Re:Why I am not able to study astrology

[Guest guest]

Respected Gurudev,

Thank you very much for the reply.

Am I to only collect astrology books in this birth and wait for some other birth

to study this subject?

Why am I not able to concentrate when I try to study astrology?

Gurudev,Please guide me.

With regards,

Jagmeet

Dear Jagmeet,

 

Do not fret. The worrying shows that, not only are you concerned

about your progress( a good indication) and that you are also making

sufficient progress!!!

 

Astrology is like a vast ocean and one is likely to get lost. But

the more one tries, the more comfortable one gets. However, this is

where an enlightened being(Deva) guides you in the correct direction

by removing the darkness of ignorance(Guru). Hence when the time is

right, you will find your Gurudeva.

 

I must say, that you have a wonderful chart. So dont lose hope.

 

Jupiter aspects the houses 2, 5, 8 & 11 in D1. He has either aspect

or argala over these houses in Navamsa and Siddhamsa.

 

You are running the Dasa of Sun. Sun is the 5L of intelligence in 8H

of occult. He has a yoga with Saturn the 10L here. This is a good

yoga, and will help you in Astrological pursuits. Now Saturn is also

a badhakesh and hence you will face some obstacles. In D24 or

Siddhamsa, Sun himself is the baadhakesh. So, all in all, there will

be obstacles in your path. Hence, before you start your reading,

please pray to Lord Ganesha who is Vigneshwara or the remover of all

obstacles.

 

Nevertheless you will definitely make strides. Here Sun is in star

of Mercury which is in 9H. The next dasa of Moon in 4H in own house

is also in star of Mercury in 9H(all in D1).

 

Incidentally, Moon is conjoined with two other benefics Mercury &

Jupiter in Siddhamsa and will help you in Jyotisha related

activities.

 

Your Ishta Devata is Laksmi(Venus), and repeated chanting of the

Dasakshari Mantra "Om Namo Lakshmi Narayanaya" will help. Venus is

also your Siddhamsa Lagna lord.

 

Now for some practical tips on studying. Start with something

simple, focus on general rules of judgement given in various texts,

take charts and try understanding. Make notes. Participate in chats,

we have various members always online, discussing, this will help

you a lot. Try and attempt charts here. If you make mistakes its ok.

Learn from them. Observe how other people attempt charts. That will

teach you a lot. I myself learn more by examples than by reading

abstract statements. So I always analyze Narasimha's & other members

examples. Go through the archives. All these techniques will help.

 

Good Luck.

Regards

Skanda

om jaya jagannatha

Dear Jagmeet,

 

One more thing, you might also wanna start inculcating the regular

practice of meditation & pranayama in your life. This helps the mind

from wandering, and brings in qualities like steadiness & awareness.

 

Before you start reading Jyotisha or meditation or for that matter

before you begin your day, please consider chanting the following

Ganesha Mantra:

 

Om Ekadantaaya Vidmahe

Vakratundaaya Dhimahi

Tanno Buddhih Prachodayaat

 

One more advice ... before I finally stop bothering you ). Instead

of asking a negative question like the one you did, try channeling

your mind in positive direction, by asking positive questions,

like "How can I improve my reading habbits?" whereby the mind

searches for positive answers.

 

Regards

Skanda

Om Namo Lakshmi Narayanaya

Friends,the reason I am taking up so much of bandwidth is not that I want to

blow my own trumpet but it is just that I want some guidance from the learned

ones.

 

Dear Skanda Ji,

Thank you very much for having taken time to reply to my query. It has given me

lot of hope. I wanted to assimilate what you have written and put my thoughts

together before replying,hence the delay in thanking you.

I haven't taken any Mantra Diksha but I do the following.

I do light a jyot(I am changing over to Diya)and agarbatti everyday and pray in

the temple in my bedroom. I start with the following Mantra of Lord Ganesah, as

suggested by Sanjay Ji for a swetark Ganapathi(which belonged to late Pandit

Kapildev Mishra Ji who was an astrologer,face reader and Karamkand expert).In

fact all the Yantras and Sphatik shivlinga were given to me by him after

Pranpartista during the period of 1991 to 1995. I became a vegetarian in

1991.Pandit Ji had himself taken out the swetark root and got The Ganapati made

as per proper raftsman Ji was given to me by his wife after his passing away in

1995 .

Suklambaram dharam Vishnu

Sashi varnam chaturbhujam

Prasanna badanam dhyayet

sarva vighnopa-shantayet.

2)Surya mantra-Om Adidev Namstbhay parsidhha mam bhaskar diwakar namastute.(surya Yantra)

3)Vishnu mantra-Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudeva(Photo)

4)Shiva Mantra-Om Namo Shiva(Shafatik Shivalinga)

5)Durga Mantra-Om Namo Chamunde Viche(Photo)

6)Gayatri Mantra-Om Tatsvitu Varniyam Vargo Devsay Dhemi Dhei yo Na Prchodayat.(Yantra)

As sugested by Gurudev in VRA,I do not use Bhurva swaha in the mantra(Yantra)

7)Shri Yantra Mantra-Om Shri Hrem Shri Hrem Shri Kamale kamalaye parsheed parsed

shri hrem shri Mahalaxmay namah.

8)Hanuman Mantra-I have got a framed picture of Hanumanji with five diffrent

faces.I was given this Calendra in Chilka in Orrisa by a liquor store owner.

Om shri pancvadnaye namha panchvakrtam mahabhim tripunchuratm bhabhidrusa

miyurtkam sarva kamarth siddhidam.

Guru-Mangala-Chandala Yoga in my horoscope will not let Guru find me that

easily.I think I really must have messed up things a lot in the past.

But I remember reading that Three of them connected together do indicate Kripa

of Lord Hanuman and I have felt the same.

Skand Ji,Please correct me if I am wrong.I think Mahadasha of Sun(5th lord in

8th),Moon(4th lord in 4th),should bring about more pursuit of

astrology.Mangal(lagna Lord,AK and in Nakastra of Guru)should bring about more

pursuit of a spirtual life.

Should Ruby be worn to strengthen Sun as it is in 8th house during the ongoing Dasha?
