Title: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: Ratna Shugden on June 12, 2010, 04:37:39 AM
Does anyone here know how to remove curses and negativity from places and objects? If our prayer beads,sadhanas and other ritual objects is being tainted by the touch of those who slander our Spiritual Guides, Deity or Dorje Shugden, is there anyway to cleanse them and restore their purity?

Dear RatnaShugden,

I am busy right now, but I will write here some short methods in a short while.

My aged teacher said it is more than fine to write here because it is already all over the bookshelves of the world and to write with a good motivation.

Well i can't wait for TK's reply on this one, i'm sure it will be well worth the wait.

I would have thought, blowing our Protectors Mantra on the item would be enough though.

I agree - tk's answer on oracles was pretty comprehensive!

I would've thought so too, but I think that it also depends on your samaya with your lama and Protector. If not, any Tom, Dick and Harry could perform exorcisms, remove curses and negativities...then where is the power of the mantra? Yes, the Protector's mantra is the verbal form of his essence but I think when recited by someone with clean samaya and vows, who understands the power of the words, it's more powerful than say...a 2 year old who doesn't see the difference between the mantra and reciting their alphabets.

I will do a short explanation for you and hope it helps.


1. There is the general methods and Tantric methods. The Tantric methods I will not go what is beyond allowed.

You have to identify if you can where the curses or negativites are coming from.


For example if it is a lot of general talk, malicious talk or jealous talk towards you then a Sutra called Miga Tramdo can be recited by you or for you. That is especially for turning back the effects of speech from many that could hurt you. Speech can turn into something physical that interferes with you.

If it is a land god, or regional deity, then there's a short ritual you can do to make offerings to them as friend to friend in the Shugden Kangsol or lama chopa (tsok leftover) that can be extracted.

If you have offended a spirit, you may generate loving compassion or think good thoughts and apologize. Heart Sutra and refuge formula (Namo Guru Bey, Namo Buddhaya, Namo Dharmaya, Namo Sanghaya-no limit-one mala a day or more.) would be powerful antidotes if recited with deep conviction.

None of the recitations or rituals should be done with the intent to harm the land, god, ghost or whatever. It should be done with the altruistic wish for their liberation and planting seeds in the mindstream. Also to purify the karma you have to be able to recieve this type of harm at all.


For curses, spells or black magic that you are confirmed about, depending on the intensity the following pujas can be selected:


Sheningdodo (heart sutra WITH ritual)
Gyabshi (four hundred offerings)
Chasum
Kabardo
Dukkar
Dukkar dondo
Protector Puja
Dukkar Se Sum (Dukkar, Singdogma and Heart Sutra recitation)
Receiving Vajra Yogini or Yamantaka Kakko (short ritual done by lama to block interferences)

The above are just some to name a few. Consult a lama. There are more, but I am giving general ones. They can be done in any Gelug Monastery.


Personal recitations/prayers/mantras/sadhanas for repelling curses, spells and black magic can be any of the below or combination:


Reciting one's guru's personal name mantra
Singdongma Goddess
Ekazati Goddess
One's protector
Vajrapani
Black Manjushri
Hayagriva (Thamthing Samdrup)


If one has the higher annuttara tantric initiations  then:


Yamantaka or Vajra Yogini would be very powerful. To engage in their sadhana and focus on:

Soliciting the Lineage lamas and one's lama during the sadhana very important for the success of practice and dissolving.
Protection wheels
Protection deities/armour in the case of Vajra Yogini
Dissolution and emptiness of all phenomena in either generation or completion stages

Their sadhana/practice should not be engaged in to conquer demons, spirits, black magic, etc, but that would be a side benefit. One should engage in their sadhana with an altruistic motivation wishing to gain great bliss and wisdom (Detong Yermey).

Doing their sadhanas daily will be very powerful and effective protection.


One can also do. But not recommended as you need great skill, good samaya, strong concentration and also have 'accomplished' your deity (yidam):

Do one's meditational deity practice as per the sadhana, then generate the spirit as the deity you are doing, place the spirit as a deity in a pillar, or somthing stable in the house. Bless the pillar to generate it as a divine palace of the deity. Seal the pillar and to the auspicious verses.

Those are the various means I have explained in short and general terms. There are many variations depending on circumstances. The best is to consult a great practitioner, lama or the best one's own lama. You need not take what I have written and start doing it yourself. I have purposely omitted many details as I am sharing knowledge not writing instruction on how to do. I am letting you know in short what is available in short form.


Those with broken samaya/negative intent who 'contaminate' your objects there are a few methods of which any is fine:


Ask a lama to bless
Recite OM AH HUM 108x or more focussing on what you know on Emptiness. Then blow on the object contaminated.
Recite your guru's name mantra any amount, trust your teacher and bless.
Use the consecrated water from a Trusol ritual to wash the objects
Even your protector's mantra recitation focussing on altruism is fine.

Any of the above are fine.


If you are doing any of the Annutara tantric deities, then just before the recitation of their mantras in their sadhanas, they have a section to consecrate the mala. That would be very sufficient. In fact any of these practices/sadhanas will consecrate your environment, the objects within, the beings within and more importantly your mind. So hence everything is purified and blessed.

It is said that wherever there is a pure practitioner of Heruka Chakrasamvara/Vajra Yogini, by reciting their 8 line praises, the Dakas/Dakinis from the 24 holy-power spots will converge to bless the practitioner, the environment and all beings in that space immediately. It becomes a sacred environment to plant the seeds of enlightenment in the minds of those beings and visitors.



I wish you luck and speed in your practice always,

TK

Thank you TK for taking the time to share such a clear and concise information on how we can all protect ourselves and others! You really always add so much value to this forum and website and it really does help people, like me, who are not so scholarly.

I am sure a lot of my friends will really appreciate this information for many are troubled by it but just don't dare to say it or know how to deal with it!

Dear TK,

Thank you for such comprehensive explanation on how to remove curses and negativity.  There are many people out there who are affected by such experiences but do not know what to do or know of a reliable source of help to turn to.  Many of these people more often than not out of desperation resort to consulting mediums who contact worldly gods and spirits that are unenlightened.  In most cases, they do not get their problems solved and sometimes end up in worse situation.

Having these information available online will help many people.  They may not participate in this forum but they may know people who do and lead them to it.  How wonderful many people will find relieve from such suffering.  Thank you again sharing such invaluable information.
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: a friend on June 13, 2010, 09:32:04 PM

Dear TK,

Wosel Tenzin is exposing a most important point that has always hurt my heart: many good people end up going to very worldly magicians to solve their problems and they end up involved (even unknowingly) in animal sacrifice and other very unfortunate deeds that will bear terrible fruit for them in the future.

