Hi Guys,

 

I am posting this story below (sorry its a bit long) but I wanted to share it

with you because I think its a great story about Lord Saturn and how great he

is! I am personally going through sade sati and I am finding this useful to

read. For all those people going through saturn phase, Please read , in your own

time, if you get a chance and you will benefit from it. Thanks

 

Once the seven gods, the lords of the seven days of the week, were having

exchange of wit for their amusement. Rahu and Ketu also joined the company. Rahu

and Ketu posed a question—who is the most powerful god among us all? They could

not decide this issue by themselves. They went to Lord Indra for his

adjudication. Lord Indra equally found himself in a fix. He thought if he gave

judgement in favour of one, others would be displeased with him. He said,

“Respected gods, I am just one among equals. How can I decide this complicated

issue? I cannot give an impartial judgement. Better go to planet earth. Vir

Vikramaditya rules over there. He is very logical, judicious and righteous.

 

Accordingly, they went to King Vikramaditya.King Vikramaditya gave due respect

to them and begged for any service. They told him about their mission. Though it

was a difficult task, Vikramaditya being a dutiful king, accepted it gracefully.

Vikramaditya decided that he would not pronounce his verdict directly. He,

therefore arranged seven beautiful thrones. These thrones were made of gold,

silver, bronze, brass, tin, zinc, mica and iron respectively. The gold throne

was placed at number one and the iron one at the end. Vikramaditya requested the

seven gods to grace the throne of their own choice. Sun was in the gold chair

while Saturn occupied the iron chair.

 

When the seven gods were in the chairs of their own choice, king Vikramaditya

said, “You may please decide your own rank now according to the order to your

throne. 1 have not thrust my judgement upon you. Saturn could see now through

the clever judgement of Vikramaditya. He stood up and said, “King Vikramaditya,

you have ranked me the lowest among the seven gods. You do not realise my power.

Sun can stay on a zodiac or ‘Rashi’ for one month and two and a quarter part of

a day, Mars for one and a half months and Jupitor for thirteen months. Mercury

and Venus can reign a zodiac for one month only. The Rahu and Ketu move in

opposite directions and pass through a zodiac in eighteen months only. It is

only I who can reign a zodiac from two and a half years to seven and a half

years. Even powerful gods tremble at my sight. When I was angry with Rama, he

got exile instead of a throne. Ravana’s family was destroyed by me when I ruled

over his zodiac. Now be prepared. It is your turn.”

 

After a short time, inauspicious period of seven and a half years was occupied

by Saturn on king Vikramaditya’s zodiac. He visited Vikramaditya’s capital as a

horse trader. He had very attractive black horses with him. When the king came

to know about the strange horses, he sent for the Ashavapaal (groom) to buy a

best horse for him. The groom selected one horse. The king was so pleased to see

the horse. He could not resist himself from riding it and giving it a kick. He

had hardly gone on the horse for a few seconds when it disappeared in the air

with a great speed. In no time, the king found himself all alone in a deep and

thick forest. He loitered here and there, but of no avail. He then met a cowboy.

The cowboy arranged some water for the king and helped him quench his thirst.

The king gave him his golden ring.

 

The king ultimately reached a nearby city and met a respectable businessman. The

businessman felt pity on him and arranged food for him. He earned high profits

by the grace of Saturn and took ‘king’ as a lucky visitor and kept him as a head

cashier. Next day the businessman took him to his house. The ‘king’ saw a

precious necklace hanging by a peg. For his great surprise he also saw the peg

swallowing the necklace. He could not explain it to the businessman. The

businessman took him for a thief and presented him before the court. The court

ordered that the king’s hands and feet be cut with one stroke of a sword. An

executor carried out these orders.

 

The ‘king’ was now without hands and feet. A ‘Tell’ (oil seed crusher) felt pity

on him and brought him to his house. He dressed the ‘king’s’ wounds and made him

capable of driving the bullocks around the grinding machine with loud voice.

Time passed on. The inauspicious period of seven and a half years was about to

be over. The ‘king’ thought of singing the Malhar Raga on a rainy day. His

powerful voice broke the silence of the night. The princess was thrilled to hear

the song in her bedroom. She got fascinated towards the singer.

 

The princess sent her personal attendant to know about the singer. The attendant

was told that the singer was a help to the Teli and without hands and feet. Even

then she decided that she would marry that man or would remain unmarried

throughout her life. She conveyed her decision to her parents. The parents

resented the decision. To register her protest, she put on ordinary clothes and

moved to a special chamber or Kopa Bhawan and lay down on an ordinary carpet.

The king and the queen ultimately bowed before the princess’s decision and said,

“If such is your fate, we are reconciled to it.”

The king sent for the Tell and said, “Arrange for the marriage of this

handicapped help of yours with the princess.” The Teli did not believe his ears

and took it as a joke. The king resented his behaviour and said, “Do not take it

as a joke. This is our final decision.” On an auspicious day, the princess’s

marriage with that handicapped person was solemnised. That was the last

inauspicious day of the king.

 

It was a honeymoon night. At mid-night, the king had a small nap. Saturn visited

the king in his dream and said, “You ranked me the lowest among the gods. You

have undergone enough sufferings for your misjudgement.’ The king begged his

pardon and said “Please do not inflict such sufferings in future on anyone as

you have inflicted upon me.” The Saturn accepted the king’s request and

disappeared. The king opened his eyes and, to his great surprise, found his

hands and feet in proper shape. The princess’s joy knew no bounds when she saw

her husband in perfect shape. Next day, the king also felt as much happy. And

when the king came to know that his son-in-law was no one else but king

Vikramaditya himself, he was overwhelmed with joy and praised his stars.

The businessman got this news and felt guilty over his behaviour towards.

Vikramaditya. He invited him for dinner. King Vikramaditya said, “I shall dine

in the same room where the peg swallowed your precious necklace.” The

businessman agreed and arranged the dinner in that room. When the invitees were

dining, they saw to their great surprise that the precious necklace was slowly

emerging from the same peg. The businessman was so much overwhelmed at this

sight that he, too, decided to marry off his daughter to Vikramaditya.

 

King Vikramaditya returned to his kingdom. He and his two queens were received

with full warmth by the subjects. The king asked his courtiers to make a

proclamation by the beat of drum that Saturn is not less powerful than any other

god and that they should keep fast on Saturday as a mark of honour of Saturn.

Also, they should feed the ants, both in the morning and evening.

Dear Patel,

 

I am no expert in remedies but I have learned through experience and I because I

have an exalted saturn in lagna - this teaches me things. So far I have gone

through 5 years of sade sati and I am now in my last and final phase. I have

found that this period of 7 1/2 years is a time to wrap up warm, in the

philosophical sense, and be prepared. I believe one just needs to have a regular

and consistent spiritual practice. Consistency is the key here. Saturn is the

most spiritualising planet - He wants you to become spiritual, consistent,

devoted. Whatever saturn does, he does for a reason. He teaches, he is the

greatest and most effective teacher of them all. The lessons you learn is sade

sati are for your own benefit and they lifetime lessons. Please, just keep a

regular, daily spiritual practice.

 

You can pray to Hanuman or Narasimha - its up to you. Some say worship Kartikeya

is also effective. The other day I chanted 100 Hanuman chalisa in one sitting

and found this very effective. If you can maintain your daily spiritual

discipline - you wont go far wrong in the sade sati. Also donate some cash to

people who do menial work - e.g. toilet cleaners, rubbish collecters - this can

prove quite effective too.

 

All is well. Peace, Love and Light,

 

Taj
