The sacred ritual to immobilize enemies and obstacles through the divine power of Maa Baglamukhi
Stambhan (स्तम्भन) is one of the six acts (Shatkarma) in Tantric practices, which means to immobilize or paralyze. Baglamukhi, the eighth Mahavidya, is specifically associated with the power of stambhan - the ability to stop or freeze negative forces, enemies, and obstacles. The Baglamukhi Stambhan Puja is a specialized ritual designed to invoke this particular aspect of the goddess.
This powerful ritual is performed to neutralize enemies, stop harmful activities directed against you, freeze court cases, halt the spread of rumors, and immobilize any negative forces working against your well-being and progress. When performed with proper rituals and sincere devotion, it can bring remarkable results in stopping adversaries in their tracks.
This specialized puja is particularly beneficial in the following situations:
Auspicious Timing: Tuesday and Thursday are considered most favorable. The ritual is particularly effective when performed during Amavasya (New Moon), Purnima (Full Moon), or during Navratri (especially on the eighth day).
Take a bath and wear clean, preferably yellow clothes. Clean the puja area and spread a yellow cloth. Place the idol or picture of Maa Baglamukhi facing East or North. Arrange all puja materials within reach.
Sit in front of the deity in a comfortable posture. Take some water in your right palm, recite your sankalpa (intention for performing the puja), and release the water into a plate.
"ॐ मम सर्वशत्रु स्तम्भनार्थे श्री बगलामुखी प्रसाद सिद्धयर्थे अस्य पूजनं करिष्ये।"
(Om Mama Sarvashatru Stambhanaarthe Shri Baglamukhi Prasad Siddhyarthe Asya Pujanam Karishye.)
Perform the standard puja rituals as follows:
For each offering, recite: "ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि देव्यै [item name] समर्पयामि।"
After completing the basic puja, proceed with the specialized stambhan ritual:
"ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि सर्वदुष्टानां वाचं मुखं पदं स्तम्भय स्तम्भय स्वाहा॥"
(Om Hleem Bagalamukhi Sarvadusṭānāṁ Vāchaṁ Mukhaṁ Padaṁ Stambhaya Stambhaya Svāhā)
"ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि [enemy's name] स्तम्भय स्तम्भय कीलय कीलय ह्लीं ॐ स्वाहा॥"
"ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि मम कार्य सिद्धिं कुरु कुरु स्वाहा॥"
Perform aarti by waving the lit camphor in a clockwise direction while reciting the Baglamukhi Aarti. Offer your final prayers and express gratitude to the goddess.
Keep the wooden plank with the nailed yantra in a safe, clean place, preferably covered with a yellow cloth. It should remain undisturbed until your purpose is fulfilled. Some practitioners keep it for 40 days, after which it can be respectfully immersed in flowing water.
ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि सर्वदुष्टानां वाचं मुखं पदं स्तम्भय स्तम्भय स्वाहा॥
(Om Hleem Bagalamukhi Sarvadusṭānāṁ Vāchaṁ Mukhaṁ Padaṁ Stambhaya Stambhaya Svāhā)
This mantra specifically invokes the stambhan (immobilizing) power of Maa Baglamukhi to paralyze the speech, face, and movement of all negative forces.
ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि [opponent's name] मुखं स्तम्भय जिह्वां कीलय बुद्धिं विनाशय ह्लीं ॐ स्वाहा॥
This specialized mantra is used specifically for legal matters to immobilize the opponent's arguments and testimony in court.
ॐ ह्लीं बगलामुखि [enemy's name] स्तम्भय स्तम्भय कीलय कीलय ह्लीं ॐ स्वाहा॥
This mantra is used to specifically target and immobilize a particular person who is causing harm or creating obstacles.
While regular Baglamukhi Puja is performed for general blessings and protection, Stambhan Puja is specifically focused on immobilizing negative forces and enemies. It includes specialized mantras and rituals like the nailing ceremony that are not part of the standard puja.
Results vary depending on the severity of the situation, the power of the opposing forces, and the devotion of the practitioner. Some may see effects within days, while others might take weeks. For maximum effectiveness, the ritual is sometimes performed for 11 consecutive Thursdays.
Yes, you can perform this puja on behalf of a family member or loved one who is facing opposition or enemies. In such cases, include their name in the sankalpa and visualize their protection during the ritual.
The wooden plank with the nailed yantra should be kept in a clean, safe place until your purpose is fulfilled. After that (typically 40 days), it can be respectfully immersed in flowing water like a river. The other used materials can be offered to a sacred fire or placed under a peepal tree.
While naming the specific person or obstacle enhances the focus of the ritual, it is not absolutely necessary. If you don't know who is causing harm or prefer not to name them, you can use general terms like "all my enemies" or "all negative forces working against me."
Note: This puja should be performed with pure intentions and sincere devotion. For serious issues, it is recommended to consult with an experienced tantric practitioner or spiritual guide.
