YANTRAS Each planet in astrology possesses a special energ y pattern. A Yantra is the visible
form of an energy body, represented by a Mantra. Two general types of Yantras exist:

’
a.  Numerical Yantra s - where in special significant numbers
nu mbers are inscribed.
’
 b. Geometrical Yantra s - based on specific geometrical designs.

Yantra should be frequently energized with the appropriate Mantras. They must be cleaned and
empowered periodically like gemstones by the user. Yantra,s are l ess expensive than gemstones.

They can be more effective than gems if meditated upon with mantras. They possess no

have focused on the four basic purposes of life and have selected those Yantra s that address the
fulfillment of desires in these four directions. According to Vedic teachings, the four basic
 purposes or goals of life are:

Pursuit of Dharma (Vocation), Pursuit of Artha (Wealth), Pursuit of Kama (Sensual Pleasures),
Pursuit of Moksha (Salvation)

Planetary Yantra
The Planetary Yantra has two sides. On one side is the impression of the Surya Yantra and the

From times immemorial, Vedic Astrology has had the power to make u s aware of the planetary
influences on our lives as well as the remedial power to help us balance

and of improving them. It is said that the 'Devas' (Gods) or Deities (Goddess) reside in the
Yantras and by performing 'Pooja' or worship of Yantras, one can appease the Deities, remove
the malefic effects of planets, and increase the flow of positive influences.

Numeric Surya Yantra

Sun is the prime ray that nourishes all other planet rays. It is symbolized as the light of life, nourishment,
evolution and revelation. It is that element of creation without which every other aspect of creation is
non-existent. In all the philosophic and religious existence in different cultures of the world, sun holds
the highest position.

In effect each of us have to pass the test of evil, elevate ourselves to the platform of sound judgment
and only then can the true light be visible for us. So, when Saturn is causing sorrow it is actually letting
us know about our own actions. It cannot cause sorrow prom the prime journey as God created all of us
in his form and gave a minute portion of his power to all of us. The reservoir was the same so Saturn had
no role to play then. It is only at later stage during our karmic journey that we gathered negative points
and each one of them have to be balanced through the suffering inflicted by Saturn. So it is said t hat one
can only reach the light of the Sun after having crossed the darkness of Saturn.

The numeric Yantra is an all purpose Yantra created out of three prime metals. Gold, Silver and Copper.
Copper is the core, then there is a Silver border and finally encased in gold. The numeric pattern is
engraved on the c opper on one side and the

The numeric Yantra is an all purpose Yantra created out of three prime metals. Gold, Silver and Copper.
Copper is the core, then there is a Silver border and finally encased in gold. The numeric pattern is
engraved on the c opper on one side and the
t he “beeja” (seed) mantra or the prime syllable that connects
to the power of the Sun is inscribed on the other side or the back of the pattern on silver. This Yantra is
meant to be worn as a pendant and it must lie between the breasts.

The prime power of all planets lie with the Sun. Sun signifies light and good while Saturn signifies
darkness and all that is considered as bad. The subtlety of this theory goes to the root cause of all that is
considered bad that evil was created by God in order to save the good. Evil is also a creation of God. A
blind man has no idea of light as he/she has never experienced it.

Unless one experiences the bad, there is no distinction between the two. .It is most recommended for
those with weak, afflicted or debilitated Sun. It is also highly beneficial for those who are not enjoying a
good level of success in life. It recommended for all.

Jupiter Yantra
Just as each planet has a mantra, a special sound energy; there is special energy pattern for each planet,
a Yantra. The Yantra is a special geometric design, which is the visible form, the energy body, of the
mantra, and the planet to which it corresponds. Yantras sometimes supplement the power of mantras
and can become as strong as the mantras themselves. If a mantra is t he invisible driving force, the
Yantra is the visible means to gain power and wealth, ward off evil and illnesses, nullify the ill effects of 
material existence, bring you to the path of virtue and fortune, enhance your capabilities - and bless you
with almost any material comfort or spiritual benefit you desire.

Place Jupiter Yantra on the altar, recite the mantra 108 times while gazing at the image on Thursdays. It
can also be used during Jupiter dashas. Jupiter Yantra can be placed on a Northeast wall and we feel the
difference in our life. It brings joy, helps in concentrating and also helps in fertility. It is good for people
suffering from diabetes, liver and gallbladder problems, hip disorders and skin diseases.

The Jupiter Yantra has Jupiter’s numeric pattern engraved on it. This numeric sequence relates
specifically to the magic square of the number five. The numbers add up to 27 for each column, and 81
for the total. The reverse side of the Jupiter Yantra has the planetary symbol of Jupiter engraved on it.

The Yantra ships with a Silver Chain in a Velvet Pouch. All instructions for energizing the Yantra, along

Moon Yantra
It is easy to discard Chandra or Moon as an insignificant planet in respect to strong malefic
planet like Saturn or great benefic such as Jupiter. But this very potent yet subtle energy
energ y of Moon
creates the perfect mind of a mortal without which
whic h the purpose of being a human being is lost.

Moon is affected easily when in contact with Saturn, Rahu or Ketu. The mind of the person
becomes clouded with a sense of doom unless Moon is in its own house or sign of exaltation.
Even when it is in comfortable locations, some of its moon shine is lost. Moon is our capacity to
be happy, as a ruler of the mind it is our gateway to the finer feelings in life.

This Moon Yantra is essentially beneficial for people with debilitated or afflicted Moon by
either, co-habitation or aspect of Saturn, Rahu or Ketu. Moon suffers the most and so does the
person whose chart has this misfortune.

