To All:

 

In the Shrimad Bhagavatam, there is a story of Syamantaka jewel that

was given by the king of Dvaraka, along with his daughter, to Krishna

for marriage. The jewel was noted for creating nine mounds of gold

on a daily basis for those who held the jewel. The general

population also benefited in that the weather became ideal, and kept

away any natural disasters including plagues and pestilence.

 

Krishna knew by his intuition that the king wanted this jewel for

himself. So, as a concession, Krishna gave back the jewel and

suggested that it should be kept in the city temple.

 

Then, one day Krishna had to leave the city to followup on his

relatives in another location. When Krishna was gone, a conspiracy

by the king's enemies brewed up to steal the jewel from the king.

The conspirators included a person who lusted for the king's daughter

and wanted to take her away from Krishna. The uncle of Krishna was

also involved in this conspiracy. Eventually, the conspirators

killed the king and took the jewel away.

 

To make a long story short, Krishna soon came back to the city and

killed the main instigator of the conspiracy. However, Krishna found

out that the jewel was not in the man's possession. Rather, it was

kept by Krishna's uncle. By this time, his uncle moved out of the

city for fear of reprisal from Krishna. Since the jewel was no

longer in the city, the population started to suffer in terms of

health and wealth.

 

In keeping with family tradition, Krishna negotiated with his uncle

to return to the city and appease the people's complaints. Upon the

uncle's return, Krishna gatherd the people together and stated that

from now on the jewel will be kept by uncle while he stays in the

city.

 

It is said that those who hear this story will gain benefits from its

message.

 

If anyone is interested, it would be a priviledge for me to analyze

the meaning of this message in terms of jyotish principles. Please,

let me know.

 

Regards,

 

John R.
