Chart 8: Born 7-1-1946 at 7.00 a.m. (IST), 22N35; 88E23. Planetary positions: Lagna – Capricorn; the Moon in Aquarius; Rahu and Saturn ® in Gemini; Mars ® in Cancer; Jupiter in Libra; and the Sun, Venus, Mercury and Ketu in Sagittarius.

The subject was given life term imprisonment against the charge of murder. Saturn, lord of Lagna, is in the 6th joined with incendiary Rahu aspected by the 6th lord Mercury, the 8th lord Sun and the 12th lord Jupiter indicating a horrible life. Further the 4th lord Mars is debilitated in a maraka house aspected by incendiary Rahu; in turn Jupiter is afflicted by the combined force of malefic Mars and Rahu whereas Yogakaraka Venus is combust and located in the 12th with 9th lord Mercury vitiated by Rahu-Ketu axis indicating a ferocious, violent mind without any sense of judgement. The karaka planet of mind, the Moon is also afflicted through malefic Mars and incendiary Rahu further intensifying his adamant ill-temper and moods.

Chart 7: Born 20-1-1930 at 5.31 a.m. (IST), 25N33; 84E40. Planetary positions: Lagna – Sagittarius with Mars and Saturn; the Sun, Mercury ® and Venus in Capricorn; Rahu in Aries; Jupiter ® in Taurus; the Moon in Virgo; and Ketu in Libra.

The subject was booked by the police under charges of homicide and looting in March 1967 during the main period of Jupiter in the sub-period of Ketu and convicted with a long term of imprisonment. Lagna is joined by the 12th lord Mars and maraka lord Saturn aspected by Rahu whereas Jupiter, Lord of Lagna, is relegated to the 6th aspected by Rahu again conferring a cruel, ferocious and violent nature. Further, Mercury and Venus are combust in the 2nd indicating shrewd intelligence and peevishness. It also indicates carnality, lust, conceit and recklessness. Again the other mental planet the Moon is afflicted by Saturn indicating a perverted outlook, a mean and malicious personality. The Mars-Saturn-Rahu syndrome has reference to the 1st and the 5th houses without any redeeming feature fundamentally endowing him with an intemperate and homicidal tendencies.

SWapnil,

you are plumb on target.

Dear sameer ji

 

As per chart made by me using Jhora software and as you already mentioned rules which i follow to check KSY or KAY

 

Since your ketu is with moon (2nd kumbha) and rahu is with saturn (8th simha) with this condition, I conclude that you dont have KAY

 

Regards

Chart 6: Born 30/31-1-1951 at 3.00 a.m. (IST), 23N24; 88E24. Planetary positions: Lagna – Scorpio, Mercury in Sagittarius; the Sun in Capricorn; Jupiter, Mars, Venus and Rahu in Aquarius; Ketu in Leo; Saturn ® in Virgo; and the Moon in Libra.

The 4th house is seriously afflicted by Rahu-Ketu axis and the 4th lord Saturn is aspected by malefic Mars who is the ruler of the 1st and the 6th. Saturn aspects Lagna and the 5th without any neutralizing influence indicating a violent, furious and stubborn nature and a perverted outlook. Since the ruler of the 5th house is located in the 12th from the 5th afflicted by Rahu, Mars and maraka lord Venus it indicates the contrary of Poorva-Karma and total eclipse of discretion. The other mental planet the Moon and the lord of the 9th (bhagyasthana) is relegated to the 12th (vyayasthana) indicating ill-fame ill-luck due to over-indulgence, perverted and obnoxious habits. The subject was involved in a murder case and booked by the police in June 1972 during Saturn main period in the sub-period of Ketu (Kujavad Ketu). Mars, lord of the 1st and the 6th, aspects the 4th lord Saturn from the 4th house indicating litigation, confinement, enmity, anxiety and dishonour. The subject was acquitted in the trial court on June 1973 in the sub-period of Venus in the main period of Saturn. Venus, lord of the 7th (kendra), posited in the 4th (with kona lord Jupiter and Mars) is capable of conferring a feeble Raja Yoga and as a natural benefic and also lord of Chandra Lagna assures pleasure and luxury not entirely through fair means. The subject indulges in gambling and more often in drinking.

