Guest guest Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 ??? ??? ?????? Dear Swee, Freedom and John, Namaskar MahaBrhaspati does not refer to the 'generic' Brhaspati mantra that we all know and are initiated into, but to that form of Brhaspati which goes to war. Hence, the need for it during Jupiters transit into a martian sign - Scorpio. There is a whole sukta devoted to this form of Brhaspati made by Saunuka. Many of the slokas are in Jagati and Tristhup chandah of which the latter is especially used for war. I can't remember which mandala its in, but its the 13th sukta of the same and begins with the well known Ganesha Gayatri/Jagati: ganaanam tva....

Guest guest Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 हरे राम कृषà¥à¤£à¥¥ Dear Hari, Namaskar Rakshohanan Gotrabidhamsvarvidam... To protect us and give us shelter. This is specifically when he wants to ensure the continuance of the Parampara. The second and third slokas of this sukta show this clearly.
