Guest guest Posted September 29, 2001 Report Share Posted September 29, 2001 Om Gurave Namah Pranaam Guruji, Below is my attempt at part 2 of the Ista Devata lesson SR> 1.. Determine the Ista Devata in the following charts: SR> 2.. Sri Aurobindo Ghose 15 Aug, 1872 at about 1 ghati (i.e. 24 SR> minutes) before sunrise at Calcutta, India. Explain the reason SR> behind his great work Savitri (Savitur) and the interpretation of SR> the Rig Veda.[29 Sept 2001] According to JHL, the Sunrise on August 15, 1872 was at 5:12am. in Calcutta. Therefore Sri Aurobindo wasa born at 4:48am. (Karka lagna with Guru and Mangala in it). The Atmakaraka is Budha indicating a truthful, truth-saying person. It is placed in the 4th House from Navamsha Lagna indicating a Karma Yogi, a Great Doer; exalted Guru and Chandra are exchanging houses in Rasi chart, but Guru conjoins debilitated Mangala, and Chandra conjoins retrograde Sani. In Navamsa we have debilitated Guru in the 12th House with exalted Chandra conjoining Rahu and Atmakaraka conjoining Sani and Ketu. The Ista Devata sign is Dhanu, which is unoccupied, therefore Guru indicates the Ista Devata, or Sadashiva. The Ista Devata graha is situated in lagna and exalted, which I assume is just a fraction of indications explaining this great saint's doings. My too little knowledge does not allow me to make any further comments on this chart. Om Tat Sat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
