Hey there, hope everyone is doing well during his Outbreak (personally, I’m going Cabin Fever up here away from the nearest town). Anyway, during this quarantine, I’ve been buying some books that I have an odd draw towards, mainly those written by Baal Kadmon, I assume folks are very aware of this man’s work, did a ritual with Baal, who managed to rid me of people who I personally despised…though I haven’t seen in weeks before the outbreak, so I hope I had nothing to do with it or Baal. To the point of this, I’ve been reading his books about the Hindu Gods, specifically mantras that concern Shiva, Durga, Ganesha, and Kali. Here are these mantras that interest me, according to each God. Shiva: Wish fulfillment, Spirit Liberation, Finding Romantic love, Protection, Attainment of Occult Knowledge And Understanding, Physical Healing. Durga: Wish Fulfillment (not sure if Durga is ideal or Shiva, I have a feeling its Shiva who I see major powerhouse, I could be wrong), Enhancement of Magical practice, Protection, Attainment of Occult & Spiritual knowledge. Ganesha: Extreme Good Luck, Remove Obstacles, Help with Relationships. Kali: For the conquering of your enemies, Health, Wisdom, Magical Powers, To gain unlimited Favor from Kali.
Anyway, my main question is there anyone here who has worked with one of these Gods or all of them? Did anyone follow these instructions from the books? And what have these Gods have done for you? What miracles can you say these Gods can perform? For me, I have a strange lure to Kali, like there’s something about her that pulls me towards her, it could be the feminine attraction or just could be the fact she looks like a serious badass Goddess, worthy of respect! So, really wanna know who here is close to Kali and can tell me of the miracles she can perform, or why do I feel drawn to her?
I’m not close to Kali Ma in that way but she did help me many, many years ago by preventing a violent situation and getting my bully to change schools. Go and connect with her but her energy can be slightly overwhelming.
Durga is great for protection. She also showed me the errors in my ways. Shiva is one energy I can connect to quite easily.
Start with Ganesha. Whenever you perform a ritual to Hindu Gods, start with a small Prayer to Ganesha as he removes obstacles, acts as a gatekeeper and can help you if the energies become too overwhelming.
Lastly you may want to look into Vishnu and Laskmi as well.
You may be drawn to Kali Ma because she has something to teach you, wants to help you and / or has been guiding you since birth.
“Hinduism” (people from over the Indus river) is a whole system of advanced metaphysics, to degrade it to simply wish fulfilment is - well I mean it can do that, but it’s kind of like saying a car is a tin can to sit in and get hot, if you see what I mean.
Try this:
PS not being a dick saying that, but it is about the purest system of metaphysics we have after the Great Abrahamic Cultural Genocide, which is why karma, chakras, dharma etc are things we have all heard about, even use of crystals was heavily influenced by this.
My dear lady, being blunt/honest is not dicktery, it’s more so you tell me what I need to know. I don’t expect this to be a walk in the park, I may have Persian Ancestry, but even I know Hinduism is a whole new ball game, and the Gods here are completely foreign to me, but I’m willing to get to know them, Especially Kali…seriously I hear that name pretty damn often now, I thought it was just because of India Jones and the Temple of Doom" but I have a feeling it might be something else like maybe she wants me for something, even looking at paintings of her this sense of attraction toward her got stronger. Though Ganesha and the other Gods deserve my attention, and hell I have their mantras, might as well make good use of them. When Baal said recite them 108 times for 40 days I don’t think this is a simple Abrahamic method, for I assume Kali caught wind of my interest in the Siddhi, and now I can’t get her out of my head, and that’s what drew me to these books. So, I better get to chanting to these mantras.
So, it’s Siva? Not Shiva? I think I opened a can of worms and not realize this might be the path I needed to go on.
Hmm, maybe that’s what she did to this tweaker, made him go away. I was secretly hoping she would tear him into shreds by having a truck slam into him, but making him go away that’s alright as well.
I got that feeling about her, seems worthy to protect her subjects/people who pray to her. Shiva, on the other hand, I feel he’s unpredictable, being a Primordial God I get the feeling they’re larger than us and would view us as ants or dust particles, like what makes me a tiny flake in his presence any special? Then again maybe we’re actually special in other ways. But I read that Shiva’s presence is overwhelming and very potent, Baal did put that as a warning so I’m like either he’s the one I should go to for my Siddhi quest, or Kali has another way?
