The below practice was taught to me by Pt. K.P Tripathi ji. The practice is done if one is facing constant obstacles in one’s life due to problems in job, business, academics or there is a prediction given by soothsayers of an impending danger. The practice finds its mention in Durva Tantra ( a tantric work on the worship of Lord Ganesha). Lord Ganesha the first to be worshiped is easy to appease and he is the remover of obstacles. As the scriptures says , he can be appeased by simple offering of Durva – grass which can be easily found.
All that is needed is 11 durva grass ,10 durva grass to be tied with the 11th one. Sit in a meditative position facing east or northeast in either padmasana ,sidhasana or normal sitting posture. Keep the durva in the left hand palm and cover it with the right hand one and place your enclosed palms near to the mooladhar chakra and chant 108 times the basic mantra of Sri Ganesha (Om gam ganapathaye namah).
After the above thing is done, One can keep the durva with oneself for 7days or one can also feed the durva along with jaggery to a cow. If the cow avoids eating the durva, it means one must experience the fruits of the impending karma.
The above ritual was also recommended to me by Late Swami Ramanandnath ji from Karpatri Maharaj’s tradition for all astrologers as many knowingly unknowingly share the karma of people seeking consultation and the relief comes from the worship of Cow with the above ritual to be done on Thursday.
