Niryana Shoola Dasa

Dear Jyotisha

 

Hare Krishna

 

The Niryana Shoola Dasa works perfectly in my case.If its expected to show death, the death(transformation) experienced is of material qualities and areas of life indicated by the Arudhas. The Arudhas should indicate that which is not true but which is manifest in this world as a reality. My humble take is that when we run the Niryana shoola dasa of a house wherein arudhas connected to spirituality (A8, A5, A9, AL) are housed there would be very special experiences. In the case of Swami Sivananda, his Sg dasa should have been one of significance because it houses the A8. This would awaken the Kundalini and put the native through intense process of understanding who they are and who Sri Jagannatha is atleast to the extent of their adhikara.

 

..In my case I am currently running the dasa of the sign housing the AL and I would go as far as saying that this has been the most transformative time where the experiences have been very intense and deep. My sadhana has been intense and there have been amazing benedictions bestowed by my parampara (Srila Prabhupada) and my Gurudeva. Needless to say, I am also running the Moola Antara dasa of my AK(seen from the Moon) which is also capable of this., But the experiences started almost on par with the NSD of my AL.To add the AL is aspected by the AK (Rasi dristhi).

 

I am hesitant to share my birth data on the list, but just wanted to buttress the point that this dasa is quite effective to my limited cognisance and knowledge of Jyotisha.

 

 

Regards

|| Om Gurave Namah ||Dear Jyotishas and Narasimhaji,Can it be possible that Swami Shivananda had a spiritual progress made backin Libra dasa itself('04 to '11), when progressed 8th house was over AkMoon?.I was thinking that maybe one could still linger around for some time afterget certain spiritual direction and then get the Guru/Sanyasa at a latertime?From his autobiography,> "The Magazine(Ambrosia) quickly gained popularity soon after its inception> in 1909. Distinguished contributors started contributing for it. Once my> mother wanted to celebrate some festival and was in need of about one> hundred and fifty rupees to meet the expenses. I was ready with this sum.>> The "Ambrosia" journal was successfully run for four years until I sailed> for Malaya. It was of demi-quarto size, thirty-two pages each issue, and was> quite

beautifully got up. The material that its contents presented to the> reader every month was attractive and highly useful to all medical> practitioners. A significant spiritual touch could be felt in the pages of> the "Ambrosia." Unlike other medical journals, the entire outlook was based> on the teachings of the sages of yore. *Spirituality was ingrained in me> even in my youth*.">Moon stands for "Soma" the magazine is called "Ambrosia". This happensduring the 8th house transit (NSDasa) over Moon. Of course during the sametime Narayana dasa was also of Libra. So this can be explained usingNarayana dasa alsoBasically, My idea was just that why to look for some other 8th house dasa?,Maybe I can try things out using this NSDasa itself to see if it works.Another point I had in mind was that , Spiritual inclination can start muchearlier than when we meet Guru is was my opinion.

In my own example duringCancer dasa (Progressed 8th house in Capricorn) was terrible financially andmentally, But it made me think about higher powers, destiny and divinity.But I started some normal sadhana like regular worship etc only much later.The driving force is still my experiences in Cancer dasa. Hopefully I havegiven my humble opinion on this.With Warm Regards and namaskaarams,Sanjay Po<-<Niryana Shoola Dasa (death):Maha Dasas:Le: 1887-09-08 (4:16:00 am) - 1895-09-08 (5:21:28 am)Vi: 1895-09-08 (5:21:28 am) - 1904-09-08 (12:49:48 pm)*Li: 1904-09-08 (12:49:48 pm) - 1911-09-09 (7:47:52 am)** Sc: 1911-09-09 (7:47:52 am) - 1919-09-09 (8:57:50 am)* Sg: 1919-09-09 (8:57:50 am) - 1928-09-08 (4:25:31 pm)Cp: 1928-09-08 (4:25:31 pm) - 1935-09-09 (11:26:07 am)Aq: 1935-09-09 (11:26:07 am) - 1943-09-09 (12:30:52 pm)Pi: 1943-09-09 (12:30:52 pm) - 1952-09-08 (8:05:35

