Guest guest Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 Dear B.Laxmi, I know ,not much, about palmistry but think the reason is that Mount of Jupiter is situate at the base of Index finger is the reason that Index finger is treated as finger of Jupiter.

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, "triptka" <triptika@h...> wrote:> from family tradition, what i know is --this finger represent 'Ahamkara'[Ego], so it is excluded in puja process where total surrender is primary requirement.> > Jupiter is also karaka for ' superiority'[ Guru Tatva/ gurutva] and also 'Gyana' [knowledge] & 'Tarka' [ logic] while 'Bhakti'> can not be attained with 'logic' -- one can be a ' Gyan Yogi' or ' Karma Yogi ' but not ' Bhakti Yogi '.> > hope this looks logical..> triptika> - > b_lakshmi_ramesh <b_lakshmi_ramesh> > > Sunday, January 19, 2003 7:03 AM> [sJC: Achyuta Gurukul] Jupiter & Index finger> > > Om Gurave Namah> > Namaste Guruji,> > I am puzzled by the paradox of Jupiter lording index finger, since > this finger is expressly excluded in all japa rituals. > > Can someone clarify?> > Regards,> Lakshmi> > > > > > > Sponsor > > > > > > [Om Kleem Krishnaaya Jagannathaaya namah]> Send a blank mail> To : -> To : > > Your use of is subject to the [Om Kleem Krishnaaya Jagannathaaya namah]Send a blank mailTo : -To : Your use of is subject to the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