This Yantra stays more energized in combination with Regular Practice of Chandi Path (The
glory of Durga is known from the ancient treatise of  Markandeyo Purana. It is known as Devi 
Mahatmyam or Durga Saptasati and was written in 700 slokas. Devi Durga was generated and
empowered by the unification process of all the power of the gods and destroyed the demons who had
dislodged them from their divine abode.

Devi Chandi is also the image of the eternal mother who in her different forms killed various demons like
Mahishasur, Shumbh & Nishumbh, Raktabeej, Chando, Mundo, Dhumrolochana and their army and
saved the Devas from destruction. Chandi is Durga at her most terrifying image, there is nothing that can
be victorious against it. It is said that these slokas are powerful Mantras against all evils.

We ourselves generate negative energy and suffer from tension and fatigue. This fatigue due to the
struggle for existence has chain reaction at our domestic front where family starts to squirm under the
pressure of negative vibes. Ultimately, peace and harmony are lost when our professional front
becomes shaky and shows signs of decline.

The world is a huge reservoir where there are millions of souls who generate this negative energy
unconsciously. The random activities create chaos in and around us. While there is effort to eliminate
the same but the veil of maya (Illusory world) causes delusion and we fall prey to wrong decisions.

There can be real living enemies or there can be negative factors in our minds that can become our
enemies detrimental for our development or there can be negative powers that work against us due to
our interaction with other mortals. Instances of enmity, rivalry and unavoidable obstacles are regular
phenomena of human existence. While we try our level best to overcome them but a lot of energy and
time goes into this effort. It would not be wrong or false to conclude that we waste a tremendous
amount of life force in fighting these shadows. The end result is never perfect and we go from one
obstacle to the other.

Devi Mahatmaya or Durga Saptasati or the Chandi is divided into 13 Chapters and consists of 700 slokas
or mantras. Recitation of these slokas is known as Chandi Paath and has been recited and known to
combat every kind of enmity and adversity, from ages forgotten. It has been used as the most powerful
weapon by the Devas (gods) and mortals alike.) . The power loss of this luminary is made up and it
starts generating its potential effects in the life of the person and brings in happiness and
optimism.
This Yantra is crafted as a 1 inch diameter silver locket with a 3 carat natural white pearl in a
perfect astrological setting. The front face of the locket has the planetary symbol of Moon while
the reverse is engraved with the numeric energy pattern of the Moon. This numeric sequence
relates specifically to the magic square of the number two. The numbers add up to 18 for each
column, and 54 for the total.

Chandi Path
The power of evil is so great that even gods are unable to combat it single handed. It is only
through the united effort of divinity in totality that it can be defeated. The name Chandi is one of 
the many names of goddess Durga.

The glory of Durga is known from t he ancient treatise of Markandeyo Purana. It is known as Devi

Shri Yantra
Installing a Shree Yantra in one's home or at the place of work will protect from all Vastu deficiencies. It
is most powerful device to balance Yin and Yang energies around us(as attempted in Fengshui
protections). It purifies the environment and it helps crating wealth and prosperity not only for the
individual but also in the entire environment surrounding the individual. This is not just a myth  – it's a
tried and tested process.

Shree is the personification of Goddess Lakshmi herself. The symbol of the Goddess of bounty & plenty.
Since ancient times, it has been a common practice to install a S hree Yantra at the gate of all Hindu
temples. This Yantra is said to possess the powers to remove all negative vibrations and energies from
the environment. Meditating on the Shree Yantra harmonizes and optimizes all legitimate goals in our
life.
It is the most powerful geometrical Yantra for peace & prosperity. Its design is based on
intersection of nine triangles. Four of these triangles point u pward and five downward. The four
upward pointing triangles are the Shiva triangle (Male or Yang forces) and five downward
pointing triangles are Shakti or Durga triangles (female or Yin forces). A co mbination of these
nine triangles makes Shree Yantra the most dynamic of all Yantras.

For best results, we will recommend two Shree Yantras, one for home and one for work place.
Five minutes meditation on Shree Yantra with the recommended mantra everyday will do
wonders to increase all round wealth and prosperity.

Shri Yantra Pendant

God and His energy are inseparable; the concept of the power and the powerful comes to the forefront
once again, and it is so apt while describing the significance of the Shree Yantra. The geometrical pattern
of this Yantra is explanation in itself. Its design is based on intersection of nine triangles. Four of these
triangles point upward and five downward. The four upward pointing triangles are the Shiva triangle
(Male or Yang forces) and five downward pointing triangles are Shakti or Durga triangles (female or Yin
forces). A combination of these nine triangles makes Shree Yantra the most dynamic of all Yantras, and
the complete symbol of the power and the powerful.

The ancient scriptures of Brihadaranyaka Upanishad says

“He was alone,

he did not enjoy,
one alone does not enjoy,
He desired a second,
and became like a man and woman in close embrace.”

This is the concept of the Shree Yantra, a uniting and harmonizing device where the male and female
energy is taken into the higher level of desire and union.
It is a device that protects man  – woman relationship among many other things and dates back to the
concept of human’s becoming a social animal rather than just living creature .

Vaastu Therapy
"Vaastu" translates to building. It may mean habitat. The building stands upon the earth and as such this
makes it a permanent fixture perpetually subject to the rays of the sun upon it in a certain manner. The
study of Vaastu is a systematic science that deals with the geological impact of this planet upon earth.
VAASTU THERAPY "Vaastu" translates to building. It may mean habitat. The building stands upon the
earth and as such this makes it a permanent fixture perpetually subject to the rays of the sun upon it in
a certain manner. The study of Vaastu is a systematic science that deals with the geological impact of 
this planet upon earth.

