Guest guest Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 Respected Dharmaveer ji, Yes, the lal kitab does suggest that one of the upaya for mercury placed in the 9th could be keeping a solid iron goli painted dull red [ Mars ]. As you know mercury is formed of Jupiter + Rahu. Therefore in the 9th house it is the Rahu component of the mercury which causes maximum damage. Therefore the remedy is aimed against this Rahu. Any solid spherical object is a karak shape of Rahu but it should be solid. There should not be any hollow or any space left inside lest mercury gets in there. It is because of this reason a goli is chosen, because of the shape. Iron is chosen for two reasons: one that the Rahu is a chhaya grah [ a shadow planet ] and has no individuality of its own. It acts as an agent of the Saturn. Secondly, if you know that when the Saturn is malefic the book describes it of Rahu swabhav [ of Rahu’s nature ]. Therefore when ever Rahu acts belligerent there is always a part of Saturn in it. As we all know that Mars alone can subjugate a Rahu, the mahout controlling the elephant, that is why the dull red [not the shining red] has been chosen. Therefore the solid iron goli painted with dull red color is suggested as one of the upaya for Mercury in the 9th house. The same upaya is also suggested for Ketu in the 1st house of the Janma Kundali. In this case the goli shape is chosen because in the Janma Kundali if the Ketu is in the 1st house then the Rahu would be in the 7th and will damage Ketu through an aspect from the 7th. The material iron has been chosen for the same reason that Ketu is also acting as an agent of Saturn. The dull red colour [ Mars ], in this case, is chosen not because it is a mahout of the elephant, but because the 1st house belongs to the Mars.
