Lesson on Phonemes

[Guest guest]

Om Gurave Namah,

Om Namah Shivaya,

Dear Guruji,

Here is my attempt for the lesson,

> Assignment:

> 1. Determine the number of phonemes in the following names & give

your inferences:

> (a) (i) Solai

So|lai

2 Phonemes, Movable rashi,

 

(ii) Phyllis

Phy|lli|s

(taking y as i as pronounced)

3 phonemes, dual

 

(iii) Phyl

Phy|l

2 phonemes, Movable signs are strong

 

 

(iv) Narasimha

Na|ra|si|mha|

4 phonemes, Fixed signs strong

 

(v) Robert

Ro|be|rt

3 phonemes,dual signs strong

 

(vi) Patraka

Pa|tra|ka|

3 phonemes, dual signs are strong

 

(vii) Brendan

Bre|nda|n

3 phonemes, dual signs are strong.

 

 

> (b) (i) Bill

Bi|ll

2 phonemes, so movables strong

 

(ii) William and indicate the advantage of using the name Bill in the

chart of Bill Clinton.

 

Wi|llia|m

3 phonemes, so dual strong

Bill clinton's chart is CAncer lagna which is movable sign so Bill

name helped him.

 

 

 

> © What is the impact of the two different names for a country -

examine (i) India & Bharat or any other example.

 

India pronounced Indiya

Indi|ya|

2 phonemes, so movable

 

for Ta lagna India it's 3H,6H,9H,12H

 

Bha|ra|t

3 phonemes, so dual it 2H,5H,8H,11H

11H is Pi(Maharishi sign) with AL

so 3 phonemes are better as it activates better houses.

 

(Thanks Narayan Iyer for help here)

 

 

 

> 2. Determine the number of phonemes in the following mantra:

> (a) Om namo bhagavate vasudevaaya

 

Om| na|mo| bha|ga|va|te| va|su|de|vaa|ya

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

 

12 phonemes

 

 

> (b) Om namo Naarayanaya

 

Om| na|mo| Naa|ra|ya|na|ya

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

8 phonemes

 

> © Which is the correct Shiva Panchakshari (pancha means FIVE &

Akshara means phoneme) Mantra

(i) Om namah Shivaaya OR

in pronouciation

the h in namah is silent vowel so writing as pronounced

Om| na|ma Shi|vaa|ya

1 2 3 4 5 6

6 phonemes

 

(ii) Namah Sivaaya

 

the h is silent vowel here also so,

Na|ma si|vaa|ya

1 2 3 4 5

5 phonemes

so this is the right 5 lettered mantra

 

> (d) Which is the correct Vishnu astakshari mantra? Hint (Ashta

means eight & akshara means phoneme)

(i) Om namo naarayanaya OR

Om na|mo naa|ra|ya|na|ya

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

8 Phonemes

so this is right astakshari

 

(ii) Om hreem naarayanaya namah OR

take m in hreem as vowel as per rule

Om hreem| naa|ra|ya|na|ya na|ma (h is silent in pronounciation)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

9 phonemes

 

(iii) Om namo naraayanaya namah

 

Om na|mo na|raa|ya|na|ya na|ma| (h is silent in pronounciation)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

 

10 phonemes
