โหราศาสตร์พระเวท(ภารตะ)

ADHYAYA 1- PADA 2


SU. 1-Adhaswamsograhanam. Having determined the Atmakaraka from among
the several planets, ascertain the results of his Navamsa position.

NOTES Among all the planets commencing from Ravi, find out who gets
the greatest number of degrees and minutes and determine. as
principles already explained, who becomes the Atmakaraka. In Sutra 11
of the first pada it has been clearly enunciated that whichever planet
gets the highest number of degrees and minutes, he becomes the
Atmakaraka. Such a planet, whoever he may be among the nine planets,
must occupy some Navamsa. In all the future sutras, the effects of
such Navamsa occupied by the Atmakaraka, the planets who are there and
the planets who aspect such Navamsa will be clearly detailed. Find out
by mathematical calculations the position of all the planets in
degrees and minutes and then the results can easily be foretold in the
light of the following sutras. Find out the Atmakaraka and place him
in the proper Navamsa. Prepare also the Navamsa Chakra correctly.


SU. 2.-Panchamooshikamarjaraha. If the Atmakaraka occupies Mesha
Navamsa, then the person will be subjected to the fears and bites of
rats, cats, and other similar animals.

NOTES Pancha means one or Mesha. Pa stands for 1 in Pavarga. Cha
stands for 6 in the Tavarga. Thus we get 16, reading in the reverse
order we get 61. Divide this by 12 we get the remainder 1 and this
stands for the first sign in the Zodiac or Mesha Navamsa.


SU. 3.--Tathra chatushpadaha. If Atmakaraka is in Taurus Navamsa,
there will be fear from quadrupeds.

NOTES Ta means 6 and Ra means 2 or 62 reversed we get 26, divided by
1.2 we get 2 remainder which means the 2nd house from Mesha or
Vrishabha Navamsa. If Atmakaraka occupies Vrishabha Navamsa the person
will have gains and happiness from quadrupeds like cattle, horses,
elephants, etc. Some commentators say he will have troubles and
worries through them. I think. when Atmakaraka is weak or has evil
aspects or associations troubles should be predicted. Others write
prosperity from them.


SU. 4. Mrithyow kandooh sthotilyam cha. If Atmakaraka occupies Mithuna
the person will suffer from corpulence, itches and cutaneous
eruptions.

NOTES . Ma represents 5 and Ya represents 1 or 51 reading inversely we
get 15. Divided by 12 we have the balance of 3 and this represents the
3rd Navamsa from Mesha or Mithuna.


SU. 5. -Dure jalakushtadih. If the Atmakaraka occupies Kataka Navamsa,
dangers and troubles come from watery places and leprosy.

NOTES Da stands for 8 and Ra represents for 2 or 82. Reversing it, we
have 28. Divided by 12 we get the balance of 4 and this refers to
Kataka as the fourth from Mesha. Dirty form of leprosy or watery
disease rises from blood corruption and the use of filthy water.


SU. 6. --Seshaha s wapadan i. If the Atmakaraka joins Simha Navamsa,
troubles will come through dogs and such canine animals.

NOTES Ssa represents 5 and Sha indicates 6 or 56, reading backwards we
have 65. Divided by 12 we get 5 remainders and Simha counts as the 5th
from Mesha. Here in all these Sutras the class of animals or diseases
is indicated and the reader has to use his intelligence.


SU. 7. Mrithyuvajjayognikanascha. If Atmakaraka is in Kanya Navamsa,
the native will suffer from fire, itches, and corpulence.

NOTES Ja represents 8 and ya denotes 1. We get 81, in the reverse
order we get 18, divided by 12 have the balance 6 and Kanya Navamsa
represents the 6th from Mesha. If the Atmakaraka joins Kanya Navamsa
the person will suffer from the troubles indicated by the 3rd Rasi or
Mithuna and also from fires. But in Mithuna the author only said that
suffering will come from corpulence and itches. From this Sutra it
means that in the Mithunamsa there will also be trouble from tires.


