So we discussed yesterday by which activities one can become a ghost in the 8.4 million species of Life there is one species the ghost species and ghost species are many categories such as brah demons fire Phantoms witches many different types and it's terrible being in these species if you don't take shelter of God and do Pudin you can attain these unfortunate species one.
Becomes a ghost by the activities we discussed yesterday the bodies of the ghosts are predominantly air and by this they can enter the human body through many different openings they can enter Through The Eyes.
They can enter through the ears they can enter through the skin any opening in the body and then once they enter the body they provide terrible stress to the body this is a very terrible situation for the person.
When they enter someone's body they reside in the vriti in the Instinct of the false ego the i. this is where the JeevAtma resides this is where the living identity identifies itself but in the vriti of that false ego the Ghost spirit resides and from there it controls all the senses and it can make the person do whatever it wants it controls the senses as it Wills.
Sometimes as a result of sinful karma in one body many spirits May reside and provide terrible torment these ghosts and spirits don't trouble everyone they're not independent they cannot possess whoever they want or trouble whoever they want they can enter the body through the anus the genitals Eyes Nose ear mouth and then they reside in the vriti of the false ego.
Control the senses cause terrible torment but they cannot enter everybody. they are being controlled cannot do as a will Lord bhuteshwar, Lord Shiva controls them all the ghosts in the creation and based on someone's Karma.
If the person has to be punished then Lord allowes them to possess a human body that person's intelligence is first affected before your downfall your intelligence is first affected. he might go and urinate under the people tree which is a Reed Indian fig Tree or go to the creation grounds at odd times like evening time mid afternoon midnight or because of his karmas he might be confronted with the spirit.
And he will end up talking to the spirit or circumstances will be such that his body is impure and the go is a ghost is able to possess them but understand for sure no ghost is independent they cannot possess anybody they want on their own it's not like that.
When your karmas are sinful you're impure and Lord bhuteshwar orders. then the ghost will come and possess you this is not an independent species that they can trouble whoever they want whenever they want.
Otherwise they would just enter anybody they want they eat drink and be married that would be not a punishment If someone becomes a ghost it is because they're supposed to be punished they are consistently anguish. there's so many rivers in Lakes but they not able to drink so many trees with fruits they cannot eat them.
So many food stops in shops but they cannot touch them they're always crying hungry and thirsty and only when they encounter a sinful soul Who's impure and are allowed by the Lord then someone comes in front of them who is sinful and impure and they possess a body and then the food and water the ghost receives satisfies him when some sinful karmas of the human fructify.
Then such a situation is created for a person and only then Ghosts and Spirits can enter him. it is not like the ghost can trouble anybody or punish anybody and as long as the karmas are destined to punish them that is how long the ghost will remain in the body.
When the sinful karmas are used up then circumstance created and the ghost will have to run from the body they cannot stay in anybody for a long time they can only stay as long as the karma determined the punishment.
Ghosts and spirits sometimes also appear in front of saints and mahatmas this is when the ghost punishment is about to finish when the sinful karmas are about to be used up they go to the Saints who are engaged in devotion and are God realize or are enthusiastically pursuing the path of God and by their Dashan their Association and talking them all the sinful actions that cause them to become a ghost are washed away.
He is relieved from that species and that is why they go to the Saints to ensure that these evil spirits never trouble you there is a beautiful solution people learn it in the scriptures say first of all if you see a nail in the tree.
For example and if you have taken shelter of God and you're wearing a tulsi kantimala in your neck you have on your forehead and are chanting even if you remove that nail to the tree no evil spirit can trouble you because it is possible that someone has trapped an evil spirit there by spells and if you just playfull remove it.
And you're Destined to be punished then the ghost will possess you or if you find a bottle that has been dug into the ground and evil spirit may be trapped in it by a tantrik or a sorcerer and if you remove the bottle or break it then the spirit will possess you even in this situation.
