Misconception: only my ishta is supreme, and no other deity's name may be taken
The speaker says you may hold your own aradhya supreme for yourself — but forcing it on others, insisting that all other deities are mere servants, is foolishness: the pramanas by which other devi-mahashaktis are shown supreme exist everywhere, and one must accept those too. He has seen people in live videos forbid their own children to take Bhagavati's name and forbid the worship of Hanuman ji; he calls this a nikrisht tendency. An institution may have begun with a good acharya and later grown distorted — avoid any place where such teaching is given.
Bound from every side: Hanuman anushthan
Asked which puja to do in Shiv Navratri when one has been bound from every side, the speaker says: for release from bandhan, Hanuman ji — Shiv-bhakt, Shiv-avatar, Rudra-avatar — is fully capable; he who can free the nine grahas from bandhan, why would he not free you and me? In such a specially difficult situation, do a Hanuman-related anushthan.
Hanuman worship through Chaitra Navratri, Pratipada to Chaitra Purnima
The speaker says every home must worship Hanuman in chaitra-navratri, daily from Pratipada up to Chaitra Purnima, which is Hanuman Jayanti; this brings many benefits, and worshipping him with a proper vidhi for one wish brings many more. The ways he gives, from simplest up: reciting Hanuman Chalisa, which is enough if that is all one does, but must be done; the Havan of the Chalisa by the vidhi he has taught; archana with his 108 names using flowers or tulsi leaves, two or three minutes, which pleases him greatly; and for a wish, archana with his Sahasranama from Pratipada to Purnima, which he says Hanuman certainly fulfils. If Bhagavati Anjani, his mother, is worshipped and remembered alongside, nothing can stop the work from being done, since mother and son are both being served.
Hanuman and Bhairav are worshipped before the Devi: they secure her place
The speaker says one need not know much Tantra to see this: even in ordinary puja, when the Devi is invited and the Durga Chalisa is recited, it says "Langur Veer karat agwani", Langur Veer, that is Hanuman, leads the way and goes first. Wherever Jagdamba or her partial shaktis are about to come, Langur Veer reaches first and oversees the whole place; the responsibility for its security rests on Hanuman and on Bhairava. So the worship of both becomes essential, and because Hanuman comes first, his worship and Bhairav's worship are to be done before the Devi's own.
Hanuman's dhwaja on Ram Navami and Chaitra Purnima
The speaker says that on two days, Ram Navami and Chaitra Purnima, Hanuman's dhwaja is worshipped in a special way. He leaves the vidhi for a separate video, but says that on Ram Navami in particular one must put up Hanuman's dhwaja at one's own home.
Minimum Bhairav worship in Navratri
The speaker says that alongside Hanuman, Bhairava must also be worshipped in Navratri according to one's capacity. At the very least one should remember him, do japa of his name-mantra, and light a Chaumukh Deepak lamp in his name. The reason he gives is that these two shaktis are the ones who carry out all of Bhagavati's work, and the responsibility of protecting her devotees rests on them; so both are to be worshipped in Navratri without fail.
Does reciting protective mantras or a Kavach quietly (in a low voice) in a temple still work?
Yes — reciting seed mantras and protective texts like Hanuman Kavach quietly in a temple is fully effective, and is recommended over reciting loudly in a public space where it may alarm other people.
Batuk Bhairav anushthan: venue, length of the sankalpa, dress, asan and daily materials
The speaker says the Batuk Bhairav Hridaya Stotra anushthan is done at home only if the house is free of abhichar and the trouble is on your body alone; if the house itself is afflicted, do it at a Shiva, Mahakali or any temple — even a Hanuman temple — and the first anushthan should be done outside in any case. Take a Sankalpa of 11 or 21 days; if the abhichar is heavy, take a small 11-day one first and 21 days the next time. Wear yellow or red — a suit or sari for women — and sit on a wool, red or yellow blanket, or kusha asan, facing the deity, no direction rule. Each day you need two or three cow-dung cakes, a little ghee and camphor for a small Havan at the temple, Gangajal, a sweet Bhog — raisins, or a meetha rot of wheat flour kneaded with jaggery and ghee — and for the sankalpa a coin, a flower and unbroken basmati rice dyed yellow with turmeric as Akshat. At a Hanuman temple the bhog goes to Hanuman with a Tulsi leaf, and the same bhog is set in Bhairav's name where you sit; Bhairav's bhog is never eaten by you during the anushthan — with a little gangajal on it, it is fed to any dog near the temple.
What is the most effective remedy during Saturn's planetary period (Shani Dasha)?
Strict adherence to discipline, routine, and righteous conduct (Niyama) is the most effective remedy — practiced before sunrise or at twilight, alongside reciting the Shani Ashtakam and performing Anushthana of Hanuman or the Divine Mother for swift relief.
Chamunda sandhi puja bali vidhan: the lamps, sankalp, offerings and aarti in order
The speaker gives the procedure. First light one of the three single-wick diyas and invoke Bhagwati Durga as Jatved Agni into its flame; that is the Karmasakshi Deepak from which every other lamp is lit. Holding Akshat, flowers, water and Dakshina, take Sankalpa with name, Gotra and place: to worship Bhagwati Chamunda in the Sandhi Kaal as far as one's ability, understanding and available upacharas allow, for the destruction of all one's enemies and of every tantric scheme and conspiracy worked against one. From the Jatved lamp light the first single-wick lamp in the Guru's name and the second in Ganesha's; then the eleven Chaumukh Deepak diyas in a row before the banana leaf — the nine in the middle are the nine forms of Chamunda, the one on one's left is Hanuman ji, the last on the right Batuk Bhairava — lit in that order: Hanuman, the nine, Batuk Bhairav last. Before every lamp place one coconut and one lemon, sprinkle all with Gangajal and give each a fine red Sindoor tilak. Holding akshat and flowers recite the Tantrokta Devisuktam — the recitation by which Kaushiki was invoked — and offer the flowers. Then the Bali: offer every coconut first, in the same order (guru, Ganpati, Hanuman, the nine Durgas, Batuk Bhairav), then cut each lemon standing upright, applying Roli and dropping a little water three times beside each from an Achamana spoon. Any stuti may follow; before Aarti set one camphor with two flowered cloves before every lamp and light it, then do aarti and Kshama Prarthana. The lemons are immersed under a sacred tree or in a river; the coconuts are eaten only by the household, never by outsiders. By Jagadamba's grace, he says, Chamunda destroys many troubles, sorrows and crises in a moment.
How can one protect oneself from black magic or Vashikaran?
Strengthen your vital energy (Prana) by taking complete refuge in your primary deity and performing extended spiritual disciplines (Anushthan); for protection through Hanuman specifically, 108 recitations of Hanuman Chalisa across 11 consecutive Saturdays with fire offerings (Homa) is prescribed.
Child-form deities block the masanik forces used in Tantra and abhichar
The speaker says that whenever Tantra or abhichar is used, masanik shaktis are employed — raw kalwas, Masan and the like — and these enter a house easily. The great shaktis, being in child form, are not stopped by a mere such yoni. Where Batuk Bhairava is present and his seva-puja keeps going, a check is put on those forces through him; complete protection, he says, comes only because of Bhairava ji — Bhairav in bal form, in Batuk form, or the bal form of Hanuman ji or of Ganesha ji.
Dropping the family's Hanuman or Ram darbar worship for a guru's puja
The speaker describes what is going on everywhere today: a home has had one murti of Hanuman ji or a Ram darbar established and served for generations; a little trouble arises at work; the family goes to some heavily-marketed Guru ji seen on YouTube, brings his photo, mala and yantra, installs them and starts guru-puja, believing it will set everything right. Whether guru-puja does anything is a separate delusion, he says, but the deity by whose grace three or four generations advanced, whose form you change and whose puja-path you stop over one small thing, will start giving you trouble — and it will not be Bhagwan Shri Ram who comes to give it. He adds that this is where bhav-pradhan versus karma- or kriya-pradhan worship enters: the daily bhog at a fixed hour and the daily Ramavatar path were kriyas that mattered.
The subtle presence of ganas around household worship, and their anger when it is abandoned
The speaker says that wherever Shri Ram is praised and Ramayana or Ramcharitmanas chaupais and shlokas are read, Hanuman ji comes to listen in subtle form — or, if the bhakti is high, even directly in some other form. Rudra's Ganas attend in part, since Narayana is dear to Shiva; Hanuman's servants — the lok-devatas and above all his vanar ganas — are present everywhere and go daily and regularly, in subtle form, wherever Shri Ram is worshipped. Likewise the servants and lok-ganas of a Mahavidyas go where she is worshipped, so their coming and going is continuous. If then, because of some karma or Prarabdha, six months or a year of business loss or family trouble comes and one drops all of it — no more Ramavatar, shlokas, stotras, havan — for guru ji's paduka puja on the theory that "the whole brahmand is worshipped at guru ji's feet", the deities who were always present there become angry: "how can you think of insulting my upasak?" Then the real trouble begins, no guru ji can save you, and faith collapses on every side.
A water Abhisheka on Shiva alongside the rite, and severe recoil on the practitioner if an innocent is struck
A water Abhisheka on Lord Shiva should be performed alongside the ritual; if an innocent person is accidentally harmed by a potent mantra, the spiritual recoil onto the practitioner is severe — mantra practice must never be treated as a casual experiment.
The roti-vidhi remedy works on grahas, Hanuman ji and chalisa-siddhi at once
The roti-vidhi taught earlier on the channel works on several fronts at once: it pacifies an afflicted Rahu, Chandra or Shani, pleases Hanuman ji since it makes full use of Bhagwan Ram's name, and additionally helps toward the siddhi of the Hanuman Chalisa itself.
In Hanuman ji's beej mantra, is it the makar or the gakar?
Asked whether Hanuman ji's mantra takes "hum" or the other syllable, the speaker says that if one is doing it by the tantrokta vidhi, it should generally be spoken in the makar — that is, "hum". Some forms will carry the gakar instead; which it is depends on the mantra.
One clove for Hanuman ji, or a matched pair?
Whether one clove or a matched pair is offered to Hanuman ji depends on which particular vidhi is being performed; in the Balaji svarup, generally one is offered, but where an "utara" rite is involved, two are offered.
Can a generations-lapsed kul-devta vow be resumed?
A devotee learns his great-grandfather once performed a large-scale rot offering to Hanuman ji, discontinued for three or four generations. The speaker confirms it can be resumed — since Hanuman ji is the kul devta, rot should indeed be offered — ideally begun on a suitable tithi like Chaitra Purnima, with kshama-yachna for the years it lapsed.
If Hanuman ji is the kul-devta, who is the kul-devi?
Where Hanuman ji is the kul devta, what form the accompanying kul devi takes is worth knowing rather than assuming — because in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar particularly, a local folk devi is usually worshipped alongside Hanuman ji in her Sati svarup.
Fragrance, unbroken rice and flowers go to the family deity at the first lamp, and to Ram, Sita, Shatrughna, Bharata, Lakshmana and Hanuman by name at the second
At the first lamp, offer fragrance, unbroken rice, and flowers at the family deity's feet; at the second, offer unbroken rice and flowers individually in the names of Lord Ram, Sita, Shatrughna, Bharata, Lakshmana, and Hanuman.
What temple-visit completion ritual follows the Hawan on Ram Navami?
Offer the results at home first to an idol of Ram, Narayana, or Shiva, then visit a Ram temple with incense, lamp, rice, food offerings, and a flower garland — offering Hanuman bread and attire if present, and hosting his victory flag at home.
Can Sanatana deities counter hostile occult practices regardless of their origin?
Every deity in Sanatana Dharma possesses weapons and the capacity to neutralize hostile or negative occult influence, regardless of its origin — Hanuman, Narasimha, Sudarshana, Garuda, and Bagalamukhi all possess full capability to eliminate any negative occult entity or influence.
Mantra dosh from careless use of a siddha mantra: jhada given to a menstruating woman
The speaker says that once a mantra is siddha, most mistakes happen in the phase of using it, and these make it ineffective. His example: a man who has a siddha Hanuman Sabar Mantra gives a Jhada to a woman of his own family who is unwell, and she is menstruating at the time — then the mantra becomes ineffective and dosha-ridden, and the man himself incurs Dosha. He calls this one cause among many, says a mantra should be used only with full knowledge, and says that whenever such acts, knowing or unknowing, have reduced a mantra's capacity, the Holika-night restoration vidhan should be done.
Holi-day follow-up by deity after the Holika-night mantra offering
The speaker says that on the day after the Holika-night offering — on Holi itself, without fail — the mantra's own deity must be given its favourite flower or leaf with the mantra spoken over it nine times. For a Bhairava mantra, a Bilva leaf recited over nine times is offered to Bhairav along with his puja; for a Hanuman mantra, a Tulsi leaf recited over nine times is offered and puja given at a Hanuman temple; for a Durga mantra, a bilva leaf with the mantra is offered to her at home and her puja given at a temple, with shringar included. After this, he says, the mantra gives effect again whenever it is used in whatever way it was used before.
Mahavidya and Hanuman prayogs against a bhagatwal chowki are done step by step, never directly
The speaker says that if the afflicted family finds a Mahavidyas sadhak or some strong sadhak, he does all the ordinary kaat measures and, alongside, uses his Mahavidyas and tells them to do kalpa vidhans too. But such things are never applied directly in tantra; it is always step-wise. For a person whose body is in pain, using them straight away is wrong and causes trouble — there is a small vidhan, but it is there: first do Bhairav ji's puja and Bali in a set way, then install even a small ansh of a temple at home, and only then proceed. Then bandhan shaktis are used — even Hanuman ji, if a good Hanuman sadhak is found: the Panchmukhi Hanuman or Ekadash-mukhi Hanuman vajra kavach and havan prayogs are taught and taken up as an anushthan, after which the shaktis the wrong bhagat had set on the house start getting beaten by Hanuman ji, the guard of Hanuman ji's dutas falls on the house, or the family obtains such protection from a properly awakened shakti-peeth such as Balaji, and the house is protected.
Why a malevolent bhagatwal chowki collapses: beaten shaktis refuse their word
The speaker says a wrong bhagat does not harm one family only; he has attacked ten for money, and if five of them fight back with Mahavidya, Hanuman or Durga path and havan taken up with sankalp, his shaktis get beaten wherever they go — thrashed by Hanuman ji, blasted by Bhagavati Baglamukhi, struck by Bhairav's staff, or torn apart by higher tantric shaktis, negative though those may be — through yantra, mantra, stotra anushthan, Vedic or tantric means. After two, three or four years of this the shaktis weaken and say, why should we get kicked doing your work; a pret is a subtle body still ruled by the mind it had as a human, so it will not stay loyal. This is why in bhagatwal a shakti "leaves" even when it was firm in its word: it stops helping, goes and does not return. Then the bhagat's body suffers, his house has trouble, there is no growth of his line, and the chowki finally becomes worthless, because he never served the Mahashaktis and had no tapoguna. Ruin is completed if a disciple betrays him or if, being bound by word, he can neither hand his shaktis on nor do their Visarjan.
Hanuman placed in the Nairritya corner of Guhya Kalika worship, with some Nitya sadhanas open only to the married
In esoteric worship of Mahakalika and Guhya Kalika, Hanuman is venerated — often positioned in the Nairritya corner — and certain esoteric Nitya sadhanas require completed householder (married) status to be eligible, based on the traditional narrative of Hanuman and Suvarchala.
Scope of the Hanuman Badvanal Vidya: siddhi methods and prayogas
The speaker says Shri Hanuman's Badvanal Vidya is so vast that it cannot be squeezed into a few words. He says it has a brief siddhi method and an extended one, each giving a different level of effect, and that the siddhi method and the Prayoga method are separate matters from its benefits. He lists the prayogas it has: against Abhichara, for an old pishach dosh, for freedom from debt, for curing disease, for Griha Bandhan and for Kavach protection, each with its own vidhan.
Take refuge in one of Jagadamba's four Veeras: Hanuman, Bhairav, Narasimha or Ganapati
The speaker says that those who serve and worship Shri Ma Jagadamba must take refuge in at least one of her four Veeras, the four Mahashaktis who stand as Veer and Gana: Hanuman, Bhairava, Bhagwan Narasimha or Ganesha. He says one should try to attain siddhi of that one Veera's vidya by the extended vidhan, and that Hanuman's Badvanal Vidya is one such route. He says whoever takes Hanuman's refuge and does these vidhans can have every kind of suffering and dosh in life removed by this single Anushthana, and that keeping it for life brings many benefits.
Badvanal for physical weakness and constant groundless fear
The speaker says the first benefit is for a person whose body lacks strength and capacity and who stays afraid all the time: fear that someone will beat him, fear at home, at the workplace, among friends and in society, an unknown fear he cannot climb out of, what is called a phobia. He says that for freedom from this fear, if one completes the whole Badvanal Anushthana of Hanuman, the benefit is very great and fear goes far away.
Badvanal for disease traced to a kundali dosh and for all graha doshas
The speaker says that if illness or grief has come into life and an astrologer has told the person that a particular dosh in the kundali is causing the bodily disorder, the Badvanal Anushthana can be done to remove it. He says it is used to remove any dosh of the kundali, whether the dosh is bodily or of any other kind, and every kind of Graha Dosha. He says this is because Hanuman is a Mahashakti, and through this stotra the doshas of the Navagraha can be removed.
Badvanal for removing a shraap, including one that blocks mantra siddhi
The speaker says that if, knowingly or unknowingly, in this birth or a past one, a person harmed someone and got a Shraap because of it, and that shraap has brought disease, pain, grief, calamity or obstruction into the body and life, Badvanal is used for the removal of that shraap. He adds that very often a mantra does not give siddhi even after a long japa anushthana, and it is said this too happens because of shraap dosh; for that as well Badvanal can be used.
Badvanal for victory in a false lawsuit or state prosecution
The speaker says that if someone has trapped a person in a false case, even a case like sedition or a state case, what was once called appearing in the royal court and today means appearing in a court of law, then sadhana of Badvanal brings victory there. He says the person will not only come out of the false case, but the one who is actually the offender will also receive proper punishment in due course. He says Shri Hanuman will certainly protect the person.
Badvanal for a way out of crushing debt
The speaker says that when debt has grown far beyond need, the person cannot get out and no path can be seen, he should keep doing the Anushthana through Badvanal, taking the refuge of Shri Hanuman, and Hanuman will surely open a path. He warns not to give up effort (purushartha): whatever path begins to show, throw yourself into it. He says money will not appear in front of you, but a path will come by which you become free of the debt.
Badvanal for dosh of bhoot, pret, dakini, shakini, brahmarakshas, baital and water upadevatas
The speaker says that if, while walking on roads and ghats, or already in the house, or for any other reason, the dosh of a bhoot, Preta, dakini, Shakini, Brahmarakshas or Baital, or the dosh of water deities and Upadevata of that kind, is present on the body, the Badvanal Anushthana can be done for its removal.
Special case: a generational Brahma Pishacha dosh lifted by one descendant's Badvanal
The speaker says that even the oldest Brahma Pishacha Dosha, the kind called a family Brahma that has stuck to a lineage and passed from the first generation to the second and the third, can be dealt with. He says if in that kul even one person is born who takes the refuge of Hanuman and worships him through this stotra, that person becomes able, by Hanuman's grace, to protect his whole kul.