Dear RafalThats a nice beginning and well discussed, now go on and finish the entirewriting about your Niryana shula dasha. Analyse Nija dosha and bring outvery clearly how Krishna helped you to overcome so much dosha in theVrschika dasha (see my another mail).Then go to Tula see the deb Sun, exalted Sat and all those jokers afflictingmantresa and see the obstacles. Question is how to overcome these...and alsoquestion is *is any ija dosha being cleansed during this dasa?* Examine thisvery carefully. Then take this to another level by checking the mula dasha and theexperiences of curses by joining the twoBest wishesSanjay Rathsohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf OfRafal

WhilstLibra is yuti Brahma (6L from Karakalagna) and Guru AK is weak to provideatmajnana due to weakness of soul (brahma).That is one way out of this predicament. .Regards,Rafal Gendarz ------------ --------- --------http://rohinaa. com <http://www.rohinaa. com> rafal (AT) rohinaa (DOT) comSoul Sadhak pisze: Dear Narasimha,Though 8th hs is indicative of longevity/death, it is also a house of transformation, as you know. Transformation is death of what we were to what we beocme - like a caterpillar turns into a butterfly. If the NSD (Nirayana Shoola Dasa) is seen with this respect, then it may be that the person may undergo tremendous suffering in the period related to AK or Lg - and as Lakshmi said, the line has to be drawn between ordinary and advanced souls - different people may be experiencing the effect of transformation at different levels based on thier own level of spiritual awareness. Spiritually

advanced souls are likely to take this as a call for harnessing these energies and transmute them into the next level of internal changes, while ordinary beings may just wonder about the turmoil they are going through.Well, anyways, only looking at more and more charts can tell whether NSD is applicable so.Best Regards,SSsohamsa@ .com <sohamsa% 40. com> ,"Narasimha P.V.R.

*om namo bhagavate narasimhaya*Dear Sanjayji, NamaskarHere in fifth/tula we have big predicament. .Shukra and Guru are cursed, Shukra is combusted..its combustion leads to ending the pravrajayoga in years of 23/24 - which was the fact. Guru is weak and its 6L from its position being also brahma and dont have any drsti of a5 or its lord.Now its Shani-Shukra Moola dasa. Both connected to curse and its spiritual weakness. Shukra is 7L with badhakesh from Shastyaamsa giving some weakness coming from relationships. Being in 2 from AL with Guru gives definitely kama-nija-dosha.To overcome this we must strengthen the Surya to decrease Shani and Shukra effect. Surya being PD and DD can indicate Matangi or Sri Rama.Dhanus antardasa was however weak spiritually and its also have the same Ma/Ke, but doesnt have the influence of A5 - does gives the difference or

some position between MD and AD? In other case why Sc Mahadasa was good and Sg AD doesnt provide the similar fruits.CP was much better when I was inspired by Jaimini course to dwell into sadhana more. It has lord of A5, eight bhava and 4 from Karaka Lagna housing the 4L from Karakaamsa.Is it close to what you have suggesting?Regards,Rafal Gendarz------------ --------- --------http://rohinaa. comrafal (AT) rohinaa (DOT) comSanjay Rath pisze:>> Dear Rafal>> Thats a nice beginning and well discussed, now go on and finish the > entire writing about your Niryana shula dasha.

Re: 6th house related to spiritual matters to Narasimha and Rafal

Dear members,In my experience whenever I passed through Rahu Sub period, (Rahu in 6th(Scorpio) ), there had been an irresistable urge to pursue spiritual interests. May be because Scorpio is a Moksha trine.I think if the 6th house falls in Moksha trine, 6th lord or planets posited in it can trigger spiritual interests. Dont know if I am right.