Chart 5: 5/6-5-1965 at 3.20 a.m. (IST) 22N36; 88E23. Planetary positions: Lagna – Pisces with Mercury, the Sun and Venus in Aries; Rahu and Jupiter in Taurus; the Moon in Gemini; Mars in Leo; Ketu in Scorpio; and Saturn in Aquarius.

Mercury, the 4th and 7th lord and karaka for learning and intelligence, is debilitated in Lagna aspected by malefic Mars and hemmed in between malefic Saturn and the Sun indicating a violent and curious nature, a dull intelligence, a peevish and perverted outlook overwhelmed by evil habits. Both the Sun and the Moon are afflicted by Saturn and Rahu respectively indicating an unstable character and evil habits. The lord of Lagna, Jupiter is located in the 3rd, afflicted by Rahu and the 3rd lord Venus is combust in the 2nd whereas the Sun and Mars are involved in exchange of houses with reference to the 2nd and the 6th indicating deep passion, sensualism, ignorance, litigation, ill-fame giving rise to hostile relations with parents and even with kith and kin. On February 1980 during Jupiter main period in the sub-period of Rahu the subject committed a sexual crime (when he was only 14 years old) and left home with some valuable ornaments. The subject comes of a middle class Brahmin family.

Dear vikas,

Hanuman puja & upasana will act as Raam baan, do it ,light diya beneath a peepal on saturdays, offer rice cooked in milk to sparrows on fridays, keep a cream coloured scented handerchief with you always. Try changing the obstinate nature you have.

With the grace of Hanuman ji ,things will improve soon.

Chart 3: Born 4-5-1965 at 5.52 a.m. (IST). 22N38; 88E23. Planetary positions: Lagna – Taurus with the Moon, Jupiter and Rahu; Mars in Leo; Ketu in Scorpio; Saturn in Aquarius; Mercury in Pisces; and Venus and Sun in Aries.

The subject (female) belongs to a rich and renowned family in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on">West Bengal</st1:place>. Her grand-father was a famous writer and father, a big physician. The subject was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Every article is at her command. But she has a peculiar mental set-up. The indication of lesbianism was noticed in her seventh year from the commencement of Rahu’s main period when she was caught red-handed. The subject is handsome and can conceal her real feelings and never gives out her mind. After puberty, she began an affair with a boy in the same neighbourhood with no social status. But this was all without the knowledge of her parents and relatives. She used to steal money from her parent’s safe in an artful manner. Everything was disclosed when she left home with the hooligan and got married on 17-4-1981 during Rahu main period and the sub-period of Mercury.

Yogakaraka Saturn is seriously afflicted by powerful maraka Mars with reference to the 4th and the 10th houses, the 5th lord Mercury in his debilitation is aspected by Mars; there is the exchange of houses between the Sun and Mars in the 4th and 12th houses; the lord of Lagna, Venus, is combust in the 12th and finally the Moon and Jupiter are vitiated by Rahu in Lagna, all very significant in judging the indications of such a vitiated soul and mind of easy virtue in thought and deed.

Chart 4: Born 6/7-10-1922 at 1.32 a.m. (LMT), 22N42; 88E23. Planetary positions: Lagna – Cancer, the Sun, Saturn and Rahu in Virgo; Jupiter and Mercury® in Libra; Venus in Scorpio; Mars in Sagittarius; and the Moon and Ketu in Pisces.

The subject was convicted on charges of dacoity and murder involved in the Dum Dum-Basirhat case in <st1:place w:st="on">West Bengal</st1:place> and underwent a long term of imprisonment but is now rehabilitated in social life.

