An EVIL EYE or an EVIL SPELL

On the family:
It can destroy the peace and the harmony of the family for no apparentreason. Generally when no direct
cause is detected, such happenings areattributed to the Evil Eye or an Evil Spell cast on the family. In
common parlance it is called buri nazar, tona or totka etc. What ever be the truth ,an upaya can bring
relief in most cases.Upaya :
{ i }On a Sunday, burn a little kachcha koyala { wood charcoal } along withdried droppings of either a
camel or a deer { Camel dung or deer dung } inan earthen pot. When the charcoal and the camel / deer
droppings get red, sprinkle a few mustard seeds and a little bat droppings over it and carry thesmoking
pot around the house, in every nook and corner. The best place you can collect the bat droppings from
is the deserted old buildings where bats roost during the day. Repeat this process for at least 13
Sundays.
{ ii } Keep at home a small piece of Sita Ashok tree root at the pooja sthan so that a pooja of this piece is
done every day . This piece will protect the family from any evil eye or spell.
On the children :
For all we know the child might be suffering from some illness and a medical help may be required.
Therefore, first contact the doctor. But when no apparent reason is detected it again is attributed to the
evil eye or the evil spell. In the case of young children the evil eye or buri nazar can manifest in various
forms:[A] The most common form is nazar lagana. The women folk in the house easily detect it. Along
with medical treatment, traditionally they have been doing either of these two upaya :
{ i } Take a small piece of alum { }, move it over the child 7 times and throw the alum piece into fire to
burn. Some people even discern the shapeof the person who cast the evil eye on the child in the burning
alum but that may not be correct and should not be done.{ ii } Take a few pieces of sabut namak { whole
salt }, move it over the child 7times and throw the salt pieces into the fire to burn. The same process
could be done with red chilies also.[B] The child doesnt sleep at night and instead keeps crying , along
with medical treatment the following upaya can also be done. :Place under the pillow of the child dry
goat droppings { bakari ki megni } tie din a cloth. Keep it under the pillow till the child starts getting good
sleep.[C] The child doesnt drink milk or vomits it out. Along with the medicaltreatment, the following
upaya can also be done :Either on a Saturday or a Sunday, take a little milk in an earthen bowl{ sakora } ,
move it over the head of the child 7 times and give it to a dog todrink. Repeat the process till the child
starts taking milk normally.[D] The child suddenly startles as if dreamt some thing horrible or
startscrying while asleep , in general gets scared. Once again talk to the doctorand at the same time
either of these two upaya can be done :{ i } Make the child wear round his neck, on a Sunday , a small
iron sword{ half an inch long } in a black thread.{ ii }Place under the pillow of the child a small piece of

alum { fitkari } after reading shri Ram bhakta Hanuman ki jai over the piece 108 times. Let the piece
stay under the pillow till the child stops getting scared at night.
Upaya for all kinds of Bal Arishta
If the following upaya is done regularly, you might not face any of theproblems listed above. Just these
upaya might be all you ever need.
( A ) Either on a Tuesday or a Saturday , take the child to the Hanuman temple. Apply a tilak of sindoor
on the fore head of the child. The sindoor should be taken from the right shoulder of the Hanuman idol.(
B ) It is known as Hanuman Kavach.On a Tuesday get an asht-dhatu kara { bangle }made to the size of
the child's wrist. The kara should not be joined at the ends { bina jor ka kara }.On a Saturday morning
keep it dipped in Ganga Jal for a couple of hours, later the same day take the kara to a Hanuman temple
and place it before Lord Hanuman praying that this kara be the kavach for my child to ward off any ills or
troubles on him. Apply a little Hanuman sindoor, taken from the right arm of Hanuman idol, on the kara.
Make the child wear it the same day{ i.e. Saturday }.Bhooshan Priya
