Sarpa Yoga, Kalasarpa Yoga and Rahu Musings

[Guest guest]

HARE RAMA KRISHNA,

OM GURAVE NAMAH

 

Dear Gurudev and List members,

I received a copy of Gurudev Pt.Sanjay Rath's book "Vedic Remedies

in Astrology".As I was just glancing through the pages, I saw the

combination and remedies for Sarpa Yoga(3 malefics in quadrants) and

Kalasarpa Yoga(All planets between Rahu's head and Kethu's tail).I

have both these yogas in my horoscope with Sun Rahu and Kethu in

10th,1st and 7th forming Sarpa Yoga and all planets within the nodal

axis and no planet conjoining rahu or kethu.The sarpa yoga is quite

strong with rahu and kethu vargothama in virgo and pisces respectively

 

1)Gurudev has advocated appeasement to serpents by doing puja to a

golden vigraha of the serpent deity.I was brought up in bangalore and

astrologers around this place used to recommend doing this puja in

kukke subrahmanya shrine at kukke( a place near dharmasthala).Should

this puja be done in a specific shrine only?

 

2)For a person who does not have means to do this puja with a golden

vigraha, can just appeasement by rahu mantra work?

 

3)Even if appeasement by rahu mantra will work, would not the person

get the bad qualities of rahu by appeasing him. I tried chanting rahu

ashtottara about 2 years ago when rahu was transiting in an inimical

postiton from my natal chandra.With rahu in lagna (kanya) forming a

kalasarpa yoga, i started getting cheating and devious tendencies

though i got lesser obstructions in my work. i therefore stopped it

immediately.

This brings the question to "Should appeasement of malefic planets be

done to their deities(vishnu murthy or otherwise) instead of the

planets themselves to get good results OR What is the difference is

worshipping the deity associated with the planet and the planet

itself"

 

4) You have also mentioned in your mails earlier that tirupathi

balaji is the vishnu deity for rahu worship.I did read the puranas of

tirupathi balaji sometime ago and what i remember is that "In the

test of Maharshi Bhrigu when Vishnu was declared the Supreme

Personality of Godhead, Lakshmi got angry due to Maharshi Bhrigu

insulting Lord Vishnu during the course of the test and went to

Sholapur in Maharashtra. As Lakshmi had left him, Vishnu also came

down to Earth and when he was thinking of settling in the region

around present day Tirupathi, he met Lord Varaha and after a duel,

Lord varaha allowed him to stay in that place as a tenant.After this

the purana goes further.To this day, devotees have to visit varaha

swamy temple in tirumala before visiting balaji ( as landlord is to

be visited before visiting tenant). " But, this does not conclusively

state that tirupathi balaji is varaha murthy. Doesn't this mean that

Tirupathi Balaji is Maha Vishnu form and therefore Guru (Jupiter)

the indicating planet and not Rahu ?

Or did you mean that since Tirupathi balaji defeated Lord Varaha, in

order to overcome the doshas of rahu (varaha), we have to worship a

person stronger than HIM, Lord Venkateshwara?

 

5)Gurudev Pt.Sanjay Rath also indicated that for people with

Kalasarpa Yoga , Rahu becomes the atmakarak till 45(?) years of

age.May I know the source for this and if so will the remaining

planets form the successive chara karaks, i.e, the atmakarak by

calculation becomes the amatya karak , the amatya karak becomes the

bhratru karak and so on.

Ex: Say by calculation :

Ravi - Atmakarak

Chandra - Amatya

Kuja- Bhratru

Budha - Matru

Guru - Putra

Sukra - Pitra

Rahu - Gnati

Sani - Dara.

 

Due to the Kalasarpa yoga rider, does the karak listing now becomes

Rahu - Atmakarak

Ravi - Amatya

Chandra - Bhratru

Kuja- Matru

Budha - Putra

Guru - Pitra

Sukra - Gnati

Sani - Dara.

i.e, those planets who have traversed lesser longitude than rahu do

not undergo change in their karak's but only thos who have traversed

more degrees than rahu.

 

I have asked these questions without reading the book fully.Please

excuse me for my rushing forward.If the answers to the above

questions are in the book, kindly point out the reference.

 

Please clarify my doubts expressed above,

 

Your sishya
