To Saurav - Revisit the Muhurt chosen + addnl information

[Guest guest]

Swee bahen, Namaste !

 

First let me confess! I am always awestuck whenever i see your

messages quoting Garuda Puran, Padma Puran and many other encient

treasures.

 

Secondly, there is a misunderstanding in understanding my message. I

have tried to draw the attention to the " Mritubhaga Placement " of

both the graha. The word " with in Trimsamsa " is mentioned to

highlight that the placement is extremely close to MB hence It is

not the D30 Chart which i intend to discuss about the Muhurt.

 

There should not be any dowbt about your advise about muhurt as you

must have given the best possible suggetions.

 

As per Sourav, His Ketu is in " Devalokamsha " in Dasvarga but on my

PC it shows in " Simhasanamsha " . am i seeing something wrong?

 

--------------------------------

On a different note - Toaday's date is 06.10.2006 -- The basic No &

Total both comes to 6 which is a representative of " Venus " inn

western numerology.

 

Vaar is " Shukrawar " coupled with Poornima.

 

In my opinion,a very auspicious day to worship mother " MahaLakshmi "

especially for those having Mithuna & Makara lagna or in whose chart

venus becomes Ishata.

 

these are my intutive thoughts or rather conviction and there are no

references from classics or any other author to support it.

 

Warm regards,

 

Utpal Pathak

Om Gurave Namah

 

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Sourav’s Ketu is in Paaraawat vaiseshikamsa whichever settings you may choose, where nodes are concerned.

Isn’t mrityu bhaga connected only with the Moon? Perhaps I’m mistaken. For a muhurta, if Venus, Jupiter or the waxing Moon are in the lagna or in the 11th from lagnamsa or in kendras, then the 11 big doshas are destroyed. The oversight was in the placements of planets in the 9th on Sourav’s part. In the 2nd option, the placement of Venus on the ascendant with the debiltated Sun gives much strength to Lakshmi.

 

Love,

Swee

Swee bahen, Namaste !

 

First let me confess! I am always awestuck whenever i see your

messages quoting Garuda Puran, Padma Puran and many other encient

treasures.

 

Secondly, there is a misunderstanding in understanding my message. I

have tried to draw the attention to the " Mritubhaga Placement " of

both the graha. The word " with in Trimsamsa " is mentioned to

highlight that the placement is extremely close to MB hence It is

not the D30 Chart which i intend to discuss about the Muhurt.

 

There should not be any dowbt about your advise about muhurt as you

must have given the best possible suggetions.

 

As per Sourav, His Ketu is in " Devalokamsha " in Dasvarga but on my

PC it shows in " Simhasanamsha " . am i seeing something wrong?

 

-------------------------

On a different note - Toaday's date is 06.10.2006 -- The basic No &

Total both comes to 6 which is a representative of " Venus " inn

western numerology.

 

Vaar is " Shukrawar " coupled with Poornima.

 

In my opinion,a very auspicious day to worship mother " MahaLakshmi "

especially for those having Mithuna & Makara lagna or in whose chart

venus becomes Ishata.

 

these are my intutive thoughts or rather conviction and there are no

references from classics or any other author to support it.

 

Warm regards,

 

Utpal Pathak

Swee Bahen,

 

Your point about venus is good one and i do agree with the

universally accepted principle of Guru & Shukra in Lagna warding off

many evils.

 

As per best of my informations, Moon is not the only one who can get

affected by MB. Each planet including Asc can be affected and each

has a separate MB Degree in all the rashi. correct me if i am wrong.

 

Now Sourva has chosen following Muhurt

 

> October 10, 2006, 15:33(4:00 West of GMT), Greenbelt, USA,

76W52'33 " ,

> 39N00'16 "

 

in the above, S/w in my PC shows 5.00 West of GMT insteatd of

4.00...I request Sourav to clarify on that.

 

Considering 5.00 west of GMT i Suggested following Muhurt to Sourav

5 Jan 2007, Early Morning 3.50 (am), Greenbelt USA, 76W52'33,

39N00'16. 5.00 WEST of GMT.

 

I request you to look at it as i chose it after lot of thoughts.

 

---

 

Regarding Sourav's KETU the discrepancies doesn't die as we all

three are getting different Vesheshikamsha. as per sourav it's

Devalok, as per you it is Parvata & My 2 pc's shows Simhasan in

Dashvarga & Kanduka in Shodashvarga.

