The world is full of positive as well as negative energies. It is not that someone intentionally exudes negative energy but it is just how complicated our chakras are within. But we must keep in mind that we should not become a recipient and transmitters of negative energies.
Negative thoughts in the form of jealousy, criticizing others, being quarrelsome, gluttony, lethargy, and more should be avoided. Evolution as a better human is a daily activity and it is important to note that our energies are affecting the environment around us and vice-versa.
How to check negative energy at home?
- Chronic health problem of a family member, who may not be responding to treatment. There are times when we are not able to find a solution to the ailment of a family member.
- Work or good opportunities get stuck or snatched away repeatedly just at the final stage of fruitification.
- Success seems far away and desired results are not being materialized.
- Feeling lethargic all the time and not having a focus or the will to do anything despite loads of opportunities around.
- Uncomfortable in staying or working on such premises.
- Repetitive negative thoughts or thinking of suicide. Erratic, irrational, or unpredictable behavior by a member(s) of the family, in response to simple/straight stimulus.
- Repeated quarrels within the family or team members at work.
- Unprecedented and illogical happenings in the house (which could be resultant of the existence of certain negative supernatural forces or some kind of black magic being deployed).
The existence of such negativity could be a result of some gross Vastu doshas (spatial & construction anomalies) like severe Vastu defects specifically in South to West region or having a wrong location for the abode of your God in South to West and/or in the center of the Vastu.
Apart from that, keeping your home unclean, and cluttered, with a lot of unused, damaged, broken items/objects strewn around could become a breeding ground for negative and stagnant energies.
But the answers to the eradication of such energies are found in our very own ancient science of Vastu Shastra. Dr Raviraj Ahirrao, Vastu Expert & Co-Founder Vastu Raviraj shares tips on how we can remove negativity from our homes using Vastu Tips.
This tip not only helps to keep the negative energy away but helps to create a good first impression for your guests
Remove negative energy from homes with these simple steps
- Keep The Entrance Of Your House Clean add small plants at the entrance of your house to make it look more inviting. It is essential that not only your house is clean and tidy from the inside and outside as well. Therefore you must make sure to clean the entrance of your house regularly.
- A mixture of water with lemon juice, salt, and white vinegar should be used for wiping doorknobs and windows. Afterward, pour sea salt at all entrances and cover it with a doormat to prevent negative energy from entering the premises.
- While mopping the floor, a pinch of sea salt should be added to the water (except on Thursdays) This remedy helps in destroying the negative energy of the house or place of work.
To ward off evil eyes, you can take a pinch of salt in your hand and move it over the head of the person affected thrice (this can be done for 2-3 days at a stretch). The salt should be thrown out of the house. - Salt can be used for business purposes too and this salt remedy can be also used to increase sales – put a piece of salt in a red cloth and hang it in the store or office. This will protect the stores and businesses from evil eyes. This will gradually increase profits for both office and home to overcome poverty
- Negative energies of bathrooms and toilets can be also removed by a simple Vastu step – According to Vastushastra, both glass and salt are factors of Rahu. Therefore, a cup of glass filled with salt should be kept in the toilet and bathroom in the house. This remedy helps in removing such Vastu defects
- If the relationship between a husband and wife is upset about anything or having some conflict or a mental disturbance, then a piece of rock salt in one corner of the bed would help. It will remove negative energy and replace this piece after a few months.
Burning of Sage & Agarbattis
- The lighting of Agarbatti (incense sticks) and Dhoop can amplify the auspicious energies. The agarbattis and dhoops should be shown to every nook and corner of the house twice daily and this will help us to reduce the negative energy and promote a healthy and energetic life.
- Burning “sage or smudge sticks” and spreading its smoke in an anti-clockwise manner in every corner of the premises could help in removing negative energies
Use of colors and crystals
- Use of crystals like Amethysts, black tourmaline and many such to eradicate negative energies can also be used.
- Colours have always impacted the energies at home and Vastu Shastra suggests that some colours are very impactful in inviting positive energies at home. Every direction of the premises is influenced by particular colors. However, anti-colour gives rise to negative energy. Blue in NW, N, NE. Green in East, Orange in SE, Red in South, and Red+ Yellow in SW. Dark blue in the West is the ideal color.
Benefits of religious symbols, items, and use of prayers & chants
- Placing religious items, like pyramid yantras and idols or pictures of Gods invites auspicious energies.
- The ideal location of the puja room should be in the North East to make it Vastu compliant.
- Religious and auspicious symbols like elephants can also be placed strategically to enhance and amplify the entry and thriving of positive energies on the premises.
- Auspicious sounds like those of bells, conches, and cymbals should be encouraged. This helps destroy negative & stagnant energies from the premise.
- Recitation of mantras by self or through electronic gadgets are very powerful means of neutralizing negative energies.
- Applying Yantra with Mantra under the guidance of experts is another powerful way of eliminating bad energies from one’s surroundings.
- Angel meditation, reiki, and such neo-spiritual methods can also help in eradicating negative energies Negative energies also increase exponentially if there are pictures depicting rivalry among family members or any kind of painting depicting moroseness or sadness. Artifacts like the Taj Mahal or sculptures of terrifying dispositions can all be increasing negativity without your knowledge. So do broken glasses, mirrors, broken images, or idols of Gods and cactus plants. Negative energies are easy to feel and there are ways and methods to eradicate them with some simple and at times complex steps. Having said that, there could be times when all scientific efforts to resolve the problems would fail. At those times one can use the dowsing method or you can get the premises checked by experts. The remedies in such cases should be under expert guidance always!
