Guest guest Posted April 22, 2003 Report Share Posted April 22, 2003 ~OM~ Dear Vivek, Karma really cannot be dissociated with the events in such a manner, but prima facie, you are right in your thinking. I will give an illustration of my point. Take the sixth house: Natural good (what people call benefic, but actually Subha like Jupiter, Ketu, Vemus, Mercury and Moon) planets placed there indicate one who shall be freed from the troubles of the sixth house by the deity indicated by the planet. All 'Agantuka drista' roga/satru shall vanish at the smile of such a strong and good planet. However, an exactly similar situation occuring from AL is the most terrible. If the planet in the sixth from AL or its lord is a natural benefic and is strong, then the native is tormented by enemies. Here, both the situations are karmic as they indicate the manifestation of karma but the analysis of the result is exactly the opposite. Another example: Chandra kala nadi says that for Libra lagna native, the great blessing is the strength of exalted Jupiter as the enemies will flee like elephants running from a battlefield. Now, if Libra is the Arudha Lagna, then the exactly opposite situation would arise if the sixth lord were exalted. This may seem easy to understand, but in application, this is the key to Raj-jyotish. Take the chart of K N Rao for example. He has Libra Lagna with Venus in it and Jupiter in the 10th house in exaltation and Mercury in the 12th house in exaltation. From the Lagna, the sixth lord Jupiter is exalted and this may seem fantastic, but look at it from Arudha Lagna. The AL is in Cancer with the sixth lord Jupiter in exaltation. Thus, Jupiter has the power to destroy all enemies (as lord of Pisces) or to destroy him and promote enemies (as lord of Sagittarius)....how would you decide what Jupiter is going to do? Mercury is going to teach him the spiritual way and in exaltation in third from AL gives pravrajya in the positive sense and defeat in the battle of sansara in the material sense. His differences with B V Raman started in Mercury dasa. The end result was a forgone conclusion as during the dasa of a natural benefic (subha, good) planet exalted in the 3rd or 6th from AL, it is foolish to fight with anyone as the native is surely defeated.
