Bajrang Baan dhooni on apamarg wood for a disturbed house, and its limit without siddhi
The speaker says two remedies were started in that house, which he calls the most special and always effective for quick relief; the effect was still new, though the girl's trouble had begun. The first was a bajrang-baan Dhooni: on Apamarg wood, with mustard, black pepper and red Gunja mixed with Guggul, the Bajrang Baan recited seven times in the morning and seven times in the evening while the dhooni is shown through the house. It gave about 20 to 25 percent benefit, because the family had no siddhi of the Bajrang Baan; done without siddhi it was not very effective.
Pret-pishach disturbance after a deity is bound: Bajrang Baan and Mahabhairav havan on apamarg wood
If after the binding a paishachik obstruction has been set up in the house — pret and pishach running riot where the household deities used to be — the speaker says one should do havan-type prayogas at that very spot. Recite the bajrang-baan daily; if you do 21 recitations, do havan with at least 3 of them on apamarg wood. If you recite Bhairava ji, Mahabhairav is the most unfailing: do at least 5 recitations and havan with 1 of them in the evening. With havan of these — Hanuman Chalisa included — this bandhan will be cut and the bhoot-pret obstruction will lift; use Kshetrapal nikaya prayogas alongside. A knowledgeable helper is best, but he says people are often not satisfied with one today, and you can do this yourself and free your kul deities and get your puja through to them. This, he says, is the simple vidhan.
Havan mix that opens a bandhan: apamarg wood, cow-dung cakes, mustard and red gunja for 41 days
The speaker says the safe paths — Mahabhairav, the Hanuman Chalisa, Bajrang Baan, Kali Chalisa or Durga Chalisa — should be used as Havan on Apamarg wood: apamarg wood, cow-dung cakes, and with them mustard (sarson) and red Gunja; mix these and give the ahutis, and bandhan and the like will open. If you do one mandal, 41 days, he says it simply cannot be that the bandhan does not break, however much Bali and the like was given to bind it. And if a laag of bali is not releasing, you will get the order again and again through dreams and the like: go to this place, this spot, and offer this bali there — and that bandhan will be cut too.
What is the fiercest form of the white gunja mala prayoga?
Yesterday a prayoga was described, the speaker says — according to vanaspati tantra, the use of a mala, how one is to use a mala of white gunja for the destruction of certain thoughts. Asked how ugra its vidhan will be, he recalls that he had said to keep apamarg wood in the eight directions, in the hand itself; upon that apamarg wood you can afterwards do dhooni.
How is the apamarg prokshan for ailments performed and when?
Whoever has an adhi or vyadhi in the body is to be sprinkled with the apamarg, and it is to be thrown away early in the morning. Asked when this is to be done this time, the speaker says it will be on the Tuesday morning, because the morning Amavasya falls on the Tuesday.
Sesame oil on the body, prokshan with apamarg wood thrown outside, and only then the bath — daridrata is said to be destroyed by it.
Applying sesame oil to the body, perform prokshan with the apamarg wood and throw it outside; only then bathe and so on. This should certainly be done, the speaker says: daridrata is destroyed by doing it here.
Which samidha is best for the Bhairav havan, and how many ahutis?
The most excellent samidha is the wood of apamarg, or else the wood of khair; a Bhairav havan performed over khair wood has the most divine effect. Establish Agni Devata in the kund according to vidhi over the khair samidha, and if you have done 100 paths of the stotra Shatanama, give ten ahutis with each name — that is, a thousand ahutis. With 108 names it works out to about 1188 ahutis.
What is said about apamarg and Chaturdashi?
He who does puja with apamarg on the day of Chaturdashi obtains Shiva sarupya.
Dried apamarg wood is the fuel for a dhoop of abhichar nash, a cow-dung upla failing that.
Whenever the dhoop is done for abhichar nash, he says, use apamarg wood — dried. He notes that it is raining heavily everywhere just then, so arrange for a little dried apamarg wood; and failing that, a cow-dung upla.
Why must the dung cake be of a cow and not a buffalo?
