Rudrashtak with kesar water: the Shiv Navratri remedy for dosh and curses
Every kundali throws up a dosh or two, the speaker says — grahan dosh, pitru dosh, Kaal Sarp Dosh — and a dosh means some shraap received; without a kundali the signs are repeated miscarriages, vehicle troubles and the like. For release from any dosh — dev dosh, pitru dosh, a curse from parents or anyone — the first thing to do in Shiv Navratri: put kesar in a brass lota, add water, hold it in both hands, recite Rudrashtakam at least 8 times (27 if there is time), then pray to Sadashiv to free you from every kind of shraap, including the baddua someone spoke from a hurt heart — Bhagwan removes such a curse by changing that person's bhaav toward you. Do it daily from 10 to 18 February. For work stalled a long time despite every effort, do it all nine days with full surrender; it is not a totka.
A young child's kundali is not read; parents may do rudrabhishek on the child's behalf
Parents ask whether they can do Rudrabhishek and nine days of pujan for their four-year-old whose kundali shows Kaal Sarp Dosh. First, the speaker says, a four-year-old's kundali is not shown. The dosh of the bal-grahas is told once, when the janma kundali is first made at Shashthi and the like: the pandit says that at such-and-such ages up to thirteen, this shanti is to be had done. In between, no kundali is shown and nothing is read. Still, granting the dosh, the parents can do everything themselves — rudrabhishek and any pujan they wish, taking sankalp; and if it was told at the time of birth, that is fine, and a rudrabhishek by a pandit ji on any day of Shiv Navratri can be had.
Merit earned on Vyatipata Yoga or Mokshada Ekadashi condensing ten years of Prarabdha into one, and the Shiva-Manasa 108 names against Kalsarpa Dosha
Spiritual practices on potent conjunctions like Vyatipata Yoga or Mokshada Ekadashi can condense ten years of Prarabdha suffering into a single year; for Kalsarpa Dosha, have the afflicted person recite the 108 names of Shiva and Goddess Manasa daily alongside a milk-and-water Shiva Abhisheka over the serpent Vasuki.
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 dosha is incurred if an installed vigraha is left unworshipped?
If it is not happening daily, then that very dosha will attach, he says, and there will be no remedy of it — some kaal sarp dosha shown in the kundali, that there is kaal sarp dosha, deva dosha, pitr dosha, pitr shraap, matri shraap, that idea will be reduced to that much. But the reality will come out from here: that yes, you had the pratishtha of the vigraha done and have not done their seva, so this is a dev-shraap. It has been said that if the pratishtha of a Shiva temple, of a devi temple — meaning the pratishtha of a vigraha — is done and it is kept unworshipped, then their Bhairavs, growing angry, open their jata; meaning that they come into an ugra form, and even if they are in a bala form there, they attain ugrata in those kshetras.
How is a mala treated in the Mahabhairav mantra japa?
A mala such as the one used when we do the japa of the Mahabhairav mantra has a different process, he says: in that we should take it off, do the japa, and then wear it. Asked about a Kaal Sarp Dosh or a birth on Amavasya, he says a little seva of Bhagavan Shiva ji should be done; and if you cannot do Ma's shringar, have it done at the temple.
What is the sarp dosha associated with Rahu in the fifth?
It is not that they produce only states of delusion, the speaker says — if they are giving delusion, then the full opportunity is also with you; and there is the further point that a person deliberately begins to take pleasure in it. Secondly, if Rahu is present in the fifth house of the birth chart, then one dosha that arises is the sarp dosha: that in a past birth we must have caused harm to a serpent in some way, on account of which Rahu's presence formed in the fifth house. It is taken as naag dosha.
Which upasana removes the naag dosha of the fifth house?
The upasana of Bhagavan Shiva and Bhagavati Manasa as far as possible; the upasana of Ananta along with Bhagavan Shri Hari Narayan; the upasana of Vasuki ji along with Bhagavan Shiva. And if it can happen once in life, going to Tirtharaj Prayag and taking the darshan and pujan of Vasuki ji is enough — that much suffices to pacify the dosha of Rahu's presence in the fifth house.
Which kundali doshas does this Shravan anushthan address?
Now in anyone's kundali, though the Doshas may be a thousand, if you are performing this anushthan in this Shravan then Bhagavan Shiva grants relief from those doshas — this Shravan and then the next Shravan, and you will see the difference yourself. Suppose in the birth kundali some so-called dosha is present: Marakesh is running, there is Kaal Sarp Dosh, or here a sarp dosha attaches on account of the panchamesh, and many kinds of such subjects. For all those things the abhishek of Bhagavan Shiva is supreme.
What is the simplest remedy for Kaal Sarp dosha?
If you accept that Kaal Sarp dosha is here and you wish to have its removal, he says, then you should do the Sahasranama paath of Bhagavan Shri Narayana or of Bhagavan Mahadev Sadashiva, and do abhishek with that very paath — this is the most easily available and simple upay. If while doing the Sahasranama paath of Bhagavan Sadashiva you do abhishek with milk-mixed water, with sweet water, even every Monday, then you will get mukti from this dosha very swiftly indeed; mukti from sarp dosha and the rest comes very swiftly.
Which Jyotirlinga is best for debt release and for pitru dosha?
For everything the questioner has written, for the sake of release from debt, the speaker says that if you do this especially in the name of Bhagavan Vaidyanath you will get very great benefit. And if there is pitru dosha and the like, then Bhagavan Nageshwar among the twelve Jyotirlingas — although you will get benefit from whichever Jyotirlinga you do, performing shivarchan in the name of Nageshwar gives special benefit in pitru dosha, naag dosha and to those who have Rahu in the fifth house.
What should be done during a Rahu Mahadasha with Ketu Antardasha?
Take Mahadev's refuge and perform the Anushthan of the Panchakshari by the method on the channel — better still in a Shiva temple. And do the daily Abhishek of Shiva's Chaukhat: cleaning it well and then adorning it. In a Rahu, Ketu or Shani period, this gives very auspicious fruit.
Which grahas rule the occult in a chart?
Especially the panchamesh has to be looked at more, the speaker says. After that you have to look at Rahu and Ketu too, because occult science — that is, magical tantra and all such things — has a greater lordship of theirs over it. This is what has been held according to jyotish.
