RÜL protection amulets are produced in accordance with the Wrathful Deity Maha Vajrabhairava (Tib. Dorje Jikje) (Yamantaka) ritual of the Buddhist Tantra. A product of an intense series of incantation, meditation, and other rituals, these RÜLs are relied upon for their efficacy in eliminating negative obstacles, adversities, and problems which are beyond human ability to resolve. In particular, they provide protection from illness and diseases, arguments and lawsuits, and failure, loss, and bankruptcy on socio-economic fronts. In various Tantric Buddhist communities, families and individuals preserve RÜLs in their homes to dispel the influence of black magic, harmful curses, and negative influences from both humans and non-humans.
These RÜL amulets are blessed and infused with power through rituals organized by Geshe Lama Konchok and performed by monks, who are trained ritualists from the Gyudmed Tantric Monastery. Ingredients include pure medicinal herbs, sacred substances, and mantra and incantation texts, all purified and infused with protection power by way of rites, rituals, and meditation.
These RÜL amulets are normally wrapped in clothes or metal cases and concealed mandatorily in a clean area. The ideal places are to hide it in one’s house, inside walls, or behind images and texts on one’s altar. However, in times of difficulties or when stricken by harm or possessed by negative influences, one can wear it on the body preferably anywhere above one’s waistline. While wearing RÜLs or when in its vicinity, one must avoid all negative thoughts, unethical behaviour, and harmful actions.
