Kavacha - Amulet

Kavacha or a Magical *Armour* comes as a pendant filled with a yantra either engraved on a piece of copper or written on birch bark. It is installed with ancient procedure (prayoga) and Mantras which have been handed down through a sampradaya (line of teachers and disciples).

I have learned to make those *Armours* from a teacher of Vaishnava Tantra in Melkote (India), Sri Sudarshana Narasimhacarya. He himself comes from the line of Sri Ramanujacarya and had his studies in Atharva Veda. Out of this great Veda, the Narasimha Tapani Upanishad and the Mantrasara emphasis strongly the use of Mantra, Yantra and Kavacha.

There are several reasons for wearing a Kavacha. One of the most important is to neutralize negative influences which are seen in ones horoscope. Influences which for example indicate the beginning of difficult times can be alliviated by the proper use of Yantra / Kavaca.

The installation of the Kavacha takes place in accordance with the details of the horoscope (birth time and place), and will be completed within 12 days. Along with the small Yantra the capsule will be filled with holy items like Tulasi basil, Sandalwood and ashes from a great Mahayagya to

Lord Narasimha. After this, the persons name and birth star will be recited, and the protective nature of Lord Narasimha (protector of Dharma / Righteousness) will be invoked.

There are 3 kind of Kavacas available:

Protection and Wealth: Sri Lakshmi Narasimha

Eliminating bad influences by planets: Sri Sudarshana Narasimha

Destroying black magic and influence of Ghosts: Ghora Narasimha

For ordering one personal Kavacha for your self, please supply me with your birth data (date, place and time if possible) per email along with your order.

A few points regarding the wearing of the Kavacha:

1. You can tie the Kavacha on your upper arm (right for men, left for women), on the respective wrist or around the neck (recommended). This could be done in front of the deity, altar or in nature at noontime on the waxing moon in the month on Thusday or Friday midday (if possible). This Muhurta is called "Abhijit" and represents victory in all our endeavors. While tying

you should recite the Maha Mantra (of Lord Narasimha) or any other prayer you know.

2. If for some reason after some time you no longer want to wear the Kavacha, or if it becomes damaged, please dispose of it in a river or lake. If you have given the Name, Nakshatra and Gotra do not give the Kavaca to anyone else to wear, as it is prepared for you only. Normally the Kavaca is effective for a very long time, and guards us trough all difficulties in our life, lifelong. Treat your Kavaca as a special Gift.

3.The Kavaca can be worn all the time, even in unclean places etc. If not worn for a while keep the Kavaca on your Altar (otherwise a secret spot in your home), where it can be safe and stay pure. While doing Puja, place the Kavaca along with the Deity, and its potential will be maintained and kept alive.
