Dear Respected List Members,

Every Samskr`tam text on Jyotisha talks about Kaala Purusha and his

limbs asribed to various signs. I am wondering about Nakshatra-s and

kaala Purusha limbs. Can anybody shed more light on this. PandiTa

Sanjay can help us in this regard.

 

Here is what I got from the following article on Yugaadi:

http://www.sulekha.com/articledesc.asp?cid=189599

 

The following excerpt is from the above article.

 

"India's ancient sages chose the straight line between meshaadi and

Chitraa nakshatra in the sky as a marker in deciding the new year's

day. Why so? The basis for this convention is found in the Veda

mantra-s, particularly in some Rik mantra-s and nakshatrasooktam

mantra-s. Nakshatra-s of the Veda-s are described as the Cosmic

Being's form (nakshatraaNi roopam); they manifest as lights of deva-

devataa-s in this universe that has an organic life of its own. Yes,

ancient sages proclaimed that we are in a living Universe, just as

our modern cosmologists believe. Ashwini nakshatra-s are visualized

as the mouth of that Almighty -- that one underlying indivisible

Power permeating this universe -- name it what you wish -- Bhagawan,

God, Allah, It, Nature, etc. Sun and Moon in our vicinity (and

elsewhere) are the Purusha-prakr`ti symbols of That underlying One

Power. The Kr`ttikaa-s are described as Its senses, skull is

Mr`gasheersha, Aashleshaa is the belly, Hasta-s are hands,

Proshtapada-s (Bhaadrapada-s) are legs, Revati-s form feet, etc. The

cosmic feet touches the cosmic mouth in this brahmaanda just as with

a human baby in the embryo (brahmaanda = biggest ever egg; uni-verse

= the only one whole indivisible song)"

 

In Purushasooktam, it is said "ashwinau vyaaptam" - the two Ashwini-s

form mouth (of the Kaala Purusha). On Krittikaa, the mantra-s

say "nakshatram devamindriyam", etc. We need to hunt in the Veda-s

for more.

Dear Jagmeet,

This is the naisargika Nara Chakra. try making the same with your Janma

Nakshatra as the head and list your body parts. Then you can easily strengthen

each part using a suitable mantra from the 108 (27 nakshatra X 4 pada) names of

Bhagavan.

Respected Gurudeva,

Attached is a list of body parts and nakashtras from various sources.Narda

Purana and Varahamira lists match

 

GURUDEVA:This is the naisargika Nara Chakra. try making the same with your Janma

Nakshatra as the head and list your body parts.

As per your reply I have made a list of the body parts by taking Janam Nakashtra

as the head.I have actually shifted Ashlesha in front of HEAD and others have

been moved up in the same sequence as they are as per Narad Puran

Is it the correct method to make the list?

GURUDEVA:Then you can easily strengthen each part using a suitable mantra from

the 108 (27 nakshatra X 4 pada) names of Bhagavan.

I would be grateful if you could guide me towards the 108 (27 nakshatra X 4

pada) names of Bhagavan.With my limited or should I say zero knowledge I

couldn't find any information about the above.

With regards,

Jagmeet.
