Dear Vishnu,

 

Thats an excellent suggestion and I also hope that the Gurus/learned

members would share this input on (garb)adhana lagna which is

supposed to be the most accurate of all the three lagnas.

 

Obviously, I wont ask you how you got the adhana lagna for yourself

(smile) but I am rather curious to know your definition for the same

because the time of conjugal union and the time of fertilization of

the ovum by the spermatozoa can be different, differing in margin by

as much as 7 days.

 

Another suggestion: many members use web access; so can you please

repost the two jhd charts in text format directly inside the mail?

 

regards

Hari

Dear Mr.Hari,

 

Good question!

 

Prof.Sastry in his book has defined Adhana as the time

of coitus/union and i have also seen the same

definition by Sri Iranganti Rangacharya(Jaimini

Sutramritam). I have simply followed them(winks!)

 

I have pasted the adhana chart followed by mine below

for the convenience of others.

 

thanks

Vishnu

Dear Vishnu,

 

Thanks for your reply. If I have understood it correctly, you are

giving the adhana lagna and would like to know when the child would

be born, is it not? And you are giving your chart for cross-

reference (Did you get married during Ra-Ve?).

 

Now, by a strange coincidence, I was reading the first chapter of

Satyacharya's principles and therein, there are three definitions

given for the birth lagna. It is clearly mentioned that the first

definition (ie garbadhana lagna) should be taken as the correct

birth lagna but in the absence of correct information, the time when

the child is actually delivered (touching the earth) can be taken as

the birth lagna. Even here there is a bit of controversy (umbilical

cord, first breath or cry etc).

 

But Satyacharya clearly mentions that the garbadhana lagna should be

given preference over the other types of birth lagna! So what is the

need for predicting child birth, when the time of birth is known?!!

If we take the time of birth to be the time when the atman (soul)

enters into the lady's womb (usually at the time of conjugal union?

and usually via the father?), then you already have the chart for

the child!

 

After a brief scan at the chart you have provided for the adhana

lagna, I am a bit concerned at the presence of Gullika in the first

house and Rahu & Mandi in the 2nd house respectively. Let us see

what Shri Ramadas has to say about this as he is an expert in these

areas.

 

Lets hope that the Gurus are able to educate us on this fascinating

case study.

 

regards

Hari

Om Gurave namah

Dear hari

The words Nisheka and adhana have been used loosely in the context mentioned.

Nisheka is the time of union and adhana is the time of fertilisation of the

ovum or the start of pregnancy.

As you said, the times can be different and to this I fully agree as it is an

established scientific fact. By using Nisheka for adhana calculations, the late

Santanam has perhaps, overlooked this vital fact.

Best wishes

Dear Hari,

 

No, I got married in Ra-Me(July 1, 1999). If one were

to go by Satyacharya's principles.....this world of

astrology would have filled with adhana charts rather

than janma charts!

om sarvamohinyai vidmahe viçvajananiyai dhémahi

tannaù çakti pracodayät|

Dear Vishnu,

Finally Hari has put on my head.( Smile ).Now let me take your chart

first.I have rectified your birth time as 19 : 42 : 04 Hrs.Now Lagna

is Vrischika and 5th lord is Guru who is Vakra in 2nd house.So Guru

can give the results of 2nd as well as 1st house.Guru is in the

nakshatra of poorvashada nakshatra ruled by Shukra who has been

aspected by Guru itself and Kuja is also with Shukra.Shukra

indicates female child.Also both Shukra and Kuja are in Aridra ruld

by Rahu who is in Makara which indicates also a female.But as Rahu

is a node,he may create trouble in progenic issues.Your natural Atma

Karaka Surya is exalted in Mesha along with Budha but is 6th from

Lagna and 5th from Guru.In D-7 chart, Lagna is Simha and 5th is

occupied by Chandra indicating a female child as first issue.At

present rahu Dasa- Shukra's Antara running and both are in

Shashtashtaka to each other.but from Guru ® ,Shukra is in 7th.So

Guru will try to help you.The time of copulation was during Surya's

Pratyantara and Surya is in 5th from Guru ® and is in 11th from

Shukra the Antara Lord.So by looking into these,I can tell you that

there is a possibility of a female child .But I have a doubt as both

Guru ® and its nakshatra dispositor Shukra both are in Dwiswabhava

Rasi,there may be possibilty of twin children.