This is another reason, indeed, to thank you from my heart for helping people with your precious information.

By the way, would it be possible to publish (it's ok in Tibetan, we can do a translation) the Sutra that you mention?

Thank you again for your generosity.

I totally agree with many of you that in most Asian countries, witches, wizards and powerful mediums are sought after when people are faced with spirit difficulties and hardship pertaining to karma. Come to think of it, there has always been a demon-at-large with such dabblings whether in public or underground.

I know this for a fact in my trips to Bangkok whereby Buddhist teachings are mixed with local belief and magic which will 'appease' the minds of people and spirits abiding there. Even in commercialized countries such as Singapore, there are many stories of the local folk using black magic in order to secure a business or to make another business fall.

It is sad that even though Buddhism has entered these countries, such shamanistic practices are still prevaillant.

From TK's brief but concise explanation to what can be done, I am very relieved to know that there's a way out of this and it should be promoted by all of us Shugdenites in order to cause the teachings of Lama Je Tsongkhapa to flourish. It will help our minds and at the same time it will help people inflicted by these spirits, curses and harm.

I know for sure Shar Gaden and Serpom monasteries does such pujas and rituals for people. TK, if there's a channel for us to refer to the monastery regarding this, would u please share on who we can consult in the event there's no high lama around and how can we go about doing the pujas in the monasteries?

I also thought for a second if there is a possibility that Protector Dorje Shugden can be the central figure in all these and I am sure our daily protector practice can help avert such things from happening against us right?

please shed light.

thanks

I agree with you harrynephew. Many people in Southeast Asia where I am based are often faced with these problems, and sadly, this is one of the reason why Tibetan Lamas are highly "sought after", apart from Thai monks, as they are known to be very effacacious in helping to remove black magic and curses. But I guess it's also a very good way for people to connect with Dharma after their encounter.

In my experience with my fellow practitioners, we're usually advised to do White Umbrella or Singdongma, which I have heard were very effective.

Thank you TK for sharing this and sharing with us the many practices that we can do.

Black Manjushri mantra is also highly effective in removing curse and living corpses. Lion Face Dakini can re bonce the curses back to the caster, but do not chant more than 14 times.
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: Ratna Shugden on June 17, 2010, 08:51:46 AM
It might not be fair to label all witches, wizards and powerful mediums as cheats. They are sentient beings who may not have the karma to practice the Buddha Dharma exactly like mainstream Buddhist, but they can still cherish a desire to help sentient beings with whatever knowledge or powers that they may possess. The same can be said of the worldly spirits whom they invoke in their rituals.

They are all sentient beings like us who are trying to earn merit to the best of their abilities. Worldly spirits need to help others to accumulate merit in order to be reborn on a higher plane of existence, such as having a precious human life to practice the Dharma.

There are also some of them who are followers of Mahayana Buddhism or may have even received Vajrayana Empowerment from recognized masters, and they do use the attainments which they received from this practice in their day to day service to sentient beings who are facing problems.

They may not have the qualifications and skills of high Lamas, but their desire to help others is still praise
worthy.

Every skill or ability can be misused to do harm to sentient beings as long as the intention of the user is evil, this applies to everything else in life.

Just trying to see the good side of every sentient being, even though they may be very far from the blessing of Je Tsongkhapa and Dorje Shugden. I pray that they will all one day become Gelugpas!

Although we can sent back the effects of the spells cast upon us back to the caster, it does not put an end to the enmity that exist. It is better to find out why people want to treat us they way they do and try to resolve things peacefully in the long-run.

Until we have a clear picture of who is attacking us and reasons behind it, it is better to just neutralize their attacks and protect ourselves from further harm, rather than think of counter-attacking immediately.

Here has a question, if we dun have a guru/lama now there are so many pujas that TK mentions so what if i don't have any guru/lama, how do i know which puja is suitable for me to practice ???

Please advise, thank you. ;)
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: a friend on July 01, 2010, 11:17:03 PM

Double Dorje, our monasteries can perform pujas for you.
The ideal is to ask a Lama which pujas to perform and then request Serpom or Shar Ganden to do them for you.

Otherwise if you write to them directly (don't forget they have websites and Facebook, from any of them you can contact them) and ask them which pujas to perform. Most probably they are going to tell you, in which case you have to provide the necessary for the offerings. Just talk to them.

Black Manjushri mantra is also highly effective in removing curse and living corpses. Lion Face Dakini can re bonce the curses back to the caster, but do not chant more than 14 times.

As Buddhists, i don't think we should 'bounce' curses back to people. If someone sent a curse to us, his or her karma will ripen - and that fact should make us feel compassion for them because they will suffer. If we send curses back to harm the people who are harming us, the cycle will never end. We will get the karma of harming others, whether they deserve it or not, and we will suffer.

If we receive a curse, we must have created the cause for it. When we realise that, there is no one to blame but ourselves. Of course we should not blindly let others hurt us and think that it's our karma to receive the hurt. But i believe that the correct way to protect ourselves from our own karma is to quickly purify it - from practices given by our Gurus, our Dharma Protector practice, keeping good samaya with our Guru, doing our Dharma work well and benefiting others.

I understand by you mean but I am explaining what certain mantras can do and block like a shield. These mantras can protect the users from black magicians who harm us intentionally. i am sure no one would be foolish enough to be a"sitting duck" waiting for harm to come upon them, If the person does not cast any malicious spells at all, it won't bonce back to the caster. A knife has many purposes but it depends on the user's application and motivation.

Once there is a kid mentioned that the fish has created a cause to be fish by him due to the fish's past karma.

i think that most mantras will protect - after all, mantras are the enlightened energy of the Buddhas as sound. i personally think that Dorje Shugden's mantra is most appropriate because he is the Dharma Protector for me (and most people who visit this site). Dorje Shugden's mantra won't bounce the black magic onto the caster - the caster's negative karma from sending black magic will bounce back to him, whether we are protected or not. So in the spirit of bodhicitta, we should not hope that the magic will harm the caster but feel compassion for him/her because they will bear the consequences.

Aside from the HYT armour, protection etc which has already been mentioned.....

In dealing with a curse, there is a practice known as the '3 Wrathfuls' (Vajrapani, Hayagriva, Garuda) which is reputed to overcome such harm.  A lama may perform this for you, or seek an empowerment.  I believe the FPMT use this sadhana.

