Have you ever felt that every time you reveal your plans or share your achievements with certain people, you attract only negativity? Well, it is because of the evil eye, which may feel like an obscure thing, but according to ancient beliefs, the evil eye is real, and can lead to sudden loss, failure, conflict, or unexplained illness. Here’s what you need to know about this defect.
Why does this happen
According to ancient beliefs, there are times when we often attract negativity and become victims of the evil eye (Nazar Dosha), which affects all areas of health, growth and progress. This is usually due to their weak aura, which can affect the life force by manifesting as unexplained fever and headache and can also make them irritable and weak. Here’s how you can avoid the effects of the evil eye.
How does it affect?
The evil eye or “nazar” occurs when jealousy or bad emotions generate negative energy, causing bad luck, fatigue or setbacks. Here are some practical suggestions, rooted in Vedic and traditional treatments, that can create protective barriers to neutralize its effects and restore harmony.
burning red chilli
Another simple remedy to remove evil eyes is to take seven whole dry red chillies, rotate them three times over the child, then burn them outside. Check if the smoke is thick and rises with a strange smell; If so, the glance is removed. It is believed that this fiery remedy neutralizes the malefic planetary position of Rahu, purifies the aura, and balances Pitta Dosha related to digestive problems.
Salt and Mustard Seed Ritual
This simple remedy can be done by taking a pinch of rock salt and yellow mustard and rotating it around the child’s head seven times while chanting “Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya”. Once done, burn both of these things and then flush the remains in running water to absorb the negativity. Repeat this process weekly on Saturdays to preserve the aura for a long time.
kajal black dot
Have you ever wondered why some babies have a small dot of kajal applied behind their ear or on the corner of their forehead? You can use Surma stick chanted from Hanuman Chalisa. Doing this often removes jealousy and drives away the evil eye, negativity, sudden accidents and illness. This remedy is in harmony with the nurturing energy of the Moon for strong immunity.
coconut top
This age-old method of warding off the evil eye is to rotate a whole coconut seven times around the child and then break it at a crossroads or a river. The sattvic essence of coconut removes the doshas and corrects vibrations and restores vitality. It is advised to perform this remedy on Tuesday and sprinkle it with Ganga water for overall cleansing.
black thread
Another popular remedy is to tie a black woolen thread around the ankle or wrist, knotting it three times while chanting “Om Ram Rahuve Namah”. This thread is like an amulet, which is Saturn-friendly and is known to ward off evil vision, prevent recurring fever, cough, fatigue or illness. It is best to purify the thread during Amavasya for lasting protection.
