Guest guest Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 Dear Amitabh, Oh Iam sorry for incompletely quoting my matter. Yes I agree with you on the concept of spirit worship..(Let me add this is my perception and nothing to do with others view -For other members info)).I personally don't like worship those who have passed away.God is always the greatest on earth. But I feel almost all the civilizations on earth have developed one or other ways of pleasing spirits.But the rituals performed varies Also to my previous mail,the gentleman also told me that in each karma the respective God or Goddess should be prayed in different dress codes.He did mention about yellow dress for Goddes maa when in Sthanbhana.What exactly is this Dress codes do?(I think you answered my question here,Thanks) Anupama Anupama V <anu_pama_v wrote: Dear Amitabh, Yes I agree with you on the concept of spirit worship..(Let me add this is my perception and nothing to do with others view).I personally don't like worship those who have passed away.God is always the greatest on earth.

Amitabh Shastri Amitabh Shastri wrote: Dear Anupama, As per Vaastu principles, photographs of the departed souls must be placed on the Southern (first preference) or Western walls; definitely not in the North East portion of the house. Certain self-profounded Tantriks misuse their sidhis (skills) for petty gains. A true Tantrik would never declare that he is a tantrik. For him this world is just a "maya" and he is far-far above the realms of this worldly passions. There are five forms of Tantra - Saur (Solar), Ganpat, Vaishnav, Shaiv and Shakti. The most widely followed is that of Lord Shiva as mentioned in the Agams. Agams are the narrations of Lord Shiv to Ma Parvati. Here Shiv is the tutor and Parvati is the disciple. There is another form - Nigam. Here Parvati is the tutor and Shiv is the disciple. Tantra is widely isunderstood but it is the most elaborate system of auto suggestion in the world. There are many Tantrik texts, they are all off shoots of the Vedas with Athar Ved taking the lead.

The next day he came .Told us "it was a costly one and did you get anything???"Infact we told our dad not to come out and we will manage him.We said yes and gave him the doll.But we made a mistake,the new one had two hands and two legs in addition to the one kept by him.His face turned red and somehow we forcefully made him take that.With that he never returned and we could save our dad's money. Nag Dosha:Coming on this particular incident-I don't think we are having any doshas like that.This has coincidence with a incidence in my childhood.I was in my school and my dad had brought a small Idol of Sarpa to be kept in the drawing room.After that he had been to his work place.Those days my grand parents were alive and they said why to put this in Drawing room let's put this in Prayer room.We kept it there and we were not performing any additional poojas for that.It went on for 1 year and after that we started seeing snakes in the house.The first inside the dining room and next day in the living room .I still remember those days , I came straight from school ,put both my legs on top of a sofa and infact my grandmother had to take great pains to make me walk on the floor and have food. On the third day she handed it over to the nearby temple and with that everything stopped.However we had to continue offering poojas in the temple and if that is delayed we start seeing the same in the house.Infact when I started on with the mantra ,it made a second appearance inspite of the pooja being performed in the temple(that too on the 1st floor ,where the possibility of coming is very remote).Probably as you said I shouldn't have tried that.My intention of chanting was to test the effect and I did stop that with my second trail. Spirit Worship:As mentioned in your mails I have noticed many people putting the photos of those passed away in the prayer room and worshiping them.I personally don't like that.what is your opinion.Is it a good practice to worship human souls who are no more.If God is there ,then why are people worshiping spirits???? Anupama monmuk111 wrote: Anupama: Did REAL snakes enter your home? Is your home on the ground floor or on a higher floor? When the scriptures talk about "snakes entering home," they're saying this FIGURATIVELY not LITERALLY. Snake on a mundane level represents evil/evil people/evil things. When the scriptures say that due to a particular combination in one's horoscope "snakes will enter the home," they mean that this person will come in contact with evil people or experience evil and unpleasant things. You shouldn't chant mantras UNLESS they're harmless mantras like Gayatari mantra or simple Shiva (Namaha Shivaya) mantra or Ganesh mantra--even SOME Ganesh mantras can be used NEGATIVELY to control other people. Some Hanuman mantras can be used negatively. And a lot of "Ma Kali" mantras can be used negatively. Some Tantriks use these mantras to capture spirits--I have personal experience of this--A Tantrik (for whom I was a complete stranger) I met told me almost everything about my life and correctly answerd ALL my questions--even accurately told me my bank balance. The most shocking part was that my air-plane (en route to India) had made an emergeny landing in Iceland due to a couple of fire alarms going off and this Tantrik said-"you had an inaupicious event happen on the airplane." I hand't even told my parents about the emergency landing as they worry toomuch. I enquired with some older/experienced Jyotishas and they told me that these Tantriks capture spirits with some Black-magic mantras and these spirits whisper answers into the ears of the Tankrik whenever their client asks questions and these Tantriks don't have any miracle remedy for changing a person's fate.--My Tantrik took a lot of money from me for remedy to my marriage situation, but the situation still remains the same. Mantras have a specific purpose and shouldn't be chanted unless needed for that purpose. Mantras should only be prescribed by someone with 20-30 years of Jyotish experience who has training in contructing a mantra. The mantras have to be person specific, i.e. someone with Ketu in 12th house would need a Dwadakshari Ganesh mantra and someone with Ketu in 5th house would need a Panchakshari Ganesh mantra. -- Very similar to doctor prescribing different medicines to patients with different diseases. I bet you don't have "Sarpa yog" in your horoscope.
