Ritual to cast off the evil eye
Why do we have to say a prayer to Deity Maruti specifically?
Deity Maruti is an aspect of the God principle who has the following attributes (aside from others):
-
Omnipotent: Among all Deities, it is only Deity Maruti who cannot be troubled by distressing energy.
-
Master of ghosts: Maruti is the master of ghosts. Hence, a person possessed by ghosts is taken to a Maruti temple or is asked to recite verses in praise of Deity Maruti (Maruti stotras).
- Manifest Divine Energy: The Supreme God principle is in Observer mode. It does not perform any function in the universe. The various Deities are aspects of the attributeless God principle that facilitate specific functions in the universe. To carry out any function, manifest Divine Energy is required. Among all the Deities, Maruti has the maximum manifest Energy (prakat-shakti). Hence when a person in distress appeals or prays to Deity Maruti, He appears early and the reduction in distress is also fast.
