Guest guest Posted September 9, 1999 Report Share Posted September 9, 1999 Dear Sanjay, I was looking at chart of my close friend who is pisces lagna with hamsa yoga in 10 house with rahu, when this posting arrived. I thought about gving my observations about the neccessity of sun and moon strengt in case oft all raja and mahapurusha yoga, In this chart sun is neecha in 8.house along with a moon. My friend is a pharmacist and a good hearted person but by far not a mahapurusha. He has exaltet jupiter in navamsa and hamsa yoga in D-4 as well. However sun and moon are weak. Than I saw the same point in your posting(about the strenght of sun and moon from Saravali) This chart proves this point. I can submit it at your request(the chart). I've always thought that mahapurusha must be something special and thank you for giving your thoughts on it.

(1) Sanjay, you don't have to talk about "similarity with the main yoga" - she has the "main yoga" itself!! She has Hamsa yoga in rasi chart too. Whatever you said can be said regarding the rasi chart too! She has Jupiter in 7th in moolatrikona in rasi. Jupiter is not weak in navamsa, shashtyamsa etc. She has a clean Hamsa yoga in rasi chart. However, she is not a Hamsa yoga person, atleast in karma (action). The reason is Chandala yoga in karmamsa (D-10). (2) As I indicated to you earlier, I am not all comfortable with Sg lagna in her D-10. For various reasons, I believe that her D-10 lagna should be Cp. May Jupiter's light shine on us, Your grateful sishya, Narasimha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The yardsticks are very different. There was something else I talked about..the Tatwa. If a person has all the five Mahapurusha yoga, then the person is like Bhagawan Sri Ramachandra. Let us understand the REAL MEANING behind this Yoga. When Draupadi asked Shankara for a husband having all the five Mahapurusha Yoga Qualities, Shankara blessed her with FIVE HUSBANDS!! What does this tell us? Is it not clear that ONLY ONE of these will dominate as far as human births are concerned. Well, then, let us go to the next point about Ms. Jayalalitha...(Next POINT). > > For example, Smt. Jayalalitha> > has got Jupiter in Sagittarius in Dasamsa with debilitated Rahu. We can say> > that she has "Hamsa Yoga in Karma" which will manifest in the form of making> > temples and other good karma during its periods. Thus in Rahu dasa Jupiter> > antardasa, she supported the BJP, but as soon as Saturn was to come, she> > joined hands with the Congress.

You can use the term HAMSA YOGA to indicate the similarity with> > the main yoga, but be very careful while classifying any person as> > MAHAPURUSHA.> > (1) Sanjay, you don't have to talk about "similarity with the main yoga" - she> has the "main yoga" itself!!> > She has Hamsa yoga in rasi chart too.

For various reasons, I believe that her D-10 lagna should be Cp. RATH: Here we are..I was trying to define the Yardsticks for calling a person a Mahapurusha. As regards the chart of Ms Jayalalitha, we have to determine between the stronger of Venus and Jupiter in her chart to actually say which yoga has dominated and shall prevail. SHE HAS VENUS EXALTED IN THE TENTH IN PISCES AND JUPITER IN THE SEVENTH IN SAGITTARIUS. It is obvious that the effects of Malavya mahapurusha Yoga have dominated and VENUS shall determine her life trend completely. She was a filmstar, married a filmstar and is now into politics also because of her fanclub following. This is MALAVYA MAHAPURUSHA YOGA AT ITS BEST. Shiva gives one blessing to a Manushya Jataka at a time. Sometimes in charts you find three or more planets exalted. We should not get carried away by this and try to determine the strongest that will dominate. As regards her D-10 Lagna, it is Sagittarius and it was on this basis that I had predicted her stupendous rise in Jupiter antardasa of Rahu Dasa (AM Feb'1996: Dasamsa of Politicians). The present period of Saturn shall prove to be bad. What is the basis for taking D-10 Lagna as Capricorn? Please do not use fifth house from Ghatika lagna in D-10 chart for your arguments. I don't agree with that. How would Mars give her so much power in its Dasa? I hope the entire list benefits from this discussion between me and Narasimha.

You say that "Sanjay Rath has results akin to > Bhadra yoga in D-24 related matters". > > I guess we are saying the same thing, but in different words... > > RATH: No, we are not. The yardsticks are very different. I am saying just what you said in the very first para quoted above. Whether we use the word mahapurusha or not is irrelevant to me. What is relevant is that the person experiences "quite similar" results that are "akin to mahapurusha yoga" and "limited to the aspects ruled by the division". These expressions are quoted from you and I am saying exactly the same thing. When it comes to "yardsticks", they apply in vargas AS WELL AS rasi. Not every person with these yogas in vargas is a mahapurusha. At the same time, nor is every person with these yogas in rasi a mahapurusha! RATH: Here we are..I was trying to define the Yardsticks for calling a person a Mahapurusha. As regards the chart of Ms Jayalalitha, we have to determine between the stronger of Venus and Jupiter in her chart to actually say which yoga has dominated and shall prevail.