Hi,I tend to agree that NSD need not be seen for spirituality at all.In Scorpio dasa having AK and BK, except starting to learn astrology, i didnothing special. Also, at that time, i had feelings that astrology is allscience and has nothing to do with spirituality or God. The dasa was infactbad, because i was atheist during the entire 8 years period.Whreas Libra having Pik Rahu, and not having any connection to lagna or AK,and having only a graha drishti of Guru was supposedly more spiritual.Using convoluted logic, i may say Scorpio was more spiritual because ofquestioning God, and questioning everything, but strictly speaking what wasspiritual about it? I am not sure, if i am missing something here.Cp: 1976-12-15 (8:27:06) - 1983-12-16 (3:24:47)Sg: 1983-12-16 (3:24:47) - 1992-12-15 (10:52:16)Sc: 1992-12-15 (10:52:16) - 2000-12-15 (12:10:26)Li: 2000-12-15

|| Om Gurave Namah ||Dear Partha and Jyotishas,I am also just experimenting with something Guruji suggested. So let me givemy opinion here,Actually your NSD dasa starts from Cp which is second house so the 8th housewill the 7th from dasa sign.In Sc Dasa your progressed 8th is in Taurus is the 6th house having no muchconnection to Sun except for Graha Drishti.In Libra Dasa your progressed 8th is in Aries. Now, Aries lord mars isconjoined Ak Sun and Aries also aspects your Sun+Mars conjunction in Sc. Sothe spiritual progress can be said to be there.BTW, Have your all noticed that the irrespective of whether the dasa startsfrom 2nd or 8th the duration of each dasa remains the same. And also theprogressed 8th house is at the same place. It's as though "Start dasa from2nd or 8th" looks redundant. But if you want to apply the Saturn/Ketuexception then this

would come handy I suppose.Warm RegardsSanjay P.2008/11/13 Partha Sarathy <partvinu (AT) gmail (DOT) com>> Hi,>> I tend to agree that NSD need not be seen for spirituality at all.>> In Scorpio dasa having AK and BK, except starting to learn astrology, i did> nothing special.

HARE RAMA KRISHNADear Partha,How are you after long time ? May I jump ?Please kindly check what Narayana want first. Then, for fine tune, you maygo to other dasas. If Narayana Dasa not allowed, nothing can be find. AlsoVimsottari as well.This is, infact from my little works, after study last few mails andperhaps many flat points there.ThanksKarusohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf OfPartha SarathyThursday, 13 November 2008 8:13 PMsohamsa@ .comRe: niryana shoola dasa -strange logicHi,I tend to agree that NSD need not be seen for

spirituality at all.In Scorpio dasa having AK and BK, except starting to learn astrology, i didnothing special. Also, at that time, i had feelings that astrology is allscience and has nothing to do with spirituality or God. The dasa was infactbad, because i was atheist during the entire 8 years period.Whreas Libra having Pik Rahu, and not having any connection to lagna or AK,and having only a graha drishti of Guru was supposedly more spiritual.Using convoluted logic, i may say Scorpio was more spiritual because ofquestioning God, and questioning everything, but strictly speaking what wasspiritual about it?

Hi KaruI am doing fine. Thanks for your points.Well i really dont know what Narayana wants.I ran Aries Narayana dasa from 89 to 1996. It has jupiter +ketu combo,aspected by Sun and Mars. However, i was having more "materialistic" successat that time. I used to pray, but very less. Despite having jupiter andketu, nothing dramatically spiritual happened.Pisces dasa was one long lull, spiritual events happened only inPisces-Gemini, and Pisces cancer,(2003, 2004). after that i have virtuallyleft astrology.Infact i had high expectations of the current Scorpio dasa which startedlast year, housing AK sun. Still nothing happened, except more troubles fromhigher ups, and more running after security stuff. Infact this is the firstthread i am participating in the last three years.Even i am not doing readings since the last three years. So much forNarayana wanting something for

me.I am shomehow beliving now that Vimshottari is far better than othersystems.regardsparthaOn Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 3:59 PM, Karu Heenkenda <heen (AT) netspace (DOT) net.au>wrote:> HARE RAMA KRISHNA>> Dear Partha,>> How are you after long time ?

