Mangal ke Upay
remedies for Mars
Mantra, daan, vrat, ratna, rudraksha and the Lal Kitab upay for Mangal in each bhava, each with the reason it is given.
These are suggestions, not prescriptions. The tradition turns to them when Mangal is weak or troubled in a kundli, or when its dasha or a hard transit is running. Your kundli says which applies to you.
Beej mantra
The graha’s seed sound. Chanted with a steady count, it is the oldest way to strengthen what Mangal stands for: courage, drive and brothers. Begin on Tuesday and keep the same time and count each day until the full count is done.
ॐ क्रां क्रीं क्रौं सः भौमाय नमः
Om Kraam Kreem Kraum Sah Bhaumaya Namah
Name mantra
A short mantra of Mangal’s own name, for those who would rather pray than count. The deity worshipped for Mangal is Lord Hanuman.
ॐ मंगलाय नमः
Om Mangalaya Namah · 108 times
Daan
Give what belongs to Mangal, on its day, to someone who needs it. Lal Kitab and the Parashari tradition both count it the gentlest upay.
Vrat
A fast on Tuesday, kept for Hanuman or Kartikeya, steadies the mind and eases Mangal’s troubles.
Ratna
A ratna strengthens Mangal, so it helps only when Mangal is good for your lagna, that is, when it rules houses that work well for that lagna. Wear it only after the kundli is checked: for some lagnas the same stone does harm.
Rudraksha
A rudraksha carries none of a ratna’s risk; it is worn to keep Mangal calm and steady. A bead’s deity goes with its mukhi (the number of lines), so it can differ from the deity worshipped for Mangal above.
