Rudraksha
Rudraksha come in different mukhis or the clefts
or furrows on the surface. Shastras speak of 1 to 38 mukhis
but normally 1 to 14 mukhis are used for astrological benefits.
Each bead has a different effect on you, depending on the number
of mukhis it has. Each Rudraksh is very individualistic and
has to be carefully matched with one's horoscope for it to be
beneficial. Rudraksh have tremendous energy and power. Rudraksh
is best known for its biomedical properties and in controlling
stress, hypertension and blood pressure.
The chain of 108 beads or 50 beads if worn
and worshipped , provides all types of benefits. These are
much more powerful and can help achieve wonders, if energized
and empowered the right way. Rudraksh of different mukhis
pleases the corresponding planets. It may be sufficient to
go in for only for those mukhis whose ruling planets, cause
malefic effects.
Vedic Yantras are geometrical figures intended
to represent the basic energies. Just as every elementary geometrical
figure, a straight line, a square, a cross or a triangle etc.,
has a symbolic value corresponding to the basic notions, similarly,
the Yantras symbolise one or the other power or energy.The Vedic
Yantras are designed to remove the afflictions to obtain a particular
result eg. to have a child, to have a positive balance in the
bank, or to have the awareness to control one's temper in order
to enhance one's performance at work etc. The Yantras are inscribed
with the mystical inscriptions of the afflicted beneficial planets
at a particularly auspicious time to suit the individual wearer.The
diagrams such as circles, triangles, squares and even a 'dot'
are used as Yantras. All these represent cosmic energies. A
dot known as bindu in Sanskrit symbolizes all pervading space-the
origin of all that exists.
The yantras shall be seen daily in the morning
and one shall lit incense or lamp before the yantra every
morning. It is auspicious and blesses the native with success
and wealth.
Puja
The malefic planetary conjunctions are the phases
in one's life when one's aura gets darkened. Such a person is
like one groping in the darkness. His thoughts and activities
are misguided. The vibrations radiating from him displease others.
It is possible to reduce the suffering due
to the unfavorable position of planets through sincere reliance
on God, the One who controls the planets. Puja is the act
of showing reverence to a god or another aspect of the divine
through invocations, prayers and rituals. An essential part
of puja for the Hindu devotee is making a spiritual connection
with the divine.
