Guest guest Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 Dear Sanjay Ji, I encountered a basic doubt relating 6th and 8th houses. 8th relates to debts and past bad karma, while 6th to shadripu, enemies etc. Still, 6th is in 11th from 8th which means it has the ability to destroy bad karma?? It is like saying that something bad destroys another bad thing!!! Please explain. Am I making a wrong inference or missing something? Ofcourse, we can also say that results of 8th (bad karma) is seen from 6th (Weaknesses) and then go on to saying that once 6th is cleaned up (by Tapas/5th), 8th loses potency and all the negative karma are destroyed instantaneously. This will imply that it is not the 8th but the 6th which is the most binding house and also the primary house which gets affected by Tapas (5th house). And then, we can go on to saying that it is 3rd which is even worse because it destroys 5th house/Tapas. Finally, self destroys 3rd => Real-Self Effort!!! Then, I understand Hare Rama Krishna as a shortcut having dual-effect on 5th and 6th using this line of reasoning, provided it is close to correctness. waiting for reply, nitish Mail is new and improved - Check it out!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Hare Krishna Dear Nitish, Dont forget that the 6/8th house have MANY significations. For example: 8thhouse ishouse of longevity, but 6th is house of disease(or lack of) 6th house is among other things house of work.Shows who we serve,how we serve, and our servants. 8th house is also house of inheritance,gains from marriage for ladies. Also keep in mind.that any planets in 6/8th house -or any house-aspect the 7th there from influenceing that house as well.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 -Hare Krishna Dear Nitish, im not sure if i addressed your quiry, but another idea is this: The 7th house is house of rebirth as the planets in it are the cuase of our rebirth. So tapas should be addressed to that house. If tapas if focus on 7th then the 6th falls in the 12 frm it, and the 8th house(knowledge of rebirth etc) is in the second therefrom. Also lagna has to be involved as that is the self. so many ways to think of it.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 || OM Hring GhriniH Suryaaditya OM || Dear Lakshmi ji, Thanks for your answers but my query remains unanswered. My intent was to understand the underlying philosophy and inter-relationship behind the 6th and 8th houses without getting lost in the total set of potentialities offered by either of them. In fact, every single of the multple significations offered by a house will be in line with its basic philosophy. E.g. longevity is directly related to ones' past karma, and service if done for Narayana, instead of ones' senses and weaknesses, is no effort! Further, (re)birth is because of sense desires (7th). Tapas (5th) destroys desires (7th) and cleanses the sensory attachments/bindings (6th) => tapas is related to 5th house. Getting back to the point, my core intent is to thoroughly understand 3rd house for understanding these four most potent mantras: - 1. Om Namah Shivaya || 3->6 2. Hare Rama Krishna || 3->6 3. Om Tat Sat || 3->5 4. Om Namo Narayanaya || 3->8 These great mantras give a crucial hint to the utmost significance and power of 3rd house - as all of them have 3 letters and have been used to achieve everything one ever wished!!! In my opinion, 3rd is the single most significant house in the horoscope as it shows self-effort - starting from thinking to breathing to any other action, all of which ends (11th from 3rd is 1st) to give an experience of self - which is everything of your own self. It is also the basic frequency of relating to Hara i.e. how ones' efforts (3rd) are related to ones' self (1st) is similar to how ones' self (1st) is related to Hara (11th) or Shiva, which is the ultimate reality. Know the primal force and you know the primal cause.

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Dear Nitish, Your point about the action of the three manthras on the 3rd house is worth spending time on. I have understood these in following manner from the books written by Shri Sanjay Rath and also from the many interactions in the group; The 3rd house signifies energy (the loss of which causes death i.e 2nd house). That is the prime reason for the 2nd being a maraka house.The third house also signifies the physical act of intercourse and also parakrama both of which results in a loss of energy.The Maharishis stressed on the preservation of semen and sexual energy to redirect them in the pursuit of higher goals and thats the main rule that is followed by the Brahmacharya Ashrama and Sanyasa. The world is in chaos today because of ignorance of this principle and gross misuse of this vital life force.The sexual act has such great energy involved that some species of insects even lose their lives after the act. Energy or vitality can be lost in factors signified by the natural third house i.e Gemini. The natural third indicates sexual union amongst other base activities/environments(dancing houses or brothels). The sadakshari manthras draw energy from the third house and pass it onto the sixth house thereby redirecting the energy that may be utilized in sex/parakrama(3rd house) to clearing the shad-ripus that stand in the way of the Jeeva in realizing its true nature as a part and parcel of the Supreme Lord. In the case of the famous Astakshari, OM NAMO NARAYANAYA, the energy is used to clear the past karma i.e the native will dovetail his energies toward serving Sriman Narayana, which is the only way to completely eradicate past karma (good or bad).This will lead one to surrender to the Supreme Lord.

Guest guest Posted June 30, 2004 Report Share Posted June 30, 2004 Dear Sudarshan ji, I completely agree to the points you made in your mail. However, I would like to use the word " primal impulse " instead of " energy/vitality " for 3rd house related affairs (significator Mars). In my opinion, energy/vitality has more to do with lagna/lagna lord than 3rd house. On the other hand, the functional nature of impulse remains the same irrespective of weakness/strength of a person(defined in terms of his energy levels/vitality). Even the weakest of the human-being has the same " primal impulse " , and the control of that " impulse " is shown by influences on Mars, leading to BrahmaCharya. So a physically weak person can be as much of a BrahmaChari as a strong person. Then, mantras use the power of this impulse and redirect it to other houses.
