Longevity

[Guest guest]

om gurave namah

 

The following are some questions I hope to

have answers for:

1. Narasimha Rao's book: p. 157, and Sanjay

Rath's Upadesa Sutras book, p. 159.

Question about Maheswara determination -

Under (2) on p. 157 of Mr. Rao's book,

What if Ra joins 8th (house) from him, BUT

the 6th Lord is also Lord of AK's placement,

as Mars in Sco or Ve in Tau? What is Mahewsara

in this case?

2. Pl elucidate on Brahma and Maheswara use

for longevity.

3. Parasara's Formula: If Mars and Ke,

or Sat and Ra are in the same sign, then what are

the steps to find the stronger graha for this

formula?

4. For consideration of Sa's limiting effect

on longevity, does Jp asp or cj cancel or

neutralize it?

Also, in the method of 3 pairs, what if Sa

asps or maybe cj's only 1 of the 5 other components?

And, what is its effect on Ra if in same or different

sign were Ra to be one of the 6 elements in the 3

pairs?

5.What about mean vs true nodes -- for longevity

and other uses. At the moment of birth is not a

node either going forward(once every couple days)

or retrograde, and thus not really ever at an

average or mean? Therefore, the true node placement

is necessariy the correct one to use for a particular

time?

Thank You,

Will

6. In addition to the 4 methods given in Sanjay

Rath's Upadesa Sutras, what are the other methods

he mentions in the tape set on Longevity and Death

at Kerala in the Fall of 2002
