Guest guest Posted January 30, 2000 Report Share Posted January 30, 2000 Jaya Jagannath Dear Gauranga, Agreed. Also learn the gotra of the planets. It shows that even if one is adopted, like Mercury (Atri Gotra) the child of the Moon (Atri Gotra) was adopted by Jupiter (Angiras gotra), his gotra does not change. Thus, the Gotra has to do with the progenitor and NOT the pater. The Maharishi's established the lineage so that the individuals can easily identify their Kula Devata and have a better life. With the advent of Kali, all this knowledge was lost except in Bharat (India). The appearance of Krishna showed that the Moon will have a predominant role instead of the Sun in the forthcoming period of Kali.

I was contemplating on Maharishi Parashara's statement that the Sun and the Moon are of royal status. In the genealogy of the universe given in the Srimad Bhagavatam we read about two royal failies or lineages emerging: the lineage of the Sun (Surya-vamsha) and the lineage of the Moon (Soma-vamsha). Sri Rama appeared in the Surya-vamsha and Sri Krishna appeared in the Soma-vamsha. So the purpose of the formation of these two lineages was to prepare the appearance of Bhagavan in these two forms.