 

It is important to note that I'll be very happy if Ketu is in

Devalokamsha. I am just stretching this as to find out the reason.

 

I may request others also to see on their PCs.

 

Regards,

yours

 

Utpal Pathak

[Guest guest]

Namaste Swee Bahen, More than a year back Narasimha Garu had sent a complete table for MB. I am reproducing it to the list Reagrds, Utpal [[Each planet has one specific degree as its Mrityu Bhaga (death-inflicting degree) in each sign. For Rahu, MB in Aq is the 18th degree. For Moon, what you said is correct, i.e. MB in Aq is the 5th degree, if one goes by Phala Deepika. If one goes by Jataka Parijatam and

Sarvartha Chintamani, Moon's MB in Aq is the 20th degree. For those who understand C and C++ computer languages, here are the complete tables defining the MB of each planet in each sign: // As per Jataka Parijatam and Sarvartha Chintamani: double MrityuBhagaDegree1 [NUM_RASIS] ={// Ar Ta Ge Cn Le Vi Li Sc Sg Cp Aq Pi { 20, 9, 12, 6, 8, 24, 16, 17, 22,

2, 3, 23 }, // Sun { 8, 25, 22, 22, 21, 1, 4, 23, 18, 20, 20, 10 }, // Moon { 19, 28, 25, 23, 29, 28, 14, 21, 2, 15, 11, 6 }, // Mars { 15, 14, 13, 12, 8, 18, 20, 10, 21, 22, 7, 5 }, // Merc { 19, 29, 12, 27, 6, 4, 13, 10, 17, 11, 15, 28 }, // Jup { 28, 15, 11, 17, 10, 13, 4, 6, 27, 12, 29, 19 }, // Ven { 10, 4, 7, 9, 12, 16, 3, 18, 28, 14, 13, 15 }, // Sat { 14, 13, 12, 11, 24, 23, 22, 21, 10, 20, 18, 8 }, // Rahu { 8, 18, 20, 10, 21, 22, 23, 24, 11, 12, 13, 14 }, // Ketu { 23, 24, 11, 12, 13, 14, 8, 18, 20, 10, 21, 22 }, // Mandi { 1, 9, 22, 22, 25, 2, 4, 23, 18, 20, 24, 10 } // Asc}; // As per Phala Deepika double MrityuBhagaDegree2 [NUM_RASIS] ={// Ar Ta Ge Cn Le Vi Li Sc Sg Cp Aq Pi { 20, 9, 12, 6, 8, 24, 16, 17, 22, 2, 3, 23 }, // Sun { 26, 12, 13, 25, 24, 11, 26, 14, 13, 25, 5, 12 }, // Moon { 19, 28, 25, 23,

I am just stretching

this as to find out the reason.I may request others also to see on their PCs.Regards,yoursUtpal Pathaksohamsa <sohamsa%40> , Swee Chan <sweechan wrote:>> Om Gurave Namah> > Dear Utpl Bhai,> Namaste> > Sourav’s Ketu is in Paaraawat vaiseshikamsa whichever settings yo may> choose, where nodes are concerned.> Isn’t mrityu bhaga connected only with the Moon?

Om Gurave Namah

 

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Thank you for looking into the TZ of Greenbelt. Which bhagas do you follow? There are conflicting views from different classics.

 

Love,

 

Swee

Swee Bahen,

 

Your point about venus is good one and i do agree with the

universally accepted principle of Guru & Shukra in Lagna warding off

many evils.

 

As per best of my informations, Moon is not the only one who can get

affected by MB. Each planet including Asc can be affected and each

has a separate MB Degree in all the rashi. correct me if i am wrong.

 

Now Sourva has chosen following Muhurt

 

> October 10, 2006, 15:33(4:00 West of GMT), Greenbelt, USA,

76W52'33 " ,

> 39N00'16 "

 

in the above, S/w in my PC shows 5.00 West of GMT insteatd of

4.00...I request Sourav to clarify on that.

 

Considering 5.00 west of GMT i Suggested following Muhurt to Sourav

5 Jan 2007, Early Morning 3.50 (am), Greenbelt USA, 76W52'33,

39N00'16. 5.00 WEST of GMT.

 

I request you to look at it as i chose it after lot of thoughts.

 

-------------------------

 

Regarding Sourav's KETU the discrepancies doesn't die as we all

three are getting different Vesheshikamsha. as per sourav it's

Devalok, as per you it is Parvata & My 2 pc's shows Simhasan in

Dashvarga & Kanduka in Shodashvarga.

