Thank you, Vic.

 

In the prashna chart, the 12th lord mercury is with the sun and venus in the 8th

house and the venus is the prashna lord. I do not know how to interpret this.

Soul of the departed

 

 

Dear Narendra,

 

I find this to be an interesting post for an exercise. Though it borders on a

request for free reading (which is not allowed in this list), members may wish

to reply to it for the betterment of the groups knowledge.

Dear List,

 

I am posting a Prashna Chart of a person who passed away recently.

 

Is it possible to know where the soul is? Whether the departed is resting in

peace or whether any 'pooja' is required to 'settle' the soul?

 

Please advise.

 

Thank you.

 

Narendra.

Dear Babu,

 

Of course, I remember you well :-)

 

My sincere condolences on the passing of your sister. I realise what a

loss this is for you as you were so close. I hope you can take comfort in

the fact that she's now in the arms of God and her long suffering is

over. As for any pujas that might be appropriate at this time I would

leave that to other members more familiar with Hindu (last rights?) to

advise you...I'm quite out of my depth in this regard, I'm afraid.

 

Best Wishes,

Mrs. Wendy

Soul of the Departed

 

 

Dear Wendy,

 

I am Babu.

 

I am already the member of the group but for a long time I have not

visited the site and have forgotten my ID and PASSWORD so have

signed up again with the different name and the password.

 

You might remember I was asking about my sister who had cancer.

 

She passed away on the 25th of June 2008 Wednesday, in Leicester, at

5.45 pm, our UK BST Time. I miss her terribly and wish to know whether

she is OK where ever she is and, therefore, have asked the group.

 

She was born in JINJA, UGANDA on 14/08/1956 at 15:15.

 

I was at her bedside when she was going, felt my hand on her hand and

face told her 'Please go peacefully and whatever you have left

unfulfilled come back again in the next life and finish them'. Gave

her Holy Ganga Water. Did not know what else to say, I was helpless.

She was about 7 years younger than me. I, myself, is a disabled person.

 

If there is anything to do on my part, if the chart says, we'll do it.

 

I do not know who else to ask, so this request you.

 

Thank you.

 

Babu.

Dear Babu,

I am retired Army Officer from Corps of Engineers, Indian Army. I am new to this

group.

My condolences to the bereaved family of the departed soul.

According to our Hindu custom, the Nakshatra [ the star] at the time demise is

important for the funeral rituals. Normally, the ashes are taken out on 3rd or

5th or 7th day[according to convenience] from the funeral pyre[ called

Sanchainam]  and is kept in an earthen pot in the house of the departed and

offerings are made everyday to departed soul till sixteenth day [Pulakuli] when

the ashes are immersed in a running body of water. If you are able to take it to

Haridwar or Triveni in Allahabad and immerse it in Ganges then the soul is

supposed to have attained salvation. Otherwise it is the custom to make

offerings[Called bali] annually during the Karkata month. Kindly note that this

south indian custom being followed in Kerala. There would be variations in other

parts of India.

There is a Parasurama temple in Trivandrum  where they do " thilohoma "   for the

departed soul, in case you could not do all the above things due to

circumstances.

  Personally I feel one should let go of departed souls and let them be. Love

and attachments should prevail when a person is alive.

With kindest regards,

Col. Chandran

Dear Mr Chandran Ji,

Love and attachements are eternaland continue to be there in some forms even

after the souls departed.Each religion,country and even various parts of the

country too have their own ways of doing/performing religious rites.we ofcourse

are tied up with what have told/encrypted in our Dharma Sastras.Soul of the

departed though vanishes in the form in which we have seen and got influenced

,continue to inspire for all their good and helpful actions.

Attachments do not vanish with pyres and continue to bring home emotions and

attach till we realise that the forms of creations are only verytemporary

Dear Col. Chandran,

 

Thank you very much for your kind Message.

 

We have performed 'last rites' for her in the UK , according to the traditions

of the western Gujarat. We did this yesterday, the 11th day of her passing. And

some of us will visit India to immerse her ashes in the Ganga .

 

I am still concerned. In her birth chart she had three planets, the RAHU, SATURN

& The MOON in the 12 house with the Sagittarius ASCENDANT and her passing away

chart have the similar planets.

 

I do not know.

 

Jay Shree Krishna.

 

Babu.

Re: Soul of the Departed

 

 

Dear Babu,

I am retired Army Officer from Corps of Engineers, Indian Army. I am new to this

group.

My condolences to the bereaved family of the departed soul.

