Rituals in India- Alteration of soul
Almost in every
village of Rajasthan, where tradition and culture is the root of society and even
at present in the age of technology, people maintain their customs and rituals
with great care, without using reasoning and science. One of the most important
custom of this colorful and courageous land is “Bhav” a transporting of soul of a dead in a living body,
suppressing the original soul in the body for some time and talk to people and
also suggest something good and also warn them for consequences.
The Bhav comes when
mostly the dead souls wanted to communicated to their people about their deeds.
Generally these souls are angry while sitting somewhere, either in hell on in
paradise or just roaming all around the world, that no one knows and nor these
souls uttered anything about their dwelling places. They incarnate in a living
body and then give advises to the community or to the family.
Interestingly these
souls only transmit in woman and woman start rotating their head from left to
right, which is common in every women who have this bhav, their voice also
change from female to male and they show their anger that they have to come in
this world just because of these fools who are doing wrong things. When bhav
came to a woman, people start gathering and offers things to her. She, the soul
transmitted, asked for certain man of the village and he summoned immediately
and the soul shout on that man to improve his deeds, whatever the wrong he had
done or is doing.
After the scolding,
people gather on the spot and start asking questions about their future and
about the family member, the soul transmitted in the body of woman knows
everyone in the village and call them by their names and also what wrong they
had done. The soul also states its identity that it is a soul of certain person
died on certain date.
People are curious to
know about their future and then soul answers some of them and then leaves the
body. The transformation process made the subject tired, the woman in which it
came and therefore the woman fainted for some hours. When she arose from the
deep sleep she remembers nothing and feels fainted and weak. The woman who
becomes subject for the dead people’s soul is honored in the society and people
respect her in village as the ‘mata’ mother came in her body.
People who witnessed
such transmission states that the features of the woman changed drastically and
her eyes went big and she shout in the men’s voice. The soul knew each and
everything which people asked even secrets which people wanted to bury in their
hearts. There is no research yet made on this phenomena of transmission of
souls of dead people but experts said that it is a psychological disease or
personality split in which woman can lost its individuality and sub conscious
play important part and scold the person to whom on she is angry or wanted to
take revenge. The sub consciousness repeats all those deeds which she was
thinking continuously and cannot speak in normal life.
The Ojhas and tantriks
or magicians are responsible to deal with such situations. This transformation
of soul from one body to another is so common phenomena that it is called “Mata
ana’ coming of goddess in a woman.
