TO STOP SLANDER OR GOSSIP At night, light a small fire in a cauldron or whatever you have available to contain the fire. Write on a piece of paper that is 3" x 3" the word RUMORS and the rumors that are being spread about you. Do not write the names of those who are slandering you. You do not want to harm then and suffer the consequences with karma. Be thinking of these lies going away never to return as you draw an X with a dark marker across the paper. Toss the paper into the fire and repeat the following words 3 timesÖ "Rumors, slander, standing stout, with this X, I cross you out. I toss their words into the fire, All these lies no longer hire All bad things done and said, Leave my life, be gone, be dead! All the evil that they say, Make it all go away! Rumors carry me no more, Be gone, be dead, be no more! SO MOTE IT BE!" Sit and concentrate for a few minutes on all the bad gossip going away. The extinguish the fire.