This is an ancient science that pertained to construction of houses. In Bhavisyottara Purana, an

interesting epic portraying future, stressed upon the fact that every living mortal should have a house
and that it should be perfect or ideal for residence. It also states that the inhabitants of the house can
improve or perpetuate harmony and prosperity by certain rituals and ceremonies. Sages in the ancient
referred to Vaastu as a means of human welfare. It has been practiced since ancient times and according
to historians this genre of science developed during the period of 6000- 3000BC.

When we consider a building, the positive and negative vibes felt within it has direct connection with
the geological impact on it. The residents feel the vibes which permeate into t heir life and life style.

It has been found that houses constructed with as per Vaastu specifications become an abode of joy and
harmony. It is the residents’ state of minds and their progress in life that speaks of their Vaastu perfect
habitat.

The rays of the Sun are our life force and it is in constant supply through Sun and Moon. All other
planets shine in Sun’s rays. Though S un is a malefic but it is our basic source of life. It is fiery in nature
and its radiating heat can burn and destroy, on the other hand it can make flowers bloom. There is a
need to understand the subtlety of moderation that ultimately produces the best result. Houses built
casually may be Vaastu perfect by chance but mostly it is found that it is moderate. The result of this on
the residents is that they lead a mediocre life. While it is mostly possible to make Vaastu correction to
an already existing building, it is also possible to reduce negative energy generated by a vaastu
imperfect habitat.

Articles of Faith & Devotion

Articles of faith and Devotion are simple items that elevate the human mind above the level of 
commotion of the world. There is great peace in calling and calling itself builds confidence to pursue the
path of devotion to a larger degree.

As per the scriptures of Ramayana, the significance behind the Rama incarnation was pre ordained.
Vishnu was cursed by a certain powerful Sage that he would have to spend a longtime as a mortal on
this earth and be separated from his wife. Hence Rama’s life is depicted in this manner in the epic
Ramayana. In this context Hanumaan was the protector who made Rama and Sita’s reunion possible. It
is said that Rama was a Manglik and it was Hanumaan’s intervention that made their reunion possible.

It is another matter that Rama needed no help, as He was a full Avatar or incarnation of Vishnu, but
even Gods are subject to devotee’s anger, despair and sorro w.

The myth that depicts the death of the wife of a sage at t he hands of Vishnu also portrays penitent
Vishnu waiting for the particular sage and face whatever his anger or sorrow declared as his own fate.

Rama used the image of a monkey simply to determine the power of devotion. Here and again it was
Hanumaan who saved Lakshmana, Rama’s brother from death in the hands of Indrajeet, son of the
Demon king Ravana.
Hanumaan-ji is the ruling deity of Mars and all of us need to harmonize our Martian energy in order to
get the maximum benefit out of its forceful energy. Not only Hanumanji; you can also worship different
deities as per your faith and devotion.

Gem Therapy
GEMS THERAPY The basic principal of gem therapy is simple. If a planet is weak and is also beneficial and
auspicious in the chart, then such a planet should be strengthened by gems of that planet.

Each astrological planet is associated with a particular gem(s). The Bhashma of Gems (powder extract) is
extensively used in Ayurveda for its medicinal properties. For astrological purposes, the gem is
embedded in the ring or pendant in such a manner that the bottom is open, allowing the gemstone to
touch the body (Diamond being an exception). Varahmihir, the author of ancient astrological text, Brihat
Samhita, suggests that a gem having a good luster, pure and c lear-color and without flaws ensures good
luck and protection.

There are two theories on the use of gemstone for astrological purpose. The first is based on the
principle of enhancing a particular ray or color effect where the gemstone acts like an amplifier. The
origin of this idea can be traced back to the Rig-Veda, where humans are advised to use the seven gems
to gather the rays of the Sun onto our body. The second theory envisages that the gemstone acts like
cosmic filter, preventing harmful rays from affecting our bodies. Diseases are caused in t he body due to
deficiencies and the use of certain gemstone supplement the deficiencies, which results in improvement
of health, mood and life force.

Selection of a particular gemstone for vedic astrological remedy is a complex process and only a
competent astrologer is capable of making the right choice. Inappropriate use of gemstone is known to
have caused harmful side effects. Gem should be of good qualities and without flaws.

Information on Gem Stone Therapy This section provides some very basic and fundamental facts on
Gem Stone Therapy , as used in Vedic Astrology.

Gem Stone Therapy

The science of use of astrology gems and stones for medicinal and astrological purposes is known as
Gem Stone Therapy . According to Varahamihir, the author of the classical text B rihat Samhita, a gem
having a good luster, pure and clean color and no flaws ensures good luck and protection. He however
warns that Gem stones with flaws can bring disaster.

here are two popular theories on the use of gemstones for astrological purposes, as a therapeutic
measure. The first, sanctioned by the R ig-Veda advises the use of seven gems to capture the visible
spectrum in the rays of the sun. The second theory, though of unknown origin, is today more popular. It
states that gems are cosmic filters that disallow particular vibrations from causing harm. We prefer to
follow the traditional Vedic prescriptions for astrological Gem Therapy.
Astrological Gem Stone Therapy is prescribed on two bases  – one long-term and the other short-term.
The gemstones used for the long-term (entire life) are known as Fortune Stones while those that are use
for the shorter-term or temporary periods for providing relief during period of distress are known as
Problem Area.