It should not be of a buffalo, he says: in the buffalo one the ugrata increases, and it does not suit everybody. It also depends upon the strength of the kula deity, and there must be purity — which is why it should be a cow's dung cake, a cow-dung upla. Or else apamarg wood, which is the very best.
Dried aak wood is added to the apamarg for a prayoga made with Ganpati's kavach.
Supposing the listener has completed Bhagwan Ganpati ji's kavach and wishes to make his prayoga, then he should use a little of the samidha of aak. If dried aak wood can be got, it is excellent to use it. Apamarg will be there anyway; let aak be there as well.
One use is the lamp, the material applied to the wick and lit with no further mantra; the other is the dhuni over apamarg and khair kindled with camphor.
After charging it, one use was the lamp one: in the lamp you have only to apply it to the vartika, the wick, and light it — no mantra and no further prayoga is required. The second use has the samidha of apamarg and khair wood: kindle it with camphor, and when it begins to burn, make the dhuni of this material over it.
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.
When should the Batuk Bhairav and Chitrapal Bhairav tantrokta procedures be started, and why not right away?
Alongside, if the tantrokta paddhati is also begun — all the vidhi vidhan of Batuk Bhairav ji, the vidhi vidhan of Chitrapal Bhairav ji — those are all done afterwards. Start them at least after a month or so, along with the vidhan of the dhuni with apamarg wood; then full reduction comes about in these things. Doing them directly carries the possibility of some problem, meaning it may not succeed.
What is the ark prayoga for griha bandhan?
Or, he says, the use of ark, that is of juice — such as nimbu, or akvan, or a twig of apamarg wood that is still quite wet, that is, not dried. When all these are squeezed, ark comes out of them; those arks too are made abhimantrit, and with them we perform griha bandhan — but for that the four directions, the whole of your house, must necessarily be open.
How long does the ark digbandhan last?
He says that when we perform digbandhan with it, this digbandhan is not for a long time, but take it that its effect is in great intensity for at least a sawa mahina. The effect stays maintained for a sawa mahina; after the forty-five days of a sawa mahina the effect slowly diminishes; it works for three paksha. It is used especially when some particular work is going on and the effect of the bandhan keeps falling away again and again.
Why does the ark prayoga work as it does?
Because whenever ark is used, he says, three kinds of tattva become present there just so: the gandh becomes most intense, and because of the gandh, both below the ground and in the air, the presence of the shakti tattvas that have been employed is formed.
What materials are used in a tantrik dhwani?
He says the tantrik dhwani depends on whose it is; but ordinarily, in a tantrik dhwani, yellow mustard, red chirmi and apamarg wood — if you use these, then abhichar will be destroyed and whatever prets and pishachs there are will be removed.
Which woods can be used with apamarg in a havan?
Answering a question about the havan from the Mahabhairav stotra, he says apamarg wood burns up quickly. Along with apamarg wood you can use navgrah wood, and you can use upale of cow dung. Any separate wood from among the navgrah woods; and on your side, in the Rajasthan direction, shami ji's wood is found in plenty, so you may use those woods in greater quantity. When you are offering ahuti with the mantras of the devi-devatas that are kavach and the like, or in the ahuti of shabar mantras, using shami ji's wood is very good.
When should the abhyang oil bath be taken?
Asked when one should bathe after applying abhyang oil, he says they will make a short video tomorrow about how the apamarg stick is to be brought, and how, after applying til oil on the body, the prokshan is to be done from the body and then it is to be thrown away. By it, he says, the greatest abhichar and the cutting of tantra happens, and the shanti of the grahas takes place. He says he is noting it down and will put it up tomorrow; two or three videos will come tomorrow, in which this is necessary.
What mantra and materials are used for a dhuni?
Do the mustard dhuni on Apamarg wood, as described before. Either consecrate the material once with the mantra and do the dhuni daily, or do the dhuni while reciting the mantra. And each evening sprinkle a little gomutra mixed with Gangajal using Kusha, with the Narasimha mantra — or the Dattatreya Mala Mantra at night.
