Karma Theory Paper 1 MA(Astrology)


Karma Theory

 

 

The word Astro means  light or star and logos means logic or science, Hence Science of light. In Sanskrit its called as  Jyotish. Astrology tries to foretell the future of a man, fate of nations, wars, revolutions etc. Astrology corresponds between movements of planets and events in the life of each individual. Astrology is also called as divine science which came to us from god as gift through sages  who propagated for the benefit of humanity

Buddi karmanmanusarine  . i.e you will  reap what you sow. Karma can be rectified by doing some remedial  deeds. Karma can be softened if not  eradicated completely.

 

Birth chart consists of 12 houses. 1st house represents Lagna and 10th house represents Karma. The planets of these houses will relate to each other.The sign in which moon is placed is called Rashi( Moon sign). Saturn and Mars are Karakas for Karma. Mercury and Moon are cause for Manipulation. And mind.  Mana decides if karmas are good or bad

 

The aim of studying Karma theory is to overcome the previous karmas with various preventive remedial methods like santhi , propitiation etc.,

By understanding Karma siddhanta one can become work oriented and useful to the society. The person can minimize the malefic impacts or get the benefic results to the fullest extent.

As per Hindu mythology Karma theory rests on

1. rebirth

2. One cannot escape from doing Karma i.e. an action less existence is not possible.

3. The fruits of actions have to be enjoyed.

That is the only way in which the cycle of action and its results gets pent.

 

Avasyam anubhoktavyam  krutam karma shubhasubham   na bhuktam nakshayate karma kalpa koti shatairahi

 

 

At the time of birth every body comes with punya and papam on to the earth. Depending up on their karma, they enjoy or suffer the deeds of their karma.

Astrology is mainly based on the above 3 principles. Astrology reads the Karmic pattern which has a link with the past lives and also with future lives. Horoscope indicates the net balance of Karmas that the native is carrying with him.

 

 

Classifications of Karmas :

 

1.  The first category of Karma is of action.

      Kayaka – means bodily

      Vachaka – actions of speech.

      Manasika – mental influences.

 

A person is always performing the above types of Karmas in all the 3 states

called Jagruth, swapna, Sushuptha.

 

2.  This is result oriented . This is of 3 types.

 

a. Sanchita Karma – It is accumulated Karma, carried forward from previous births. The horoscope indicates Sanchita Karma.

 

b. Prarabdha Karma: This is the Karma phala allotted or operative during this life. This is indicated in horoscope in Dasa sequence.

 

c. Agami Karma: Net of Karma phala which will fructify in future lives.

 

3.  Whether (Prarbdha has to be experienced or can be modified?) if there are no ways of modifying Prarabdha there is no use in knowing Prarabdha phala. Hence astrology loses its importance in this angle.

 

The Karma phala is classified into 3 varieties.

 

1. Drudha – fixed or unavoidable.

2. Adrudha – flexible. Means Karma phalas are avoidable by good actions.

3. Drudha – Adrudha – mixed category. The evil effects in this category are called   Ganda and can be  overcome by some santhi Karmas or propitiations.

 

The utilty of astrology is widely experienced in this angle.

In Drudha Karmas man has no choice but face the results.

Adrudha Karma indicates the area where one can experience his free will to improve the best of the pre-destined results or overcome misfortunes partly or fully.

Drudha adrudha Karma is the mixed area where the astrologer cannot locate where the strokes of destiny become more mightily dominant over freewill or vice versa.

As per H.N. Katve a famous astrologer from Karnataka one has to suffer sins committed consciously or unconsciously,

by himself or indicated by Saturn.

By father -  sun

By mother - moon

Forefathers - Rahu

By wife - Venus

By children- Jupiter

By friends and persons outside the family – Mercury.

By siblings or because of fixed assets – Mars.

Hence the planets in the horoscope are the indicators of our Karma phala.

By the study of astrology one can identify the period when a person can expect good results or bad results and proper remedial measure can be taken.

 

If a person knows that the coming days are very good he will not work from now onwards. If he knows that coming days are very bad he feels panic and sorrow from now onwards. Hence in one point of view it is waste to know the future. But this not the concept of astrology. The concept of astrology is by knowing the future events one can adopt preventive or curing methods. These preventive methods are called Remedial measures.

 

REMEDIAL MEASURES:

 

There are several types of remedial measures like medicines, mantra, japa,tapa,Homa dana, ratnadharana.  

Japa: Any disease affects our mind in the beginning, hence remedy should start from mind. Japam develops concentration and energy. It removes mental disturbances and illness. It is better to do japa for himself, if he is unable to japa others can do for him. The person doing japa should be pious.

Medicine: Every disease is related to a planet and every planet is the significators of a herb or plant or some cereals. So these herbs are the medicines for that particular disease. For example: Diabetes is given by the planet Jupiter. Jupiter signifies turmeric and methi. Hence turmeric and methi are medicines for diabetes.

dana: a person gets more satisfaction in giving to others rather than enjoying for himself.  So donation of items related to planet is the best way of remedy.

Gemstones:  Light rays from sun are reflected from planet and become energetic. Similarly good gems release good energy.

Different methods of selecting a Gemstone:

1. According to numerology

2. According to birth star.

3. According to present dasa.

4. According to sun sign.

5. According to KP system etc.,

 

Color therapy: It is observed that colored light rays show effect on human beings.

Red color – INCREASED heartbeat rate , breathing , B.P. etc., - gives energy  - showing interest in others affairs, RBC rate increased in anemic patients.

Blue color – reduces the high B.P, high heartbeat and breathing problems are cured – mental illness is cured slowly.

 It is observed that using different lighting arrangements in the kitchen the taste of the food is changed. In bedrooms yellow and red color produced heat, blue color gives coolness.

Red , orange and yellow colored rooms appear to be small. Light blue, light green and light violet colored rooms appear to be spacious.

 

Gem Therapy: Soak the related gemstone in the night and drink that water in the morning. Similarly use alcohol in the case of water and homeo sugar pills soaked in that alcohol can be taken in that medicine.

 

Yoga therapy: This controls the mind and the body.

Solar therapy:  Carry out Suryanamaskaras at the time of sunrise while chanting surya mantras. One can also take sunbath.

 

Conclusion:

 

Like this by studying the horoscope of a person astrologer can identify the Karma phala , the results of Karma phala , the time of experiencing the karmaphala results and proper remedial measures.
