To Mr.Balaji ...about 5/7shalaka vedha chakra

[Guest guest]

Dear Balaji,

 

I started studying Sarvatobhadra Chakra from the classic work

- JaatakaPhaladeepikaa of Mantreshvara; it was a good start.

And I started collecting information - in traces - from other

ancient and medieval works on Muhurta and Gochara of planets.

 

Panchashalaaka and Saptashalaaka Vedha chakras are the more

ancient forms of SBC and primitive in nature.

VEDHA is an affliction/aspect/relation within nakshatras.

SHALAAKA is the line drawn to represent the chakra.

 

In Pancha-Shalaaka Vedha Chakra, FIVE vertical and horizontal

lines intersecting at right angles are drawn. This looks

lika a square table without perimeter. On that two lines

joining diagonals are drawn two times, one beside the other

parallel to each other i.e. like a square having double lines

for its each diagonal! Totally, thus 14 lines are drawn and

result in 28 points for which, each Nakshtra is allotted

strating from Krittika at First point of North East corner.

The stars are said to have Vedha on opposite ends of lines.

 

Sapta-Shalaaka Vedha Chakra is constructed by drawing SEVEN

vertical and horizontal lines intersecting at right angles.

The 28 stars are assigned from Krittika at the first Eastern

point. Vedha is said to exist on opposite ends of each line.

As one can see, this is the basis for SBC and its 3 Vedhas

for each star. If one removes SBC's perimeter, the resulting

matrix will be 7 X 7 whose skeleton is Sapta Shalaaka Vedha

Chakra!

 

Matrices are always interesting! Hope you know of Jaina work

"Siribhoovalaya" in old KannaDa language.

 

yours humbly

KAD
