Teenagers today are increasingly getting drawn to occult practices, tantra and mantra. It is quickly becoming a rage. Most feel it is an easy way to fulfill the desires which would otherwise have been impossible.
A mantra to control the person one loves, casting spells to make things work the way one wants, these attractions seem quite alluring to teenagers who want to experiment with paranormal practices.
Pushpanjali Raj, a Class 11 student of DPS R.K Puram, who jumped to her death on Wednesday, is reportedly said to have been talking to to supernatural powers.
Geetanjali Kumar, a counselor, says, mystery behind occult attracts them. Occult science is becoming popular and is being increasingly talked about. The social networking sites and chatrooms provide a forum for teenagers where they open up and talk about the subject.
“Parents provide internet access to their kids but they fail to monitor the sites they visit. Parents should supervise their kids while surfing the net. There should be a connectivity, a hand-holding which is neither suffocating nor intruding. Also brain storming sessions and group discussion for about 15 minutes every day will help the counsellors and teachers to understand the mental state of the child. In Pushpanjali’s case, too, if there had been proper counselling, she would have been alive today.”
The with teenagers getting hooked to the internet and social networking sites, scrapping friends and stranger, is something they routinely follow. Networking sites like Orkut has communities on occult science and supernatural powers. Here are some of the scraps from one such site:
“Shubankara: destroying an enemy by name. Please tell me the safe rituals to destroy a particular enemy,” a boy on a community site called Occult Science asks.
Shubhankara got the following reply for his query.
“Abhishek: Hi Friend, though there are many ways to cause harm to anyone through these practices, let us not discuss it here for two reasons:
1. You are not an expert, if you make a mistake, you won’t be able to correct it. Sometimes, gun backfires!
2. Don’t believe about taking revenge ( I know that’s difficult) but let nature take
its course.
What is your take? Should occult practices be banned?
