Black magic is a topic that has intrigued and frightened people for centuries. It is often seen as negative and frightening. Various stories, beliefs, and rumors about black magic are widespread among people. But the question is, what exactly is black magic? How does it work? And how can one be protected from it? In this article, we will understand the complete information related to black magic in detail.
What is Black Magic?
Black magic is a type of supernatural power that is used for negative purposes. Its purpose is to harm a person, control them, suppress their will, or create obstacles in their life. Black magic is often associated with superstition, spells, incantations, and dangerous magical practices.
History of Black Magic
The history of black magic is very old. It has been linked to human belief and religion since ancient times. It has different names and forms in different cultures, but the purpose is almost the same – to influence others. Beliefs related to black magic vary in Hindu, Islamic, African, and Western religions.
In India too, black magic is mentioned in ancient religious texts and folk tales. Some people believe that black magic is performed by yogis or monks with extreme power, but in reality, it can be performed by anyone who knows the methods of black magic.
How is Black Magic Performed?
To perform black magic, the magician or person performs certain specific actions. These actions often occur in the following steps:
1. Selection of Desired Target
The person or tantrik performing black magic first obtains the name, date of birth, and other personal information of the person they want to cast the spell on. This information is considered necessary to enhance the effect of the magic.
2. Tantra-Mantra and Chanting
Tantra-mantra is the most important part of black magic. The magician chants mantras that help to attract ancient and mysterious powers. These mantras are generally in Sanskrit, Persian, Arabic, or the local language. Along with the mantras, specific actions are also performed many times, such as applying tilak, wearing a ring, or going to a special place.
3. Use of Magical Objects
Magical objects are often used in black magic, such as:
- Coal, black soil, or ash: These are often used symbolically.
- Skeleton, nails, hair, or blood: Objects of the victim are taken to increase the power of the magic.
- Doli (bier), Gutka (amulet), or puppets: Which are used as a representative of that person to cause harm.
- Enchanted amulets and gems: In which powers are filled.
4. Worship or Ritual
Those who perform black magic go to certain special places, such as cemeteries, forests, or deserted places, and perform rituals. These rituals involve chanting special types of mantras and performing magical acts along with tantra-mantras. Sometimes the night time is chosen for this because it is considered more powerful.
5. Taking the help of creatures or evil spirits
In some cases, those who perform black magic summon such creatures, demons, or evil spirits with whose help they want to accomplish their goals. This is known as calling 'Pishach Preth-Bhoot' (Vampires and Ghosts). Through these powers, they cause psychological and physical harm.
