Dear Ramadas-ji, Sanjay-ji and other Gurus

 

The sandhi shanti dicussion has been really enlightening. I had been

searching for some information because a priest recommended the Kuja-

Rahu shanti for a relative.

 

My question in this regard is that does this have to be performed

even if the the planets concerned are well placed in the rasi chart ?

 

For example I'm currently running Rahu dasa (going into Jupiter).

Rahu is in the first house with dispositor venus in the 11th Leo and

Jupiter is retrograde in the 6th house Pisces (own house). In this

case is sandhi shanti required ?

 

Full positions in Rasi:

Lagna: Libra

1st: Ra, Su 6th: Ju 7th: Ke 8th: Mo 9th: Ma 10th:Sa

11th:Ve 12th: Me

 

Thanks again

Dear Svayambu Ji,

If you ask me,my answer is yes.Both Rahu and Guru are enemic to each other.Both are in 6-8 to each other.Actually Sandhi Shanti has to be performed atleast 6 months before starting of Guru Dasa.If you delay this time period,you may experience a little of this Dasa Sandhi.Here the main ptoblem is the health problem.

Here I am quoting my own example.When Guru Dasa started in 4/7/1973 ( using 360 Savana days per year ),my parents forgot to perform the Sandhi Shanti for Rahu-Brihaspati.I can say that it was written in my fate that I had to suffer.Guru's Antara was till 11/8/1975.In my chart,Lagna is Makara with Chandra there, Rahu and vargothama Shukra in 2nd house and Ravi,Budha and Vargothama Guru in 3rd house.So both the planets are in 2-12 to each other.See that Rahu is with Yoga Karaka Shukra who is very strong in the chart but still its after effects are shown in Guru Dasa -Guru's Antara.As per my rememberance,around 1st week of March 1975,I got a sudden attack of Chicken-Pox and suffered severely for about 2 months with complete bed rest.

This is for your information.

In order to aviod severe health problems, it is better to perform Sandhi Shanti as prescribed by the priest.

I hope this helps you.

My teacher hails from Karnataka (Dakshina

Kannada), so I asked him about this puja yesterday. He told me

that this puja is very commonly performed

there. Without asking, he himself mentioned that this puja is

normally performed only if the grahas in

question are ill-placed. By way of introduction, he hails from

a traditional havyaka family. His brother

is a practicing Jyotisha, and his nephew is a veda pandit.

 

The clear impression I got from him, and

from the mail thread on this list, is that this puja is not a cheap affair.

It requires a large number of priests, as

well as a large number of dravyas. This may explain why it is not

always performed for each member of the

family.

My Dear Ajith,

Which is important ? Money or health ? If I would not have performed Shani Shanti Homam and Mrityunjaya Homam along with their Mantra Japam ( Shani - 23000 and Mrityunjaya - 16000 ),my wife would not have been alive now.The purpose of performing any Graha Shantis or Sandhi Shantis is not to waste money but to reduce the melafic effect of such planets which might come afterwards.

I am writing in these columns is not because I wanted somebody to spend money but to help the needy.I just wanted to share the knowledge I got from past more than 20 years not only by reading Jyotish books but also discussion with highly learned Jyotish and Vedic Scholars.

I strongly feel that now my time has come to retire from active Jyotish and turn to more spirituality.

If I have hurt anybody,please forgive me.

Dear Ramadas,

 

Unfortunately, whenever I reply to your

mails, I seem to give you the impression that I am “questioning you”.

Nowhere did I mention anything about sandhi shanti being a waste of money. I am

only pointing out the practical problems. Since you yourself recently pointed

out that you are a practical person, I wrote a practical point. Secondly, I

very clearly mentioned that these are the views of my teacher. So far, I

thought you might like to discuss. However, it seems you have already discussed

for 20 years, and now want to teach the knowledge. I am sorry and will keep my

mouth closed. Lastly, it is safe to say that  everytime a sandhi shanti is not

performed, someone dies not die. These is no doubt whatsoever that the sandhi

shanti should be performed when possible, and must be performed when the

planetary positions warrant it.

 

I am sorry for chiming in over the last

few days. I will return to my other work.

 

Thanks,

 

      ajit

Dear Venkatesh Ji,

As far as my knowledge is concerned,I have no idea other than performing Sandhi Shanti Homam.But as I wrote in my previous mail, for Kuja-Rahu,Rahu-Brihaspati and Shukra-Surya Sandhi Shanti Homam has to be performed ,if these planets are in 2-12 or 6-8 positions to each other.Even angle or Kendra placement from one to another planet also proved problamatic in 3 cases which I got. For other planets,there is no Sandhi Dosha is there.

