act directly with no medium required at all, while other times a medium (an item from the target's body, clothes, or the soil under their feet) is needed, depending on the guru tradition and capacity of the practitioner.

In the field of Tantra and Bhagatvaal, there are various regional Shatkarmas (six karmic actions). Among these, particularly when a tantrically-inclined person performs a Maran (killing/destruction) act, there are many types of processes according to variations in guru traditions. Sometimes Maran is performed using a method that requires no material object or physical medium — the worshipped Siddha deities are so powerful that they act directly upon the target without any medium. Other times a medium is required: an item related to the target's body, their clothes, or the soil particles under their feet. The objectives, reasons, and objects required can all differ, but people attempt to complete the Maran ritual according to their own capacity.

What regional names does this Milan/Mutkarni/Handi process go by, and where is it practiced?

In the Bhagatwal region across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, this process is called Mutkarni or Muth in some places, Maran through a Handi (earthen pot) in others, and 'killing by sending Milan' specifically in Bihar and Uttar Pradesh.

In this same domain of regional traditions, in the region of Bhagatwal across Uttar Pradesh and Bihar, a process is practiced that is given different names in different areas: in some places it is called operating 'Mutkarni' or 'Muth'; in some places, Maran performed through a 'Handi' (earthen pot). A variation specific to Bihar and Uttar Pradesh is called 'killing by sending Milan' (Milan Bhejkar Marna) — a tantric process in which a Bhagatwal-associated Tantrik combines and projects energy upon the target such that the power pierces them in the very form given to that power.

Why is the process called 'Milan,' and why is it deliberately deceptive about the cause of death?

The name comes from the form defined during the ritual's resolve (Sankalpa); the entire process — offerings and sacrifices before projecting the energy — is deliberately staged so that when the targeted person dies, Tantra is never identified as the real cause.

Whatever form is defined during the resolve (SankalpaA formal ritual resolution spoken aloud before an offering or observance, declaring its intent and dedicating its merit.) — although the entire process remains of a Tamasic nature — by offering sacrifices (Bali) and offerings (Bhog) before projecting that energy onto the targeted person, a specific ritual is performed using an intermediate medium. The act is conducted so that Tantra is never considered the cause of the targeted person's death; whenever the cause is searched for after death, it should never appear that the real cause was a tantric process. In a way, this is a deception.

What is the first stage of a Milan attack: calling by name?

The target is called by name, usually at night, in the voice of someone familiar — their child, friend, or family member; others present may hear the name too, but the call specifically targets that one individual.

First, whenever this process is performed on someone, the target person is called by their name — the projected energy invokes them by name. The time can be anything, but especially night. The voice that calls will always belong to a familiar person: the voice of their child, a familiar friend, their son, brother, or father. It is not that only the targeted person hears it — many times this voice is heard by everyone present together, though the name's pronunciation is specific to the one being called. If that person steps out immediately upon being called, harm can be done to them; when they step outside, they will see no one.

What determines whether someone survives after stepping outside in response to a Milan call?

Survival depends on preparation — the status of one's protective deities, whether the home is bound/shielded, whether one wears a protective Kavach, and whether one is a practitioner or an ordinary person; without these, there is an 80-85% chance survival becomes difficult once fully within the ritual's reach.

Whether someone survives depends on their preparation: the status of their protective deities, whether their home is bound/shielded (Bandhan), whether they have a protective armor (Kavach) on their body, and whether they are a practitioner or an ordinary person. If good karma and protective deities are capable, one may survive even after going outside — otherwise, there is an 80% to 85% chance that if the ritual has been fully executed and one steps within its reach, survival becomes difficult.

What is the second stage of a Milan attack — the strike (Ghat)?

Once the target has been called outside, the second stage is the strike — the form envisioned during the ritual's resolve, such as a tantric serpent, appears before them.

The first stage is complete once the target is called outside. The second stage is striking them (Ghat): when they come outside, the form envisioned during the resolve will appear before them. Elderly saints in India frequently mention that sorcery/occult attacks were repeatedly carried out against them using tantric snakes — referred to regionally in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar as Milan.

How does a Milan attack using serpent energy mimic a real snakebite death with no medical trace?

If serpent energy is used, a serpent appears before the person regardless of whether it actually bites — the resulting death shows all the chemical changes of a real snakebite, but medical examination finds no actual bite location.

If the energy of a serpent is used in Milan, a serpent will appear in front of the person — whether it bites or not does not matter. If the person comes out of their boundary after being invoked through mantra methods, that energy impacts them. Even without an actual snake bite, the cause of death will look exactly as if bitten by a snake, with all the chemical changes a real snakebite would produce present in the body. However, when examining the body, medical science fails to find where the snake actually bit.

When are Milan attacks especially likely to occur?

Especially around Navratri, Diwali, Amavasya, or Purnima — a familiar voice calls someone from outside the house by name as the first stage.

Many people observe that when Milan is sent repeatedly against a household in this region, it is especially around Navratri, Diwali, or Amavasya and Purnima that a familiar voice calls someone from outside the house by their name — the first stage of the attack.

How does a practitioner gain mastery (Siddhi) over the Milan technique using a cremation Handi?

During a specific Nakshatra, the practitioner follows the corpse of a specific caste to the cremation ground, acquires the earthen pot (Handi) carrying fire from that person's home, and cooks Urad lentils in that fire to gain mastery over Milan.

Those who attain mastery (siddhi) over this perform specific rituals — items from cremation grounds (Masan) are specifically used, related to the practice of operating a Handi. During a specific NakshatraOne of the 27 lunar constellations used to time rituals — certain occult procedures, such as acquiring a cremation Handi, must be performed within a specific Nakshatra's window., when a corpse is being taken to the cremation ground, the practitioner observes the caste of the deceased; if the corpse belongs to specific castes, the practitioner intending to master this ritual follows behind it. In Sanatana DharmaThe 'eternal law' — the traditional name for the Vedic-Puranic-Tantric religious and philosophical tradition now commonly called Hinduism., when someone dies, fire is carried from the home in an earthen pot (Handi) — the practitioner attempts to acquire that Handi, and while the specific Nakshatra persists, uses its burning fire to cook Urad (black gram) lentils inside it, then stores the cooked Urad. This is the first stage of mastery.

Why does the Milan effect only last a limited period, and what happens after three failed attempts?

The entire process of Milan operates through the influence of the stored Urad grains, so its effect only lasts a limited period; if the ritual is executed against someone three times and fails all three, the same practitioner cannot attempt a fourth time — someone else must do it, or the entire preparatory procedure must be repeated.

Through the influence of the Urad grains cooked in the acquired Handi, the entire process of Milan is operated — this is why the effect lasts only a limited period. If this experiment is executed against a target three times and fails all three times, the practitioner cannot perform it a fourth time themselves; a fourth attempt must be done by someone else, or the practitioner must repeat the entire preparatory procedure.

What precaution should be taken at night if an occult attack is suspected, and what happens if the ritual fails?

Never step outside immediately upon hearing a call at night — ask 'Who is it?' first, since a normal person will respond; even if spiritual practice prevents the ritual from fully succeeding, it can still severely harm health and cause critical, near-death illness.

If occult actions are suspected, exercise caution at night when someone calls — do not go out immediately upon hearing a call once; ask "Who is it?" A normal person will respond. Do not open the door at night or during the afternoon without asking, nor step out directly while half-asleep. Even if this ritual does not fully succeed due to one's spiritual practices, it can severely harm health and cause critical illness, resulting in intense, near-death suffering.
