Concept
Daśā

A planetary period governing when a birth-chart placement actually delivers its results — nested into a major Dasha, its Antardasha (sub-period), and a finer Sookshma Dasha (subtle sub-period), with results turning positive or negative depending on which planet is active and its own condition.

Avaran puja and amavasya temple visits make the deity reveal the real cause of hardship
The speaker says that if one has worshipped Bhagwati Durga or Bhagwati Kali for ten years and "this is not happening, that is not happening", no matter: learn the Aavaran Puja of her Yantra, satisfy every devi-devata, all their Ganas and all the Bhairavs, do their havan, do their mantra japa, and especially on Amavasya go to her temple and offer there. She will herself show you: perhaps some planetary influence is at work, and whatever falls under whose jurisdiction will be shown through your Ishta Devata. Some medium will form — the right person will meet you and say, for instance, that a mahadasha of the great planet Shani is running, so do japa of Shani Dev's mantras for so many days. Done: that planet's jurisdiction is fulfilled, you are out of all this, and you need not do very much at all.
Vak Siddhi from the second house of the birth chart
The first way the speaker gives is astrological: when the planets tied to the second house of the birth chart, the house of speech, begin giving their auspicious results because of the person's own Punya, his speech starts bearing fruit. He says this happens whether the person does sadhana or not, or does only ordinary sadhana, provided he has been a right-living person. It lasts as long as that planet's Dasha, antardasha or sukshma dasha runs, and in that period his words have a pure, sattvik effect on everyone.
Batuk Bhairav Brahma Kavach with a sankalp against marak dasha and accident risk
The speaker says this kavach is extremely powerful in itself and gives its effect at once. If a Marakesh Dasha or antardasha is running in one's birth chart or lagna chart, or any marakesh influence raises the fear of mishaps and accidents, one should take a Sankalpa on that subject and recite the kavach; that too gives protection.
Reciting the Batuk Bhairav Brahma Kavach for another person or for graha shanti by sankalp
The speaker says that whoever one wishes to recite this kavach for, one takes a Sankalpa in that person's name and recites; wherever they are, they will be protected. For Graha Shanti the sankalp is taken for the planet — for example, if someone's Rahu Mahadasha is troubling them, one resolves that so-and-so's Rahu mahadasha be pacified, that they quickly regain health and be freed of illness — and then recites; this, he says, works.
Jyotish and tantra are complementary: reading a long-blocked life
Asked by someone whose life has felt blocked for twenty years, the speaker says jyotish and tantra are complements, not rivals — jyotishis who call tantra a fraud and tantriks who call jyotish a fraud are both wrong, and combining the two solves every problem. First have a good jyotishacharya read the chart: which graha's Dasha and antardasha is running; whether the third house, the house of parakram, is under some planet's drishti that blocks all one's effort; the state of the lagnesh, which is most important; and the ninth house of bhagya. One should also have the chart read for one's Ishta Devata and kula shaktis. But if you already do regular pujan by a tantrokta vidhan and belong to a Guru Parampara, you do not need the birth chart — trust your guru completely and keep going. If you are an ordinary person with troubles, take the chart's remedies, and note that Rahu, Ketu and Shani doshas point to upari badha or abhichar, for which take help from the tantrokta side; find the middle path with both.
Remedy for sudden flashes of anger: mishri water in a copper lota at the bedhead
Asked about anger that flares suddenly over trivial things, souring the home, yet subsides within a minute, the speaker first asks whether the person is of Kumbha lagna with Surya and Mangal as lagnesh in the lagna — then such quick-rising, quick-cooling anger is expected. If the lagna is something else and the trouble persists, the one remedy is: every night fill a copper lota with water, add a little rock mishri, keep it at the bedhead, and in the morning offer it to Tulsi ji — not onto the plant, but poured near its root — six days a week, leaving out Sunday; relief comes in some days. His jyotish reasoning: Surya is the atmakaraka, Mangal the chief karaka of anger, copper represents Mangal, water the Moon and mishri the Sun, so this works as an utara of all three. He adds: also get a medical check — blood pressure and the like.
Shani as the judge of karma: why his dasha is feared
The speaker says people fear Shanaishchar Mahagraha, especially in his mahadasha and antardasha, because he is the judge: in his periods he gives the strongest punishment, destroys one's misdeeds and clears the Prarabdha built from them. In his eyes no one is dear or undear; whatever the karma, the fruit matches it. Those who do good deeds face no special obstacle in his Dasha; those who harmed, robbed, hurt or tormented others in their good days suffer in his periods in exact proportion.
