Tourists often travel to exotic countries in search of adventure. Talismans, amulets, and potions are often sold there. Here is information from Alexander Reo, a seasoned traveler, parapsychologist, researcher of the spirits of the planet, collector of various ritual relationships with idols.
Who gives life to the deity? …
“Do you know that when you are going to buy a seemingly harmless souvenir, you get involved in the life of a magical object? Because almost any African idol is nothing more than a copy of a deceased specific person. Local shamans claim that his restless soul wanders the world and will bear evil until it finds an image of its former body. Having entered it, she settled there, in the end, calms down.
That is why the Africans keep the figurines of their beloved relatives, and get rid of the wooden "double" of their enemy, selling them for a pittance to some tourist. But I still brought wooden gods, unable to resist their attraction. At first, they made noise at night, gaining a place in the room. In the morning, I found some of them fallen, some at the other end of the apartment. I had to buy a small palm tree and a crocodile skull, putting the whole company in a sunny place and facing their distant homeland,”says Reo.
Before worshiping images of gods, Hindus endow the object with vitality. Doing this through the rite of prana-pratishtha, which literally means "breathing life into the deity." There are also scientific explanations for the phenomenon of life in an inanimate fetish. Chemist from England Don Robins put forward an idea according to which a craft made of any material accumulates the image of the master who created it at the molecular level, and then “translates” this image into space. A physicist from Scotland, Tom Lesbridge, assured that any substance has the ability to accumulate and transmit information in an electromagnetic form. Spontaneous emissions of such information appear as a ghost or sound.
The danger is carried by a magical figurine called a link. It is made by the priests of the Bon religion, which appeared in Tibet long before the Buddha. The purpose of such a figurine is the ritual killing of the enemy, whose vital energy is infused into the link. These figurines are actively sold to tourists in order to "expel the spirit of the enemy from their homeland." Such a spirit can run rampant in your apartment for a long time to find its way home.

Demanding idols, rubbish and tsa-tsa …
You should never buy metal figurines with a tightly closed bottom, especially if mysterious signs are applied to it. In the middle of such a figurine, various magical "things" are placed, because of which it becomes a very demanding idol, which must be worshiped all the time, make offerings of water and write, fumigate with incense and anoint with balms. A deity deprived of attention can greatly complicate your life.
During ritual meditation, Eastern priests charge not only sculptures with their energy, but also ordinary objects: knives, combs, mouthpieces, cups, beads, scarves, and the like. They are called the word "litter". As soon as they try to "make you happy" with such rubbish, get away with it.
Professors Englishman J. B. Rhine and German Getrude Schmeidler conducted research on the effect of the human mind and will on inanimate objects and confirmed the presence of "thought-power", which magicians are good at.
You should not take home miniature clay stupas, as well as tsa-tsa - amulets in the form of drums that are hollow inside. Tsa-tsa are made … from the bone of the deceased. In general, never take anything from caves, burials, any ritual structures!
The breath thieves …
In the East, it is believed that hosts of malicious spirits - singdomo - live around us. Such creatures steal the breath of people and animals. They carry the stolen breath to Samye monastery on the banks of the Brahmaputra. But the lamas-sorcerers of the monastery catch Singdomo and walled them up in clay figures. If you bring one to your house and put it in your bedroom, then you yourself understand …
But you can buy a figure with a "mounted demon" from monks. The time will come and he will really take the last breath from his master, but he will always make sure that until his very death hour all his breaths and exhalations are healthy.
It is interesting to buy a yak tail in the eastern market. Big, fluffy, black and white. It is very convenient for them to fan the dust, drive away flies. But God forbid you to wave them over your head! You will incur terrible troubles. It is also dangerous to buy skins of marmots, gophers, squirrels. The holy hermits are reincarnated in these animals, so by buying the skin you become an unwitting accomplice in the murder of the saint.
Women should not buy a monisto of silver coins strung on a strap. Because every piece of money is a love souvenir from a man. If there are few coins, a woman is destined to rarely rest in the arms of her lover. But if the strap is literally filled with "pennies", its owner runs the risk of being left without a pair.
In India and Nepal, amazingly beautiful silver medallion boxes on an openwork chain are sold. As a rule, they are decorated with turquoise, which absorbs human ailments; translucent carnelian - "God's eye", which looks out and scares away evil demons; pieces of coral that gives strength. However, check if the box is empty: local ladies there carry pieces of the relics of their deceased relatives. From you, these bones will take away the desired flesh for them, that is, your health.
The charm of the silver earrings in the form of seven thin circles, dotted with ligature symbols, is also deceiving. Each of the circles embodies a type of magical weapon, from now on directed against you. Because you are a stranger!
Weapon collectors are not advised to look for the sacrificial purba knife. When a person sleeps, his astral body makes its flight, these triangular daggers of the Bon god-priest Lha-Shen can cut the thread of mu, which connects the soul to the body.
In no case should you take home the Tibetan hyaling - an oboe-type wind instrument. It is made from the thigh bone of a virgin and richly decorated with silver forging. "Material" for hyaling is specially grown in the monasteries of Nepal. No, girls, thank God, are not killed. But after waiting for one of them to die a natural death, the bones are used "as intended."
Poisonous grace …
So what comes out - no exotic and you can't bring it from distant countries? As far as possible! For example, Arab sorcerers make wonderful talismans from iron, copper or their alloys. They are made in accordance with the position of the Moon or the Sun in a particular zodiac constellation.
Indian magicians make amulets from the sacred trees of shraktya and gangida - discs with diverging rays. This chakra is the ancient Indian symbol of the Sun. Such talismans speak for some kind of protective action and tie to the owner's right hand.
If you are lucky, in Buddhist monasteries you can buy lists from the unique works "Kandzhur" (sermons and teachings of the Buddha) and "Tanjur" (Buddha's commentaries on natural phenomena). The energy of the lists is so great that they glow in the dark! It is very dangerous to sit over such books for a long time, and even more so to keep them in the apartment. The fact is that they are written on special paper, which is made by hand in monasteries and impregnated with poisons - from insects and mold. These vapors are fatal to humans. The same applies to scrolls with texts of prayers and images of mandalas: they can be acquired and stored only in special metal cylinders, by the way, very beautiful ones.
If you already have similar souvenirs in your home, here are some tips on how to neutralize them:
♣ it is necessary to balance the number of "good" and "evil";
♣ Idols with eyes should not look at each other and “see” themselves reflected in the mirror. Touch the figures as little as possible;
♣ do not hold feasts with friends in the presence of idols if they cannot keep themselves in check;
♣ be respectful of the person's images: greet him, talk, praise them.
Some aspiring curiosity gatherers may ironically scoff at these tips. And in vain! Because all of them have been repeatedly tested in practice by real collectors.
