Manglik Dosha Overview
Manglik is a term that suggests that the person is endowed with high levels of Martian energy, which might manifest as violence and impulsive behavior. This doesn’t mean that it is a negative term. Mangliks are extraordinary people who gain success in their careers and professional lives. Aishwarya Rai for instance is a Manglik and we all know about her success in Bollywood as an actress.
Although Mangliks are incredibly knowledgeable, they may also have an aggressive and impulsive disposition, which can occasionally create issues. However, being impulsive doesn’t indicate that the married life of a person will end in tragedy.
The problem that might arise with one partner being Manglik and the other being non-Manglik is incompatibility, which is largely resolvable through counseling and remedies.
It is believed that if planet Mars (Mangal or Kuja) is situated in the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 7th, 8th, or 12th house of one’s Rashi (Indian astrological moon sign) when born; then that person is called a “Manglik.”
It is believed that Manglik Dosha (or Mangal Dosha) has the main impact on one’s marital life. It can lead to disharmony and stress between the couple. Some also believe that marriage between a Manglik and a non-Manglik can result in the untimely death of one of the partners. With so much importance given to the bride or groom being a Manglik or not, there are quite a few false beliefs as well.
Canceling or Neutralizing Negative Effect of Manglik Dosh
Manglik depends on Mars in the Rashi of Kundli. If a Manglik is born on Tuesday, the negative effect of Manglik Dosha gets canceled. Also, the effect of Manglik Dosha disappears after the age of 28. Those born with Mars in the 8th house have to wait till 36 for the same.
It is believed that if a Manglik marries another Manglik, and the negative effects of Mangalik Dosha get canceled.
Special pooja such as “Mangal Kavacham”, and “Mangal Upasana” is recommended to remove Mangalik Dosha. Many astrologers also recommend gemstones.
A Mangalik and non-Mangalik by performing Kumbh Vivah, and Vishnu Vivah before the actual wedding can cancel the negative effects of Manglik Dosha. Kumbh Vivah is basically a wedding between Mangalik and either idol of Vishnu or a Peepal tree or banana tree or a Clay Pot. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, who is Mangalik, first performed a “wedding” with a Peepal tree, a Banana Tree, and an idol of God Vishnu before marrying Abhishek Bachchan.
Remedies To Neutralize or Get Rid of The Manglik Dosha
To get rid of “Mangalik Dosh” or “Mangal Dosh” wedding rituals are performed between the following:
- Manglik person and a Peepal Tree
- Manglik person and a Banana Tree
- Manglik person and a gold or silver idol of Lord Vishnu
- Manglik person and a clay pot, also known as Kumbh Vivah
A clay pot filled with water is used to conduct the marriage ritual known as Kumbh Vivah. Clay pot is referred to as Kumbh or Kumbha in Sanskrit, while marriage is called Vivah. Kumbh Vivah translates to “Marital Ceremonies with Clay Pots.”
The Manglik person is married to a Clay Pot which is later broken to signify the Manglik has become a widow.
The Kumbh Vivah or Parihar pooja with a tree is just like any regular Hindu wedding, where the Pandit recites wedding prayers and performs wedding rituals, the girl(usually) is dressed as a bride, she performs Seven Pheras around the Peepal/Banana Tree or Clay Pot. Kanyadaan is performed by the father of the bride. Any type of Nivaran Puja or Dosha Parihar pooja cannot be performed at home.
The best location for such Dosha Parihar Puja is a temple.
After the Kumbh Vivah, the Manglik bride is declared married to the Peepal/Banana Tree or Clay Pot. The breaking of the Clay Pot known as Kumbh to which the Manglik has been married signifies that she has become a widow. Now when she can marry her husband, they will not be affected by Mangalik Dosha.