Four ascendants that must do Shani sadhana throughout life
The speaker says that by the lagna kundali, every man and woman born with Makar, Kumbh, Vrishabh or Mithun lagna must do the sadhana and upasana of Shanaishchar Mahagraha in their life. For some he is the lagnesh, for others the bhagyesh; he is the karaka of the body and can become the karaka of fortune, so his worship is essential whether or not his period is running. The simplest form, he says, is daily Japa of his Puranic mantra.
Does the rule about gems for a debilitated graha apply to japa of its name?
The questioner asks: in jyotish, for a house or graha that is neecha, a gem is not given, but the reverse — for a graha that is strong, it is made stronger. Does the same thing happen in the japa of the names of the grahas as well?
What should be done about a very stubborn seven-year-old child?
The child is seven years old now, he says — explain with love. When he becomes eight or nine years old, then explain by beating. And keep one thing in mind: although up to the age of thirteen years it is nothing particular, even so, if some special condition arises with children, then having the analysis of their birth kundali done by some enlightened and learned jyotishi, whatever subject is arising should be remedied.
The vidhan answers graha-caused, material and mental conditions arising with the child
Have it done by this, he says, and then whatever is happening with the child — if some graha-caused subject, some material subject, some mental subject is arising — benefit will certainly be obtained in it.
Rudrashtakam beyond deva dosha: wider benefits and Rahu mahadasha
The speaker says Shiva calms everyone, so taking refuge in him through the Rudrashtakam for this purpose brings immense benefit. He says the hymn has many other vidhi-vidhan through which other kinds of wellbeing are achieved, and that it also works in jyotish, for instance when Rahu's influence is active or a Rahu Mahadasha is running, and can be done for that as well. But he says its special use, where it gives the greatest benefit, is for pacifying deva-dosha.
Which devi of the Durga kavach is named for the protection of the lifespan?
Varahi is named for the protection of ayu. If in the janma kundali the mahadasha or antardasha of the marakesh and the like is running and some problem of apghat has arisen — accidents happening again and again, injuries being taken, a feeling that some such mishap may occur — then in such a state, for the protection of your lifespan, you should do a specific pujan of Bhagavati Varahi.
How should one choose a line of study after the twelfth standard?
Look at the things related to the line in which your attraction is very great; have an analysis of the kundali done, as to what benefit it does, where your attraction is, in what your mind is very much set on going — and then choose it.
Which deity should be worshipped for success in share market trading?
Asked which god should be worshipped for success in trading in the share market, he says do the puja of Shiva ji; and today have the analysis of your own kundali done — the ninth bhava, the eleventh bhava and the fifth bhava, these three — and accordingly do some specific vidhis as well.
It is said from experience only, so have the kundali analysed once as well.
Prafull ji, what you are describing happens because of the effect of Rahu, the speaker says. But he adds that he is only saying this according to experience — it is not necessary; even so, have your kundali analysed once by some good jyotishi as well.
What remedy does he give for allergic asthma?
Brother, first get the birth chart analysed once and see what the position of Chandra is, the speaker says — it is necessary to look at it, because the whole subject of asthma is dependent on the position of Chandra, and only on that basis can a remedy for asthma be done correctly. If it has already become old, it is very difficult to control, and you have to carry the whole matter yourself with alertness.
What remedy is there for causeless fear and anxiety?
Addressing a listener named Aditya, the speaker says the causes of causeless fear are very many. If Rahu's dasha or antardasha is running, if Chandra is afflicted in the chart, and even if a sookshma dasha runs, it gives a shock and departs. Fear without cause, fear at the thought of something that has not happened — all this begins to occur. So get a chart analysis done once and do the fitting remedy.
Are there times when a kundali should not be read?
He says the procedure exists: there are a great many times in which there is a restriction on looking at a kundali, in which you should not do the vivechan of a janma kundali, and in which you should not employ what is examined by tantra — whatever siddhi you may have. But, he says, where are people accepting it.
Are kundalis generated on websites reliable?
Yes, the speaker says, a kundali made from a website stays roughly correct. Do not pay attention to the phaladesh and the rest. The mool kundali they tell roughly right.
From which bhav should the ishta be determined?
Asked whether the ishta is to be determined from the fifth or the ninth bhav, and whether the ishta should be seen in both: basically these are two kinds of opinion, that is true — some say the fifth, some say the ninth. According to me, he answers, make an assessment of both, and according to whichever is obtained in a strong and high position, determine your ishta accordingly. And more than that is this: towards which form is your heart restless.
No software is used to read a kundali, though apps can be found online.
Asked which software he uses to see a kundali and to suggest an app, the speaker says apps can be seen online, but that he himself does not use software at present.
What guidance is there for someone under Shani's sade-sati?
