Ashadh and marriage...Logical reason II part

[Guest guest]

Hello KD san,

 

Shitsurei shimasu.

 

Continuing with the logical approach of practical basis of Muhurthas and

marriages , not only Ashadha was avoided but Shravana, Bhadrapada(Being Pitru

masa) and also Ashvina was avoided in fixing marriages. Marriages in Dhanurmasa

were also discouraged and banned due to child birth taking place in

August-september for the same reasons .

Thinking logically, in olden days, biggest hinderence was safe transportation

followed by near death experience for women in productive age being Child Birth.

Infant/maternal mortality was very high.

Deaths due to infected waters were very high.

Thus if Marriages were to be conducted in Rainy season, the births would start

right from Vasant Ritu thro summer when maximum marriages were fixed for obvious

reasons like easy transport, lot of liquidity of money after crops were sold

etc.

Anything that would upset the applecart by death in delivery/child mortality etc

would affect many families due to SUTAKAM . The Brahmins would lose that much

business due to stoppage of Marriages and other samskaras from all affected

families who wold be observing sutakams.

Marriagesand child births being the most important of shodasha samskaras were

taken very seriously .(Due to economic reasons )

We need to understand that our ancestors , apart from being religious were

extremely logical in fixing timings for everything.

Every muhurtham/festival revolved around economy.Marriagesand child births

being the most important of shodasha samskaras were taken very seriously .(Due

to economic reasons )

People may have different views.

As self always says,

Tunde Tunde (Munde- Munde) Matir Bhinaa.

OBVIOUSLY, INTENTION IS SEPARATING COUPLES, SAYING IT IN A DIFFERENT

WAY! AND THERE ARE MANY MANY IMPLIED STYLES

OF SAYING THINGS WITH HIDDEN MEANING. ALL THOSE STUFF CAN NOT BE

REASONED ALWAYS AND THEY CONTINUE AS A PART OF CULTURE!

BUT REALLY IF SOMEONE CAN RELATE WITH SCIENTIFIC LOGIC, I WOULD BE

HAPPY TO KNOW!

 

And what Tat-twam-asi says as logical reason for 'avoiding any

Muhurtha in Aashadha' is true BUT it doesnot open up the

logic behind the present question in view - WHY ONLY FOR THE FIRST

TIME COUPLES ARE SEPARATED IN AASHADHA?

As far as RAINY season and agriculture is concerned, it is not at all

related in this case! Since it starts raining in

every AASHADHA and couples will not separate each year!

 

Logically - to avoid first labour at summer? Astrologically- to avoid

debility of Mercury, the key planet? is the real question!

 

It would be interesting to know that Sri Rama's chart and Ravana's

chart were alike except for Mercury in Taurus and Pisces respectively.

That makes sense why Mercury must be avoided from debility!(Ref.

Royal Horoscopes - B.SuryanarainRao, grand father of BV Raman)
