Namaste Aavesh and All:

 

The story is telling us that the Syamantaka Jewel is our brains and

shows us how our brains are to be maintained at the spiritual and

material level to gain the support of Nature while being active in

the world.

 

Like a jewel, the potential of the brain's power lies in reflecting

the power of the Sun, the significator of enlightenment that provides

light to dispel the darkness of ignorance. Our brain is the

repository of the soul and the mechanism of the senses that allow us

to perceive the world.

 

At the spiritual level, we are to maintain our brain to gain

knowledge of cosmic significance. Thus, we see in the story that the

king is signified by the 9th house. His jewel is the second house

from the 9th or the 10th house.

 

Krishna stated that the jewel should be maintained at the temple of

the city. Thus, in jyotish, this temple is the 4th house from the

9th house, or the 12th house.

 

In the mundane chart or the individual chart, the 12th house is the

field for attaining higher levels of consciousness. It is the house

signifying meditation. It is a field signifying the loss of material

possessions, including our own thoughts. Anyone who has access to

this level of knowledge gains the benefits of Nature's blessings.

And, this is realized by the argalas that are activated when the 12th

house is strengthened.

 

Specifically, we increase the potential for unearned gains or friends

since the 11th house acquires argala from the 12th house. Also, we

gain insights concerning the practice of our beliefs or religion

since the 9th house acquires argala from the 12th house. We can go

through the progression of argalas to the various houses and

determine how the benefits are gained.

 

The story, however, tells of the conspiracy that transpired against

the king. We will discuss the jyotish principles involved in my next

posting.

 

Regards,
