The Literature of India

Books are the legacies that a great genius leaves to mankind

Left to the posterity of those that are yet unborn. – Dante

By Vedas no books are meant. This perspective is contrary to what people think. They are eternal truths cognised by the Seers in higher states of Consciousness.


Books have great value. Reading maketh a full man, said Bacon. Writing a precise man and Conference a ready man.

There are so many books in Vedic Literature. The Rishies meant that Knowledge is the main criterion for success, Vidya Dhanam Sarva Dhanal Pradhanam. Knowledge is that which cannot be stolen, that which cannot be taxed, that which cannot be shared and that which is not burdensome. When compared to mundane wealth, Divine Wealth or Wisdom is greater ! Wisdom has her blessings unknown to Wealth.

We have heard about Dante and Goethe, but not Aurobindo or Tagore. We know Laplace and Lagrange, if not Liebniz, but not Aryabhata or Bhaskara. We know Shakespeare, but not Kalidasa ! Beethoven and Mozart we know, but not Thyagaraja.

It is our aim to disseminate quality information about the vast Indian literature and the literatuers and the poets who adorned this great ocean. Let us enjoy Kalidasa and Magha ! Let us revel in the intellectual brilliance of Aryabhata, Varaha and Bhaskara. Let us immerse ourselves in Thyagaraja. Let us be inspired by Aurobindo and Tagore !

Astro Meterology Articles on Astrologia Vedica

I just moved all my Astro Meteorology articles from Eastro Vedica
to Astrologia Vedica , as Eastro Vedica was getting immense traffic. 22 GB. I removed all unnecessary links from Astrologia Vedica, which now functions as an Astro Meteorology site. Those who have got ideas about Astro Meterology are welcome to contribute articles to Astrologia Vedica. We can develop this science. There are only two well known books on the subject, the Mysterium Cosmographicum by Kepler and Krishi Geetha by Parasurama.

Sachin back in action !






Many called for his retirement but Sachin is Sachin. He scored a glorious 76 which initiated Indian scoring over 300. England may lead but Sachin had a point to prove.

Why should he retired just because Ponting has retired ? Still runs can flow from his blessed bat !

India needs him and with him around Indian batting looks formidable ( particularly in India ).

Transit of Saturn through Sidereal Libra


  
( Saturn entered Libra  on Nov 15 , 2011  and is there for 2 ½ years )

Saturn teaches us frugality, simplicity and humility. He teaches us the value of time. He is a great taskmaster and He brings in a sense of discipline in our lives. He is not an evil Karma account keeper, as most  imagine. If you take a loan, you have to pay interest. Similarly you have to  pay for your wages. Saturn purges you of your sins and leads you to Self Actualisation !

Most of the things that have gone wrong with the world - the Great Recession
& political chaos - can be attributed to Saturn. Financial stringency and crisis, chaotic weather, accidents that were frequent, high failure rates of governments responding to crisis are all the works of Saturn in Libra


Here we give the effects of Transit Saturn in Libra for different signs.


Moon Sign - Is the Zodiacal Sign where your Moon is posited in your sidereal horoscope in Astrology Vedic.
 


Moon Sign Virgo -  


This is the last phase of Elarata Saturn.

The first five years were intensely agonising and the next 2 1/2 years ( this phase ) will give some relief. But you are forewarned that Elarata Saturn is not over. Again there will be many tests and tribulations till 2006. Destruction to wealth and happiness indicated ( Sukhartha Vihathim ). Loss of position, great expenditure, health hazards and transfer to some other place indicated. Emaciated physical appearance, loss of comfort, acquisition but not enjoyment of wealth.