By Shani Dev's grace both spiritual and material development take place, the speaker says, and if his sade-sati is running it is not necessary that it will be one that gives you suffering. If, according to the kundali, Shani is a friendly graha for your lagnesh — if he is a friend to the lagna graha — then ordinarily he does not give adverse effects. Even so, get the kundali analysed, and if you want to do something proper for him, you can.
What does Ravi with Rahu in the third house indicate?
To a listener who says his lagna is Tula and that Ravi and Rahu are in the third place, in Dhanu rashi, the speaker answers that as it is in the third place there is pitru dosha in full form.
Which anushthan helps a child in a competitive examination?
For a competition, if the whole matter of a government job is running, then he says again and again that the sadhana of Bhagavan Suryanarayan is very necessary. Tell your own child to do the one connected with him. If you do it yourself, how much of what you did will reach him? A sixth part is obtained. So tell him to take out a little time — at least let him get up in the morning and give arghya to Suryanarayan. And see what situation is being formed in his fifth bhav, and accordingly do the sadhana for his sake, or have it done, or take a sankalp and do it yourself.
Why does a kundali show a maraka period at all?
The speaker says akal mrityu is not written in the kundali and in the karma — it is a yoga, and it is not necessary that it belong to this karma, to this birth of yours. When a marakesh mahadasha is running and a jyotishi says a death is possible or such an accident may occur, that does not mean it has been written that it will happen: the kundali exists precisely so that you may be warned and may correct it.
How is the daily puja of the eight yoginis of the kundali done?
The speaker says there is no need to do the daily puja of all eight yoginis who run according to the kundali. It is right if you perform the puja only of her whose mahadasha is running upon you.
How is a yoga of a big accident in the kundali cut?
The speaker calls it a simple matter: whichever graha is causing the yoga of an accident to be shown, whichever marakesh whose mahadasha is running — for that, accordingly, you should first do the upaya. If it is the marakesh, then pacify them by having daan and japa done. And secondly, if they are your yoga-karaka and also the cause of the accident, then do the japa and kavach japa related to them and wear it as well; and you may wear the ratna, the rudraksha, the yantra and the kavach related to the grahas that are your protectors.
How is a good day and time chosen for buying a vehicle?
Asked for a good day and time this month for a brother who wishes to buy a new car, the speaker says it will have to be told after looking — according to your brother's chandra kundali, and what the gochar is at present.
What does it mean when a Siddha Yogini is running in the kundali?
The speaker says Siddha Yogini is among the eight yoginis, of which there was talk above: the fruit comes according to whichever yogini's mahadasha is running. All eight yoginis have their separate fruit, and the yoginis too have their full effect.
Which tattva does Kanya lagna belong to?
Asked whether Kanya lagna is air, water, earth and so on, the speaker says the question is incomplete — if there is a particular reason for knowing the tattva of Kanya lagna, tell it and he will answer; what will you do with the tattva? Ask the full question. He adds that in any case the tattva is related to prithvi tattva.
Shani changes rashi that day and remains in Meen for two and a half years.
From that same day Shani Dev's gochar into Meen rashi, the rashi of Bhagavan Brihaspati Dev, begins — he changes rashi that day. For the two and a half years of his stay there, the speaker says, discharge as faithfully as you can whatever duty and responsibility falls to you in your life, and do anushthan with full discipline; the fruit will certainly be obtained.
How does Shani Dev give results?
Shani Dev, the speaker says, is of that category of divine graha which is dhira: one who assesses with great fineness and subtlety, observes, and only afterwards gives the result. He gives very slowly, and it becomes an extreme test of patience.
Anushthan after anushthan may appear to bear no fruit while the testing runs.
So much testing, and so much patience is required in the test, that you will grow tired doing anushthan after anushthan. This is his own life's experience in the mahadasha of Bhagavan Shani Dev, he says: the fellow sadhaks and guru bhais around him saw their anushthans fruit with such speed, while his own simply were not fruiting at one period. The rules, he says, are not different for you and for us.
When does Shani begin to give what was earned?
When his time to go arrives, when he is in his final phase, then whatever good karma you have done, whatever anushthans and purashcharans you have performed, he begins to give. And when he begins to give, you will wonder how attainment is coming with such ease.
Can a marriage into a rich house override what prarabdha has written?
Suppose it is written in your prarabdha that the marriage should be into a poor house, and by one means or another you marry into a rich house, the speaker says: even if the marriage takes place into a rich house, if it is written that life is to be passed in poverty, then some event or other will certainly occur, so that in two or four, five or ten years you will become poor. And if your prarabdha is good and you do seva-puja, then it may also change — it may be that living in poverty was written, but that the poverty is not of that level.
What about the faults of the birth chart?
