Guest guest Posted May 27, 2001 Report Share Posted May 27, 2001 Namaste, The Sun is the lifeforce of the solar system, without which nothing else would live. For this reason the Sun represents God and the soul. The Moon is a mere reflection of the Sun. That is why Krishna the ultimate godhead has Sun as the Atmakaraka. regards, Alex J varahamihira, jaan911@h... wrote: > For the chart of Bhagavan Sri Krishna why is the Atmakaraka the sun? > > I would have thought that a night birth with the exalted moon as > Atmakaraka would be more fitting. > > Any comments? > > love > Jaan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Om Jaya Jagannatha Namaste Jaan & Alex, The Ak for Bhagavan Sri Krishna is the Mo. Moons Dasavatar is Sri Krishna. The Ak for Sri Rama is Sun. Thus we have the tripod in any chart as Lagna, Sun & Moon. Lagna represents Hare(Vishnu), the Sun represents Rama and Moon represents Sri Krishna. The same Hare(M) Rama(A) Krishna(U) constitute a sylabble each to form AUM, the mantra of Bhagavad Gita. God is everywhere and everything is Him. He is part and parcel of everything. So we cannot isolate and element of a chart and say *this represents god*. The ultimate aim is YOGA or the union of JeevaAtma & ParamaAtma. How this is done, is by praying to IshtaDevata, as he guides people to their ultimate destination, and this is found by taking the 12H from AK in Navamsa.

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Namaste, Knowledgeable gurus please correct me if I am wrong, but I will attempt to answer one of the questions. The Atmakaraka shows God's influence on the owner of the chart. Moon represents Krishna himself, as is indicated by the exalted Moon in the ascendant. So in your chart, if Moon is the Atmakaraka, this indicates Krishna as your guiding deity. But within Krishna's own chart, Moon, representing himself, does not need to be the deity guiding him. The Sun represents God in his purest form, as he is the natural Atmakaraka and significator for God in all charts. Who else but the Sun should be the Atmakaraka of Krishna? As to the other questions we need to hear the answer from someone more spiritually qualified. I am not sure of the distinction between God and the soul indicated by Atmakaraka. On one level they are the same, but on another God is infintely large and the soul so small... regards, Alex J varahamihira, jaan911@h... wrote: > Thanks for clearing that up Alex. > > So what would you say can be said about anyone in general who had the > sun as their atmakaraka ? > > I think i can grasp why the atmakaraka represents the soul of the > individual, the position, state and influences on the atamakraka can > give a clue as to one karma. > > but i am not sure how the Atmakaraka represents god in the chart. > can you shine some light on the difference between representing ones > soul in the chart and representing god in the chart? > > how can god be represented in the chart anyway ? what can we find out > by knowing how god is represented in the chart? > > since it has been quoted that the moon represents Sri Krishna, > shouldn't the moon be his atmakaraka since he is incarnated in that > form ? > > love > Jaan > > > > varahamihira, " Alex J " <lostinmotion@h...> wrote: > > Namaste, > > > > The Sun is the lifeforce of the solar system, without which nothing > > else would live.
