Guest guest Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 Om ParamTatwaya Narayanaya Gurubhyo Namah! Dear Jyotisha, This past weekend, "Vastu And Astorlogy" was the subject taught in Vineland, NewJersey. Something from that class... If you read about Vastu Purusha, the presiding deity of Plot/House/Building etc., in Puranas, you may encounter a similar story along the lines of the following… ***Story Begins… Once upon a time, there was this Demon called "Andhakasura", with whom Lord Shiva was fighting a great battle. It was a tremendous battle and went into many days; all the gods were waiting for the outcome of the battle. During that battle, a drop of sweat fell from Lord Shiva onto the ground. >From that drop of Sweat arose a huge being, and started devouring everything he set his eyes on. He started destroying everything around. Gods were, obviously concerned for the welfare of the universe, and so at once pounced on this great being and held him face down onto the ground. 45 gods in all. They sat on and/or held different parts of this being, such that he could not get up. Dejected and unable to overcome the power of these 45 gods, that being, prayed to Lord Brahma - the Creator. "Oh Lord, You are the one who created me. Now, look at my fate, I can't even move an inch this side or that side. O creator of all, I bow to you. Only you can protect me now". Pleased with his prayers, Brahma said, "You shall be the presiding deity of Land everywhere. Before constructing any building/house, people shall pray to you and offer oblations to you". *** Story End. This is how VastuPurusha has become the presiding deity of Land and Buildings. And all those 45 gods sitting on the VastuPurusha became presiding deities for the respective limbs of VastuPurusha. Sounds an interesting story, ain't it?. But, is that it? Is it all there is in this story? Gurudev Sanjay ji says otherwise, please read on… ================== Sanjay ji: It makes an interesting story, isn't it? So what does it mean? What does it really mean?. Let's see the knowledge we can gain from this simple story…. Sanjay ji: Heard of Andhakasura?. What is `Andhaka'? Student: Darkness Student: Blindness Sanjay ji: Right. Yes. `Andhakasura' represents blindness, or ignorance. Because of which, you cannot see and so, cannot know. And Lord Shiva, the Giver of light/Knowledge, is fighting a hard battle to remove that blindness, ignorance, darkness. And the result of that hard battle is...Sweat. Now, Which planet represents sweat? Stu: Jala Tatwa, Moon? Stu: Saturn? Sanjay ji: Yes. Saturn. Saturn represents Sweat, result of hardwork and labour. Sweat is an excretion from the body. And as the Sweat falls on the ground, it becomes the VastuPurusha. So, who is the VastuPurusha?. Saturn. It is the Saturn that is the VastuPurusha. Who does the VastuPurusha pray to when he is down and out? Brahma. Who does Sage Parashara give as the `deity of Saturn'? Stu: Lord Brahma Sanjay ji: Yes. So, you see the connection? Who is VastuPurusha, really? Saturn. Saturn is the VastuPurusha. And so, Saturn is a very important planet to be propitiated for properties, buildings etc... That's why they say, doing `Grahapravesham' on Saturdays is very auspicious. Sanjay ji: Stories from Puranas, when read, must be looked into for broader and greater insights rather than just reading it like a bed-time story. Once you understand the basics, everything falls in place. Look deeper when you read puranic stories. There is lot of knowledge in them. Do not look at them as simple stories. ======================= Puranic stories, if superficially read, will make great bed-time stories. But there is greater depth and knowledge in them. Looking at the above seemingly simple story, even the name of the Asura has a meaning. Lord "Shiva" fighting with him has a meaning. The reason for mentioning "Sweat" has an important meaning. The reason that he prays to `Brahma' has an important connection etc…etc… Hope this provokes us into reading Puranic stories in a different light. Best Regards, -Suresh.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2003 Report Share Posted October 2, 2003 || Om Gurave Namah || Dear Hari, I think what Pt. Sanjay Rath was saying was that Vastu Purusha is signified by Saturn. It does not mean that everybody has to enter their house on Saturday. It entirely depends on the individuals chart and Muhurtha Chart. Mr. Laxman just pointed it as an incidentality that he entered the house on Saturday and did not sugest that everybody has to do it the same day. Warm Regards S.