Mars & Saturn alignment - 23rd Aug to 2nd Sep World needs to be Awake & Alert !




Considering the upcoming transit of the Mars & the Saturn approaching together @23degree in Libra "Vishaka Nakshatara” (planetary war) signifies” a stimulus with undesirable consequences" that the time has come to invoke ours "voluntary motions" As, we all knows that a crisis disrupts the building blocks of a good life: education, income and health. Astrologically Vishaka denotes to "East direction". Thus movement shall be more significant towards the Eastern Countries and the North Direction like Himachal Pradesh, Jammu &Kashmir, and Himalayas regions Punjab etc. Tough times ahead Hard to deal with; especially causing pain or embarrassment, “unenviable moments for the world especially in the East Asia is the part of Asia that largely borders the Pacific Ocean, Notable Countries like The ( Russia, Afghanistan, China, Japan,India, Indonesia,Thailand,Vietnam, Iraq, Iran, Israel, Saudi Arabia, Cambodia, Pakistan) etc. are unfortunately will have to face difficult situations, hard to deal with especially causing pain or embarrassment to concern authorities is what I can predict considering the upcoming Mars & Saturn alignment .
                                 

Considering the upcoming Moon transit in fierce Magha Nakshatara, North, and West (USA, Europe) World will also not be spared by disaster, volcanic eruptions, quakes, fires, air-strikes, chemicals attacks etc.
 We are part of the global community -- there long before catastrophe strikes, and long after first responders have moved on. As United citizens, we must know & acknowledge that one’s fate is tied to the fate of others and that all of society benefits from improvements in quality of life. Our success at preparing for responding to and recovering from disasters underpins our goals in education, income, health and above all by giving respect to Mother Nature.

These are the words of greats that come to my mind while writing-up about the Mars & Saturn meet up-:
“The earth will not continue to offer its harvest, except with faithful stewardship. We cannot say we love the land and then take steps to destroy it for use by future generations.” ― Pope John Paul II 

“If we surrendered to earth's intelligence we could rise up rooted, like trees.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke,
 
“What's the use of a fine house if you haven't got a tolerable planet to put it on?” ― Henry David Thoreau


“We're in a giant car heading towards a brick wall and everyones arguing over where they're going to sit”  -― David Suzuki

Disaster work always has been and will continue to be local. However, we shall be committed to supporting members and partners as they assist their communities prepare for, respond to and recover from crises.

Astrologically The Mars (assault) and the Saturn (attrition, the negative stimulus) signifies "a conscientious decision to speak out about injustice", It’s high time that we must learn to be mindful of the future in spending money w.r.t save Nature (Environment) ---- May God bless us with Peace!

Goddess Brahmacharini – Second Among Nava Durgas

Goddess Brahmacharini – Second Among Nava Durgas

Goddess Brahmacharini is the second manifestation of Maa Durga who is worshippied on the second day of Navratri. Here word “Brahm” refers to “Tapa”. So Brahmcharini means Tapa Charini – The one who perform Tapa or penance. It is Said that the “Vedas”, “Tatva” & “Tapa” are synonyms of word “Brahm”. The form of Brahmacharini is tremendously effulgent and extremely majestic.
माँ ब्रह्मचारिणी 
मंत्र -:
मंत्रदधाना करपद्माभ्यामक्षमालाकमण्डलू ।
देवी प्रसीदतु मयि ब्रह्मचारिण्यनुत्तमा ॥
Maa BrahmaCharini holds a rosary in her right hand and Kamandalu in her left. SHE personifies love and loyalty. Mata Bhramacharni is store-house of knowledge and wisdom. Rudraksha is HER most adorned ornament. When she was incarnated as the daughter of Himalaya, then influenced by the instructions of Devrishi Narada, she practiced very hard penances in order to obtain Lord Shiva as her divine consort. Due to her unearthly penances she was termed as Brahmacharini. She spent one thousand years, only on fruits and beet-roots. One hundred years she spent only by eating leafy vegetables. For a sufficient perfiod of time observing complete fast she suffered tormenting of nature like torrential rains and scorching sun and biting cold, under the open sky. After such a difficult routine she lived only on dry Bilva pattaras (leaves) fallen on the ground for three thousand years. She kept her engrossed for twenty-four hours in worshiping Lord Shiva. After that she gave up eating even these dry leaves. For several thousand years she went on without any food and water. Because she gave up eating dry Bilva leaves so she was known to be Aparna as one of her epithets.