If you're wearing a tulsi kantimala and are chanting the holy name then this terrible Spirit cannot touch you they might appear in front of you but they won't be able to touch you and the evil spirits can only attack you if you're impure if your mouth is not rinsed your body is impure you're not remembering God.
You're not bearing a katimala, you haven't take your shelter of God only then they can possess you one person had gone for a walk early in the morning and a terrible ghost appeared in front of him they were scared and fell down but it did not touch them and it just stood there for some time and this person did not say anything and walked away the ghost not stopped them.
Because he was wearing a kantimala then he came and met and spoke to Saints and told him what happened the ghost not try to scare him he just fell du fear it did not even touch him it did not even have the courage to speak to him the Saints told him that because you're wearing a kantimala on your neck.
You're doing devotional service regularly therefore no one has the power to touch you the lord's name and bhajan has a lot of power if someone feels that evil spirits are troubling him or tormenting him then for everyone there is a simple solution which has been described by the Learned people in the scriptures.
If you take shelter of the Lord's Lotus feet and trust these words with complete faith then they say as as follows if a person is made to Listen to shrimat bhagat If you know in Sanskrit yourself then you can do it or you can get a learned person to do it then for sure that ghost will be delivered and the person who is Afflicted will also be freed.
The sins of millions of birds are washed away by shrimat bhagwatam it is a literally embodiment of Krishna reading or hearing shrimat bhagwatam along with it meaning will wipe out s from millions of birds definitely definitely that ghost will be liberated and the one who is possessed will also be free so see Dundkari was a terrible ghost and when Gokarn ji recited shrimat bhagwatam for him then in seven days the knots in the dried bamboo stem.
Where he was sitting started to burst and he attained god without doing any sadhna just by hearing shrimat bhagwatam he got a form like God and he left for God's aboat on a Divine airplane he was a terrible ghost and had done many sinful activities.
Just memorize one of shloka of bhagwatam if you don't know Sanskrit then just memorize one it doesn't matter how terrible the ghosts is they will not be to say in front of you.
Shrimat bhagwatam is a literally embodiment of Krishna his mahamantra just memorize one or half of shloka if you recite it then you will get the fruits of performing a rajasuya and other yagyas. no fear will be able to terrify you no bond will be able to bind you you just try reciting it just try repeating it.
They say this is a very glorious remedy reciting the shlokas of bhagat remembrance of the Lord and serving them serving Radha name serving priyalalju , RadhaKrishna serving Thakurji serving the Radha name serving Shaligram.
Meditating on them or growing to Tulsiji doing her arti serving her serving the cows one who does this no obstacles can defeat him ghosts Etc cannot even touch him one who serves Krishna wears a kantimala in their neck memorizes shlokas of shrimat bhagwatam meditates on Hari gives the cows grass feeds them serves them.
Ghosts cannot even touch these people yes for their own salvation they may appear in front of them they say if someone is dying and you resite shrimat bhagwatam for them they straight away go to the bo of Lord it is very glorious Gopal Sahatranam ,Vishnu Sahatranam ,Hanuman Chalisa shrimat bhagwatam shlokas Kirtan of God's name these are most glorious solutions to get rid of a ghost Spirit demon witch they will not be able to touch you.
If you're wearing a Tulsi on your body if you remember Gopal Sahatranam ,Vishnu Sahatranam some Shloka of shat bhagwatam you serve tulsiji you serve shaligram serve Krishna Drink charanmrit drink ganga water do archman of yamuna water and stay pure.
Then no one has the power to harm you one who is a devote of God there is no one in the three worlds that can harm him therefore the prime benefit of life is to take shelter of the lotus feet of hari.
So keep your body pure Chant in the name of the Lord remember Hari do activities sanctioned in the shastras think of everyone's welfare you'll be safe from these difficulties you'll be saved these evil and extremely Troublesome spirits will not be able to touch you the lord's name is glorious and is roaring to a lot of name Kirtan remain dependent on the Lord this is the prime aanad of life. Thank You.
