Principle
Elephant Toran and Statues Represent Rahu: Avoid with a Weak Rahu
The elephant represents Rahu, so elephant statues or hanging-elephant bandhanwar (toran) do not suit every home, especially where the family's Rahu is debilitated.
What it does
Prevents the bondage, business loss and suspicion of black magic that a wrongly used Rahu symbol brings.
Where
Doors, walls and any place where toran or statues are hung

Cautions
- Do not hang elephant bandhanwar or keep elephant figures without checking Rahu in the family's kundli
Explanation and notes
Case: a businessman bought expensive hanging-elephant bandhanwar for Diwali and hung them all over the house. Every member of the family had a debilitated Rahu; within days his business and work collapsed and he believed someone had done tantra on him. In effect he himself came into bandhan (bondage).
