Guest guest Posted May 2, 2003 Report Share Posted May 2, 2003 Respected Sanjay, Baqaya, Partha and others, I have been following your last mails on the subject and got a bit upset; it is the reality of results that counts at the end of the day. Slukas and rules are 'written theoretical definitions' until statistically proven true. Otherwise we can expect the exact results from all charts with a specific mutual combination, which is certainly not the case. It will be wrong to take any single statement in isolation as a chart is a very complex 'map'. I trust you all will agree to that point as otherwise the entire foundation of astrology becomes a floating one. There is no doubt every mahadasa or antardasa of Rahu and Ketu in any given chart is a challenge for every astrologer. The issue of Rahu's combinations as a statistical key element has not yet been proven (as far as I am aware of) and is definitely a good target for a serious future research. As a personal example I can say that my own Rahu period (1964-1982 - in Aries/9th with lagna lord Sun and aspected by Jupiter from Sag/5th) was a very hard and tough time with many drastical events and huge changes. The Rahu/Jupiter period (who are in 5/9) included something that I doubt if any of the lists 1065 members have ever been involved in. None of the slukas/statement definitions will suit my own simple example. My view is that any sluka/statement have to be supported by statistical reality or else remain a theoretical statement. With the deepest respect to all Jay Weiss - Sanjay Rath vedic astrology Friday, May 02, 2003 9:43 PM RE: [vedic astrology] Re: Left hand ||Om brihaspataye namah|| Dear Sri Baqaya ji, Namaste. In another mail you have quoted that (a) rahu in trines gives excellent results, (b) Rahu conjoined a lord of a kendra placed in a trine gives excellent results and © Rahu dasa - Jupiter antardasa gives good results A) To the first point let me make it clear that Rahu is a first rate malefic and evil planet and shall give all the evil results that one can possibly imagine in a chart. Now, with this premise, when Rahu is in trines it is 'like a snake up the sleeve' are the words of Dr Raman and to this I agree. Almost every chart with Rahu in the fifth house has seen some terrible relationship issues without fail, and more so if this Rahu is to conjoin or aspect Venus. In the ninth house, Rahu is placed in its Marana Karaka sthana and this will bring death like suffering in matters connected to the bhava indicated by the Kumbha rasi. B). Dasa-bhukti analaysis requires a good working and broad view of Jyotish. Here the rule given is "Rahu conjoined a lord of a kendra placed in a trine gives excellent results" which is Correct and I fully agree with this, but the rule is INCOMPLETE. The rule should read "Rahu conjoined a lord of a kendra placed in a trine gives excellent results during its dasa while the dasa of the Kendra lord shall give apamrityu bhaya and death like suffering." This is a very simple rule and is based on the teachings of Ramanujacarya in Bhavartha ratnakara. When any planet conjoins Rahu, Rahu shall give its results whereas the planet conjoining Rahu shall give the results of Rahu during its dasa. So, Rahu dasa shall be excellent as the Rajyoga indicated by the Kendra lord placed in a trine shall give results. this is very simple to understand. For example, Vrisab Lagna with rahu and Saturn in the ninth house. Rahu dasa everyone said all kinds of things, but the native had Rajyoga. You can see that rahu has conjoined Saturn the yogakaraka placed in the ninth house i.e. Rahu dasa was actually behaving like Saturn dasa for Vrisad lagna. Then when Saturn dasa came, the life has become like hell for the native. Even hell would seem a better place. So you see during Saturn dasa he actually got Marana Karaka Rahu results. This happens with Rahu. C) Jupiter antardasa in Rahu dasa is the relief expected. Look at the reverse Jupiter dasa-rahu antardasa. Why are the results invariably so terrible? In the first case Rahu indicates the native and Jupiter will indicate his samsara. So, native is in a Bhoga mood with rahu dasa and the samsara is in a great giver mood in Jupiter antardasa, so the results are good. The reverse works for Jupiter dasa Rahu antardasa. Of course, there must be a lot more to this as these are very general results. Finally, I too am a professional astrologer but do not sell stones nor rituals. However selling gemstones or performing rituals is not a bad thing. These would not be classified as vices. However, I fully agree with you that some people claiming to be Vedic astrologers are doing such things of forcing people to do rituals and take some magic things. It is our best intention to do something seriously about this misuse of the name of Jyotish. Mostly these people do not know anything and are not serious about learning either. Thank you for pointing this out as there are many who will share your views in this matter. Yes we have to do something soon.

Of the 8 signs you've mentioned for Ra being beneficial, I'm surprised that Aq, which he co-lords, is missing. Also, I would've thought that Ra in either Sg or Pi is some kinda curse because they're lorded by Ju who's Ra's antithesis. In fact, that's my guess for why Ra in either 9H or 12H is considered so undesirable (Ju lords 9H and 12H of the natural zodiac).> > Just for interest, can you quote the specific sloka and chapter numbers of BPHS where Parasara talks of Ra beneficial in the 8 signs you've men tioned?
