Guest guest Posted July 12, 2000 Report Share Posted July 12, 2000 Om Vishnave Namah Dear Steve & Jyotisha, Comments on one question are below IN BOLD TO DIFFERENTIATE - > Lesson #3 Assignment, > Greetings, RATH: NAMASKAR > This is submitted without looking at previous posts. I'll look at > those after I upload this attachment. > > Q1. Why do the five planets have lordships over two houses whereas > sun and moon only have one? > The puranic story is that initially only the sun and moon had rashis > (heaps) but Mercury and then the other planets each asked sun and > moon for a house so they were given one on each side. There surely > are many levels of meaning to this story. If we treat the Sun and > Moon as Parashara does, the Sun is the Soul of all and the moon the > mind. We can think then of the moon as being the reflection of the > Sun, the owner of the 12th house from the Sun, the planet of loss of > Soul and therefore the planet of maximum point of materiality or > alternatively the planet of the maximum point of merger in Universal > Being. It is then the role of each planet first to participate in the > Divine Play as it moves from the Sun toward the moon and into > materiality and then to participate in the divine play as it > participates from the Moon toward the Sun and back to spirituality. > Something like this. RATH:INTERESTING. YET THE QUESTION REMAINS: WHY DID THE SUN AGREE TO GIVE: LOOK IN THE GITA FOR THE ANSWER. STUDY SANKHYA SHASTRA. > Questions I have: Does anyone know or have a theory as to why Sun and > Moon own the 5th and 4th Rashis and not the 1st and 2d? RATH:SIMPLE. DRAW A LINE FROM 0 DEG LEO TO 0 DEG AQUARIUS. NOW TRY TO ANSWER. THIS IS THE UTTAR/DAKSHIN-AYANA LINE. > > Q2. My Birthtime: June 27, 1939, 11:24:56 AM, DST, NYC. During that > time the Moon was in Dakshina Ayana. RATH: YOU TOO MAKE THE STANDARD MISTAKE. THE AYANA IS THE DECLINATION AND NOT UTTARAYANA OR DAKSHINAYANA. > Q3. On Feb 12, 1940 it moved into Uttara Ayana. > > Q4. The mantra seems to be Om Hraum Saha Jun. OM is pranava, Ganesh, > the Veda, Brahma, the seed impulse of liveliness of Oneness, which > Parashara calls Vishnu, beginningless and endless. It's shape in > Devanagari is like the profile of Lord Ganesh, head, potbelly and > trunk. The dot above the crescent is like the eye of Ganesh, the > point value of creation, the most localized value of Vishnu.-Supreme > Being. The crescent under the point is the transition, the phases of > activity from the point back to the whole. There is always more to be > said about this cosmic hum within which all exists and can be > perceived as we increase in moksha. > > Hraum, Saha and Jun I know nothing of except that in a book called > the Daily Routine of the Hindus, the author says that all the stems > of the seed mantras can be applied in adoration of particular deities > by prefixing the stems with the first letter of the deitie's > name. So > Gum is for Ganesh as are Gaim, Glaum, etc. > Hraum could be for Hari or Hara. Saha I don't know. Perhaps Jun > is > for Jagannath. > > Jai Sri Ram > Steve Sufian RATH: THE MANTRA IS " OM HOUM JUM SAH " . VISIT www.sjvc.net/Mantra/mritunjay.htm and get the meanings of these syllables. this is the merger of the sadashiva beeja (HOUM) and the Mritunjaya Beeja (Jum).