Protective dhooni of apamarg wood with black pepper, yellow mustard, red gunja and guggal against abhichar
The speaker says the sixth vidhan, to be started at home morning and evening and continued for a long time, is a Dhooni: light cow-dung cakes or, best of all, Apamarg wood with camphor, and on it burn a mixture of black pepper, yellow mustard, red Gunja and guggal, while reciting Hanuman Janjira, Bajrang Baan, Hanuman Chalisa, Narasimha mantras, or any protective mantra one has made siddha — sabar, tantrokta or puranokta. It is not a havan, so there is no Dosha. The energy it creates destroys Abhichara; do it both times of day for at least seven, and certainly up to eleven, days.
How is a sadhana sthal cleansed after it has been spoiled?
However badly anyone may spoil your sadhana sthal, the speaker says: as soon as you understand it, first clean the whole house thoroughly. Sprinkle gomutra and gangajal, and burn outside the house the sweepings and rubbish that come out when you clean and sweep. Do the kshetrapal nivari, give a bali and so on; take a coconut in the house, one with water, burn camphor upon it, carry it through the whole house in the name of Bhairav ji, and give its bali outside the house. If you do all this, the house will at once become energetic again through the dhoop dhuna. And if there is greater trouble, make a dhuni upon the wood of apamarg — whatever the thing is, it will be removed then and there, however much he may have seated.
How is Apamarg fumigation performed to cleanse severe home afflictions?
Apamarg wood is ignited with pure camphor, then yellow mustard seeds and red Abrus seeds are offered while reciting bajrang-baan and spreading the smoke throughout the house daily — asthmatic family members should step outside during this.
What remedy addresses severe weakness and lethargy caused by black magic?
Wearing red clothes, sitting on a red mat facing East, lighting a cow dung cake, and offering yellow mustard and red Abrus seeds while reciting bajrang-baan at least 5 times counters weakness and energy loss from black magic — a week of daily Apamarg fumigation restores physical energy.
Mustard, apamarg and guggul dhuna for tantra kaat at home
After the door lamps, the speaker says, mustard seed and kapur are burnt together on apamarg wood while reciting the same namavali or path you have taken up — for Shiva it may be the Shiv Kavach anushthan, or the Shiv Raksha Stotra one he says he will also give. First charge the mustard: keep it in a bowl, touch it, and recite the mantra of your path (say the Durga 32-name sadhana) at least 11 or 27 times. Then in a dhuna vessel burn the apamarg wood first, sprinkle a little mustard on it, and when it is half-burnt add a little guggul and ghee and carry the smoke through the entire house.
How can Baglamukhi satnaam help against repeated shamshanik tantra by enemies?
Harish ji asks how, when enemies repeatedly do tantra and it is a matter of the shamshan, this can be set right with the help of Maa Baglamukhi's satnaam. First complete the satnaam sadhana once, the speaker says. Then, using the havan vidhi on Apamarg wood that was told in the previous day's live, if you begin offering ahuti of Bhagavati Bagla's 108 names with the sankalpa that shamshanik tantra, the vichar karma and Kritya prayoga be destroyed and we be protected, then that work will be accomplished.
How is a bhoot-pret that is taking the puja at the household shrine to be removed?
Whenever it seems so, he says — and he has cleared in two videos how bhoot-pret come and how you may know that pret-pishach are taking it — havan-form prayoga connected with the ugra devatas of our Sanatan sanskriti should particularly be done. And in havan-form prayoga too there is a matter of what kinds of things are to be used. Where the trouble is of the vichar kind, in the house, the greatest thing to be used in the havan is the wood of apamarg — the samidha of apamarg.
What is apamarg used for in the astra mantras?
Know this, he says: as many astra mantras as there are for the destruction of abhichar, whenever their havan is done — to destroy something, to destroy some abhichar — this is not normally done in a house, it has its own method; and in it the samidha of apamarg is an extremely necessary article. When he tells people about apamarg they think it is nothing much; they are not understanding the thing. But it is a very great thing: if there is any vanaspati most capable in the destruction of abhichar, it is the wood of apamarg.
Why do women in the South make lamps out of lemon juice at the Chamundeshwari temple?
Yes, this thing is done, he says, and he too will soon have it done — as the amla one and the coconut one are done, so he will tell the lemon one to be done too. The reason behind doing it is that lemon is extremely capable of driving negative energy far off; it works the most swiftly of all. As the wood of apamarg, the samidha of apamarg, smashes negative energy — striking like a shula, striking like a vajra — in that same way the lemon too casts a most swift effect. Laung and kapur too are very sharp.
