Respected members,

 

Devising the form of upaya:

 

 

Lal Kitab 1952 urdu ed page 620 last lines :

 

Saturn in the 7th house

 

Khand se bharkar bansari bahar veerane mein

dabana mubarik, basharte ki Shanishchar soya

na ho; agar soya ho to shahad ke bartan ka

upaya madadgar hoga

 

At the first reading it would appear that if the

Saturn is not dormant [ soya hua] then bury in

a barren place a flute filled with desi sugar [ khand ] ;

if the Saturn is dormant then bury a pot filled with honey.

 

But it is not so. That is not the correct understanding

 

 

So much so a well known Lal Kitab scholar

made a slip when he wrote in his book for Saturn in 7th:

kisi bartan ko shahad se bharkar bahar

dabane ka upaya sahayak hoga

 

 

The correct upaya is to establish at home in

the south west corner a pot filled with honey.

Thus the correct upaya is establishing and not burying.

This has already been discussed here in the group.

Those who wish to read the logic behind establishing

can go to the archives and read.

 

I began by giving this example to show how

difficult it is to devise an upaya and more so to

decide the form of upaya

 

 

In most cases, the Lal Kitab does not

explain the form of upaya to be done. It just

suggests that the upaya for such-n-such planet

be done e.g. mangal ka upaya madadgar hoga.

This statement by itself is not very helpful. It is

the Lalkitabist who has to decide the form of this

mangal ka upaya. He has to decide whether the

karaks of mangal are to be immersed in flowing

water, or gifted at a temple or buried and so on.

The upaya devised has to be correct and effective.

This needs a very good understanding of the

system and a very wide experience.

 

Let me explain this with an example :

 

For Rahu placed in the Kendra houses, it is advised

that the upaya should be done of the planet which

gets exalted in that house.

 

Therefore, if the Rahu is placed in the 1st house

and has been identified as malefic then surya ka

upaya madadgar hoga. Now what should be the

form of this surya ka upaya. Should we immerse

the karaks of the Sun in flowing water, or should

we bury the karaks of the sun, or should we offer

the karaks of the sun at a temple, or any other

form of upaya to be devised.

 

Thankfully in this case it has been indicated that

the karaks of the Sun should be gifted at a temple.

This is done to strengthen the Sun so that he

could withstand the eclipsing ability of Rahu.

 

But for the same Rahu in the 10th house the book says:

 

khali mandir se rahu sota, tez swabhav manda ho

mitra grah par keechad deta, upaya mangal ka uttam ho

 

Now in this case no indication has been given as to

what will be the form of mangal ka upaya, like the

in the case of Rahu in the 1st house where gifting the

karaks of Sun has been indicated. Will gifting the karaks

of mangal at any temple be a correct upaya?

 

If not, then what should be the form of the upaya ?

 

A rahu placed in the 10th can not do any damage to

Saturn but it will definitely harm the significations

of the 10th house, be it a job or name or fame. Therefore,

if the rahu is adjudged as malefic, then an upaya

will become necessary. So what would be the form

of the upaya. We know that mangal will help, but in

what form? It is the Lalkitabist who has to decide the

form of the upaya.

 

Since the book says:

 

Rahu ka manda asar teve wale par nahi hoga :

jab mangal nek ho

 

 

In this case the Rahu has to be brought under control

such that it is not able to damage the significations of

the 10th house. Since Mangal shubh alone can control

Rahu therefore the karak of mangal shubh has to be

established at home, keep at home a little honey

in a silver dibbi towards the west. This upaya will

keep the belligerent Rahu under control.

 

Now you know the difference. In one case it is gifting

the karaks which would be an effective upaya where as

in the next case it is establishing a karak would be an

effective upaya.

 

Therefore devising upaya is a science which a

Lalkitabist has to learn. It comes with time and

experience. That is why upaya suggested through

ready reckoners do not work.

Dear Mr. Varun Trivedi,

 

Thank you for this very inspirating article on Upaya, which I like to

say a few things about. However, I have a rather liberal approach to

Upaya as I consider the Upayas mentioned in Lal Kitab to be merely

suggestions and guidelines meant to stimulate the intuition, empathy

and discriminative power of the astrologer to make him create his own

remedies depending upon the circumstances, time and place of each

individual client.

 

You have given Saturn in the 7th house as an example. But normally I

would perhaps not be much concerned about that. After all it is Ucha

(exalted) and even if the 1st house was empty thus making this Saturn

sleeping or dormant it would not cause too much alarm except perhaps

if Ketu was ahead of Saturn thereby turning it malefic. In that case I

might even consider Ketu the problem, since Ketu is what made this

Saturn Malefic.

 

Then you say something very interesting about Rahu in kendras where

the planet that gets exalted in the house occupied by Rahu should be

considered for Upay. However, regarding Rahu in the first, it is

alreading said in Lal Kitab that the Sun would be eclipsed, not the

Sun itself but the house occupied by the Sun.

 

In annual charts, however, I have often had the experience, that it is

really the Sun itself that gets eclipsed and destroyed when Rahu is in

the first rather than the house occupied by the Sun. Rahu coming to

the 1st house can really destroy the rank and position of a person.

 

However, the problem with Rahu in the 1st in the context of Upay is

that the Sun is both significator of the first house and also exalted

there at the same time, and it make little difference if we involve it

in Upay for one reason or the other as long as it is the same planet.

 

In the 1952 edition under Rahu in the 10th it is mentioned that Upay

of Mars would be beneficial if there is also Moon in the 4th house. Do

you know the reason for this? I think it is difficult to grasp.

 

Then if Rahu was in the 7th house, Saturn would hardly be my first

choice for remedy even though it is exalted there. I would no doubt

consider Venus first and perhaps also Mercury if daughters or sisters

were involved.

 

Rahu in the 4th by itself should not be a problem as it has takes this

oath not to cause evil when alone or with the Moon in 4th house. I

don't know if remedy of Jupiter could be used in case of Rahu being

malefic in the 4th. I think Moon or perhaps Saturn would be my first

choice in such a case.

 

Best regards,

Finn Wandahl

Respected Wandahl saheb,

Many thanks for your response. It is a pleasure reading your views.

You have asked ;

In the 1952 edition under Rahu in the 10th it is mentioned that Upayof Mars would be beneficial if there is also Moon in the 4th house. Do you know the reason for this? I think it is difficult to grasp.

As I understand basically it means that in case moon is in the 4th while the Rahu is in the 10th then it would result in:

Foggy and unrealistic thoughts, brain splitting agony, weak eyes, diminished wealth.

If you notice the areas most affected are the karaks of the moon and the reason being that Rahu will have an aspect on the moon.

If that happens then the Mars upayashould be done

with respect and regards,

Varun Trivedi

Respected Umesh ji,

 

 

RAHU in house # 10 :

 

1952 urdu ed : Page 680 ; note # 9

 

Khyali dimagi dhuan bayas pareshani – dimagh

phate ya sar kate ya nazar gum ho jave- aur dhan

daulat par bijli ki tarah manda asar hoga

 

[ Chandra khana # 4 ]

 

While answering to Wandahl ji, the context he

had asked me to explain from was Rahu in the

10th house. Therefore I had translated the above

lines from the book into English for my answer.

 

With great respect and regards,

 

Varun Trivedi

Respected Yograj ji,

Respected Umesh ji,

 

My two cents:

 

It is very simple to decide which of the two statements will be

operative.

 

If you find the nishaniyan of the first statement to be true then it

is the moon you will have to do the upaya for; and if the second

statement is found to be true then the upaya will have to be done

for rahu.

 

Great regards and respect

 

Varun Trivedi
