Guest guest Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 || Om Namah Shivaaya || Dear Vistiji, Namaskar, Thank you for your valuable comments. I will get a copy of BPHS as soon as possible. I understand your reasoning about the dictum being more valid for relatives. However, might it not be possible for a person to receive longevity from their Guru? Obviously it would depend on the closeness of the relationship among other things. But if it were possible, then perhaps Lagnesh in 9th isn't good for the Guru either? I am also working on understanding the second part of this dictum. That is, if we count from the lord to lagna, we will get the house that "benefits" (for lack of a better word). Now does this 'benefit' extend to all significations or only to some? I know that Lagnesh in 5th is good for the father, so it would seem that external (relatives only, perhaps) significations will benefit. But what about internal ones? My thinking is that, if the logic established so far continues, then these will actually be diminished. So Lagnesh in 5th will not bring the native good luck and so on. Is this line of thought correct? With reverence to the Gurus, Samir ______________________ Message: 18 Sat, 12 Mar 2005 13:19:35 +0100 "Visti Larsen" <visti (AT) (DOT) org> RE: #4 "Count from Lagna to it's lord..." ||Hare Rama Krsna|| Dear Samir, Namaskar You have copied this from some online text. Please get the original sanskrit and work on it, it actually gets easier to understand and remember Parasara. There are three results give by Parasara; - dehasaukhya-vivarjita; devoid of bodily comforts/happiness - vyartha-vyayÄ«; fruitless expenditure or useless expenditure - mahÄkrodhÄ«; prone to much anger/wrathful The Sharma edition has seemingly by accident mistranslated the word “vivarjitaâ€, please keep that in mind. - dehasaukhya; the health of the body is seen from the lagna, but the comforts of the body are seen from the twelfth house itself, i.e. sleep, recuperation and relaxation. When worst comes to worst, the twelfth house is the doctor and hospital where our recovery requires special assistance, and hence the twelfth house is for the bodily comforts. That is why Å›ubha yoga is formed by planets in the 12th house, whilst it is aÅ›ubha when malefics are there. One suffers on account of this if lagna lord is in the twelfth house. This is the opposite when lagna lord is in the second house. - vyartha-vyayÄ«; notice that the word “vyayaśīla†has not been used which means spendthrift. Instead the correct intepretation is; wasteful-expenditure. Its hard to differentiate, but point is that the twelfth house is responsible for making us give to the world, and to give to the right people at the right time. This giving is a means through which we clear our debts to our pitris (past seven generations) and the devas, whom we owe a debt for being born. This is the principle behind the vyayapada (UL), which is will show where our expenditure is going. If lagneÅ›a goes to the twelfth house, then this expenditure does not go to the pitris and devas, and is useless. To counter arguments about the yoga causing spendthriftness; please examine charts of people with lagneÅ›a in twelfth house, and not all will be spendthrift, instead for this we need to analyse the first and twelfth houses from arudha lagna, and kÄraka lagna (atmakaraka sign), as per Jaimini’s advise. - mahÄkrodhÄ«; when any planet is in the twelfth house, it will invariably be opposite to the sixth house, and hence a strong focus of attention comes on the sixth house. As a result these people have a very good suspicioun about who their enemies are, however this focus also results in them being able to see a flaw in any argument. Be it a benefit or a flaw, this causes them to argue and pick arguments. Just for writing this, i should expect some with lagneÅ›a in twelfth house to disagree with me... please read on. Maharishi Parasara finally states; shubhadá¹›gyoga-varjita; the above happens if the twelfth is devoid of benefic association (aspect/conjunction). We may infer that when there are both benefics and malefics aspecting, that both the good and evil results will manifest depending on the dasa’s. i.e. a person may have seen the negative results in childhood but the opposite in later age.
