In India and around the world, the word “Tantrik” brings both faith and fear. Many people seek tantriks to solve life, family, or spiritual problems. Sadly, some fake tantriks misuse this ancient path for money.
So, how can you identify a genuine tantrik and avoid being cheated?
Let’s explore it step by step.
1. Genuine Tantrik Comes from a Real Spiritual Lineage
A true tantrik does not learn tantra from YouTube or books.
They follow a guru–shishya parampara, a traditional teacher-disciple chain.
- They are guided by a respected guru.
- They receive diksha (spiritual initiation).
- Their practice is disciplined and sacred.
Ramapada Acharjee says: “Tantra is not learned from shortcuts. It is a sacred science passed from guru to disciple. One cannot become a tantrik overnight or by reading books.”
He also explains that real tantriks are often born in Vedic Brahmin families with inherited spiritual energy. It is both knowledge and discipline, not show or superstition.
2. Real Name and Verified Address
A genuine tantrik never hides.
They share their real name, phone number, and address.
- You can meet them in person.
- They don’t keep changing locations.
- Their temple or home is open to seekers.
Fake tantriks hide their identity or disappear after taking money.
Always check whether their name and address are real.
3. Educational Background and Recognition
While tantra is spiritual, a real tantrik is also educated.
They often study Sanskrit, Vedic scriptures, astrology, or philosophy.
Signs of authenticity:
- Real educational degrees or certifications.
- Recognition from known institutions or gurus.
- Sound knowledge of scriptures and rituals.
Warning signs:
- Using fake PhDs or “Dr.” titles from unknown groups.
- Posting fake photos with celebrities for publicity.
- Claiming fake awards or gold medals.
Ramapada Acharjee warns: “Nowadays, people buy degrees and hire event managers to take photos with actors or ministers. This is not spirituality—it is marketing. Verify everything before believing.”
4. Focus on Sadhana, Not Just Money
A genuine tantrik lives for sadhana (spiritual practice), not business.
Real tantriks:
- Accept Dakshina (donation), not high fees.
- Focus on rituals, prayers, and helping people.
- Do not promise “instant results”.
Fake tantriks:
- Ask for huge money before doing anything.
- Use fear to control people.
- Offer “100% guaranteed” solutions in 24 hours.
Ramapada Acharjee says:
“There are 12 Amavasyas and 12 Purnimas in a year. A tantrik cannot perform rituals for hundreds of people every month. True rituals need specific times and deep meditation.”
If someone demands money without proof of work, ask for a receipt or video evidence.
Tantra is not about fire, alcohol, or show—it is about discipline and energy.
5. Simplicity and Discipline in Daily Life
A genuine tantrik lives simply and peacefully.
Their life reflects truth, calmness, and devotion.
Check these signs:
- They perform daily puja and meditation.
- They are polite, not arrogant.
- They live clean and disciplined lives.
No matter how powerful someone claims to be—
if they are addicted to drugs or immoral activities, they cannot be a real tantrik.
You can even ask neighbors or local people about them.
Social media reviews are not enough; fake 5-star reviews can be bought easily.
6. Positive Energy and Honest Guidance
When you meet a real tantrik, you feel peace and clarity.
They give you confidence, not fear.
Real tantriks:
- Spread positive energy.
- Explain problems calmly.
- Guide you toward good karma and meditation.
Fake tantriks:
- Scare you with curses.
- Threaten you for money.
- Create confusion and dependency.
A genuine tantrik uplifts your mind; a fake one drains your hope.
7. Deep Knowledge of Tantra and Scriptures
Tantra is a vast and sacred science.
A real tantrik understands every mantra, ritual, and symbol deeply.
Signs of true knowledge:
- Can explain why and how a ritual works.
- Knows Sanskrit mantras and their meanings.
- Encourages you to learn and understand.
Fake tantriks cannot explain anything. They only say, “Just trust me.”
Never perform rituals blindly—always ask for the purpose and method.
True tantra is knowledge plus devotion, not magic tricks.
8. Genuine Reviews and Recommendations
In today’s digital world, reviews matter—but only real ones.
Check before trusting:
- Look for old reviews with real names or photos.
- Ask previous clients if possible.
- Notice if the tantrik’s name appears in reputed spiritual forums.
Fake tantriks create paid reviews and fake YouTube comments.
A genuine tantrik grows through word of mouth, not paid promotion.
9. Beware of Fake Websites and Online Scams
Fraud tantriks often create websites that look very professional.
They use flashy lines like “100% results in 24 hours” or “No failure guaranteed.”
How to check a genuine tantrik’s website:
- See if the site focuses on spiritual knowledge instead of sales.
- Look for genuine blogs, photos, and transparent contact info.
- Use online tools like scamadviser.com to check trust scores.
- Verify how old the website and phone number are.
Ramapada Acharjee explains:
“Tantra is ancient wisdom. It cannot be updated like technology or sold online. Be careful with ‘online tantra’ sites that claim to do puja over chat or video calls.”
A genuine tantrik may have a website, but it will be simple, informative, and authentic—not full of marketing slogans.
10. Stable Contact Details and Long-Term Presence
Fraud tantriks often change phone numbers and addresses every few months.
That’s how they avoid angry clients or police complaints.
Before trusting anyone:
- Call the same number after a few weeks to see if it still works.
- Check how long they’ve been at the same address.
- See if their Google Business profile or reviews are consistent.
A genuine tantrik usually stays in one place for years and keeps the same contact details.
Consistency shows honesty.
11. Simplicity and Truth Above All
The final and most important sign—simplicity and truth.
A true tantrik is humble, peaceful, and honest.
They guide you toward light, not fear.
Ramapada Acharjee shares:
“If a person fails in their own life, how can they help others?
If someone cannot manage their own family, how can they do vashikaran for others?”
He adds that he has kept everything transparent in 32 years of practice.
A real tantrik has nothing to hide.
If any tantrik feels hurt by these truths, we sincerely apologize—but truth must be said for the safety of seekers.