SU. 8. -Labhe vanijyam. If the Atmakaraka joins Thula Navamsa, the
person will make much money by merchandise.

NOTES La denotes 3 and Bha stands for 4, this stands as 34. In the
reverse order it is 43, divided by 12 we get 7 as the remainder. Thula
stands as the 7th Navamsa from Mesha. The various kinds of articles in
merchandise have to be found out by the nature of the Rasi, its lord,
the planets who are in conjunction and the aspects they have.


SU. 9.-Arrajalasareesrupaha sthanyachanischa. If the Atmakaraka joins
Vrischikamsa, the person will have fears and dangers from watery
animals, snakes and he will also have no milk from his mother. Atra:Aa
O-Ra 2-02, reversed it means 20 divided by 12 we get a balance of 8
which signifies Vrischika counting from Mesha Navamsa. When he is a
child he will have to be nursed and suckled by others for want of milk
in his mother's breast. There are some women who have plenty of milk
in their breasts and who nurse their children with their own milk and
sometimes the milk will be sufficient for even two or three children.
Their breasts may not be large or heavy but their lacteal glands do
make brisk work and secrete milk.

There are, on the other hand, a large number of women who have large
lumps of breasts without any milk, but full of flesh and making the
breasts attractive and heavy. The author apparently considers that the
absence of milk in the mother will be a misfortune for the child The
artificial feeding of children from nipples attached to feeding
bottles has removed this misfortune, to some extent. Remember it is
not the mother who feeds the infant. A rubber bottle is not a mother's
holy breast. Nor does it contain the natural milk of the mother with
the maternal love and affection pervading throughout its contents.

SU. 10. - Same vahanaducchaccha kramatpatanam. If the Atmakaraka joins
the Navamsa of Dhanus, the person will have suffering and dangers from
falls, .from conveyances, horses, etc., and also from elevated places
like trees, houses, hills and mountains.

NOTES Sa denotes 7, Ma shows 5, 75 reading reversely we have 57,
divided by, 12 will give us a balance of 9 and Dhanus is the 9th
Navamsa from Mesha. Aeroplanes may be safely included in these falls.
Dangers are indicated by these falls.


SU. 11.-Jalachara khechara kheta kandu dushtagranthayascha riphay. If
the Atmakaraka joins Makara the person will have troubles and sorrows
from aquatic animals from fierce birds, skin diseases, large wounds
and glandular expansions.

NOTES Ri 2 and Pha 2 = 22, divide this by 12 we have a remainder of
10, meaning Makaramsa as it is the 10th from Meshamsa. There will be
troubles from Khetas. Grahas have two important significations, viz.,
planets and evil spirits : some read the sutra as Buchara instead of
Khechara, and include such wild animals as lions, tigers, boars and
other fierce animals found wandering on the earth. Planets and evil
spirits occupy the higher regions. Kha means the sky or the higher
sphere.


SU. 12.--Tatakadayo dharmay. If the Atmakaraka occupies Kumbha Navamsa
the person will do charities in the shape of constructing wells,
tracks, topes or gardens, temples and dharmasalas or chatrams,

NOTES Dha stands for 9 and Ma denotes 5, thus we get 95 reversing we
get 59. Divided by 12 we get remainder 11, denoting Kumbha, the
Navamsa 11 th from Mesha.


SU. 13.-Uchhe dharmanityata kaivalyam cha. If the Atmakaraka occupies
Meenamsa, the person will be fond of vinuous deeds and charities, and
will take residence in Swargadi Lokas or will attain to the final
bliss or what is called by the Sanskrit writers Moksha or final
emancipation or freedom from rebirths.

NOTES U stands for 0, Cha denotes 6, we get 06, reading in the reverse
order we get 60. Divide this by 12 the balance will be 12 and
therefore Meena Navamsa is indicated by the term uchcha. Among the
Yogis and real Vedantists their sole aim or final goal is to get rid
of these punarjanmas or constant birth and get final assimilation with
Para Brahma. The old commentators have offered some valuable
suggestions. I shall quote them here for ready reference. If the
Atmakaraka is in a beneficial Navamsa or if beneficial planets are in
Kendras from the Navamsa he occupies' the person will become very
wealthy or a ruler.