Badvanal to bind and uproot abhichar done by enemies or hired tantriks
The speaker says that if a person has enemies of a very low nature who keep using kshudra tantra, who get prayogas done on him through tantriks or do them themselves, deceitful and wicked people from whom Abhichara is coming continuously, then he can take the shelter of Hanuman's Badvanal. He says it is used for Bandhan of their vidyas, bandhan of their shaktis, and to destroy the whole vidya and the abhichar from the root.
Badvanal against enemies who grab land or property by force, politics, police or goons
The speaker says that if enemies want to trouble a person on the strength of their stick, their muscle, their political reach, their reach in the police and administration or their goons, and want to grab his land or occupy his house, home or shop, and he has no means of getting help from such powerful people himself, then he should take the help of Hanuman through this Anushthana. He says that if Hanuman shows grace and the anushthana is done well, the bad days of the person doing this will certainly begin.
Badvanal for a pret or pishach riding a person's body: done outside the house, under guidance
The speaker says that if a Preta or Pishach is playing on someone's body, however big the pret or pishach may be, and one does this Anushthana outside the house and then applies its Prayoga, removal is 100 percent possible and the person will certainly be freed. He adds a precaution: the prayoga vidhi should be done through someone knowledgeable, or only after understanding everything fully.
Badvanal against Sifli tantra, Sayyad, Jinn and Peer dosh
The speaker says that where Islamic tantra has been used, whether Sifli Tantra, a Sayyad on someone, Jinn and jinnat, that sort of dosh, or Peer Dosha, and it has reached the point of tormenting the person completely, or such an Islamic dosh has settled in the house and the tantra just cannot be cut, one should do the Anushthana of the Badvanal and then apply its Prayoga. He says this stotra has such capacity that the biggest jinn and jinnat are dealt with and all the needed karmas get done, provided it is done according to the vidhi.
Badvanal for a painful prarabdha and for mental strength after an offence
The speaker says that if some earlier karma of ours has shaped a Prarabdha that is now causing trouble, this Anushthana is also done for its removal, that is, for paap kshaya. He says that if a person has committed some offence that leaves guilt in the mind, and the mind has grown weak and fearful as it does after wrongdoing, then after doing Prayashchitta he should do the anushthana of this stotra; Hanuman gives mental strength, force and his own capability, and the person walks his path rightly again. He adds that the adharmic act must not be repeated.
Badvanal for competitive exams, interviews and other seemingly impossible dharmic tasks
The speaker says that if a person wants to sit a competitive exam and is not getting success, or faces something that looks like an impossible (asadhya) task, whether a competitive exam, cracking an interview, or any other very complex and difficult work in any field, then, provided the work is dharma-yukta, he may do this Anushthana for it too. He says benefit will surely come and Hanuman surely helps.
Powers after siddhi of Badvanal: kavach for others, griha bandhan and destroying bhoomi dosh
The speaker says that beyond the benefits already listed, if a person attains siddhi of this vidya, Badvanal contains such vidyas that he can make a Kavach and the like for another person as well. He says Hanuman grants the capability to do Griha Bandhan and griha rakshan, and to stand in a Bhoomi Dosha where the biggest pret or pishach is present, for example land under which a bone is buried; if the anushthana has been done properly and Hanuman's grace obtained, the person himself becomes able to destroy such a bhoomi dosh.
Hanuman's tantrokta kavachas and yantras on bhojpatra, energised by the Badvanal stotra
The speaker says Hanuman has many tantrokta kavachas and Yantras. He says they are made on Bhojpatra at a specific time, then given siddhi and made abhimantrit with this very Badvanal mantra and stotra in a specific Nakshatra or Parva Kala. He says if such a Kavach is filled into a gold or silver case and worn, or put on someone else, it gives special benefits of many kinds; this too becomes possible for one who does this anushthana.
Puranic precedents that deities can be bound: Hanuman by Meghanad, Mahakali by Malla and Mani
To those who laugh at the idea that anyone could bind a devi-devata, the speaker answers from the Puranic accounts: see how Hanuman ji was bound by Meghanada, and how Bhagavati Mahakali was imprisoned in their yantra and put into bandhan by the tantriks named Malla and Mani — which is why Bhagavan Shiva had to take the avatar of Martand Bhairav, an Aghora form. Something like these characters, he says, plays out in Kalikaal too among the deva shaktis and partial yoginis who sit in a kul and carry the family's nurture and protection.
How a kul deity is bound: an oath given through mantra, not a rope
The speaker says a person who has made some shakti siddha and taken it into vachan can bind another shakti with the same kind of vachan and dohai one sees in Sabar Mantras. Being bound does not mean tied with a rope: certain mantras are used to give a saugandh (oath), and the deity stops. His example: if Hanuman ji is the kul deity, he can be given Ram ji's shapath — the bajrang-baan too gives an oath, "you are sworn to accomplish our work". A sadhak who himself serves Hanuman, has done much japa-tapa, has a siddhi of one of Hanuman's veer-ganas or some other siddha deity, and bears you malice, puts that power forward and through his vachan and mantras and seva-puja stops the divine energies in your house: "do not attend to, do not hear, this family's matters until we release you". So the devi-devatas are bound in vachan, in the ordinary way. For shaktis of the upadeva category, he adds, the matter is different and is covered in a separate video.
Freeing a bound Hanuman through Ram: japa, Ram Raksha Stotra, Ramcharitmanas and havan
If Hanuman ji is the worshipped deity and has been bound, the speaker says, the remedy works through Ram ji, because Hanuman listens to Ram and the matter turns on Ram ji's dohai. One should do japa of the name of Bhagavan Shri Ramchandra ji Maharaj, recite the Rama Raksha Stotra and the like in his name, recite the Ramayan and the Ramcharitmanas, and do Havan with some of its chaupais and mantras, so that Shri Ram ji, being pleased, frees Hanuman from the bandhan.
The most effective kavach against bhoot-pret is your own ishta's
Asked which Kavach is most effective for freedom from bhoot-pret effects, the speaker says: the kavach of your own Ishta Devata, the one you trust most and about whom you have no doubt. His own ishta is Hanuman ji, in whom he has full faith, so for him it is the Hanuman Chalisa; done alone it is the best method, and after that an ordinary sadhak needs no other kavach at all. So awaken the kavach of your ishta.
Kaal sarp dosh or a heavy Mars: Hanuman and Shiva sadhana are sufficient
Asked by someone with Kaal Sarp Dosh and a heavy Mangal who already does Shiva sadhana whether that is sufficient, the speaker says yes: the sadhana of Hanuman ji and Shiva ji is sufficient — just keep doing it in rhythm.
What are the remedies for intense occult afflictions involving Veera Shakti?
Recite the Shiva Raksha Stotra and take complete refuge in Shiva, or perform a milk-stream purification (Dugdha-Dhar Utra) at the home's threshold at dusk while invoking Narasimha and Hanuman — alternatively, offer daily worship to Narasimha, consume Charanamrita, and wear offered Tulsi on the head.
Seven lemon lamps for Shani: how the deepdaan is made and offered
The speaker says that each day of the anushthan, four raw greenish lemons are halved, seven halves are hollowed out and filled with pure til oil (or mustard oil with a pinch of black til), and two wicks of torn black cotton are set in each — seven lamps, fourteen wicks. The path may be done in the morning but evening is best; do the path first, then the Deepdaan. In a 21-day run where lemons are not available daily, do it at least on Saturdays; in a 7-day run, every evening. The lamps are set at a Shami tree, or at the home puja place or by Hanuman's flag on a spot cleaned with cow dung; with Akshat, black til and a one-rupee coin in hand one takes a Sankalpa of seven lamps for Shani's full grace, good fruit and release from his cruel gaze, sets the rice on a plate and lights all seven. Done with the path, he says, this brings very fast benefit, for Shani acts slowly but his effect lasts long.
Women can perform the Bajrang Baan siddhi: Hanuman is a deity, not a man to be feared
The speaker says a woman can absolutely do the bajrang-baan siddhi through Hanuman ji's puja — any woman, without any problem — so be at ease and do it without falling into delusion. Hanuman, he says, is a deity, a siddha devata, an avatar of Rudra, Maharudra; he is not a human being that people should be so afraid of him. So perform the siddhi comfortably and confidently.
Sankalp and opening puja for the eleven-day Bajrang Baan siddhi
The speaker says the first day's puja is done at a temple — "Ram" written on a Peepal leaf, or at least on five Tulsi leaves, offered there — after which one comes home, puts on red clothing, sits on a red woollen-blanket asana and does the usual Achamana and purification. Then, holding tulsi leaves, ₹11 and the coconut kept at home, one takes Sankalpa in plain Hindi (or Sanskrit if one knows it), pronouncing name, Gotra and place: for the grace of Hanuman ji, for the siddhi of the bajrang-baan and for its full effect whenever one uses it, to awaken it by 11 recitations daily for 11 days from today — 11 at least, or 21 or 27 as one's capacity allows, since the full Bajrang Baan is fairly long. Everything in the hand is set down by Hanuman ji unbroken; the coconut stays there. Before the sankalp a Karmasakshi Deepak must already be burning (one lit since morning is fine). Then guru and Ganesha puja, remembrance of the Kuldevi, and puja of the Ram darbar first — water sprinkled and tilak given to Shri Ram, Mata Janaki, Lakshman, Bharat and Shatrughna, on a vigraha if one has it, otherwise on the photo.
Daily puja of Hanuman's murti in the Bajrang Baan siddhi: avahan, abhishek, sindoor lepan, janeu and tilak
The speaker says Hanuman ji is invoked into his Shri vigraha if there is one; if only a photo, invoke him into a flower, place it on a plate before the photo and do the puja on that. A vigraha is given abhisheka with panchamrita, bathed with Gangajal and with agar, wiped well and set down, then given a Sindoor lepan: on a paan leaf mix chameli oil with orange sindoor and apply it over the whole vigraha from bottom to top. After the full lepan, put a Yajnopavita on Hanuman ji whether or not one wears one oneself. If the vigraha is large a new cloth may be put on him; otherwise a Kalava thread is worn as his vastra. Finally a tilak of Ashtagandha and a fine adornment.
Daily bhog, the five-grain dough lamp and the eleven paths with tulsi leaves in the Bajrang Baan siddhi
The speaker says the daily Bhog for the 11 days is two Laddus with a Tulsi leaf on top — fresh ones bought daily are better than a stock kept in the fridge, and home-made besan laddus are best. Then knead the five-grain flour prepared earlier with a little water, fairly stiff, mixing in a little ghee, and shape a fine ek-mukhi lamp — set in a large clay diya or on a plate so the oil does not leak — with the Kalava measured against one's own body as its wick; into it go 11 cloves, five black peppercorns, a little yellow mustard and one good camphor lump, every day. Light it in Hanuman ji's name at some distance from the vigrahas and cloth, since the dried dough will itself burn; it must be big enough to burn at least half an hour so the path can be completed. Then, after uttering Ram's name and meditating on Hanuman ji, recite: take one of the 11 tulsi leaves inscribed "Ram", do one complete bajrang-baan recitation, offer the leaf on Hanuman ji, and repeat 11 times.
Daily havan of the Bajrang Baan: an ahuti per chaupai, the whole lemon, aarti and dedication of merit
The speaker says a small daily Havan after the path is very good, because the bajrang-baan is a Sabar Mantra, unfailing and awakened, so its vidhan follows the sabar method (he refers to his separate video on sabar havan); otherwise light cow-dung cakes or a little mango wood in a clay or other vessel. Ghee and Guggul are mixed together and every Ahuti is given from that mix, by woman or man alike: one ahuti each in the name of the guru, Ganesha, the kuldevi-devata, and one for the Navagraha with "Om navgrahebhyo swaha"; then one ahuti per chaupai of the Bajrang Baan from first to last, ending each with "swaha". He adds that at least five ahutis to Ram ji must also be given daily — "Sitaramchandraya swaha", not "namah". When the ahutis are complete, a lemon (keep one; he forgot to list it) is cut and dropped whole, unsqueezed, into the havan itself, then pranam. Then Hanuman ji's Aarti, or an aarti shown five times with a camphor bearing two cloves; then Kshama Prarthana, and with water in the hand the whole day's japa and its merit is dedicated to Hanuman ji — saying "Jai Shri Ram" or whatever one has faith in — and poured into his right hand. Anyone who cannot do havan daily does it on the eleventh day after the 11 paths.
Eleventh day of the Bajrang Baan siddhi: final havan, gari-coconut purnahuti, temple puja and prasad
The speaker says that on the eleventh day, whatever weekday it falls on, after the 11 paths and the Havan (daily, or the last day's havan for those who did not do it daily) comes the Purnahuti, for everyone alike: after the lemon Nimbu Bali, take a small gari coconut — the kind gari oil is made from — cut it open at the end that was attached to the tree, fill it with kheer or with jaggery, wrap it in red cloth, set it on a paan leaf, speak the purnahuti mantra and place it in the fire last. Keep the gari small, since the havan vessel is small, so that it burns quickly and nothing is left. After dedication and aarti, go to the temple that day, do Hanuman ji's full puja there, and offer at least sava kilo (1.25 kg) of Laddus as one can — bring only a few home and ask the pandit to distribute the rest, or distribute them oneself to all present. The coconut kept since day one may be broken at home after the purnahuti, or offered at the temple, and eaten as Prasad by everyone — no restriction of woman or man. Done this way, he says, the bajrang-baan becomes awakened, siddha and chaitanya for the sadhak.
Prayoga of a siddha Bajrang Baan: mustard seeds or bhasma for a child with nazar
The speaker says that once the bajrang-baan is siddha, it can be used in various ways — for instance when a small child in the house is crying a lot and one suspects Nazar or the like. Take yellow mustard seeds in the hand and first speak the whole invocation: Ram's name must be taken — "O Ram ji, be gracious, Sitaram, Sitaram" — then "O Hanuman ji, I am reciting your Bajrang Baan; awaken it, make these seeds Abhimantran-charged and fully chaitanya; for the protection of (the child's name) and to remove whatever obstacle is on him I am using this — awaken it and accomplish my work." Then recite the Bajrang Baan once, pass the seeds over the child from head down, three or seven times or as one wishes, and take them outside the house and burn them. Bhasma can be charged the same way and applied to oneself for constant protection, or given to family members.
Prayoga of a siddha Bajrang Baan: the knotted red protection thread
The speaker says a thread is charged with eight knots — Hanuman ji being the giver of the eight siddhis and nine nidhis — and from eight up to eighteen knots may be tied, with as many recitations as knots. For someone in the family in distress, a child studying away from home who is having trouble, or a child frightened at night: on a Tuesday wash a red thread first with raw milk, then with Gomutra, then with panchamrita or else Gangajal; tie eight knots, and holding each knot, taking Ram ji's name, do one bajrang-baan recitation per knot — eight recitations in all. Then place it by Hanuman ji, show dhoop and deep, light two cloves on a camphor, pray to Hanuman ji, and tie the thread on the person; he will be fully protected.
Method for attaining divya drishti on one's own: hold one path, in anushthan blocks
The speaker says the one best, easy and correct way to attain Divyadrishti is to keep going with whatever single mantra, stotra or path one has taken up, until one's deity grants what one wants. His example is the Hanuman Chalisa: if one does one path, do 11 daily, but continuously; take a 90-day or 108-day Anushthana, complete it, then gap a few days. A grihastha who cannot keep Brahmacharya should take small blocks — 11 days observing it, then two to four days or a week of normal household life, then 11 days again, or one block every month — and keep the morning-evening process going on the remaining days too. The energy this continuity builds, he says, gives what one wants.
Relating a dream instruction to one's own situation before carrying it out
The speaker says that knowing all this, the first and last thing is to decide very thoughtfully in such conditions. When going to follow a dream instruction — a mantra to chant, a lamp to offer, Bhog and Prasad to place somewhere — one must first judge one's own present situation, because the dream will not state the reason behind the order. His example: a court case is running and the dream says to light Dhoop and a lamp at a Hanuman temple for five Tuesdays; the sadhak must relate the two, mention the false case and ask for release while lighting the lamp, and if possible sit and do Hanuman Chalisa or Sundarkand paath as capacity allows, properly and not in a hurry. Then, by the deity's grace, the matter is accomplished.
Why a deity sends its sadhak to another deity through a dream
The speaker explains with an analogy: an English teacher's favourite student has a problem in physics but dares not approach the strict physics teacher, so the English teacher speaks to that colleague on the student's behalf, and the student then gets special treatment, the work is done and their confidence grows. He says the same happens with one's Ishta Devata or ishta shakti: when it judges that a matter belongs to Hanuman ji's domain, it has its Gana and attendants deliver the message in the dream, and the petition is already lodged with Hanuman ji beforehand, so that when the sadhak goes and does the work, it gets done quickly.
Objecting to a dream instruction to worship a deity other than one's own
The speaker criticises 'over smart' people who, on receiving such a dream instruction, first go asking in ten places: we worship Durga ji, we worship Kali ji, why were we told about Hanuman ji, why should we worship him when he himself serves Kali ji? He calls this senseless prattle, and singles out present-day servants of Krishna ji as a case apart — having reached what he calls the utmost pitch of bhakti, they acknowledge nobody but Krishna ji. Making this kind of mistake, he says, is the sadhak's own problem.
Why do the devas allow a pishach into a sadhak's life?
The speaker says that unless a bhoot speaks in your ear you will not do fierce sadhana at all. Someone unafflicted will never take up Hanuman ji's sadhana or understand him. The devas certainly have the power to stop bhoot-pret, but they want you to become capable, so they place them in your life — and the fiercer a sadhak you have the capacity to become, the fiercer the pishach that appears in your life.
Deep daan for the protective deities is increased and given in pairs — two lamps each for Hanuman, Narsingh, Bhairav and Bhagavati.
Whenever such a state arises, the quantity of deep daan for the deities who preside over protection should be increased, and the deep daan should be done in pairs. Whether you do it for Hanuman ji, there will be two lamps for him; for Narsingh Bhagavan, two for him also; for Bhairav ji, two for him also; for Bhagavati, two for her also.
The beejakshar sadhana of Hanuman or Ram cannot be given at present — a state in which even medicine cannot be taken, since sleep would then end the sadhana.
The speaker says the beejakshar sadhana of Hanuman ji or of Ram ji is not possible to give at present. To a listener offering to send medicine he says that at present his state is not even one in which medicine can be taken — if medicine is taken, sleep will come, and then how will the sadhana be done? That too becomes an issue.
What is to be done on the Chaturdashi?
On the Chaturdashi, on the Sunday, you will do your morning pujan as usual. In the evening period, the Yam deepdaan will be special on that day. That day is also the Hanuman Janmotsav, so a special pujan of Bhagavan Hanuman ji may be done in the evening — offering the chola, doing deepdaan, doing a havan with the Chalisa at a Hanuman temple.
The Amavasya being nishith-vyapini and the Chaturdashi taken by udaya, both parvas fall well — so the Hanuman vrat and Janmotsav pujan are kept on the Monday.
For proof of this you may look at the divine kshetras where Hanuman ji's pujan is going to happen and where the Janmotsav is going to be celebrated, the speaker says; according to him too, wherever he has looked, this is what is being done. Because the Amavasya is nishith-vyapini and the Chaturdashi is being taken according to udaya, both parvas are becoming very beneficial for you. So those whose kuldevata is Hanuman ji, or who are going to celebrate his Janmotsav, or whose ishta aradhya he is, or who keep a vrat for him, or who are going to do the Chaturdashi pujan — all of them will keep the vrat on the Monday and do their special pujan on that same day.