 

It is important to note that I'll be very happy if Ketu is in

Devalokamsha. I am just stretching this as to find out the reason.

 

I may request others also to see on their PCs.

 

Regards,

yours

 

Utpal Pathak

[Guest guest]

Om Gurave Namah

 

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Since you’ve had a year to work with the differences, which, in your opinion works best for you – JP has worked best for me?

As for C n C++, a step at a time may help the likes of me :-))

 

Love,

 

Swee

Namaste Swee Bahen,

 

More than a year back Narasimha Garu had sent a complete table for MB. I am reproducing it to the list

 

Reagrds,

 

Utpal

 

[[Each planet has one specific degree as its Mrityu Bhaga (death-inflicting degree) in each sign.

 

For Rahu, MB in Aq is the 18th degree. For Moon, what you said is correct, i.e. MB in Aq is the 5th degree, if one goes by Phala Deepika. If one goes by Jataka Parijatam and Sarvartha Chintamani, Moon's MB in Aq is the 20th degree.

 

For those who understand C and C++ computer languages, here are the complete tables defining the MB of each planet in each sign:

 

// As per Jataka Parijatam and Sarvartha Chintamani:

double MrityuBhagaDegree1 [NUM_RASIS] =

{

// Ar Ta Ge Cn Le Vi Li Sc Sg Cp Aq Pi

{ 20, 9, 12, 6, 8, 24, 16, 17, 22, 2, 3, 23 }, // Sun

{ 8, 25, 22, 22, 21, 1, 4, 23, 18, 20, 20, 10 }, // Moon

{ 19, 28, 25, 23, 29, 28, 14, 21, 2, 15, 11, 6 }, // Mars

{ 15, 14, 13, 12, 8, 18, 20, 10, 21, 22, 7, 5 }, // Merc

{ 19, 29, 12, 27, 6, 4, 13, 10, 17, 11, 15, 28 }, // Jup

{ 28, 15, 11, 17, 10, 13, 4, 6, 27, 12, 29, 19 }, // Ven

Om Gurave Namah

 

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Thank you for looking into the TZ of Greenbelt. Which bhagas do you follow? There are conflicting views from different classics.

 

Love,

 

Swee

Swee Bahen ,

 

Your point about venus is good one and i do agree with the

universally accepted principle of Guru & Shukra in Lagna warding off

many evils.

 

As per best of my informations, Moon is not the only one who can get

affected by MB. Each planet including Asc can be affected and each

has a separate MB Degree in all the rashi. correct me if i am wrong.

 

Now Sourva has chosen following Muhurt

 

> October 10, 2006, 15:33(4:00 West of GMT), Greenbelt, USA,

76W52'33 " ,

> 39N00'16 "

 

in the above, S/w in my PC shows 5.00 West of GMT insteatd of

4.00...I request Sourav to clarify on that.

 

Considering 5.00 west of GMT i Suggested following Muhurt to Sourav

5 Jan 2007, Early Morning 3.50 (am), Greenbelt USA, 76W52'33,

39N00'16. 5.00 WEST of GMT.

 

I request you to look at it as i chose it after lot of thoughts.

 

-------------------------

 

Regarding Sourav's KETU the discrepancies doesn't die as we all

three are getting different Vesheshikamsha. as per sourav it's

Devalok, as per you it is Parvata & My 2 pc's shows Simhasan in

Dashvarga & Kanduka in Shodashvarga.

 

It is important to note that I'll be very happy if Ketu is in

Devalokamsha. I am just stretching this as to find out the reason.

 

I may request others also to see on their PCs.

 

Regards,

yours

Om Gurave NamahDear Utpal Bhai,NamasteSince you’ve had a year to work with the differences, which, in your opinion works best for you – JP has worked best for me? As for C n C++, a step at a time may help the likes of me :-))Love,SweeOn 10/7/06 4:11 AM, "Utpal Pathak" <vedic_pathak wrote:

Namaste Swee Bahen, More than a year back Narasimha Garu had sent a complete table for MB. I am reproducing it to the list Reagrds, Utpal [[Each planet has one specific degree as its Mrityu Bhaga (death-inflicting degree) in each sign. For Rahu, MB in Aq is the 18th degree. For Moon, what you said is correct, i.e. MB in Aq is the 5th degree, if one goes by Phala Deepika. If one goes by Jataka Parijatam and Sarvartha Chintamani, Moon's MB in Aq is the 20th degree.