Alternatively, the ultimate protection is Compassion.  If you are able to feel compassion for the beings involved in seeking to harm you, the mind becomes far too strong to be successfully attacked. Think in terms of taking and giving practice as well, if you are familiar with that. ;)

Thanks TK for sharing with us the remedies to afflictions which normal medicine or treatment have no effect.

I know of a few friends who had asked for info regarding spirit possession and black magic. I will certainly post to them your article and instructions on what best to do.

I have personal experience of a fellow Dharma brother who had been possessed by spirits. The family tried all sorts of treatment for him - bomohs, mediums  etc  but all did not work. Sadly, he is now in a mental institution. Hopefully the info which  I’m going to pass to them may help.

Post by: jessicajameson on August 01, 2010, 01:00:16 AM
I agree with what WisdomBeing said, that we shouldn't bounce back any spells or curses that has been inflicted upon us.

I remember reading that Tulku Dragpa Gyeltsen (not sure if it's the right lineage lama, that this occurred to - do correct me if I'm wrong) was traveling with his entourage from one area to another. When they arrived at their destination, Tulku Dragpa Gyelten (TDG) went into his tent and asked everyone not to enter. From the outside of his tent, his students and followers could see bolts of lightning hitting the tent continuously, and when TDG walked out, he passed a box to one of his students and asked him to throw it away as far as possible. When his student threw it, the box landed and there was a huge explosion from all the energy from the lightening.

From TDG actions and practice, I think that it goes to show that Dorje Shugden's prayer would not bounce back any curses or black magic, but instead absorbed and removed.

That's my take of the story anyways.
_______________________________________________________________________________________

Going back to what TK explained, I have a question: If you feel like there was something (spirit or the like) disturbing you and you immediately visualize your Guru in your mind whilst reciting your Guru's mantra, if that doesn't repel the spirit away - does that mean that your samaya is not clean?

Thank you very much TK for the precious info provided. I've seen how my relative's friend being 'disturbed' by spirits and she was at wits end and doesn't know what to do. They have gone to many mediums yet no positive results was ever achieved.

Now, armed with this info, i can inform my relative for her friend to do and their family can have peace of mind.

Thank you very much once again, TK!

You may want to seek for professional help from renowned Lamas, sometimes it could be the karmic debtors come knocking on the door, which could be harder to deal with.

I totally agree with many of you that in most Asian countries, witches, wizards and powerful mediums are sought after when people are faced with spirit difficulties and hardship pertaining to karma. Come to think of it, there has always been a demon-at-large with such dabblings whether in public or underground.

I know this for a fact in my trips to Bangkok whereby Buddhist teachings are mixed with local belief and magic which will 'appease' the minds of people and spirits abiding there. Even in commercialized countries such as Singapore, there are many stories of the local folk using black magic in order to secure a business or to make another business fall.

It is sad that even though Buddhism has entered these countries, such shamanistic practices are still prevaillant.

From TK's brief but concise explanation to what can be done, I am very relieved to know that there's a way out of this and it should be promoted by all of us Shugdenites in order to cause the teachings of Lama Je Tsongkhapa to flourish. It will help our minds and at the same time it will help people inflicted by these spirits, curses and harm.

I know for sure Shar Gaden and Serpom monasteries does such pujas and rituals for people. TK, if there's a channel for us to refer to the monastery regarding this, would u please share on who we can consult in the event there's no high lama around and how can we go about doing the pujas in the monasteries?

I also thought for a second if there is a possibility that Protector Dorje Shugden can be the central figure in all these and I am sure our daily protector practice can help avert such things from happening against us right?

please shed light.

thanks

It is true that there are many lower level deities which are unenlightened that can cause more harm than good. But at the end of it, it is the motivation that drives the direction. I have friends who go all the way to Bangkok to dispel the black magic they have contracted (if that could be the right term). They were "cured" but they had to perform some rituals which baffled me. Plus, they had to return to the "healer" annually to make offerings, failure to do so the black magic will reverse and return with double damage. I did not comment, but from this I thought it felt like bondage or blackmail. I kept my comment to myself as it would not have helped my friends as they were happy to be doing this annual "commitment". I guess it's different spice for different folks. The irony of Bangkok is that many also go there to perform black magic onto others... I guess the cure is where the poison is.

I do not mean any offense about Bangkok, I have gone several times myself for vacation and loved it!

I have a question, why is it no one mentioned to pray to Trakze, the wrathful emanation of Dorje Shugden? I read in the Starter Kit of this website that Trakze is powerful against black magic and dangerous situations? 
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: honeydakini on August 04, 2010, 10:18:58 AM
Yes, definitely trakze is known for clearing many very difficult, harmful obstacles that cannot be cleared by other methods. I personally do not know what his practice would entail or what his mantra is – I believe that we would need to get permission and some level of transmission from our Lamas to be able to do this practice. However, in the meantime, I am certain we can still keep an image of him on our altar, make offering and pray to him sincerely from our heart for his help.

Actually, we can just do our usual prayers, serkym offerings and mantras to Dorje Shugden, think strongly that whatever obstacles we are facing is cleared by his compassion. I believe we can do this (or the practice of any aspect of DS that we usually do), with an image of Trakze on our altar. They are one the same, after all.

Yes, going to witch doctors or resorting to methods like voodoo, black magic, spells etc are not encouraged because of the potential harm that they can bring onto the person. By relying on methods like this, we cannot be sure who we are really asking for help. If this being is no enlightened, and still subject to the same kind of delusions – anger, hatred, ignorance, pride – then it can be very dangerous for us. They can extract revenge on us, or want something else in exchange, or harm us later on if we don’t fulfil our promises to them.

Another danger of these methods is that we open a portal to a lot of other things – any being can then “enter” to cause disturbances or problems to our lives and practice.

It is definitely much safer to rely on enlightened beings, who we know will never hurt us in any way and that everything that they do for us is entirely out of compassion and for our benefit. At the same time, we make a strong connection to the Three Jewels, which benefits us and our spiritual path in the long term.

I think it goes back to people wanting the easy way out, and wanting success without working for it. So it goes back down to the intrinsic character of the person - if you have the qualities to be a success, you wouldn't need to rely on beings who have the same kind of delusions as us. And if you have the right motivation to be a success, that would surely give you enough drive to achieve such successes on your own merit.

Plus, surely in using them and the 'powers' of their rebirth, we also help them create more karma for themselves, to continue taking rebirths in the lower realms.

