Guest guest Posted December 28, 2004 Report Share Posted December 28, 2004 ||| Hare Rama Krishna ||| Dear Kannan Ji and list members, Namaskaar. Attempted answers to your questions below… ============== Dear Nitinji, Thanks for the reply. Even before your suggestion, I have already gone through the article and after that still I have confusion, that is why I have posted the query. Please clear the following doubts. 1. For Ishta Devata purpose only Avataras of Vishnu are considered? [Via NK] Per the article : 3.2.1 Paraà padaà of Viñëu Every part of this creation is a Guru, a teacher and the soul is constantly learning new lessons and refining the knowledge of older lessons in its constant interaction with the other souls or the super soul. The Åk veda teaches that the penultimate objective of every jévätma (living being – having a soul) is the paraà padaà of Viñëu. The içöa devatä will finally be a Viñëu avatära although various deities could be guiding the native during this search for the ultimate truth depending on the influences in the twelfth (mokña) and ninth house (dharma) from kärakamsa. Also consider: BPHS, Chapter 1 [English Translation below] 20. Lord Vishnu, coupled with Śrī Shakti, rules over the three worlds. Coupled with Bhoo Shakti, He is Brahma causing the Universe. Coupled with Neel Shakti, He is Shiva, destroying the Universe. I am still trying to further grasp the principles of creation as outlined in the first chapter of this great Vedic text. 2. For Palana Devata purpose other dieties can be considered? [Via NK] Such as…? Further down the article, you may find your answer… http://www..org/learn/ck.htm#_Toc25590633 3. What if there is another planet with the house lord. [Via NK] Consider both planets. Ultimately, it should be the Moon, leading to the works of the Ishta. Use the same rules for the Paalan Dev. 4. In the referred case Moon and Venus both female planets are placed in a female sign of Virgo so can we consider the Ishta Devata a Female Goddess? [Via NK] Such as…? Regards, Kannan Hope some of this helps. May the Gurus continue to guide you, and correct me where needed. Best wishes and warm regards, Nitin. || Namah Shivaaya || ============ vedic astrology, "Nitin" <astronitin> wrote: > > ||| Hare Rama Krishna ||| > > Dear Kannan and list members, Namaskaar. > > For the benefit of those interested in the Ishta Dev / Dharma Dev and > some others as described, the following link has served me as > insightful, and as a good reference. > > > http://www..org/learn/ck.htm#_Toc25590630 > > Best wishes, > Nitin. > > || Namah Shivaaya || > > ================ > Respected Guru's, > > Please help me in finding the Ishta Devata for one of my friends. > > In Navamsa, 12th from Karakamsa is Cancer (empty) > Lord Moon is in Virgo Navamsa with Venus. > > Which Goddess should I advise as his Ishta Devata, Durga or Lakshmi? > > Thanks > Kannan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