The Moon, lord of Lagna, is vitiated by Rahu-Ketu axis and afflicted by malefic Saturn and Mars: an unstable and infirm character and a victim of allurement. Mark the Dwidwadasa (2/12) involving the 2nd, the 3rd, the 4th and the 5th lords the Sun, Mercury, Venus and Mars respectively, very significant in this horoscope. The Sun and the Moon are both afflicted. Further the 1st, the 4th, the 5th and the 9th houses and their lords either from Lagna or Chandra Lagna (the natal Moon) are all afflicted by Saturn, Rahu and Mars indicating wrong ideals and uncanny thinking.

Chart 2: Born 25-10-1933 at 6.40 a.m. (IST). 22N35; 88E23; Planetary positions: Lagna – Libra with the Sun; Mars, Venus and Mercury in Scorpio; the Moon in Sagittarius; Saurn in Capricorn; Rahu in Aquarius; Ketu in Leo; and Jupitr in Virgo.

The debilitated Sun in Lagna though he has obtained cancellation of debilitation is powerfully aspected by malefic Saturn and incendiary Rahu whereas the lord of Lagna Venus is in the 2nd in close proximity maraka Mars. Rahu is in the 5th house which gives a shrewd mentality to fulfill his own mission of grabbing others’ fortune. Jupiter the planet of wisdom, is located in the 12th and hemmed in between malefic Ketu and the evil Sun whereas the karaka of intelligence Mercury is joined with maraka Mars and as lord of the 9th is in the 6th from the 9th further intensifying the selfish, malicious mean nature of the subject.

Chart 1: Born 25-1920 at 8.26 a.m. (LMT), 22N38; 88E23. Planetary positions: Lagna – Cancer with Mercury and Jupiter; Leo – Saturn; Mars, the Moon and Rahu in Libra; Ketu in Aries; and the Sun and Venus in Gemini.

Lord of Lagna, the Moon is joined by the 5th and 10th lord. Yogakaraka Mars is vitiated by Rahu-Ketu axis strongly aspected by maraka lord malefic Saturn. The 4th lord Venus is combust in the 12th; mean, selfish, greedy and a hypocrite of an individual. Further, Mercury, lord of the 3rd and the 12th, a functional malefic for this horoscope, located in Lagna with Jupiter who is placed in Aslesha and hemmed in-between evil planets the Sun and Saturn indicates an uncanny intelligence not guided by viveka (discretion).

ASTROLOGY is a divine torch that can illumine one’s life. Astrology is a “definitive discipline of vitalistic cosmogony” envisaged by the Vedas and “is the calculus of human kinship with stars”. Astrology is a thorough-going “discipline that addresses itself to every concern of man” from birth to death. It juxtaposes comic rhythms with the biological rhythms in individual life and draws spectacular guidelines. Predictions concerning nature, character, emotion, impulse, habit, hypocrisy, intepredity, violent motives and such other intricacies of human behaviour are very difficult to identify because of the complexity of the social, economical and political conditions of the world today. The classical text we have are helpful in giving broad outlines only; but in the context of today’s need we have to fill in and read just certain implications through our intuition, experience and research. A comprehensible table to determine the positive karakatwas of different bhavas and the concerned planets is given hereunder in order to assess the complexities of human nature.