Those keeping the five-day pujan tithi by tithi do the Chaturdashi and Hanuman pujan on the Sunday evening, with a Hanuman Chalisa havan if possible.
But those who are going to do the five-day pujan according to tithi, who are going to perform each day's pujan, should especially perform the Chaturdashi pujan on the Sunday evening and perform Hanuman ji's pujan too. There is no difficulty in doing it on the next day as well, but on that day do at least a brief pujan in the evening without fail. In the house, pujan for the sake of Hanuman ji should certainly take place on that day; if possible, do a havan with the Hanuman Chalisa.
What does the kripa of a deity actually mean?
The purport of Bhairav's kripa here is only this much, he says: the development of the qualities connected with him. He gives the parallel of Hanuman ji, who is a sevak — worship him and a swami-bhakti arises within; worship Bhairav ji and a bhava of samarpan is awakened, toward one's aradhya and toward one's family duties.
May Bhairav be given a place outside the house, and which lamp is lit?
If you have space outside the house, where you raise Hanuman ji's flag, you may give him a place there in the form of a trishul, as a symbol, at some good spot or in a pot. If you give him a separate sthan there, a lamp of mustard oil in his name should certainly be lit morning and evening.
Where do the tulsi patra and the bilva patra go?
After the five offerings, put one tulsi patra in it and offer it to Narayan as well. If the bhava arises in you that it has become Mai's jootha, then keep a separate naivedya for Narayan with the tulsi patra in it from the start, and let the naivedya for Bhagavati and her anga parivar — Bhairav ji, Shiva ji — be separate, with bilva patra in it.
What else can block such an entry into a household?
The second thing is that either Bal Hanuman ji or Batuk Bhairav ji is worshipped there, so that the tattva connected with them is present. If a man is a crorepati but has never once given an ahuti in Batuk Bhairav's name, has never taken his name, and the shri vigraha or temple is out of the question — then, the speaker asks, from where will these things be stopped? They will not be. Everything has its own science.
In what order should a beginner take up the different deities?
The speaker says that at the beginning one has to do the upasana of various kinds of mantra and various deities. One begins first with Ganpati, then Bhairav ji, then Hanuman ji, then Mahadev; then one comes to the main sadhana, and alongside it makes the kavach siddh, the astra mantras siddh, the khadgamala siddh and the hriday siddh.
How is the archan of Hanuman ji done?
Upon the Shri vigraha of Hanuman ji, by means of his 108 or 1008 names, with red akshat — that is, colour the rice with food colour, with good food colour — and rakt pushpa, red flowers; mixing them, do the archan with that.
What should one do if a kavach's pronunciation is too difficult?
If it feels difficult and doubt arises in the mind about doing it, if the pronunciation is not coming, do the paath once or twice, practise, learn it; and if it still does not happen, then leave it — there are a great many other vidhans to do. He points to the complete Hanuman Chalisa and the complete Bajrang Baan given on the channel, and to the Hanuman Janjira.
Why must a kavach or the Hanuman Chalisa be recited in veer bhava?
Because reciting it slowly will not give that much effect, but if you do it in an ugra bhava, in a veer bhava, then atma-bala grows strong from within, and these shaktis then become frightened and withdraw. But you will understand this only if you accept it. There is no standing, he says, for any negative shakti to mount upon you if you begin to do the Hanuman Chalisa well, in veer bhava.
Which deities receive sindoor?
To Ganpati ji red sindoor is offered; his tilak is done with red sindoor, and also with roli and kumkum. To Hanuman ji it is with the orange sindoor, and his whole body receives the lepan of it. Of Bhairav ji too — Batuk Bhairav ji and Kaal Bhairav ji — the sindoori murtis have sindoor offered on them. To Vishnu ji, roli and akshat, a roli tilak.
Can the Markat Hanuman kavach and Saraswati sadhana both be done in Navratri?
Asked whether the Markat Hanuman ji kavach and Saraswati can both be done in Navratri, he says absolutely, they can be done.
A white lotus mala is offered to the ishta, whichever deity it is — Lakshmi being a separate matter
If you do this, the speaker says, whether you are doing it for Shiva ji, for Hanuman ji, or for any other deity — and if for Lakshmi ji, then that is a different matter altogether. One further special thing: if a garland of white lotus can be obtained for your ishta aradhya whose mantra you are doing japa of, and if not, then whatever garland of lotus flowers can be obtained, and you offer it, then the grace of that deity is certainly obtained by you.
How do the rules on food cooked by a menstruating woman differ by tradition?
By the line one is initiated in. Vaishnava teachers hold the fault applies and it must be observed; in the Shakta and Kaula lines no special thought is needed, though her hands' service is still not taken, since she is held to become the form of Kamakhya.
Even the Hanuman Chalisa alone, kept daily for forty-one days
A practitioner who will do nothing else may keep the Hanuman Chalisa daily for forty-one days — best at night — and the speaker says they will feel Hanuman's grace themselves. The full rule still applies: Brahmacharya and the discipline over food.
What counts constitute accomplishment of the Hanuman Ashtottara Satanama?
Ten thousand for the basic accomplishment and forty thousand for complete accomplishment — performed while observing Brahmacharya and the rules governing food and drink.
Where Upadevatas are installed in a household, that sadhana at home may increase the trouble
Performing it at home will give the practitioner difficulty. Where Upadevatas are installed and the household's ancestors have not attained their course — with Tripindi Shraddha not yet possible — the speaker says taking up that sadhana in the house can increase the trouble rather than settle it.
Which Kavach gives the greatest effect, and what a Siddha Panchamukhi Hanuman Kavach does
Whichever deity the practitioner is surrendered to — that deity's Kavach will give the effect, because mantra, gem and herb act according to the disposition of the mind. Without Shraddha, 50,000 japa would work no better than 5,000.
Can a siddha mantra be used for jhada on a pregnant or menstruating woman?
The speaker says a sadhak who has been using his mantra for small household cures — abhimantrit water, Bhasma, a blow of breath — may one day use a sabar or tantrokta mantra of Hanuman or another rule-heavy deity to give Jhada to a woman it should not be used on: a woman more than three months pregnant, or one who is menstruating. Many such mantras are forbidden there, unless the mantra came through Guru Parampara with the guru's direction. For a menstruating woman in distress or under an upari badha, mantras of Parvati, Kamakshi or Durga are used instead. One mantra cannot be used on everyone for everything; used wrongly it becomes polluted and loses its effect.
Who are the four chief Veers of Bhagavati?
The puja of Batuk Bhairav ji in Navratri is extremely necessary; and chiefly, the speaker says, of Bhagavati's four ganas, the chief Veers — first Bhagavan Shri Ganpati ji, second Bhagavan Shri Batuk Bhairav ji, third Bhagavan Shri Mahavir Hanuman ji, and fourth Bhagavan Shri Narsingh ji. The puja of these four is compulsory.
Where is each of the four worshipped?
Bhagavan Ganpati's pujan at your main door, and at the pujan place near the kalash; Bhagavan Shri Batuk Bhairav ji's pujan also near the door, and near Bhagavati; Hanuman ji's pujan near Hanuman ji's dhwaja and near the kalash; and Bhagavan Narsingh's puja on the threshold of the main door of the house, on the dehli, on the chaukhat — and near Bhagavati.
What should be offered along with Narayan on Devshayani Ekadashi?
Along with it, do your own ishta-aradhya — if you worship Hanuman ji, then Hanuman ji after Narayan; if Bhagavati, then Bhagavati after Narayan. Men should do it with ghee and guggul; all the sadhikas and sisters should do it with havan samagri.
Why do some say the Panchmukhi Hanumat Kavach should not be recited?
Because it contains the description of the Markata form, which is taken there as a form of Markata Bhairava — an ugra form, called Masani Hanuman. The speaker's own answer to the objection is to say one is reciting it for the welfare of the whole world.
Each sadhak charges the material with his own aradhya's mantra — Datta, Ganpati, Bhairav, Hanuman, or whichever kavach of Bhagavati he holds.
Those whose aradhya is Bhagwan Datta, or who have particularly performed his anushthan, use his; those who worship Ganpati ji use Ganpati ji's mantra; those who have done a Bhairav ji anushthan use Bhairav ji's mantra; and in the same way Hanuman ji, and whichever forms of Bhagavati, whatever kavach there may be — all of these will be used. Some material has to be added in each case, and he will state it as he goes.
Hanuman's Badvanal, Janjira, the Chalisa or the Bajrang Baan may each carry the prayoga, made with much thought and care.
The third is Hanuman ji: if the listener has made his prayoga, whether he is going to use Hanuman ji's Badvanal, or Hanuman ji's Janjira, or the Chalisa or the Bajrang Baan. He says to make the prayoga with much thought and care.
Cow-dung uplas are used particularly for a Hanuman prayoga, alongside the apamarg.
When they go to make Hanuman ji's prayoga, he says, at that time make particular use of cow-dung uplas. The apamarg wood will be there in any case; along with it, use of the cow-dung upla must certainly be made as well.
Red sandalwood shavings, where the budget allows, are mixed into the charged Hanuman dhuni material.
If there is a little financial budget, he says, then red sandalwood powder — which is the most easily available, obtainable as a sort of shaving. Mix a little of that red sandalwood powder into the dhuni material you had charged, if you are doing Hanuman ji's, and use it. Camphor will be there in any case; then, he says, see the effect.
Which shaktis need no kshetrapal nikari at all?
He says that certain shaktis are also used — for instance Panchmukhi Hanuman ji or Markateshwar Hanuman ji — and in their prayoga vidhi, even if kshetrapal nikari is not done, there is no need of it. Because whenever anything of Markateshwar tantra or connected with them is employed, whatever pret and paishachik badha there is will either be removed at once by their effect, or else it will have to be suppressed.
How much strength is ascribed to Hanuman ji against a jinn?
Answering Jai Singh ji on jinns, he says that if you trust and rely on your ishta-aradhya, then what cannot happen. He cites a Maharaj ji, now Brahmalin, whose video he says he will put up: the strength of a hundred elephants is in one digpal; the strength of a hundred digpalas is in Bhagwan Indra's Airavat; the strength of a thousand Airavats is in Bhagwan Indra; and the strength of thousands of Indras is in one hair of Bhagwan Hanuman ji.
Why has trust in Hanuman ji fallen?
Now think, he says, how great Hanuman ji's capacity is — and what can a jinn's standing be; can a jinn stand even equal to the capacity of one hair of Hanuman ji? But the deficiency is just this, that we people have no trust in Hanuman ji. Whatever you make easily available, your belief in it simply falls away: the Hanuman Chalisa and Hanuman ji have become so easily available, temples have been built everywhere, that it feels as if they will not be able to do anything.
Which Hanuman mala mantra should be done?
Asked which Hanuman mala mantra — Lakshman-krit, Shatrughna-krit, Vibhishan-krit, or Badvanal, or Vichitra Virya — he says do whichever you like, if there is such an obstruction, do it.
What care do the Hanuman beej mantras require?
He says that in the beej mantra of Hanuman ji there is the agni beej and many such fierce beejas as Hasphre and so on, so great purity in their pronunciation is necessary. No mistake should occur; observe brahmacharya well. Otherwise there will be a great deal of shool vedana in the body — that is, pain, the feeling that some thorn is being pricked in, as pricks in the knees during a viral fever.
How should the Hanuman mala mantra be performed?
He says that if you are doing the mala mantra of Hanuman ji, do it with full niyam, nishtha, samarpan and purity. Even if you do it only once, let the pronunciation be clear, with the feeling of samarpan, and do it remembering Bhagwan Shri Ram and Maa Janaki — then you will get a very good effect.
Why does relief from a puja stop after a while?
A listener says his health was poor, that he began Hanuman ji's puja in 2020 and became much better, and that for seven or eight months now his mind will not settle. He says this has two meanings: when at the outset you do something you get relief, and if the enemy is active in abhichar he will look for the counter too — how is this man getting well. And your energy is only up to a limited quantity; we say again and again that a samarpan bhav like Ramakrishna Paramhansa's cannot arise within us so that protection of that kind is obtained, and one must not exaggerate oneself.
What should be done when a paath stops bearing fruit?
He says that when it feels that our paath is no longer bearing fruit in that way, then at once do the abhishek vidhi related to Shiva ji; and if you are doing Hanuman ji's, then do japa of Bhagwan Shri Sitaram ji to the best of your capacity, or the paath of a kavach related to them. Or, if you are doing Hanuman ji's, do the paath related to his mother Bhagavati Anjana, so that this bandhan dosha is cut at once and the effect begins again.
Can pictures placed in a temple five years ago be brought back home?
Asked whether pictures put from the home mandir into a temple five years ago can be kept back in the house, he says no — what you took out of the house and placed in a temple, do not bring it back.
Sparsh shakti: a blessing touch that brings people under a sadhak's control
The speaker says some sadhaks, including Brahmins of good lineage, keep shaktis accomplished such that a mere touch under the name of blessing sends the shakti over you, whatever siddhi you yourself hold. He compares this to Ahiravan and Mahiravan, whose Devi's boon placed Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesh and every shakti of the three worlds under their word — all except one vanar, Hanuman, who therefore ended them. Such single-purpose shaktis bind every kind of shakti and do only that one job: from the touch alone you either come under the sadhak's vash or you yourself take out money and give it to him. From his own life he recalls a very good Bagla sadhak whose touch made everyone who bowed to him give ₹500 or whatever they had, though he gave nothing in return. Sadhaks use exactly this kind of shakti on people who come asking "give me such-and-such shakti", and that is how they are cheated.
How does the utara for a suffering child or animal work in practice, after an eclipse?
He gives an example: suppose Hanuman ji is chiefly worshipped in your house. The grahan is over and within the next twenty-four hours the small heifer in your house falls very badly ill. Then whatever kind of utara is done in your region, you will do that utara in the name of Hanuman ji, and take it out at once. She will get relief from that itself. Because whenever an enemy does abhichar tantra, the effect falls first on the gauvansh.
What can a person do who does not know how to perform a havan at all?
The speaker says he has shown the vidhi of taking out a khappar in the Kalika Yogini sadhana, and how a satvik khappar is given. That can be done, and it needs no mantra at all. You may give that khappar in the name of Bhagavati Kali, in the name of Hanuman ji, in the name of Bhairav ji — in the name of any one deity of protective disposition who is renowned for these matters — or in the name of whatever shakti is worshipped in your house. There is no dosha of any kind in it.
What is the rule about jayfal in the khappar?
One thing only is to be kept in mind, he says: if it is a devi, then certainly give jayfal. If it is not a devi — as when you are doing it for Bhairav ji — then even among Bhairav ji there are Bal Bhairav, Batuk Bhairav, Kaal Bhairav, and in some places jayfal is not given. So do not put only the jayfal. In the Kalika Yogini there is jayfal; with Hanuman ji there will be no jayfal.
What is Hanuman ji's asana in a satvik householder prayoga?
In exactly the same way, when Hanuman ji is invoked, especially in tantrokta kriyas, the invocation of his asana happens before his own. In a satvik grihastha prayoga, where we invoke Hanuman ji for ordinary paushtik and shanti karma, there we invoke Vayu in the form of the asana. Pavan is invoked, and that itself becomes his asana — vayu.
What is Hanuman ji's asana in the difficult tantra procedures?
But when the difficult procedures of tantra are in question — when abhichar has to be destroyed, when there are negative things of that sort in the house — then there the pret shakti or pishach shakti present at that place is itself invoked in the form of the asana.
Is it true that Hanuman ji withdraws before a Muslim tantra?
People are afraid, the speaker says, that if a Muslim tantra occurs then Hanuman ji will move aside. He answers that Hanuman ji sits upon things even greater than those, and asks whether any of this could stand before his capability. It is a lack of information, he says, that makes people frightened in this way.
How does Hanuman ji take his seat over such a being?
Whatever pret, pishach or masan is present there, the speaker says, Hanuman ji places his left foot first of all upon that very one. You will find such photographs on the internet too, made symbolically that way, that it is upon them that he first places his foot; and then the other foot, and then he seats himself upon a third — and if there is only one, he sits upon that one itself.
Mental weakness is precisely what the other side exploits
You should not think that a tantra prayoga has occurred in your house and then feel yourself helpless and lose in your mind — that someone will kill me, that such a thing will happen to me. Everyone takes advantage of that very mental weakness, the speaker says. Instead, invoke Hanuman ji once with a hunkar; invoke Bhairav ji once with a war-cry, with the same bhava with which you shout.
Invoked with a full hunkar, Hanuman and Bhairav end the tantra in a few jolts
The vidhi given in the Kalika Yogini teaches the method of invocation, the speaker says — how they are to be invoked. Go and try invoking them. With a full hunkar, with a full war-cry, with full force, they come. In jolt after jolt they finish it off and go, however many negative things of tantra there may be. But that bhava does not come.
People fight either way, because the knowledge itself is missing
And if we tell them that no, brother, a Brahm is a bhoot-pret-pishach, so its puja should not be done — then they will fight, the speaker says: you are speaking wrongly, this is a devata, in our region they are worshipped in every house. So, he says, you have a deficiency of knowledge: who is a devata, who is a pishach, who is what — you have no knowledge, your information is half and incomplete, and you do not even want to take the information.
Which chaupai of the Hanuman Chalisa is used as the samput?
There is a chaupai in the Hanuman Chalisa, the speaker says: भूत पिशाच निकट नहीं आवे हनुमान जब नाम सुनावे — महावीर जब नाम सुनावे. Apply the samput of this and recite the Hanuman Chalisa. It will take a little time: in place of forty it will become a hundred and twenty doha-chaupais.
What dress is required for the puja of Hanuman ji?
Do you know how to tie a ponchhta of the dhoti, the speaker asks — have you ever tied one? Buy a dhoti, learn to tie the ponchhta. The puja of Hanuman ji does not happen without tying a ponchhta. You people sit in jeans and tops; Reiki people will sit in jeans and top to do puja. At the least, he says, wear maryadit clothing: keep a dupatta on the head and at least wear a suit. Men too have no time and will sit in shirt and pants, sit in half-pants, and at their most pleased wrap a red gamchha, or sit in their father's old lungi.
How is a chola applied to a brass murti of Hanuman ji?
A chola should always be applied from below upwards, the speaker says. The orange sindoor that is Hanuman ji's should be prepared in pure ghee or in chameli oil upon a paan leaf, and it is most excellent to apply it from below upwards with that same paan leaf.
How should one raise energy for the bhakti of Hanuman ji and end fear?
Asked how to increase one's energy for the bhakti of Hanuman ji and how to end the fear in one's mind, the speaker says: a bhakta of Hanuman ji, and fear? Today he has told everything about the special prayogas concerning Hanuman ji. So fear and dread should simply not be there at all in the puja of Hanuman ji.
Does offering milk to Hanuman and Bholenath please Chandra Dev?
Asked whether Chandra Dev becomes pleased by offering milk to Hanuman and Bholenath, the speaker answers: absolutely, they do become pleased, and they also become strong. It is entirely correct.
Where can one learn to tie the ponchhta?
Asked how the ponchhta is tied, the speaker says to look on YouTube at how a dhoti is worn — in that it has been shown how the ponchhta is tied.
