Rişhi: Virūpa Āngirasa (RV 8.75.9)
mā
naĥ samasya dūdhyaĥ paridveşhaso amhatiĥ, ūrmir-na nāvamā vadhīt.
Let not calamity from every evil-thought
hostile around smite us, like a billow smites a ship.
Thought has a force, especially when it is
backed up by persistence and intensity. It is a condensed
formation of vibrations which goes forth in the atmosphere
carrying the impulses for good or evil as charged at its source.
It tends to effectuate itself unless it is met by
counter-formations in its course and neutralized. Thoughts of
evil-minded beings whether human or non-human—are particularly
dangerous because they receive ready support and backing from the
established and reigning forces of Ignorance and Falsehood in the
general environment. They can be effectively countered by invoking
the aid of benevolent Powers in the cosmos, the Gods who are the
hosts of Light and Truth.
