Guest guest Posted February 16, 2003 Report Share Posted February 16, 2003 Dear Sundeep, To those like me who're zilch in math, could you please explain some of the figures you've stated? For example: "Assuming everything is independent, 16% of all people would have Ke in 4th or 12th. If you additionally put the Pi and Cn limitation, you cut it down to about 3% of the population." However so?? If it was Ke being in 4th or 12th from the asc, I can understand the 16% thing, but this combo is for k'sha or k'shaka. When a slow-moving planet gets to be the AK (like now for example), Ke won't be in 4th or 12th from k'sha for quite a while. In fact, the closest possibility to a straight-line determination like you've posited comes when the faster ones like Mo, Su, Me or Ve get to be AK. I also don't know why, like you say, only a very small percentage of the populace needs to be heading for moksha. By stating the impossibility of a guy getting moksha when Ra gets to be the AK, I think you've played the devil's advocate (rightly) against k'sha. K'shaka looks the more probable term, and correct too.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 JAYA JAGANNATHA! Dear Jyotisha, Namaste. My understanding about Moksha yogas is the following: It would be futile to assume that any number of the polulation will attain moksha just on the strength of the combinations in their charts. Therefore I think it is useless to attempt any mathematical models to this. Indeed Jaimini, Parashara and other classics give several combinations for moksha, out of which some have extremely relaxed conditions, for example even one strong benefic in 12th from Karakamsha gives moksha. So my way to deal with this is the following: 1. Look for moksha yogas in D-1, D-9, D-20 and D-60. 2. Thorougly analyse the strangth to these combinations and any badha to them. 3. Analyse the overall spiritual strength of the chart. 4. Anaylse AK thoroughly. I have compiled an article on this which is to appear in the March issue of JD, although I still couldn't send it to Sarbani because her mailbox bounces saying it's full. Sarbani, please reply to me in private if you read this. 5. Analyse 7th house in Rasi and Navamsa, as this will indicate the causes for rebirth. 6. Analyse Pravrajya combinations. If all the above say OK, then you can infer that the native will attain moksha. On the other hand, someone without these combinations is still not excluded, as by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mercy even the most fallen can go back to Godhead if the take to the process of chanting Lord Krishna's hol name.

Guest guest Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 I think the strength of combination in the chart is because of the past karma because of which we are born with that combination, not other way around. Just a thought... With best regards, Sadashiv.
