Guest guest Posted May 12, 2003 Report Share Posted May 12, 2003 Om Gurave Namah Dear Sushmita, The presence of benefics will ease the suffering considerably. Jupiter’s placement in the 12th is considered one of the best positions for the Deva Guru, as Jupiter represents Vishnu. Posited in Vishnusthana, it is considered ideal, as it would receive the offering of fasting. The effects of ‘giving’ will be duly felt and the fruits of the fasting and sacrifice will be reaped. Malefics will ensure that you have to give that much more; that you will have to strive that much harder, expect frustrations, futility and delays. In the case of the presence of malefics, make sure you keep stringent, regular fasts followed by the annadana as discussed in the other mails. Fruits may be reaped after prolonged periods of sacrifice and giving, dependant upon the degree of maleficance. Mixed planets will give mixed results, and all of them subject to the normal astrological parameters of aspects etc. If you keep the basic philosophy of Gaunapada in mind then all confusion regarding whether or not to fast on the lord of AL’s day or “what happens when AL and UL are together, the lords are the same” kind of arguments, will dispel in a moment. Gaunapada fasting is a necessity for everybody whether they are unmarried, married or a parivrajak, as it will hasten the process of giving which is a must for all souls, as we are born for that very purpose. The giving should be complete, like surrender, like a flowing stream, and not painful, like the thought of ‘giving up’ something. The more we give, the smoother our life is in all its aspects. For those unmarried, Gaunapada also brings about marriage as marriage provides another karmic area for us to ‘give’. As I mentioned earlier marriage is not about physicality but a commitment to give. Otherwise, we would have simply taken the Arudhapada of the seventh house. Darapada does not denote giving; it merely pertains to the realities of the physical level. The Arudhapada of the 12th house denotes giving. As the Gaunapada is only about that, and that is all that is “gauna’ or matters. Sun is the greatest giver, and that is why the Sun is never malefic for Upapada (“naatra ravih paapa” – Jaimini) Those with AL and UL together are fortunate, as they have found the spouse with whom they are one in body, mind and soul. Sri Rama had AL and UL together. In such situations, giving becomes that much easier, smoother. If Darapada is conjoined, then it implies that the lover and the spouse are the same, or that the Darapada converted to Upapada. In both cases, they denote one person, and hence signify commitment and are ideal situations. yes"> Best regards, Garamond;color:navy;mso-color-alt:windowtext"> mso-color-alt:windowtext"> Sarbani mso-color-alt:windowtext"> Garamond"> 10.0pt;font-family:Tahoma;color:black"> Sushmita S [sushmita34 ] Monday, May 12, 2003 12:08 PM To: vedic astrology [vedic astrology] Re: Fasting on UL days 12.0pt"> Dear Sarbani, Thanks a lot for the illuminating knowledge on Gaunapada, it just makes more sense to me.

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2003 Report Share Posted May 13, 2003 Dear Learned Sarbani, Very nice of you to answer it with so much of depth. The concepts become so clearer. If, I can venture to ask something a bit complicated for me, they say one has to take UL as a serious relationship lasting one year and then count the number of relationships with the next UL being shifted to the 8th from the present one. 1. In case of a person who has had some serious relationships and now wants to pursue marriage or giving, should it be advised to fast on the original UL in the Rasi Chart or do we have to calculate the current UL. 2. What should be done in the case of Samdhi Lagna's. 3. On another thought, since Navamsa refers to inherent strengths and also the spouse, would it be more advisable to fast on the UL lords day of the D9 chart. This is in case of girl/boy wanting marriage. My sincere thanks to you and Kanu priya and others for answering my queries, I hope Guru Sanjay answers on those few remaining questions which Kanu Priya preferred not to reply .