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 2003 Report Share Posted October 2, 2003 Om Gurave Namah Dear Ramadas Rao ji, > tanno durgiù pracodayät|| > Dear TVR Rao and Lakshmanji, > Normally for Griha Pravesham Saturday is the least concerened but if other days are not available or the circumstances are there to have Griha Pravesham ,then you can do it on a Saturday but with a good Muhurta Lagna like Vrishabha or Kumbha are really very good. > But as fro Vrishbha Rasi Shani is Yoga Karaka,then Saturday can be selected but Shani should not be affliced in the natal chart. > I hope this helps you. > With Sahstaanga Namana to Mother bhuvaneshwari, > Ramadas Rao. You are right. In south India, Saturday is not considered an auspicious day for griha pravesham. The logic of assigning Saturn to Vastu Purusha is also a bit loose. After all, will every deity who came from sweat be represented by Saturn, just because Saturn shows sweat? The 108 names of Mars say "piNakiswedodbhavah", which means one who is born from the sweat of Shiva (pinAki). This means that Mars was born from Earth when Shiva's sweat fell on Earth. Will Mars too be represented by Saturn like Vastu Purusha? On another note, earth, kshetra palaka, vastu purusha etc are normally associated with Mars - the planet of lands - in tradition. The point made by Sanjay ji on Shiva and Andhakasura is brilliant. I will not say that the stories of Puranas are not real, but they *also* stand as *metaphors* of what happens inside us spiritually. All the 14 spiritual worlds find representation within us. All the worlds and deities have representation within each person. If you read Puranas, asuras (demons) are always stronger, but rishis pray to Vishnu and He always helps suras (gods). We all have the same problem. The asuras within us always try to dominate and the rishis within us need to seek the help of Vishnu who lives in our hearts to help suras within us win. Anyway, I'll stop for now. But the metaphors in Puranas need to be understood well. Sanjay ji's point mentioned by Suresh is brilliant.

The only event I have privately organized so far is "Achyuta Jyotish Workshop" in January 2003. Are you talking about it? Well, that "money generating GIMMICK" was a free event BTW! I made it free to attend and took only voluntary donations (and there were no strings attached like "minimum suggested donation" etc. It was completely voluntary). By God's grace, people's voluntary contributions covered our rental expenses etc, but I was originally prepared for a loss too! If you criticize my teachings, I can understand it. After all, I never claimed my knowledge is perfect.

That will be given a lot of importance. As you rightly say, PD is very important. I will also be covering upto deha-antardasas, which you seem to think is "meaningless". However, those "meaningless" concepts were covered by Parasara too! Parasara covered upto deha-antardasas (six levels) in BPHS and we have some nice principles coming from the tradition. I will be sharing them along with a case study that was painstakingly rectified to explain tens of events upto deha-antardasa. The idea is to show the power of the techniques. But, undoubtedly, the focus will be on antardasa and pratyantardasa. Rakesh, Why don't you personally check out the Vimsottari dasa workshop, instead of speculating based on hearsay? If you cannot afford $50, I'll sponsor you and pay $50 to SJC on your behalf, from my pocket. May be you'll learn something from me and I will learn something from you. Hope this helps.

I am following what our ancient Maharshis have told and nothing else and not my own views.Who am I to give my own theory ? I am not a Maharshi of that olden times.As Purandara Dasa says we are all dolls in the hands of God and he is playing with us.