Guest guest Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 Dear Gurus & friends I have been reading a very enlightening book by R Lakshmanan, who is/ used to be a very reputed astrologer 2-3 decades back. 1/4 way thru. Got stuck at his comment that "badhak in 9= sadhak"= RY= rise to the top. He was talking about St L10/11 in Sg for Ar Lg. But in the reference, I understood that he was talking in general for badhak in 9, & taking this case only as an example. Most of the rest of the book is VERY good, replete with example-charts on each page, to cover EACH & EVERY concept in the text (unlike many modern authors who only collect aphorisms, so that most of their books are a monotone of serial nos, of X in Y+ Z assoc by T= wicked mother). So I cant ignore this statement, just b'cos I cd not understand it. What I understand is that badhakesh should ideally be weak (in dusthan, esp in 12= excellent, debilitated, combust, etc). Any clues? Gurudev said that if I meditate every morning, & start looking at charts, all my answers will start coming to me. Well, much noise is being made in the mornings, as daily mantras are being full-throatedly recited(thank u Karen Sloker, for the clarification & VRA ref). Tho, as for meditation, Gurus, please give me a little more time - its not really happening properly (hyperactive mind). But somehow, all these seemingly easy answers (like gainer/ loser in VRY, & Zoran's famous doubel negatives, & now this one) continue to elude me. St conjoins my Jp, slowing wisdom's effort in reaching me. But slowneasy wins the race, says St, ie if the audience is still awake/ alive by the time u reach the finishing line. ===== Best wishes Nandan ______________________ Looking for a job?

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2002 Report Share Posted February 28, 2002 Nandan, I have not found that Saturn in Sag for Aries lagna actually creates this favourable situation. The person I know with this (Sun, Venus, Mercury, Rahu, Jup, Lagna in Aries, Mars in Gemini, Ketu in Libra, Saturn in Sag) had a pretty ordinary life that he managed to ruin completely through his own actions. Was abandoned by most of his family and finally managed to gain back an ordinary life through his son (3rd child, 9th house, saturn?). The main features of this chart seem to be the kedara yoga (was born to a farming family), parivartana between L1 and L3 (was a postmaster), mutual aspect between mars and saturn (a very means justifies the ends type), and the heavy occupation of lagna (parivraja yog which deprives him of wife, family?). If saturn in sag would be good, then the mutual aspect with L1 mars should have augmented it and created something observable. It did not.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2002 Report Share Posted March 1, 2002 Vyam Vysadevaya Namah -------------------- Dear Nandan, Only auspicious(for the native) placement for Badhakesh, is 12th house. Not any other Dusthana. Did the author mean badhak or badhakesh? Badhak literally means obstruction, and there are also other types of Badhak. Regarding meditation, Gurudeva taught me that Pranayama is quite important, before meditation. Its has made up for alot of my previous efforts in meditation. Initially, i used to take deep pranayama-like breathes, to relax my mind, and hopefully reach Samadhi. During the Dhyana i only got the best answers when i listened. Hence calm your mind and listen, and all the answers will come, as if you were standing under a waterfall. The tools todo so are allready there; Pranayama(breathecontrol) followed by Dhyana(Meditation). Dharana(focus) is very powerful, and hence i do it in moderation. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Visti. --- Nandan Chakraborty <nanadhan wrote: > Got stuck at his comment that "badhak in 9= sadhak"= > RY= rise to the > top.