Hare Rama KrishnaDear Partha,OK. I will tell you how “I” think.See who “drive” your mind. (Kendra). It is only Mercury in Lagna. No supportfrom Guru. Since no AK or Ishta or any other higher level Karaka involved,Mercury is free enough to do what ever he wants.Now see AK. Is there any Graha who can link AK (or such higher karaka) withMoon+Mercury ? Only Guru can do it. So when ever, Guru activate, it link AKwith your Moon and Mercury (mind and intellect).Then Go to Narayana Dasa. Aries, where Guru is in. Guru is in 6th from Sun.He cannot work freely according to Pachakadi Sambandata. Then go to Pisces Dasa. Dasa is trine to Scorpio. Divide it in to 3 parts.One part belongs to Guru. In that part, Guru shall link Moon and Mercurywith AK and BK, as he aspects them and Mercury in lagna. Again, due to Pachakadi Sambandata results may not

manifest as expected.ThanksKarusohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf OfPartha SarathyThursday, 13 November 2008 9:38 PMsohamsa@ .comRe: niryana shoola dasa -strange logicHi KaruI am doing fine. Thanks for your points.Well i really dont know what Narayana wants.I ran Aries Narayana dasa from 89 to 1996. It has jupiter +ketu combo,aspected by Sun and Mars. However, i was having more "materialistic" successat that time. I used to pray, but very less. Despite having jupiter andketu, nothing dramatically spiritual happened.Pisces dasa was one long lull, spiritual events

happened only inPisces-Gemini, and Pisces cancer,(2003, 2004). after that i have virtuallyleft astrology.Infact i had high expectations of the current Scorpio dasa which startedlast year, housing AK sun. Still nothing happened, except more troubles fromhigher ups, and more running after security stuff. Infact this is the firstthread i am participating in the last three years.Even i am not doing readings since the last three years. So much forNarayana wanting something for me.I am shomehow beliving now that Vimshottari is far better than othersystems.regardsparthaOn Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 3:59 PM, Karu Heenkenda <heen (AT) netspace (DOT) net.au>wrote:HARE RAMA KRISHNADear Partha,How are you after long time ?

Dear SteveTrue, but we do not have the chart of Sri Patanjali, the incarnation ofAdi-shesha. We need to understand the significators of these housesvis-a-vis the houses and their mutual relations.RegardsSanjaysohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf OfStephen K. Sufian10 November 2008 02:20sohamsa@ .comRE: Re: Download Article on Parasara's DrigdasaThanks, Sanjay, that clears up why you were questioning Narasimha. Iunderstand the point of view here.To see whether this point of view from standard works (which I assume meanscognitions of Rishis) prevails or

whether Narasimha's original view (and mysupport of it) does it would be nice to look at some charts. Is theresomeone who is generally credited with having the siddhis, and whoseblessing of them was given at a roughly known age/year? If so, we could lookat his chart from the standpoint of several Dasha systems to see whether 6thhouse was involved, or not, at the time of siddhi acquistition.And as a comparison, perhaps someone who has a similar chart but who did notget the siddhis fulfilled during a Dasha when 6th Bhava was involved?Patanjali, would be nice, since he's the author of the Yoga Sutras. Somewhatcomplicated by the fact that the Shankaracharya of Kanchi relates thetraditional story that Patanjali was an incarnation of AdiSesha but since wecommonly analyze Ram's chart and Krishna's in standard terms, it should bedoable.Jai Shri Ganesh,Steve--- On Sun, 11/9/08, Sanjay