If after the first three or four sadhanas a birth-chart fault still seems to be affecting you, either have its Shanti performed, or make the Daan and wear what the running Dasha and Antardasha require — or do seven-day sadhanas of your Panchamesh, Lagnesh and Navamesh. One month covers it.
What should be done for a graha problem such as a Shani mahadasha?
If a problem relating to a graha is running — you know that a Shani mahadasha is on, that he is marakesh and your situation is about to worsen or has already worsened — then at such a time, along with the pujan of Bhagwan Shiva in Savan, do japa of Shani Dev's mala mantra or the Shani Ashtak in the Shiva temple itself, for his pleasure.
Why is Shani pleased by japa done in a Shiva temple?
Bhagwan Shani Dev is a disciple of Bhagwan Shiva, the speaker says, and he too is held to be a form of Mahakal — that kaal itself is in the form of Shani. So the japa you do in a Shiva temple will become the cause of his pleasure, and most swiftly he will turn his cruel gaze into a gentle one.
A running Rahu mahadasha with Rahu in the eighth house produces a condition of extreme confusion
He describes a person he was speaking with that day: Rahu was in the eighth house, and the kundali was perhaps of Simha lagna, as far as he remembers. The condition was one of extreme confusion. In such a condition, where a Rahu mahadasha is running and giving that confusion, the puja of Shiva ji is obligatory — it simply has to be done.
Which shakti is worshipped to please Rahu?
For the pleasure of Rahu Dev, the vidhan of the mantra of Bhagavati Simhika, who has been called Rahu's mother, is on the channel. If you wish, do japa of the mantras of both of them, even one mala each, in the Shiva temple, and pray that their gaze become gentle and that their auspicious grace be obtained and this great confusion be removed.
The kavach purashcharan is chosen from the kundali, whether a panchama bali or a navama bali, and begun as early as possible.
As early as possible, at a young age, he would have the purashcharan of one kavach after another begun, the speaker says. According to the kundali — whether it is a panchama bali or a navama bali, seen by the chandra kundali and the lagna kundali — his sadhana would have begun from the start in accordance with suitable guidance.
What can be done for success in a competitive exam during a Rahu mahadasha?
Absolutely something can be done, the speaker says, but it depends first on which bhava Rahu stands in and what the lagna is. If Rahu is going to give a good effect he will create concentration and cause very little wandering; if he is going to give a slightly negative effect, the person will prepare less for the exam and imagine the result far too much — that if we become an IAS we will become the DC here, the magistrate there — and will not study. That is Rahu bad effect: the person imagines a great deal. Since Rahu is the foremost devi upasak, do the path of the stotra and satnam of Bhagavati, which is best, and perform abhishek of Bhagavan Shiva. If the suffering is very great, then Kirtimukh Shri Maharaj will catch hold of it directly, but his method becomes somewhat tantric.
Jyotish is done with great calm and time, not in the haste of a question and answer session.
It does not work like that, brother, the speaker says — we cannot tell such things in this way. For this it is done with great calm, seeing it well. This is not a matter for haste; in a question and answer session like this, in such a hurry, it will not happen. He repeats this to a listener who gives a Mithun lagna with Sun, Venus and Mercury together in the twelfth, Shani in the second house, a retrograde Jupiter and Ketu: it does not happen like that.
Is a seizure illness in a son an akasmik maran prayoga?
Asked by a listener whose son has developed a seizure illness whether it is an akasmik maran and for guidance, the speaker says that first of all, if his birth kundali exists, have it analysed — what matter of Rahu is present there, especially whether the dasha antardasha of Brihaspati Dev is coming, whether the dasha antardasha of Rahu is coming or has passed, and what their state is. And if the son has an elder brother — this, he stresses, is a matter of his own experience, which he has not yet seen anywhere in writing — if in the elder brother birth kundali there is the presence of Ketu in the eleventh bhava, and if a grahan yoga of Chandra and Ketu is forming, then the possibility arises that a younger brother may at some point in life have such a condition for some time, especially when the dasha antardasha of Rahu or of Ketu is about to come along with Brihaspati Dev.
The lagna is set aside and Shani's effect on sadhana is given as a plain exposition, bhava by bhava.
He says the lagna is to be forgotten for now — who our lagnesh is, which lagna the chart belongs to — although a one-to-one analysis would hold many secrets. Only a plain general exposition by bhava will be given: how Shani Deva particularly helps in sadhana, and where, when and how he shows his ill effect.
How much can be settled from one graha alone?
Nothing much, he says. For special information one must go by the whole lagna — where the grahas are seated, where the lagnesh is, and after the lagnesh the position of the panchamesh and the navamesh, who the ashtamesh is and where he stands. All of it has to be seen. It cannot be said from one graha alone, he warns in advance: because Shani Deva is being discussed, it does not mean Shani Deva is giving the entire result.