Now let me come to Adhana Lagna.Adhana Lagna is Mesha and 4th is

occupied by exalted Guru.5th is again occupied by Chandra.agna lord

Kuja is in 11th but in a enemical house.5th lord Surya is in 3rd but

afflicted by Shani and Shukra who are his enemies.Surya is also in

the Nakshatra of Aridra ruled by Rahu and and Rahu is in 2nd house

exalted.Now let me come to Navamsha chart.Surya is in Meena Rasi

which is going to be exalted,Chandra is in his own house,Kuja is

exalted,Shukra is in Vrischika Navamsha.Now eventhough Kuja is

exalted Shani is also there.Now in Brihat Jataka of Varaha Mihira,he

says Garbhadana is done by Surya,Chandra,Kuja and Shukra.He also

says during Garbhadana time,if these planets are in Swa navamsha

ie.,in their own house ( Not Vargothama ),then there will be

garbhadana.In your case, Surya is going to be exalted and so it is

powerful,Chandra in his own Navamsha,Kuja is exalted but Shukra is

in Vrischika navamsha .So in this case actually Kuja is afflicted by

Shani ,so 6th month will be critical for the pregnancy.Worshipping

of Godess Durga will help in reducing the evil effects.Also the

afflicting planet is Shani,chanting of Sri Vishnu Sahasra naama

Stotra daily will be of great help.

I also Pray Lord Krishna and Mother Bhuvaneshwari to Bless you with

a child.

With Sri Bhuvaneshwari Naama Smarana,

Ramadas Rao.

Dear Sanjay Rath,

 

Hare Rama Krsna!

 

How then can we calculate the fortunes of the pregnancy if we have to

calculate from time of fertilisation which is in no way possible to

determine by ordinary means? One cannot put a clock timing on

fertilisation, however to time the coitus is possible. It doesn't make

sense to me, to accept adhana lagna as time of fertilisation, and

calculate the pregnancy from there, unless you give us a method to

determine astrologically at what time fertilisation will take place given

the timing of coitus. See the logic: if coitus doesn't take place, then

there will be no chance of a pregnancy, thus coitus is the direct cause of

pregnancy and the time of coitus is taken for determining the fortunes of

pregnancy, and to determine the possible birth time. How else will we see

adhana lagna?

It looks like a similar controversial point like what is actually the time

of birth. May Jupiter enlighten us.

Dear Shri Chandrasekhar,

 

My apologies for the mistake; I had mixed up with time for ovulation

and time of release into fallopian tubes which can be upto 7 days. I

did an internet search and found that sperm can survive for upto 6

hours (depending on rate of dehydration) outside the human body and

upto 48 hours inside the human body.

 

Dear Shri Dhira Krsna,

 

Interesting posts by you on this topic. Thanks. In Satya Jataka,

three reference times are mentioned for calculating the birth lagna.

Now my question is why did the sages mention these times? If they

were not important, they would not have bothered to dictate it in

the best interests of brevity. Moreover Satyacharya says that "in

the absence of information concerning the first two times, the third

time may be taken for calculating the birth lagna". That means, in

terms of accuracy, there is an order and if the adhana lagna is

known, what is the need to predict childbirth? That is, the child is

already born! As Sanjay and Chandrasekhar have pointed out, there is

a need for clarifying the semantics of nisheka and adhana.

 

I dont buy your logic that there has to be conception following

after conjugal union. If that were the case, we would be assured of

a 100% strike rate each time we have coitus! When does the atman

(soul) reincarnate? Does the atman enter the womb at the time of

conjugal union or at the time of fertilization of the egg? These are

the questions to be resolved.

 

regards

Hari

Dear Hari,

 

If I may extend you logic, does every successful

fertilisation lead to child birth? Obviously, not.

This topic can get murkier as you dig deep into it, no

wonder, its hardly discussed.

 

Just as death is end of life........birth is the end

of adhana. I would like to believe that adhana chart

is used for predicting the course of pregnancy until

birth.

 

You are right when you say not every conjugal union

lead to fertilisation, but if you refer to Sri

Ramadasa Rao's post where he has quoted the Brihat

Jataka....there must also be conditions in the adhana

chart to develop into a full pregnancy just as there

must be conditions in a birth chart for sustenance.

