Description

A curse is any expressed wish that some form of adversity or misfortune will befall or attach to one or more persons, a place, or an object. In particular, "curse" may refer to such a wish or pronouncement made effective by a supernatural or spiritual power, such as a god or gods, a spirit, or a natural force, or else as a kind of spell by magic or witchcraft; in the latter sense, a curse can also be called a hex or a jinx. In many belief systems, the curse itself is considered to have some causative force in the result. To reverse or eliminate a curse is sometimes called "removal" or "breaking", as the spell has to be dispelled, and often requires elaborate rituals or prayers.

शाप ही कोणतीही व्यक्त केलेली इच्छा असते की एक किंवा अधिक व्यक्ती, ठिकाण किंवा वस्तू यांच्यावर काही प्रकारचे संकट किंवा दुर्दैव येईल किंवा संलग्न होईल. विशेषतः, "शाप" म्हणजे देव किंवा देवता, आत्मा किंवा नैसर्गिक शक्ती यासारख्या अलौकिक किंवा आध्यात्मिक शक्तीद्वारे प्रभावी केलेल्या अशा इच्छा किंवा उच्चाराचा संदर्भ असू शकतो किंवा अन्यथा जादूचा एक प्रकार किंवा जादूटोणा असतो. बऱ्याच विश्वास प्रणालींमध्ये, शाप स्वतःच परिणामात काही कारक शक्ती असल्याचे मानले जाते. शाप उलट करणे किंवा काढून टाकणे याला कधीकधी "काढणे" किंवा "ब्रेकिंग" असे म्हटले जाते, कारण शब्दलेखन काढून टाकावे लागते आणि अनेकदा विस्तृत विधी किंवा प्रार्थना आवश्यक असतात.