What does Shani in the first bhava do for ugra sadhanas?
If Shani Deva is present in the first bhava, whatever the lagna, and you begin to perform sadhanas of the most ugra kind, the relation is straightforward: the lagna's relation is with one's own body. Its effect upon the body will certainly come to you gradually and of itself.
How is the third bhava connected to siblings, and how is this known?
The third bhava relates to brothers and sisters, he says. However negative any matter concerning your brother or sister, or anything related by blood, may have been — if you go into what is connected with tantra there is a most excellent subject here. This is why it is said that tantra and the kundli are related to each other; you will be able to relate it when you go into experience. The more you talk with people and the more you analyse in silence, the more you will know these things. You will not know them by writing and reading.
What does Shani in the fourth bhava give?
Since the fourth is the bhava of sukh, Shani Deva's presence there will give sukh, he says — but by the effect of mantra a great deal of maya will come here. And if by chance the yoga named Sasa, which is among the Panch Mahapurush yogas, forms in the first and fourth bhavas — a chart of Makar or Kumbh lagna with this situation present — then know one wonderful thing: sufferings are erased here with great speed, but maya will come to you so fast that you will certainly turn away from your sadhana.
Why is the maya of the fourth bhava dangerous?
By the time their dashantar dasha has ended, he says, your sadhana will already have decayed, and to rise again to that level becomes very difficult. Guard always in life against the maya of the fourth. The maya of the fourth is not ordinary. If any graha in the fourth bhava is giving its full effect and you are a sadhak or sadhika, remember that that sukh is being given only and only to bring resource to the path of your sadhana.
A worldly man, and even a jyotishi, will only tell you to enjoy the sukh of the fourth bhava.
A worldly person will never tell you this on the path of sadhana, he says — keep this in mind. A worldly man will say only: look, the effect of the fourth is coming. Even if you meet a jyotishi, he will say, now take the joy of life, the chaturthesh, the sukhesh is gracious to you, take the full joy. But for how many days will you be able to take that joy?
What happens to a person who does sadhana for the sake of bhoga?
If you are doing all this for the sake of bhoga, look at your kundli, he says: the panchamesh has become strong, Rahu's influence is falling; Rahu will certainly, certainly be there. When Rahu is powerful he gives all these things, and Shani influences it further. Then enjoy today, enjoy for ten years, because this is a long-lasting sukh. It is not that you do papa today and get punishment tomorrow. From not getting punishment your inner exultation, courage and daring grow, and you go on doing wrong — and then suffering is going to come to you birth after birth. The eleventh gives this too: there the girlfriends are wealthy ones, Switzerland ones. Guard against it.
What does Shani in the ninth bhava give a sadhak?
The ninth bhava carries the whole subject given for the fifth and the second, he says: destroying papa at the earliest, nourishing the mantra, causing the attainment of samarthya — these he certainly does. In the tenth bhava, if you are a very ambitious person, and if a relation is forming between the fourth and the tenth, and your ambition remains very greatly heightened, then either, controlling it, he will begin to show you the mirror of what reality is, and you will become a very correct person.
Capacity is given for the chase too, but the fourth bhava decides how long the material sukh lasts.
Or, if you run after ambition, then for that running they will cause you to obtain capacity as well, he says — but whether the material sukh you obtain will last for a very long time or not will be determined there according to the fourth bhava. Keep this particularly in mind. It will never be the case that we did mantra sadhana and now, as we wish, we are to buy a fifty lakh car.
What happens if Shani is the dashamesh and his dasha runs?
If Shani Deva is the lord of the tenth bhava and you are also doing mantra sadhana, and his mahadasha, antardasha or sukshma dasha is running, or his sade-sati or dhaiya is running, and you have already undergone the initial fruits so that the auspicious fruit too has begun to come to you — then if wealth and capacity of that level arrive by any means, you will see that very thing he spoke of: they will awaken your vivek. How you are to use that vivek is then up to you.
How does spending on a fifty lakh car for status illustrate misused vivek, versus turning the same money into a crore?
You can take a fifty lakh car and, simply by standing it there, build standing in society, he says — but with that same fifty lakh you could also have made one crore or two crore by doing proper financial management. The car was not that necessary; but because your ambition is there, they carry you as far as that too.
Why does a person remain poor even after obtaining great wealth?
You will meet many such people, he says. He does not wish to name them, but several have been in his contact for a long time who say: brother, a forty lakh car stands in front of our house, but our condition is such that we cannot get its full maintenance done and put petrol in it and run it, and such an expensive car does not run in the hills either. So it just stands there. The cause: capacity was obtained, but the decision and the investment went to the wrong place. Ambition was such, and attainment was indeed happening — but at the time of attainment we should have stopped: first let us fulfil our basic needs, and then let this be obtained.