According to our Hindu custom, the Nakshatra [ the star] at the time demise is

important for the funeral rituals. Normally, the ashes are taken out on 3rd or

5th or 7th day[according to convenience] from the funeral pyre[ called

Sanchainam] and is kept in an earthen pot in the house of the departed and

offerings are made everyday to departed soul till sixteenth day [Pulakuli] when

the ashes are immersed in a running body of water. If you are able to take it to

Haridwar or Triveni in Allahabad and immerse it in Ganges then the soul is

supposed to have attained salvation. Otherwise it is the custom to make

offerings[Called bali] annually during the Karkata month. Kindly note that this

south indian custom being followed in Kerala. There would be variations in other

parts of India.

There is a Parasurama temple in Trivandrum where they do " thilohoma " for the

departed soul, in case you could not do all the above things due to

circumstances.

Personally I feel one should let go of departed souls and let them be. Love

and attachments should prevail when a person is alive.

With kindest regards,

Col. Chandran

Dear Babu,

 

Of course, I remember you well :-)

 

My sincere condolences on the passing of your sister. I realise what a

loss this is for you as you were so close. I hope you can take comfort in

the fact that she's now in the arms of God and her long suffering is

over. As for any pujas that might be appropriate at this time I would

leave that to other members more familiar with Hindu (last rights?) to

advise you...I'm quite out of my depth in this regard, I'm afraid.

 

Best Wishes,

Mrs. Wendy

Soul of the Departed

 

Dear Wendy,

 

I am Babu.

 

I am already the member of the group but for a long time I have not

visited the site and have forgotten my ID and PASSWORD so have

signed up again with the different name and the password.

 

You might remember I was asking about my sister who had cancer.

 

She passed away on the 25th of June 2008 Wednesday, in Leicester, at

5.45 pm, our UK BST Time. I miss her terribly and wish to know whether

she is OK where ever she is and, therefore, have asked the group.

 

She was born in JINJA, UGANDA on 14/08/1956 at 15:15.

 

I was at her bedside when she was going, felt my hand on her hand and

face told her 'Please go peacefully and whatever you have left

unfulfilled come back again in the next life and finish them'. Gave

her Holy Ganga Water. Did not know what else to say, I was helpless.

She was about 7 years younger than me. I, myself, is a disabled person.

 

If there is anything to do on my part, if the chart says, we'll do it.

 

I do not know who else to ask, so this request you.

 

Thank you.

 

Babu.

Dear Shri Ravindramaniji,

 

Thanks is the smallest word I can say to you.

This is a wonderful book. I never knew of

its existence though I have a few books by

Sivanandji.

 

I will take out time to read this shortly,

Chapter by chapter and take in whatever I can.

 

Thanks once again.

 

regards,

Bhaskar.

Dear Bhaskar,

 

You are welcome:-))

 

Go through it slowly. There are enough hints available for an

astrologer too in this book. Remember the principles of Varahamihira

vis-a-vis the condition after death and where the soul departs and

the decanates.

Dear Ravindra ji

 

Thanks a ton.

If there was anything I wanted to read, since long, it is this.!!

 

Yesterday night I had a strange dream.

I was running, dont know why and about to board a train, when i noticed that

there were two bags below the train.

I tried to open one and it exploded, but the explosion was small.

I woke up and i found that I was feeling something in my right ears.

Did the mind make the dreams effect of pain (due to explosion) in ear a little

real?

 

And it set me off to think, if I had died then what would have happened.

More discussions after the book is read.

Dear Monica ji,

By the way what is the need to know " What becomes of the soul

after death " .If during the process of knowing we passed away then?

Because in Kaliyug living time is uncertain.So we should do good

karmas without having any zeal to know after.Dreams are to forget

because they are only dreams.

Shaaswat

Dear Ganeshji,

 

Yes you are right.

I have visited there and also done the Mritunjaya Japa

in the ashram, and felt great peace and stength. I owe

Swami Sivanandji all the knowledge I posses about

mantras and Japa, through his books,

especially, " Japa Yoga " . I am also into his

nitya mantras which keep me protected.

 

regards,

Bhaskar.

Dear friends,

 

I just posted the link. That is all. I remain grateful to my

father who introduced the books of Swami Sivanandaji, in my life at

the age of 10.

