Rahu and Ketu - Dristi

[Guest guest]

OM GURAVE NAMAHDear Visti & Frank,

 

Also: Sat Siri Kindly note the contents of this letter:

 

The drishti or sight is based on the 'desires' of the conscious mind. This is the basis of Graha drishti. Sometimes the aspect of Saturn or another evil planet can cause Paapa Drishti and for this we have various remedial measures for removing the evils. This can also indicate the anger of someone or a silent hate like Mars or Saturn respectively. Desire is seen from Graha drishti. As explained in a recent lesson, the seventh house is the seat of the desires of the heart. That is why all the planets have an aspect on the seventh house i.e. they have conscious desires in the mind that they wish to achieve. Ketu being the Moksha Karaka does not have a head and hence, cannot see. In other words, Ketu does not have Graha Drishti or cannot have desires. Unless Ketu has this peculiar ability of NO-GRAHA DRISHTI, how can it qualify as the Moksha Karaka? Unless the desires are fully removed, there can be no Moksha. That is why all the eight planets from Sun to Rahu have drishti and hence also qualify as the Chara Karaka. Ketu who does not have Graha drishti, fails to qualify as a Chara Karaka. We know that the Chara Karakas represent animate souls in this planet. So, if a soul has got Moksha, what is it doing out here?? That is also the reson for removing Ketu from the list of Chara Karaka.

 

Now after having determined that the Graha have Drishti on the seventh house (except Ketu), we then go on to define special aspects... I have done this. In case the class needs this again, I can oblige.

 

Rasi Drishti is the aspect of the signs. It indicates a permanent relationship or Yoga of planets/signs by "being in these houses/ signs". This is sure to happen.

 

With Best Regards,Sanjay Rath

Dear Frank.

Yes those are the 'dristi's', we seem to have accepted.

Best wishes, Visti.