 

warm regards,

 

Vishnu

Dear Krsna Dasa & Ramadasa Rao,

Yes, although the time could be off by 5 minutes

either way!

 

There are no indications of twins yet, although they

run through our family.

 

The ultrasound revealed some strange growth(a band of

tissue) which the doctors have not been able to

identify(other than the baby).

 

Chaturthi crossed my mind but with Simha

Lagna(Leo).......i am expecting Simha

Lagna(Leo).......with Moon in Leo as well.....i.e,

Chaturdasi/April 1st.

 

Let us see how things evolve.

Here Varaha Mihiracharya tells about the lordship of the planets for 9 months of pregnancy.

In the 1st month,there is only some formation of Pinda or irregular shape is

ruled by Shukra,2nd month,it becomes hard and is controlled by Kuja,in the 3rd

month,body parts will grow and this is lorded by Guru,the 4th month ,bones will

grom and is lorded by Surya.In the 5th month,skin will form and this is lorded

by Chandra,the 6th month,hairs and other body parts will form and movement

inside Garbha Kosha or Uterus will start and this is controlled by SHANI,in the

7th month, the organs connected to Jnaana or knowledge ie., central nervous

system inside brain will grow and this is lorded by Budha,in the 8th,it is

controlled by garbha Lagnadhipathy,9th month is controlled by Chandra and

finally the

10th month or delivery period is controlled by Surya.Here again the reason for

the lordships for 8th,9th and 10th months are given in Lagna Chandrika and as

per that during 8th month,the child inside mother's Garbha Kosha will get the

food from mother through a channel or Naala.Also there will be blood

circulation between mother and child through this Naala or channel and for this

Garbha Lagnadhipaty is responsible and it says it ill be difficult to find out

this lordship unless we know the Garbhadhana timing.In the 9th month,mother

gets sensation of delivery and this is lorded by Chandra and finally in the

10th month ie., 9 days after completion of 9th month delivery takes place and

this is lorded by Surya.

I hope this helps you.

Dear Hari,

 

You said

When does the atman (soul) reincarnate? Does the atman enter the womb at

the time of conjugal union or at the time of fertilization of the egg?

 

However what bothers me is more basic and fundamental to this.

We know that sperm lives and dies, ovum lives and dies. If that's true,

probably they have an Atma when they are living. Was their two Atma in

them or one! If we apply logic, we say two. What happens when they

unite? One of the atma goes where? When does the atma of the child comes

to the fertilised egg? Gurudev says that the atma (Sun) is contributed

by father (Sun - through sperm), whereas the body (Moon) is contributed

by Mother (Moon- through Egg). If this is so then only sperm contains

Atma and Egg doesnot. If egg does not contain atma, it should be dead!

Hmm... we are stuck...

 

But, bottomline is that how do we say what contains atma and what

doesnot!

 

Best Wishes

Sarajit

Gurudev says that the atma (Sun) is contributedby father (Sun - through sperm),

whereas the body (Moon) is contributedby Mother (Moon- through Egg). If this is

so then only sperm containsAtma and Egg doesnot. If egg does not contain atma,

it should be dead!Hmm... we are stuck...

But, bottomline is that how do we say what contains atma and whatdoesnot! Best

apologies for the mistake; I had mixed up with time for ovulation and time of

Satya Jataka, three reference times are mentioned for calculating the birth

If they were not important, they would not have bothered to dictate it in the

best interests of brevity. Moreover Satyacharya says that "in the absence of

information concerning the first two times, the third time may be taken for

calculating the birth lagna". That means, in terms of accuracy, there is an

order and if the adhana lagna is known, what is the need to predict childbirth?

That is, the child is already born! As Sanjay and Chandrasekhar have pointed

out, there is a need for clarifying the semantics of nisheka and adhana.I dont

buy your logic that there has to be conception following after conjugal union.

If that were the case, we would be assured of a 100% strike rate each time we

have coitus! When does the atman (soul) reincarnate? Does the atman enter the

womb at the time of conjugal union or at the time of fertilization of the egg?

These are the questions to be resolved.

