Ishta devata have to be based on which sign and which planet occupies

that sign, So it need not be only vishnu swaroopas, I don't believe

that it should be of vishnu swaroopas, now this could spark people of

different sects to argue. So I would like to tell, for me in D9 from AK

12H is Karka sign, so moon is the graha, I like Devi matha.

Is this Moon/Cancer somehow connected to 4 from Karakamsa or 6 from AmK?

Namaste scholars,

Thanks for your responses , but somehow i think something is missing . I Mean some major blank i am feeling in this approach of finding gender of isht dev or other diety.You know among 16 vargas , D- 20 is uppasna varga ( for cross checking isht dev or other deities correctly). So why we dont apply this divisional chart at this stage .

 

Its more confusing that some take planets sign from navansha and some take in rashi chart.You know astrologer like - pt. dakshinamoorthy prescribes deity only from rashi chart by balancing 9th bhava and 5th bhava and there lords.So whats the proper way to get atleast -ISHT DEVTA ( without which no use of astrology , because divine light only comes from isht , that should be the sole aim of an astrologer).

 

You are all experience one , so please use some previous experiences of your clients and well knownones. Some stastical data will i think sort out this confusion . Datas of the worshiper of ishtdev according to different formulaes.( atleast in percentage ratio).

 

One question more - that how choose one planet if rahu or ketu also accompany istdev symbolic planet like moon in my case. can we also deduct degrees of nodes from 30 degree or not. In my case - moon is with rahu ( mean longitudes) in 12th from AK in navansh kundli. Moon is of 26 degree and rahu of 2 degree. ( so rahu becomes 28 degree if deducted). so please tell me which is my ISHTDEVTA. I am

confused !!!!

 

Y ou know if i take TRUE longitudes ( like mr.goel always advises), then only moon can be seen 12 th from the karkansha lagna.

 

SO MORE RESEARCHES ARE REQUIRED IN TABULAR AND DATA AND STASTICAL FORM IN ORDER TO FIX THE REAL DIVINE FORMULA FOR SEARCHING - THE ISHTDEV ( gender , mantra and all).

 

I AM CONFUSED !!!!

 

If possible tell my isht dev , so that i will do some sadhna for particular deity ( my own deity)

 

my data- 15 feb 1977, 12.15 pm , delhi.

 

Thanks,

Dear Rafal,

 

Moon is 4H from Karakamsa. I think you have an answer based on my reply. Please do so. I would like to learn.

 

But I am attaching a document for the rest of the students and seekers, I think it is from Guru Sanjay Rath.

 

Thanks

Dear Nitish,

Sanjay ji has taught this as well. Ketu being the moksha-karaka, look at planets aspecting Ketu in Navamsa and also in trines to Navamsa lagna, the strongest is like the Guru which will show the path towards Moksha.

Dear Nitish,

 

 

You said

Ketu is the mokshakaraka and hence the native attains Moksha. But 12th

is the house of Moksha and hence planets placed there should drive the

native towards Moksha (whether he attains it or not is another

question). Hence I do not think other planets do not lead the native

towards moksha.

Dear Nitish,

 

This does make sense, however, can one consider that one just

consciously keeps focussing at Ke (wherever in navamsa) if one doesnt

have it naturally and acquires moksha, without need of becoming

Jeevanmukta? Or isnt it that becoming Jeevanmukta is a step towards

acquiring moksha - like the activities of 4h and 8h are? Or is it that u

r stating that 12th from AK is a step towards moksha - if that's so,

that is agreeable.

 

I guess everyone is at a different level of evolution, in that sense,

bhakti (5h), gyana via guru (9h) etc. all are paths towards realisation

(ultimately - may be thru many lifetimes) of what That/Brahman Is - but

it's not all that wrong when we say that bhakti gives moksha and gyana

yoga gives moksha - i think the term moksha is used with all these paths

(4h/8h/5h/9h/12h activities) - may be add karma yoga - as all these, in

one way or the other, lead towards moksha - and are not synonymous with

Moksha - that is acquired only when that level of consciousness of

detachment or zero karmic balance (or state of performing nishkama

karma) is reached and one is permanently hooked to the Brahman.

 

Jaimini used the term Ishta for deity calculated form 12th from KK, but

isnt it actually that the term " Ishta " means the deity who one

likes/loves (to worship/serve) - like Kali was who Ramakrishna liked to

worship, but the Jaimini-Ishta was Sri Rama? May be Jaimini used the

term to signify the deity who we (should) like in order to put us on the

path to moksha (in whatever way - maybe by making us jeevanmukta).

 

Interesting to ponder though that in which lifetime(s) wud have

individuals like Guru Nanak, Meera, Adi Shankara, Srila Prabhupada,

Ramakrishna Paramhansa would have consciously focussed on Ke in their

navamsa to acquire that level of consciousness, else it must have

evolved Naturally.

||Namah Shivaya||Dear SS,

My humble thoughts and I am not an expert.

