Laag
Every question on the site tagged Laag, each answered from a timestamped source rather than a summary written from memory.
An occult attachment formed when a foreign entity (a Pir, Jinn, or Sayyid, for instance) is invited into a home and fed regularly — even if it brings short-term relief from an Abhichara attack, domestic peace deteriorates over time and the household's women become especially vulnerable, and the entity becomes extraordinarily difficult to remove once invited and fed.

Offering the two threads: one for Sadashiva, one for the Brahma's peace through him
The speaker says the pujari, if he notices, may ask why the janeu is soaked in raw milk; so before handing them over, take the threads out onto a plate or into the hand and keep the milk with you. When the pujari offers the first janeu, it is offered for Sadashiva. The second is given while saying in the mind: O Sadashiva, for the peace of that Brahma shakti present in our house I am offering this to you alone, please pacify it through yourself; thus the second janeu goes for the Brahma, to Sadashiva through the pujari. He adds that if you yourself wear a janeu there is no worry of Laag here, because nothing is reaching the Brahma directly as worship through you; everything has been offered to Shiva.
Why is using Islamic or Sufi entities for protection dangerous in the long term?
Practitioners sometimes use non-Vedic entities like Pirs, Jinns, or Sayyids to neutralize an attack on a Hindu client, providing immediate relief — but instructing the client to establish regular offerings to these entities at home creates a Laag (occult attachment) that deteriorates domestic peace over time, leaves women especially vulnerable, and becomes extraordinarily difficult to remove once invited and fed.
What a bound household deity does to the family's puja
The speaker sets out the case where the devi-devatas worshipped in a house have been bound through some mantra vidya, some siddhi, some vachan (pledge) or some laag, and asks how that family should then do its seva-puja. A bound deva shakti, he says, can never give its grace properly. After the binding, whatever negative energy enters that place takes your puja for itself, your puja-path stops bearing fruit, and instead trouble begins. The person then thinks his puja-path is useless: the more he worships, the more adverse things happen to him.
What if one unknowingly eats the prasad of shaktis that force their own worship?
Asked how to protect oneself if there are such shaktis as forcibly get their own puja done, and someone unknowingly eats their prasad: the meaning of eating the prasad is that the laag attaches. Whenever such a situation arises and you get information of it, then by kavach mantras and the like, of whomever you have perfected.
Jal, chhak and every laag are all offered at that same threshold
At that same place you have to offer jal, he says; at that same place you have to offer chhak; and whatever Laag you offer, all of it will have to be offered there.
Why must nobody sensitive stand near an utara?
The speaker gives the case: a girl child has some problem, you are performing an utara on her and running the kaat-katan mantra, and another girl child is standing alongside. Somewhere or other the effect will certainly fall on her, because when it is cut, when those things begin to scatter, they will cling to whatever sensitive aura mandala they find nearby. So these people become affected for no reason. Understand this too, he says, as a matter connected with laag.
What does a repeated dream of liquor indicate?
A listener describes a sister's dream: liquor is much seen, as if someone is pouring liquor on a dev vigraha and she is wandering; where everyone is drinking; a girl of fifteen or sixteen years brought her away from there; a lamp was lit and extinguished on a roti and its kajal applied to the sister. He says that if this has been seen once, then it is no matter; if it is being seen again and again, then tell him. Then the subject of laag being applied may be in it.
What should a vegetarian family do whose kuldevi takes a goat bali?
See who can be the receivers of that bali, the speaker tells Vashishth Yadav, and give it to those people after the bali has been offered. Ordinarily the bali prasad of a kuldevi or kula devata should be taken only by the people of the kula parampara — but if you no longer eat it at all, then there is no question of compulsion. Perform the bali at such a place where such people are present and have the right, so that they can eat it. It is not quickly possible to find a middle way in this. And if the kuldevi has a laag attached to her, then it will attach to those who eat it as well, and then a puja will have to be offered there too before they are pacified.
When a laag is cut, in whose name is the rite performed?
Whenever a laag is cut, and so that it does not enter again after the cutting, the whole proceeding will never be conducted for the sake of a lok devata, he says. There it will certainly and always be for the sake of Bhairav ji.