Moon Sign  Leo - 

Saturn turns benign and blesses you with many favours.  There will be gain of position and subordinates ( Sthanartha Bhrithyadhikam ). Financial condition improves. All that you lost during his stay in the 12th, Ist and 2nd  will be redeemed. You get political connections and favours from politicians. Luck in gambling indicated. Stock exchange, jackpot and lotteries should be tried. Why not take advantage of this benign Saturnine stance ? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Moon Sign Cancer  - 


Saturn turns adverse in the 4th. There will be a dearth of happiness ( Sthree Bandhastha Sukhachyuthim ). Mental peace and happiness takes a beating. Thisperiod is known as Angular Saturn or Kandaka Sani. The 4th Refers to domestic happiness . Domestic happiness becomes a scarce commodity. Relatives become enemies and mental tension increases. Separation from friends and family members, suspicious nature, crooked behaviour and wicked acts.

Moon Sign Gemini - 


Separation from sons, loss of money and frequent quarrels. Fall from Wealth and happiness ( Dhana Sukha Bramsam ). Mind becomes a pot of mental turmoil as the planet of Melancholy marks your for his own. Gloomy mood always. You need not worry as the next phase of Saturn will give you whatever you have lost including happiness.

Moon Sign Taurus - 

Saturn turns benefic in the 6th. All the blocks and hindrances on the path to progress vanish. You get the favour of politicians and powerful people. There will be luck in gambling. Enemies get destroyed as the planet which gives all round happiness becomes favourably posited. Favour from enemies and diseases & association with the fair sex. All your enemies will be subjugated ( Sapathna Kshayam ).

Moon Sign Aries  - 


Saturn is in the adverse 7th now. This is called Kandaka Sani or Angular Saturn.  Mental peace and happiness gets affected. Misunderstanding with loved ones cannot be ruled out. As the seventh house represents spouse, Saturn's position therein is not good from the perspective of conjugal happiness. Separation from wife and children and aimless roaming about. There may be tendencies for long travel and to move away from one's own place. 

Moon Sign Pisces  - 

Saturn is extremely malefic in the 8th. All sorts of impediments and obstacles crop up in your path. Melancholy
marks you for her own during this dark phase .Misunderstandings with loved ones. Enemy trouble indicated. You are forewarned to avoid arguments and unnecessary speculation. This is not the ideal time to speculate. Also be careful in handling human relations. Indulgence in mean activities is the result and you will be bereft of happiness. There will be sorrow and loss in the financial sphere ( Analpa Dukha Nichayam ). Dhanakshayam or unnecessary expenditure will characterise this period. 


Moon Sign Aquarius  - 


Saturn may cause financial tightness. Obstacles and mental worry. Suffers from hatred ,heart trouble and even imprisonment. There will be tendencies to move away from Wisdom and the Law ( Dharma Pranasa Mayan ). This is the ideal time for Meditation and to enjoy the bliss of the Self.

Moon Sign  Capricorn  - 


Saturn causes loss in the financial sphere ( Daridram ). Be careful about speculation and investment. Gets new avocations but loses money and fame. This is a bad phase temporarily and is called Angular Saturn. Mind becomes perturbed as a result of an adverse Saturnine stance.  You can recourse to Remedial Astrology for solace.


Moon Sign Sagittarius  - 


This is a prosperous period as Saturn turns benign and blesses you with financial and educational gains. Your assets will increase. And so will goodwill and reputation. Your merits will be extolled. If you speculate, you may come up with flying colours. Monetary windfall can be expected from the stock market. Birth of a son and general happiness. If you take the proper calculated risks, you can get gain from the stock market and jackpot. ( Dhana labham ). 

Moon Sign  Scorpio  - 

In the 12th, Saturn marks the beginning of Elarata Saturn ( His 7 1/2 adverse period.) Everything goes topsy
turvy. Do not take unnecessary risks as this period is highly adverse. Dangers to health & wealth indicated. Transfer to some other area is also possible.  Be careful about handling money as Saturn can damage your purse ( Artha Vihathim ). Be careful about calumny, misunderstandings, enemy trouble and problems from the jealous, which can upset your mind. 