Guru and Shani in the seventh of a Vrishchik lagna — why is experience delayed?
Kaustubh Joshi ji asks: Guru and Shani are in the seventh of his chart, a jyotishi said this is why experience in sadhana is delayed, and his lagna is Vrishchik. The speaker answers that the adhipati of Vrishchik lagna is Mangal. Now Shani Deva is in the seventh bhava; for him Shani has already become a strong marakesh just by that. He is seated in the rashi of Shukra Deva, all right — but in the seventh he does become a strong marakesh.
Can experience in sadhana be judged from the seventh bhava alone?
No, he says. Experience of sadhana cannot be seen from the seventh bhava alone. For this you must certainly see the matter of the fifth and the ninth: where the panchamesh is seated, where the navamesh is seated, what their condition is, what their balabal is, in which nakshatra they are, with which graha they are, and where and how their drishti is falling. It cannot be said only from the drishti of the seventh — that his seventh aspect is falling on the lagna and therefore he is having difficulty. If, however, Shani Deva's dasha and antardasha are running and this subject is arising, then it can certainly be that this is why the delay is happening. That certainly does happen.
What difference does it make if Shani is combust or retrograde?
For both these subjects — Shani Deva being combust, or being retrograde — in the sadhana-related effect discussed just now over the twelve bhavas, he says: if he is combust, then know according to the balabal that he will make still more delay in the effect. And if he is retrograde, then he will give the effect still more rapidly.
What should be done in a Shani Mahadasha with Rahu Antardasha?
Take the refuge of the Tantrokta Ratri Sukta with your eyes closed; take the refuge of Bhagavati Kali. Begin the sadhana and worship of Mahakali from this Navratri.
Is manglik dosha good for the sadhana path?
Asked whether manglik dosha is good for the sadhana marg and which sadhana a manglik person should do, he says that according to his own experience, whoever has manglik dosha should first of all see, according to the bhav, in which bhav it is and how much its balabal is. Whether it is good for the sadhana marg or not cannot be said from a manglik dosha alone.
The manibandh rekha needs a specific video of its own
Asked to give information about the manibandh rekha, he says a specific video will have to be made on it.
What should be done for an attractive personality?
Asked what to do for an attractive personality, he answers: do the pujan and paath connected with your own lagnesh and with your ishta. Wear a mala or a ratna and the like — in this way a polish will come into the personality. And absolutely, he adds, you may recite the Baglamukhi stotra and the satnam paath.
When does the Sas yoga fructify?
Asked whether the Sas yoga fructifies, he answers: in the mahadasha, antardasha, sukshmadasha and the rest of Shani. And along with that, if the position of Shani in your birth chart be right.
Is Bhairav sadhana done according to the nakshatra?
He answers that Bhairav ji is seated in so many forms that you can do his sadhana in whatever manner you wish — according to the nakshatra, according to the rashi, according to the lagna, according to the fifth and the ninth. Which will bear fruit, neither you nor he will ever be able to decide. But this is certainly held: that the Bhairav of your own kula's devi is the most capable of giving fruit, or the Bhairav of the Shakti Peeth of the region in which you live.
What of the Bhairav Tandav Stotra and the nakshatra adhipati?
Of the Shri Bhairav Tandav Stotra he says it is in that very stotra — Bhairav bheshajam kashta haram — and that is why it is done. Asked by a listener born under Uttara Bhadrapada whose adhipati is Ahirbudhnya how seva can be done, he answers that when the nakshatra series is brought, he will tell it in detail there.
Can a manglik person wear a siddh rudraksha on a red thread?
Asked by a listener who has a siddh rudraksha and a manglik kundali whether it can be worn on a red thread, he answers: you are manglik, all right. What is your age? If the age is less than twenty-eight years — and what is Mangal for you? According to the lagna, whether he is right for you or an enemy, in which bhav he is placed, what fruit he will give: it depends upon that.
Why is Sankat Nashan paath prescribed for six months?
Speaking of Matrinatmika, the speaker says they themselves prescribe it for Sankat Nashan. The reason: there are 12 rashis and there are 12 Ganapatis of Sankat Nashan, one Ganapati in each rashi; and you have 12 bhavas, each bhava with its own lord. So if you are doing the paath of the Dvadash Naam of Ganapati ji, six months is prescribed in it — for six months you are to do the paath of the 12 names as much as possible. Only then do they give their effect, he says, and there is no matter greater than it; it is a thing that gives a very powerful effect.