Why do results not come to those who behave badly?
People say Hanuman ji did nobody's work, that we did puja in this way and nothing came of it. The speaker answers sharply that you look at the sisters and daughters of others with crooked eyes and then want your work to be done by Hanuman ji. And when it is not done you will go and join the adharmis, speak crookedly about Hanuman ji, and still think your work should get done — is that possible, he asks.
A grihastha tantrokta Hanuman Panch and Badvanal Stotra is planned, deferred by the season's anushthans
A listener says he has a strong wish that in the Chandra Grahan the Hanuman Panch Stotra and Hanuman Badvanal Stotra be done by the grihastha tantrokta vidhi. He has written it all down today itself, the speaker says; only the experience videos are so many. He notes there was Chhath here, then Diwali, and now the Navchandi anushthan is running, so only after all this is complete will a little time be had — but he will try to put it up.
What is suggested for a brother missing for nine years?
A listener says his younger brother has been missing for nine years. The speaker tells him to message once on Telegram and he will send him the Sampoorna Hanuman Chalisa; do it with that, and if he wills, then certainly.
Can Hanuman ji be taken as one's guru for mala japa?
Asked whether Hanuman ji can be taken as guru for mala japa, the speaker answers: why can he not be — accept him absolutely.
When may the Langulastra legitimately be used, and where does it stand among Hanuman ji's astras?
It should be used, the speaker says, when there is genuinely a tantra badha upon you, when the enemy is in the wrong, and when you properly know the vidhi of the Langulastra. Of all the astras of Hanuman ji, the Langulastra is the fiercest. Of his five chief astras he names Vajrastra, Kapinakhastra and Langulastra, and says there are two more whose full names he cannot recall. Among them the Langulastra is held to be the fiercest.
Hanuman at Patal, Makardhwaj, and the search for Sita ji are the precedents
When Ravana went into Patal taking Ram ji himself, the speaker asks, who was it who beat the two of them and brought them back? Who sent their devi into Patal, and who became Makardhwaj, the king of Patal, afterwards? Take his help, speak to him. When brothers were lost, who searched for Sita ji — Hanuman ji searched, did he not? So tell him that my brothers are lost; he will search them out and bring them.
They argue that Bhagavan gave nothing for all their bhakti, while the masan baba gives
Tell them to do bhakti of Bhagavan and they will say straight out: what is Bhagavan going to give you, he will give you nothing. We did so much bhakti and he gave nothing; what does Hanuman ji give, he gives nothing. But your masan baba is giving — so, brother, we will do his puja.
What is the first pujan on Chaturdashi?
Chaturdashi is the third day; the Pradosh vyapini Chaturdashi falls on 11 November, and the Chaudas pujan is to be done on that day. In the Chaudas pujan the very first pujan of the evening is of Hanuman ji. According to the southern mantra and according to the kalpa bhed, this day is held to be Hanuman Jayanti — the south holds Hanuman ji's jayanti on Kartik Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi rather than on Chaitra Purnima. So everyone should certainly do the pujan of Hanuman ji that day.
How is the Hanuman pujan done?
There is no very special vidhi vidhan for it. On the day of Chaturdashi, at evening or in the morning, bathe and first of all go to a Hanuman temple. Have the chola offered, having made a sankalp, or if there is arrangement to offer it yourself, offer it yourself. Women will not apply the chola themselves — they will have the pandit ji make the sankalp and have it applied.
What is written on the pan leaves for Hanuman ji?
For Hanuman ji it is eleven pan leaves on which we say again and again that Ram is to be written. Mix the orange sindoor into chameli oil, or into desi ghee, and with the finger with which we do tilak — the small one beside the kanishthika, on which people wear an engagement ring — write Ram on every pan leaf: ra with an aakar and a bindu above it.
What lamps and bhog are offered to Hanuman ji?
At least five laddus, five tulsi leaves, and the lamp that is lit of five grains or seven grains. If you cannot do that, light a lamp of atta: make five lamps of atta, one-mouthed only — not five-mouthed, not four-mouthed for Hanuman ji — and take them to the Hanuman temple. You may light them either with mustard oil or with desi ghee.
Which Hanuman anushthans can be repeated that day?
Whatever anushthan for the sake of Hanuman ji you have done up to now — whether of the Hanuman Chalisa, of the Bajrang Baan, of the Hanuman Sathika, or of the Badvanal, or of any other shabar mantras, the Janjira, or his Panjar, all of which have been given — if you have done these, you may if you wish do its japa and purashcharan on that day.
What should someone troubled by enemies and abhichar start?
Those whose problem is connected with enemies and abhichar can, from the day of Chaturdashi — the Chaudas that falls on 11 November, a Saturday — begin and continue at least until 5 December, Bhairav Jayanti, if they are not doing any sadhana so far. If you want to begin an entirely new sadhana, a special one connected with shabar, then the Panjar of Hanuman ji given on the Siddh Shabari Vidya channel is the one; he says he will share the link on this channel and in the group. It is extremely fast-acting for the destruction of abhichar, for protection from the abhichar and conspiracies of enemies, and for the destruction of enemies as well.
Repeat the sadhana already begun; a new one comes only after the basic Guru-Ganpati sadhana
He says again: if you are already doing some sadhana, repeat that very one. A protective sadhana may be taken up if you have not done one — many have been doing Ganpati ji's sadhana, have done the Sankat Nashan, have done the Ekakshari japa of Dattatreya Maharaj. Once their basic, initial sadhana of Guru and Ganpati is complete, then the sadhana of Bhairav ji or of Hanuman ji is to be done — and either may be begun from Dwadashi or from Chaturdashi. In his own view you should do Hanuman ji's Panjar now, which is the fastest; or if you wish, the Badvanal.
What is done at home on the evening of Chaturdashi?
After the temple, at the evening time do the pujan of Hanuman ji at home; if you wish to do havan and the like, keep an upvas and do the havan in the evening, and you may eat after the havan. There is no full necessity of keeping such an upvas — if you have not been keeping one, do not keep it for the first time this year, because an upvas will have to be kept for the Diwali pujan the next day. Before Hanuman ji at home, five lamps of ghee must certainly be given as deep daan, separately for him; and on the day of Chaturdashi fourteen lamps should be lit together and arranged at different places in the house.
What is chola chadhana, and which mantra may anyone use for Surya arghya?
Chola chadhana means the lepan of sindoor that is done upon Hanuman ji — that is chola chadhana, the chola of sindoor. Asked whether arghya may be given to Surya with the mantra beginning Japa Kusum Sanka Samkashyapam Maha, he says absolutely, everyone may give it; it is a pauranik mantra and everyone can pronounce it — women, men, those who wear the yajnopavit and those who do not, anyone at all can pronounce this mantra. He adds that the path of the Navgrah stotra may be done by every person daily; there is no dosha, women, men and children can all do it.
On which day should the Hanuman Chalisa be perfected, and at what time should a five-day laghu anushthan be done?
Do it on the day of Chaturdashi, on the Saturday, he says. Asked at what time each day it would be proper to do a five-day laghu anushthan sadhana, he says there is no difficulty about the time, but evening is much better; for the rest, do it according to your work there, according to your office.
Its vidhi and prayogas are too intricate to perform unlearnt, whereas the simpler Durga yantra and chakra pujan carry no dosha for one who knows them.
Because its whole vidhi-vidhan and all its prayogas are intricate — without having learnt it you will not be able to perform it, and dosha will attach. Apart from that, the yantra of Bhagavati Durga, which is somewhat simpler to do, and her chakra pujan and the like — if you know those, you may do them, and in that there is no dosha upon you.
Ram was victorious through Vashishtha's blessing and the tantra vidyas taught by him — all of it leela, and none of it learnable from the Ramayana alone.
The speaker holds both. Bhagavan Shri Ram was victorious on account of Maharshi Vashishtha's blessing and the tantra vidyas taught by him — although all of this is leela alone, since Hanuman ji, or Bhagavan Shiva, or any such mahashakti could comfortably have slain Ravana. This was all leela, for the sake of human beings. Even so, we should know that this is not a learning we can take from the Ramayana alone.
May one do Hanuman ji's Badvanal?
Asked about it, the speaker answers simply that yes, you should absolutely do Hanuman ji's Badvanal.
The four Mahaviras who accompany every form of Bhagavati
The speaker says that whichever form of Bhagavati one worships, four Mahashaktis stand with every form of Jagdamba as viras: first Bhagavan Ganpati, second Bhairav, third Hanuman and fourth Bhagavan Narasimha. One should certainly take the shelter of one of these four so that worldly work succeeds and one also receives protection.
Who may undertake the Hanumant Badavanal sadhana
The speaker names three basic conditions. One must be able to give up meat and alcohol — if not, do not take up this vidhan. Brahmacharya, mental and physical, is essential as in every Hanuman sadhana. And one must hold back anger, because this is an ugra sadhana in which anger will rise, and getting angry at anyone wastes the energy and punya being earned.
Stage one of Badavanal siddhi: Sitaram japa from Ekadashi to Ekadashi
The speaker says the vidhi begins on the Ekadashi of any month and runs to the Ekadashi of the next paksha. In that period one does 108 malas daily of the Sitaram nama on a genuine Tulsi mala of 108 beads plus a sumeru, to destroy one's paap and taap and to produce in the body the element that can hold the Badavanal vidya. It is done with Brahmacharya, sleeping on the ground if possible, after a morning bath and puja of Shri Ram's darbar, on a Kusha Asana laid with its head east, in yellow clothes, facing east only, with achaman and a Sankalpa naming the purpose and also all paap, shraap and kundali doshas; each day's japa is surrendered with water into Ram's right hand or Janaki's left. After the home puja one goes to a Shiva temple, lights five ghee lamps, does abhisheka with milk, curd and honey and then water, offers bilva and flowers and recites the Rudrashtakam eleven times; back home, one feeds the creatures around the house before eating. Kept up to the Ekadashi, this completes the first stage.
Where, when and in what dress the Badavanal siddhi anushthan is begun
The speaker says the second stage starts from a Tuesday, a parva kaal, or best of all a Purnima falling on a Tuesday. It is done in a temple, not at home to begin with, unless one already practises sadhana at home. For men a south-facing Hanuman temple is best; women should not do a very large anushthan at a south-facing temple and should use an ordinary one. A Hanuman image under a banyan or Peepal tree is excellent. One wears red, a kusha or red asana, and may face east or north. On the first day one goes in a red dhoti and kurta, not shirt and trousers; the main rule is unstitched cloth, a dhoti for men and at least a saree for women.
Caution: mockery of the sadhak's dhoti is a vighna to be ignored
The speaker says that if anyone mocks or insults a sadhak for going to the anushthan in a dhoti or saree, even a Brahmin, the sadhak should close his ears. Such mockery is a vighna-badha trying to stop him from completing the sadhana; if it succeeds he will neither finish the sadhana nor gain any benefit, so it is to be given no attention.
First-day offerings to Hanuman in the Badavanal anushthan
The speaker says on the first day one has a chola offered to Hanuman through the pandit with sankalp; then writes Ram nama with ashtagandha and the ring finger on 11 or 21 paan leaves — either रा with the anusvara, whose dot stands for Mata Janaki, or श्री राम, where Shri stands for Janaki, so that either way it becomes Sitaram — strings them into a garland and puts it on Hanuman, with a red-flower garland and the Ram-nama cloth; has a moonj janeu offered by the pandit, or oneself while reciting the Gayatri mentally if one wears a janeu; and offers rot-churma with laddu and tulsi leaf — the same quantity every day.
Daily sitting of the Badavanal anushthan: sankalp, Sitaram malas, 108 paths counted on urad, samarpan
The speaker says that after the bhog one sits, does achaman, wears the pavitri, purifies the body, does asana shuddhi and shikha bandhan, recites a mangalik path and takes Sankalpa for at least 21 days (women may do 7 or 11), daily or once for all. One remembers the guru, Ganpati, Bhairav, the Kuldevi and sthan devata, does 11 malas of Sitaram on the same tulsi mala, then Hanuman's Dhyan and the Viniyoga of Badavanal, done only once. Holding 108 whole black urad grains, one recites the badvanal-stotra 108 times (11, 21, 27 or 54 are allowed), dropping a grain into a paan- or sal-leaf dona after each path, the mala resting in a Gomukhi meanwhile; then 11 more Sitaram malas. The urad is placed half on each of Hanuman's feet, the japa surrendered with water, then aarti, kshama prarthana and 11 pradakshinas (or 27 or 108 around a peepal or banyan) with Sitaram japa. The whole vidhi is repeated daily to the 21st day, without re-offering the Ram-nama cloth and janeu.
Closing the Badavanal anushthan: the final-day havan, laddu distribution and brahmachari bhojan
The speaker says that when the 21-day path is complete, on the last day a Havan of Hanuman is done in the temple itself, oneself or, better for a woman, by a pandit. The material is ghee and Guggul: ahutis first with Hanuman's sahasranama, then 108 each with the Gayatri of Ram, of Sita and of Hanuman, then Purnahuti. The daily rot-churma bhog is eaten and shared at home; on the last day one may arrange a sawa-mani of 40 kilos of Laddu or simply a sawa kilo, feed it to small children, provide for nearby monkeys and do gau seva. If five Brahmins who truly keep brahmacharya can be found, feed them food cooked by one's own hand; otherwise give dan-Dakshina to a pandit and do gau seva. Done so, he says, this is one vidhi by which the Badavanal vidya is attained.
Forty-one days of home practice before any Badavanal prayog
The speaker says the anushthan may be done for 21 days, or extended to 41 or 108 days. Once it is complete, one should first do at home, every day for 41 days, 11 malas of Sitaram japa, 11 paths of the Badavanal, and again 11 malas — with the sankalp of grace, siddhi and Hanuman's special favour — and only after that take sankalp for a prayog. In the temple the daily order is 11 malas of Sitaram, 108 paths of the Badavanal, then 11 malas of Sitaram.
Where hostel life makes full procedure impossible, the Hanuman Chalisa may be recited through the eclipse
Yes — absolutely recite the Hanuman Chalisa.
For chronic fear, recite a deity's Mahatmya in their presence — for Hanuman, the "Atulit Baldhamam" verse, with an Ugra disposition
Recite Hanuman in the household with an intense disposition. The principle is to recite, before the deity, the account in which they displayed their power — for Hanuman, the "Atulit Baldhamam" verse, properly pronounced.
Should the Vichitra Veer Hanuman Mala mantra be preferred over the Hanuman Chalisa?
You may do the Mala Mantra, but relate it back to the Chalisa and you will find Tulsidas incorporated much of it there. The Mala mantra is Ugra and can trouble anyone without the right to it — the Hanuman Chalisa is complete in itself.
How is Samputa done with the Hanuman Chalisa?
Use "Naase rog hare sab peera, japat nirantar Hanumat beera" as Samput, or "Bhoot pishaach nikat nahin aave, Mahaveer jab naam sunaave". One Samputa recitation is said to yield the fruit of a hundred recitations, and fear is destroyed.
Where do Ganesh and Shiva go when Durga is the principal deity?
When Bhagavati Durga is installed, Hanuman ji stays on the right and Bal Bhairav ji on the left. Ganpati ji then goes to Hanuman ji's right — so he is to Durga ji's right and to Hanuman ji's right both. And Shiva ji goes to Bhairav ji's left, beside him. A Shivling too is placed the same way.
Where should prasad be distributed if it is offered for the Devi?
You may distribute at a Hanuman temple — but if it is to be done for Bhagavati, do it at a Bhagavati temple; that will be much better. If Hanuman ji is himself the Kula deity, then you may do it there.
Where does Ganesh stand relative to Durga — right or left?
Bhagavati Durga exists in four-armed, two-armed, eight-armed, ten-armed, sixteen-armed, eighteen-armed and thousand-armed forms, and the placement changes with the form. In a Gauri-Ganpati installation Bhagavati stands to Ganpati's right; with the eight-armed Durga, Ganpati goes to her right; with the ten-armed, he moves to the left.
What sadhana gives physical strength?
Perform the Vir-bhava sadhana connected with Bhagavan Hanuman ji while observing Brahmacharya; perform the Panchmukhi Hanuman sadhana; perform the Markateshwar Bhairav sadhana. Done after taking Deeksha it is excellent, as is a Samput recitation of the Hanuman Chalisa with the complete sadhana.
Deities worshipped alongside Bhagavati in the Navratri vrat: Ganpati, Bhairav, Hanuman, Narsingh, and Datt as mahaguru
The speaker says that along with Bhagavati one must worship Ganesha, Bhairava, Hanuman and Bhagwan Narasimha — all four. Even just offering Akshat and flowers in the four names makes the puja accepted, so one should not worry; if one knows the full vidhan, good, otherwise only this much. The way is: sit on the asana, do achaman, meditate on Ganpati and one's guru — and if one has no guru, on Bhagwan Dattatreya, the mahaguru of all, in whom Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh are one — offer akshat and flowers in his name, then in Ganpati's, then in Batuk Bhairava's, and then begin the Durga Saptashati path.
Can deities other than Bhairav ji hold the post of Bhairav?
Yes. The speaker says Bhairav's swarup is not such that Bhairav means only the Bhairav ji we know. The meaning of Bhairav is the one who does bharan-poshan, who protects. At very many places Hanuman ji stand as Bhairav ji, and at very many places Shiva ji himself stands in the form of Bhairav — besides which Bhairav ji's own root swarups, the different kinds of Bhairav, of course exist.
If only Hanuman ji is worshipped at home, who is the kul Bhairav?
The speaker says that if you have always done Bhagavati's seva-puja and Hanuman ji are worshipped alongside, with no other deva worshipped, then worship Batuk Bhairav in a subtle, symbolic manner, because everyone is present in the chowki — but the chief Bhairav will be the Hanuman ji already worshipped: they have become your kul Bhairav.
If Hanuman ji is the kul devata but the kul devi is unknown, what should be done?
The speaker says that if Hanuman ji are worshipped in your house they have become the kul devata; and if you know the kuldevi's name that is well, but if you know only that Hanuman ji are worshipped in the kula, then at such a time give Bhagavati a place in the seva-puja alongside Hanuman ji.
Which Bhagavati should be worshipped alongside Hanuman ji if none is known?
The speaker says that if Hanuman ji are worshipped in the house, then alongside them worship the Bhagavati of whichever Shakti Peeth is near your house, if you do not know who the kuldevi is.
Does scripture support Ganapati standing in Bhairav's place?
The speaker says that whenever you read a description of the devi's loka in any grantha or Purana, this thing is seen there too: Bhagavati has innumerable swarups and innumerable lokas, and in whichever loka's description you read, very often you see Ganapati seated at the gate in place of Bhairav. This, he says, confirms what he said earlier — that it is not necessary that Bhairav ji alone be in Bhairav's form; it may be Hanuman ji, it may be Ganapati.
How should the deities of the panchayatan be worshipped day to day?
The speaker says everyone should keep the whole panchayatan, worshipping one deity chiefly and the others symbolically, and performing their special pujan on their own chief day when it comes. A vigreh of Hanuman ji, one-faced or five-faced, may also be kept at home.
May women touch a vigreh of Hanuman ji?