Yeah, he seems like a gentle fellow, so I’ll give him a shot, is there a picture that’s ideal to chant the mantra towards, I’m afraid I’m very low on funds and I saw some cool statues, so I need to use the picture option.
I can’t find any books on Vishnu, at least ones that written by Baal Kadmon, but I found Laskmi!
Yeah, maybe does she have any special connections to this birthdate 02/28/1991 or maybe she took a liking to me and wants to show me how to be a better or darker person.
Yeah she’s not like that. Most spirits choose the peaceful option first and if necessary they answer with the Sword.
Shiva is actually a very, very benevolent and loving God. He is primal yes but he is also known for his child like innocence in Hindu Lore (he can be terrifying when enraged though). His energy is overwhelming. If you use the Om Namah Shivaya Mantra, you’re good. Just don’t vibrate it. It’s potent that way lol.
Hindu Gods are your friends. They understand your situation.
He’s a good deity for begginers especially protection.
I assume you gotta chant that 108 times? Which I can’t complain, I got 108 prayer beads for a reason, also got any Vishnu mantras? Oh and for Shiva, do I actually need a Lingam? Because in the book its a part of the rituals with Shiva.
All in all, my first Hindu will be Ganesha, then I will go to the others, like Druga and Kali. Though I would like to go to Vishnu, I don’t know any of his mantras, so since you said he’s ideal for beginners.
Start with reading about hindu mythology instead of jumping on chanting mantras. without knowing what are these spirits whatever mantras you will chant will be of zero values.
Mantras are like petition spells without proper connection with the spirits and without love and devotion towards mantras and deity these mantras are nothing more than mantras that chaos magickian create by writing what they want and insted or creating sigil they use it as a mantra.
Now this devotion part may sound absurd to LHP practitioners but it is what it is.
Books by “devdutt pattanaik” will get you started with the mythology part.
Books by “david frawley” will get you started with practical usage.
Start with one deity get to know him/her then go ahead, Hinduism is more of a way of living instead of a occult system.
About Baal kadmon books I would say you could find mantras in the books and many on internet easily.
Baal is great, but the best way to become acquainted with Kali Ma is to read from the original sources as much as you are able to. Here are some books I would personally vouch for as a Hindu.
Kali Kaula by Jan Fries (extensively goes into the Pre-Vedic and Vedic history of Hinduism and Tantra)
Tantric Visions of the Divine Feminine by David Kinsley (A+ book on Kali and her Mahavidya avatars)
Hymn to Kali by Arthur Avalon
The Chandipaath (any translation)
Mahakaala Samhita (any translation)
Vijnanabhairava Tantra (any translation)
Literally any book on Kali by David Frawley
Another excellent companion to these books are Sri Ramakrishna’s writings on his encounters with Kali.
If you are especially drawn to Shiva and Kali, look into Kashmir Shaivism and their traditions. Also, please avoid Devdutt Pattanaik. His actions in the recent past have not reflected the spirit of the primordial Hindu gods.
Well, I’m pretty connected to Odin and the other gods, then I felt drawn to the Hindu (Kali specifically) so, you think Kali should be my first? Or just stick with Ganesha and/or Vishnu and Shiva? Also thanks for the author names, I’m gonna seek them out.
Do you have an explanation for Kali echoing in my mind? Like why is she calling me (heard if a specific entity’s name is in your mind, they’re calling you) as I see her as someone I can trust and maybe hug? You know despite this epic pic of her
This image doesn’t scare me. So, I feel more drawn to Kali than to Shiva, although Shiva I do respect because again, he comes off as a likable, but still unpredictable being. Since you’re a Hindu, I figure why not ask you if you have any answers to why Kali Ma is in my mind?
Personally I see him as someone who is stern and if you make any mistakes he won’t mind showing you ur place. He seems like someone who will lash out at even the smallest of mistakes. I get the same vibe from Kali ma.
But Lord Ganesha seems quite different. He is more calm and willing to take one under his wings. He forgives