1.Ketu in Navamsa( as I described) , can show what path/planet can lead to Guru who will show the direction towards Moksha. Indeed there can be more than one but among these the one influencing the lagna will predominate. This path if followed can lead one to path of Moksha

2. What makes one follow the path of Spirituality,is seen by many combinations which include Ishta, AK, Kul, Sthana devta and Guru ; and Lagna, Dharma trikona, Moksha Trikona in D1,D9,D20,D60.

3.What helps attain Moksha?

a.AK is Atma, and KK in Navamsa

b.12th sign from KK is Jeevanmuktamsa

c.Ishta is 12th lord/planet from KK and guides towards Moksha, planets aspecting KK by rasi drishti can show deities leading towards Ishta. 12H in natural zodiac is Meena and ruled by Akaash tatva signified by Vishnu. The Ishta is thus Vishnu swaroop as He is considered Sarvavyapakesh. So the form is Vishnu. Understand it this way. The planet posited in Jeevanmuktamsa will look at its Pratyadi devta as the Ishta, so then the form has to be considered Sarvavyapakesh( like Vishnu) and if this planet is Surya then deity is Shiva and not necessarily Rama. Thus the importance of the planet posited in Jeevanmuktamsa.

d.Ke is Mokshakarak, hence planet who have a sambandha with it, will help increase bhakti towards Ishta.

e.Moksha can come if these two( Ishta + Ketu) have a connection

 

4.So how do we see this in a chart?

Look for sambandha between:

Ketu and Ishta devta in D9, if this is strong, Moksha can be attained.

 

Sanjay ji has also said that finally Punya gochar tells us if the person can attain Moksha.

Re:how to know male or female deity

 

 

 

Dear Nitish and Sharat,I am in agreement that Ke (mokshakaraka) 12th from karakamsa is indicative of moksha, however, i think we r talking about identifying the Ishta Devata (that drives one on to the path of moksha) that is calculated as per Jamini Sutras @ 12th from karakamsa - from planets posited / aspecting / lording the 12th from karakamsa, as the case may be. The guidance from the Istha wud put one on path towards attaining moksha - it is thus understood that whether or not moksha is attained wud depend on how effectively the native imbibes those changes after connecting with the said Ishta within the lifetime.

Quote Varga chakra pg. 214: To break free from the shackles of rebirth, the guidance and blessings of Ista gains significant importance....As the 12th house is concerned with Moksha/activities related to Moksha, the 12th hs from the karakamsa is to be seen for determination of Ishta.

Atman's desires are seen from 7th from karakamsa. Deity from the same is seen for detaching oneself or fulfilling the desires thus indicated.

Sharat, wrt what u mentioned, then there wud be quite some planets that wud influence the drive towards moksha (via Ke / navamsa lagna) - ok, we take the strongest, but then, what wud be the special significance of the 12th hs from AK in navamsa and planets in 12th hs from lagna of D-20 wrt moksha?

Quote Varga Chakra pg 72: The presence of benefics, Ju, Mo and Ve, as well as that of Ke, in the 12th hs of Vimsamsa chart, all but assure moksha of the native. The same is true if such planets are positioned in the 12th house from Karakamsa lagna (in navamsa) as well.Brgds,SSsohamsa , "Sharat" <gidoc wrote:>> > ||Namah Shivaya||> > Dear Nitish,> > Sanjay ji has taught this as well.

Dear nitish,

I am trying to recollect but there is a different scheme to see if you will be going to 7 lokas/patalas or narka. Are you referring to that...I will try remember exactly what it is!

So unless Ishta opens the door native would not reach there ...so isnt it vital that Ishta have a smabandha with Ketu? Otherwise how does it make a difference to me(AK) where Ketu is!

Best

Dear Nitish,

 

While your thoughts are crystal clear, the astrology behind them is

rather vague at best. Can you clarify a bit?

 

Specifically I dont understand the astrology behind your statement

that one must focus on Ketu in D-9 for moksha. Yes, Ketu is

mokshakaraka. But pardon my confused thinking here, but isnt Ketu's

moksha significatorship a naisargika significatorship? Naisargika

karakas are at the level of the mind, are they not? Ketu has a lot

of other naisargika significatorships not just moksha. But lets

agree with you (I assume you know, I dont) that it is Ketu's moksha

significatorship that is most evident in D-9. But " doing the right

things " (whatever they are, I assume you will tell us with

astrological justification) to highlight Ketu's role in D-9, will, I

suspect, only improve the mind's attitude towards moksha. The atma

has to be ready too, no?? For that the charakarakas have to be seen

(since that is how the Atma manifests, see Visti's wonderful posts a

while ago) and if Ketu has no relationship with 12th from AK in D-9,

I dont see exactly where the Ketu-highlighting path will lead.

Probably right back to the Ishta (the 12th from AK in D-9 kind of

Ishta, I mean). Of course, if Ketu already has a relationship, it's

a slam-dunk in the right direction (pardon the basketball lingo).

 

Would love to see an in-depth reply from you and anyone else who has

deep thoughts on this topic..