 

It is because of reading those books of Swami Sivanandaji and Ramana

Maharisi, I am here or other wise I would have been in other side of

the fence because of my Saturn and Mars placed in my lagna and

because of dasha sequence I got in my life. Mars is functional

benefic in my case but I always remember, Mars and Saturn are, at the

first place, malefics. They become functional benefics for my lagna

because of their ownership. Sun represents father who influences my

9th house. He also becomes functional benefic in my case. Sun is

not a malefic in the strictest sense. He is a " Kroor " planet. ( I

cant find an English equivalent here) Hence he falls in the category

of malefic.

 

Astrology is not the end of life. But knowing " Who am I " is the real

purpose of this life. This is my humble opinion.For those who are

interested to know more about death, from a great soul, I quote the

following from Maharishi Ramana.

 

Quote:

" I was sitting alone in a room on the first floor of my uncle's

house. I seldom had any sickness and on that day there was nothing

wrong with my health, but a sudden violent fear of death overtook me.

There was nothing in my state of health to account for it nor was

there any urge in me to find out whether there was any account for

the fear. I just felt I was going to die and began thinking what to

do about it. It did not occur to me to consult a doctor or any elders

or friends. I felt I had to solve the problem myself then and there.

The shock of the fear of death drove my mind inwards and I said to

myself mentally, without actually framing the words: 'Now death has

come; what does it mean? What is it that is dying? This body dies.'

And at once I dramatised the occurrence of death. I lay with my limbs

stretched out still as though rigor mortis has set in, and imitated a

corpse so as to give greater reality to the enquiry. I held my breath

and kept my lips tightly closed so that no sound could escape, and

that neither the word 'I' nor any word could be uttered. 'Well then,'

I said to myself, 'this body is dead. It will be carried stiff to the

burning ground and there burn and reduced to ashes. But with the

death of the body, am I dead? Is the body I? It is silent and inert,

but I feel the full force of my personality and even the voice of I

within me, apart from it. So I am the Spirit transcending the body.

The body dies but the spirit transcending it cannot be touched by

death. That means I am the deathless Spirit.' All this was not dull

thought; it flashed through me vividly as living truths which I

Dear Ravindra ji

 

Thanks a ton.If there was anything I wanted to read, since long, it

is this.!!Yesterday night I had a strange dream.

I was running, dont know why and about to board a train, when i

noticed thatthere were two bags below the train.

I tried to open one and it exploded, but the explosion was small.

I woke up and i found that I was feeling something in my right ears.

Did the mind make the dreams effect of pain (due to explosion) in ear

a little real?And it set me off to think, if I had died then what

would have happened.More discussions after the book is read.

Dear Shri Ravindramani ji,

Your further addition of Shri Shri Ramana Maharishi ji saying gives lot of

inspiration to understand life and death ,very two vital aspects of the cycle of

human beings.In this context it may be relvant to recall to the saying of

Socrates also: " one shopuld always be occupied in the parctice of dying "

There is no way to fully live until we know how to die

 

A Consolation :Why are you crying?My whole life was only that I might learn how

to die " words of Birnham to his wife on his death bed

Birth and death are intricate aspects of life.

Something has to be surrendered.Surrendering is synonymous to death.Its death

that brings an eager anticipation for the unborn in the words of Rajneesh.

To think  of the soul of the departed is to rember that some other form of birth

is awaited

Dear friends,

 

I just posted the link. That is all. I remain grateful to my

father who introduced the books of Swami Sivanandaji, in my life at

the age of 10.

 

It is because of reading those books of Swami Sivanandaji and Ramana

Maharisi, I am here or other wise I would have been in other side of

the fence because of my Saturn and Mars placed in my lagna and

because of dasha sequence I got in my life. Mars is functional

benefic in my case but I always remember, Mars and Saturn are, at the

first place, malefics. They become functional benefics for my lagna

because of their ownership. Sun represents father who influences my

9th house. He also becomes functional benefic in my case. Sun is

not a malefic in the strictest sense. He is a " Kroor " planet. ( I

cant find an English equivalent here) Hence he falls in the category

of malefic.

 

Astrology is not the end of life. But knowing " Who am I " is the real

purpose of this life. This is my humble opinion.For those who are

interested to know more about death, from a great soul, I quote the

following from Maharishi Ramana.

 

Quote:

" I was sitting alone in a room on the first floor of my uncle's

house. I seldom had any sickness and on that day there was nothing

wrong with my health, but a sudden violent fear of death overtook me.

There was nothing in my state of health to account for it nor was

there any urge in me to find out whether there was any account for

the fear. I just felt I was going to die and began thinking what to

do about it. It did not occur to me to consult a doctor or any elders

or friends. I felt I had to solve the problem myself then and there.