Are apamarg and chirayata the same thing?
Take apamarg, he says, and admits the mistake: there was probably a confusion in his speaking, and he accepts the fault that in a great many videos he said chirayata. Chirayata is chiefly used as well, but with a difference — using the wood of chirayata only brings a reduction in the effect of the things; they do not go away, their effect is lessened. He and his people use both things.
What is chirayata used for?
Chirayata is chiefly used where a nazar dosha has been cast. There are people who have learned things of that kind and need only come and look — as when some girl's hair is very long and she is very lovely to look at, and they will remark on it, saying how long her hair is, like a cow's tail, touching the ground; they will merely say it, and the other person's health will be ruined. It is at this place that chirayata is chiefly used. Apamarg one is using for the destruction of tantra. So take the wood of apamarg — the one called chirchira, oonga and many other names.
What apamarg dhuni does he prescribe for a woman troubled by a kshudra/negative energy?
The first work: bring the samidha of apamarg into the house. And daily, mustard, red gunja, black pepper and camphor — mustard is to be taken, black pepper is to be taken, rakta gunja is to be taken, and camphor, with a little guggul along with it. Mix all of these together and pound them. After pounding, kindle a cow-dung upla; let it burn and glow well for ten minutes; then dip the apamarg wood in mustard oil or ghee, either one, and place it upon the fire so that it may burn a little. When it begins to burn, do the path of the Hanuman Chalisa quickly and keep pouring the mixture over it. There is no need to say svaha — do the ordinary path of the Hanuman Chalisa and go on adding the whole samagri you have made. When it begins to smoke fully and the Hanuman Chalisa path is completed, show that smoke through the whole house, and where she sleeps, place it there and leave it.
For how long should the apamarg dhuni (for a negative-energy affliction) be done, and what if she cannot manage some days?
Do this work continuously, he says. On the four or five days of the month when you will not be able to do it, you are not to take tension over the difficulty — you may have someone else do it if you wish, and if nobody does it, leave it off on those days; for the rest of the time do the thing at ease. Within a month, a month and a half, you will begin to get its auspicious effect from the very first day; and by the time a month, by the time forty-one days are done, this thing will go away from near your body for good, and at the least you will not have trouble of this kind. Do it at both times, morning and evening.
Nightly Baglamukhi sabar havan of sarson, guggul and kali mirch on apamarg wood against abhichar
The third task, for the night, was against the Abhichara itself: mix sarson, Guggul and kali mirch and do Havan on Apamarg wood with Bhagavati Baglamukhi's Sabar Mantra, 108 times daily. The speaker says the samagri is prepared and kept ready; in the evening or as night falls, first 10–11 opening Ahutis go in the name of Guru, Ganpati, Bhagavati and the kul's devi-devtas, then one mala — 108 ahutis — is offered while reciting the Aghor sabar of Baglamukhi. When the whole samagri begins to burn it is carried round the house and set down near the main door. This was the one part of the routine that was never allowed to lapse.
Bulk abhimantrit havan samagri so the daily Baglamukhi ahuti never lapses
The speaker says he also told the family that in a Parva Kala they should take about a kilo of Guggul and two or three kilos of yellow sarson and kali mirch — the Apamarg wood kept separate — put it in a large new vessel in which no food has been eaten, and do five malas of the Aghor Baglamukhi Sabar Mantra over it; it takes two or three hours and the whole stock becomes abhimantrit. Then, whenever the members who did the sadhana were away, anyone in the house could simply offer five or eleven Ahutis from it and show the smoke round the house — the niyam must not break. Feeding the cow, dog, crow and ants and lighting the lamp at the Shiva temple anyone could do; the path and puja only the two or three regulars could, so the rest did this much in their absence.
Which parts of the apamarg plant may be used, and how?
In apamarg, its panchang can be used — its flower, leaf, stem and root, all of it can be used. It should be dried and then used in the havan. He adds, on two or three sankalpas taken together, that it will be much better if you take one sankalpa.