 

I hope this helps you.

om namo näräyaëäya

Dear Ajith,

I feel you have mistaken me.If you read my 1st mail in this thread,then you would not have written like this.I never wrote that Sandhi Shanti has to be performed for every change in Dasa.It is only for Kuja-Rahu,Rahu-Brihaspati and Shukra-Arka if these planets are 2-12 or 6-8 to each other,then Sandhi Shanti Homam if done removes the evil of this Dasa Sandhi.In 3 cases,the Kendra placement of these planets gave some health problems during the beginning of the next planetary Dasa.

Now whether if a person does these remedies, depends on his Karmas and I can not say nothing more.If he wants to perform such remedies in his life time,then God will arrange sufficient finance to perform them,otherwise not.

Dear Ramadas,

 

Unfortunately, whenever I reply to your mails, I seem to give you the impression that I am “questioning you”. Nowhere did I mention anything about sandhi shanti being a waste of money. I am only pointing out the practical problems. Since you yourself recently pointed out that you are a practical person, I wrote a practical point. Secondly, I very clearly mentioned that these are the views of my teacher. So far, I thought you might like to discuss. However, it seems you have already discussed for 20 years, and now want to teach the knowledge. I am sorry and will keep my mouth closed. Lastly, it is safe to say that everytime a sandhi shanti is not performed, someone dies not die. These is no doubt whatsoever that the sandhi shanti should be performed when possible, and must be performed when the planetary positions warrant it.

 

I am sorry for chiming in over the last few days. I will return to my other work.

 

Thanks,

 

ajit

My Dear Ajith,

 

Which is important ? Money or health ? If I would not have performed Shani Shanti Homam and Mrityunjaya Homam along with their Mantra Japam ( Shani - 23000 and Mrityunjaya - 16000 ),my wife would not have been alive now.The purpose of performing any Graha Shantis or Sandhi Shantis is not to waste money but to reduce the melafic effect of such planets which might come afterwards.

 

I am writing in these columns is not because I wanted somebody to spend money but to help the needy.I just wanted to share the knowledge I got from past more than 20 years not only by reading Jyotish books but also discussion with highly learned Jyotish and Vedic Scholars.

 

I strongly feel that now my time has come to retire from active Jyotish and turn to more spirituality.

 

If I have hurt anybody,please forgive me.

My teacher hails from Karnataka (Dakshina Kannada), so I asked him about this puja yesterday. He told me

that this puja is very commonly performed there. Without asking, he himself mentioned that this puja is

normally performed only if the grahas in question are ill-placed. By way of introduction, he hails from

a traditional havyaka family. His brother is a practicing Jyotisha, and his nephew is a veda pandit.

 

The clear impression I got from him, and from the mail thread on this list, is that this puja is not a cheap affair.

It requires a large number of priests, as well as a large number of dravyas. This may explain why it is not

always performed for each member of the family.

Dear Svayambu Ji,

 

If you ask me,my answer is yes.Both Rahu and Guru are enemic to each other.Both are in 6-8 to each other.Actually Sandhi Shanti has to be performed atleast 6 months before starting of Guru Dasa.If you delay this time period,you may experience a little of this Dasa Sandhi.Here the main ptoblem is the health problem.

 

Here I am quoting my own example.When Guru Dasa started in 4/7/1973 ( using 360 Savana days per year ),my parents forgot to perform the Sandhi Shanti for Rahu-Brihaspati.I can say that it was written in my fate that I had to suffer.Guru's Antara was till 11/8/1975.In my chart,Lagna is Makara with Chandra there, Rahu and vargothama Shukra in 2nd house and Ravi,Budha and Vargothama Guru in 3rd house.So both the planets are in 2-12 to each other.See that Rahu is with Yoga Karaka Shukra who is very strong in the chart but still its after effects are shown in Guru Dasa -Guru's Antara.As per my rememberance,around 1st week of March 1975,I got a sudden attack of Chicken-Pox and suffered severely for about 2 months with complete bed rest.

 

This is for your information.

 

In order to aviod severe health problems, it is better to perform Sandhi Shanti as prescribed by the priest.

 

I hope this helps you.

Dear Ramadas-ji, Sanjay-ji and other GurusThe sandhi shanti dicussion has been really enlightening. I had been searching for some information because a priest recommended the Kuja-Rahu shanti for a relative.My question in this regard is that does this have to be performed even if the the planets concerned are well placed in the rasi chart

?For example I'm currently running Rahu dasa (going into Jupiter). Rahu is in the first house with dispositor venus in the 11th Leo and Jupiter is retrograde in the 6th house Pisces (own house). In this case is sandhi shanti required ?Full positions in Rasi:Lagna: Libra1st: Ra, Su 6th: Ju 7th: Ke 8th: Mo 9th: Ma 10th:Sa