O BHAGAVATE VASUDEVAYA

dEAR Sarjaitji,

I think the ovum is the kshetrs and the sperm is the atma. I am very

interested in the adhan techniques. Some time back Sanjayji told me that you

have some adhan notes of some delhi class. Can you please share those notes

with me.

As per the standard texts the beeja is the sperm i.e.sun and the soil is the ova.

Dear Hari,

 

Hari Om Tat Sat

 

>In Satya Jataka, three reference times are mentioned for calculating the

>birth lagna. Now my question is why did the sages mention these times?

 

I haven't read this book. Can you clarify more on which three reference

times are mentioned there? Is adhana lagna the first? Indeed, if that one

is known then a correct birth lagna can be predicted, and interpretations

on the life of the newborn (even if not yet born...) can be made from

there.

 

> As Sanjay and Chandrasekhar have pointed out, there is

>a need for clarifying the semantics of nisheka and adhana.

 

Sure, a valid point.

 

>I dont buy your logic that there has to be conception following

>after conjugal union. If that were the case, we would be assured of

>a 100% strike rate each time we have coitus!

 

That's not what I have said. What I meant is that if A (coitus) does not

take place, then C (pregnancy) is not possible, unless we have a case of

the Holy Ghost. Of course, A is not enough to make C happen, like you say.

At the same time, B (the right time - dasha) is necessary. So that's my

logic: A + B = C, and if either A or B is absent, then pregnancy does not

occur. Also, B is not able to cause C alone, and thus A is the direct

cause of pregnancy.

 

>When does the atman (soul) reincarnate? Does the atman enter the womb at

>the time of conjugal union or at the time of fertilization of the egg?

>These are the questions to be resolved.

 

The atma is already present in the sperm before the coitus takes place,

and starts developing his/her new body after conception - fertilisation of

the ovum. That's the statement of the Vedic sastra (Bhagavata Purana

e.a.). Without soul, life is not possible, and ultimately, it is the soul

which starts the new body with the help of Paramatma, Supersoul. So

basically, the soul is already present before coitus, but yes, that may be

another controversial point, since the actual start of development of the

new body is with fertilisation. But how to time that....? It is not

visible externally.

 

I guess great Rishis will have to enlighten us.

Dear Sarajit,

>Atma and Egg doesnot. If egg does not contain atma, it should be dead!

 

Everything animate or inanimate contains soul, however most of these are

not allotted to the human body, and thus remain in the life-form of sperm

or egg. Every cell of our body has a soul inside, yet their consciousness

is so covered that they hardly realize they're living, but they're there.

As such there are billions and billions of atma's around us all the time.

Dear Sarajit and Hari and list mebers,

 

I can answer this question according to the understanding I have

gained from Srila Prabhupada's books.

 

Every living thing has a soul. So you have a soul as does an animal,

fish, tree, plant, insect , bacteria etc.

 

Even each cell in your body has a sepaerate soul! Each cell has a

begining, middle and end.

 

So the millions of sperm continually produced by a man each have a

soul. And the many ovums within a woman each have a soul.

 

Now the souls (covered by the subtle body) fall into this planet

undetected through the rain and into the ground. And therefore

eventually into the foodstuff we eat. And eventually enter our

sperm/ovum.

 

Only one lucky soul (ie within the sperm) eventually gains control of

the human body. So when the sperm and ovum unite the soul that was

within the sperm becomes the predominant one. And as the whole embryo

develops each new cell that is created a seperate soul enters. But

the souls within the cell are not predominating over the whole

organism. Only one soul has this predominant control.

 

So in this way you can understand this fundamental point.

 

Everyone who is reading this must realise that we were the lucky

sperms!

 

But also luck is not involved it is Karma. And we probably have been

unlucky sperms, bacteria, plants, pigs etc in previous lives.

 

So lets not misuse this human birth!

 

Best wishes

 

Kasim

[vedic astrology] Re: Adhana Lagna and Prediction of child

birth.

 

Dear Sarajit and Hari and list mebers,

 

I can answer this question according to the understanding I have

gained from Srila Prabhupada's books.

 

Every living thing has a soul. So you have a soul as does an animal,

fish, tree, plant, insect , bacteria etc.

