Guna of Signs

[Guest guest]

Jaya Jagannath

Dear Solai,

The trikona are mentioned for the Natural Zodiac and it is necessary to

study MOTHER NATURE FIRST AS SHE IS THE REAL SHAKTI LEADING TO BHAAGAVAN.

 

Now, Start with sunrise when the Sun is in the first house. Aries is the

first house of nature and the dharma trikona would be the fire signs...and

so on. Fire which is the physical representative of Agni Tatwa is the

remover of all sins and evils just like the purity of dharma removing the

weaknesses and sins of the past. Bhakta's like Prahalada and Srima Sarada

devi (w/o Ramakrishna Paramhamsa) can sit inside a burning pyre and recite

OM NAMO BHAGAVATE VASUDEVAYA. Vasu refers to the light or the purest form of

agnitatwa. (The reference is to Jupiter the greatest and representative of

God in Agni Rasi)

 

Now, come to midday when the Sun is in the tenth house and the natural sign

is Capricorn. The focus is on work and Karma Yoga. The signs are earthy and

materially focused forming the Artha Trikona. It is here that most men fall

and their Karma Yoga gets diverted to self gratification instead of

Nishkaama karma (work without the desire for fruit). Jupiter is in debility.

The great Bhakta's like Gajendra (King of the elephants) sing KLEEM

HRISHIKESHAYA NAMAH and ensure that Bhagavan comes riding the Bird Garuda

and removes them from sin that can cause such a terrible fall.

 

At sunset, the Sun is in the seventh house and the 7th house of nature is

Libra. This is the begining of desire that ultimately culminates in sex etc.

The native, having finished working, dreams of meeting spouse etc and

fulfills desires related to social and personal matters. The Airy signs can

make the mind travel to great depths and the imagination is vivid as the

desires will depend on what the mind has got wind of. Great Bhakta like

Narada Muni (who was touched by the arrow of Kama devata) will sing HARE

KRISHNA and will save themselves from these tormenting desires.

 

At midnight, all sleep and the trines to the bed is the 4th house called

Jala trikona. The Sun is in the 4th house and the water element is very

strong. The penultimate sleep symbolises Moksha and Jupiter in these signs

shows Bhagawan as sleeping on a bed or reclining on a couch. The Bhakta's

like Mahalakshmi and Shiva sing OM NAMO NARAYANAYA and attain Moksha.

 

Ayana refers to the direction of ones life and we know that MORNING SHOWS

THE DAY. So, the prayer/pooja we do in the morning is vital to directing our

efforts and path of life. This is done with the Gayatri Mantra's.

Maharishi's who aim for Moksha stand in a river with water in their hands,

JALA tatwa predominates in the Brahma Muhurta as they recite the gayatri.

Hold water in cupped hands and offer this to Bhagavan as you recite the

Gayatri mantra, then the Moksha ayana is obtained. If you hold a burning

lamp as a sign of offering while reciting the Gayatri, then Dharma trikona

re activated and the sins are washed away, ignorance goes and the light of

knowledge comes. Offering incense indicates the prithvi tatwa and the person

becomes a Karma Yogi while the offering of food fulfills all desires. Those

who aim for perfection in all the four ayana will hold a lotus or other

flower as an offering and recite the Gayatri. In this manner the ayana

should be understood with reference to the Tatwa.

 

With Best Wishes,

Sanjay Rath