The purpose of the article is to examine the life of criminals and individuals who indulge in unethical patterns of life. Ill-disposed 1st, 4th and 5th houses and their lords with afflicted Mercury and Jupiter having a Mars-Saturn-Rahu syndrome notably in the 1st, the 4th or the 5th house are the factors in this study. The Moon denotes antahkarana (perception, inner mind), Mercury stands for intelligence, Judgement, an open and witty nature, the Sun denotes soul and character and Jupiter denotes Samyak Gyana or divine knowledge. These planets, when afflicted by Mars-Saturn-Rahu, confer hostile and contrary indications of the above traits. Under such an affliction the Moon may give a perverted outlook and evil habits. Mercury afflicted under similar conditions indicate selfish and mean motive, a peevish nature. Similarly, Jupiter afflicted by Mars-Saturn-Rahu indicates shrewd intelligence, ignorance, over-indulgence and conceit. Afflicted Saturn denotes mean and notorious character and inclination towards illegal acts in a secret way. Afflicted Mars is murderous, adamant, ill-tempered, furious and stubborn. Afflicted Rahu is jealous, vindictive, ferocious, violent, a smuggler, lustful and reckless in mood. The nature of afflicted Ketu is to find fault with others, causing harm without reason and always wanting to go ahead with secret plans of an obnoxious kind. When the 1st, the 4th, the 5th, the 9th and the 10th houses are involved under such malefic afflictions and the karaka planets are evilly disposed without any neutralizing effect, the individual may turn into a criminal, cheat, liar, ill-tempered, sensual, a thief, hypocrite and an out-and-out imposter and murderer. Afflictions on the 7th, the 8th or the 12th house may cause an immoral sexual life and it is further intensified when Venus is involved under affliction or is related to or influenced by the weak Moon-Mars-Mercury configuration. In the light of the above observations we may examine the horoscopes of some individuals who are leading unethical and intemperate lives. The attempt to study such cases can be neither complete nor exhaustive. Only some salient points are touched here and indications given for such unfortunate ways of life.

Dear Readers,

I would like to comment on :

"In Hinduism, the right side symbolizes auspiciousness"

mentioned just above & for this reason we do Pradakshina keeping the God's idol in the right side.

As we see the earth & our planetary system from the top, we find the whole system is moving in clock-wise manner. Perhaps from this natural phenomenon, the whole concept of Vedic Vastu is clock-wise ( Pradakshina). Any construction contrary to it results in inauspiciousness, adverse & finally leads to short life & destruction.

The concept behind this is that we must harmonize & synchronize with celestial system. This is also the basic principal of "Pranaya", where we direct all the life forces (Prana) in one direction.

Spirituality is synchronizing life forces in the direction of nature, and thus controlling the same.

“Vastusutra Upanishad” explains the best possible spiritual way, as how to draw lines, especially marking in sculpturing; from where we draw the concept of making plan & subsequent construction work in Vastu. To extract from this great Upanishad – "the line should be drawn from left to right." ( So is the movement while doing Pradakshina).

In accordance with Muhurt & Swar Shaastras, Front Moon is benefic while the Sun on the back is beneficial; however, the both are beneficial on right side to the direction of travel. Thus while doing Pradakshina we keep the deity in the right side.

Further in accordance with Swar Shaastra, Ida (left Swar) is auspicious. It is used in performing auspicious / spiritual activities. While Pingala (right Swar) is used in worldly activities.

Therefore in my opinion Pradakshina around a temple (other than around Shiva Linga) should be performed in clock-wise direction with left Swar flowing.

Why do we do pradakshina ?

When we visit a temple. after offering prayers, we circumambulate the

santum sanctorum. This is called pradakshina

We cannot draw a circle without a centre point. The Lord is the centre, source and essence of our lives. Recognising Him as the focal point in out lives, we go about doing our daily chores. This is the significance of pradakshina

Also every point on the circumference of a circle is equidistant from

the centre. This means that wherever or whoever we may be, we are equally

close to the Lord. His grace flows towards us without partiality.

The pradakshina is always down only in clockwise manner because, as

we do pradakshina the Lord is always on our right. In Hinduism, the right

side symbolises auspiciousness. It is a telling fact that even in the

English language it is called the "right" side and not the wrong one! So as we

circumambulate the sanctum sanctorum we remind ourselves to lead an

auspicious life of righteousness, with the Lord to lead an auspicious

life of righteousness, with the Lord who is the indispensable source of

help and strength, as our guide - the "right hand" - the dharma aspect of our

lives.We thereby overcome our wrong tendencies and avoid repeating the sins

of the past.

Indian scriptures enjoin - matrudevo bhava, pitrudevo bhava,

acharyadevo bhava. Meaning : May you consider your parents and teachers as you

would the Lord. With this in mind we also do pradakshina around our parents and

divine personages. The story of Lord Ganesh circumambulating his parents is

a well known one.