Why is social media governed by Rahu?
Social media is called that, he says, because its adhipati is Rahu. And those who are afflicted by him can never take the positive side from social media — they will always remain deluded. See how many people there are who take positivity from social media, learn things, use them well, earn dhan and dhanya, remove their troubles and walk holding the right path. And how many there are who learn the wrong thing from this very place. It depends on your kundali too, he says; this is also a true thing.
What is the remedy when a marakesh Shukra dasha is running and health is bad?
A listener says the Shukra dasha is running, that Shukra is the marakesh, and that health is very bad. He says: at the very least, give daan on the day of Friday. And if nothing else, do a bhandara. There will be no shortage of money for the bhandara — how much money is needed? Not much, brother, ten rupees. For ten rupees buy sugar boora, or bring a packet, a hundred grams of sugar, and every Friday take it to such a place and put it out for the ants, where they will be safe and nobody will crush them.
The more Fridays it is kept, the sooner health begins to right itself
Start doing this much, he says: the more you do this work on Fridays, the sooner, the very quickly, your health will begin to become right — if no such trouble has occurred. And even if trouble has occurred, there will still be a reduction in it.
Can the sadhana of Mahabhairav be done, and what if there is no kundali?
He tells the listener Jai Singh that he too can absolutely do the sadhana of Mahabhairav. Asked how anything can be told about those who have no kundali, he says: by the hand, by hastarekha.
What should be done when sadhana brings no benefit and the body aches?
If the body aches during sadhana, the speaker says, then first of all there is some dosha. If you are doing it yourself and are not getting benefit, then you should get both things examined — your janma kundali, and the up-parivar, that is the tantra-related things. Get its removal and utara done; if there is graha dosha, or something running of the sixth, eighth or twelfth, its japa and daan should be done through an antardasha or sukshma dasha, and only then should you do sadhana.
Why might a sankalpa of Baglamukhi satnaam fail to complete?
Asked by VK 1209 why the sankalpa of Maa Baglamukhi's satnaam has twice not been completed, the speaker says there can be two causes behind it. The first is that there may be some Mannat of yours which you are not fulfilling — some matter of a god or goddess which you have forgotten; fulfil it and the Sankalpa too will be completed. The second is which antar-Dasha is running according to your birth kundali: especially if Shani Bhagavan's is running, you will progress very slowly in the field of sadhana.
What should be done about a life filled with lethargy?
Look once at what Shani's position is becoming in transit, and what effect Shani is having on the Lagna in particular. Take advice from a proper astrologer and perform the related remedy, and the lethargy will certainly leave the body.
May a lemon bali close a set of fifty-one recitations, and may a clay havan vessel be reused?
Yes to the lemon bali at the end of fifty-one recitations; no difficulty. A clay vessel may be used for a Havan a second time as well, with no problem — but keep in mind that the vessel will crack.
What should be done during a Rahu Mahadasha with Ketu Antardasha?
Take Mahadev's refuge and perform the Anushthan of the Panchakshari by the method on the channel — better still in a Shiva temple. And do the daily Abhishek of Shiva's Chaukhat: cleaning it well and then adorning it. In a Rahu, Ketu or Shani period, this gives very auspicious fruit.
If there is no birth kundali and the family does not know, can one be made?
It is not possible, brother, he says; in this we will not be able to tell you any lie, that a birth kundali will be made. The birth kundali will not be possible. Then, from some such person who has knowledge of palmistry, who can answer through a prashna kundali, who can answer through siddhis, who knows how to read the forehead, who knows how to read the lines of the feet — such knowledgeable persons will give you accurate information about yourself through these means.
What should be done before taking up a sadhana for the stock market?
For the stock market, the speaker says, first have the kundali analysed by some competent and learned jyotishi, and have your panchamesh, Rahu, bhagya and all of it examined, to see what the matter is and what will suit and what will not. Only then perform the sadhana connected with it, and there will be benefit.
What is showing up about Brihaspati in birth charts today?
He says that from his own experience of analysing birth charts, Shani's sade-sati does not bring so great a problem for perhaps seventy-five to eighty people out of a hundred; but whenever Brihaspati falls in Rahu's antar, or Rahu in Brihaspati's antar, an extraordinary upheaval breaks out. Since Brihaspati is the karaka of scholars, of learning, of wealth and of acharyas and gurus, he reads this as a generation being punished for insulting scholars.
Insult the scholars openly if you wish, but do not then ask why the harm came.
He says: do not tell me not to frighten you by saying your harm will follow from insulting scholars. Do it openly, why are you afraid, do it fully — but then do not ask why such things are happening. Jyotish, he says, can never be wrong; only the grasping of it differs from person to person.
