When a family sleeps far too much, the home sits on a lazy, dormant land whose fire element has fallen to zero; a havan, an eight-day cow ghee akhand jyot in the South-East and daily dhoop with Bhimseni kapoor restore the fire and correct the sleep.
Bhimseni kapoor
South-East zone of the home
A small desi cow ghee diya and above all a bhimseni kapoor lamp, the fragrance Shikhi likes most, correct a cut, raised, dirty, uneven or toilet-affected Shikhi pad and a blocked mind.
Bhimseni kapoor lamp
Shikhi pad, E1, and around any defect there
Burning hing and making a spirit-affected person smell it drives away any spirit (pret) at once. Such a person should also always keep yellow mustard with them.
Paper, or powdered camphor to burn it on
Near the affected person
For stock that is not selling or land that will not sell, cleaned yellow mustard is purified by circling a camphor flame over it (prasuk karan), energised with 11 malas of a mantra and, on a Monday or Wednesday, put into pits at the four corners.
Piece of camphor (kapoor ki dali)
Pits in the four corners of the land or premises
Melting a little Bhimseni camphor an hour before sleeping drives negativity away, giving deep, dreamless sleep and harmony between husband and wife.
Bhimseni kapoor (camphor), one small tablet
Bedroom
The full purification done where a bone has been dug out, the land's equivalent of the rites after a death: vastu registry with five coconuts, removal of the affected soil, agni sanskar with mango wood, water, gomutra and cow-dung purification, lime and sulphur, a 24-hour lamp and mercury.
Camphor (kapoor)
The spot where the bone was found, the surrounding soil, and the four corners of the plot
Gomti chakra bought from a shop are washed with gangajal, shown fire through a havan or burning camphor, then given a command and energised with mantra. Only then do they carry out the work assigned to them.
Havan materials, or Bhimseni camphor (kapoor)
After Om and swastik the kalash is the greatest symbol and is established before every beginning (wedding, business start, construction, any of the 16 sanskar). A filled mangal kalash with a coconut in the North-East of every home, factory and office forms Gajkesari yoga and balances the five elements.
Bhimseni kapoor or 1 gram mercury
North-East of every home, factory and office; a clay kalash can go in any direction
Three simple tests show whether Shikhi devta is awake: how far the ghee fragrance spreads after a small havan, how long a ghee diya burns at the pad, and how tall wheat jaware grow there in seven days.
Bhimseni kapoor
Shikhi pad, E1
Shikhi, also called Shiva, is the first outer devta of the pishach bhoomi, at E1 near the North-East corner. A mahayogi and a highly sensitive maha-dowser, its pad reacts at once to anything done there; it governs vision, foresight and decisions.

E1 pad, 39.375 to 50.625 degrees from North, outer pishach bhoomi at the North-East corner
Mahendra (Indra), the fourth devta of the East, is the king, sustainer and administrator who brings the energy of the planets, Sun, Moon and 27 nakshatras to earth and spreads it evenly through the house. It gives control over the mind and senses, right decisions, government support, contacts, name and fame.
Fragrance: red rose, kapoor (camphor) and chandan
Pad E4 of the East side, 73.125 to 84.375 degrees (East-North-East and East zones)
It is a lazy, dormant land where the energy is disturbed and the fire element has fallen to zero, since sleep comes with coolness. Perform a havan with samagri, light a cow ghee akhand jyot in the South-East for eight days, and burn dhoop daily with Bhimseni kapoor on the lamp's upper plate; within eight days everyone starts waking up.
Three tests. Offer nine aahuti of half a spoon of desi cow ghee with half a spoon of rice over burning Bhimseni kapoor: if the ghee fragrance spreads through the whole house up to the pishach bhoomi, the devta is active. A ghee diya at the spot that burns longer than the same ghee lasts elsewhere also shows activation. Sow wheat in soil in a leaf dona, as in Navratri: jaware about 11 inches long in seven days mean full activation, about 7 inches mean moderate, and then the activation methods should be done.
Removing the bone is not enough; the land needs its rites, just as a house is purified after a death. Do a vastu registry with five coconuts (four corners and the bone spot), remove the affected soil, do agni sanskar with mango wood, ghee and camphor in 16 places and float the ash in flowing water, purify with water and mantra, sprinkle gomutra and plaster with cow dung, put lime and sulphur in the pit, keep a lamp burning there for 24 hours, and mix a little mercury into the soil and the four corners. If the shilanyas had already been done, it is broken and must be redone after purification.
Spirits inside a person disturb the whole body and drain its energy. Cupping therapy was suggested for the body, and she should always keep yellow mustard with her. Along with it hing must be used: burning hing and making her smell it drives away any spirit at once, and it can be burnt on paper or on powdered camphor.