If the next planet to Atmakaraka occupies a beneficial sign or
Navamsa, or found in his own house or beneficial sign or in exaltation
or in good Navamsas, he will have residence, after death, in
Swargalokas according to merit. If both of them are auspiciously
situated, the person will get good Bliss and after a prosperous and
happy career will go to Heaven. If they have mixed positions,
conjunctions and aspects, he will have some good and some bad. If both
of them are badly situated combined and aspected, he will suffer
miseries, poverty and will take residence, after death, in various
Hells enumerated in the Hindu Sastras like Kumbhipatha, Andha,
Tamisra, etc. There are fourteen Lokas mentioned and principally three
namely Swarga tenanted by the Devatas who are headed by Indra, Bhuloka
inhabited by mortals called Martya, and Patala inhabited by special
creatures called Nagas. A person in Gandharva or Siddhaloka is not so
happy as one in Indra Loka.

One who resides in Brahmaloka enjoys superior Bliss to that which he
can have in Devaloka. When evil planets predominate the temperament
will be mixed and his deeds will be bad and sinful. When benefics
predominate they produce favourable results both here and also enhance
his pleasure in Heaven after his death. As for the comparison of
pleasures, see Anandavalli Upanishad and also numbers 11 and 12 Of
VOL. 19 Of THE ASTROLOGICAL MAGAZINE.


SU. 14.-Tatra ravou rajakaryaparaha. If the Sun occupies the
Karakamsa, the person will be fond of public service and will work in
political activities.

NOTES Here it means, that Ravi must be in conjunction with the
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa. His success here may be determined both by
the nature of the Navamsa and also by his relation to the Atmakaraka
who may change to be his friend, bosom friend, neutral or enemy or
bitter enemy. All these different stages are suggested by the
Maharishi in compliance with the general principles of Astrology,
which he enumerates.


SU. 15. -Poornendusukrayorbhogee vidyajeevee cha. If Full Moon and
Venus join Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the person will command great
wealth and all comforts attendant on wealth and he will also earn
money and live by the profession of education.

NOTES In all these the strength, position and association of
Atmakaraka will have great influence in determining the rank and
position in the line. A school authority will be great or small as he
gets fat or low salary. Ii.


SU. 16.-Dhatuvadee kountayudho vahnijeevee cha bhoume. When Kuja joins
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the person becomes great in the preparation
of various medical mixtures, will bear arms like kuntayudha and other
weapons, and live by profession involving preparations in or near
fire.

NOTES The gunners, cooks, engine drivers and those engaged in various
preparations in or near fire are indicated. Alchemy comes in this line
of work.


SU. 17.-yanijatantuvayaha silpino vyavaharavidascha soumye. If Budha
conjoins the Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the persons become merchants,
weavers and manufacturers of clothes, artists and persons clever in
preparing curios, and those well versed in the affairs of social and
political matters.

SU. 18.-Kairmagnunanishta vedavidascha jeevay. When Guru joins the
Navamsa with Atmakaraka, the person will be well versed in Vedic or
religious rituals, will have religious wisdom, well known in the rules
of sacrificial functions and will have good knowledge in Vedanta and
will be a religious man. .

SU. 19.-Rajakeeyaha kaminaha satendriyascha sttkre. . If Sukra joins
the Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, the person will become a great official
or political personage, will be fond of many women and will retain
vitality and sexual passions till he is hundred years old.

NOTES He will be fond of women and sexual pleasures and in spite of
these sexual excesses he will retain passions for a very long period.
. Sexual passions are as various and as curious as any other
phenomena. Some get prematurely old and lose their sexual vitality.
Other retain sexual vigour for more than a hundred years.


SU. 20.--Prasiddhakarma jeevaha sanow. If Sani joins Atmakaraka in the
Navamsa, he will produce a famous person in his own line of business.

