How this remedy works
Mantra is the safest of the classical remedies: it can be started today, costs nothing, and cannot be worn against the chart the way a stone can. The Sankhya — the prescribed number of repetitions — is completed over weeks, beginning with one mala of 108 a day and building up. Sincerity matters more than arithmetic.
The Shukra mantra is chanted on Friday, often with the Mahalakshmi mantra — Lakshmi is the Venus-aligned deity of beauty and marital harmony.