 

[[sarajit]] What about non living things. What is living and what is

not? Is Virus living? Scientists say that Virus becomes non-living

outside a living body (lets say human or animals) and becomes living

when inside a body. The first living organisms which scientists say

coacervates hardly lived and were a mere collection of compounds called

the amino acids. If we say that each cells contain a soul, can a soul be

there within, in the elements, in the atoms, in the electrons and even

smaller. Can there be soul when we go bigger, in a planet, in the solar

system, in a galaxy, in a universe. This makes us ponder more and more.

Who knows like we have cells in the body which also contains souls, we

are also like cells of some bigger body and we have a soul. Probably the

bigger body has a higher consciousness and predominance than what we do

just like our cells in our body. So my questions be "is there soul in so

called non-living things"

 

Even each cell in your body has a sepaerate soul! Each cell has a

begining, middle and end.

 

[[sarajit]] This is also true for so called non living things. You might

be knowing that stars also take birth and die. Do they have souls.

 

So the millions of sperm continually produced by a man each have a

soul. And the many ovums within a woman each have a soul.

 

[[sarajit]] I agree. But try answering the above questions.

 

 

Now the souls (covered by the subtle body) fall into this planet

undetected through the rain and into the ground. And therefore

eventually into the foodstuff we eat. And eventually enter our

sperm/ovum.

[[sarajit]] I think this is covered in one of the Upanishads. But the

fundamental question remains. What contains soul and what not?

 

Only one lucky soul (ie within the sperm) eventually gains control of

the human body. So when the sperm and ovum unite the soul that was

within the sperm becomes the predominant one. And as the whole embryo

develops each new cell that is created a seperate soul enters. But

the souls within the cell are not predominating over the whole

organism. Only one soul has this predominant control.

 

So in this way you can understand this fundamental point.

[[sarajit]] Try answering the others :-)

 

Everyone who is reading this must realise that we were the lucky

sperms!

 

But also luck is not involved it is Karma. And we probably have been

unlucky sperms, bacteria, plants, pigs etc in previous lives.

 

So lets not misuse this human birth!

Dear Sarajit prabhu,

 

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Please accept my humble obeisances.

 

Thank you for your nice questions.

Actually by searching and pondering in this way you are actually

using real intelligence.

 

Your main query is whether there is a soul in apparently non-living

things such as stars/mountains/water/atoms etc.

 

Actually its first important to understand that a soul is a spirit

part and parcel of the supreme lord. It is one of the lords energies.

The whole material manifestation is also simply another one of the

energies of God. So even all the material energy you can think of

finds its source from the Supreme Lord. What to speak of the

spiritual kingdom of God and the jivas/souls. So actually nothing

exists that does not find its source in God.

 

Let me quote from Bhagvad Gita Chapter 8 Text 9:

 

(http://www.asitis.com/8/9.html)

 

TRANSLATION

 

One should meditate upon the Supreme Person as the one who knows

everything, as He who is the oldest, who is the controller, who is

smaller than the smallest, who is the maintainer of everything, who

is beyond all material conception, who is inconceivable, and who is

always a person. He is luminous like the sun and, being

transcendental, is beyond this material nature.

 

PURPORT (By Srila Prabhupada)

 

The process of thinking of the Supreme is mentioned in this verse.

The foremost point is that He is not impersonal or void. One cannot

meditate on something impersonal or void. That is very difficult. The

process of thinking of Krsna, however, is very easy and is factually

stated herein. First of all, He is purusa, spiritual, Rama and Krsna,

and is described herein as kavim; that is, He knows past, present and

future and therefore knows everything. He is the oldest personality

because He is the origin of everything; everything is born out of

Him. He is also the supreme controller of the universe, maintainer

and instructor of humanity. He is smaller than the smallest. The

living entity (jiva/soul) is one ten-thousandth part of the tip of a

hair, but the Lord is so inconceivably small that He enters into the

heart of this particle. Therefore He is called smaller than the

smallest. As the Supreme, He can enter into the atom and into the

heart of the smallest and control him as the Supersoul. Although so

small, He is still all-pervading and is maintaining everything. By

Him all these planetary systems are sustained. We often wonder how

these big planets are floating in the air. It is stated here that the

Supreme Lord, by His inconceivable energy, is sustaining all these

big planets and systems of galaxies. The word acintya (inconceivable)

