Whenever it has energized the offerings which need to differ from yantra to yantra. The effect and the activation of it will be felt by the body and mind within a very short period after you wear it. The amulets and talismans which I energize are not caught for foulness because they are energized by the chants of foul removal (kili harana mantra).