Asked because the listener had seen a woman applying oil to Hanuman ji's feet in a temple, the speaker says that apart from dakshinmukhi Hanuman ji, touch is also forbidden for Panchmukhi Hanuman ji; and where in a temple Hanuman ji's face looks towards the southern direction, touch is forbidden there. In the installation of Panchmukhi Hanuman ji, the acharyas who know the method make his asana, even if only symbolically, a pretasana — and for this reason a woman's touch is forbidden.
Which forms of Hanuman ji may a woman touch?
The speaker says that as for the rest — the other swarup of Hanuman ji — women may touch them.
Who is the Bhairav of Mata Vimala of Puri?
The speaker says the Bhairav of Mata Vimala — the Bhairav of that kshetra — are Bandi Hanuman ji, the Hanuman ji known there as the beedi-wale Hanuman ji; the chief pujan there in the form of Bhairav is theirs. Whether it be Vimala Mata or Bhagavan Jagannath, the whole responsibility of that place rests upon Hanuman ji, so the puja in the form of Bhairav there will chiefly be his.
How many kinds of dhooni are there for the home?
Asked how a dhooni is done for Hanuman Baba and how many kinds there are, the speaker says that for doing it at home a dhooni is chiefly of two kinds: the first for shanti and paushtik purposes, and the second for cutting where a tantra vichar has been set running in the house.
Which deities must compulsorily be worshipped in a home?
Asked whether Hanuman ji's pujan too is compulsory alongside the panch devas and the kuldevi, the speaker says absolutely — without Hanuman ji's dhwaja in the house, what is going to happen. Ganapati ji's puja is entirely compulsory; you will do Lakshmi-Ganesh's puja; you will certainly do the puja of some one swarup of Narayan; you will certainly do Shiva ji's puja, Bhagavati's puja, Hanuman ji's puja; there must certainly be a tulsi plant and Hanuman ji's dhwaja.
Should an achal pran-pratishthit Bajrangbali be installed in a house for a vastu problem?
Asked about a house whose courtyard door faces south, where someone installed a pran-pratishthit achal Bajrangbali for the sake of vastu shastra, and whether this makes a difference to the puja of the main mandir, the speaker asks who did such a big thing. He says that even if there was some difficulty at home according to the rules of vastu for any reason, an achal pratishtha should never have been done in a house for its purification.
The large channels are asked to give common sadhanas and use these materials for lok kalyan.
The speaker says a common sadhana should always be given on a channel. In the experiences he has put out — of Hanuman ji's havan, of the jhanjhira and all the rest — he has spoken openly, saying that he knows that people of other channels, the big channel people, listen to him: please use these things for lok kalyan. If such people come to you with a difficulty of this kind, have them use these materials and there will be benefit.
How can Rahu and Ketu be pacified at home without a specialist?
Four things: keep the house and especially the bathroom scrupulously clean on Saturdays and Wednesdays and keep the soles of your feet clean; worship Shiva's family and the Sankatnashan Ganapati with twelve Durva; fly Hanuman's red flag with a lamp morning and evening; and feed the street dogs before you eat.
How long does the brihad trikon take, and where does it run?
Rising above Kali Khoh, having darshan of Bhagavan Shri Krishna at Girva talab and of Sakshi Gopal ji, you go on to Mukteshwar Mahadev; past Rin Mukteshwar Mahadev runs the way up the Vindhya mountain to the Bajrang tantra sthan where Shri Hanuman ji has been seated in direct form from ancient times. Those practised at it take at least twelve hours, new people sixteen, and some as much as twenty-four — begun at dawn today, the brihad trikon is completed at dawn tomorrow.
How should Hanuman ji's seva be done so that no fault attaches?
He says a video on Hanuman ji's seva is being provided. The one thing everybody fears is fault; everyone goes to brahmacharya — that a man or a woman should have no fault in the way they look at the opposite sex. Only by keeping self-restraint can any sadhana be done. It is not at all the case, he says, that if Hanuman ji is to be worshipped then a full brahmacharya vrat must be kept, while when Bhagavati Kamakhya is worshipped there is a complete open licence because it is the Kamakhya swaroop being worshipped and you may look at anyone in whatever way you like. That is a very great misconception. The rule is the same in all — brahmacharya has to be observed.
Samput Hanuman Chalisa with "sankat kate mite sab peera" for a vicious maran prayog
The speaker says that if the prayog is very vicious and the trouble severe, the Hanuman Chalisa should be recited with the Samput "संकट कटे मिटे सब पीरा जो सुमरे हनुमत बलबीरा", applied in the correct way, which is fully published in a live video on the channel — not the wrong way of reading the line once before the first chaupai and once at the end. Done correctly, relief begins from the very first paath.
Weekly Kali or Hanuman temple puja, lemon garland and lemon jyot, and evening lamps in Bhairav's name after a maran prayog
Alongside all the vidhans, the speaker says, give puja at a Kali ji or Hanuman ji temple on Tuesdays and Saturdays, garland Bhagavati with lemons, and light a lemon jyot with a sankalp made through the patient's own touch. Every evening light a lamp on either side of the house, or a single small chaumukh lamp with four wicks in Bhairava ji's name. Kept up for a long time, this pacifies and destroys the maran's effect, and whatever prayog someone does, the calamity they intend cannot arrive — though the rest, he says, lies with Bhagavati's will and one's own Prarabdha and punya.
The Ravana story: Hanuman's one-letter change in the Argala mantra
The speaker tells the second account, from a Ramayana: Ravana was having a Chandika pujan of Bhagavati Tara performed with the Tara mantra embedded in the path. Hanuman, realising Ravana would become invincible on all sides if it were completed, took the form of a young Brahmin boy, a batuk, and pleaded with the aged Brahmins not to commit this wrong — if the rakshasa was to be ended, they should make a mistake. In the second mantra of the Argala, "jaya devi bhutartiharini", the syllable "ha" was changed to "ka", making it "bhutartikarini"; because the uccharan went wrong, Bhagavati grew angry and Ravana was destroyed. That, he says, is reckoned one of the causes.
What care should be kept in performing daily bhog seva at a temple?
A listener says Shiva and Hanuman are seated in a temple near her house and she has received the seva of the daily bhog, and asks what care to keep while making and offering it. It is a great good fortune, he says, that the work of the daily bhog in a temple of Hanuman has been received; the burden of temple seva comes only from the punya of some birth. Keep full attention to sucheeta, and go and come with purity, observing brahmacharya well. And since her name is Monica, and if she is a woman, she should not go at the time of masik dharm — for that time she should have some other arrangement made.
Does worshipping other deities break a Vaishnav sharanagati?
Asked whether, after taking Vaishnav sharanagati, worshipping other deities such as Hanuman or Shiva breaks the sharanagati, he says: no, it will not be broken at all. Understand sharanagati with this bhav: when a wife marries and becomes the vamangi of someone by the paani grahan sanskar, then somewhere both of them have in a manner taken sharanagati with each other — the wife of the husband, and the husband of his wife.
A husband is all the more pleased when his wife serves his parents as her own, and the ishta deity is pleased in the same way.
If she serves her father-in-law as her own father, then the husband will be all the more pleased — she is taking our father as her own father, taking our mother as her own mother; he will become surrendered. In the same way, when you are doing the seva of Narayan and have taken his sharanagati, and from bhav, for any cause, even at a parva kaal or at any time at all, you do the seva of Hanuman or the seva of Shiva, then God will surely be pleased.
Hanuman is directly the avatar of Rudra, and there is no bheda at all among Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.
Because where are these separate, he asks. Hanuman is directly the avatar of Rudra, and there is no bheda at all among Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, of which countless proofs have been given. So there is no difficulty whatever. Only this bhav should not come into your mind, that our sharanagati is being broken.
What do Shiva and Vishnu say about each other's enemies?
Who is Shiva himself in the Rudra form, he asks; who is he according to Vishnu? There should be no bheda between Vishnu and Shiva. Shiva says: one who is an enemy of Vishnu is never acceptable to me. Vishnu says: one who does droha to Shiva is never acceptable to me. Both of them have said this. By Vishnu's kripa Shiva bhakti is obtained; by Shiva's kripa Vishnu bhakti is being obtained. And Hanuman is everywhere — in Bhagavati's mandala too, in Narayan's mandala too, and he is directly the avatar of Shiva.
When does the Hanuman sadhana begin, and which Kavach should be used?
From the Purnima tithi falling in Chaitra — Hanuman Jayanti — and running Purnima to Purnima, at least a month. Use either the Ekmukhi or the Panchmukhi Hanuman Kavach; where the house has a Pret or Pishach related fault, use the Panchmukhi.
Can Hanuman ji be given abhishek in Shravan?
Asked whether, since Hanuman ji is a Rudra avatar, his abhishek may be done in the month of Shravan, the speaker says no doubt should be kept about it at all: you may absolutely do Hanuman ji's abhishek, puja, shringar and everything, and the offering of chola and the rest. But keep one thing in mind — along with it, the abhishek and pujan of Shiva ji must certainly happen. Never bypass Shiva ji in the month of Shravan; do not replace him with anyone.
Why Hanuman can free pitr from every kind of bandhan
The speaker's second upaya for bound Pitr is the prayoga of Hanuman ji, who he says is so all-powerful even today that everyone should know he can free from the Bandhan of every kind of shakti; the tantra granths describe him freeing all from bandhan. If he could free Bhagavan Shri Ram — even if that is held to be by Ram's kripa — what can he not do for ordinary people like us. The Hanuman Chalisa or the bajrang-baan can be used, and even without the Bajrang Baan the Chalisa alone can free the pitr.
Hanuman Chalisa havan of guggul and ghee begun on Amavasya to free bound pitr
The speaker's Hanuman Chalisa Havan for bound Pitr begins on Amavasya: first offer a Langot and chola at a Hanuman temple, then at home, fasting till noon (or on Phalahar), from about 11 o'clock light an agiyari of well-lit cow-dung Upla, take the sankalp with akshat and flower after remembering guru and Ganpati, and give one Ahuti of Guggul mixed with ghee for each chaupai of the Chalisa. A man offers both ghee and guggul; a woman offers guggul only, never ghee, and keeps a Ghunghat. Close with one ahuti each for Ram, Sita, the four brothers, Shiva and Parvati, show the smoke through the whole house and set the fire near the main door. Best done daily from Amavasya to Amavasya; otherwise every Amavasya, or on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
The lives of the Kashi siddhas, and of Tulsi Baba of Tulsi ghat who had repeated darshan of Hanuman ji, show devatas becoming direct.
If we want that, the speaker says, we should look somewhere at the lives of mahapurushas in whose lives devatas became direct. Look at the lives of the siddhas of the Kashi region; look at the life of Tulsi Baba of Tulsi ghat. Hanuman ji gave Tulsidas ji darshan many times, directly, and stayed with him — so did suffering not remain in his life after Hanuman ji became direct? Did he become a billionaire, a king? Did he want that, or did he do that?
What determined the help Hanuman ji gave Tulsidas?
What the purpose of his life was — in that Hanuman ji gave him support, the speaker says. It was a divine purpose; the bhav were divine; he wished to please Bhagavan Shri Ramchandra ji Maharaj, and in accordance with that Bhagavan Hanuman ji supported him. Whatever bhav remains in your life, in that same manner the dev shaktis will cooperate with you there.
At a new sadhana sthali near a small forest a stone stood by the Hanuman flag, and a devi was seen in dream uprooting it.
He relates an experience of some fifteen or sixteen years ago: they went for a time to a new place where sadhana had to be done, near a small forest. The people who lived there before had left; the small house, the sadhana sthali, was cleaned. A place had been made there for Hanuman ji, for a flag — there was a flag, Hanuman ji was there, and near the flag a small stone was placed, which was ordinarily taken to be worshipped in the name of Hanuman ji. A day or two passed, and this same vidhan he is describing was performed there; all their vigrahas were established, a mandala was made, and only the muhurta was awaited — he still remembers it was the day of Akshaya Tritiya, from which they were to begin sadhana. Two or three days before, at night, came a dream in which a devi, whose form he cannot say much about, was uprooting that stone and throwing it out.
Which sadhanas fructify quickly with Shani in the lagna?
Sadhanas connected with the body and with kayakalp begin to fructify very quickly, he says. For example: someone with much illness and suffering doing Hanuman ji's sadhana, with Shani in the lagna, doing sadhana himself to remove his physical suffering — better still if initiated. Whichever deity's mantra, stotra or kavach one has chosen, such as the Maheshwar Kavach, in which the prayoga for the destruction of diseases is described, or the Mahamrityunjay Kavach — with Shani in the lagna the fruit for release from physical suffering comes very fast.
Which mala thread may be used for which deity?
If the Jagadamba Charan Ragi mala is in a yellow thread, then japa of Bhagavan Shiva, Hanuman ji and Ganapati ji can be done with it, he says. If it is in red, then japa of any form of the Devi can be done. If it is to be done only for Bhagavati Pitambara, then it should be the yellow one.
When twenty recitations bring no response, the reason is to be looked for within oneself
The speaker says he does not know how to answer such a comment at all. Look within yourself; that is why the response is not coming.
Why deity mantras hurt an ancestor seated in the puja room
The speaker says the Pitr fall in the category of Upadeva; they are not of one kind, many types are described, and some among them, whose gati has not happened, are connected with the Preta yoni. If such ancestors are seated in the place of worship, he says, the very mantras with which the gods are worshipped begin to cause them pain. His example is Hanuman Chalisa and bajrang-baan: the jurisdiction there is wrong to begin with, so the energy produced by that recitation hurts the bodies of the ancestors.
What remedies help with social anxiety, lack of confidence, and fear of public speaking?
Practicing one's Ishta Devata's Kavach up to 11,000 times, 41 days of daily Hanuman worship, or a Ram Beej Mantra written on Tulsi leaves and offered with Hanuman Chalisa for even 15 days, causes social anxiety to vanish.
What worship helps with selling property at a good price or succeeding in real estate?
Special worship of Goddess Varahi, Goddess Prithvi, Lord Hanuman, Lord Mangal, and Lord Varaha helps with real estate — the simplest method is worshiping Hanuman and reciting Hanuman Sahasranama in the evening or night.
Bajrang Baan and Hanuman Chalisa are proven through the Roti ritual, and coconut shells and husks serve as Havan fuel
bajrang-baan and Hanuman Chalisa are proven methods for realization through a specific bread (Roti) ritual, and coconut shells and husks can be used as fuel during Havans or fumigation.
What are the rules for offering nutmeg and coconut in a Havan, and when is Purnahuti required?
A nutmeg offered to Hanuman in Havan should be small — one or two pieces; coconut sacrifice can be performed in any Havan, but daily household Havans don't require a full Purnahuti or coconut every day — a betel nut suffices.
Misconception: Vaishnavas should not worship Bhairav or Hanuman
Asked whether one may worship both, the speaker says worship both without any doubt. Some "great souls" say there is no need to worship Bhairava; some Vaishnavas, even well-known ISKCON saints, forbid worship of Hanuman, let alone Bhairav — keep away from such people. If Krishna, who is Parameshwar himself, needed no such shaktis, why did he send Bhima to do tapa for Kaal Bhairav's pleasure and bring him to Hastinapur (the Kilkari Bhairav of Delhi); why did he direct the Pandavas to worship Hanuman, Shiva, Baglamukhi, and — in the Devi Bhagavat — Vindhyavasini? Philosophy has its place, he says; the sadhana side has its own, and those who mix the two are the ones who go wrong.
Ghee lamps and Yogini offerings after the garland, counted by deity
After the garland is put on, the speaker says at least 13 ghee lamps are lit there, with one red flower and some sweet on a betel leaf in front of each, and the deity's Yoginis are prayed to for removal of the dosh — 13 yoginis for Kali. The number of offering places changes with the deity: 9 for Durga, 12 for Shiva, 4 for Ganesha, 11 for Hanuman, 8 for Baglamukhi, 9 for the Matangi form, 8 for Bhairava. If one does not want to go by the count, at least 11 offerings and 11 lamps are lit in the temple that day.
Tithi for the first forgiveness puja, by deity, and the month of daily japa that follows
The speaker says the first forgiveness puja at the temple is done on the deity's own Tithi: Purnima for Hanuman, Pradosh, Trayodashi or Panchami for Shiva, Shukla Paksha Ashtami for Baglamukhi, Ashtami or Navami for Durga, and likewise for other deities. From that day until the same tithi comes again next month — Amavasya to amavasya for Kali — one lights a lamp at home every day and recites the same kshama mantra 108 times.
Worshipping the afflicted deity's own ishta to restore stopped experiences
The speaker says that if the offence was against a deity like Hanuman or Bhairava and the experiences from a paath have stopped, one prays to that deity's own Ishta Devata — the one he reveres and whose word he heeds. For Hanuman that means praising Shri Ram and asking him to free one from the dosh (Shri Ram Stuti, Ram Raksha Stotra, his 108 names) and serving Sitaram ji and Bhagwati Anjana; for Ganesha, also worshipping Bhagwati Parvati; for Bhairav ji, certainly worshipping Bhagwati Kali with the "Kshama-Rupena Samsthita" verse, through whom the offence is forgiven and the experiences begin again. He calls this the general vidhan by which special Kripa returns — done secretly, never shown.
Sadashiva, Bhairav and Hanuman must be worshipped alongside the Navratri navgrah jap
The speaker says that in all this pujan the worship of Bhagwan Sadashiva and of Bhairava and Hanuman ji is compulsory. It may be as little as lighting one Deepak in their names, or a path of the Hanuman Chalisa, the Shiv Panchakshar Stotra, the Rudrashtakam or the names of Bhairav ji, but it must be done. If it cannot be done in the morning, do it in the evening; these deities are not to be left out.
Daily temple nirmalya hung above the chaukhat against abhichaar
Along with the Shiva water, the speaker says, bring every day the nirmalya from that same temple or from any very old temple — especially of Bhairav ji, Hanuman ji, Bhagavati Kali, Durga ji, or a temple connected with the Yoginis. It should be the morning's first nirmalya: what is left after the night's shringar and found there in the morning. Hang it on the upper side of the main-door chaukhat every day; next morning bring fresh nirmalya, immerse the old one and put up the new. Continue this for at least 108 days, six months, a year — more than half the tantra running over the house, he says, stops by this alone.
At what time should the utara be done, and with which stotras?
It is most excellent, the speaker says, if it is done at the time of sandhya, when both belas are equal. It can be done with Bhagavan Narasimha's mantra, with the Narasimha mala mantra and the like; with Batuk Bhairav ji's stotra and satnamavali, or with his sabar mantra if you have done the shraddha; or with Hanuman ji's Janjira, or his other mantras, or the Bajrang Baan, which he says everyone keeps as siddha and anyone can do.
Why do people trust spirits more than deities?
The speaker reports the line he has heard repeatedly — that this is Muslim Tantra so Hanuman will not work, Kali Mai will, and a black cockerel must be offered, and not at a temple but at the practitioner's own place, where a Dakini is what is actually seated.
Caution: the speaker's special Hanuman sadhana is only for those whose kul shakti is bound
Answering a question from a group post, the speaker says the special Hanuman sadhana he had mentioned is for those people to whom this has happened — who know that their kul shakti is bound. It is for them alone; those whose shaktis are not bound will get bound if they do it. He had meant it for those whose kul pitrs and shaktis are bound, who are certain that abhichar has been done and that an abhichar shakti is receiving their puja-path.
