6 mantras that are believed to remove the bad effects of evil eye

Just as darkness cannot outshine the spiritual flame, the Rishis gave us powerful mantras, not merely as chants but as a living shield of power. When these mantras are recited with devotion and utmost care, they help cleanse our aura, strengthen the divine protection from every unseen harm that comes along the way.
Here we mention 6 mantras that are believed to protect against black magic and the evil eye

2/7

Mahamrityunjaya mantra

Comes from the Rig Ved, the Mahamrityunjaya mantra is one of the most powerful mantras of Lord Shiva, also known as “Om Tryambakam Mantra”.
Meaning “ Om, we worship the trayambaka, (three-eyed one), who is fragrant (of the spiritual essence), increasing the nourishment (of our spiritual core), from the many bondages of samsara similar to cucumbers (tied to creepers) May I be Liberated from Death (Attachment to Perishable Things), So that I am not separated from the perception of Immortality (Immortal Essence pervading everywhere). This mantra is believed to offer protection against various negative influences, including evil eye, black magic, and negative energies. Chant is 108 times, best time in the morning or evening with a diya lit.

3/7

Durga kavach mantra

This is a beeja mantra that invokes Devi Durga’s fierce form to shield from psychic attacks, jealousy or evil eye. These five seed mantras serve to draw the awareness into the heart and develop it there.
These are very powerful mantras relative to the Goddess, often used in combination as OM AIM HRIM SHRIM KLIM, or simply HRIM, SHRIM, KLIM, to access all the benefic powers of the Mother of the Universe. These mantras in various combinations are often used along with the Sri Yantra and its Panchadashi Mantra.

4/7

Gayatri Mantra

The mother of all mantras, starting with the universal sound OM, this mantra is a powerful one that helps devotees stay away from all sorts of negativity and helps them walk on the road of success.

Meaning “ O, Divine mother, our hearts are loaded up with darkness. Kindly make this darkness distant from us and advance brightening inside us.” this mantra is dedicated to Goddess Gayatri and should be chanted 108 times during sunrise, it is believed that purifies mind, eliminates all negative intentions from both self and others as well, simultaneously providing mental clarity.


5/7

Om Namah Shivaay

The simplest mantra that anyone can chant every day. Dedicated to the supreme Lord Shiva, the one responsible for both restoration and destruction. Take this mantra as a kind of tribute to Lord Shiva.

Om is the cosmic sound, the vibration of the universe, the word which created this entire world.
Namah, a salutation, a way of paying homage
Shivaya, directly referred to Lord Shiva, the embodiment of supreme consciousness.
Meaning, “I bow to the divine energy of Lord Shiva.” It is an invitation for his protective and transformative energy to flow into your life.”

6/7

Narasimha Kavach Mantra

This is a powerful prayer offered to Lord Narsimha, and it comes from the Brahmanda Purana. It is believed that one who chants this mantra is bestowed with all opulence. Lord Narsimha is one of the fiercest form of Maha Vishnu, the one who protects us against all forms of evil and negative energies. He is often regarded as a symbol of the victory of good over evil. People who listen or recite this Kavach get rid of all kinds of ailments, black magic and evil eye.
“Om Kshraum Narasimhaya Namah”, meaning “I bow with reverence to Lord Narasimha, the one who is fierce and protective manifestation of Vishnu, whose divine energy is invoked through the seed sound of “Kashraum” to destroy all evil, fear and negativity.”


7/7

Om Hraum Joom Sah

The mantra ‘Om Hraum Joom Sah’ is said to be the Mahamrityunjay beej mantra, and is also called the short version of the Mahamrityunjay, but is also very powerful. Starting with the powerful chant of ‘Om’, the primordial sound of the Universe, it sets the energy for positivity and pure intentions. ‘Hraum’ is said to destroy all negativity and ignorance. ‘Joom’ acts as a protective shield against evil, and ‘Sah’, is the energy that seals the protections around the chanter.
