Vedic Remedies | Remedies from Vedas | Jyotish remedies
Vedic remedies are the integral part of Vedic astrology. This has been provided to mankind by the sages in the Vedic scriptures. Vedic remedies are the tools given in Vedic astrology to humans to get relief from the malefic effects of the planets.
Human life is full of good times and bad times which are caused by the planetary positions. The people around the world having their own sets of problems caused by the ill placements of planets. A man who is very rich may not be having children and because of that he is having no satisfactions and devoid of happiness. Any girl who is beautiful and educated but because of the manglik dosha , her marriage is getting delayed or she is getting problems in marital life. People who are suffering from kaal sarpa dosha may be getting problems in their career, unnecessary criticism from colleagues, legal actions against them and un-favor from bosses. They could be suffering from debts and poverty. People who are suffering from “Arishta” and “Anishtha” yoga will be having problems in case of health.
All these problems are the consequence of one's Karmas of the previous birth or current life. A person's Vedic horoscope clearly sketches the problems he has to face. These problems are outlined in the form of planetary afflictions. Our ancient saints and seers developed the concept of remedial measures to mitigate and in many cases to nullify the effects of the evil affliction and malefic effects of the planets.
In Vedic astrology following classifications or forms of remedies are there which could be prescribed by an astrologer after analyzing the problems the person is facing and the yoga or planet responsible for it :
Gems : From the ancient times, gems are used to ward off the malefic effects of the planets and to increase the good impacts of the benefic planets. Gems are considered very effective as a remedy in Vedic astrology. Each planet is having a gemstone which represents it.
Yagyas / puja : This is the most effective and most recommended form by the sages of ancient times.
Donations: The most easy but less effective way to lessen the malefic effects of planets is to donate material which is related or liked by the malefic planets.
Fasting: For different planets, fasts are recommended on their specific days for those planets and mantras are chanted with the rosary or rudraksha mala to appease the planet. This form also would not suffice alone and have to be performed in combination with some other form.
Yantras : Yantras are instruments or kavach which works as a shield against the ill impacts. Yantras should be prepared by any knowledgeable astrologer by following the exact method prescribed for it. Otherwise it will not be effective and sometimes it will work
