Black magic
Start writing...Speaking plainly, black magic is a kind of malicious activity that is performed with the objective of achieving selfish goals by invoking evil spirits. The practice is called witchcraft and it involves weird practices like casting spells to harm others and gain from such sinister actions. Believe or Not Should you believe in this sort of stuff? I would say, it's foolish to just brush aside such things without knowing what it is or how it works. It is believed that practitioners of black magic use certain secretive methods to exploit the elements of nature to achieve their objectives. Black magic is found all over the world and no society is free from it although it is widely accepted as a normal activity in many societies while in many others it is practiced reluctantly and less intensively. There's no question of rubbishing it because there are enough instances that show it is real even though it appears to be a world of its own. Black magic also known as witchcraft is usage of supernatural power for evil and selfish purposes and to perform malicious practices to destroy someone physically or mentally or financially. It can be done using the victim's hair, clothes, photo or looking directly into eyes. Practicing black magic is not something new, it has been practiced since generations and hence we need to be very careful in this time of Kalyug where you are surrounded by very few well-wishers. Practice this remedy on the night of Amavasya. Take a black thread and tie seven knots at equivalent distance on it. Rotate seven dried red chillies seven times over the thread and wrap them in a black cloth. Burn the cloth outside your home or building after putting some oil on it and wear that black thread on your right ankle. I also advise you to donate seven black clothes to different unprinted people on the night of Amavasya. I suggest you not to consume alcohol as people consuming it are more vulnerable to negative energies. I suggest you rotate salt seven times over the victim anticlockwise and dissolve it in any water body. If you think you are being attracted to something negative, and your aura is slightly different from usual, you should burn camphor every morning and evening in your house. Take black rai, tulsi leaves, mint leaves, lemon's peel, til seeds and nilgiri oil or nilgiri leaves and boil it in water for seven minutes and divide it in seven portions and pour each portion over your body. And do it for seven consecutive days. As per my knowledge, you are more susceptible to negative energies if your Rahu or Ketu comes in close conjunction with Sun and Moon and hence you should consult an experienced astrologer to find solutions for these transitions of planet. Also, I advise you to chant 'Om Ram Rahave Namah' and 'Om Kem Ketave Namah' to keep Rahu and Ketu within good influence. There are certain poojas I would suggest you perform at home if you think you are under the influence of the evil eye. Chaandi Paath, Kaal Bhairav puja and Durga Saptashi pooja are highly recommended. I would also recommend you to keep 'Bhairav Yantra’ in your home to strengthen your aura because your aura is a shield which can protect you from negative energies. Last, if you find extreme symptoms like bruises on your body, itching, burning and stinging pains on different parts of body, your body not responding to medicines for your sickness, suicidal thoughts and shortage of breathing, I would strictly advise you take considerable action and make very sure to visit an astrologer and find reasons and solutions.