Thank You everyone for sharing so many methods to remove curses and negativities.

I think a practitioner who practise purely and sincerely the Dharma with a mind of bodhichitta, could dedicate the merits gained to the elimination of all forms of sufferings caused by curses and negativities.  And pray that those sentient beings who gave rise to these sufferings will stop doing so through these merits. 
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: WisdomBeing on January 12, 2011, 07:32:10 AM
I agree with what WisdomBeing said, that we shouldn't bounce back any spells or curses that has been inflicted upon us.

I remember reading that Tulku Dragpa Gyeltsen (not sure if it's the right lineage lama, that this occurred to - do correct me if I'm wrong) was traveling with his entourage from one area to another. When they arrived at their destination, Tulku Dragpa Gyelten (TDG) went into his tent and asked everyone not to enter. From the outside of his tent, his students and followers could see bolts of lightning hitting the tent continuously, and when TDG walked out, he passed a box to one of his students and asked him to throw it away as far as possible. When his student threw it, the box landed and there was a huge explosion from all the energy from the lightening.

From TDG actions and practice, I think that it goes to show that Dorje Shugden's prayer would not bounce back any curses or black magic, but instead absorbed and removed.

That's my take of the story anyways.



Was just reading back the old posts and wanted to clarify that it was Pabongkha, not TDG who was the person in the story above (http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?p=3965).

Dondrup - yes it is true that if a practitioner practises pure Dharma with a mind of Bodhicitta, he/she can eliminate these sufferings. However, it is very rare that a practitioner is at the level of being able to practise sincerely, let alone with Bodhicitta unless you are an attained being such as a tulku.

That is why it is always recommended that we seek a qualified Guru if we do not yet have one so that we have the right guidance because we do not have the attainments *yet* :)

Dear Blacksmith

Welcome to this forum. You can find Dorje Shugden's prayers here http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?p=4402 (http://dorjeshugden.com/wp/?p=4402)
It is not long at all. Dorje Shugden have helped many. He is the wrathful form of Lord Manjushri, an enlightened Buddha. At such, you can have full confidence in his blessings and power to assist you.

Wishing you all the best

A few years back, I was going through a really tough patch in my life. I have experienced many highs and many lows, but this was really something. I was having trouble at work, with friends, with family, with investments, basically in everything. I tried everything in my wits to sort it out but it just got worse until I eventually consulted a medium/bomoh/voodoo artist, this medium was highly regarded for his supernatural abilities. This was a big step to me, I never really believed in the super natural. Anyhow, the medium told me that I had be hexed and he also described the problems i was facing. Being desperate, I did everything he prescribed. Things got better for a while and again started to deteriorate. This time for the worse, I was in a even bigger pile of dump. Having no remedy, I again looked for the medium. He gave me another set of things to do and i did it. Again, things got better for a while and eventually got worse. At this point in time, I thought to myself that things aren't working out and I am going in circles.

It was then that I met Lord Dorje Shugden. His image was on my mother's altar and I have never noticed it there before ( I never had the habit of praying). Losing faith in the medium, I decided to take refuge in the Buddhas instead. I found some Dorje Shugden sadhanas from the net and decided to do the practice. In the matter of months, things got significantly better. My problems were slowly going away. It took a longer period compared to the methods of the medium, but the results were more consistent and most importantly, i was feeling happier. In time, I found a dharma center where i could do some dharma work. With my problems subsiding (but not completely gone), I had the opportunity to do some dharma work. Surprisingly, this brought me much joy and I started to get more involved in my dharma center. Today, I would consider my problems completely gone and I have the opportunity to start again. But the good thing is, I got the dharma with me this time.

I may not know much dharma text, but I am very certain that if we have faith in the protector and we are able to take that leap of faith, the protector will help us. I do not mean by having faith of his existence, that may be a lot to ask at the start, but to have faith in the teachings. Practicing the buddhas teachings is the best way to ward of black magic and spirit harm. I see the protector as a buddha that guides us to a better way of life. For me, that protector is Dorje Shugden.

I hope my sharing is of benefit to you guys.  ;D

Hi Shugdentruth,

I see you are new. Welcome to the site and Forum.

Hope that you find it useful and beneficial as I have. I just wanted to thank you for sharing your story. I am sure it was a troubling time that you went through. I am just unfamiliar with a term that you used in your post. What's bomoh? Is it a thing or a person or something completely different? You put three words in one sentence - medium/bomoh/voodoo. I know voodoo and medium. But not familiar with bomoh. If it's not too much trouble, would appreciate your explanation.

I appreciate Dorje Shugden immensely. He has helped me through the most difficult times in my life. So, I do understand what you mean when you shared that the results took longer but you are happier.

I wish you the best of luck. And thanks again for sharing. It is always very lovely to hear about how Dorje Shugden has helped so many. It makes the allegations against Dorje Shugden look so ridiculous.

Dear Helena,

Yes I am new, in fact, its the first time I am posting on any of the Dorje Shugden sites. I found this site to be very interesting. Most sites frequently talk of politics which I am not too interested in. Perhaps its because I am not a Tibetan and I am very new to buddhism.

Bomoh is a term they use for mediums in east asia where black magic is believed to happen frequently. I have read a little bit here and there about these sort of things. Being tangled up with it made me do some research on the internet. The bomoh practice from what i read originated from the forests of east asia, these practitioners are able to communicate and deal with spirits in the forest. In Hong Kong, some say feng sui sifus can hex people and has foresight as well. Feng sui sifus are people who understands the energies of the elements in our universe. They use this knowledge to channel good luck to their clients. But from where i come from, there aren't many choices. All i could find was a medium. He wasn't of much help. Its not he wasn't any good. But perhaps it was fate i met Lord Dorje Shugden and the dharma.

Thanks for the sharing Shugdentruth. Perhaps one day, I will have the opportunity to visit east asia.

I have a few friends in east asia and they have shared their experiences, growing up being exposed to mediums. I may be over generalizing it, but my impression is that the culture is infused with such supernatural activities. Mediums are consulted for financial, health and relationship problems.

I do pray that Dorje Shugden's practice will take root in these countries. It would not take much for people there to have faith and rely on Dorje Shugden.

Just like what Shugdentruth have experienced, people will not feel that they are going in circles but receives help from an enlightened Buddha.