After the completion of traditional worship (pooja), we customarily do

pradakshina around ourselves. In this way we recognise and remember

the supreme divinity within us, which alone is idolised in the form of

the Lord that we worship outside.

Why do we offer food to the Lord before eating it?

In western tradition food is partaken after a thanks giving prayer -

grace. Indians make an offering of it to the Lord and later partake of it as

prasad- a holy gift from the Lord. in temples and in many homes, the cooked

food is first offered to the Lord each day. The offered food is mixed with

the rest of the food and then served as prasad. In our daily ritualistic

worship (pooja) too we offer naivedyam (food to the Lord)

This is done because: The Lord is omnipotent and omniscient. Man is a

part, while the Lord is the totality. All that we do is by his strength and

knowledge alone. Hence what we receive in life as a result of our

actions is really his alone. We acknowledge this thru the act of offering food

to him.

This is exemplified by the Hindi words "Tera tujko arpan from the

aarti "Jai Jagdesh Hare" - I offer what is yours to you. Thereafter it is akin

to his gift to us, graced by his divine touch.

Knowing this, our entire attitude to food and the act of eating

changes. The food offered will naturally be pure and the best. We share what we

get with others before consuming it. We do not demand, complain or criticize

the quality of the food we get. We do not waste or reject it. We eat it

with cheerful acceptance (prasad buddhi). When we become established in

this attitude, this goes beyond the pre-view of food and pervades our

entire life. We are then able to cheerfully accept all we get in life as his

prasad.

Before we partake daily meals we first sprinkle water around the

plate as an act of purification. Five morsels of food are placed on the side of

the table acknowledging the debt owed by us to the:

* Divine forces (devta runa) for their benign grace and

protection.

* Our ancestors (pitru runa) for giving us their lineage and

the family culture.

* The sages (rishi runa) as our religion and culture have been

"realized" maintained and handed down to us by them.

* Our fellow beings (manushya runa) who constitute society

without

the support of which we could not live as we do and

* Other living beings (bhuta runa) for serving us selflessly.

There after the Lord, the life force, who is also within us as the

five life- giving physiological functions, is offered the food. The five life-

giving functions are praanaaya (respiratory), apaanaaya (extretory),vyaanaaya

(circulatory), udaanaaya (reversal) and samaanaaya (digestive). After

offering the food thus, it is eaten as prasad - blessed food.

Why do we apply holy ash?

The ash of any burnt object is not regarded as holy ash. Bhasma (the

holy ash) is the ash from the homa (sacrificial fire) where special wood

along with ghee and other herbs is offered by pouring ash as abhisheka and

is then distributed as Bhasma

Bhasma is generally applied on the forehead. Some apply it on certain

parts of the body, like the upper arms, chest etc. Some ascetics rub it all

over the body. Many consume a pinch of it each time they receive it.

The word Bhasma means "that by which our sins are destroyed and the

Lord is remembered". Bha implies bhartsanam ("to destroy") and sma implies

smaranam("to remember"). The application of Bhasma therefore signifies

destruction of the evil and remembrance of the divine. Bhasma is called vibhuti

(which means "glory") as it gives glory to one who applies and raksha (which

means a source of protection) as it protects the wearer from ill health and

evil,by purifying him or her.

Homa (offering of oblations into the fire with sacred mantras)

signifies the offering or surrender of the ego and egocentric desires into the

flame of knowledge or a noble and selfless cause. The consequent ash signifies

the purity of the mind which results from such actions. Also the fire of

knowledge burns the oblation and wood signifying ignorance and inertia

respectively. The ash we apply indicates that we should burn false

identification with body and become free of the limitations of birth

and death.

The application of ash also reminds us that body is perishable and

shall one day be reduced to ashes. We should therefore not get too attached to

it. Death can come at any moment and this awareness must increase our

drive to make the best use of time. This is not to be misconstructed as a

morose reminder of death but as a powerful pointer towards the fact that

time and tide wait for none.

