Guest guest Posted July 26, 2004 Report Share Posted July 26, 2004 Dear Gurus & friends, Pranaam. Please ignore if you've already read this on my previous mail. I've heard of an event on VarahaMihira's life, that he did a kind of yagna/homam (religious rite with oblations to fire), wherein he sat on 12 different branches of a tree for 1 month each, thus noting/meditating upon the details of apparent Sun's motion in the 12 zodiacs. And, at the end of 12th month, he dropped himself in the "havan kunda" as the final offering? Is this story some kind of legend OR is it true? Do you happen to have any more information on this event? Are there any books on Life of Varahamihira or any weblinks? The admiration toward this Giant tree has turned into a burning desire, propelling me to look for some crunchy information. My Mercury must be in full swing, just hovering around Guru, and wondering (or is it wandering:)) what all this beautiful/glorious energy is all about... Jai Sri Ram Thanks, Shailesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