Welcome to the forum. I enjoyed reading your sharing, and it has inspired me to share mine. I have lived my home for more than 45 years. It belonged to my father, and his father before him. It has been the only home I know, and my place of refuge and solace, up till about 8 years ago. Gradually, over time, the energy of my house began to change. I started to feel edgy, cold, and the hairs on the back of my neck would rise. My dog (i have an incorrigible beagle) would sit facing odd corners of the room and stare. The candles I lit on my altar started going out  for no apparent reason and from time to time, a sweet smell seemed to travel from room to room. My family members also started falling ill, and my niece started to have fainting spells.

I was at a loss, and a friend of mine from another dharma center introduced me to Dorje Shugden. I was given some blessed rice, and told to burn it with some incense, and to ensure the smoke permeated my home. I was also told to chant his mantra. I was doubtful how effective a small grain of rice would be, and with much misgivings i set a few grains alight on a bed of smoldering incense. I walking thru my home, including the attic and the basement, and after i had covered all corners of the house, I sat in my bed, wondering what difference it had made. Everything felt the same and I went to sleep, thinking that it had been a waste of time.

The next few days passed, and after about a week, I realised that the frequency of candles going out on my altar had started to reduce. My family's health improved. and my house no longer felt like the dark hole it was starting to be. Things started getting better, gradually, and I continued to chant the mantra daily. I was not a believer then, but looking back, the little grain of rice was the turning point for me and my family.

I will always be grateful to dorje shugden, and if anyone is experiencing similar problems, you could try this method. It worked for me.

Hi Thor,

Thank you for your sharing. I can really relate to your story, I was having problems with light bulbs blowing whenever I switch the light switches.

Perhaps it was my negative karma coming back. The protector really came just at the right time and I had enough merits to have the chance for him to help me. Now when I look back, I am not happy about the bad situation I was in, but I am somewhat glad it happened because it was an opportunity for me to learn from and more importantly for me to meet the dharma. The whole scenario has changed the way I look at life and the motivations behind my actions. I pretty much operate the same way, but with a new motivation that is more selfless, the results are so different and much more fulfilling. I believe if I have faith in the Protector and practice the dharmic way of life, it is a sure way to allow the protector to help me from my negative karma. The protectors will help all sentient being only if we allow them to.

So..... was my negativity my positivity or was my positivity my negativity?? haha.
I heard this 'when s**t happens' joke that was really funny and it made sense to me. It goes like this.....

Buddhism: when s**t happens, is it really shit?  :o
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: dharmabrother on June 07, 2011, 09:24:25 PM
Hi all..
I will share my story as well, with a thought provoking question.. why do spirits and sentient beings feel the need to curse and bring damnation to those they despise?

Funny reference made to buddhism

shugdentruth.. I had the same thing going on too.. a sweet smell in my house.. And trouble would start..consequently,
 My father got sick and almost deathly ill he fell off a ladder, and got sick.. but the good news is he recovered.. I couldnt and still cannot find a job. and i argue with my friends and girlfriend a lot when it happened. and it seemed what ever was cursing me want me to become physically ugly inside and out.. Not to ever brag, but i do get a lot of attention from the opposite sex.. Once that sweet smell and the dead birds were found every morning on the front porch.. I began to get less, and less attention from the opposite sex.. Everyone thought I lost charisma, and many people gossipped and said harsh things.. I began to put on much weight, like 75 pounds heavier, and the aura of gold and purple and white was leaving me for good... According to my girlfriend.
I went to a voodoo practicioner who was into Palo, Mayombe, and Vodoo. He said, my ex girlfriend, Jami, cursed me with a karmic curse, "the law of karma." in his exact words.  this was in 2006.  he said he would fix it for $500 dollars.. i said, "youre a rip off" and I left..

Next, I joined the Ordo Templi Orientis... That was very strange.. And they followed a man who was Aleister Crowley, but when i did magick, it didnt work.. The masters at the oto told me, that I didnt develop my senses.. So i tried. but still nothing worked.. So I went on to voodoo to see where my curses is coming from and to stop them and "get revenge."
I wanted to study voodoo to become a powerful houngan, SO i sought out a man in New York, Brooklyn, who was renouned for his voodoo magic. So he said Bring 400 dollars and Ill help you get what you desire.. He gave me a veve (sigil) and said call upon this, and cal it "the spirit of the veve." and I was short 10 Dollars with him.. he said dont worry about it. Well This veve didnt work.. I said i wanted my $390 dollars back.. he said.. "how dare you come at me like this.. Go to the graveyard.. Dig yourself a hole and put the 10 dollars into the hole.. I'll receive it.. If you do not do this.. than I will bring calamity upon you and your people and whoever you care about."  I laughed at him and said.. "mail me a check for $390 dollars, or I'll dig the hole in the graveyard with you in it." I was very angry in those days.. full of hatred because you see, the curses were happening and they were worsening, as with the person who lived in east asia who seeked out a black magick sifu, my problems were getting worse by the minute.  Already over 300 pounds in weight, and my blood pressure was sky high, and my health was worsening.. and Constant bickering from family.. Oh i do NOT ever want to relive those days again.  It was hell.

 One time, a year and a half ago, We heard a voice say Dadda, dadda. The sweet smell came. but our child was gone to her grandmas, .. but it was her voice.  It angers me that Spirits or sentient beings would want to try to curse us.. I dont want to harm anybody.. Why would they want to harm me?  Where do you think the sweet smell came from?

In my experience of spirituality, there are 4 things that give the HIGHEST results to attain spiritual enlightment and spiritual conversation and knowledge

The best form of spirituality is 4 things..

1. Tibetan Buddhism
2. Direct Magick
3. Shamanism
4. Judaism/Kabbalah

More Recently, I've found Tibetan Buddhism, And my first deity I wanted to contact is Dorje Shugden.. He appealed to me the most out of all the deities of Tibetan Buddhism, because he gets no justice, but yet he is so helpful of many.. And I see that he is fond of me and all those who are here.. Im noticing that im getting along with family much more.. Im able to see why my problems are what they are.. and Im more "aware" now of everything.. and People still gossip, and are jealous.. Because of the town I live in..


One question for TK, All those practices you mentioned especially about removing curses.. Where can I find all those practices.. I googled some of them and I cannot find them?

But Im glad I found Dorje Shugden and Buddhism.. And all the lineages and things you can become.. it's a beautiful and wonderful tradition that can fulfill your ever desires.. Spiritually and Materially!!