Swee Bahen ,Your point about venus is good one and i do agree with the universally accepted principle of Guru & Shukra in Lagna warding off many evils.As per best of my informations, Moon is not the only one who can get affected by MB. Each planet including Asc can be affected and each has a separate MB Degree in all the rashi. correct me if i am wrong.Now Sourva has chosen following Muhurt> October 10, 2006, 15:33(4:00 West of GMT), Greenbelt, USA,76W52'33",> 39N00'16"in the above, S/w in my PC shows 5.00 West of GMT insteatd of 4.00...I request Sourav to clarify on that.Considering 5.00 west of GMT i Suggested following Muhurt to Sourav5 Jan 2007, Early Morning 3.50 (am), Greenbelt USA, 76W52'33, 39N00'16. 5.00 WEST of GMT.I request you to look at it as i chose it after lot of thoughts.-------------------------Regarding Sourav's KETU the discrepancies doesn't die as we all three are getting different Vesheshikamsha. as per sourav it's Devalok, as per you it is Parvata & My 2 pc's shows Simhasan in Dashvarga & Kanduka in Shodashvarga.It is important to note that I'll be very happy if Ketu is in Devalokamsha.

Om Gurave Namah

 

Dear Sanjay ji,

Namaste

 

Thank you for this tid bit. 3 free readings today....all of them women one on anxiety, the next is on the question about healing and the other is that in her dream a sadhu told her to go to India to find him. In the background, the Moon was full and round with bluish hue – she wanted to know if she should go to Hrishikesh or to Vrindavan!

 

Whilst on the subject of luminaries, I recall that you were going to teach us Sunrise, Sunrise when you are in East Coast. My Jhora settings are on “apparent”. If you have already taught this, can the information be shared please?

 

Love,

Swee

Dear Swee

 

The tables are exactly the same in both Phala Dipika and Jataka Parijatha except for the Moon - perhaps hinting at use in Prasna as well.

Best wishes and warm regards,

Sanjay Rath

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Since you’ve had a year to work with the differences, which, in your opinion works best for you – JP has worked best for me?

As for C n C++, a step at a time may help the likes of me :-))

 

Love,

 

Swee

Namaste Swee Bahen,

 

 

More than a year back Narasimha Garu had sent a complete table for MB. I am reproducing it to the list

 

 

Reagrds,

 

 

Utpal

 

 

[[Each planet has one specific degree as its Mrityu Bhaga (death-inflicting degree) in each sign.

 

 

For Rahu, MB in Aq is the 18th degree. For Moon, what you said is correct, i.e. MB in Aq is the 5th degree, if one goes by Phala Deepika. If one goes by Jataka Parijatam and Sarvartha Chintamani, Moon's MB in Aq is the 20th degree.

 

 

 

For those who understand C and C++ computer languages, here are the complete tables defining the MB of each planet in each sign:

Dear Utpal Bhai,

Namaste

 

Thank you for looking into the TZ of Greenbelt. Which bhagas do you follow? There are conflicting views from different classics.

 

Love,

 

Swee

Swee Bahen ,

 

Your point about venus is good one and i do agree with the

universally accepted principle of Guru & Shukra in Lagna warding off

many evils.

 

As per best of my informations, Moon is not the only one who can get

affected by MB. Each planet including Asc can be affected and each

has a separate MB Degree in all the rashi. correct me if i am wrong.

 

Now Sourva has chosen following Muhurt

 

> October 10, 2006, 15:33(4:00 West of GMT), Greenbelt, USA,

76W52'33 " ,

> 39N00'16 "

 

in the above, S/w in my PC shows 5.00 West of GMT insteatd of

4.00...I request Sourav to clarify on that.

 

Considering 5.00 west of GMT i Suggested following Muhurt to Sourav

5 Jan 2007, Early Morning 3.50 (am), Greenbelt USA, 76W52'33,

39N00'16. 5.00 WEST of GMT.

 

I request you to look at it as i chose it after lot of thoughts.

 

-------------------------

 

Regarding Sourav's KETU the discrepancies doesn't die as we all

three are getting different Vesheshikamsha. as per sourav it's

Devalok, as per you it is Parvata & My 2 pc's shows Simhasan in

Dashvarga & Kanduka in Shodashvarga.

 

It is important to note that I'll be very happy if Ketu is in

Devalokamsha. I am just stretching this as to find out the reason.

 

I may request others also to see on their PCs.

 

Regards,

yours