K. Sufian06 November 2008 19:59sohamsa@ .comRE: Re: Download Article on Parasara's DrigdasaDon't understand: Narasimha's angle makes perfect sense -11th from the 8th,and then also as sixth house obstacles to sadhana. Seems to work.Could add another angle - 6th house is not merely obstacles, enemies, but itis the proxy for Kanya-Virginity- Purity and the ability to maintain purityin the midst of distractions. Also makes sense for siddhis. Successful traversing 6th house leads to the ability to perform successful7th house activities, to woo the princess (Big Self),get the highercontract, and live life on a higher plane, one in which what seemed to besiddhis are merely the natural abilities of the Cosmic Self.--- On Thu, 11/6/08, Sanjay Rath <sjrath (AT) hotmail (DOT) com> wrote:Sanjay Rath <sjrath (AT) hotmail (DOT) com>RE:

can show siddhis. However, rememberthat 6th house is also the house of obstacles.

Dear Ramdas ji7H from AK is the house of rebirth of the soul. If Rahu is AK then the 7thhouse from it has Ketu which is moksha karaka.

Re: Panchamuki Hanuman Homam

Dear Arpad jiNamaste.1. Sankranti is considered very auspicious for Hanuman worship andHanuman Jayanti is in Mesha sankranti, the king of all the 12 sankranti's.2. Tuesdays and Saturndays are considered auspicious for Hanuman puja,especially Saturday as Vayu Putra Hanuman and Tuesday as Ramaduta. However,Pancha-mukha (pancha tattva) Hanuman puja is best done on Mondays as this isRudra (pancha mukha rupa)3. Caturthi tithi coinciding with Tuesday is the best Tithi/Varacombination for any Angaraka avatara form (Matsya Purana, Shiva Upadesha forthe birth of Mangala graha from the body of Virabhadra).4. Ensure that the fifth house does not have any malefic planets and5. NO PLANETS are present in the 8th houseOther muhurta rules as per standard texts are not so important as the above.Best RegardsSanjay RathP.S. Remember to donate large quantity of

Pujarirelated to me that the eyebrows started growing on the face of Simha. Realeyebrows. Devotees started to show up and scavenged the stone Murti,plucking the eyebrows- but it kept growing back.Anyway, my friend asked me to select some good muhurtas and here I woulddefer to more experienced members, who could advise me on PanchamukiHanuman.Pratyangira Homam:Those members who live in Singapore, please be advised that we are doing anelaborate Pratyangira Homam on next Amavasya at the same MuneeswaranTemple.There will not be many people, because this is more or less a privatefunction. The only other Muneeswaran Temple in Singapore is ,by theway,doing regularly public Pratyangira Homam every Amavasya. (NearQeenstown-Commonwea lth).In any case, if you would like to come to the Pratyangira Homam at the oldrailway station, you are welcome.Starts at 5.30pmWith deep respect to

Dear SundeepThats a book in itself! Maybe next book. Niryana Shula is just about Nija dosha...what others are talking here is abit baffling even for me, so let's just leave it there. Yes just Nija dosha= Niryana Shula. The name speaks for itself.RegardsSanjay Rathsohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf Ofvedicastrostudent12 November 2008 11:56sohamsa@ .com Niryana Shoola Dasa (Re: Pronunciation of mantras)Dear Narasimhaji and Sanjayji,In light of what seems to be recently happening, it would be great if both of you could clarify one thing. In general, whenever

you attribute a dasa system or other astrological quantity as showing a transformation/ spiritual experience, could you *please* indicate the *level of consciousness* at which that dasa-system/ astrological quantity focusses, so we can distinguish the different types of transformation/ spiritual experience shown by each?For example, I have heard the following, or perhaps simply wrongly understood it:1) Moola Dasha/antar of Jupiter causes some kind of deep insight/spiritual experience?2) AK replacement causes transformation at a very deep level(Narasimhaji of course now believes that there is no such thing)3) Drigdasa has always been said to show spiritual growth, so presumably it will show spiritual experiences/ transformations as well (and of course as we see Narasimhaji has now explained Rafalji's experiences presumably accurately)4) Sanjayji has now shown us Niryaana dasa as