Being a man of science,  I did not really believe in black magic , curses and  the supernatural. However , my personal witnessing of some of my friends and relatives whose abnormal behaviour could not be explained by doctors and science made it difficult to ignore the existence of such ' dark' powers.Being a Buddhist now and understanding the different planes of existence and how there are so many different kind of unseen energy and forces affectingour body and mind, I no longer treat them lightly.
Thanks to TK's instructions here, we can all use it to help our friends who may have such  afflictions, if nothing else work for them.

I was at a loss, and a friend of mine from another dharma center introduced me to Dorje Shugden. I was given some blessed rice, and told to burn it with some incense, and to ensure the smoke permeated my home. I was also told to chant his mantra. I was doubtful how effective a small grain of rice would be, and with much misgivings i set a few grains alight on a bed of smoldering incense. I walking thru my home, including the attic and the basement, and after i had covered all corners of the house, I sat in my bed, wondering what difference it had made. Everything felt the same and I went to sleep, thinking that it had been a waste of time.

The next few days passed, and after about a week, I realised that the frequency of candles going out on my altar had started to reduce. My family's health improved. and my house no longer felt like the dark hole it was starting to be. Things started getting better, gradually, and I continued to chant the mantra daily. I was not a believer then, but looking back, the little grain of rice was the turning point for me and my family.

I will always be grateful to dorje shugden, and if anyone is experiencing similar problems, you could try this method. It worked for me.

Thank you for sharing.
I have friends told me similar happenings of what Thor has experienced.  Be it black magic or spirits.  Many remedies are sought after  to overcome them.  Yet there are some could not be solved.  Hmm...how can one obtain this blessed rice which I would like to recommend to my friends to burn?

Dear TK,

Thank you for such a concise explanation written with so much care. It came in very timely as I have a friend who suspects that he has been affected by black magic from a jealous colleague. I have copy and paste your advice and emailed to him. Black magic seems more prevalent in where he lives in South East Asia as compared to where I live.

Being a man of science,  I did not really believe in black magic , curses and  the supernatural. However , my personal witnessing of some of my friends and relatives whose abnormal behaviour could not be explained by doctors and science made it difficult to ignore the existence of such ' dark' powers.Being a Buddhist now and understanding the different planes of existence and how there are so many different kind of unseen energy and forces affectingour body and mind, I no longer treat them lightly.
Thanks to TK's instructions here, we can all use it to help our friends who may have such  afflictions, if nothing else work for them.

It is very common for people at large to ask for blessings, be it from an almighty God, from the celestial guardians and masters, angels, spirits and any other entities... If people can so easily believe in blessings which is associated to positive energy, then logically the dark, negative energy must be present/exist also. If we can bless each other, then surely we will have it in us to curse also.

I suppose science can in someways measure these energies with the use of modern technology in this day and age.

I've always been interested and enchanted by this topic. I only had 2 encounters of negativities. A friend of mine had black magic on his sister. She would have very high fever and she would see many spirits disturbing her. Even the doctors couldn't explain her erratic change in body temperature. Another friend would be possessed by spirits. He went to many local shaman gurus to remove the spirits but it didn't work. We were all very helpless.

I know that all these supernatural things exist. It's very helpful that TK shared with us the precious info on solving them. Is there a way that we can promote it so that more people can have access to this precious info?

Thank you for sharing those precious teaching to us. It not only can help us far away from spirit, black magic, negative energy, the teaching TK post out also a lesson for us how to practice a more compassion person in our daily life. TK is very good, the post he was posted out not only the effective method to teach us dispel from spirt, black magic, negative energy and so forth, also remind us not to harm the "thing" which disturb us.

When you went to seek for help in non-religion method, normally they will destroy or "killed" the thing which disturb you.

But in Buddhism point of view, TK teach used compassion way to help ourself and also the "thing" which disturb us. I think this is a good way to go along. The reason is very simple, the Buddha teaching always showed us how to show respect and care to all sentient beings included spirit and even people who harm us. As a normally selfish person, i really don't think about this point, after I had read through this post I really open my view more widely. Thank you always.

Thank you happysun for the last post as this makes this topic pop up to the top of the list. This topic is really interesting and useful and thank TK for this very useful answer. TK, you really know your stuff.
For me, I am fortunate enough to have a Guru that I can ask if there are such needs.

 However, on a daily basis, I do my sadhana of the Yidam and protector with good motivations. As per TK's advise, it is best to do all that is recommended with good motivations to ie boddhicitta, to bless the environment and our friends, enemy etc. For me this provide the best defense against any black magic, spirits etc.

The advise and formula is very useful however for people that we know or come across that is not as fortunate as us who re able to get a daily dose of protection.

I usually heard about dealing with Spirit is through chasing them away or 'harm' the spirits in return. However, from TK's sharing, it is so compassionate i.e. dispelling the spirit but yet still respecting them.

How wonderful! TK explained it so well. All these while, I thought only DS, Setrab, Sindonma and Dukkar can help in removing curses and negativities. Thank RS for the questions. I have a few friends who had the karma to receive curses either from their ex partner or business rivals. I just show them this website and ask them to read through and of coz guide them to do the prayers. Some do it but some just take it for granted hence their problems continue. I pray that they can be connected again soon so they can be protected.

Thank you TK for the explanation,
I have a friend who will continuously to have the same dream over and over again for few days in a row, recently while having a nap she dreamt of the spirit in a form of an old lady sitting down on a chair looking at her at the same spot when she fell asleep. Then she tries to get up and go to the room, but was struggling...finally she managed to get to the door. Once she touches the knob there's hair coming out from the knob and starts grabbing her hand...

Then later that night, she had a similar dream as it was a continual version of the earlier dream. She dreamt of hairs coming out from her mouth and hundred or thousands of nails coming out thru her entire body. Luckily there's no real life physical injury involve. 

So i told her to chant Setrap Mantra whenever she can and so far so good. Told her it could be her karma hence this is happening and practise compassion and pray for the spirits as well.

Dear TK,
Thank you for your detailed explanations on how one can remove curses and negativity. Even in this modern time and era, there are still people using black magic and the likes. It really makes one believe there really exist other beings among us which we can't see with our eyes. I have heard from my friend who is using the service of a medium to 'clean' his house. And there is a long waiting list to his service. After reading your forum, I realised we should not chase away spirits. Instead we should have compassion and make prayers for them.
I have a blessed rosary from a High Lama. If someone with a broken samaya/negative intent touches it, will the rosary lose its power? I have read that blessed rosary beads are very powerful to keep spirits from disturbing. Does that mean I should not loan my rosary beads to others because I would not know if the person has a broken samaya or not?

