Kalsarpa Dosha Remedy: Visit These Temples

By

Kalsarpa Dosha or Kalsarpa Yog is found in some birth charts and considered to be mostly inauspicious. It is believed to be caused by one of the twelve types of snakes affecting the birth chart, as mentioned in the Hindu scriptures. However, it is not always considered to be inauspicious, and the effects might be negligible as well. But it becomes problematic when its presence brings a lot of negative effects with it.