After the hardship of penance for several thousand years her body became extremely lean and thin. She was reduced to skeleton only. Her penance, sharpened as it was, caused great disturbance in all the three worlds. The whole universe was shaken. The Gods, the Rishis, the Siddhas, the Munis all eulogized her penance as an unprecedented virtuous action. Ultimately Lord Brahma through an oracle addressed her and said to her in a very pleasant manner-O Goddess, so far nobody has eve!r practiced such an austere penance. Only you could have done it. This wonderful deed is being praised in all the four quarters. Your desire would be fulfilled. You will decidedly get Lord Shiva as your divine consort. Now stop your penance and go home. Your father would be shortly coming to take you back.

Brahmacharini Durga is capable of providing unending benefits. By worshiping her the person inculcates penancing, renouncing, dispassion, ethical conduct and restraint in himself. Even in the most critical periods of struggle the mind remains unshaken and he does not deviate from the path of duty. By the grace of mother Brahmacharini he gets success and victory always and everywhere. On the second day of Navratri Durga Pooja it is the Brahmacharini aspect of mother Goddess Durga that is worshipped. This way the mind of the striver moving upward is established in Swadhisthana Chakra. The Yogi, who makes his mind stay in this Chakra gets the devotion and blessings of the Goddess.
Devi Brahmacharini Mantra-:  माँ ब्रह्मचारिणी की पूजा इस मंत्र के उच्चारण से की जानी चाहिए-

दधाना करपद्माभ्यामक्षमालाकमण्डलू ।
देवी प्रसीदतु मयि ब्रह्मचारिण्यनुत्तमा ॥


Jai Mata Di!

Goddess Shailputri माँ शैलपुत्री मंत्र –1st Nav Durga Roop

Goddess Shailputri – First Among Nava Durgas

Goddess Durga manifests herself in nine form called Navdurga. One of these 9 forms of Maa Durga is worshiped every day in Navratri. The fisrt form of Goddess Maa Durga known as “Shailputri”. Goddess Durga was born in the house of King of Mountains “Parvat Raj Himalaya”, so she is called “Shailputri” maens the daughter of mountain.
माँ शैलपुत्री मंत्र -
वन्दे वाञ्छितलाभाय चन्द्रार्धकृतशेखराम्।
वृषारुढां शूलधरां शैलपुत्रीं यशस्विनीम्॥ 
 Maa Shailputri is the absolute from of Mother Nature. She is also known as Goddess Parvati the consort of Lord Shiva & mother of Ganesha and Kartikeya. In the Navratra festival the worshiping Mother Goddess has a half moon in her forehead & she is holding a trident in her right hand & lotus flower in her left hand. she rides on mount Nandi a bull.

In some scriptures like Shivapurana & Devi Bhagvatam the story of Mother Goddess is written as follow:  Maa Bhagwati in her earlier birth was born as a daughter of Daksh Prajapati. Then her name was ‘Sati’ and she was married to Lord Shiva. But in a sacrificial ceremony organized by her father Prajapati Daksh, she got her body burnt in the yogic fire, because she could not bear the insult of her husband Lord Shiva by her father Prajapati Daksha in the sacrificial ceremony.

In her next birth she incarnated her as Goddess Parvati, the daughter of Parvatraj Himalaya and among Nava Durgas she has been referred to as Sailaputri who was again known as Himavati. In her Haimavati aspect she defeated all prominent gods. Like her previous birth in this life also Maa Shailaputri (Parvati) got married with Lord Shiva. The first and the most prominent among Nava Durgas, Shailaputri is of immense importance and her glories are endless. On the first day of Navratra worship it is she who is worshiped.

She is the Devi of the root chakra, who, upon awakening, begins Her journey upwards.  Sitting on Nandi, and making her first journey from the Muladarachakra.  As from her father to her husband – the awakening Shakti, beginning Her search for Lord Shiva or making a move towards her Shiva. So that, In navrati pooja the first day Yogi’s keep their mind concentrated on Muladhara. This is the starting point of their spiritual discipline. They started their Yogasadha from here. Shaila Putri is the Mooladhara Shakti to be realized within Self and sought for higher depths, in the yogic meditation.

Devi Shailputri Mantra-: माँ शैलपुत्री की पूजा इस मंत्र के उच्चारण से की जानी चाहिए-
वन्दे वाञ्छितलाभाय चन्द्रार्धकृतशेखराम्।
वृषारुढां शूलधरां शैलपुत्रीं यशस्विनीम्॥

Ram Setu- Adam's Bridge Having existence, being or actuality!