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2003 Report Share Posted October 5, 2003 om kätyanäya vidmahe kanyäkumäri dhémahi| tÚae ÊigR> àcaedyat!. tanno durgiù pracodayät|| Dear Narasimhaji, Thanks for the information.Now including Andhakasura Story,there are other stories also there about Vastu Purusha. In Tantra Samucchaya : kZypSy ¢uih[i tu is<ihka ra÷vaStutnyavjIjnt!, kaçyapasya gruhiëé tu siàhikä rähuvästutanayävajéjanat| pUvRjae hirin³…ÄkNxrae devtErvrjae inpaitt>. pürvajo harinikruttakandharo devatairavarajo nipätitaù|| Meaning Simhika was Kashyapa's wife and she had Rahu and Vastu children.Rahu sat with Devathas to drink Amrita and become immortal but Lord Hari came to this and cut Rahu's head.So head becomes Rahu and the body became Ketu.After this vastu started giving troubles to Devathas and so they sent him to earth and while falling to earth all the Devathas sat on his body parts so that he should not trouble the human life in earth.So by offering pooja to this Vastu Purusha,Vastu's troubles will be mitigated and this was promised by Lord Brahma. Another ancient Classic on Vastu called Manushyaalaya Chandrika says like this : AasIÎETy> àÔ‚Ýae injÉujblvIyaR idna³aNt kaóa äséddaityaù pradrupto nijabhujabalavéryä dinäkränta käñöhä inóaeÖeòa sura[a< s tu yid pittae ivÏgaÇae xirÈya<, niñöhodveñöä suräëäà sa tu yadi patito viddhagätro dharitryäà| VyaÝSsvRÇ píat! b÷tr pirìuTyEv àuWvI— inmWnn!, vyäptassarvatra paçcät bahutara parivrutyaiva pruthvéà nimathnan| mTyaRÊSwa munINÔaSTvip c muoÉujStavdev< bÉUvu>. martyädusthä munéndrästvapi ca mukhabhujastävadevaà babhüvuù|| Meaning a powerful strong Asura was giving troubles to Devathas and he started fighting with them and finally he lost the battle and Devathas through him to earth.Now he started giving troubles to everybody in earth and all the Munis ( Maharshis ) and the people of the earth became worried. svRVyaÝePymui:mÚ tnutnu"qa_yNtre VyaemyÖt!, sarvavyäptepyamuñminna tanutanughaöäbhyantare vyomayadvat| tÖiÚTy< ivze;aÚgrpurmhI]eÇ oNfaNg[daE. tadvannityaà viçeñännagarapuramahékñetra khanòängaëadau|| %Äane nEétaza ivinihtcrne yavdIzaÄzI;eR jate, uttäne nairutäçä vinihitacarane yävadéçättaçérñe jäte| taviÚ;eÊ> iSwrimh ivÉudaStSy dehe ][en. tävanniñeduù sthiramiha vibhudästasya dehe kñaëena|| Meaning the Asura which fell to the earth started giving troubles everywhere to the people.So he occupied big utensils used to heat water for taking bath,cities,houses,earth plots,corridor of houses,foundation of houses and slept with his head towards north-east and fet towards south-west.At this condition the Devaths though they wanted to remove his Ahankara ( Egoism ) and sat on his body parts so that he becomes calm. mU×IRzaeSy tu s<iSwtae nynyae> pjRNykaíaiditíapStÖdne mürdhnéçoasya tu saàsthito nayanayoù parjanyakäçcäditiçcäpastadvadane twa gltle tSyapvTsaþy>, tathä galatale tasyäpavatsähvayaù| vamïaeÇgtae jy{t #tr ÇaSyaidit> s<iSwta vämaçrotragato jayaëta itara träsyäditiù saàsthitä vama<se iSwtvanmTyRpitr<segRlae di][e. vämäàse sthitavänamartyapatiraàseargalo dakñiëe|| Meaning on the head of this Asura sat ESHANA,on his eyes- PARJANYA,ADITI,on his face- AAPA, on his neck - AAPAVATSA,on his left ear- JAYANTA,right ear - DITI,on his left shoulder- INDRA,Right shoulder- ARGALA all these Devathas sat on his body parts .By the VARA ( promise ) of Bramha ,Vastu Purush and a total of 53 Devathas sit in different parts of this Vastu Purusha and take the offerings while performing Griha Pravesha rituals ( Vastu Bali etc.) and Bless the native of happy life and properity in that house. I hope this helps all.

In south India, Saturday is not considered an auspicious day for griha pravesham.The logic of assigning Saturn to Vastu Purusha is also a bit loose. After all, will every deity who came from sweat be represented by Saturn, just because Saturn shows sweat?The 108 names of Mars say "piNakiswedodbhavah", which means one who is born from the sweat of Shiva (pinAki). This means that Mars was born from Earth when Shiva's sweat fell on Earth. Will Mars too be represented by Saturn like Vastu Purusha?On another note, earth, kshetra palaka, vastu purusha etc are normally associated with Mars - the planet of lands - in tradition.The point made by Sanjay ji on Shiva and Andhakasura is brilliant. I will not say that the stories of Puranas are not real, but they *also* stand as *metaphors* of what happens inside us spiritually. All the 14 spiritual worlds find representation within us. All the worlds and deities have representation within each person. If you read Puranas, asuras (demons) are always stronger, but rishis pray to Vishnu and He always helps suras (gods). We all have the same problem. The asuras within us always try to dominate and the rishis within us need to seek the help of Vishnu who lives in our hearts to help suras within us win. Anyway, I'll stop for now. But the metaphors in Puranas need to be understood well. Sanjay ji's point mentioned by Suresh is brilliant.At your service,NarasimhaArchives: vedic astrologyGroup info: vedic astrology/info.htmlTo UNSUBSCRIBE: Blank mail to vedic astrology-.......
