Directions [ dishayen ] and the Lal Kitab / Kulbir bhai

[Guest guest]

Dear Kulbir bhai,

 

Yes you are right. Pandit ji has assigned a disha for each house ,

except the 9th,in the kundali. But all these directions are with the

directions assigned to the area within the house, that is why no

disha is assigned to the 9th house. The 9th house has been

designated as the center. You know that center is not a disha.

 

If Pandit ji was assigning geographical directions for the houses in

the kundali, then even the 9th house would have been assigned a

disha. Kulbir bhai every space in this world has a disha. There can

not be even an inch of space on this earth which can not be defined

through a disha.That means the disha Pandit ji is talking about are

the makan kundali disha and not geographical disha.

 

Just for the fun of it, draw a blank kundali. Write east over the

Lagna, North by the side of the 10th, west under the 7th, and south

by the side of the 4th. And plot the houses according to the disha

assigned to the various houses by Pandit ji [ or the makan kundali

disha].

 

See for yourself what picture emerges. Can any one make head or tail

out of it.

 

Regards,

 

Varun
