Chant These Mantras to Combat Problematic Planets

Vedic astrology contains knowledge about every aspect of an individual’s life. It plays the role of anchor, and shows the will of God, thereby making the life of an individual – easy. Most of the time, an individual can face obstacles in life and find that despite giving his best, things are not working in his favour. Vedic astrology talks about 3 remedies for that – yantras, mantras and gemstones.
Reciting mantras is one way people can combat problematic planets that cause disturbances in the lives of individuals. They are also recited by people to please the god, sometimes while performing meditation, to enhance the overall impact. The sounds created to transform the emotions of a person, and daily practice helps in elevating the thoughts of a person.

“Om hram hreem hroum sah suryaya namah” can also be recited.
Donating wheat, and sugar on Sundays can also help.

“One should perform karma with nonchalance
without expecting the benefits because
sooner or later one shall definitely get the fruits.”
