Guest guest Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 Namastey to all learned members, I know the purpose of Ishta Devata, Palan Karta, and Guru Devata, but what exactly does Dharma Devata stand for? Being the 12th from Karakamsha, Ishta Devata is related to our soul and has the final say in all our affairs. Now, being 9th from Karakamsha, what does the Dharma Devata signify? Is it the same as the 9th house in our Rasi Chart, which denotes fortune, luck, fate, philosophy, higher learning, and father, and as a result, Dharma Devata would also be related to all these. If not, does it have a different signification? Could you please enlighten me on this aspect? Thank you. Kissna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 Namasthe There are basicaly 4 categories of devathas as far as an individual is concerned. They 1) Ishata Devatha - One that is very personal to each individual 2) Dhrama Devatha - One that is being worhipped at home for generations 3) Kula Devatha : One that is being worhipped by a clan. This is only for some Brahmin communities, the rights of which were supposed to have been given by lord parasurama himself. 4) Grama devatha: The presiding deity of the village As for your query about Dharma Devatha - It is taken from the 4th house, its lord , associations etc. I hope this helps A.G.Suresh Babu , " kissnab " <kissna wrote: > > Please, could anybody clarify on this aspect? > > Thank you.