NOTES The author apparently means that when Sani joins the Atmakaraka
in the Navamsa, a person will be able to achieve greatness -and
reputation in whatever walk of life he may be engaged. There are great
writers, painters. sculptors, speakers, merchants, warriors,
statesmen, travellers, inventors, discoverers, scientists, musicians
and so forth, the profession or line of work being determined by other
combinations in the horoscope. Sani with the Atmakaraka in the Navamsa
lifts the person to a high position in that line and gives him great
reputation and name.


SU. 21.-Dhanushkaschouvrascha jangalikalohayantrinascha rahow. It Rahu
joins the Atmakaraka in Navamsa the person will live by the skilful
use of warlike instruments, he will earn bread as thief and dacoit; he
becomes a doctor dealing in poisons, manufacturer of gold, silver,
copper and other metallic machinery

SU. 22.--Gajavyavaharinaschourrascha kethau. 'When Ketu joins the
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa the persons born under such combination
trade in elephants or become thieves and robbers.

NOTES Between thieves and dealers in elephants the line of demarcation
seems to be delicate.


SU. 23. -Ravirahubhyam sarpanidhranam. If Ravi and Rahu join
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa the person dies by snake-bites.


NOTES Snakes are of. various kinds and the nature of the causes will
be determined by other planetary positions.


SU. 24. -Subhadrislhte thannivrittihi. If benefics aspect the Yoga
mentioned above, there will be no deaths from snake-bites.

NOTES He may have snake-bites, but relief proper will be at hand and
the person will get over the danger.


SU. 25.-Subhamatrasambandhajjjanagulikaha. If Ravi and Rahu join
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa and have only beneficial aspects the person
will have no snake-bites, but will become a doctor who deals solely in
poisonous matters.

SU. 26-Kujarnatradrishtegrihadahako agnido va. If Ravi and Rahu join
Atmakaraka in the Navamsa, and have the evil aspect of Kuja, the
person will burn houses or lend fire and other help to the
incendiaries.

NOTES There is some difference in the guilt of the person who burns a
house and one who helps him in his diabolical deeds.


SU. 27.-Stukradrish te na dahaha. If Ravi and Rahu join Atmakaraka in
the Navamsa and have the aspect of Sukra, the person will not burn the
houses himself, but will lend fire to the rogues who do it.

NOTES The abettor is equally culpable in the eye of law and the
delicate difference of burning the house and lending fire to burn the
house, seems to be a nice point for consideration of the Dharmasastras
and legal luminaries.


SU. 28.-Gurudrishte twasameepagrihat. If Ravi and Rahu join Atmakaraka
in the Navamsa, but have the aspect of Guru alone, the person will
burn houses at a distance from his own house. N OT ES Apparently
Sukra's aspect will intensify the evil tendencies and aggravate the
offences, by burning houses close to one's own house.

SU. 29. - Sagulike vishado vishahato va. If the Karaka Navamsa falls
in Gulikakala or the time governed by Gulika, the person will
administer poison to others and kill them or be killed by such
administrations of poison by others.

NOTES Here we have to learn what is meant by Gulikakala and the time
governed by him. Ravi, Chandra, Kuja, Budha Guru, Sukra and Sani are
called Grahas. They have Upagrahas or their sons. Sukra and Chandra
have not been given any Upagrahas. The latter are Sani - Gulika, Guru-
Yamaghantaka, Kuja-Mritya, Ravi-Kala and Budha-Ardhaprahara. Divide
the duration of the day by 8 and proceed to count from the lord of the
day. Take Sunday and suppose the *duration of the day is 30 ghatis.
Then each part gets 30/8 or 3.75 ghatis. The first 3.75 ghatis are
governed by Ravi the lord of that day. The second 3.75 ghatis are
under the rule of Chandra. The third 3.75 ghatis are governed by Kuja.
The fourth 3.75 ghatis are under the lordship of Budha. The fifth 3.75
ghatis are ruled by Guru. The sixth 3.75 ghatis are under Sukra. The
seventh 3.75 ghatis are ruled by Sani. The 8th 3.75 ghatis have no
lord and Gulika who is next to Sani becomes the lord.