According to Vedic Astrology, gemstones can be classified into three types:

01. Panch Ratna (Five gems)

Panch Ratna or Five Jewels Vedic Astrology considers five elemental forms of existence. Each of 
these five elements have a gemstone associated with it.

These are:

Element Gem Stone Indian Name Substitute

Fire (Agni) Ruby Manik Brown Tourmaline

Water (Jala) Pearl Moti

Earth (Prithvi) Emerald Panna Berly

Air (Vayu) Diamond Heera White Sapphire

Ether (Aakash) Blue Sapphire Neelam Amethyst

02. Sapta Ratna (Seven gems)

Sapta Ratna or Seven Jewels

The seven planets from Sun to Saturn represent the seven colours of visible light that lead
to creation.

The Rig-Veda advises use of seven gemstones for capturing the rays of the sun:

03. Nav Ratna or Nine Jewels

The nine planets, including Rahu & Ketu (the North and South nodes of Moon) each have
a representative gemstone:

The following topic is of particular interest in the matter of Astrological Gem Therapy:
Finger for Wearing Gems:
Vedic Astrology lays down very strict rules for the finger on which a Gemstone can be worn.
The index finger, known as the Tarjani, is considered very inauspicious. It is the finger for
expression of anger. Each of the four elements, Fire, Earth, Water and Wind/Air, are associated
with each of the four fingers on our hand, (the thumb is not considered) and this in turn dictates
the choice of finger for wearing a given gemstone.

The following table gives the information about the relationship between planets, gemstones and
the fingers on which the same are to be worn.

Planet GemStone Finger Metal

Sun Ruby Fore Finger (Chupudu Velu) Gold
Moon Pearl Ring or Fore finger (Ungaram Silver
Velu, Chupudu Velu)
Mars Red Coral Ring (Ungaram Velu) Gold/Silver
Mercury Emerald Little (Chitikina Velu) Gold
Jupiter Yellow Sapphire Fore Finger (Chupudu Velu) Gold
Venus Diamond Middle (Right hand Madya Velu) Gold
Saturn Blue Sapphire Middle (Left Hand Madya Velu) Gold
Rahu Hessonite Middle (Left Hand Madya Velu) Silver
Ketu Cat's Eye Middle (Right Hand Madya Velu) Gold

WHAT YOU SHOULD CONSIDER?

Beware of abnormally low prices of precious stones advertised anywhere. They are likely to be
ordinary stones that have been chemically colored in a laboratory and are NOT suitable or
effective as astrological remedies.

* Remember precious stones are called so because they are precious and naturally be more
expensive than ordinary stones.

Insist on test certificates from recognized government testing laboratory and not from any
private testing establishment.

Insist on actual weight of the stone to be c ertified by the testing laboratory.

Do not make the common mistake of accepting the weight of the stone as the total weight of 
the ring.

Insist on astrologers’ recommendation whether a particular gemstone is suitable for you as per
your natal chart. A gemstone is the naturally occurring crystalline form of a mineral, which is
desirable for its beauty, values in its rarity and durable enough to be enjoyed for generations.

Mantra
What is a Mantra?
A mantra is composed of psychically potent sound syllables that are c apable of influencing the human
system both physically and spiritually. They can excite t he emotions and give suggestion to t he mind.
They influence both the one who chants them and the one hears them. The word mantra comes from
the Sanskrit word Mantrana, which means advice or suggestions. According to the Upanishads, the
original abode of the mantra was the "Parma Akesh" or primeval ether, the eternal and immutable
substratum of the universe.

How does a Mantra work?

A mantra is also an energy field composed of certain frequencies that have a pattern of their own and a
vibration field that creates different intonation. These frequencies and the sympathetic overtones
generated by them influence our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous, which are spread in a fine
neural network through our internal o rgans in the body. The sympathetic response generates the Nero-
motor response and influences two hemisphere of the human cerebral cortex.

Effect of Mantras

Mantra practice involves the left hemisphere of t he brain and is therefore effective in increasing positive
emotions. The intonation and melody, which are the essential parts of Mantras, remove negative
emotions. In association with a Yantra or a picture of a deity - the mantra also provides the right
hemisphere with a concrete visual image of the object of emotional attention or "Bhakti" - devotion.

This is the way mantra affects the emotional self. Spiritual sounds may be poems, chants, prayers or
hymns all create emotional frequencies and open new dimensions in o ur consciousness. The practice of 
Mantra is more than a suggestion or an idea. It is a means of getting in touch with our inner self. This is
the essence of "Bhakti Yoga" - which is the simplest and the most effective way by which we can
connect to the supreme and infinite consciousness.

Elements

Every mantra has six elements: -

 'Rishi' or The Seer

 'Raga' or The Melody
 'Devta' or The Presiding Deity
 'Bija' or The Seed Sound
 'Shakti' or The Power
 'Kilaka' or The Pillar

Rishi - Seers
The intensions of the Mantra worshipper or "Mantra Shadak " are his or her responsibility. One
must thus be clear about why one picks up this tool of Mantra meditation. Good or bad Karmas
are categorized according to the effect they create inside and outside the individual, who should
be prepared to acknowledge responsibility for the same.

Raga - Melody
The raga is comparable to a western melody line - a sound or sequence of single sounds, without
harmony. When chanting a Mantra, it is extremely important not to change the raga and its key,
because the rate of vibration on which the sound is based on integral part of the Mantra.