As regards her D-10 Lagna, it is Sagittarius and it was on this basis that I had predicted her stupendous rise in Jupiter antardasa of Rahu Dasa (AM Feb'1996: Dasamsa of Politicians). The present period of Saturn shall prove to be bad. What is the basis for taking D-10 Lagna as Capricorn? Please do not use fifth house from Ghatika lagna in D-10 chart for your arguments. I don't agree with that. How would Mars give her so much power in its Dasa? (1) How do you say that exalted Venus dominates over moolatrikona Jupiter? Venus has 3 bindus in ashtakavarga and Jupiter has 7. Jupiter is in own house in 5 of saptavargas (7). A planet in many own vargas with 7 ashtakavarga bindus is extremely strong. So what exactly makes Venusian influence dominate? (2) In punyamsa/karmamsa (D-10), Chandala yoga with *neecha* Rahu weakens Jupiter a lot. So, as for as karma is concerned, Jupiter cannot give the results of Hamsa yoga present in rasi chart. (3) Why do I prefer Cp lagna in Jayalalita's D-10? (a) Saturn owns and aspects lagna. Her self-centered nature in karma is better exaplained. (b) Venus owns 10th and occupies 6th. Moon occupies 10th. Her successful acting career during Venus dasa is better explained. © Moon owns 7th and occupies 10th. Darapada is in 10th. These factors explain her career growth by association with fellow-actor and chief minister MGR much better. (d) Mars is in 8th and aspects lagna. Saturn and Sun also aspect lagna. These factors explain her short-tempered, irritable, arrogant, selfish,mean, dominating and authoritative attitude (in karma) much better than Sg lagna with Jupiter in it. (e) Mercury in 2nd explains her excellent public speeches than 2nd lord Saturn in 12th (with Sg lagna). (f) Sun in 5th explains her charismatic following. (4) How would Mars give much power during his dasa? (a) Well, Mars owns Ghatika lagna (Aries) in D-10 and aspects it from Leo. He can certainly give power. (b) You said "Please do not use fifth house from Ghatika lagna in D-10 chart for your arguments. I don't agree with that." I don't know what to say. You suggest looking only at aspects on GL and not taking houses. But Parasara clearly recommended finding houses w.r.t. GL. It is not my invention. © Mars gives viparita raja yoga w.r.t. arudha lagna. As you often teach, arudha lagna is the seat of illusion in this material world and important for raja yogas. Because of this viparita raja yoga, Mars took her to the top in Tamil Nadu politics. However, Mars occupies 8th from lagna (the seat of truth) and she may have indulged in secret and dubious activities. [Note: VRY w.r.t. AL is true for my Cp lagna as well as your Sg lagna] (5) About your correct prediction: I predicted last year that Jayalalita would desert BJP and her enemies (DMK) would join her friends (PMK, MDMK, BJP etc) and that everyone would turn against her. Correct predictions don't necessarily confirm that the data is correct. > I hope the entire list benefits from this discussion between me and Narasimha. I hope so too. *I* appreciate this discussion with you! > Hare Rama Krishna, > Sanjay May Jupiter's light shine on us, Your grateful sishya, Narasimha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 1999 Report Share Posted September 11, 1999 Om Sree Gurubhyo Namah Pranaam Sanjay, Thank you for your kind elaboration. The discussion started with the definition of the Mahapurusha Yoga where I had objected to the stretching of these Yoga's to trines from Lagna or even to the Sun or Moon Lagna charts. I too object those views. These Mahapurusha Yoga are dependant on the extent to which the Pancha Tatwa, their respective Indriya's etc. are in perfect harmony with nature thereby producing Godly qualities. Can you kindly elaborate? For example, if Jupiter is in Pisces in Lagna and other factors favouring (as explained) the Hamsa Mahapurusha Yoga results. But if this Jupiter is debilitated in dasamsa, the "Fame" will not accrue. Does this make the Mahapurusha Yoga defunct or inapplicable? The person maybe an incognito Maharishi meditating in the Himalaya's. Or he may be an average person. We don't have millions of mahapurushas born when Jupiter transits Pi. Thus Fame (Dasamsa) should not be a criteria for deciding Mahapurusha Yoga. It is not. But some of the results given for Mahapurusha yogas pertain to fame. Those results cannot materialize unless dasamsa is involved. Those results of Bhadra yoga that are related to knowledge cannot materialize unless D-24 is involved. Thus, we can conclude that while almost all yoga will be applicable to the divisional charts, the Pancha Mahapurusha Yoga's should be dealt with carefully and stem from the Rasi Chart. Prof. P.S. Sastri and you have Mercury in a quadrant in Gemini in D-24, but do not have Bhadra yoga in rasi chart. I call you both Bhadra yoga persons (or mahapurushas) in the matter of knowledge. If you agree that Prof. Sastri is a mahapurusha in the matter of knowledge, I will rest my case. (B) You wrote:How do you say that exalted Venus dominates over moolatrikona Jupiter? You give the argument of using the Astakavarga Bindu for determining the strength, a very relevant point. The definition of the Mahapurusha Yoga is based on the "Placement of the Planet" like Sthanabala and OOchabala where the order of merit is the Exaltation followed by Moolatrikona and then Swakshetra. Thus, Venus exalted in the tenth is Pisces is stronger than Jupiter in Sagittarius to give its results and dominate her life. We should stick to this as given in the definition of the Yoga's. Not only Jupiter has 7 ashtakavarga bindus, but he is in own sign in many amsas. Isn't that strength? In sthana bala, Jupiter is stronger than Venus. In shadbala, they are similar. Both are in benefic shashtyamsas. Comparing the strengths is a nontrivial exercise here. ©You wrote: In punyamsa/karmamsa (D-10), Chandala yoga with *neecha* Rahu weakens Jupiter a lot. So, as for as karma is concerned, Jupiter cannot give the results of Hamsa yoga present in rasi chart. But it did because of its placement in Lagna as the Lagna Lord. Further, Rahu debilitated in a kendra does give Rajyoga as explained ealier with the Horoscope of Bhagawan Sri Ramachandra. (It gave Rajyoga for one of His enemies). This Chandala Yoga means "Betrayal of the trust of the Guru" and this was the cause of the fall of the Vajpayee Govt...CHANDALA KARMA. It functioned exactly in Rahu-Jup-Rahu. OK, I won't quote my warnings that were also published. She rose in Mars dasa and fell in Rahu dasa. Barring temporary success at last hustings, Rahu dasa didn' really give any rajayoga. In fact, it took away chief ministership from her. (D) Why do I prefer Cp lagna in Jayalalita's D-10? (b) Venus owns 10th and occupies 6th. Moon occupies 10th. Her successful acting career during Venus dasa is better explained. Here we are trying to decide the Venusian influence that determined her rise in movies. "SHASTA SUKRA MARANA KARAKA." Thus in the sixth Venus is ill placed and its traits would be very much damaged. Instead with Sagittarius Lagna, Venus would be in the seventh and its traits would be over emphasised making her a BIG filmstar. It is also the planet producing the Malavya Mahapurusha Yoga and its placement in the seventh in D-10 will surely enhance its potential. Though in 7th, Venus is a functional malefic for Sg lagna. Though in 6th (BTW, "Bhrigu sutram" thinks very highly of Venus in 6th), Venus is a *yogakaraka* for Cp lagna. Whose dasa would be more promising for career? That of yogakaraka (10th lord!) in 6th or a functional malefic in 7th? I'll go with the former. BTW, Venus has 5 bindus and occupies a sign with 32 bindus in D-10. (d) Mars is in 8th and aspects lagna. Saturn and Sun also aspect lagna. These factors explain her short-tempered, irritable, arrogant, selfish,mean, dominating and authoritative attitude (in karma) much better than Sg lagna with Jupiter in it. Any planet in the 8th house (especially in D-10) irrespective of where it aspects ruins Rajyoga's. It can be good for business (7th house matters) as it causes Argala on the seventh and brings big loans for the business, but for Rajyoga it is terrible. It starts behaving like Sanidev (Karaka for the 8th) and opposes the Sun (Karaka for Rajyoga). As the 4th & 11th Lord in the 8th house it causes DURYOGA and definitely destroys Rajyoga. Instead for Sagittarius Lagna in D-10, Mars is the fifth lord (Power and authority in Govt.) and is placed in the 9th house of good fortune. Thus, she was in power during Mars dasa and inspite of initial opposition to her presidency of the AIADMK party, she won the battle royal. Thus Sagittarius is a better Lagna in D-10. The way I look at it, lagna shows one's true nature. When looking at victory in a battle royal or political power, true nature is not what matters. Arudha lagna (perceptions) and ghatika lagna (power) are much more important. Mars in 8th from lagna shows being under pressure and also hidden activities. Being GL lord aspecting GL from 5th and having viparita raja yoga, Mars can give political power. I don't see being in 8th from lagna as a factor that rules it out.

