Re: Achyuta Gurukul] Jupiter & Index finger

 

Om Gurave Namah

"Courier New";color:black">

Namaste Friends,

Thanks for your responses. While I got to understand why

"tarjani" is

considered inauspicious, my basic doubts about reasons for Jupiter's

lord ship of index finger still persist.

Could it be that index finger as a "pointer" gives the ability to

distinguish and the ability to judge…remember the Hamsa's (Swan's)

legendary ability to separate water from milk? Hence Jupiter's

lordship?

BTW, Swee, I am eagerly awaiting your response to Gurudeva's question.

Regards,

Lakshmi
