What is Kalsarpa Yog?
This happens when there are all planets coming between Rahu and Ketu. This results in failure and dejection. because all the karyas don?t happen accordingly to the efforts put in. often leading to negativity, and inferiority complex. This vidhi done by vaidik procedure is very effective although very simple. There is a special pooja to be done which can be done at our place. or you can get this pooja done at your place, we are open for help regarding the pooja. The Kal Sarp Yoga is formed when all the planets are situated between Rahu & Ketu.

hi, this is manoj,i want to visit trimbakeshwar and just looking for information and i came to your blog..it really helped me alot to find the information..
thanks for post...
Inside the trimbakeshwar temple there is rampant pickpocketing taking place. the pickpocketers are non other than the people who are managing the pilgrims in front of the diety (where the pilgrim see the diety). They are supposed to help the pilgrims, but they do opposite. The guards and these people are a gang, they confuse the pilgrim in the guise of explaining about the deity, offering prasad to the pilgrim etc and jointly do pickpocketing. It is known to all the police there.
No one should take more than Rs.100 (small notes of 10 ruppes) as it is very likely that they will not come out of the temple with money if they take more. These guards / monitoring people are expert pickpocketers. I do not know why the government / management committe of temple do not take note of this and take action on them.
It is best that military personnel are assigned this work so that the pilgrims can save themselves of this big menance there. In the name of God they are carrying out day light robbery.