In the modern context, however, people may have had serious relationships with commitments, which may not have materialized into a marriage in the legal sense because of extraneous factors. Such committed relationships, with marriage in mind, and which have lasted at least for a year, are to be considered as Upapadas. Otherwise, please consider them as Darapadas. Darapadas will include flings, brief affairs, casual dating, one-night stands, affairs which are purely motivated by a sexual attraction etc. Those who have had multiple Upapadas, whether in terms of relationships or marriages, will have to count that many Upapadas. For example, if your UL is in Cancer, then the 2nd UL representing the 2nd spouse/relationship will be the 8th from the first one. In this case it will be Aquarius. The third spouse/relationship will be the 8th sign from Aquarius, that is Virgo. And so on.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 Dear Sushmita, I am a beginner and very new to astrology. Am just trying to understand the concept of UL and AL. As per my amateur undestanding, UL is always 12th house from AL. Qutoing Robert Koch - It is also very important to note the Upapada lagna (Arudha of the 12th house), to determine the nature, attributes, and qualities of the spouse, as well as the times in life when marriage might, or might not, occur. Look for afflictions to the same, in cases wherein divorce is to be predicted. That is how we calculate UL. In that case, how can they be together as in Sri Ram's case? Or is there some other way of calcualting UL? Thanks. NC Gupta Rgds, vedic astrology, "sushmita34" <sushmita34> wrote: > Dear Learned Sarbani, > > Very nice of you to answer it with so much of depth.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 Dear Naresh, Greetings to you. No UL need not be always 12th from AL, I think you have got it wrong on the calculation of arudhas, pls refer to this link on how to do so. http://www.srath.com/lesson/vry_al.htm AL and UL can be together, I don't offhand remember charts where they are there, but I have come across such charts. When I find them I would send it to you on your personal id. Ok, here I copy a part of that article on how to calculate: CALCULATING ARUDHA LAGNA Counting the number of signs from the lord of Lagna as it has gained from Lagna we arrive at the Arudha Lagna. For example, if the lord of Lagna is in the third house, counting three signs from the third house, we arrive at the fifth house that becomes the Arudha Lagna. There are two riders to this firstly, if the Arudha Lagna is in the Lagna itself (i.e. the Lagna lord is in the first or seventh house). The tenth house should be treated as the Arudha Lagna. Secondly, if the Arudha Lagna is in the seventh house (i.e. the lord of Lagna is placed in the fourth and tenth house), then the fourth house should be treated as the Arudha Lagna. The Arudha Lagna plays a vital role in determining our states/job in this material world.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2003 Report Share Posted May 14, 2003 Dear Sarbani, Thank you once again for replying. My confusion on Nav UL fasting was as, D9 represents one's inherent strength, so I was under the thought that UL fasting of that might bring in more deeper/inner results. Thanks for removing that non- productive thought. Samdhi Lagna, maybe I misspelled it, well how can I say, Border Lagna, when the lagna degrees are just on the border or the sign has just changed. Some say that for correct analysis one should consider both lagna and try analysing the chart, so I was thinking then in that case the UL would change and one might have two ULs, so what should one do then. I read Guru Sanjay's article on marriage and since this topic is in one way related to it so I might venture into another query. "Bhagwan Vishnu sits in the ninth house of Dharma and worshipping him with the Astakshari mantra "OM NAMO NARAYANAYA" or meditating with the mantra " OM TAT SAT" is the best remedy." So can anyone married or unmarried recite this mantra for good marriage life, does the Pronunciation have to be perfect, is it one of those mantras as PVRs mail said self correcting mantra in terms of Pronunciation, I mean after many repititions one would get it correct surely. Thanks Mr. Shailesh for the other mail.

There are three types of Gandantas, Tithi, Nakshatra and Lagna Gandanta. Lagna Gandanta occurs between the junction points of Pisces-Aries, Cancer-Leo and Scorpio-Sagittarius. The ending half ghati of the first sign and the beginning half ghati of the second sign comprise the gandanta zone. Apart from this you have rashi sandhis and bhava sandhis, which are junction points between two signs and two houses respectively. All three types of junctions, that is gandantas, rashi sandhis and bhava sandhis, give differing results. I have never heard of two ULs being seen for Lagna Gandanta natives. I have Lagna Gandanta myself, and no one has ever told me to see two ULs. Neither have I heard my jyotish guru speak about it. The only time you have two ULs is when your 12th house is Scorpio or Aquarius. Since these two signs have dual lordships, there are two ULs. yes"> color:black"> I read Guru Sanjay's article on marriage and since this topic is in one way related to it so I might venture into another query.

I think we should always strive to perfect our pronunciations. Being a Bengali I have atrocious Sanskrit pronunciation which will not be perfected even in the next three births, but that does not mean I do not try. The main thing is bhakti. If you have bhakti in your heart and sincerely seek God, he will surely listen to you. So whatever mantra you recite, ensure that it is chanted with pure devotion and simultaneously try to perfect your pronunciation. color:black"> Thanks Mr. Shailesh for the other mail.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2003 Report Share Posted May 15, 2003 Dear Sarbani, Was reading yr post and got a doubt. vedic astrology, "Sarbani Sarkar" <sarbani@s...> wrote: > only time you have two ULs is when your 12th house is Scorpio or Aquarius. > Since these two signs have dual lordships, there are two ULs. My understanding was that for Sc/Aq we will take the stronger of the two lords and then find the UL. Although I have Saggi asc and have both Ke and Ma in the 11th and so the UL is 10th, but was wondering if they were placed in different houses then shud I have considered 2 ULs?
