Hindu Gods

Spirits, Evocation & Possession

Same as with any system,The way i did it was i dug into their symbolism and history for Prepatory emmersion, and i used the mantras and of each god to connect with them with japa meditations after i opened my ritual circle. Had along of change happen in those years.

Most extreme invocation with shiva i did i ca. Remember was when i ended up in a japa cycle of 108 x 10. Helped me learn alot about myself and rid myself of alot of toxins in my life. Both within and without.

If you follow the basic principles you can work in any system from what my experiences have shown.

There is strong a likelihood those who are rigid with “tradition” say “this is the only was this works” many people who work with these gods and the loa would say otherwise.

okay so basically you have the mantras and sat down and chanted them… have you communicated with these gods? Have you experienced them ? Have you ever asked for something? :slight_smile:

i am a hindu … just want to share this …

5-6 yrs ago in my home temple of ganesha during ganesh chaturthi …we used to give daily offerings to ganesha which included a glass of water also.

in that time my father was not financially well

that day after giving offering of water … the water started to disappear from the glass …like someone invisible was drinking it.

i was so shocked and still remember those visuals.

and also after some months ny father’s salary also got increased .

thanks ganesha :heart:

Okay soo :laughing: i am a walking example of BE CAREFUL What you ask for, Similar to how Asbjorn worked with odin. From shiva I asked for guidance and wisom, from Ganesh i asked for help learning how to remove obsticales myself both internal and external. From Durga I asked for to learn ways to pruify myself and my life.

The 2-3 years i worked with these gods was possibly some of the most chaotic times in my life. After which i came through the other end with everything i asked for and a much prosperous life before i started.

If you notice most of my requests are to learn how they do what they can do. And as a result things were manifested in my life that required me to learn how to do these things. Which as a result comes with the need for chaos, obstacles, corruption ect. In order to learn how to do a thing there must be a need to do it And im sure shiva isnt done with teaching me by a long shot. More than 5 years later i will still have moments where synchronicities and symbols tied to him will spring up in my current work. Which isnt surprising since it involves the more primordial aspects of these gods.

I think I can link a YouTube video that has her mantra and some interesting visuals, you can use that as ritual music and meditate on the visuals too.

When she comes you just feel this profound sense of vastness, and a strong mother link presence, you might find that you start telling her all your life problems before you know it.

And she’s amazing to work with for protection. If she takes a liking to you, she’ll trample on those who try to oppose you, feast on their blood and add their skulls to her beautiful collection on her necklace

She is the slayer of devils she will not work with you

#14

What do you mean by that?

@Pershana From experience? Personally, I doubt it given that she’s a favourite of Sinister groups. These Hindu Gods are A LOT darker than what Hindus assume. Remember, Kurtis Joseph says that the Divs (Zoroastrian Demons) are a TRUER REFLECTION of the nature of these entities.

Kali is the consort of Shiva who gives shelter to Asuras ( demons ). And in Hindu Mythology she has slain only Evil demons causing harm to people.

@Infinite_Dreamer and Shiva is the Div Sovar who IS a Demon.

#18

@TheStorm yeah Sovar is another aspect of Shiva.

#19

@Infinite_Dreamer I would argue that Shiva is a false mask of Sovar but that’s a whole other debate.

#20

@TheStorm I read a post by Kurtis Joseph saying that Zoras kinda masked the Vedic gods into Divs.

@Infinite_Dreamer He also says that by Demonizing the Vedic gods they Zoroastrians ended up creating a more accurate reflection of them. I think he said that these are ancient forces of counter-creation that were forced into a narrow cultural context by Hinduism or something like that.

Yeah that’s true I remember it now. Yeah I guess they kinda of got full fledged freedom and to be in their natural chaotic form. Although Shiva depicted as Veerabadra (another aspect of shiva) was quite chaotic destructive and on a killing rampage without consideration for anything or anyone due to his outburst of anger. And sames the case with Kaali as Shiva always had to intervene to calm her down. So demonising would have given them freedom to be in that state always.

Its not so much a reflection as a stripping away. By demonizing these god the imposed humanity that is placed on them is torn away leaving a more primal force, there by getting a step closer to the core that force represents. Least that is my understanding of it. Having worked with shiva and sovar i can tell you first hand there is a massive difference in vibration and manifestation.