is very significant in this connection. God's energy is beyond our

conception, beyond our thinking jurisdiction, and is therefore called

inconceivable (acintya). Who can argue this point? He pervades this

material world and yet is beyond it. We cannot even comprehend this

material world, which is insignificant compared to the spiritual

world--so how can we comprehend what is beyond? Acintya means that

which is beyond this material world, that which our argument, logic

and philosophical speculation cannot touch, that which is

inconceivable. Therefore intelligent persons, avoiding useless

argument and speculation, should accept what is stated in scriptures

like the Vedas, Gita, and Srimad-Bhagavatam and follow the principles

they set down. This will lead one to understanding.

 

So in conclusion to your funadamental questions behind any matter

there is spirit. Either jiva or super soul.

 

According to modern science the atoms that make up a human being are

never created or destroyed whether he is dead or alive. They are

transformed. So within each atom will be the super soul. However in a

living human being there is the presence of the jiva as well as the

all pervading super soul. This jiva is the difference between a

dead/unconscious body and an alive/conscious body.

 

Let me know if you would like me to explain it better...

If you make a serious tsudy of Bhagvad Gita As It Is and Srimad

Bhagvatam everything will be clear...

 

 

Best wishes

 

Kasim

 

! Hare Krishna !

Dear Kasim, Namaste

 

Thank you very much for the passage from Bhagavat Gita. This does

explain what I think is logical as everything arises from the supreme

consciousness.

 

Now I shall put a very short question. If you have time please try

answering this.

 

We have soul, our cells have soul, animals have soul atoms have soul and

a universe also has a soul. We say "I" am so and so, animals say "I" am

so and so, does our cell say I am so and so; does an atom say that "I"

am so and so; does a galaxy say that "I" am so and so. At what stage

does "I" come into picture? Is there one soul in everything or are there

multiple souls in those things?

birth.

 

Dear Sarajit prabhu,

 

All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Please accept my humble obeisances.

 

Thank you for your nice questions.

Actually by searching and pondering in this way you are actually

using real intelligence.

 

Your main query is whether there is a soul in apparently non-living

things such as stars/mountains/water/atoms etc.

 

Actually its first important to understand that a soul is a spirit

part and parcel of the supreme lord. It is one of the lords energies.

The whole material manifestation is also simply another one of the

energies of God. So even all the material energy you can think of

finds its source from the Supreme Lord. What to speak of the

spiritual kingdom of God and the jivas/souls. So actually nothing

exists that does not find its source in God.

 

Let me quote from Bhagvad Gita Chapter 8 Text 9:

 

(http://www.asitis.com/8/9.html)

 

TRANSLATION

 

One should meditate upon the Supreme Person as the one who knows

everything, as He who is the oldest, who is the controller, who is

smaller than the smallest, who is the maintainer of everything, who

is beyond all material conception, who is inconceivable, and who is

always a person. He is luminous like the sun and, being

transcendental, is beyond this material nature.

 

PURPORT (By Srila Prabhupada)

 

The process of thinking of the Supreme is mentioned in this verse.

The foremost point is that He is not impersonal or void. One cannot

meditate on something impersonal or void. That is very difficult. The

process of thinking of Krsna, however, is very easy and is factually

stated herein. First of all, He is purusa, spiritual, Rama and Krsna,

and is described herein as kavim; that is, He knows past, present and

future and therefore knows everything. He is the oldest personality

because He is the origin of everything; everything is born out of

Him. He is also the supreme controller of the universe, maintainer

and instructor of humanity. He is smaller than the smallest. The

living entity (jiva/soul) is one ten-thousandth part of the tip of a

hair, but the Lord is so inconceivably small that He enters into the

heart of this particle. Therefore He is called smaller than the

smallest. As the Supreme, He can enter into the atom and into the

heart of the smallest and control him as the Supersoul. Although so

small, He is still all-pervading and is maintaining everything. By

Him all these planetary systems are sustained. We often wonder how

these big planets are floating in the air. It is stated here that the

Supreme Lord, by His inconceivable energy, is sustaining all these

big planets and systems of galaxies. The word acintya (inconceivable)

is very significant in this connection. God's energy is beyond our

conception, beyond our thinking jurisdiction, and is therefore called

inconceivable (acintya). Who can argue this point? He pervades this

material world and yet is beyond it. We cannot even comprehend this

material world, which is insignificant compared to the spiritual

world--so how can we comprehend what is beyond? Acintya means that

which is beyond this material world, that which our argument, logic

and philosophical speculation cannot touch, that which is

inconceivable. Therefore intelligent persons, avoiding useless

argument and speculation, should accept what is stated in scriptures

like the Vedas, Gita, and Srimad-Bhagavatam and follow the principles

they set down. This will lead one to understanding.