well5) Of course, the Vimshottari of AK has frequently been indicated as having the potential to awaken one towards God.6) Even Narayana dasa of D-20 is perhaps significantI'm not trying to contradict anyone here, I'm simply trying to point out that with so many dasha systems/astrologica l quantities being presented as the ones showing spiritual experience/transfor mation, they may all be correct but showing experiences at very different levels of consciousness perhaps. Or maybe some may be changes in environment vs changes in some level of consciousness. So perhaps it might be good if the "where the change occurs" part were qualified? And to make it really clear, show us the chart of one great person, and show us how each of the above dasa systems/astrologica l quantities showed different things within the same person's life. That would really sharpen the

issues..Regards,Sundeepsohamsa@ .com <sohamsa% 40. com> ,"Narasimha P.V.R.

But all these are different.Moola dasa is more for "root" or moola karma.AK replacement is not a dashaInfact i remember that even Brahma dasa shows spirituality, but i didnotwrite article on it, because i didnot understand the dasa then.(Sanjayji hadasked me to write on Brahma dasa)VImhsottari of AK is more

Re: Rafal's chart (Re: Pronunciation of mantras)

Dear SS/Rafal and all others,Please also look at planets in these houses and if none are there, then thelord of the house and the arudha associated with it.In the chart of Rafal, 1. Vrschika is the 6H (bad) but its lords are Mars and Ketu (moksakaraka); Mars ia lord of Karakamsa and joins the Karakamsa (see D9) whileKetu is in 5H from karakamsa) ...yet that is not sufficient; Moon (Krishna)aspects Vrschika as it is lord of MANTRAPADA A5 in Cancer; Mantrapada alsoaspects Vrschika; Therefore during Vrschika dasa he did lots of Mantras,most of mantra were Krishna mantra2. Now ...do I also have do this *exercise* for Tula dasa or do youpeople have the patience to look at it rationally?3. Remember Saturn is the worst as significator of 6H...this is the*foundation of Hinduism*... anyone saying otherwise is actually startinganother religion...now why did I say that?

Please thinkIts so easy to see if you are prepared to just look a little. Sorry for anywords that may seem harsh, that is not the way it is meant to be, but I haveto be straight and clearIf you can do Tula dasa I shall be happy, else after a few days I will dothis.RegardsSanjaysohamsa@ .com [sohamsa@ .com] On Behalf OfSoul Sadhak12 November 2008 16:12sohamsa@ .com Rafal's chart (Re: Pronunciation of mantras)Dear Narasimha/Rafal,Can a similar logic be made while using Nirayana Shoola Dasa - viz. e.g. in Rafal's case, the period of Vrisch falls in 6th hs, taking 6th from

here as progressed lagna (will get Vrisch in 8th); he gets Ma (lagna lord) and Ke (lord of 8th) in 9th house - higher learning.May be he found some guru then (aspect by A9) and also made some writings (A3 in 9th house).Best Regards,SSsohamsa@ .com <sohamsa% 40. com> ,"Narasimha P.V.R.

When drigdasa is of Cn, it means the progressed 9th house is in Cn. The progressed lagna is in Sc (5th from Cn). Taking Sc as lagna, 4 planets are in 12th including the 12th lord!

The original rule mentioned by Sanjay ji was that AK or lagna should

be aspected by dasa sign. Now, you are adding A8, A5, A9 and AL.

 

Let us take the chart of Swami Sivananda as an example. Ar, Le, Li and

Cp are aspected by AK. Ta, Cn, Sc and Aq are aspected by lagna. What

Sanjay ji mentioned has already covered 8 out of 12 signs. You are

adding 2 more (Sg and Pi). So 10 out of 12 dasas are covered!

 

Best regards,

Narasimha

case of Swami Sivananda, his Sg dasa should have been one of