Moon Sign  Libra 


Saturn is highly adverse in the First. All sorts of strife and afflictions will visit you. ( Nana Roga Shucham ). Fear from poison or fire, of friends and family members., fear of incarceration, travel to foreign lands, loss of money ,near and dear ones. Fear of vicious enemies, destruction of agriculture, monetary quarrels and litigation, loss in agriculture, separation from kith and kin and suffering from insults. You become gloomy and melancholic as problems overwhelm you. Melancholy will mark you for her own. Waste of time, waste of money, waste of effort etc characterise this Saturnine period. There may be change of location, dissipation of wealth and factors detrimental to health crop up. Be careful about health and wealth as Saturn, the melancholy planet, can devastate you.  Misunderstandings will be caused by this destiny planet and it can affect your Love life, thus proving that Astrology affects Love !

Astro-Therapy for Saturnine Transit 

Saturn is the second biggest planet in the solar system. ( 700 earths can be fit into Saturn ) & his transit is indeed very important to the astrological fraternity.  As he is the planet of Ayus or Longevity, his transits can make or break you, healthwise.  He also rules Death & diseases.  In Medical Astrology, he rules the Vayu Tattwa, the Air Principle in the body physiologic ( as the human body is made up of the Five Great Elements ). Arthritis,  paralysis & epilepsy, loss of appetite & the diseases caused by deficiency of the Air Element are caused by him. He represents Sorrow, the Sorrow of the Cosmic Man, the sorrow inherent in the act of Manifestation. He represents the masses and is the planet of Democracy and Communism. He is the Celestial Judge of all actions. He is the planet of Boundless Time, Eternity.  He is also the Death planet (Mrityur Vyadhischa Dukham Shanirapi Gadhitham ). He can elevate you to dizzy heights and at the same time hurl you into the abyss of dissolution. He creates fear of enemies. He causes quarrels related to money and destruction of agriculture. His satellite Gulika ( mythologically represented as his son ) is another highly malefic planet. ( Akhila Mrityu Samhara Karako Mandi ).  In Horary Astrology, if both Saturn and Gulika are together, it spells big trouble for the querent. If they are together in the 4th, it can indicate a disease of the location, like cancer ! ( "Cancer is a disease of the location" - Dr Hartman )

Jove in the 11th good for me !


Some guys who are newbies are using my articles on Gemology. I caught ten of them and wrote to them to give me credit.” At least mention the source”, I told them. The Resource Box must be intact if one is to publish somebody else’s article.
Meanwhile I am redesigning, optimising www.eastrovedica.com ,as I feel that this site is affected by Penguin and Panda ! Unnecessary links, keywords etc are removed. I have never done keyword stuffing in my life. So my articles are free from that blemish.
Traffic is picking up at my sites on Deerfield server and the article sites are coming of age. I do not get sufficient time to work on Facebook and Youtube, because of the redesigning work.
My time has changed. Even though Jupiter in the 11th is good for career, Saturn in the 4th is not. Transit Saturn is creating obstacles and impediments, denying the much needed mental peace. Jupiter will be there in the lunar 11th and so I dont have to worry till May 31st, when He moves over to Gemini. Then there is scope for alarm and despondency, as He will be in my adverse twelfth !

See the Diamonds in Blue !





See the Diamonds in Blue. Glorious lights in a blue background. The Full Moon occurs there during the lunar month of Karthika and we call this Festival of Lights, Deepawali !

The constellation of Karthika are the Pleiades, the Seven Sisters in the Western. In the Indian they are the seven wives of the Seven Sages or Sapta Rishies !
Long live the Eternal Law, the Sanatana Dharma !


In Western Mythology, the Seven Sisters were loved by Orion, the Hunter. At their behest, Jupiter converted them into doves and placed them in the heavens. In the Indian, they are the wives of the Seven Rishies. Arundhathi or Alcyone is the central Star. There is a theory in Astronomy that our Sun is revolving around Alcyone, the Grand Central Sun !

In the Indian tradition, the bride is always shown Mizar, Vasishta and Arundhati. Arundathi was an Exemplar of Chastity. These two bright stars are always seen in the heavens. It is Vedic belief that they will not be seen when Death is approaching !
