Slok 85

Listen

If they become inflicted by a spirit or ghostly apparition, My disciples must chant the mantra of Narayan Kavach, or the Hanuman mantra, but they must never resort to using the spells, mantra or incantations of another deity who has a lower status than these. ||85||

Here, the Lord is referring to the cruel practice that is rife amongst the ignorant. When faced by any calamity, they immediately believe that an evil spirit is the cause of this harassment. Frauds and swindlers take advantage of this naivety and exploit their misfortunes. Lord Swaminarayan says that one must never resort to such deception, but they should have an unfaltering faith in the almighty divine Lord.