Devta - Presiding Deity

The Devta is the presiding deity of the mantra. The informing powers a very personal aspect of 
God. It is the wisdom that comes from a higher source and is like a single beam of sunlight. One
beam that is singled out and given a name so that the disciple can develop a personal relationship
with and worship on aspect of God that he or she can understand and experience.
Bija - Seer Sound
Each mantra has a Bija or seed. This represents the sound string defined by the Seers as being the
repository of auditory energy sources. The form and content of the Bija have been handed down
from the ages. The Bija gives the mantra in which it is used, its special power of self -generation
and effects. Just as within a seed is hidden within tree, so too, the energy of the mantra is resident
in the seed on which it is based. This helps the mantra to manifest itself into spiritual
consciousness.

Shakti - The Power

The power, the consciousness, within the mantra is 'Shakti' - the Divine Mother, the goddess of 
the spoken word. The male aspect of the God is energy in a state of equilibrium; the female
aspect is the dynamic energy, which manifests as Creation. This Energy of God is the source o f 
all created beings. In the mantra this energy is present in a pure form. The potency of the mantra
is realized through repetitions, until the individual chanting th e same, feels the presence of God.
This is a spiritual experience, which the Mantras help to bring about.

Kilaka - The Pillar

The Kilaka is at first, the driving force, the persistence and will power that the discipline needs to
pursue the Mantra. But when the power of the Mantra begins to take on a self generating
"flywheel motion", the Kilaka becomes a very fine thread joining the discipline to the mantra, to
the power of the mantra, to the Guru and to the deity, until all are manifest as one.

Ten Karmas

In Tantra, there are ten categories of actions (Karmas) that a mantra can accomplish. These ten
categories cover all aspects of human desires, good and bad and include all the ways that mantra can be
used.

The intensions of the Mantra worshipper or "Mantra Shadak" are his or her responsibility. One must
thus be clear about why one picks up this tool of Mantra meditation. Good or bad Karmas are
categorized according to the effect they create inside and outside the individual, who should be
prepared to acknowledge responsibility for the same.

1. Santi (Peaceful) Karma: Mantras that free one from disease, psychological problems, fears, illusions
and worldly and environmental troubles; and mantra done without any desire for reward, power or
attachment.

2. Istambhan Karma: Mantras used to stop the movement of any living thing or inanimate object in
nature.
3. Mohan Karma: Mantra used to attract a man, woman or animal. Mesmerism and hypnotism come
under this category. Also known as SAMMOHAN.

4. Uchchatan Karma: Mantras used to disturb the mental equilibrium of any living being. Such a mantra
increase doubt, uncertainty, fear and delusion in the person on whom the same is directed.

5. Vashikaran Karma: Mantras used to enslave somebody. The one on whom the mantra is used, loses
his own discrimination and will power and become like a puppet. Vashikaran means controlling the
consciousness of the one on whom the mantra is used. (Vash = control, karan = doing.)

6. Akarshan Karma: Mantras used to attract somebody who is living at a distant place.

7. Jrambhan Karma: Mantras used to change behavior patterns so that the one on whom the mantra is
used starts acting the way the one using the mantra.

8. Vidweshan Karma: Mantras used to create opposition between two individuals. This kind of mantra
creates anger, hatred, jealousy and aggression in both individuals towards each other. With others, their
behavior remain as usual; it only changes with the one whom the user of the mantra chooses and the
result is animosity.

9. Maran Karma: Mantras used to kill somebody. This kind o f use of mantra brings instantaneous death
without any physical ailment of disorder.

10. Pushti Karma: Mantra used to increase one's own or another's wealth, name, fame, goodwill, social
status, power etc. Also known as Paustik.

Mantra Recitation

The attitude of an aspirant plays an important role on Mantra recitation & worship. Mantra is
energy. It can be used for either good or bad purposes. One can compare this with Fire - which is
pure energy; it can cook our food to sustain us and nourishes us. It can also burn us and kill us.

If a Sadhak (devotee) is proactive in mantra recitation for personal spiritual growth, it helps
him/her to evolve, but if the mantra is practiced to help others, it serves a double purpose. It
helps both the persons for whom mantra is recited and it also helps the person, who is reciting
the mantra. On the other hand, if the mantra is used to harm somebody, the person who recites it
will also not escape the harmful effects of the mantra. So it is important for an inspiring mantra
worshipper to understand the prerequisites and requisites of mantra worship.

Yoga and its different poses(asana)

Yoga books tell us that Yoga, as we all know, is aimed to unite the mind, the body, and the spirit. Yogis
view that the mind and the body are one and that if it is given the right yoga kit and tools and taken to
the right environment, it can find harmony and heal it. Yoga therefore is considered therapeutic. It helps
you become more aware of your body's posture, alignment and patterns of movement. It makes the
body more flexible and helps you relax even in the midst of a stress stricken environment. This is one of 
the foremost reasons why people want to start Practicing Yoga - to feel fitter, be more energetic, and be
happier and peaceful.

Yoga is a science that has been practiced for thousands of years. It is consists of Ancient Theories,
observations and principles about the mind and body connection which is now being proven by modern
medicine. Substantial research has been conducted to look at the Health Benefits of Yoga - from the
Yoga Postures (Asanas), Yoga Breathing (Pranayama), and Meditation. The information on Yoga Poses &
Benefits is grouped into three categories-physiological, psychological, biochemical effects. Furthermore,
scientists have laid these results against the benefits of regular exercise.