 

Sincerely,

 

Sundeep

Dear Sharat,

Thank you for your very detailed earlier post. You say:

 

" 1.Ketu in Navamsa( as I described) , can show what path/planet can

lead to Guru who will show the direction towards Moksha. Indeed

there can be more than one but among these the one influencing the

lagna will predominate. This path if followed can lead one to path

of Moksha "

 

Can you explain a bit more? Sounds similar to what I am saying - of

course everything spiritual is eventually the " path to Moksha " . What

I dont see is a comparative study of whether Ketu in D-9 shows a ?

faster?, ?quicker?, ?more true? path to Moksha than the 12th from AK

path, as shown in your other statement reproduced below. I still

dont understand at all how can Nitish make any statement of Ketu and

Moksha without including AK in it anywhere..

 

Sundeep

 

"

c.Ishta is 12th lord/planet from KK and guides towards Moksha,

planets aspecting KK by rasi drishti can show deities leading

towards Ishta. 12H in natural zodiac is Meena and ruled by Akaash

tatva signified by Vishnu. The Ishta is thus Vishnu swaroop as He is

considered Sarvavyapakesh. So the form is Vishnu. Understand it this

way. The planet posited in Jeevanmuktamsa will look at its Pratyadi

devta as the Ishta, so then the form has to be considered

Sarvavyapakesh( like Vishnu) and if this planet is Surya then deity

is Shiva and not necessarily Rama. Thus the importance of the planet

posited in Jeevanmuktamsa.

d.Ke is Mokshakarak, hence planet who have a sambandha with it, will

help increase bhakti towards Ishta.

Dear Sundeep,

Simply put:

In D9

Ketu-->Guru---> shows path towards Moksha

Ishta--> shows path to Moksha

Can Ketu do this all by itself..that is perhaps what nitish is saying. But unless Ketu connects with navamsa lagna or its trines, how will it connect with the native. It will if it shows the Guru.

Ishta can do it alone..yes perhaps ..as this is linked to AK

 

 

Sambandha between Ketu and Ishta will make it doubly easier..if you see what I mean.

Dear Sharat,

Its not that I dont see the syntactic difference in the two. Its at

the deeper semantic level that I cant see the *astrological* basis

at all of the only-Ketu story. Eventually, Moksha is the shedding of

the final bit of individuality (the soul itself) to merge with the

Supreme. As I understand Sanjayji (please correct me if I dont),

this exact thing (i.e. what-needs-to-be-done-to-shed-the-last-

vestige) is what is shown in 12th from Karakamsa in D-9. So whatever

is shown by the 12th from KK must be addressed in any quest for

Moksha, otherwise Moksha is impossible. So my question is how

exactly is Ketu addressing this. Give me the astrological term -

does Ketu have some secret dristi, secret lordship or what of 12th

from KK. Simply by influencing trines from Navamsa Lagna, I can see

it influence the dharma of the native to search for the right Guru.

But even the right Guru must eventually help the native face the

12th from KK requirements. Is it Ketu's moksha karakatwa then? Can

this secretly speed things up faster than what is implied by 12th

from KK? If so, then by analogy can I do something with natural AmK

Jupiter to improve my career, irrespective of whether Jupiter

influences the 10th house in my Rasi or dasamsa? Or similarly with

natural AK Sun to achieve my true goals in this life?

Dear SS,sharat,sundeep,

 

> Thus, we need to look at Ketu directly without any other sambandha

> except placement else we reach elsewhere.

Looking directly at Ketu with respect to its placement means,

looking through the eyes of the devata of the mantra you are reciting.

This means the mantra devata should sit in the same house where

your ketu is in navamsa or shashtyamsa etc. If this mantra devata is

also Ishta devata, it would start making sense to you as deeper

realizations.

With Ke in 10th in D-9, you may choose mantra of ishta devata such

that the mantra devata sits in 10th house. The relationship between

the source and sink houses will colour the experience.

This is just my opinion of how it works!

regards,

nitish

 

||Namah Shivaya||

 

Dear nitish,

 

I am trying to recollect but there is a different scheme to see if you

will be going to 7 lokas/patalas or narka. Are you referring to

that...I will try remember exactly what it is!

 

So unless Ishta opens the door native would not reach there ...so

isnt it vital that Ishta have a smabandha with Ketu? Otherwise how

does it make a difference to me(AK) where Ketu is!

 

Best

|| OM TAT SAT ||

Dear SS,

You have got it right. We need to worship ishta devata to guide our

inner journey towards the destination shown by Ketu and grant us wisdom.

nitish

Hardly get to see any mails, as was tied with runanubandhana.

earlier had more runa with these lists, so was able to contribute,

but due to increased runa with other forms of life, there is less

interaction.

 

coming to the point, it is futile to discuss moksha, untill you get

it. till that time it is like blind man showing direction to others,

which is a bigger crime than killing someone. so folks who have not

touched, tasted, smelt, felt, seen moksha, avoid unnecessary

debates. it is good for your health and peace of mind.

 

thanks