These 3.75 ghatis are called Gulikakala and if the Atmakaraka Navamsa
falls in this time, the results above named must be predicted. 3.75
ghatis is called a Yama in Sanskrit. * If the duration of day is more
or less than 30 ghatis than each part is indicated by the actual
duration of day divided by 8. Take Chandrawara or Monday. First
Chandra 3.75 ghatis. Fourth Guru 3.75 ghatis Second Ku a 3 " Fifth
Sukra " .Third Budha 3.75 " Sixth Sani 3z " ..All these six give 22.5
ghatis Seventh Gulika 3.75 ghatis Eighth Ravi 3.5 " After this comes
in Gulikakala extending from 22.5 ghatis on Monday and lasting upto
26.25 ghatis. On Tuesday or Kujawara we commence from Kuja thus : 1.
Kuja 3.75 ghatis 5. Sani 3.75 ghatis 2. Budha 33 " 6. Gulika 3.75 " 3.
Guru 3.75 " 7. Ravi 3.75 " 4. Sukra 3.75 " 8. Chandra 3.75 "

The first 5 yamas give us l8.75 ghatis. From that time till 22.5
ghatis after sunrise, there will be Gulikakala and if the Atmakaraka
Navamsa falls in this, the evil results indicated above will happen.
The Gulikakala has been so stated by the commentators. I have another
authority for the Gulikakala. Mandapan watapariansam chaturgunyam
dwihinakam.Tatkala gulikognayaha sarva karya vinasakritu. Count from
Saturday to the weekday required. Take the number so obtained and
multiply it by four. Then take or deduct 2 from the number so
obtained. Then Gulikakala commences at the time and continues upto
3.75 ghatis more. The results differ in these two systems. Take Monday
and find out the Gulikakala as per the above rule. Monday counts as
the 3rd from Saturday. Multiply this 3 by 4 and we get 12. Deduct two
out of that and we get 1Q ghatis. Gulika kala falls on Monday from
22.5 ghatis to 2G.25 ghatis after sunrise.

The process to find out the Gulikakala in the night is thus stated by
the old commentators. Take the fifth planet from the lord of the
weekday arid count from him and then the 8th in the order given above
will be Gulikakala. Take for example Sunday, the 5th from him is Guru.
Now take Guru. Dropping Guru we have Sukra and Sani covering the first
and second period, and the 3rd period falls under Gulika on Monday.
the second period on Tuesday, the 8th period on Wednesday, the 7th on
Thursday, the 6th on Friday and the 5th on Saturday. When there are
differences of opinion on such matters among the old writers we have
to look to the opinion of the best among them, and to verify and
support the theory we must also bring our large experience to help us
in such interpretations. Take Hora, Varahamihira and his school. Say,
that in odd signs the first Hora is governed by Ravi and the second by
Chandra.

In the even signs the first is governed by Chandra and the second by
Ravi. But there is a different school. Some say that first Hora is
governed by the lord of the house and the second by the lord of the
11th. In Drekkana more than two systems are recommended. Varahamihira
says the lords of the three Drekkanas are the lords of 1st, 5th and
9th. There are some others who say that the lords of the 3 Drekkanas
are the lords of 1st, 12th and 11 th houses. There are some others who
say that in chara or movable signs, the lords of the Drekkanas are the
owners of the 1st, 5th and 9th. But in fixed and double bodied signs
their order is quite changed. In all such cases of difference of
opinion among the Maharishis I cannot pretend to say which is correct
and which is not. Both may be correct as the authors, by their Divya
Drishti, may have approached from different directions and may have
found their observations proving quite true.

I leave the readers to judge of these differences in the light of
their intelligence, knowledge and personal experiences. When two
Maharishis differ I must frankly tell my readers that I have no means
at my command to ascertain which is better and more correct. Both of
them are Mahatmas and both looked into these details by their Divya
Drishti or expanded mental vision. I possess no such Divya Drishti and
therefore am not in a position to go beyond the phenomena and
ascertain the true causes. I have to trust the learned commentators.