Thank you TK, for educating us on effective methods on how to lessen negative disturbances and black magic that we karmically have to experience. It is sad that people still use black magic to "get back" at other people, because they have run out of ideas how to harm/control the other party. But lucky for us, with everything there is a solution, and in this case, the solution = powerful pujas and mantra recitations. The enlightened speeh of the Buddhas in the form of sound energy. Like what's been said, the best antidote is not to counter it with hatred or anger, but to avert it, and send the correct energy directly opposing anger/hatred - i.e. loving kindness, compassion.

I've heard the most powerful black magic comes from a mountain.. I don't remember the name. Anyone knows? But I know that black magic is very common in South East Asia. I have a friend I met whilst in the States, she's from Indonesia, and her dad was killed by black magic. Apparently when he died, alot of needles and pins were found in his body...Can you imagine.. How can someone send black magic to someone else and pins start growing in them?? Bizarre, but true!

Thanks Ratna Shugden for that interesting link... I like the information. It makes us think and remember the very basic and fundimental like so... Anyway if we don't have the karma to receive black magic... it defintely will not happened to us but here's how to identify it if it happens...

Lord Buddha never taught any magic or methods to harm others. So, if you come across a so called a monk or a Buddhist casting magic on others, chances are it is not a real monk or Buddhist. Buddhist scriptures have no methods to harm others. Everything Lord Buddha taught was strictly to benefit. If we practice magic to fulfill our temporal wishes, it will definitely have backlashes and repercussions. So we may fulfill our immediate problems but it will only invite more problems later.

Some signs that someone has been charmed are:

To: Ratna Shugden This is a very good Question. More fabulous, thanks TK for the detail yet simple methods to solve these problems. From the answers, the methods are very Dharmic.
Normally when we faced spirit disturbance, the first thing in mind are- "scared, do everything to get rid of it". But, in TK answer "If you have offended a spirit, you may generate loving compassion or think good thoughts and apologize. " to me is something fresh and amazing, generate love to the being. It is very true that, sometimes the spirits are offended by us, but because of our ignorance and selfishness, we choose to think that we are the "owner" and thus finding anyway to vanish the beings. Buddhism is a religion of true love, the love are so great that Buddha views all beings are equal.

Once again, thanks for the good questions and answers.

Dear blacksmith,

Happiness comes from within - the fact that different people are happy and miserable about the same things show that it's not about the object but our reaction to it. And of course, if you are Buddhist, you would know that everything that happens to us is because of our karma, so if our life has been a certain way, whether good or bad, it is because of our karma so we should accept it but also use each day to create new karma for tomorrow.

The Dharma will bring an end to suffering - that is what the Buddha says. And even the Buddha cannot remove our negative karma, only we ourselves can. So i would suggest you find a Buddhist centre near wherever you are and join some classes. In the meantime, do try Dorje Shugden's prayers which are on this website. http://www.dorjeshugden.com/category/prayers/ (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/category/prayers/) i find it helps bring me peace of mind when i am most in need of it.

Best of luck with it!

I believe that the lama can help you only to certain extend due to your faith and guru devotion, but we will benefit most if we are also playing a part to help ourselves. Thank you all for sharing these valuable information.

The really appreciate your advice but no use to me. To make as many bids and Dorje Shugden invocations if they can not solve a problem of black magic? I think if I were a lama would be very happy to help people who need a thorough purification. In Argentina there are lamas who accept Dorje Shugden. It would be nice to come some of Shar Gaden lama or other similar monasteries, to my country, because it seems that in my country we are forgotten. Even Dorje Shugden site is in English and Chinese, but there are many millions of Spanish-speaking people worldwide. Sorry anyone to help me.

I'm so sorry to hear that, but you could always volunteer to translate the website and its articles to spanish by contacting the administrator of the website. that would be a very good way to purify your negative karma as many spanish speaking people would be able to benefit just by reading it. You could also volunteer to translate at a much smaller scale - the Dorje Shugden comic book and help promote it amongst the Spanish circle. With regards to black magic, I would say that you should get the advice of a Lama on that on how to overcome it. I have read before that black magic can only affect if you have the karma for it...so id say find a qualified lama to help you with that.

May I humbly suggest that you could try contacting losang_tenpa here in this form. he is a western monk currently residing in Shar Ganden. You could request him to help you out in finding a Lama that can assist you. But with that said, it is not only faith alone that you need....from how you describe and talk about yourself, it seems that you have lost all hope in life and if you have, it would be difficult for anyone to help you. You have to keep trying to develop the energy in you.

You can still promote Dorje Shugden without money...you have the internet, you have friends etc. Create the cause to spread his teachings more by spreading him whenever you can, you dont have to wait until the resources come because they will only come when you do something. Sitting there and waiting for a miracle wont help much. I really wish you good luck, but a change has to happen in your mind before it actualises and grows.

He is able to help but if your negative karma is too heavy or if you're not willing to do anything on your part but just want to sit there and wait, i doubt anyone would be able to help you. you're welcome to try other deities, but with your current mindset, I doubt you'll get much help either. Before you say that Dorje Shugden has never helped you, can you tell me if you have done his prayers before? How many malas of his mantra have you done so far? Have you done his kawang? The Buddhas are always willing to help, but if you dont make an effort to open up and receive their help, how? Obviously, if you dont want to make the effort then say that this Buddha or deity does not work for you, it's not fair. I understand that your situation is severe and painful, but it does not really justify the lack of effort.

unless of course, you're in the same situation as this lady who is also affected by black magic, but even then mantras can still be chanted.

Can you describe what sort of symptoms are you experiencing? Many people may think that they are under the influence of witchcraft but it could also be caused by mental problems that the person is not aware of or diseases that remain unchecked. It's important to rule these out because if you're suffering from a delusional state and you insist that you're being affected by witchcraft when you're not, i dont think anything else can help you.

Perhaps the fault of the Chinese government, not really where the shooting took place, but I can only say that there are many people affected by witchcraft and to assist, it only takes a few mantras: I think your intention was good, but consider better than to broadcast a video like the samples, since the real Buddhists do not agree with pagan rituals and animal sacrifices.