Yoga practice is not a substitute for medical care. The emphasis is on prevention of illness by
maintaining balance within the mind and body. S till, many practitioners believe that yoga has yielded
positive physiological changes for them. For example, studies have shown that yoga practice has been
credited with easing of complaints including back pain, stress, migraine, and insomnia.
In addition, some have found Yoga helpful in reducing high blood pressure, pulse rates, and joint pain,
and increasing range of movement. People who practice Yoga regularly often cite such benefits as
increased vitality, greater emotional stability, improved concentration, better muscle tone and posture,
and weight loss. However, if you are overweight or suffer from high blood pressure, arthritis, or spinal
disk injuries, it's a good idea to check with t he doctor before trying yoga.

from a Sanskrit term meaning to join together, it promotes the union of the human soul with the
universal spirit.

Breathing
Breathing is considered very important in Yoga. It is believed that Prana - a life energy, flows through a
human body and it provides vitality to it. Breathing is c onsidered as a physical manifestation of Prana.
Therefore, if one has control over ones breath then that person controls his or her energy. Yoga poses
are generally done with deep, diaphragmatic breathing. This increases oxygen flow to the brain and
body, easing stress and fatigue, and boosting energy.

Meditation
Meditation is another component of yoga, and many enthusiasts rely on yoga breathing as an aid to
reaching a deep meditative state. Meditation quiets the mind, and creates a profound feeling of 
 relaxation that can carry over into the whole day. In Yogic world, meditation is compared to a vocation
for the mind, and it is believed that daily practice can reduce feelings of anger, fear and depression.

Based on your birth chart, and the position of planets, we'll compute the planets that need to be
harmonized for you and give you your unique mantra for the current period. And just like the planetary
positions constantly change, so does your unique mantra. You need to come back at the end of your
mantra's period, for your next mantra.

What is Meditation all about? How to Meditate

Purpose of Meditation Your Personalized Mantra

Meditation is a time-tested technique to concentrate
our energies. Normally, we waste our energies. Not
only are they squandered in all directions by the
tornado of exterior impressions, but also even when we
manage to shut doors and windows, we find chaos
within ourselves.
The powers of the mind are like rays of dissipated
light-when they are concentrated they illuminate. This
is our only means of knowledge. The purpose of  Viswanadhajyothirnilayam through its Karma Index
Meditation is to bring about a complete harmony
between our Mind, Body and Soul.
Once this harmony is achieved, we are then in a
position as an individual to achieve the "Infinite
Potential" for action that lies within every human
being.
Meditation helps us to achieve a state of total
awareness through the following six practices as per
Vedic philosophy.
1. Samia Mental quietude and subduing of 
passions
2. Dama Self restraint and the subjugation of 
the five sense organs, the five
organs of action and the four
internal organs
3. Uparati Complete cessation of the
perceiving and acting sense faculty
4. Titiksha Endurance and patience (the power
Like any other science, Astrology has its technology. It
has its theoretical knowledge and its practical
application. Just as physical science uncovers new
forms of energy in the outer world, like electric or
nuclear forces, astrology and Yogic sciences can
connect us with new forms of energy in the mind and
deeper consciousness.
technology computes the effects of each planet on an
individual on a particular day from the individual's birth
chart and determines which planets are to be
strengthened for the day.
As per Vedic Astrology, there are many ways to balance
and heal the planetary influences in our life. The most
powerful and effective method to heal and balance the
planetary influences is to meditate by chanting or by
listening to the mantra of the specific planets which
need to be balanced for the particular day.
Viswanadha Jyothirnilayam has specially created
separate music for each of the seed Mantras as
specified in Vedic Astrology. A r ecognized Vedic
musician chants the seed mantra, to the
accompaniment of appropriate music. The music is
composed by a renowned classical musician using the
specific Classical Raga or Melody, which is in harmony
with the nature of the specific planet.

opens up our inner vision.

offline. 4. When you start your session, concentrate on
the image as it appears on the screen. 5. Start a simple
breathing exercise like you would in a gym during your
workout. a) Inhale through one nostril by keeping the
other nostril closed with your fingers while OM is being
chanted. That will be in the first part of the seed
Mantra. b) Hold your breath till the second part of the
seed Mantra starts. c) Exhale through the opposite
nostril as the second part of the seed Mantra gets
chanted. d) Repeat this whole cycle of breathing
exercise 4 to 5 times synchronizing with the Mantra as
explained in the previous steps. This will complete the
breathing exercise, which is called Pranayam. You are
now in a perfect mental state to concentrate and to
continue your meditation. e) Just concentrate now on
the image and continue your normal breathing. 6. Try
to completely shut yourself from all external worries
and thoughts. However, thoughts will come initially--
both good and bad ones-however, this is very natural.
Do not make any special efforts to drive away thoughts
away, but just concentrate on the image, and c hant the
mantra within your own mind and try to synchronize
your own chant with our Mantra as it is being chanted.
7. Thoughts will come and go, and as your practice gets
better, as will your concentration and synchronization.
The effectiveness of your meditation will increase
along with this progress. 8. We recommend that you
practice this initially for a period of 15 minutes. As you
get more tuned, increase it to a period of 25 minutes.
Those who already practice meditation and are
experienced at it should follow their own methods to
synchronize with the Mantra.
How to choose the Planets to Meditate for

The condition of a fast moving planet will usually

change within a few hours. The effect of slow moving

example, may last up to 6 months.

When an individual has mastered all these 6 stages of 

Meditation, he achieves the perfect state of awareness
and true knowledge. This in summary is the essence of 
the Yoga of Knowledge (Jnyan) as stated in the
Bhagavad Gita.

This is not an easy path. We may take a "whole life" or

several births to reach this state of perfect knowledge
or Enlightenment or Salvation. The important thing is
that we in Cyber Astro believe that we must commence
this journey in this life itself, and it is never too late to
begin this journey. One doesn't have to be a spiritual
leader or a priest or an ascetic to start this journe y.
In this Age of Aquarius, every human being will
initiate this journey to discover his/her own inner self 
irrespective of caste, creed or religion.