Can rajyogas in the chart protect a person during Brihaspati's dasha?
He says to know clearly that however many rajyogas are formed in your kundali, in the dasha and antardasha of Brihaspati — even where Brihaspati is your karaka graha, even a friend of your lagnesh, even seated in the fifth or the bhagya bhava or in his own strong positions and rashis with all his balabal intact — if you are suffering, it means you have committed offence and insult of that grade, and he has come to give punishment.
Can a destiny read from the five fingers be changed?
Asked whether the bhagya seen from the five fingers can also be changed, he says that as for bhagya, what is written can be erased only by Bhagavan Tripurari. Neither you nor I can erase it. All that is written can be erased only by Bhagavan Shiva.
How does the author say one should diagnose whether a problem stems from abhicara versus other causes like graha-dosha?
The author states that judgment about whether a problem stems from abhicara cannot be made from suspicion or wishful thinking alone, but requires investigation by experts using tools like jyotisha (Vedic astrology) and other occult or psychic methods, since suffering can equally stem from other sources such as graha-related (planetary) difficulties.
What astrological argument does the author give for Shakta Tantra's coming prominence in India?
The author cites the planetary positions at the hour of modern India's formation — Rahu in Taurus lagna and Jupiter in the sixth house — as, per jyotisha, indicating that Shakta Tantra will play a prime role in the revival of dharma in India, since Rahu is considered a strong astrological indicator of tantric and Devi worship.
How many forms of Brihaspati are held in the siddha paramparas?
In any jyotishiya calculation, when it is said that some celestial disturbance is to occur, the first condition looked at in the gochar is that of Bhagavan Brihaspati Dev. He has twelve forms; in tantra there are eighteen. In the siddha paramparas eighteen forms of the graha Brihaspati are held, answering the eighteen Mahavidyas of tantra bheda — we all know the ten Mahavidyas, but by tantra bheda there are eighteen, Twarita and Jwala Malini and Bhagavati's other forms all coming among the Mahavidyas — and with each of those forms one Maha Brihaspati is worshipped.
What can be said about constant illness and physical weakness?
A listener writes that there is always illness in the body and he cannot tell what to do — the body is weak and it is not known whether there is some tantra or some dosha. This is a matter of examination, the speaker answers: only after examining it can it be said whether it is tantra or is because of some graha dosha.
Is there a particular Bhairav for a person by rashi or kundali?
If you go that far, then there certainly are, the speaker says: there are Bhairavs according to nakshatra as well, according to your rashi as well, according to the lagna as well. For those who have to go into the Krama Bhairav sadhana, everything of that kind exists. It is not necessary for everyone in that way.
Should japa of the grahas be assigned by rashi or by lagna?
The speaker says he has put out very few videos on jyotish, but there is one for every lagna kundali. He has not put them out according to rashi, has not told the japa of the rashi, has not told that of the Chandra kundali, and has told that of the Surya kundali — the Surya kundali being the most necessary of all. The Chandra kundali has its validity, absolutely it does, but he gives the japa according to the Surya kundali and the lagna kundali: which grahas should be japped. Leave aside all the rest, the dashantar dasha, he says — even doing that much gives a very auspicious effect.
What is asked to be checked for a persistent stomach complaint?
To a listener reporting a great deal of trouble in the stomach, the speaker says: please look once whether the mahadasha or antardasha of Brihaspati or of Rahu is not running. Send your janma kundali details once and it will be looked at.
What should be looked at in a chart for an Alzheimer's condition?
A weak Brihaspati alone will not do, the speaker says: which lagna kundali is it? In what position are Chandra, Rahu and Ketu? What effect is being had, and what dashantar dasha is running? If the condition is Alzheimer's then the effect of Rahu will certainly be there, or the effect of Ketu will certainly be there, a hundred percent. If their effect is there, then Alzheimer's, dyslexia and all such things are their gift. He says they are seeing this now — from the increase in the number of such people, and from as many kundalis as have been looked at, this is the situation.
What is the cause of a blocked mind, a heavy head and daily jerks in the body?
To a questioner whose mind stays blocked, who feels as if something heavy were placed on his head, whose body gets jerks daily and in whom no thought arises, he answers that the Chandra is very weak, very badly so, and the position of Shukra is also not proper — that is why this is happening.
Will a retrograde Guru in the fifth house of a Tula lagna obstruct progeny?
Asked whether a retrograde Guru in the fifth house in a Tula lagna will create obstruction in obtaining progeny, he says that in Tula there will be some difficulty. Whose dasha and antardasha are running — that one's kripa; see whether it is the marakesh or a friend of the lagnesh, and accordingly have the daan of Guru and his shanti performed, for the sake of obtaining kripa.