SU. 30. - Chandrudrishtau chorapahritadharnaschouro va. If Chandra
aspects the Atmakaraka Navamsa falling in Gulikakala, the person will
be a receiver of stolen property or will become himself a thief.

NOTES I think there is not much difference between the moral and
spiritual offences between these two worthies.


SU. 31.- Budhamatradrishte brihadbeejaha. If the Atmakaraka Navamsa
falls in Gulikakala and possesses only the aspect of Budha, the person
will have enlarged testicles.

NOTES Here Budha alone must aspect the Navamsa without the aspect of
any other planets. Hydrocele is a nasty form of disease and disgusting
before the public.


SU. 32. -Tathra kethow papadrishte karnachchedaha kurnarogo va. If
Ketu joins the Atmakaraka Navamsa the person will have his ears cut
off or will have serious ear complaints.

SU. 33.-Sukradrishte deekshitaha. If Atmakaraka and Ketu in the
Navamsa, have the aspect of Sukra, the person will become a Deekshita
or performer of Yagnyas or religious sacrifices.

NOTES Formerly such persons were held in high esteem. They had to lead
scrupulously clean, simple and holy lives.


SU. 34.-Buidhasanidrishte nirveeryaha If the Atmakaraks with Ketu in
the Navamsa has the aspects of Budha and Sani, the bind of an impotent
or eunuch should be predicted.

NOTES Veerya is virility in a person and one who has no veerya is
impotent.


SU. 35.-Btrdhasukradrishte pounah puniko dasipttree va. If the
Karakamsa Rasi with Ketu has the aspect of Sukra and Budha, the person
will talk repeating and repeating the same ideas or will be the son of
a prostitute or dancing woman.

NOTES Dasees are a special class of dancing women who were devoted to
the service of Gods in the temples and had no strictness in sexual
matters.


SU. 36. -Sanidrishte tapaswee preshyo va. If the Karakamsa with Ketu
has the aspect of Sani, he will become a Tapaswi or recluse or be a
dependent and servant under somebody.

NOTES There is a great gulf of difference between the position of a
man devoting all his energies on the contemplation of God and one who
is dependent on others. Why both the results are ascribed to the same
combination is not clear.


SU. 3 7. - Sanimatradrish te sanyasabhasaha. If in the above
combination there is only the aspect of Sani and there is no other
planetary aspect, he will put on the appearance of a sanyasi but will
not be a true or real sanyasi. He will be an impostor.

SU. 38.-Tatra ravisukradrishte rajapreshyah. If Ravi and Sukra aspect
the Karakamsa the person will be employed by royal or political
personages to do their work. He will be their confident.

SU. 39. - Ripphe budhe budhedrishte va mandavat. If the tenth from the
Karaka Navamsa possesses the aspect of Budha, he will get similar
results as have been given by Sani.

NOTES This means that the person will follow some notable profession.
Ripha means, Ra 2, pha means 2 = 22 divided by 12, will give us 10,
10th house is indicated by Ripha.


SU. 40.-Shzubhadrishte stheyaha. If in the 10th from Karakamsa, there
is beneficial aspect, the person will be one of great determination
and never capricious.

NOTES The other benefics are Guru and Sukra. It cannot mean anything
else.


SU. 41.-Ravow gurumatradrishzte gopalahu. If the 10th from the
Karakamsa, there is Ravi possessing only the aspect of Guru and no
other aspects, the person will have success through the sales of cow,
bulls and other cattle.

SU. 42.-Dare chandrasukradigyogatprasadaha. If the lord of the 4th
from the Karakamsa is joined or aspected by Chandra and Sukra, the
person will be blessed with storeyed houses.

NOTES Da means 8, Ra means 2 = 82, reversed it means 28, divided by 12
we get 4 balance. This shows signs of wealth. Prasada means houses
with compounds,


SU. 43.- Ucchagrahe api. If the fourth from the Karakamsa is occupied
by an exalted planet, the person will have many fine and splendid
houses.

