devata karaka

[Guest guest]

|| Sri Rama Jaya Rama Jaya Jaya Rama ||

 

Dear Guruji,

 

In the conference study materials, there was a mention of "devata karaka".

Could you please enlighten me more on this?

 

It has been mentioned there that it follows the AtmakAraka and the

amatyakAraka in the hierarchy list. So, is it same as the Bhratra Karaka?

When does the Bhratra kAraka become the devata kAraka? What does it signify

in either case?

 

I also studied in that material that while atmakAraka helps determine ishta

devata, the amatyakAraka indicates the deity that symbolizes the sustenance

in this world. What does this mean?

 

regards,

vishwa.