 

So in conclusion to your funadamental questions behind any matter

there is spirit. Either jiva or super soul.

 

According to modern science the atoms that make up a human being are

never created or destroyed whether he is dead or alive. They are

transformed. So within each atom will be the super soul. However in a

living human being there is the presence of the jiva as well as the

all pervading super soul. This jiva is the difference between a

dead/unconscious body and an alive/conscious body.

 

Let me know if you would like me to explain it better...

If you make a serious tsudy of Bhagvad Gita As It Is and Srimad

Bhagvatam everything will be clear...

 

 

Best wishes

 

Kasim

 

! Hare Krishna !

Dear Sarajit prabhu

All glories Srila Prabhupada

Please accept my humble obeisances

 

Thank you for your questions.

 

With a soul comes => consciousness. It is often said that

consciousness is the symptom of the soul. You are conscious and your

consciousness originates from the real you => soul/atma/jiva.

Similarly I am conscious and this originates from my soul. Similarly

for all the list members. Same with all the people in the world. 5

billion. I cant get my head over that sometimes => 5 billion people

with their own consciousness and therfore own soul.

 

But why stop at humans? There are aninamls, birds, aquatics, plants,

microbial forms. According to the Vedic literature there 8,400,000

species of life in this Universe. Of which modern day humans are only

one variety. Humans (due to fortune) have more developed

consciousness than animals, birds trees etc. But still the trees DO

have limited consciousness due to the presence of the soul. They are

simply souls going through a tougher time of imprisonment. (due to

Karma) There are also living beings with more higher developed

consciousness namely the demigods and the denizens of the higher

planetary systems. Our present cosnciousness is limited to 3 or 4

dimensions. However the higher beings can access further dimensions.

 

Anyway regardless of how developed our consciousness is, if we are

not Krishna/God conscious which means if we cannot see God face to

face => In other words see God with our spiritual eyes (eyes of the

atma) then we are materially conditioned.

 

Please note that I'm not saying plants etc are inferior. I myself was

most probably a plant. So we should not artifically lament for the

plants etc only. (See Bhagvad Gita Chapter 2 text 11). But rather

for everyone who is not God conscious. Somehow encourage others to

engage in God consciousness but in the end it really is upto them.

 

TRANSLATION Chapter 2 text 11

The Blessed Lord said: While speaking learned words, you are mourning

for what is not worthy of grief. Those who are wise lament neither

for the living nor the dead.

 

PURPORT (By Srila Prabhupada)

The Lord at once took the position of the teacher and chastised the

student, calling him, indirectly, a fool. The Lord said, "You are

talking like a learned man, but you do not know that one who is

learned--one who knows what is body and what is soul--does not lament

for any stage of the body, neither in the living nor in the dead

condition." As it will be explained in later chapters, it will be

clear that knowledge means to know matter and spirit and the

controller of both. Arjuna argued that religious principles should be

given more importance than politics or sociology, but he did not know

that knowledge of matter, soul and the Supreme is even more important

than religious formularies. And, because he was lacking in that

knowledge, he should not have posed himself as a very learned man. As

he did not happen to be a very learned man, he was consequently

lamenting for something which was unworthy of lamentation. The body

is born and is destined to be vanquished today or tomorrow; therefore

the body is not as important as the soul. One who knows this is

actually learned, and for him there is no cause for lamentation,

regardless of the condition of the material body.

 

 

 

So in answer to your question => where ever there is a soul there

is "I." However the consciousness is not always so highly developed

as in the case of an atom.

 

Also I never "comes into the picture" as such. Rather you as a soul

have always eternally existed as an indivdual. Let me quote once more

for Bhagvad Gita Chapter 2 text 12:

 

TRANSLATION

Never was there a time when I did not exist, nor you, nor all these

kings; nor in the future shall any of us cease to be.

