Question asked by Delphine or Metta Pillar
I moved into this house, after being there a few weeks I started noticing strange occurrences. I saw a black orb flying through the air, I am not the only one who saw it. . Serious accidents happened where I was almost killed. I then heard growling in the air near me when I was in bed. Since living in this house my health has declined, the house itself has changed hands many times and the agent who sold it kept much information from me. My luck has also gone down markedly, people are behaving hostile manner to me. Many other things which I will not go into, unpleasant things. I went to a priest and he said there are many demons in this town. Anyway he was of no help to me. Someone sent me a mantra, which I noticed when I said it, there was immediately an effect of more peace and quieting of my mind. There has even been violence towards me . I only speak English and some of the videos which I tried are quite advanced for me to suddenly understand all the visualizations, etc. I have said OM BENZA WIKI BITANA SOHA, which is what I noticed immediately had good effect. I have tried other things like salt around me, white sage smoke, etc. Can you please make any other suggestion to help me. I am an ordained Buddhist in another tradition , but the temple closed and the Master Monk moved away and is retired now. Most of the religious people here are Christians and do not believe in spirits or demons, etc. But something is touching me and really causing a lot of negative energy around me. I do really need some help. It seems to be getting worse and worse. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. My Buddhist name is Metta Nguyen, my given name when born is Delphine S. Pillar.
Dear Delphine S. Pillar/Metta Nguyen,
I am very sorry to read that you are going through this at the moment. You are not alone in this, many people have gone through what you are, and there is definitely a way to help solve the problem. Nothing is impossible in this situation, so have hope and keep your mind firm.
May I suggest that you engage in the practice of Dorje Shugden in his wrathful form of Trakze. This practice is very beneficial in such cases where people have very strong spirit disturbances, as you have described. Even though the visualisations may seem complicated, you should try you best to practice them. If you really cannot do so, you can concentrate on an image of Trakze while reciting the mantra and believe strongly that Trakze is present in your home and protecting you. However the best would be to engage in the visualisations as described in this post: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/buddhas-dharma/trakze-to-dispel-black-magic-spirits.html. Here is a link to a video teaching about the practice as well, which covers the same information, but may be easier to follow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiNx7DENlfw.
Another thing to do, that you may find helpful is to print off a copy of the Dorje Shugden Sung Kor, which you can find here: https://www.tsemrinpoche.com/wp-content/gallery/buddha-images-high-resolution/dssungkhorhighres.jpg. This can be placed above the front door and back door, to create strong protection against spirits and negative energies. Many people that have faced the same sort of problems that you are, have been helped through the practice of Dorje Shugden and Trakze. You can also continue to put salt down and smudge the house with white sage smoke. When you are smudging, you should ensure that there is a lot of smoke, and recite the mantra of Dorje Shugden or Trakze while you do so. This can definitely help the situation. You can even use Protector Incense, available here: http://www.vajrasecrets.com/tibetan-juniper-loose-incense. This is very potent for clearing negative energies from one’s house.
There are numerous pujas or prayers that can invoke upon the energies of the enlightened beings that can definitely help in this situation if you want to sponsor them. Such a puja is the Trakze Puja which would be performed on your behalf (http://www.vajrasecrets.com/trakze-puja-fund), Sheningdundok Puja (http://www.vajrasecrets.com/sheningdundok-puja-fund) and even the Gyabshi Puja (http://www.vajrasecrets.com/gyabshi-puja-fund). These pujas have been used for centuries by the monasteries and are very effective.
The key here is to remember that you should keep your mind as stable and firm as possible. When we encounter such problems, especially of the supernatural kind, this can greatly disturb our mind, and we have many unstable thoughts running through our head, and may begin to act not like our normal selves. This is actually something that will allow the spirit to be able to disturb you mind even more. When our minds are unstable then spirit disturbances can increase. When people engage in practices that counter spirit disturbances, they may notice that the disturbances increase at the beginning. This is normal, but over time if you continue with the practice, you will notice that the situation can be resolved over time. I sincerely hope that all of this helps.
Thank you.
