Removing Negative Energy

Regular water bath and rubbing of the body by hand or by brush is equally important. He should prefer bath in running water or salt water to 'kill' negative energy.

Another method to remove negative energy is to put foot in salt water, lukewarm, hot or cold, depending upon body's demand at a particular time. This process clears Swadhisthana and solar plexus 'chakra'.

Neutralizing negative energy

There are certain oils which have the usefulness to create positive and at the same time neutralize negative energy. It is useful to have oil lamp filled with either mustard oil, or sesame (till) oil or ghee or clarified butter. Candle when burnt also neutralizes negative energy and creates a positive one. 'Trataka on candle frame is very good as its light clears out the negative energy. This is ­supposed to clear Ajna 'chakra'.

Keeping the positive Energy

In order to clear the environment salt water, specially sea-salt water, is also useful. It has the potential for neutralizing negative energy. It is advisable to mop the floor with sea-salt water or even keep the bowl of sea-salt water in a corner of the room. One should keep the bowl in the sun for a few hours now and then and also change it after certain days. Another way to produce positive energy is to keep freshly cut flowers with leaves and stems intact in water in a vase or bowl. Indoor plants are positive energy generators and negative energy neutralizers. Colours favoured are yellow, orange and blue/violet. ­

The two processes of elimination of negative energy and creation of positive energy take place simultaneously in the energy body whenever positive energy is supplied to it. Thus the two processes are inter-related and not independent of each other. However, some of these measures only neutralize or break down negative energy, e g., salt water treatment, uncooked rice treatment, etc.
