A totka refers to a minor upaya or an act done with the intention that good results follow. Of course this might seem to be a very vague definition since all karmas are actions and performed with a purpose. Yet if you think bit deeply you can see the difference.
In our everyday life you will see that many times we do activities not for some specific purpose but just like that. On the other hand totkas are done with pre conceived notion so are more useful because of the mind energy behind it, provided your mind is focussed enough.
Important Note: most people associate totkas with vashikaran or black magic since in general usage the word is used more in combination with tona-totka which is considered to be a part of the ulterior practices for achieving selfish ends usually at the cost of hurting others. But here we DO NOT mean to say the word totka in that sense but in the form of small upayas for self benefit without any harm to others
So let us find out about a few general totkas which nearly anyone and everyone can do to obtain good results. Please note that they are spelled out in a random manner as and when they come to mind. Their could be hundreds of such totkas which we will keep adding to the list. In case you want to add your own totka from experience or knowledge of your elders please send us via contact us form and will add it here after duly considering it.