The Ram Setu or Adam’s Bridge, believed by Hindus to be a bridge built by Lord Ram to journey to Lanka. This bridge is said to be one of the mostsignificant religious sites for Hindus, and plays a significant role in the Ramayana.
In present times(kaliyuga), unfortunately our (Indian Politicians groups)- for vote bank politics, questioning the very existence of Ram Setu! this is the most Tragical fact & irony of present times for all Hindu's!
At least NOW Hindus should wake up & notice with alarm the jeopardy we are in because of the ill understood word "secular".
Indeed there was a song that describes today's reality so factfully - "Ram Chandra Keh Gaye Siyaa Se"

Hay jeray, hay jeray, hay
Ram chandra keh gaye Siyaa se , aisaa Kailyug aayegaa
Hans chugegaa daanaa dunkaa, Kauwaa motee-khaa-e-gaa

Siyaa ne poochhaa Bhagavan, Kalyug me dharam karam ko
Ko-ee nahee maanegaa? To Prabhu bole –

Dharma bhee hogaa, karma bhee hogaa, (2)
Parantu sharam nahee hogee Baat baat me maat pitaa ko  2
Betaa aakh dikaa-egaa Ramchandra keh gaye…

Raaja aur prajaa dono me hogi nishidin khee-chaa-ta-ni 2
Kadam kadam par karenge dono apni apni man maanee (2
Jiske haath me hogee laathee, (2) bhais wohee lejaa-egaa…

Suno Siya Kaliyug me kaala dhan aur kaalee man honge (2
Chor uchake nagar seth aur prabhu bhakt nirdan honge (2
Jo hogaa lobhee aur bhogee, (2), wo yogee kehlaa-e-gaa…

Mandir soona soona hogaa, bharee rahegee madhu-shala (2
Pita ke sang sang bhari sabha me nachegee ghar ke baala 2
Kaisaa kanyaa-daan pita he,(2) kanyaa kaa dhan khaa-e-ga




Shri Ram speaks to Sita: Such “dark days” will come when swans will eat grains and crows will enjoy the pearls.  -  Sita asks Shri Ram “Lord in Kali Age no one will practice Dharma and Karma?  -  And Shri Ram Answered “Yes indeed people will practice some religion and good deeds but there will be no Sharma or no sense of shame in the majority of people   -  There will be complete breakdown of respect and honor in the home. As a matter of fact sons will not be hesitant to rebuke their fathers.  -  There will continuous “tug” and “war” between rulers and theAir subjects. Both will execute the thoughts of their own mind, regardless of the consequence they anticipate. He who holds the stick in hand and is mighty will be the “fit ruler”.  -  Listen Sita, in Kaliyug, man’s mind and wealth will be “Black”. Thieves and robbers will be “rich” ones and devotees of Ram will be :poor”. Those who are greedy and seek pleasures, will be called yogis.  -  The Mandirs will remain empty but on the contrary the “Bars” will be full. Fathers will encourage their daughters to dance in public. What sort of “Kanyadaan” will a father give when he is envious of his daughter’s wealth.”

Our 'FAITH' has taken pride of place & we all Lord Ram worshipper must rise to the occassion and come together for our religious faith.
Jai Shri Ram~

Retrograde Mars in Virgo represents Summer time with Dew Factor!

                         It's a summertime affair!
Astrology analysis of the current unpredictable Weather & People! Considering current Transits of Mars (Rx) in Virgo aspected by Sun in Pisces.

Retrograde Mars in Virgo(till
May 20th, 2014) signifies the Summer time with Dew (Virgo)Factor! Erratic weather has some wishing it would 'make up its mind already!



It’s all so Bizarre!! be it "people around", The current transit of Sun in Pisces in Saturn "Uttrabhadprada" Nakshatara, making our Politicians behavior kind of not conforming to any legality, moral law, or social convention, adopting unlawful measures or be it current "freakish weather" or so called "Breaking News", all behaving dramatically, kind of unstable, unpredictable & in an uncharacteristic manner......                             
The Mars(Rx)-a (Lucid Thinker)in Virgo(Virgo being the 6th house of (arguement's)of the natural zodiac)signifies “logical argument’s”. Thus “Dispassion” is the only way to control our main source of  frustration's" ......, Know everything is a dream, our desires, worries and wants are responsible for the state of a person's emotions (especially with regard to pleasure or dejections) …….., Drop the worries and drop the wants......, that is what is known as dispassion…….., and that's exactly what Mars Retrograde Planet's denotes……..  :)

Erratic weather has some wishing it would 'make up its mind already' be careful to erratic weather & maverick politicians/ppl" or theirs action’s & be prepared for "unforeseeable consequences"……..!