SU. 44. - Rahusan ibhyam silagriham: If the fourth from the Karakamsa
is occupied by Rahu and Sani, the houses will be constructed with
rough stones not well plastered.

SU. 45. -KujaKetubhyamaishtikam. If the 4th from Karakamsa is occupied
by Kuja and Ketu, the houses will be constructed of bricks, lumps of
earth.

SU. 46. -Guruna daravam. If the 4th from Karakamsa is occupied by Guru
wooden houses will be constructed by the native.

SU.47. - Tharnamravina. If the 4th is occupied by the Sun, the houses
will be constructed from thatch and grasses.

NOTES The above three sutras give an idea of the nature of the house
property possessed by different persons depending upon the
dispositions of planets with reference to Karakamsa.


SU. 48.-Same shubhayogaddharmanityaha satyavaadee gtinubhaktascha. If
the 9th from Karakamsa is occupied or aspected by benefics, the person
will have truth as his ideal and motto. He will be righteous in
conduct, lover of truth and will be faithful and dutiful to elders,
preceptors and Gurus.

NOTES Sa stands for 7 and Ma denotes 5 - 75, reversed it is 57,
divided by 12, we get a remainder of 9. Sama means 9th from Karakamsa.
Ninth is the house of piety and represents devotion and faith in Gods
and Goddesses.


SU. 49.-A nyatha papaihi. If the 9th from Karakamsa has evil
conjunction or aspects, he will be quite the reverse in character. He
will be a liar, uncharitable and sinful, and will have no faith and
respect for Gurus and elders.

SU. 50.-Sanirahubhyam gutrudrohaha. If Sani and Rahu occupy or aspect
the 9th from Karakamsa, the person will become ungrateful to Gurus and
will prove a traitor to them.

NOTES Cheating is a sin. But there are many grades and its heinousness
depends upon the nature of the parties concerned.


SU. 51.-Ravigurubhyam girovavisvasaha. If Guru and Ravi occupy or
aspect the 9th from Karakamsa, he will not love his parents, elders
and preceptors.

SU. 52.-Tatra bhrigwongaraka varge paradarikaha. If the 9th from
Karakamsa falls in one of the shadvargas of Sukra and Kuja, he will be
fond of others' wives.

NOTES There are two classes of villains. One set taking sexual
gratifications with women of immoral tendencies and another set always
tempting the wives of other persons, and ruining their families.
Adultery is sinful, but even here there are various grades of sins.
`Shadvargas are (1 ) Lagna. (2) Hora, (3) Drekkana, (4) Navamsa, (5)
Dwadasamsa, and (6) Thrimsamsa. Adultery with motherly relations,
friends, wives, spouses of Gurus and other prohibited relations is
more sinful than adultery with other women. Corrupting family and
innocent women is a horrible form of sin.


SU. 53.-Drigyogabhyamndhikabhyamamuranam. If Kuja and Sukra join or
aspect the 9th from Karakamsa, the person will have the evil habit of
seducing and keeping illegal gratifications till the end of his life.

NOTES The conjunctions and aspects are more powerful than 'the
Shadvargas. In the latter he will keep up the vicious habit for some
time, but in the former, this vice will continue till the end of life.
With some persons, males and females. * This has been clearly
described in my work Manual of Hindu Astrology. these morbid
sensations of lust and sexuality will continue for some time and then
they turn a new chapter in their lives, but there are others, who do
not give up the vicious habits till their death. Some are rascals only
for a time but there are others who are rascals and cheats throughout
their lives. Even on death-beds their thoughts run on unholy deeds.


SU. 54.-Ketuna pratibandhaha. If the 9th from Karakamsa has the
conjunction or aspect of Ketu, he will be fond of women for some time
and then give up the bad tendency.

SU. 55.-Guruna strainaha. If the 9th from Karakamsa has the
conjunction or aspect of Guru, he will be excessively fond of other
women..

SU. 56.-Rahunarthanivrittihi. If the 9th from Karakamsa is joined or

and say that if Ketu is found in 12th there will be final Bliss.