Open choices in the home tantra kaat vidhan: bhog, path, women, and aarti days
The speaker says the question was how to do it at home, and he is deliberately not asking you to go to the temple, since one cannot do much for long in a temple. Within the home vidhan several things are open: offer any sweet Bhog you like and feed it to everyone; choose the path according to the deity of the peeth — for Hanuman ji, the Bajrang Baan; women may do it without fear, and the four or five days they miss are covered by someone else, after which they resume. Everyone gives 15 to 30 minutes morning and evening and does Aarti together with kapur and laung; if daily aarti is not possible, fix one day — Tuesday for Hanuman ji, Friday or Monday for Durga ji, Monday for Shiv ji, and Saturday evening for Kali ji.
Why would experiences reduce after the guru who gave a Hanuman trivacha has died?
A listener says a trivacha of Hanuman ji was taken by guru kripa, but since the guru ji passed away the experience is reducing, though there is no lessening in his surrender or in his bhav of puja. The speaker says this is a thing to think about, and that ordinarily this should not happen — because Hanuman ji is Hanuman ji, and nobody has so much capacity that they should give his trivacha and afterwards there be a reduction in the experiences of it. The second thing is that if a dosha or a mistake of some kind has been committed by you, then that can be a separate matter.
Which sadhanas suit a person with a strong Mangal?
The second thing, he says, is that if Mangal is strong, then if you do the sadhana of Bhagavati Baglamukhi, of Hanuman ji, or of such shaktis as are connected with the field of war — the ugra shaktis, particularly, though all the shaktis are such, yet still those whose swarup is of that kind — then you get a swift result.
The Hanuman Chalisa havan is recommended over a costly tantric prayoga because anyone can do it
The condition has already worsened and you cannot do a great deal now, he says; if he tells you a great tantric prayoga, or tells you to go to somebody, money will be spent on everything. The most easily available thing is to try doing havan with the Hanuman Chalisa. A continuous forty days is one mandala puja — that is, for forty days do the puja of Hanuman ji alone; on Tuesday and Saturday go to him and record your presence; offer bhog and the rest to Hanuman ji. Within those forty days, he says, the situation will improve a good deal.
Hanuman would be ashamed if Shri Ram offered him pranam, even in leela
Suppose Hanuman stands in the role of a servant of Bhagavan Shri Ram. Hanuman would never wish that Shri Ram, even in leela, should offer him pranam — he would be ashamed, a little shame would come to him that the Prabhu had bowed to him.
In a hundred-page Sabar mantra book from a large publisher, ninety-five pages carry Islamic mantras
He says that in the Sabar mantra books of the well-known writers and large publishers, if the book runs to a hundred pages you may take it as written that ninety-five of them are filled with Islamic mantras — Hanuman ji's, with Sulaiman and the rest running in them; Bhairav ji's too; and as for Narasimha ji and Kali ji, forget it entirely.
Tara and Bhagavati Shamshan Kali are the root of those mantras in ninety per cent of cases
He says that there, generation upon generation, the dead of ten and twenty and no one knows when remain living — kept so by the same people through mantra bala; and the root of that mantra will be Tara and Bhagavati Shamshan Kali in a maximum of ninety per cent of cases. They can never do it with Hanuman ji, he says; they will do it only with Ma, and it is these tantratmak forms of Ma that they use with authority in mleccha tantra.
Hanuman's devotees fill the temples on a Tuesday, but look at the bhakti taking place there
On Tuesday the devotees of Hanuman ji will certainly go, he says — but do look at the condition of the temples. Hanuman ji's devotees will certainly go, but what kinds of bhakti take place there you will understand very well.
Ram and Sita regard Hanuman as their first son, which is why he is king of Ayodhya
In the form of Bhagavan Hanuman ji it is the Mother too, he says: Bhagavan Shri Ramchandra ji Maharaj and Bhagavati Maiya Sita regard Hanuman ji as their first son. It is for this reason that Hanuman ji is today the king of Ayodhya — the rajpath was given to him, and seated in Hanumangarhi he is ruling.
What is the route of the trikon after leaving the Vindhyavasini temple?
Coming out from there, the darshan and pujan of Vindhyeshwar Mahadev; after that go straight to Kotwali and do darshan there — Batuk Bhairav ji, Bhagavati Bhairavi, then Bartar Hanuman ji — and then leave from there. You may also go to Lal Bhairav, but it will become long; so in place of Lal Bhairav take the road straight from beside Bartar Hanuman ji and come to the Pratyangira chauraha. There do the darshan of Bhagavati Pratyangira. On the way is Nihut Veer Hanuman ji; do his darshan at the time of returning. While going, wherever the sthan of devatas falls on your left side, go on kindling camphor there.
Where does the trikon parikrama end?
From the Pratyangira chauraha go straight on and reach Hanuman ji nearby, Bandhwa Veer. Having done the darshan and pujan of Bandhwa Veer Hanuman ji, go out to Kali Khoh; from Kali Khoh to Ashtabhuja, from Ashtabhuja to Tarapith, and from Tarapith back to the temple of Vindhyavasini Mai. Whatever devi devatas you meet on the way, go on kindling camphor at the place of them all.
What paath and remedies counter the ill effects of Shani?
Asked about paath and independent remedies for the ill effects of Shani, the speaker says you may recite the paath connected with Shani, Shanishwar Mahagraha: the Dashrath krit Shani stotra. At the shami tree that stands in a temple you may make a donation of lamps. How is the lamp to be lit? Whenever Shanishchar or Amavasya falls, on that day thirteen lamps should be lit for the sake of Bhagavan Shani — a lamp of mustard oil, with black sesame put into the mustard oil.
Can the Bajrang Baan be sidhed in Savan?
Asked whether a vidhan may be performed in Savan to sidh the Bajrang Baan, the speaker says it absolutely may. Along with it, certainly do a small Shiva pujan as well: at the very least perform abhishek while reciting the twelve names of Shiva ji, the names of the twelve Jyotirlingas. Do this much alongside without fail, and after that sidh the Bajrang Baan.
What should be done if the positive shakti with us is not helping?
Asked what to do when one has some shakti and yet negative energy still troubles, the speaker says this is a matter to be seen: whoever the positive shakti with you is, increase that shakti. Suppose some gan of Hanuman ji is with you but is unable to cooperate with you — then you should perform the anushthan of one of Hanuman ji's forms, the one-faced, five-faced, seven-faced or eleven-faced, with the full vidhi vidhan. Along with it, the seva puja of Bhagavan Shri Ram and Sita ji should be done together with the Ram Darbar.
A Hanuman chaupai is used as the samput of the Sundarkand, and eleven Bajrang Baans are recited daily.
If you cannot have that much done, the speaker says, then do it yourself, but on every Tuesday or every Saturday have the samputit Sundarkand recited. As for the samput mantra, tell those doing the paath that the negative energy is of such a kind, and have them apply as samput whichever chaupai serves for the invocation of Hanuman ji and the obtaining of his grace. You will get very swift benefit. Along with it, do the paath of the complete Bajrang Baan yourself in the house at least eleven times daily, and make the sound of it.
May a householder worship Kaal Bhairav at home?
Asked which stotra or paath of Hanuman ji is good for all kinds of situations, the speaker says: do the Badvanal. Asked whether householders may do the puja of Kaal Bhairav, he says that at home, instead of doing the mantra japa, puja and sthapana of Kaal Bhairav, one should do that of Batuk Bhairav; the puja of Kaal Bhairav should be done outside the house, in a Shiva temple and such.
Does Hanuman ji take offence at too many Bajrang Baan recitations?
Asked whether Hanuman ji will take offence at too many recitations of the Bajrang Baan — as if to say, who are you to put me on oath by Ram ji — the speaker says: you should sidh it and keep it, and the prayoga should not be made again and again; the prayoga should be made when some distress comes. If there is no distress in your life, then there is no need at all to recite the Bajrang Baan.
What should be done where Marana Tantra has been commissioned against a household?
The speaker's preference is the Sabari Kavach, the Narasimha Mala mantra, the Mahabhairav, and Hanuman's Bajrang Baan — things that bring quick benefit. The Narayana Kavach may also be done, but in Hindi it protects only up to a limit; perform such Anushthans at a temple.
What should be done with the old photograph once an idol is brought?
Keep the photograph behind and the Shri Vigraha in front; perform the worship on the Vigraha and show incense and a lamp to the photograph as well. The speaker treats it as no great matter.
What can be done immediately where Marana has been performed by several practitioners?
Do the Roti Vidhan at once. Where the difficulty is severe, first make a four-faced lamp of wheat flour and perform the Kshetrapal removal rapidly, and only then apply the Hanuman Chalisa Samput with the Hanuman Janjira mantra.
What happens when masan vidya is used against someone?
The speaker says listeners will be astonished. When masan vidya is used on somebody — kache kalve, masan, that kind of thing — then there we use Hanuman ji, we use Bhairav ji, we do prayogas connected with Kali ji and with Bhagavati. But no person ever says there that you should do a prayoga connected with Bhagavan Shri Ganesh. It is a very great subject.
What order must be followed before any principal sadhana?
In the field of tantra, before beginning any particular principal sadhana, the sadhana of Ganpati and the sadhana of Bhairav ji are extremely necessary. Guru, Ganpati and Bhairav run in this order: first guru sadhana, then Ganpati sadhana, then Bhairav sadhana — in which you may also do the sadhana of your own kul bhairav. After that the sadhana of your kul devi-devatas, anything connected with the pitrs, anything connected with the kundali; and only then do you go to the principal sadhanas. If the sadhana is connected with Bhagavati, then after Bhairav ji the sadhana of Hanuman ji should also be done.
In south India the birth festival of Hanuman ji is kept on the Kartik Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi
He says that in the month of Kartik, before the Chaturdashi — in south India on the Kartik Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi tithi — the birth festival of Bhagavan Shri Hanuman ji is celebrated, and he will give this thing at that time.
Which oil is burnt for which purpose?
Asked whether mustard oil can be used in the puja of Hanuman ji, he answers that it absolutely is. Whenever we do any protective prayoga, mustard oil alone should be burnt. For the sake of protection, mustard oil; for the sake of Lakshmi ji, pure ghee, and if that is not available then til oil or sweet oil; for attraction, vashikaran, or the fulfilment of any wish, til oil.
What gives immediate protection from an enemy?
Asked for a prayoga by which immediate protection may be obtained if some enemy suddenly attacks — nowadays enemies do not strike from the front but from ambush — he answers that if you are speaking of it physically, then there is the Janjira of Hanuman ji. There are a great many such mantras of Hanuman ji, and a great many such mantras or sadhanas of Bhairav ji. In the ordinary way too, if you do sadhana of Hanuman ji and Bhairav ji, or sadhana of Bhagavati, in greater and greater quantity — if you take diksha and do formal japa of their mantras up to five lakh, or recite any of their stotras, kavach and the like in that manner — then you will obtain the protection you are wishing for and thinking of.
Hanuman Badvanal can be done without a guru if it was prescribed to you
To a listener who has been told to do Hanuman Badvanal but has no guru, the speaker says he can do it — there is no problem.
Hanuman Shatnamavali can be recited without the bija
The speaker says Bhagavan Shri Hanuman's Shatnamavali stotra can certainly be done without the bija.
Consecrating the foot band with a rakshak deity
The speaker says the foot band is best consecrated with the mantras of the rakshak (protector) deities. Before wearing it, dedicate it to the shakti of any one of Bhairava ji, Hanuman ji, Ganesha ji or Narsimha ji: do their pujan, bathe the band in raw milk, offer dhoop and deep, scent it well, offer it to them and leave it for at least one day — longer is better; for instance offered to Bhairav ji on Navratri Pratipada and worn again on dashami. The offered band may be worn, but once it has gone on the foot it must never again be placed at the puja place.
Can metal be filled into a hollow Hanuman murti?
Asked whether metal can be filled into a Hanuman ji murti that is hollow inside, he says that now, if you have metal filled in, they will heat it and pour it — and a worshipped vigraha becomes pratishthit, so do not have that done. And at the outset, do the guru pujan of Ganpati ji, that of Bhairav ji, and having done the pujan of Ram ji and Sita ji, then do it.
May a murti of Hanuman ji in his child form be kept?
Asked whether a murti of Hanuman ji's baal swaroop can be kept, he says: keep it, brother — nowadays people are keeping everything, you can keep it, if your bhavana is in that form. For baal Hanuman ji you may keep it; keep his murti along with Maa Anjana.
Can the sadhana of Hanuman ji and Shiva ji be done together?
Asked whether the sadhana of Hanuman ji and Shiva ji can be done together, he answers: why can it not be done — absolutely do it.
If women do not touch Hanuman ji and Shani Dev, how can Shani be served?
A questioner writes that she had read that just as girls do not touch Hanuman ji, so too Shani Dev is not touched, and asks how Shani Dev can then be served. Every deity has some rule of its own, he answers, and to disregard those rules is dangerous for oneself. Behind the prohibition on touching Shani Dev, or Rahu and Ketu, or the child forms of the gods, or the form of Hanuman ji, there is some cause; and understanding those causes is beneficial for you.
Which forms of Hanuman ji may not be touched, and by whom?
The prohibition on touching is not on every form, he says. Where Dakshinmukhi Hanuman ji is, there it is forbidden, because that is an ugra form; where Hanuman ji is seated on a pretasan, then it is forbidden that you touch. And it is not only for women: for the ordinary sadhak who has not obtained deeksha, whose deeksha has not taken place, it is also forbidden.
Can the sadhana of Bhairav ji be done together with Hanuman ji?
Absolutely, he answers: you can perform the sadhana of Bhairav ji along with Hanuman ji. Certainly do it.
Can the beej mantra of Hanuman ji and the mantra of Bhairav both be recited?
Yes, you can, brother — do it, he answers.
What should a woman do about sadhana during her monthly period?
There is no difficulty, he tells the questioner. These things happen with mothers and sisters; so if it is possible for you, cook and eat food made by yourself, if you are doing that kind of sadhana — especially if you are doing a sadhana of Hanuman ji. Otherwise there is no difficulty at all: if you are doing sadhana of Bhagavati, there is no difficulty.
Who may take up the sadhana of Bedi Hanuman ji?
Why do you wish to do the sadhana of Bedi Hanuman ji, he asks the questioner. If you are initiated in tantra, then it is all right, you may do Bedi Hanuman ji; but do his sadhana only when you will have done the preliminary sadhanas. Do sadhana of this kind only if your brahmacharya does not break, if everything is right, and if you are strong in mind — otherwise, if you have made any error after doing all these sadhanas, then folding your hands there will be of no use. He cites Daksha Prajapati, who went on speaking the Panchakshari mantra of Bhagwan Shiva at the last moment, and whose head Virabhadra ji blew off; so do the Bedi Hanuman ji sadhana with thought and understanding.
What happens when you begin Hanuman puja against an active enemy?
A chowki of Hanuman ji is seated; you decide to do Hanuman ji's puja. You did puja on the first day, they came to know, and you will feel a little relief there. From their side they will do four or five such works — not directly on you, because you are doing it, so they will do something on somebody else in your family. You have a chowki seated at home, you are doing Hanuman ji's puja at home, but at some time you will go out; something will happen so that the body is impure or unclean even for a short while.
Hanuman did great works on Ram's name alone, and still people place no trust in him
Hanuman ji can do such great and great works only by taking the name of Ram ji, he says, and yet you all simply do not have trust in that very Hanuman ji.
What if something plays in the body and does not let you do japa and puja?
When something is playing in the body and not letting you do puja, you should first take somebody's help, he says; there you will not be able to manage by yourself. When a jagrat thing comes upon the body you will not be able to do very much, and if you do it at all, do it not at home but in a temple. The prayoga of Hanuman ji is the very best in this; the vidhan is given on the channel. If nobody is available, you can get free of it by doing those prayogas. But if it is a very big thing and you know it to be so, then rather than doing it yourself, have it done through somebody else.
How should a pishachini be brought under control?
To Sachin Kumar Bhopche ji he asks why a pishachini is to be brought under control at all — is there some difficulty, or have you fallen into the business of making things siddh? Do not get into any of these things, he says; get free of them. Bhoot pishach nikat nahi aave, Mahavir jab naam sunave — where are you people falling into? He also notes that the video on the Gayatri mantra has been made and will be uploaded.
If you do a daily havan holding Gurudatt as guru, can tantra still succeed against you?
To Aadi Chintan ji he says that if the grace of the guru, the grace of the guru mandal, comes, then nobody will wish to do tantra — how would he be able to? And he draws the parallel: the Brahmastra was not going to have any effect upon Hanuman ji, but to keep the honour of the Brahmastra he was bound; for him it was nothing. In the same way, if you are doing the sadhana of Bhagavan Dattatreya and someone performs a tantra prayoga upon you, then to keep the honour of that tantra you may suffer harm. But it will not be very great; it will be for some time. If he does a very great tantra prayoga, it may be that if he has done a marana that one finger of yours breaks, gets cut, something happens. There will be an effect; you will be troubled a day or two, troubled a week — but after that there will be nobody left to save him. Shaktis keep the honour of shaktis.
Is there any devi or devata who is not ugra?
Asked who said that the sumiran of the devi should not be done because the Mata is an ugra form, he tells Amrit ji simply to do the path of the first mantra of the Argala; there is nothing of that kind. Which devi-devatas are ordinary, he asks — which devi-devata is not ugra? Who has not ended some wicked one? Which swaroop is there like that in our Sanatan culture? Hanuman ji is a Vaishnav, and he killed so many demons by turning himself into a monkey. All are ugra; not one is saumya. And has Narayan not killed? He has ended so many people, ended the wicked. Then do not take his name at all. Now do Ram-Ram — Ram killed Ravana, who was so great a wicked one; Ram ji killed him, did his vadh. So now let us not take Ram ji's name at all, because Ram ji has become ugra.
How is the shringar of Hanuman ji done?
The chief shringar of Hanuman ji, the speaker says, is the chola shringar, which should be done on Saturday and Tuesday. The chola is applied from below upward: on a paan leaf, the kesariya sindoor — called bhakhra sindoor, or the orange-coloured Hanuman sindoor — is soaked in chameli oil or in desi ghee, and then, taking Ram ji's or Sitaram ji's name, the chola is applied from below upward.
What is offered after the chola in Hanuman ji's shringar?
After the chola, the speaker says, the Ram naam should be written on paan leaves — at least eleven paan leaves — and a garland made of them, or else written on a bargad leaf, and hung around Hanuman ji's neck. After that, if you wish, shringar may be done with banana fruit or with banana leaves; all these things are very dear to Hanuman ji.
May a chalisa or stotra for another deity be read during a running sadhana?
Do one sadhana at one time, the speaker says. This is a kind of dosha, and in itself a very great dosha: that you are doing sadhana of one and want the grace of somebody else within it. Then it means you have no trust in your aradhya, in your ishta, or in the deity of the mantra you are doing japa of — so where will they accomplish your work.
Can Hanuman ji and Bhairav ji stop a tantric prayoga?
To stop whatever is running on adharma, the speaker says, senior things can be used. He says he does not wish to abuse anyone, but abuse escapes his mouth at those who say that Hanuman ji and Bhairav ji cannot do this and cannot do that. Nothing of the sort is so: everything is stopped, everything runs — the one doing it must be of that kind, and one must have trust in one's own ishta and aradhya.
May Sundarkand be read only on Saturday?
