Dasavatara Stotra

June 1, 2003

Dear Sanjayji prabhu

I agree with your observations. I think the list attached below confers with

sage Parasara and Sri Vyasedava.

I wonder from what you have read and realised in your deep studies have you

found hearing and singing of Dasavatara Stotra beneficial in appeasing the

planets and the Supreme Lord simultaneously?

Just as one wears gems and chants mantras for individual planets, is it perhaps

more beneficial to go directly to sing the glories of the avatar of the

concerned planet?

I may be mistaken but I am currently thinking that especially to hear from a

pure devotee of the lord (my guru Srila Prabhupada) chanting Dasavatara Stotra

is the most effective way for at least me to remediate the planets as well as

please the Lord.

For interesting list members: http://gauranga.org/prabhupada.htm : Srila

Prabhupada chants 'Sri Dasavatara Stotra'

My best wishes

Remedial Devatas (Lords) to be worshipped for the deficiencies or impediments

with the nine Planets:

The following is a list of personalities who either rule the various planets and

thus have dominion over them, or come from or appeared in that dynasty, and so

have influence over that planet. Therefore it is advised to offer

homage/worship/puja/service to that presiding personality to gain His favour to

alleviate malefic situations being caused by the planetary influence. Jupiter

Dynasty: The Dwarf incarnation of the Lord Vamandeva, was from the Jupiter

dynasty. He is to be considered Jeevamsa and Parmatmansa combined incarnation .

Ketu Dynasty: The Fish incarnation of the Lord Matsya was from Ketu dynasty. He

too was Jeevamsa and Parmatmamsa combined incarnation . Mars Dynasty: The

Narasimha, half man half lion incarnation of the Lord was from the Mars

dynasty. He was fully Parmatmamsa incarnation . Mercury Dynasty: Lord Buddha

the combined incarnation was from the Mercurean dynasty. He was Jeevamsa and

Paramatmamsa. The Moon Dynasty: Lord Krishna, the in Supreme Personality of God

was from the Moon dynasty. He was fully Parmatmamsa incarnation - the Avatari.

Rahu Dynasty: The wild Boar, the incarnation of God Varaha was from the Rahu

dynasty. He was fully Parmatmamsa incarnation . Saturn Dynasty: The Tortoise,

the incarnation of God Kurma was from the Saturn dynasty. He was Jeevamsa and

Parmatmamsa combined incarnation . Sun Dynasty: Lord Rama, the incarnation of

Lord was from Solar dynasty. He was fully Parmatmamsa incarnation . Venusian

Dynasty: Sage Bhargava (Jamadagni the father of Parasuram), the plenary

incarnation of God was from Venusian dynasty. (The Bhargava dynasty comes down

from Bhrgumuni) He was Jeevamsa and Parmatmamsa combined incarnation . Devi

Deities are: Lakshmi. (Mohini, Saraswati)

SARVAM GYANANANDAMAYAM JAGAT

AUM GURUBYO NAMAH

Dear Sanjay,

You have stated that the graha delights when it is given an opportunity to

remember its exalted state/Avatar. Excellent. The delight of the graha is

called as the 'anugraha'/blessing. Similarly if the individual/AK is asked to

trace its source(12th) with the remainder that he/she belongs to the

"Parampara" of the lord it brings out the excellence in him/her.

Laya/involvement is the secret of performance. Excellence is the yardstick of

performance - "yogah karmasu kowshalam". The moment the AK realises that true

sambanda/gyana sambandha on account of the blessings of the BK and the deity

lording the parampara(12th to karakamsa) the dhi is silenced in samadhi and in

that state the inner dictates become audible. The life of the sadhak becomes

more like a mudra in nritya resulting out of rhythm/nada heard within.( i

remember the dancing posture of Shri Ramakrishna paramahamsa).

AUM SHANTHI SHANTHI SHANTIHI.

Happily/happy to be yours,

psramanrayanan

JAYA JAGANNATHA!

Dear Sanjayji,

Namaste.

I would be interested to know what do you mean by dynasty here?

Lord Vamamadeva was the son of Diti and Kashyapa Muni, and Brihaspati was the

son of Maharsi Angira. Angira was Brahma's mental son, and Kashyapa was the son

of Marici, who is the controlling deity of the Maruts, the wind-gods. He is also

the mental son of Brahma, so Vamana and Brihaspati came in different dynasties

(first is Angira-gotra, the second is Marici-gotra).

There is noi information given in the Srimad Bhagavatam about the appearance of

Matsya, as He was found by king Satyavrata, the son ot Vivasvan (Sun-god). So

He was found in the waterof the river Krtamala, which is akin to Ketu being in

Moolatrikona in Pisces, a watery sign. But on the other hand, Ketu is supposed

to be the trunk of the demon Rahu, who was the son of Vipracitti, and according

to SB 6.6.37. has one hundred younger brothers, who were called Ketus.

Vipracitti was the son of Kashyapa and Danu.

Narasimha was born out of a pillar in Indra's palace, so it is difficult to

assure in which dynasty He appeared. Mars is said to be the son of Sarva and

Vikesi, who is the Earth. Also Kartikkeya is linked to Mars, he was the son of

Lord Siva.

Mercury is said to be the son of Tara and Chandra, so he is from the Moon,

dsynasty, but considered to be from Brihaspati's dinasty, ans Tara is

Brihaspati's wife. Lord Buddha was bor as the son of Anjana, no idea about

dinasty.

The Moon, Chandra was the son of Atri muni and Anasuya. Lord Krishna indeed

appeared in Soma-vamsa, ro Moon-dinasty.

Rahu's origins we have discussed. Lord Varahadeva was born out of Lord Brahma's nostril.

Saturn was the son of Surya and Chaya, so technically he is in Surya-vamsa.

Kurmadeva's birth is not described. He just appeared in the water.

Surya or Vivasvan was born as the son of Kashyapa and Diti. Lord Rama indeed

appeared in Surya-vamsa.
