Does Aditya hrudayam stotram end all other negative planetary influences? I witness that this hymn increased my intelligence and I became recognized as a respectable person.

My current worldview is that the human experience aka the body-mind complex is shaped by our current karmic structure, and it has already taken effect when the pain-body manifested in the current reality. So, ending the karmic influence, planetary influence included, is never a complete possibility as long as we are in this material world and in a material body - both of which are products of our karma.
But, all hope is not over! Divine help can reduce or mitigate the ill effects and reduce the severity of experience and this depends on how much divine grace we receive. Extraordinary results require extraordinary efforts. Even great Yogis suffer physically, but their suffering is not perceived at all by them as pain is, at the end of the day, perception. Ramana Maharshi had cancer, and was assumed to be in tremendous pain! His body was, but he never felt it and when the surprised doctor asked, “Yeah, my body’s karma, it is experiencing, but I am not the body or the mind, I am the infinite consciousness, so I experience no pain!”
Aditya or the Sun God is the king of the planets, so he does influence other planets but not entirely. Surya related worship is mainly for ojas (strength, intelligence), victory, success in endeavors and relief from diseases and ailments. Even Aditya Hridayam was recited by Rama to defeat the demon Ravana in the battlefield. So, the answer is yes and no!
However, Surya, when visualized as Surya Narayana, where the power of Sun is assimilated into Vishnu or Narayana, then he will have more control on all the planets. Alternatively, those from Shiva-schools approach the same juxtaposition as Martanda Bhairava.

Is not my attitude was curious question 
I started to be on the path of yoga earlier in life and aldo I meet both sides , people who only chant Om Namah Shivaya and people who chant only Hare Krishna .
What confused me very hard cord Hare Krishna person is whom actually did this attacks on me .
She is strong follower but in the same time she is inviting people for cup of tea and adding poison to it and many other nasty stuff .
I did even ask help from both sides nobody could help at times .

Yeah the whole my religion/god is better than yours is sadly true even within the same religion’s sects.
The deities are never in conflict, just the unrealized followers are 
My work is mostly associated with Hindu, Buddhist, and Daoist deities, but several Angelic, Egyptian, Greek, Afro-Caribbean, and long-forgotten unnamed deities have reached out and given me valuable guidance, which further enforces my belief that beings of light are at harmony with each other.
Also, rather than mantra A is powerful than mantra B, it is usually, practitioner A’s efforts are better than practitioner B. Usually, the power of any mantra lies in how successful one is in activating and perfecting it…

Certain mantras cannot hurt! All of the above mantras of such nature. Certain mantras can be weaponized, but neither hare krishna nor namah shivaya can be weaponized and are hence called universal mantras.
And yes, other mantras like Kali etc., can be used to harm - at the end of the day, these massively powerful mantras can be weaponized, but repercussions soon follow. Every person who has used it to actively harm someone else transgressing someone else’s free will and goes against the nature, backlash is very severe. This is usually the reason why many Tantric practitioners fall in their spiritual work and have to spend lifetimes recovering …
In the case of Hare Krishna mantra etc., if someone wants to harm and hurt others, it is clearly a sign of not fully awakened Krishna Consciousness which is pure love and seeing the self and every aspect of the creation as Krishna. Psychic attacks are not mantric attacks. There are very few capable of perfecting and weaponizing mantras in this day and age.

I don’t know but that truly happened and I’m not only one who got slammed .
Only way I let that person in my house or meet her for hang out was because I believe she truly is serious about her path so I did not expect to be slammed with demon in my living room after she left my apartment. And was so ridiculous because she got annoyed and told me; ahhh you look good !!
Funny not so funny .

There are a lot of variables here… so I cannot comment about specific cases. Also, demons are shit scared of divine energies and dwell only in places where divine grace is lacking.
I don’t believe there were any demons (human tendency to blame most things on demons, spells, psychic attacks, etc., while only 1 of 999 cases are true) in your case either, but assuming there was one, by some minute remote chance, then that would indicate that none of the involved parties were exhibiting any energy associated with Hare Krishna mantra as this mantra, when activated, will immediately repel unholy beings.
Energetically, I do not sense any demon at present or past in your energy system. Just a lack of cultivation and a possible anxiety/depression due to several gray and brown spots in the aura, but nothing malicious thankfully.

The response and solution is very fast when I pray with all my heart.
That we have ways through this & other intercession fields to reach Deities is something I still cannot comprehend consciously. This required lifetimes of devotion & practices

Hello Master Maoshan @Maoshan_Wanderer
My apology for tagging you here because I couldn’t send a PM. So, I wanted to ask for your insight.
Long story short, I met a balinese cultural scholar, he is quite reputable as he was entrusted to guide Jaggi Vasudev a.k.a. Sadhguru about balinese culture and its evolution, during his visit to Bali. I was enquiring him the similarities in regard of Tantra aspect within the culture of Bali and that of Tibetan Buddhist.

I was pointing out that “Tantric aspect of Buddhism become a linking key between syncretism of Buddhism and Hinduism’s Shaiva Tantra within Indonesia, thus result in The Ciwa-Buddha, which currently a denomination of Hinduism concentrated on both the island of Java and Bali.” and then I enquire “So, can it be said that in Bali has utmost similarities with Tibetan Buddhism? or perhaps, influenced by it?”

His reply was intriguing
"Bali is not influenced by Tibet.
The tradition centered in Nalanda split into two, with one branch going to Swarnadwipa-Yawadwipa and the other to Tibet.
Mahayana in Sumatra even became one of the foundational roots of Tibetan Vajrayana. Mahayana in Sumatra also developed in parallel in Bali. The Nalanda tradition is very important to revisit as a reference because many of Nalanda’s texts and manuscripts were preserved in Tibet, where they became a foundation."
I have to respect this person is a knowledgeable scholar of Nusantara (Indonesia), at the same time I have to acknowledge that he is neither from Tibet or a practicioner of Vajrayāna.
His reply sounds very intriguing, but without your clarification, I feel resistance to accept the part of “Mahayana within Sumatra being one of foundational roots of Tibetan Vajrayāna”. I feel like there is more nuance to it right?

Well, Mahayana does form the philosophical basis of Vajrayana and this has been the argument from yore - with various degrees of truth. So perhaps that’s what he meant?

I see, so there are more nuances to it
That’s what I thought. I can somewhat agree that it is a general information that the Vajrayana have philosophical foundation upon Mahayana.
But, you know this geohistory claim about “the philosophy which developed at Sumatra, Indonesia reach the Tibetan” sounds like too far fetched to me. Let alone become a foundational roots.
I practice Hinduism and I love my country ok, but, I have yet to seen historical evidence that state that Nusantara (Indonesia’s name at the past) have any degree of influences such as being foundation root for Tibetan Buddhism.
South East Asian? Sure, but, to reach Tibet? Nah
There is even a Vajrayana practitioner who voices disagreement to scholar’s statement as erroneous.
He further add “Basically, Buddhism that developed in Tibet was indeed influenced by local Tibetan culture. However, whether from the lineage of Nyingma, Kagyu, Sakya, or Gelug traditions, all of them recognize themselves as lineages or parts of Vajrayana Buddhism (instead of that developed on Sumatra Island)”
I mean the disagreement of mine and the practitioner toward said statement of the scholars sounds valid.
The culture scholar folk didn’t even bother to differentiate Mahayana and Vajrayana, let alone Tantrayana and Dzokchen, lol.