Bhasma is specially associated with Lord Shiva who applies it all

over his body. lord Shiva devotees apply bhasma as a tripiundra. When applied

with a red spot in the centre, the mark symbolizes Shiva-Shakti (the unity of

energy and matter that creates the entire seen and un-seen universe)

Ash is what remains when all the wood is burnt away and it does not

decay. Similarly, the Lord is the imperishable Truth that remains when the

entire creation if innumerable names and forms is dissolved.

Bhasma has medicinal value and is used in many ayurvedic medicines. It

absorbs excess moisture from the body and prevents colds and

headaches. The Upanishads say that the famous Mrityunjaya mantra should be chanted

while applying ash on the forehead.

Why do we not touch papers, books and people with the feet?

In Indian homes, we are taught from a very young age, never to touch

papers, books and people with our feet. Of the feet accidentally touch papers,

books, musical instruments or any other educational equipment,

children are told to reverentially touch what was stamped with their hands and

then touch their eyes as a mark of apology.

To Indians, knowledge is sacred and divine. So it must be given

respect at all times. Nowadays we separate subjects as sacred and secular. But in

ancient <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:country-region w:st="on"><?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comNorth India</st1:place> as a respectful form of welcome, to honour

guests orwhen bidding farewell to a son or husband about to embark on an

journey. The tilak varies in colour and form.

.

This custom was not prevalent in the Vedic period. it gained

popularity in the Pauranic period. Some believe that it originated in <st1:place w:st=" /><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region> every subject - academic or spiritual was considered

divine and taught by the guru in the gurukul.

The custom of not stepping on educational tools is a frequent

reminder of the high position accorded to knowledge in the Indian culture. From

an early age this wisdom fosters in us a deep reverence for books and

education. This is also the reason why we worship books, vehicles and instruments

once a year on Saraswathi Pooja or Ayudha Pooja day, dedicated to the

Goddess of Learning.

Children are also strongly discouraged from touching people with

their feet. Even if this happens accidentally, we touch the person and bring the

fingers to our eyes as a mark of apology. Even when elders touch a younger

person inadvertently with their feet, they immediately apologize.

To touch another person with feet is considered an act of misdemeanor

because: man is regarded as the most beautiful, living, breathing

temple of the lord! Therefore touching another person with feet is akin to

disrespecting the divinity within him or her. This calls for an

immediate apology, which is offered with reverence and humility

Thus, many of our customs are designed to be simple but powerful

reminders or pointers of profound philosophical truths. This is one of the

factors that have kept Indian culture alive across centuries.

Why do we wear marks on the forehead?

Most religious Indians, especially married women wear a tilak or

pottu on the forehead. It is applied daily after the bath and on special

occasions, before or after ritualistic worship or visit to the temple. In many

communities, it is enjoined upon married women to sport a kum kum on

their foreheads at all times. The orthodox put it on with due rituals. The

tilak is applied on saints and images of the Lord as a form of worship and

in many parts of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comNorth India</st1:place> as a respectful form of welcome, to honour

guests orwhen bidding farewell to a son or husband about to embark on an

journey. The tilak varies in colour and form.

This custom was not prevalent in the Vedic period. it gained

popularity in the Pauranic period. Some believe that it originated in <st1:place w:st="on">South India</st1:place>.

The tilak or pottu invokes a feeling of sanctity in the wearer and

others. It is recognised as a religious mark. It form and colour vary

according to one's caste, religious sect or the form of the Lord worshiped.

In earlier times, the four castes (based on verna or color) -

Braahmana,Kshatriya,Vaishya and Sudra - applied marks differently. The

brahmin applied a white chandan (sandalwood paste) mark signifying

purity as his profession was of a priestly or academic nature. The Kshatriya

applied a red kum kum mark signifying valour as he belonged to the warrior

races. The Vaishya wore yellow kesar or termeric mark signifying properity as he

was a business man or trader devotted to creation of wealth. The sudra

applied a black bhasma, kasturi or charcoal mark signifying service as he

support the work of the other three divisions. Also Lord Vishnu worshipers apply a

chandan tilak of the shape of "U", Lord Shiva worshipers applied a

tripundra bhasma, Devi worshippers applied red dot of kum kum.

