Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 || Hare Rama Krishna || Namaste Guru ji and other learned members, Please look at the second paragraph below and comment on the logic, I failed to come up with one...how can we wear blue sapphire to "ward off" moon ,and pearl to "ward off" effects of Jupiter..... Translation 79: Ill Stars and how to propitiate them by bestowal (dana)of gems: When the Sun is hostile (donate) a pure ruby; when the Moon, a goodpearl; when Mangala, a good coral; when Budha, a good emerald; whenBrihaspati, a good yellow sapphire; when Shukra, the diamond; whenShani, a good blue sapphire; when Rahu, the gomeda; and when Ketu, agood cat's eye, should be donatedTranslation 80-81: Ill Stars and how to ward them off by wearing(dharan) of gems:If the Sun is adverse, (wear) the cat's eye; if the Moon, the bluesapphire; if Mangala, the ruby; if Budha, the ruby too; if Vrihaspati,the pearl; if Shukra, the diamond; if Shani, the great blue sapphire;if Rahu, the gomeda, and if Ketu, the emerald, should be worn.

Guest guest Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 || Hare Rama Krishna || Namaste Guru ji, You know if we are able to find some link or logic between gems and nakshatras, that will be nothing short of "revolution" within Jyotish gemology. While no one can refute what Padma Purana is saying, in and itself has little relevant meaning besides generalizing such donations. Can't be the case I think. Have you experimented with colored diamonds? like yellow or pink etc...? Is there any reference mapping Bala Asura's body into 27 nakshatras? Maybe there is a clue....

Guest guest Posted February 21, 2006 Report Share Posted February 21, 2006 Jaya Jagannatha Dear Gaurav, Namaste I have recommended pink and yellow diamonds - J As for Bala asura’s body, it is not the gems that are formed BUT the parts of the body “snatched” by the devas, siddhas, yakshas, pisachas and nagas. I’ve recently found a sloka which I can relate to when it comes to the naga - mani. That is the stone found on the Narmada river. Beautiful array of colours and they do look like agates, but needs to be confirmed. Would you be able to get a sample and have it tested? The chief of the nagas worshipped Bala asura in a famous place. Would you know this place? And he also took Bala asura’s “talons” and scattered them over various holy mountains and in rivers flowing in the Northern region and from that was formed Pulaka. Does the place sound like the Narmada River? Pulaka can mean that it is a flaw or defect in the gem caused by a kind of insect or vermin of a Naga or of Kubera– this can also be the shaligram from the Gandaki River. The colours described in the GP is that of the stones from the Narmada River. However, some gemmy pieces will have transparency of the colour of conch, honey bee and arka. These that are flawless are conducive to increase in prosperity (the continuation of descendants can also be considered as such). I am also convinced somewhat that it maybe the andularia – the specks formed by gemmy feldspar in the Moonstone. Do give me your thoughts.