The shock of the fear of death drove my mind inwards and I said to

myself mentally, without actually framing the words: 'Now death has

come; what does it mean? What is it that is dying? This body dies.'

And at once I dramatised the occurrence of death. I lay with my limbs

stretched out still as though rigor mortis has set in, and imitated a

corpse so as to give greater reality to the enquiry. I held my breath

and kept my lips tightly closed so that no sound could escape, and

that neither the word 'I' nor any word could be uttered. 'Well then,'

I said to myself, 'this body is dead. It will be carried stiff to the

burning ground and there burn and reduced to ashes. But with the

death of the body, am I dead? Is the body I? It is silent and inert,

but I feel the full force of my personality and even the voice of I

within me, apart from it. So I am the Spirit transcending the body.

The body dies but the spirit transcending it cannot be touched by

death. That means I am the deathless Spirit.' All this was not dull

thought; it flashed through me vividly as living truths which I

perceived directly almost without thought process. I was something

real, the only real thing about my present state, and all the

conscious activity connected with the body was centered on that I.

From that moment onwards, the I or Self focused attention on itself

by a powerful fascination. Fear of death vanished once and for all.

The ego was lost in the flood of Self-awareness. Absorption in the

Self continued unbroken from that time. Other thought might come and

go like the various notes of music, but the I continued like the

fundamental sruti [that which is heard] note which underlies and

blends with all other notes. "

Dear Sh. Krishnan,

 

I am happy to hear from you after a long time.

 

You are right. We are ready to leave the moment we are asked to

witout hesitating for a second. Detachment is the key for that.

Dear Ravindramani

 

The discussions on that River with pus and waste and blood etc...

and various boiling oil pots and hot copper plates awaiting waiting eagerly for

victims is a little horrible... pheww.

Even having a boat to cross the river is not going to be easy.

That is gona be a one heck of a horrible time.

 

They seem to use very much the things found on earth, even the name is same.!

I wonder if with technology changes they will also upgrade their torture methods

or if they have been the same since millions of years.!!

:-)

 

Someone somewhere sometime back described that, his familys pitra came down to

describe the state of atmas in various regios.

He said something like, lakhs of atmas tied to thick chains and being beaten and

all shouting and crying.

Much worse than Nazi camp seems like.

 

I wonder why even gods and their managers have to use so much violence to cure

violence and other defects.

Apparently seems to be very un-godly.

Dear Narendraji ,

 

Though i do not advise anyone as per our

Hindu religion dictums to disturb any soul

which has passed away, but the website

Link which I gave in my message today

" The Laws of the Spirit world " ,

has a contact email id, where if one

contacts , one may be able

to pass and receive any Urgent message if one

so wishes to communicate with his

beloved one who has left him.

I suppose here one has to give them black and

white photographs of all the family members

( Without specs on )and they would then

do the needful.

 

Theother good option is

to read the book I suggested " Autobiography

of a Yogi " , enroll as a student, and learn

the techniques given in the lessons, which

would give you the powers to contact

telephaticallyor physically with the

passed ones, which is a sattvic way of

contacting those beyond, through the eyes

of a Yogi. I assure you that its not

impossible, but very much

possible, this way.

 

Sorry again for disturbing you, but Your

pain is there with me too.

 

regards,

Bhaskar.

Bhai astrokinektji,

 

Sorry for coming in .

The Gita when it says like this, it talks about

the soul - atma, in its original self, ie. without

its coverings of the other Koshas.

To give punishment or pleasure, a new body is given

to the soul. This body does not die till it

is made to suffer or bear the pleasures of

heavens. Once this job is over then , back to

the next stage in evolution of the soul.

The soul just does not leave the body

when one dies. It takes alongwith it the

Vasnamaya Kosha which contains all the

experiences the soul has undergone uptil

that moment, along with the records of unfulfilled

desires and rinabandhans, which await to be completed

when its next given a new birth. What is burnt on Earth

or cremated is the Annamaya Kosha or the human body, but

the rest leave up with the soul. Unless and until

the Ananadmaya kosha dissolves, the soul would not

bear the features as mentioned in the Gita.

 

regards,

Bhaskar.

Dear Niket

 

Just as we have body on earth and suffer even though we are made from the same

atma.

Same way, the atma has some body in different worlds which is given divine

sweets or hellish torture as per work.

The body remains till it does not merges into the self.

 

But I am more in favour of God having better ways to create improvements, which

is a little more illuminating than raw torture.

Even then, who am I do debate this. At best, I shall remember to keep pain

killers by my side. :-)
