Guest guest Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Hio Arjun, and ALL others who set the chain rolling on rahu, ketu, research etc GURU in all Yogas had a supreme role and in the 1st 3 Yugas THE most, in current Yuga he has lesser role as Kali Yuga represents a world without scrouples, values, ethics. if we see how children taking parents to court or worse murdering parents/siblings for wealth/inheritance. the way amdinistrators instead of proteticing public welfare r doing opposite. IF GURU's benefic aspects has changed them a bit it is a blessing but as our puranas show Guru represents Deva Guru and Sukra represents asura's GURU, by which we mean a conflict between materialistic and humane values (avoiding spiritual here as it will open and pandora's box) I DISAGREE with notions that Guru spoils the house he is in or is a malefic etc. Guru's aspect in society where values r there is important makes u remain in the right side of the law/society but in current times TESTS one to his limits to stay on moral course. CAN U AVOID giving bribes even if u refuse to take it? will anyone avoid using a recomondation letter anywhere be it a job, electricty dept or water board, corporation, IT etc or darshan at a temple? in some form there is breach of values. GURU TESTS u and u may more often falter. SO HOW DO U EXPECT GURU's benefic aspect to count on such people? u must rather expect Sukra, sani or rahu's aspect to count. BHAGAVAN KE GHAR PAR DHER HAI, ANDHER NEHIN is what Guru does. but others allow u to stoop.a dher is avoidable or purchasable. If the trend of fast breaking up of marriages, families is on. it is due to Guru's aspect mostly please take a fresh look at this, as the calling of restraint or saner voice from within is discarded and Ego, emotional weightlessness, lack of tolerance and consequences of them breaking up and children from such broken familes make a terrible society, inspite of all their achievements u can c many celebrities suffer from broken family relationships values, it is Guru's aspect that was wasted. GURU CAN'T BE THE CAUSE THE LACK of discretion, TOLERANCE, MUTUAL RESPECT TO ONE ANOTHER IS the casue. these r the qualities Guru is given and bestows there r two way traffic, u remanin moral, rightious, lawful it is a benefic. for law breakers itis a malefic if they wish to call it one.

and ketu having only planetary status and are not assigned any rashi, uchha or neecha or mooltrikon and also no yoga or conjunction results formed with these two demons enjoying planetary status. it is only modern researches who tried to put these rank malefics as karmic planets and felicitated them with the titles of "vairagya karaka" and "moksha karaka". just because someone said so, other astrologers also started attributing these dispositions. in the name of freedom of expression and research, several astrologers are finding jupiter malefic these days and long threads of jupiter giving malefic results were found in several groups. some say that jupiter spoils the house where he sits. in my personal understanding of the holy scriptures, jupiter is the guru of devatas and is the best benefic in the entire solar system. any dosha of any planet is mitigated or reduced just with the conjunction or aspect of jupiter. jupiter is the karaka of more than half of the houses. if a jupiter is weak or debilitated or placed in a dusthana, i only tell the native that jupiter is not able to help him because of this and that but never paint jupiter as a malefic. that is the respect we were taught to show towards jupiter or guru. in olden days, even though astrology was taught in gurukul style and learnt by brahmins practicing gayatri chantings and other mantra recitals on a daily basis, the predictions were more based on divine intuition and less on bookish knowledge. with so many contradictory rules written by various astrologers, only divine intuition gives the correct predictions. for example for timing of events, according to the classics, if a native is born in the shuklapaksa, ashtottari dasa is reckoned and if a native is born in the krishnapaksha, vimshottari dasa is reckoned. even in these two systems also dasa periods, sequence and number of planets are all different. there are many more dasha sysems and predictions based on them give entirely differnt picture. these days most astrologers are using only vimshottari system. with all these contradictions and confusions, only the divine energy or intuition or clairvoyance of an astrologer can give correct predictions. if one tries to predict based on astrology as a science it just does not work. astrology software in a computer is not a vending machine which can give predictions of a native just by pressing a button. i agree with your observatin of "Rama" as the most respectable word. mere utterance of "ram" is in itself a mantra and benefits the native. this is the way people like you and me look at lord ram. similar is the respect we have for jupiter or guru, be it planet guru or human guru. if someone in the name of research criticises lord ram and jupiter, may god bless him. having said all the above, i respect freedom of expression of each member and each has the right to agree or disagree with my observations. with best wishes and regards pandit arjun , Prashant Kumar G

"mokshakaraka" to ketu which gained popularity. these researchers also presented saturn as planet of patience and were painting saturn, rahu and ketu as benefics or karmic planets in their own languages. recently i was > shocked when some researchers were painting jupiter as a rank malefic and how jupiter spoils his own house and they chose to cite lord rama's chart saying jupiter as the culprit. if this trend continues in the name of research, all malefics would become benefics and all benefics would become malefics. > > the above are my own observations and it is your logic to