Stages of Yoga and Hatha-Yoga

In traditional yoga there are eight stages in reaching a blissful state. Some of these stages have become
popular forms of yoga. One of the most familiar is hatha-yoga, which emphasizes poses and breathing
technique. Good health is the goal in hatha-yoga.

Practice makes man perfect but practicing it the right way does wonder. We take you to the world of 
Yoga poses (asanas) - A step by step guide to make it easier for you. Explore the Yoga poses from the
basic to the extreme.

CORPSE POSE (SAVASANA)

The Corpse Pose or Savasana is the classic relaxation

pose, practiced before each session, between asanas
and in Final Relaxation.(Details for Final Relaxation
Your yoga practice will help to be more in touch
with your body, able to recognize tension and
relaxation and thus to bring them under your
conscious control. At the end of session of asanas,
you should spend at least ten minutes in Final
Relaxation. During this time, you relax each part
of the body in turn. But in order to experience
relaxation, you must first experience tension.
Working up from the feet, as shown below, you
first tense and lift each part, then drop (but don't
place) it down. Now let your mind travel
throughout the body, commanding each part to
relax. Let yourself go. Sink deep into the quiet
pool of the mind. To bring your consciousness
back to your body, gently move your fingers and
toes, take a deep breath and as your exhale, sit up.
EASY POSE (SUKHASANA)
After relaxing in the Corpse Pose for a few
minutes, come up and sit in the Easy Pose,
Sukhasana, for pranayama and the neck,
shoulder and eye exercises. This asana is one of 
the classic meditative poses, which help to
straighten the spine, slow the metabolism and
still the mind.
If you find that holding the pose is
uncomfortable, place a folded blanket under
the back of your buttocks. In order to stretch
the leg muscles evenly, be sure to alternate
which leg you place on top in the posture.
When you are ready, substitute the Half Lotus
or Lotus at this point.

Autosuggestion
After practicing the sequence shown, visualize
your body in your mind's eye, and repeat this
simple formula mentally: "I relax the toes, I relax
the toes. The toes are relaxed. I relax the calves, I
relax the calves. The calves are relaxed." Continue
on up the body, applying the formula to each part
along the way - the stomach, lungs, heart, jaw,
scalp, brain, and soon. Feel a wave of relaxation
rising up your body as you guide your awareness
through each part. Each time you inhale, feel a
wave of Oxygen flowing down to your feet; each
time you exhale, feel the tension flowing out of 
your body, leaving your mind like a deep, still
lake, without a ripple. Now dive deep into the
center of this lake, deep within yourself, and
experience your true nature.)

It looks deceptively simple, but it is in fact one of the

most difficult asanas to do well and one, which
changes and develops with practice. At the end of an
asana session in your Corpse Pose will be more
complete than at the beginning because the other
asanas will have progressively stretched and relaxed
your muscles. When you first lie down, look to see that
you are lying symmetrically as symmetry provides
proper space for all parts to relax. Now start to work in
the pose. Rotate your legs in and out, then let them
fall gently out to the sides. Do the same with your
arms. Rotate the spine by turning your head from side
to side to center it. Then stretching yourself out, as
though someone were pulling your head away from
your feet, your shoulders down and away from your
neck your legs down and away from your pelvis. Let
gravity embrace you. Feel your weight pulling you
deeper into relaxation, melting your body into the
floor. Breathe deeply and slowly from abdomen
(right), riding up and down on the breath, sinking
deeper with each exhalation. Feel how your abdomen
swells and falls. Many important physiological changes
are taking place, reducing the bodies energy's loss,
removing stress, lowering your respiration and pulse
rate, and resting the whole system. As you enter deep
relaxation, you will feel your mind grow clear and
detached.

FISH (MATSYASANA) Matsya: THE FORWARD BEND

The fish, was one of the incarnations of the Hindu God (PASCHIMOTHANASANA):
Vishnu, who assumed this form to save the world from
the Flood. The Fish Pose Matsyasana, is the counter
pose to the Shoulder stand and must always be
practiced after it. Having stretched the neck and upper
spine in the Shoulderstand, Plough and Bridge, you
now compress them as you arch back, relieving
stiffness in your neck and shoulder muscles and
correcting any tendency to rounded shoulders.
Holding the pose exercises the chest, tones the nerves
of the neck and back, and ensures that the thyroid and
parathyroid glands obtain maximum benefit from the
Shoulder stand. It also expands the ribcage fully and so
aids deep breathing and increases your lung capacity.
You should remain in the pose for at least half the
amount of time that you spent in the Shoulderstand in
order to balance the stretch.
The Forward Bend or the
Paschimothanasana looks deceptively
simple. But it is the fact a very important
and demanding pose. The Sanskrit word
"paschima" means "the West", referring to
the back of the body, which is literally
stretched from the heels to the top of the
spine. Practicing this asana invigorates the
internal organs, reduce fat, and stimulates
the entire nervous system. Before holding
the pose, loosen up the body by inhaling and
coming back out of the position, then next
exhaling and going into it again, three times.
Don't try to bring your head to your knees as
this will curve the spine. Instead, aim to
bring the torso as far as possible, while
keeping the knees and spine straight.