 Dear Wisdombeing,

 I agree 100 percent that we do not want any harm to come to the sender; so Dorje Shugden should be able to keep them from being harmed, while protecting us, if that is what we pray for.  We can also do Vajrasattva for them since we obviously have some karma with them, and don't want them to fall into the lower realms.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quote from Wisdombeing
"I think that most mantras will protect - after all, mantras are the enlightened energy of the Buddhas as sound. i personally think that Dorje Shugden's mantra is most appropriate because he is the Dharma Protector for me (and most people who visit this site). Dorje Shugden's mantra won't bounce the black magic onto the caster - the caster's negative karma from sending black magic will bounce back to him, whether we are protected or not. So in the spirit of bodhicitta, we should not hope that the magic will harm the caster but feel compassion for him/her because they will bear the consequences."
Title: Re: Removing curses and negativity
Post by: Blueupali on July 02, 2013, 04:13:11 AM
Also doing the Long Protector Practice of Dorje Shugden would work I think; of course with the intention to protect all living beings, including the person who is sending black magic and negativity; if we are asking Dorje Shugden to protect us, this will improve their karma anyway, since they won't succeed in harming us.  If we think they have that intention, we could do Vajrasattva so that they will eventually generate regret I think, because we don't want them to intend evil toward others.

There are several ways to neutralise an object that has had a curse placed on it. If the curse is weak, a simple purification may be sufficient: immerse the object in a pile of salt or salt-water, expose it to the smoke of incense, or spray it with holy water, the curse will be removed and the object will be purified again.

WOW!  Thank you for sharing this valuable information. This is for people like me who are not so well versed on this.
So much information on this forum. And we can also recite Dorje Shugden mantra which is very powerful too. It does work for me.

Thanks for your advice but I did not help at all: I always heard that the deities are waiting for those who need help: Dorje Shugden surely could not help me or not be able to do, but I will try testing with another of many Tibetan deities that even many unknown. Thank you very much and greetings.

I think dorje shugden really can help. But you have to do his prayers faithfully without breaking daily. I have personally seen the results and can confirm without a doubt. Do his prayers faithfully, do dharma work more, and learn to do strong visualisations, definitely it will work.

Good to see clear, concise advice. For someone not well versed in rituals and mantras, good to see that simple mantras like guru mantra helps. I would like to think that reciting all the mantras need clean samaya, faith & trust in the guru and good motivation with no intention to harm even those with evil intent is very important.

Thank you to TK for such a detailed explanaion to the possible practices one can use to remove the curses and negativities. It is very helpful information to learn up to help those who are faced with such problems.
The only sad thing is that there are some who are born in other religions and are hit with such problems too. They are not allowed or find it difficult or impossible to use the Buddhist methods to help alleviate their problems. In their own religion they can only rely on witch craft or lower deities and often enough the solutions are not completely effective or in some cases more detrimental.

That is very informative sharing by TK, thank you very much. Such information is precious for every one of us. Every issue has a solution to it, and TK explanation on every solution definitely benefits both the person and the other sentient being. It is true that we should do it with right motivation to benefit the other sentient being, if we do the puja’s or mantra to hurt the other sentient being, it cause more harm to us indefinitely.

Thank you again TK for the explanation!

Thank you for all discussions, valuable information and ways as to how to remove curses and negativity. Basically if we are attached to a Buddhist Centre, we could seek advice and assistance from the pastors or more well versed person/s because we would not be able to know how heavy or severe  the curse is. Besides, we could also order for a specific puja to be performed immediately to reduce the suffering and pain. For some lay person who does not believe in religion might regard us 8 as superstitious if we seek solution or protection spiritually. Why worry as long as we are sincere in helping and in my opinion,  whatever mantras we recite will eventually be of help once we have done it with faith  and good motivation. :)

In this page “Powerful Protection Against Spirits or Black Magic” (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/features/powerful-protection-against-spirits-or-black-magic/ (http://www.dorjeshugden.com/all-articles/features/powerful-protection-against-spirits-or-black-magic/)), I found that the admin has updated with a practice of the wrathful emanation of Dorje Shugden, i.e. known as Trakze or Karma Shugden, that can be done safely by anyone who is afflicted by these negative energies without receiving initiation. It is with detailed teaching on how to do the practice.
I have shared with some friends and a friend has printed it out and started this practice.
May it help many people to be free from the harm and danger from spirits and black magic swiftly.

Yes Lotus 1, the updated version for practice of Trakze Shugden is very detailed and the practice has helped me overcome the numerous legal cases that came my way.  Very effective.

Thank you Lotus 1 for sharing with us the article here. It is just such a great protective practice. The details about the Trakze practice is very in depth and easy to follow for anyone.

Thank you for the sharing! I just love the article.

Thanks TK for posting such previous information on dispelling black magic.
Can I have your permission to post this to other website, so more people will know about the right way, buddhism way of dispelling black magic.

It's a very informative article but in the moments of urgent need, I somehow always forget about this practice and to back to my main practice and mantra.

But, this is very good when we remember and for more serious problems with spirits and other negativity. Wonder if we can just do this practice regularly like once a month or so, just to ensure that whatever spirit or black magic disturbances we have but are unsure of can be negated before it becomes a bigger problem.

Thank you TK and Lotus 1 for your sharing. Trakze mantra is very powerful and helpful for me. I travel a lot and most of the time I stay in different hotels alone, walking alone in the dark to take bus, subway and etc, hence chanting 21 times of Trakze mantra with visualisation has became part of my everyday Dorje Shugden Sadhana for protection since last year. We never know when will the karmas of connecting with certain spirits ripen. I now feel safe and confidence whenever i go. Practice of Trakze not only protect us from spirits, it also clearing difficulties for long
journeys. He will also offer protection from people’s negative speech, negative mantras,
spells or charms as well as sudden death or ill-fated, fatal accidents. So, this form of
Dorje Shugden is very powerful.

I actually got to know about Dorje Shugden through one of my long time friend. She told me she stumbled upon some articles mentioning about a "Dharma Protector" who can help to chase away spirits and remove our problems. She even told me she started practising it after reading the articles and to her surprise, it worked for her in every way. Even her sister who was having financial problems have also managed to have her problems solved. She also told me her relationship with her husband became better and the way she told me was really something out of this world that she had never came across any spiritual help as powerful as this. That led me to google about Dorje Shugden too and it did help me with my travels. I did have problems staying in some hotels where some of the nights i will have bad dreams and thinking someone trying to whisper things to my ears. All that were gone after i started reciting the mantra "Om Benza Wiki Bitana Soha". I will be forever grateful to Dorje Shugden for helping me to clear off my problems. I feel this testimony is important for people to know and hopefully be of help to them too!

I think the best way to cope with curses and negativity is to do our very personal part which are respect all sentient beings, hold vows strictly, keep good samaya with our teacher, and complete daily Sadhana.

Once we are "clean", we will not attract negtaive energy ;)
