Why do remedies don't work?
It is a question that many of us (particularly the professional astrologers) must have come across one time or another. Now the next question is what should be the criteria, what should be the yardstick and what should be the exact modus operandi to find the problematic area in a chart? I am very sorry to say
that most of the Lal Kitab practitioners are not paying complete
consideration to this segment and they often diverge from the
very principles of the Lal Kitab astrology. Their main thrust is to
recommend various remedial measures (sometime very clumsy and
undesired) that is why they lack the "killer punch". This very
impetuosity is one of the causes for a grand failure.
I would like to share some of the basic principles for
analysing a chart as per Lal Kitab as taught to me by my Gurujans and
senior colleagues.
The very first principle while analyzing a chart is
the "Tewe Ki Darustee", I am afraid that not many people (except Mr. Umesh
Sharma ji, Mr. Vipin Shukla ji and Shri Rajinder Bhatia ji and a
handful others) use this rectification technique. How one can do justice
with the client and this divine subject without a proper "Darustee"
of the chart? Good results can be expected once an
appropriate "Darustee" of the chart is done. Pt. Ji advised to shake the chart 2-3
times to achieve the clear picture.
The second very important factor is to find whether the Tewa
is "Baalig" or "Naa-Baaligh" , as Lal Kitab uses a separate process
for both of these. Even the Varsh-Phal of a "Na-Baaligh" will be
different from the normal one (please refer Varsh-Phal chart of
Lal Kitab Teesra Hissa (GuTka)-1941) .
The third point I would like to emphasize is the "Dharmi
Tewa" characteristic of a chart. Because Lal Kitab has advise an
entirely different approach in case of a "Dharmi Tewa". Unlike a normal
Tewa the planets in a "Dharmi-Tewa" behaves in a different way.
Sh. Nirmal Bhardwaj ji raised another important factor the
other day. That point is regarding "Baap-Bete ki Mushtarka Kundli",
particularly in case of a joint family this point is worth
considering.
The consideration of "Nasht Ho Chukey Grah" is also
necessary (detail of these planets are there in the revered Lal Kitab),
because in such cases remedial measures are entirely different.
An honest Lal Kitab astrologer always consider the "Pitri-
Rin" as a major feature, because I have seen that the natives
having "Pitri- Rin" in their charts seldom get any benefits whatsoever in spite
of performing numerous remedial measures.
After studying these deciding factors, the next step is to
determine the problematic area (planets). This is a very
delicate and sensitive part of analyzing the chart as per the Lal Kitab
astrology, because sometimes what we see on the paper does not reflect the
true picture. Once the malefic planets are recognized – half of the
work is done. It is utmost urgent to know the nature of the planets
in a Chart. There are various method described in detail in the
revered Lal Kitab i.e. "Budh Ka Bhed" for knowing the exact nature of
the planet Mercury and "Shani Ka Zaati Swabhao" for Saturn and so
on.
Even one is successful to find the exact problematic planet
in a chart, the most important thing is to determine whether the
planet (rather its effects) is remediable or not. I am talking
about "Grah- Phal" and "Rashi-Phal" , because it is said in the very beginning
of the revered Lal Kitab that "Beemari Ka Ilaaj Hai, Magar Maut Ka
Koyi Ilaaj Nahee", it is very clear from this phrase that the "Maut"
(death) is "Grah-Phal" and is irremediable, whereas
the "Beemari" (illness) is "Rashi-Phal" and is possibly repairable. So one
should be vigilant and watchful while recommending the remedies.
As far as the remedies are concerned one must not expect
any miracle, although miracle does happen. The remedies are not like
any paranormal thing; it is a sort of balancing act of energies. If
the remedies are suggested and execute appropriately, it invalidates
the depressing energies and the native is blessed with positive
energies around him. It helps him to think positively, to appreciate the
situation honestly and fight the state of affairs more bravely.
It is not in the human capacity to prevent the rainfall, but the
divine umbrella of remedies unquestionably helps him to safeguard
himself from being drenched. If one can't slay a beast, he can atleast
elevate his periphery walls so that the creature could not
trespass his premises. That is the whole logic behind the remedies.
The classical Hindu methodology settling the affairs by
using Saam (by Dialogue), Daam (by Price), Dand (by Force) and Bhed
(by Mischief) is commonly used in the Lal Kitab remedies.
Saam: Appeasing a deity by worshipping for
reducing or increasing the bad or good effects of a planet.
Daam: Offering or donating articles related to a
particular planet for reducing or increasing the bad or good
effects of a planet.
Dand: Throwing, immersing, burying, or burning
articles related to a particular planet for altering the
negative effects in ones favour.
Bhed: Establishing, donating, offering or
keeping items of a particular planet, try to remove a particular
segment (as per Masnooyee Grah combination) of a malefic planet wherever
possible, establishing a common friend between two rival planets
and strengthening a planet that is believed to have the power to
level a wayward planet (e.g. Mars for Rahu) etc. reduces the malefic
effects of a malefic planet and enhance the positive results of the
suffering one.