The chandan, kum kum or bhasma which is offered to the Lord is taken

back as prasad and applied on foreheads. The tilak covers the spot between

the eye brows, which the seat of memory and thinking. It is known as the aajna

chakra in the language of yoga. The tilak is applied with the prayer -

"May

i remember the Lord. May this pious feeling pervade all my

activities. May I

be righteous in my deeds". Even when we temporarily forget this

prayerful

attitude the mark on another reminds us of our resolve. The tilak is

thus a blessing of the Lord and protection against wrong tendencies and

forces.

The entire body emanates energy in the form of electro-magnetic

waves - the forehead and the subtle spot between the eye brows especially so.

That is why worry generates heat and causes a headache. The tilak or pottu

cools the forehead, protects us and prevents energy loss. Sometimes, the entire

forehead is covered with chandan or bhasma. Using plastic

reusable 'stick bindis' is not very beneficial, even though it serves the purpose of

decoration.

This unique to Indians and helps to easily identify us anywhere.

Why do we do namaste?

Hindus greet each other with "namaste". The two palms are

placed together in front of the chest and the head bows while saying the word

"namaste". This greeting is for all - people younger than us, of our

own age, those older than us, friends and even strangers.

Namaste could be just a casual or formal greeting, a cultural

convention or an act of worship. However there is much more to it than meets the

eye.

In Sanskrit namah + te = namaste. It means - I bow to you - my greetings,

salutations or prostration to you.

Namaha can also be literally interpreted as "na ma" (not mine). It

has a spiritual significance of negating or reducing one's ego in the

presence of another.

The real meeting between people is the meeting of their minds. When

we greet another, we do so with namaste, which means, "may our minds meet"

indicated by the folded palms placed before the chest. The bowing down of the

head is a gracious form of extending friendship in love and humility.

The spiritual meaning is even deeper. The life force, the divinity, the Self

or the Lord in me is the same in all. Recognizing this oneness with

the meeting of the palms, we salute with head bowed the Divinity in the

person we meet. That is why sometimes, we close our eyes as we namaste to a

revered person or the Lord as it to look within. The gesture is often

accompanied by words like "Ram Ram", "Jai Shri Krishna", "Jai Siya Ram", "Om Shanti"

etc. - indicating the recognition of this divinity.

When we know this significance, our greeting does not remain just a

superficial gesture or word but paves the way for a deeper communion

with another in an atmosphere of love and respect.

Why do we prostrate before parents & elders?

Hindus prostrate to their parents, elders, teachers and

noble souls by touching their feet. The elders in turn bless by placing his/her

hand on or over our heads. Prostration is done daily, when we meet elders and

particularly on important occasions like the beginning of a new task,

birthdays, festivals etc. In certain traditional circles, prostration

is accompanied by "abhivaadana" which serves to introduce oneself,

announce one's family and social stature.

Man stands on his feet. Touching the feet in prostration is a sign of

respect for the age, maturity, nobility and divinity that our elders

personify. It symbolizes our recognition of their selfless love for

us and the sacrifices that they have made for our welfare. It is a way of

humbly acknowledging the greatness of another. This tradition reflects the

strong family ties which has been of <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region>'s enduring strengths.

The good wishes (sankalpa) and the blessings (aashirvaada) of elders

are highly valued in <st1:country-region w:st="on"><st1:place w:st="on">India</st1:place></st1:country-region>. We prostrate to seek them. Good thoughts

create positive vibrations. Good wishes springing from a heart full of love,

divinity and nobility have a tremendous strength. When we prostrate

with humility and respect, we invoke good wishes and blessings of elders

which flow in the form of positive energy to envelop us. This is why the

posture assumed whether it is in the standing or prone position, enables the

entire body to receive the energy.

The different forms of showing respect are :

* Pratuthana - rising to welcome a person.

* Namaskaara - paying homage in the form of namaste.

* Upasangrahan - touching the feet of elders or teachers.