Asked whether doing the paath of Sundarkand only on Saturday will do, the speaker answers: yes, it will absolutely do.
What happens in a sadhak's life after the Hanuman Chalisa is made siddh?
Whatever things have been stated occur — all the things that Tulsidas ji has told within the Hanuman Chalisa, the speaker answers.
What can be added to a Tuesday Hanuman puja beyond the Chalisa and Sundarkand?
Bhakti ji asks what to add to her Tuesday Hanuman puja in the temple, apart from the Chalisa and the Sundarkand. Do this, the speaker says: add Hanuman ji's Sahasranama, and add a Kavach as well.
For which deities may a copper lamp be lit?
It may be lit for the ugra devas and for Bhairav ji, the speaker says. It may be lit for Hanuman ji as well — in Hanuman ji's name, for him too.
What can be done for someone in jail?
Three. First, Hanuman ji's Chalisa — 108 recitations a day for forty-one days, done duly by rule or had done. Second, the Durga Saptashati Anushthan. And third, japa of the Jayanti Mangala. Whichever of these is possible for you.
How should the Tulsidas Brahmarakshas account be read?
As a Tantric matter, not a story. When Hanuman ji's grace was not being obtained after many attempts, Tulsidas took the help of this Tantra; and the Pret gave him Darshan and told him where Hanuman ji was. He did not accomplish it as a Siddhi, and it did not bind him — because his object was something else.
Kul prayog with a known or unknown kuldevi, and the kul Bhairav who always accompanies her
The speaker says a person will be in one of two situations, either knowing who the Kuldevi is or not knowing who the kula's shakti is, and the prayog is to be done in both. He says it is not only for the kuldevi but also for whichever protector devas of the kula hold the pad of Bhairav. He says one may take it as one hundred percent certain that a Kula Bhairava, a protector deva, is with the kuldevi whether one knows of it or not, in whatever pad, as a Veer, a Mahavir, in the form of Hanuman or of Bhairav. Bhairav, he says, is a pad obtained by a protective deva, possibly by an earlier siddha of the kula by the Devi's grace, and over time people forget or never learn of it.
The daily havan of the kul prayog: the rot, the thirty ahutis and their order, and the ash
The speaker says fire is kindled in the earthen pot or kund with cow-dung upale or mango wood. Beforehand, after bathing, a Rot is made from wheat flour, Gud and ghee with a little black Til, cooked in ghee, then crumbled and divided into thirty pieces: twenty-seven for the Kuldevi and three more. Facing out of the house and working quickly, with the mantras said in the mind, the first three Ahuti go to Ganesha, the kul guru and Hanuman; if the Kulguru is known he comes first and Ganpati second, otherwise Ganpati first. The remaining twenty-seven are offered in the kuldevi's name with namah added and no Om, for example Durgaya namah, swaha being optional; if her name is unknown one says kuldibbe namah swaha. He says namah is compulsory here and the usual havan rule of swaha without namah does not apply. Afterwards water is taken in the hand, circled three times round the kund and poured there, the fire is left to burn out, and the ash is removed and collected in one place.
What is the moonj yajnopavit offered to Hanuman ji?
Moonj is a plant related to kusha, and brahmacharis make its janeu and put it on Hanuman ji — what we read in the Hanuman Chalisa as "kandhe moonj janeu saaje". If on the day of Kushotpatini Amavasya the moonj plant is brought with vidhi-vidhan and a janeu is made from it with full vidhan, with the complete pujan of nine tantus and the japa of Gayatri and the rest, and it is put on Hanuman ji, then special grace is attained.
The one meant is the mantratmak Maruti stotra of Vasudevanand Saraswati
Akash ji says he has found the Mantratmakam Shri Maruti Stotra by Shri Vasudevanand Saraswati in the Gita Press Hanuman Ank, and asks whether that is the one he had meant. Yes, Akash ji, he answers, do it with that; and send it to him on Telegram once and he will look at it too.
Where the effect has remained, do the anushthan of the tantrokta Bajrang Baan
Yes, if it went in the char and its effect has remained, then do the anushthan of the tantrokta Bajrang Baan, the complete one that has been given on this channel. It is certainly possible. By the grace of Hanuman ji, he says, do not even by mistake ask this again, Satpal ji — whether it is possible by the Bajrang Baan. It is altogether possible. If you do the anushthan of the Bajrang Baan in the right way, what is not possible?
Which ekakshari bija can be used for dehri and body protection?
The speaker says he does not insist on the Samput being made with Bhairav ji's Ekakshari; one may use any bijakshara, even of a saumya devata, though which deity's mantra to use is not a common matter. One may use the ekakshari of Hanuman ji, of Bhagavan Batuk Bhairava, of Narasimha ji, of Bhagavati Kali or of Durga ji; whichever it is, at the least receive that mantra by Dev Deeksha vidhi at some divine time, do 4 lakh japa of it and 7000 japa of the Saptashloki, and then use it for life. It serves not only for protecting the dehri but also for the protection and Bandhan of someone's body, and with shraddha, he says, it can be used lifelong for the protection of home, family or a person's body, sitting anywhere. He adds that a fuller vidhan of it will be shared on the channel in future.
Can there be a kuldevi when the kula devata is Hanuman ji?
Yes — if the kula devata is Hanuman ji, there can absolutely be a kuldevi as well, the speaker says.
What is the harm in glorifying Ravana?
He says that in the effort to glorify Ravana you insult Hanuman ji, you insult Ram ji, you insult Vashishtha Muni and you insult Agastya Rishi — and asks where you will suffer for it. He tells listeners to read and try to understand the puranas, to ask acharyas and scholars, or, if they do not know, to keep quiet.
Where should the Kartik deepdaan be done, and how often?
Deepdaan must certainly happen at both times, morning and evening; the evening deepdaan is absolutely obligatory. It should be, roughly, a small daily form of what is done at Diwali — near Hanuman ji's dhwaja and near Tulsi ji. One who protects and serves Tulsi ji in the month of Kartik is held to be the equal of Vishnu ji himself, and every man and woman should certainly do Tulsi seva in this month.
Should the lamp be lit for Tulsi on a Sunday in Kartik?
The speaker says that whether it is Sunday or any other tithi, in the month of Kartik light the lamp not right up close to Tulsi ji but, for instance, near Hanuman ji's dhwaja if Tulsi ji stands beside it. On that day do not light one separately for Tulsi ji if such a scruple is in your mind, and light it on the remaining days.
What if you live in a city and know of no veer?
If you have no information about anyone, if you live in a city and cannot find out at all which veer is worshipped there, then you should go and give puja at that Hanuman ji temple which stands at the boundary of your town; or at a Bhairav ji temple which is on the boundary of the town or near it, giving the puja of the first and last day there, according to what is offered to them at that place.
What remedy is there for release from imprisonment?
A listener says her father and brother have been in jail for a year and asks what remedy to do for release from imprisonment. Have the samputit path of Hanuman ji done, the speaker says: do or have done this samputit path of the Sundarkand every Tuesday. With which mantra and how it is to be done, he asks Ruby ji to message him on Telegram — even in the group — and he will send the whole vidhi of the samputit path.
You have strength enough to lift the hundred kilos, but the path to the weight is where it is spent
That you have great strength within you — enough to lift a hundred kilos. You are challenged to come and lift it and show your strength. But on the road to the weight, before you reach it, fire is lit and a piece of hot iron is laid down, which you can neither walk over nor step across; so you never lift the weight, and the other man says you never had any strength at all.
The parable is about the silver vark people place on Hanuman
It is the greatest mistake people make, he says: they place silver vark on Hanuman and afterwards say that Hanuman does not come to remove their sorrow and their suffering.
Are there not factories making silver vark properly now?
He grants that at present there are some factories where silver vark is being made in a perfectly correct manner. But the mistake, he says, is that people have no information about how the vark they buy is being prepared — they only know that if they offer silver, Hanuman will be pleased, and they please him with five or ten rupees of silver.
If someone wishes to offer silver to Hanuman, what should they offer?
Spend a little more money, he says: put a silver kada on Hanuman's feet; have a silver Ram made, a locket of Ram ji, and put it around his neck. He will be pleased with you for a lifetime. Instead people offer ten rupees of silver vark, copying what they see others do.
How is silver vark made, according to the speaker?
It is shown in some places that the silver is placed in the skin of a sheep, and in others that it is placed inside the pouch of a cow's intestine, and then beaten. Anything that must be made very long and spread out will tear if beaten directly, so the thing it is placed inside must not split under the blows — and that is what the thin sheets of leather are for.
The Marwari shopkeepers still keep the Tuesday and Saturday laddu by the old rules
The Marwari shopkeepers, he says. Having travelled to Rajasthan, to Jammu, to the east and a little to the south, he has met such people everywhere — especially of the Marwari samaj — who on Tuesday and Saturday keep a separate, entirely fresh arrangement of laddu for Hanuman's puja, and ask whether the sweet is for Hanuman before giving it.
Why was the practice of offering silver vark started?
To block that samarthya, he says — somewhere or other this practice was set running for exactly that purpose. In the same way Bhairav was turned out of the house, with people saying do not do Bhairav's puja; and today too people are having Krishna, Kanha, the Laddu Gopal taken out of homes, and stopping the puja of Hanuman, saying do not worship Balaji.
Why did Hanuman's worship become so widespread?
Because his seva-puja was the easiest of all, and the Hanuman Chalisa was memorised by everyone. And the first condition of Hanuman's sadhana is that keeping brahmacharya is extremely necessary — and when brahmacharya is kept, tej and bal in the body are bound to increase.
Who used to do Hanuman's sadhana in the older pattern?
All the people who formerly learned pahalwani used to do Hanuman's puja in particular — in the akhara, in kushti, and for going to the field of war, doing his puja and his sadhana especially, doing sadhana in the veer bhav. And there were also those who did the siddhi of Hanuman's veers, his chief ganas.
The invaders analysed their defeats and introduced the vark rather than striking directly
It was not that invaders came and finished everything in a single stroke, he says. When they were defeated they analysed where this was coming from; and in the way Bhairav's puja was made to stop, in the same way, to stop this too, they used a vark. Look, he says: the use of silver vark did not exist before — such thin varks were not made in that way.
Offering vark is a very great paap, and no scripture supports it
Consider how great a paap you are committing, he says. Factory-made vark is available today, but the factories are not showing the full procedure either — German silver and Chinese silver are named, but no authentic source is to be found. If a source can be established that it truly is 100% vegetarian and no such things were used, only then use it.
What may be offered to Hanuman in place of vark?
If you have so much wish to offer silver and silver is not beyond your means — offer Hanuman a Ramnami locket; have some ornament of gold or silver made for him and offered; put a mukut on him; a mala of Tulsi; Ram written on a paan leaf, Ram written on a peepal leaf. Offer those. Which bhakta ever said to offer chandi ka vark?
No description of the practice exists anywhere — offer dry sindoor or ashtagandha instead
Because the question kept coming, he looked at it properly, and nowhere is there any description of it, nowhere has it been said to do this thing. Bring pure sindoor, pure oil, pure desi ghee — and if you make ghee at home yourself, offer that. If it is not available, offer dry sindoor; there is no difficulty, Hanuman will be pleased. Offer ashtagandha.
Who takes the dosha when vark made in gau mans is offered?
You do. When you offer silver vark that was made inside gau mans, since you are offering it yourself, you are the one who becomes at fault. What is it to Hanuman — Hanuman is Rammay; what dosha is going to attach to him? It is you who are doing this to him.
What happens when a person in trouble calls upon Hanuman?
Wherever you may be, when you are caught in trouble and you call Hanuman — however great a mlechchha enemy stands before you, however base a tantra and whatever kshudra shaktis he may have used — Hanuman's samarthya is crores of times greater. The other can only use pret and pishach; Hanuman is Bhagwan himself, not some small divyatma. But you must have within you the capacity to invoke him in that manner.
The Sundarkand, and the dhyana beginning atulit baldhaam, is what to read on Hanuman
Sundarkand — whoever does its path should do it at the very least once or twice a year. In Sundarkand a great many things about Hanuman are learnt, how much samarthya he has. And when the dhyana of Hanuman is done, the very first thing that comes is "atulit baldhaam" — he whose bal is unweighable, whose strength has no limit at all.
What happened when Hanuman went before Bali?
Bali had the boon that whoever came before him, half of that one's strength would pass into Bali. When Bali went to quarrel and to fight with Hanuman and Hanuman came before him, so much strength entered into Bali that his body was about to burst — he could not bear the tej. Brahma appeared and said: Bali, go away from here; you do not have the samarthya to bear his tej.
How is the strength of a single hair of Hanuman reckoned?
The bal of one hair of Hanuman's body is held to be equal to ten thousand vajras of Indra. That is why, when people speak of a sakshatkar of Hanuman, he never appears with his full tej — never in Kaliyuga.
Arjuna's chariot burned the moment Hanuman left it, and Karna fainted at his roar
That Hanuman was seated on the dhwaja above Arjuna's chariot; when the war ended, Krishna told Arjuna to look at the chariot a last time, for it would not survive — and the moment Hanuman left the dhwaja, the chariot was reduced to ash on the spot. And that when Krishna was struck by an arrow, Hanuman grew enraged and roared; Karna, who stood before him, fainted from fear, and Krishna said this is not Treta but Dwapar, they cannot bear your tej — do not come into the middle of the work, be seated on the dhwaja.
In war his samarthya equals that of Yamraj, Indra, Vishnu and Kuber
The bal of Bali and of Ravan was very great indeed. And in war, whatever samarthya Yamraj, Indra, Vishnu and Kuber have — Hanuman's samarthya is that much.
Which is the shamshani form of Hanuman?
Panchmukhi Hanuman is chiefly held to be the shamshani form, as Masani Hanuman; and whatever form stands above that has its own separate dhyana svarup, and its puja too is done in that manner.
Is an anushthan of 108 paths of the Bajrang Baan permissible?
A listener says he wishes to do an anushthan of 108 paths of the Bajrang Baan and has already completed eleven days according to what the speaker had told him. Very good, the speaker replies — certainly do it, the anushthan of eleven, of 108 paths.
Why is a man who always worships Hanuman still caught in trouble?
He answers that he cannot state the cause — the cause is your own karma, and its prarabdha, that you are stuck in trouble. And you are worshipping Hanuman so that he may take you out of trouble. Do you serve your parents only so that no trouble comes to you? Do you feed them in old age only for that? Is there so much self-interest? That we have suffering in our life and therefore we do puja is no argument at all; it is an unrelatable matter, of the kind that says all your troubles will be solved in one minute — meet the Baba Bengali expert in shamshani ilm. Do not let anything of that kind come within you.
What should a person in trouble do who is not guru-dikshit?
If you are guru-dikshit that is a good thing; otherwise, at the least, do a daily havan with the Hanuman Chalisa itself. Do havan of a kind that matches the trouble you have, at both times, morning and evening. It is not much expense: bring an upla of cow dung, kindle it, and give ahuti of ghee over it — and if ghee is not possible, give ahuti with ordinary havan samagri. Do the sadhana for 41 days; supreme kripa will be obtained. Along with it, do japa of Ram's name too and do the path of the Ram Raksha Stotra.
Which lamp should be given to Hanuman in the temple and at home?
In the temple, lighting a one-mukhi lamp for Hanuman is the best; if you light a lamp of ghee it is most excellent of all. At home you may do the seva-puja of a one-mukhi or a Panchmukhi Hanuman, whichever — there is no difficulty in it.
What shakti sits on a peepal that even a Hanuman sadhak refused to remove?
If it was to be removed from the peepal tree and it did not move, there can be a great many reasons, he says; and as for the shakti, on a peepal it is mostly Brahm. It will be a khooni Brahm — someone may have brought and seated it, or it may be there of itself — and in removing it there is very great risk indeed.
The Hanuman Panjar, the Hanuman Badvanal and the tantrokta anushthan are still to be given
Asked for the complete puja vidhi of Hanuman, he agrees to tell it, and quickly — the Hanuman Panjar, the Hanuman Badvanal, the tantrokta anushthan.
May sindoor and chameli oil be offered to a Hanuman murti at home?
Asked whether sindoor and chameli oil may be offered on the Hanuman murti kept at home, or whether it should be done only on a temple murti, he says: you may offer it at home too, there is no difficulty.
Whom of Ravan's family did Hanuman defeat?
He killed Akshay Kumar outright. He had beaten Meghnath too. He thrashed Kumbhakarna as well. And he landed a single punch upon Ravan too — meaning he beat the whole of that clan.
What does Ramcharitmanas say about Meghnath avoiding Hanuman?
It is described in Ramcharitmanas, he says, that after having come to know the vital point of Hanuman's punch, Meghnath always felt himself defeated before him; even on Hanuman's calling him out again and again, he would not go near him, and kept away from him with great care. The line is: "बार-बार पचार हनुमाना, निकट न आव मरमू सो जाना" — Hanuman is challenging him again and again to come, and Meghnath is not going near.
What is the Nikumbhila Saptashati?
This is the same Meghnath who, by the kripa of Devi Nikumbhila, bound Indra. For those who wish to read the method of the Saptashati connected with the Siddh Kunjika and the Nikumbhila shakti: with the samput of "Shulena Pahi No Devi" it is called the Nikumbhila Saptashati. Consider it, he says — he had that siddhi, and such a siddhi that he bound Indra; and he goes about avoiding Hanuman.
Chained as a calf, the grown elephant never tries the rope again
When an elephant is small, when it is a calf, it is kept tied with great heavy chains, thick ones, so that it cannot break them. But that same elephant, grown large, is never tied with a chain — a small thin rope is wound near it and it is left, and the elephant never even attempts to break it. The reason is that from childhood it has been filled into his mind that he will not be able to break it. When he is grown he knows there is no gain in trying, that he will not break it. It is when the elephant goes mad that he breaks it.
Can Hanuman be japa'd in the morning and Kaal Bhairav in the evening for 41 days?
Yes, it can be done, he says — provided you have this much time and capacity. There is no difficulty, because you will be worshipping both in a satvik way, and that will do. But if you are going to do a special siddhi, then do only one of them; that will be better.
How should the sadhana of Bandi Hanuman be done?
Why do you wish to do the sadhana of Bandi Hanuman, he asks — do that of Bandi Mochan instead. If you must do the sadhana of Bandi Hanuman, then go away to Purushottam Kshetra. Only at that place is his sadhana done; only at that place should it be done.
Should the sindoor from Hanuman's feet be put on one's own forehead?
Those upon whom the prayoga of tantra has been done should apply it, ordinarily. And otherwise, in the name of Ma Anjana — if a woman has a great wish for it, she may bring sindoor kept near Hanuman and apply it; and if a married woman is under a tantra prayoga she too may apply it. Hanuman will protect. Ordinarily it is in the name of Bhagavati Anjana Maiya.
A path was done during an eclipse — how is the savari now to be released?
For the releasing of the savari, do continuously, at a Hanuman temple, taking a sankalp, the anushthan of that very same thing whose path you have done.
Can Hanuman's face be towards the south in a temple?
Yes — there are Dakshinmukhi Hanuman; it does happen. The nairitya kona is the chief one: Hanuman's face is chiefly in the nairitya kona, that is the corner that lies between the south and the west. And in that way there are Dakshinmukhi Hanuman too.
Will a chameli oil lamp do for Hanuman at home?
