Achyuta Gurukul] SJC Delhi Meeting 20/4-Vivekananda

[Guest guest]

Om Namo Gurubrihaspathaye

Dear Sarbani and Gurus

I had a quick glance and adding few points to you. Since me too learning waiting

for others comments.

The Atmakaraka is 9th lord Sun, gloriously situated in lagna, which is

Sagittarius. Sun is also the lord of Arudha Lagna. It is situated in the 2nd

house in the Navamsa, indicating a high level of spirituality. Mars is the 5th

lord placed in the 5th in its own house Aries. The trinal houses thus indicate

a very high agni component, making his chart vibrant, which was depicted in his

glowing personality. There is Tapasvi yoga, with Saturn, Venus and Ketu placed

in trines from each other. The presence of benefics in the 3rd and 6th from the

AL and that of malefics in the 2nd from UL, also shows Parivrajya Yoga.

 

Benefics in 3rd or 6th in generally good as they are not going to fight, but

give up, or defeating in battles.To have best results, these benefics must be

strong in Navamsa chart.Jupiter is in Lagna in his friend's place, but mercury

and Venus are considerably weak to make him spiritual. Instead, Venus forming

Viparita Raja Yoga, as debilitated in Nawamsa. Even these planets add to

Swami's spiritual path by improve qualities of AHIMSA, I think this is not the

complete Pravraj yoga for him. In addition to this, Saturn and Rahu in 2nd and

4th from much stronger for spirituality. Saturn is in own rasi in Nawamsa chart

with Mars..going to exaltation. So Maraka to AL, UL and A7. Agree with your

point.

But as you explained, 12th from karakamsa (Moksha) is rising with strong tapasvi

yoga in both Rasi and Drekkana chart is the 1st rate yoga for spirituality and

this is again conformed by the Saturn Moon combination.Kevala too influenced by

Saturn.

 

AK Sun is a mahayogada, placed in lagna, which is also the Hora Lagna and the

Ghati Lagna. This conforms the fact that he attained fame internationally by

establishing the order of the Ramakrishna Math, which is spread all over the

globe, became renowned as one of the foremost preachers of Hinduism in the West

and wrote innumerable books on religion. He became famous for his dictum, which

is primarily his guru’s message, that the Vedas must be rescued from the

forests and brought back into the household and that Hinduism should be

released from the clutches of the “touch not” mantra, which has pervaded the

kitchens of India. Sun thus gave him unending fame, made him build temples and

made him heed the call of his atma, and follow its spiritual path.

I think Sun and Jupiter building temples. Sun is 9th lord(vargottama), in lagna

which is 9th of the natural zodiac, with Jupiter's argala on it. Jupiter aspect

9th house, rasi dristi. The yoga for undying fame is Jupiter and/or Moon. How

ever swami is famous and have to agreed the friend of Guru, Sun, (karaka for

lagna, fame) is in lagna done the job for Guru.

The planet in the 12th house from Karakamsa is Jupiter, placed in the Navamsa

lagna. Jupiter in Navamsa lagna as ishta can mean both Maha Vishnu and Sada

Shiva. I kind of cheated, as I knew beforehand that he was an ardent devotee of

Shiva as also his innumerable childhood stories related to the great lord.

However we could not conform it in the chart. Saravali says Jupiter in lagna

means Shiva, but if we follow our regular ishta calculation method it can also

mean Vishnu. How do we determine this? Aspects did not help, as Saturn and

Mercury points more towards Vishnu. Prashant’s opinion was that since Mars is

the dispositor of ishta, it might imply Rudra and hence Shiva. I instinctively

went towards the fact that Sun was such a strong AK in his chart that it surely

pointed towards Shiva, although I cannot explain it logically. We looked up VRA

later and there the explanation is given according to Sun in the lagna. (As I

write this, I notice, Jupiter is aspecting an exalted Venus in the 5th in

Navamsa. Venus in 5th is Mrityunjaya, so this clinches the case for Shiva).

The strongest planet in trine indicate the davata one like to worship. Sun is

stronger than Mars indicate Shiva, the Guru. How ever his Ishta davata

represented by Jupiter. It is a totally different concept as one may not be

identified his Ishta devata for whole life time. But natural tendancy to

worship is found with every body isn't ?

 

There is a Kalika yoga with Saturn and Moon in Virgo in the 10th. Saturn is BK,

and the Kalika yoga clearly conforms that his guru was the priest of Goddess

Kali of Dakshineswar, and a devout worshipper of the Divine Mother, having the

privilege of Her sakshat darshan. Sanjayji has explained this in his books many

times too, that this shows Vivekananda’s guru came from the tradition of Kali.

There is a very interesting exchange between the 2nd and 10th lords, Saturn and

Mercury. The 2nd house, Capricorn is also his Mantrapada, lorded by BK Saturn.

Saturn goes to Virgo forming Kalika yoga with Moon in the 10th, and its lord

Mecury is in the 2nd. Maybe other gurus on the List can elaborate on the true

meaning of such an exchange.

Never heard about Kalika yoga before. Do you have any details for us ?

 

We looked at Drig Dasha for timing his renunciation. I feel Capricorn-Virgo

dasha was extremely important, for the reasons given above. Capricorn dasha,

containing his Mantrapada, lasted from 1883-1887. Cap-Vir was for 5 months in

the beginning of 1883. This was followed by Cap-Leo, Leo being his AL. This too

is a probable period. Cap-Tau was for 4 months in mid-1884. During Cap-Vir he

must have met Sri Ramakrishna, perhaps even renunciated, but as far as my

memory serves me, he renunciated later. Probably in 1884 during Cap-Tau? The

Math was established perhaps in the first half of 1886 when Cap-Sag was

operating. We verified later that Sri Ramakrishna left his earthly body in

1886, and I know for a fact that the Math was established after he left for the

heavenly abode; so 1886 seems like a probable date. Sagittarius is his lagna

with AK Sun forming the mahayogada there. We must remember that Sun is also AL

lord. So Lagna plays an important role in the establishment of the Ramakrishna

Math. In vimshottari, he was undergoing Rahu mahadasha. From 1882 to 1888 he

went through the antardashas of Mercury, Ketu and Venus, all planets associated

with his guru, mantrapada and Parivrajya yoga. This also coincides with Cap-Vir

and Cap-Tau Drig dashas. The period 1883-1887 is the probable time when he

renunciated and established the order. If this time frame is confirmed then we

can attempt to narrow it down. I have not tried to conform these dates yet.

Within the time period you given, Rahu /Mer Vimsottari dasa, Ketu was in Aries

(10.1882-04.1884). It must be Capricorn Driga dasa (A5 and aspect AL),and Leo

sub (AL). Can be narrow down to April 1883 to Sep.

 

Before he met Sri Ramakrishna, Vivekananda used to frequent the Brahmo Samaj,

like most of his Western educated contemporaries. In that sense Vivekananda was

very much a product of renaissance Bengal. After he met Thakur, he left the

Samaj. We wondered whether this could be determined from his chart.

 

This maybe very simplistic. Awaiting response form gurus.

 

What is Brahmo Samaj Sarbani ? No Idea.

Thanks

Karu