* Shaashtaanga - prostrating fully with the full body

touching the

ground in front of the elder.

* Pratyabivaadana - returning a greeting.

Rules are prescribed in our scripture as to who should prostrate to

whom.

Wealth, family name, age, moral strength and spiritual knowledge in

ascending order of importance qualified men to receive respect. This

is why

a king though a ruler of the land would prostrate before a spiritual

master.

Epics like Ramayana and Mahabharata have many stories highlighting

this

aspect.

Why do we have a prayer room?

Most Hindu homes have a prayer room or altar. A lamp is lit

and the Lord worshipped each day. Other spiritual practices like "japa"

(repetition of the Lord's name), meditation, "paaraayana" (reading of

the scriptures), prayers, devotional singing etc. is also done here.

Special worship is done on auspicious occasions like birthdays, anniversaries,

festivals and the like. Each member of the family - young or old -

communes with and worships the Divine here.

The Lord is the owner of the entire creation. He is therefore the

true owner of the house we live in too. The prayer room is the master room of the

house. This notion rids us of false pride and possessiveness.

The ideal attitude to take is to regard the Lord as the true owner of

our homes and ourselves as the caretakers of His home. But if this rather

difficult, we could at least think of Him as a very welcome guest.

Just as we would house an important guest in the best comfort, so, too we

felicitate the Lord's presence in our homes by having a prayer room or altar,

which is, at all times, kept clean and well decorated.

Also the Lord is all pervading. To remind us that He resides in our home

with us, we have prayer rooms. Without the grace of the Lord, no task

can be successfully or easily accomplished. We invoke His grace by communing

with Him in the prayer room each day and on special occasions.

Each room in a house is dedicated to a specific function like bedroom

for resting and sleeping, the drawing room to receive guests, the kitchen

for cooking etc. the furniture, décor and the atmosphere of each room are

made conductive to the purpose it serves. So too for the purpose of

meditation, worship and prayer, we should have a conductive atmosphere - hence

the need for a prayer room.

Sacred thoughts and sound vibrations pervade the place and influence

the minds of those who spend time there. Spiritual thoughts and vibrations

accumulated through regular meditation, worship and chanting done

there pervade the prayer room. Even when we are tired or agitated, by just

sitting in the prayer room for a while, we feel calm, rejuvenated and

spiritually uplifted.

Why do we light a lamp?

In almost every Indian home a lamp is lit daily before the altar

of theLord. In some houses it is lit at dawn, in some, twice a day at dawn

and dusk- and in a few it is maintained continuously (akhanda deepa). All

auspicious functions and moments like daily worship, rituals and

festivals and even many social occasions like inaugurations commence with the

lighting of the lamp, which is often maintained right through the occasion.

Light symbolizes knowledge, and darkness ignorance. The Lord is the

"Knowledge Principle" (Chaitanya) who is the source, the enlivener

and the illuminator of all knowledge. Hence light is worshiped as the Lord

Himself.

Knowledge removes ignorance just as light removes darkness. Also

knowledge is a lasting inner wealth by which all outer achievements can be

accomplished. Hence we light the lamp to bow down to knowledge as the

greatest of all forms of wealth. Knowledge backs all our actions

whether good or bad. We therefore keep a lamp lit during all auspicious

occasion as a witness to our thoughts and actions.

Why not light a bulb or tube light then? That too would remove darkness.

But thetraditional oil lamp has a further spiritual significance. The oil or

ghee in the lamp symbolizes our "vaasnas" or negative tendencies and the

wick,the ego. When lit by spiritual knowledge, the "vaasnas" get slowly

exhaustedand the ego too finally perishes. The flame of a lamp always burns

upwards.Similarly, we should acquire such knowledge as to take us towards

higher ideals.

A single lamp can light hundreds more just as a man of knowledge can

give it to many more. The brilliance of the light does not diminish despite

its repeated use to light many more lamps. So too knowledge does not

lessen when shared with or imparted to others. On the contrary it increases in

clarity and conviction on giving. It benefits both the receiver and the

giver.