Asked whether a lamp of chameli oil will do for Hanuman at home, he answers: it will do entirely.
Why do those particular paths pacify Shani?
Because Bhagwan Shani's aradhya is Narayan: he did Krishna ji's puja, did Krishna ji's seva, and going to Goloka he obtained peace; he does the seva-puja of Krishna in a special way, and so by Krishna's name he will obtain peace and be pacified. He has given Hanuman a boon, so if you do Hanuman's seva-puja you will get peace. He is Shiva ji's disciple, so if you do Shiva pujan you will get peace. And above all of these, if you do the seva of Jagadamba no graha will trouble you in this way; the prarabdha happening is a separate matter, but the pain that comes from the grahas will not come.
What can a man working twelve hours a day do when daily japa is not possible?
Do only two things, he says. There is a stotra of Hanuman in which his twelve names are told — commit those twelve names to memory. In the morning when you wake, do its path twelve times; or after bathing, in the morning, do the path twelve times. It will take you two to three minutes. In the evening or at night, whenever you come home, after washing your hands and feet, changing your clothes and freshening up, light a lamp and do the path of that stotra twelve times again. Do just this much.
How is petha offered, and can laung bali be given to Hanuman?
If you have to offer petha, its vidhi will remain the ordinary one; but if you have it done at some temple it is better.
Is Hanuman's japa to be done after eating garlic and onion, and is there a Mandar Tantra?
The japa of Hanuman should not be done after eating garlic and onion, he says. And asked whether there is any grantha called Mandar Tantra — yes there is; Mandar vidya is an anga vidya of Bhagavati, having a separate mantra of its own, and Mandar Tantra is a different thing altogether.
May Hanuman and Bhairav sadhana be done at the same time?
Do not do the sadhana of Hanuman and of Bhairav ji together, he says. Do them separately; do the seva-puja together.
A line of the Hanuman Chalisa is given to be used as the samput of the mantra
To Bharat Prajapati ji he says to make a samput of this mantra: "सब सुख लहे ही तुम्हारी शरणा तुम रक्षा काहू को डरना".
Should the Panchadev Vigrahas be kept at home, and how is Kartikeya worshipped?
The Panchadev Vigrahas should certainly be kept at home. For Kartikeya, install either his Shri Vigraha alone or one joined with his Shakti, and then perform the whole Panchanga Seva by his prescription. But his worship, like Hanuman ji's, carries the strict obligation of full Brahmacharya.
Can a Hanuman mantra be done without Deeksha?
It would be better taken with Deeksha. Doing japa of the mantras of any of the Vir-bhava deities without Deeksha increases the fierceness considerably. Until Deeksha is obtained, perform his Ashtottar Satnam Anushthan instead, or his Kavach — the Chalisa and Bajrang Baan everyone may do.
For what purposes is Hanuman worshipped?
For the protection of brahmacharya, for shakti and samarthya, for the destruction of enemies, and for the swift attainment of divine siddhis — for these, he says, the pujan of Bhagavan Hanuman ji has importance.
Which bal swaroops should also be remembered?
Look at the bal swaroop of Bhagavan Ganpati ji, of Bhagavan Hanuman ji, of Bhagavan Shri Ramchandra ji Maharaj, of Bhagavan Krishna ji; look at Bhagavati Bala Tripurasundari; look at the bal swaroop of Bhagavan Kartikeya. The smaran and pujan of these too, he says, you should perform — when a special need arises, you can perform the pujan of all these bal swaroops.
What do the Mundis do today?
These are the Mundis, he says, who are making you dispassionate about your own pujan path, telling you your deity is small, and by any means turning you from your mula pujan, from your mula devata, from the devi and devata of the house and the kula. If your kula devata is Bhagavan Hanuman ji, if your kula's devi is Parameshwari Mata, then bhaiya, she is everything for you, and you cannot obtain anything against their will.
How many Hanuman jayantis are there, and is jayanti the right word?
Two chief parvas are coming, he says. One is Hanuman ji's jayanti — by kalpa bheda two jayantis of his are chiefly observed, though in fact there are three, and there is also his own wedding anniversary. If all of these are discussed, he says, a separate uproar will start; an uproar will begin over the word jayanti itself, that jayanti does not exist, do not say jayanti, that the word is used for a dead person.
What should be done at every Sanatani home on Hanuman Jayanti?
On the day of Hanuman ji's jayanti, the day of the Purnima in particular, he says, if you did not do jhanda pujan or dhwaj pujan at home on the day of Ram Navami and did not give the dhwaj its place, then do it. In the home of every Sanatani, he says, there must certainly be a dhwaj of Bhagavan Hanuman ji.
What should the dhwaja be mounted on if there is no land to plant it?
If your land is not large enough to plant a flag, he says, then tie it somewhere — and certainly use bamboo. People fix it into a rod, into steel, into iron, into a chhad; use a rod if you must, but tie the bamboo to that rod. If bamboo can be had from the market or cut from anywhere, then however large the flag, the flag will be pure only on bamboo. Bamboo and mango pallav must certainly be there — the mango pallav tied above, bamboo below, the flag mounted on bamboo and put up there on bamboo itself.
What is prescribed for a problem of vansh vriddhi?
Those who have a problem of vansh vriddhi, whose line is not increasing, he says, should offer water at a worshipped bamboo tree — not by going to a new place associated with bhoot and pret, because a great many shaktis are seated at such places who do not sit anywhere else. If it is such a revered place, or if you have put up bamboo in Hanuman ji's dhwaja, then offering water there daily has a very positive effect; it also holds the capacity to destroy that curse, and it is a token of vansh vriddhi.
Is there a wedding observance of Hanuman ji?
Yes — as he had just said about Bhagavan Hanuman ji, his vivahotsav too is observed. And there are a great many special prayogas and vidhi vidhan attached to the vivahotsav, he says.
Who is called Mahakaul in the tantra kshetra?
If you know anything at all of the Kaul marga, he says, you will know that Bhagavan Shri Krishna has been called Mahakaul, and Bhagavan Shri Hanuman ji too comes among the Mahakauls. Just as among the nitya upasakas of Bhagavati Shri Vidya you will know of Indra Dev, Varuna Dev, Kuber Dev, Maharshi Agastya Muni and Bhagavati Lopamudra, so among the Mahakauls, those who daily perform the upasana of the maha forms of Bhagavati are Bhagavan Shri Krishna Chandra ji Maharaj and Bhagavan Shri Hanuman ji.
Which forms did Hanuman ji perform the upasana of, and how does the ashta siddhi arise?
There are certain special forms of Bhagavati Kali connected with the shamshaan, he says, and when Bhagavan Shri Hanuman ji performed the upasana of those forms, it was for that purpose that what is spoken of as the ashta siddhi nav nidhi arose. The matter of siddhi is not so simple, he says: when you go in and further in, you will find out why it was said that marriage was necessary here for Hanuman ji.
Why is shakti necessary as vamangi?
Why did Bhagavan Surya Dev have him married to Bhagavati Suvarchala, he asks, and which siddhi did both of them obtain by it; why did this have to be met only after the panigrahan sanskar; how does the importance of shakti arise in shakti upasana; why does shakti become necessary here as vamangi, and for a woman the purush tattva, a man, become necessary. The atma has no gender, he says — the purush and stri forms are of the body the atma has assumed, and for the completeness of the one who performs karma and tries to attain siddhis, each being only half, this becomes unavoidable.
What should be done at home on Hanuman Jayanti itself?
We will do all of this, he says, but do not sit comfortably at home eating jalebi. On the day of the shamshaan, when it is Mahabhairav, do the deep daan of Mahabhairav; and on the day of Hanuman Jayanti perform a havan with the Hanuman Chalisa, with your family — at the least, do it with the family. It is a Saturday, and Saturday too is Hanuman ji's day. The time of Shani Dev is running, he says; Shani Dev is very dangerous, and if you wish to be saved from him, then perform a havan of the Hanuman Chalisa with your family.
How should Hanuman ji be worshipped that morning?
On the Saturday it is the Purnima, Hanuman ji's jayanti, he says. Morning, noon or evening, whenever suits you; if it can be done early in the morning, that is very good. If there is a shri vigraha or a photograph of Hanuman ji at home, perform his shringar. With a paan leaf, with a peepal leaf on which the beej mantra of Ram ji is written, with a leaf of tulsi ji, perform the archan; perform archan with red flowers, do a sahasrarchan and so on, very beautifully — and after that perform a havan of the Hanuman Chalisa with your family.
Why is Batuk Bhairav puja at home compulsory?
Batuk Bhairav's puja is extremely necessary, he says. Just as you do the pujan of Ganpati and the puja of Hanuman ji, in the same way Bhairav ji's puja should compulsorily take place in the house — Batuk Bhairav should be worshipped in every home.
How was Bhairav kept in ordinary homes when images could not be made?
Symbolically. In the medieval period images could not be made in every house, so at the Tulsi chaura — where Hanuman ji's flag is planted — elders would grow five Tulsi plants, keep khadaun near the flag, and a little away at the side plant a trishul. The trishul was the symbol of Bhairav and Hanuman ji the symbol of Langurveer; both are raksha-karak devas.
Can an old clay lamp be washed and used again?
In his own view, the speaker says, washing an old clay lamp and using it again is not right. To the second point, that a clay lamp harms the environment, he answers that a baked clay lamp does no harm — it breaks up and finishes somewhere or other; if it is a lamp made of some other kind of clay, that is a different matter.
Is Hanuman ji a Vedic deity, and do the timing rules for his puja bind?
There is a description of Hanuman ji in the Rigveda too, the speaker says — Hanuman ji is a Vedic deity, and full information on this will be made available soon. As to doing Hanuman ji's puja between 7 and 2 in the morning and after 5, since he is in Ram ji's service later, that is a matter of bhaav: the description is given according to bhaav. Hanuman ji's swaroop is worshipped independently; it is not as though he exists only in the bhakta form.
How did Hanuman ji come to Shri Ram in the dasya bhaav?
The speaker says that during the time of Shri Ram ji's vanvas, Maharshi Agastya ji gave him diksha of the Ekadash swaroop of Bhagavan Shri Hanuman ji and told him the vidhi of performing the sadhana. When Shri Ram did it, Bhagavan Ekadashmukhi, pleased by it, granted this blessing — call it a boon — and fulfilled it: that I shall always remain with you in the form of a servant. And he gave his help.
Is it true that Hanuman sadhaks should not do Bhairav sadhana?
A listener says he saw it stated in a YouTube video that those who do Hanuman ji's sadhana should not do Bhairav ji's sadhana. The speaker replies that he would not have said such a thing and does not know who did — who said that Bhairav ji's puja should not be done along with Hanuman ji? Such great people abound, he says, and it is their followers who grow, because everyone wants an easy path: do less work, do less puja, worship Hanuman ji only on Tuesday.
What is the correct order of guru pujan, Ganpati, Kaal Bhairav, kuldevi, Hanuman and Shiv?
First guru pujan, then Ganpati pujan, then the pujan of Bhairav ji, then the pujan of Hanuman ji, then the pujan of Lakshmi Narayan, then the pujan of Bhagavati, and then at last the pujan of Shiv ji.
Can Bhairav havan be done monthly while performing Hanuman mantra siddhi?
Absolutely, it can be done, the speaker answers. To Ashish Patel ji, who writes that there has been pret badha in his house for twenty years, he says that the Batuk Bhairav Ashtottara Satnamavali will be posted on the channel the next day, and if he wishes to do it at the present time, he should begin its anushthan at home from 16 November.
Both vessels take the same bhog; a tulsi leaf in one of them makes it the Vaishnav bhog.
In one vessel Vaishnav bhog. In both vessels put the same things — the kishmish and kaju you usually offer, or panchmeva, or whatever sweet bhog you offer. In one of them put a tulsi leaf: all the Vaishnav shaktis connected with Narayan, Hanuman ji, Krishna ji, Narayan, the Ram Darbar, all of them will accept the bhog from that one. The second vessel is for all the remaining shaktis — kul devata, kuldevi, whatever their form. Then you will not have to set out vessels in ten places.
What if the other side really is doing abhichar?
Then you have used mantras carrying shatkarma-related ugra beejas — sphrem sphrem, khrem khrem and the like, and especially mantras of Hanuman ji, of Bhuteshwar Mahadev, and the various tantrokta mantras of Bhairav ji — simply by reading them off. The speaker says people today are extremely frustrated; the comments are full of it. Nothing is working, nothing is working; nobody will do the work, they are all frauds and hypocrites, so we will do it ourselves and take revenge on everyone.
Who is the rishi of the Panchmukhi Hanuman kavach?
The speaker says that when you go inside tantra you will see many such subjects. Read the kavach of Panchmukhi Hanuman, read the kavach of Saptamukhi Hanuman. In tantra it is described that the sadhana of Panchmukhi Hanuman was performed by Bhagavan Shri Ramchandra ji; and when you do the nyasa and viniyoga of the Panchmukhi Hanuman kavach, there too you will read Ramchandra rishi — that is, the making of that kavach and its first recitation, siddhi and grace were done first of all by Bhagavan Ramchandra. Consider, he says: he whose aradhya Rama is — Rama himself did the sadhana of that form so that friendship with Hanuman ji might be established, and that is the description.
Why did Hanuman ji have to marry?
The speaker says he has said it in a live before and says it again: Hanuman ji had to perform a marriage. Everyone says that of the ashta siddhis, for one siddhi it was compulsory that he marry before the diksha could be given, and for that reason Hanuman ji had to marry — Surya Narayan had him married to his own daughter. When you study the agama granths connected with Bhagavan Hanuman ji, he says, you will come to know which form of Bhagavati he had to worship at that time, which siddhi it was on account of which he had to marry, and how that siddhi was obtained by him; and how he obtained his Markateshwar form, by the puja of which form.
What does tantra unveil about how Hanuman attained his powers?
No form is simply so, the speaker says: we know Hanuman ji ordinarily, that he took avatar, and the boons within him are a separate subject — that in childhood he received boons for everything. But when the attainment of these came to him, and in what manners it came, is unveiled in tantra. It is in such things that you will find the information.
What is the value of svadhyaya even if one cannot practise everything?
Svadhyaya is never wrong, the speaker says: only if you do svadhyaya will you be able to give information to others. If svadhyaya is not done today, then since nobody can do so many things in his life, at least information can be given and people can be motivated. Tomorrow when you go before Hanuman ji you are going knowing only that you will recite the Hanuman Chalisa composed by Tulsidas ji — but when you come to know about his other forms, when you come to know about his samarthya, think how much your surrender will increase.
By what strength did Hanuman crush Ahiravan and Mahiravan?
Do you know today, the speaker asks, that the boon Ahiravan and Mahiravan had received was such that even Brahma was under their control? And yet Hanuman ji keeps such Ahiravan and Mahiravan trampled beneath his feet — by the strength of what capacity? What shakti's capacity was that? How did Bhagavati Tara become stambhit before him — that Tara who is that form of Jagadamba which pacified even the fury of Bhagavan Shiva's poison?
Is Lankini only a rakshasi?
The speaker asks in what form Bhagavati Lankini was established in Lanka, and why she said nothing before Hanuman ji, how she let him enter. Lankini is not only a rakshasi: Mai too is there in a Lankini form. Recite the Sahasranama and you will find the Lankini form there to read — and you will say that this is the name of Lankini the rakshasi. But in the Sahasranama, he says, "mutra sudhani" is also written: that is, the place where mal and mutra are, in that place too is a form of Jagadamba. Nothing has been left out anywhere. This is Kaul, he says; this is the truth, and there is much to be known.
What must be done after the keels are removed from a house?
After removing the katua keel, do the bandhan of the house properly by the vidhi of Mahavir Hanuman ji. Before doing the bandhan, prepare both panchagavya and panchamrit and thoroughly purify the whole house with the mantra of Bhagwan Narayan — using the Pundarikaksha mantra and the like. After that do the kshetrapal nikari, and only then do the bandhan, so that nothing of theirs remains standing there.
Do women incur a dosha from seeing chola being offered to Hanuman ji?
Asked whether women incur a dosha if they see chola being offered to Hanuman ji — the questioner's pandit having given a time after 9:00, when temples are very crowded — he says he has heard such a thing, and if learned people say so then it presumably happens; but in his own knowledge it is not so, that a dosha would attach merely from seeing the chola being offered. He adds that since she has raised it he will certainly ask whether it is so.
May a griha bandhan be done with the Hanuman Chalisa and lemon and cloves?
Asked whether the lemon-and-clove griha bandhan can be done with the Hanuman Chalisa, he answers yes, absolutely it can be done; he has already given the vidhi.
What is the vidhan for perfecting the Hanuman Janjira on Holika night?
He says the vidhi of the Hanuman Janjira has been given on the channel. On Holika night, at the time of day, invite Hanuman ji and perform his pujan, offering rot, langot, dhvaja, paan, supari, laddu, tulsi patra and a garland of paan leaves; then at night do 11 malas of japa of the Hanuman Janjira and one mala of ahuti with gugal. The mantra will become chaitanya. From the next day onward keep doing one mala of japa each day, for as long a time as possible.
What if a few days are missed during a crore of Ram naam japa?
Asked whether, having taken up one crore of Ram naam japa, one may still do the Hanuman Veer sadhana if two or three days are missed for some necessary cause such as an exam, he answers yes — for the one, two or three days that are missed, do mental japa according to your capacity, and the krama will remain intact.
May a silver kada be perfected with the Hanuman Chalisa?
Yes — perfect a silver kada with the Hanuman Chalisa; he calls it very good.
What happens to a house's protective shaktis when a bali offering is made deliberately impure?
The shaktis will withdraw from it. Ordinarily put, it is a matter of making impure — because one would have to spread impurity deliberately. The shaktis will certainly withdraw. As for the Mahashaktis, he says, if you do the avahan of Hanuman ji then they will mount and be seated and the whole story will end — but this is wrong: you are making it impure.
What is the guru mantra of Hanuman ji?
Asked what the guru mantra of Hanuman ji is, he says he does not know — he has never asked Hanuman ji what his guru mantra is. All he knows is that Hanuman ji takes the name of Bhagwan Shri Ram; if there is some other mantra, it may be asked one day, if kripa comes.
In a sabar mantra with an opening line, is that line said every time?
Asked, of the sabar mantra of Hanuman ji given for the house and for raksha bandhan, whether the line at the start is to be spoken every time in the japa or only at the beginning, he answers that it is to be spoken every time — the whole mantra is to be spoken every time.
Which devi is beneath the foot of Kasht Bhanjan Hanuman?
Asked which devi is beneath the foot of Kasht Bhanjan Hanuman ji and what her relation with Hanuman ji is, he says he will tell it separately, because the subject connected with it is perhaps incomplete in his knowledge; he will get the full information and then tell them.
May a tulsi mala be used for Sitaram naam jap and for Hanuman ji?
Asked about Sitaram naam jap on the tulsi mata mala, or on that same mala in place of Hanuman ji, he answers yes, absolutely it can be done.
Why must the griha bandhan be done in any case?
The griha bandhan should certainly be done, he says, so that at least an obstruction arises: if the other party projects tantra, it should not be that he gets a completely open field, goes right inside, has a quarrel started and a fight break out. Let him too meet a little obstruction. This much can be done. And there is no difficult vidhi here — the vidhis of Hanuman ji and of Bhairav ji are ones a man can do comfortably.