Guest guest Posted September 11, 1999 Report Share Posted September 11, 1999 JAYA JAGANNATHDear Narasimha, The portions we have agreed to have been cropped.

We are really small people compared to the one who had originally composed the Upadesa Sutra "Maharishi Jaimini". Yes, Maharishi Jaimini is a Mahapurusha and not I. While I agree with you that in the matters of knowledge, Maha-Saraswati has been somewhat kind to us and to that extent your views about the effects of Bhadra Yoga in D-24 are correct.

RATH: Is this SAV in the D-10 or the Rasi Chart? If so, does this result alter drastically for Sagittarius Lagna? If not, then this statement has no meaning as it does not see differences between Cp & Sg. (d) Mars is in 8th and aspects lagna. Saturn and Sun also aspect lagna.

Secondly, does the GL get altered for Sagittarius rising in the D-10, if not, then this statement is also meaning less as it does not show any difference between Sg & Cp Lagna. YOU HAVE USED FIFTH FROM GL OUT HERE KNOWING WELL MY VIEWS ON THIS. HARE RAMA KRISHNA, SANJAY RATH P.S.I am very happy to see the feedback from the other readers. While we have, on principle concluded most of the points on the Mahapurusha Yoga, readers may kindly note that the minor difference is mainly on what we define as the Yardstick.
