There is a
saying that goes:
“Whoever chants spells
shall have the right to use the powers of the gods to fulfill his/her desire.”
In order to
tap the power of gods, as with all other magical traditions; there is a set of
rules to follow:
·
You
must choose an appropriate place: clean, quiet and safe to set up an altar
where you can sit undisturbed throughout the spell casting ceremony. And that
the place should be suitable for you to burn oil lamps and burn incense.
·
You
need to choose good timing: for good spells the time is during White Month.
·
You
should choose an appropriate ‘asana’ or sitting position; traditionally, the
lotus posture is the best; but you may sit in any posture but remember to keep
your back straight.
·
The
general direction for spell casting:
o
For
peaceful spells one should face either facing north or east.
o
For
enchantment spells one should face south.
o
For
killing/overpowering spells one should face west.
·
You
will need a japa mala. However, you should not use the right index finger to
turn the mala and that the mother bead should never be crossed after one round
of recitation. It is best to cover the mala with a piece of cloth during mantra
recitation. When not in used, the mala should be wrapped in a piece of clean
cloth.
·
For
a mantra to take effect, the required number of recitations would be 10 million
times.
·
You
should consume only vegetarian food. And also beware of not eating too much or
too less during the spell casting time.
·
So
far as permissible, you should keep silence and avoid talking to a second
person unless necessary.
·
You
are also required to keep celibacy throughout the ritual.
·
You
should be sleeping on the floor.
·
You
must have faith in the spell you are casting.
·
You
must also keep your body and mind clean during and after the spell casting
period.
The above
pointers are just general rules for casting White Vedic spells. The rules vary
from masters to masters and it is best just to follow what is taught by your
own master to avoid confusions.