SU. 70. -Kriyochapayorviseshena. If Karakamsa is Mesha or Dhanus with
benefics there, the subject gets Moksha. If Mesha or Dhanus happens to
be the 12th from Karakamsa and Ketu is there, the person will get
Moksha.

NOTES The commentators have put on two different kinds of
interpretations. I shall explain both of them. The splendid power of
sutras and their brevity capable of long interpretations are only
possible in Sanskrit: No other language in the world possesses such
facilities for brevity and at the same time containing a world of
meaning. If Mesha or Dhanus becomes Karakamsa with a benefic there,
there will be the highest Bliss: If Mesha or Dhanus - becomes the 12th
from Karakamsa and Ketu is there, there will be the highest Bliss or
Moksha. Ketu is not a full benefic. Ketu becomes a benefic in Chara
Dasa and not otherwise. Therefore he cannot be classified as
asubhagraha. But astrology ascribes to him the highest spiritual power
of emancipation from all births and re-births and gives man Moksha. .


SU. 71:--Papair Qnyatha. : If the 12th from the : Karakamsa is
occupied by evil planets, he will go to hell and will have no Bliss.

performed by them and Maha Mantras or incantations to Divine and
angelic spirits and work that can be done by them. I shall mention a
few names of evil spirits: Bhuta, Preta, Pisacha, Sakini, Dhakini,

planets are as follows :-Ravi, Chandra, Kuja, Budha, Guru, Sukra and
Sani, the order of the week--days. Somebody must become Amatyakaraka,
suppose Sani becomes so. .The 6th from Ravi is Sukra and If Sukra

SU. 108.-yissishyavaiyyakarano vedavedanthavichha. If Guru joins
Karakamsa or the 5th from it, the person becomes learned in Vyakarana
or Grammar, Vedic literature and Vedangas.

NOTES The last are named as Siksha, Vyakarana, Chandas, Nirukta,
Jyotishs and Kalpa. Without a proficiency in these six Angas or limbs,
no scholar can interpret the Vedas properly. Vedas simply mean
repositories of knowledge useful for all ages, claims and nations.
Whatever might have been the origin of these intellectual mines, there
are no books extant in the world, which can compare with these deep
mines o1 thought, knowledge and highest conceptions of human
intellectual flights. The commentaries of Bhatta Bhaskara and
Vidyaranya are the two eyes for the Vedas through which we can
approach the Vedas and seen them to. some extent.

The first and earliest commentators is Bhatta Bhaskara and he must
have flourished in the remote ages. Vidyaranya's age is fixed clearly
by the inscription (see my History of Vijayanagar) as 1258 Salivahana
Saka or 1336 A.D. This illustrious intellectual giant not only founded
the Empire of Vijayanagar, but was also the pontifical Head of the
Sringeri Mutt of Adi Sankaracharya. He obtained Samadhi in 1386 after
having seen Harihara I, Bukka I and Harihara II, ruling the Empire
founded by him in great prosperity, peace and progress. Practically
there seems to be no difference in the combinations given in Sutras
106 and 108. If in this combination Guru is exalted or himself has
beneficial aspects or Shadvargas, the knowledge in the man may be more
profound, and the intellect more Comprehensive and piercing. The
strength of the planet, of the Rasi, the power of the Atmakaraka and
combinations and aspects determine the extent of the proficiency.


SU. 109.-Sabhajadaha sanina. . . If Sani joins Karakamsa or the 5th
from it, the person becomes nervous in an assembly.

by 12, the balance is 3. By this the author means, all those results

combination for great poverty. The same results apply to the positions
of planets in the 3rd from Karakamsa.

NOTES Bha 4, ya 1= 41, reversed 14, divided by 12, we get 2. Ra 2 and
Ga 3 = 23, reading backwards we get 32, divided by '12, we have 8
balance ; therefore, Bhagya and Roga denote 2 and 8, respectively.
Compare Kemadruma as explained by Varahamihira and others (See my
translation of Brihat Jataka - Nabhasa Yogas). When there are no
planets on either side of Chandra the combination is called Kemadruma
by him.