PURPORT (By Srila Prabhupada)

In the Vedas, in the Katha Upanisad as well as in the Svetasvatara

Upanisad, it is said that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the

maintainer of innumerable living entities, in terms of their

different situations according to individual work and reaction of

work. That Supreme Personality of Godhead is also, by His plenary

portions, alive in the heart of every living entity. Only saintly

persons who can see, within and without, the same Supreme Lord, can

actually attain to perfect and eternal peace.

nityo nityanam cetanas cetananam

eko bahunam yo vidadhati kaman

tam atma-stham ye 'nupasyanti dhiras

tesam santih sasvati netaresam

(Katha 2.2.13)

 

The same Vedic truth given to Arjuna is given to all persons in the

world who pose themselves as very learned but factually have but a

poor fund of knowledge. The Lord says clearly that He Himself,

Arjuna, and all the kings who are assembled on the battlefield, are

eternally individual beings and that the Lord is eternally the

maintainer of the individual living entities both in their

conditioned as well as in their liberated situations. The Supreme

Personality of Godhead is the supreme individual person, and Arjuna,

the Lord's eternal associate, and all the kings assembled there are

individual, eternal persons. It is not that they did not exist as

individuals in the past, and it is not that they will not remain

eternal persons. Their individuality existed in the past, and their

individuality will continue in the future without interruption.

Therefore, there is no cause for lamentation for anyone.

The Mayavadi theory that after liberation the individual soul,

separated by the covering of maya or illusion, will merge into the

impersonal Brahman and lose its individual existence is not supported

herein by Lord Krsna, the supreme authority. Nor is the theory that

we only think of individuality in the conditioned state supported

herein. Krsna clearly says herein that in the future also the

individuality of the Lord and others, as it is confirmed in the

Upanisads, will continue eternally. This statement of Krsna is

authoritative because Krsna cannot be subject to illusion. If

individuality is not a fact, then Krsna would not have stressed it so

much--even for the future. The Mayavadi may argue that the

individuality spoken of by Krsna is not spiritual, but material. Even

accepting the argument that the individuality is material, then how

can one distinguish Krsna's individuality? Krsna affirms His

individuality in the past and confirms His individuality in the

future also. He has confirmed His individuality in many ways, and

impersonal Brahman has been declared to be subordinate to Him. Krsna

has maintained spiritual individuality all along; if He is accepted

as an ordinary conditioned soul in individual consciousness, then His

Bhagavad-gita has no value as authoritative scripture. A common man

with all the four defects of human frailty is unable to teach that

which is worth hearing. The Gita is above such literature. No mundane

book compares with the Bhagavad-gita. When one accepts Krsna as an

ordinary man, the Gita loses all importance. The Mayavadi argues that

the plurality mentioned in this verse is conventional and that it

refers to the body. But previous to this verse such a bodily

conception is already condemned. After condemning the bodily

conception of the living entities, how was it possible for Krsna to

place a conventional proposition on the body again? Therefore,

individuality is maintained on spiritual grounds and is thus

confirmed by great acaryas like Sri Ramanuja and others. It is

clearly mentioned in many places in the Gita that this spiritual

individuality is understood by those who are devotees of the Lord.

Those who are envious of Krsna as the Supreme Personality of Godhead

have no bona fide access to the great literature. The nondevotee's

approach to the teachings of the Gita is something like bees licking

on a bottle of honey. One cannot have a taste of honey unless one

opens the bottle. Similarly, the mysticism of the Bhagavad-gita can

be understood only by devotees, and no one else can taste it, as it

is stated in the Fourth Chapter of the book. Nor can the Gita be

touched by persons who envy the very existence of the Lord.

Therefore, the Mayavadi explanation of the Gita is a most misleading

presentation of the whole truth. Lord Caitanya has forbidden us to

read commentations made by the Mayavadis and warns that one who takes

to such an understanding of the Mayavadi philosophy loses all power

to understand the real mystery of the Gita. If individuality refers

to the empirical universe, then there is no need of teaching by the

Lord. The plurality of the individual soul and of the Lord is an

eternal fact, and it is confirmed by the Vedas as above mentioned.