THE COBRA (BHUJANGASANA) :
In Bhujangasana , the head and trunk arch
gracefully up, like a corba with its hood raised.
The spine receives a powerful backward stretch,
the surrounding musculature is strengthened and
the abdominal organs are toned up and massaged.
The pose is particularly effective for combating
menstrual irregularities and pain and relieving
constipation. Perform the asana in stages, as shown
below, visualizing the smooth, supple movement
of a snake as you slowly stretch your spine up and
backward, vertebra by vertebra. Keep your
shoulders down, your elbows tucked in to your
body, and your face relaxed in the pose. You may
find the full Cobra position difficult to achieve at
first, but in time your spine will become supple

With practice, you
can wrap your index
 fingers around your 
big toes and bring
 your elbows down to
to the floor, or 
stretch your arms out 
over your feet, as
shown right.
 In the position, breathe deeply, feeling
 yourself and advancing forward a little
more every time you exhale. Hold for three
or four deep breaths at first, gradually
increasing the number as you become
relaxed in the pose. When you release the
 position, reach forward as you come up.
THE LOCUST (SALABHASANA) :
Unlike most asanas, the Locust or Salabhasana
requires a sudden movement to get into the
pose. Its effects supplement those of the Cobra
but where the Cobra concentrates on the upper
half of the body, the Locust works mainly on the
lower half, strengthening the abdomen, lower
backs and legs. Like the other backward bends,
it manages the internal organs, ensuring
efficient functioning of the digestive system and
preventing constipation. To begin with, you
may only manage to raise your legs a few inches
off the floor - in fact, it is at this stage that the
pose most resembles a locust, tall in air. With
regular practice you will discover how to

THE CROW (KAKASANA):

This asana strikingly mimics the posture of a

cawing crow - with the body's weight supported on
the elbows and hands and the head thrust well
forward. One of the most valuable balancing
poses, the Crow or Kakasana is in fact relatively
easy to achieve, tough it may look advanced. The
secret is to lean far enough forward and to keep
your mind from wandering, focusing your
attention solely on keeping your balance.
Practicing the Crow will greatly strengthen your
wrists, arms and shoulders, improve your
concentration, and increase your breathing
capacity by expanding the chest.
THE HANDS TO FEET POSE (PADA
HASTASANA):
The Hands to Feet Pose or Pada Hastasana
gives many of the same benefits as the Forward
Bend - trimming the waist, restoring elasticity
to the spine, and stretching the ligaments of the
legs, especially the hamstrings. It also aids the
flow of blood to the brain. Once again, as in t he
Forward Bend, the purpose of the asanas is to
bend down as far as you can with your spine
and legs straight. Holding your toes and
bringing your head into the shins will follow
naturally when your back has become more
flexible. Breathe deeply in the position, and let
yourself fold a little further down with each
exhalation. To pull your chest in closer to your

DOMINATING PLANETS IN YOUR HOROSCOPE

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Sun

Usually the individual will do well in practicing meditation and yoga of knowledge to connect to the
higher self within. The main thing is to establish a sense of self-identity according to our inner nature as
pure consciousness. We must learn to discriminate between the lower self and the higher self. We
should trace the origin of the "I thought" to the Divine light within the heart.
Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Moon
Lunar energy is usually increased by devotional practices (Bhakti yoga). We should meditate upon a form
of the Divine particularly of the Goddess. We should strive to develop more peace, faith, receptivity,
openness and surrender to the Divine or truth. Usually lunar energy allies us with a spiritual or religious
tradition or group, but we should apply our faith with openness and truth not with emotional
attachment.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Mars

Mars is increased by the Yogas of knowledge and techniques by practices, which aim at the
development of energy and insight. Mars types like to work on themselves in a practical way through
physical practices or through mental methods like visualization and ritual. On a lower level, the martial
arts can be used to strengthen Mars energy; yet such methods may cater to a negative Mars influence
and bring about a seeking of power and prestige for the ego.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Mercury

Mercury energy is increased by the yoga of knowledge particularly by spiritual techniques, which
emphasize reason, discrimination, clear expression and objective perception. It often gives us the role of 
a teacher of these things. The practice of mantra is helpful as it the study of spiritual philosophies like
Vedanta or the learning of Sanskrit.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Jupiter

Jupiter directs us to the spiritual life generally and gives us the propensity for a broad and integral path,
combining knowledge, devotion, practices and service, as in the path of Raja Yoga. Its basic impulse is
towards devotion (faith), but from that it develops knowledge. Jupiter is more concerned with principle
and value than form, but often loves ceremonies and rituals. Jupiter gives enthusiasm, but it may be
temporary, if we do not fix it to a long-term purpose.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Venus

Venus related to Bhakti yoga or the yoga of devotion. It makes us receptive to Divine love, joy and
beauty, as we find in the stories of Radha and Krishna or in Sufi love poetry. It inclines us to chanting,
rituals, dance, devotional singing and visualizations. Generally, we are inclined to approach the Divine in
the form of a particular figure, teacher or deity, whom we love and serve. Venus also can give occult
knowledge or powers, like ability to see visions or to travel astrally, but can get us caught in the glamour
and illusion of the astral plane.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Saturn

Saturn required self-discipline, renunciation, surrender, detachment, objectivity and doing of goo d
karma - the yogas of knowledge and service. It is more co ncerned with practice than with theory and in
his higher form, is the silent sage. It requires inaction and letting go on our part. To cleanse the influence
of a negative Saturn, some form of karmic expiation may be required like prayer, atonement,
pilgrimages or giving of charity.
Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Rahu
RahuPeople with weak Rahu should avoid Yogas that open up to the astral plane, including the use of 
visualization, hypnosis and modern high tech yoga (using tapes videos). Devotion, surrender to the
Divine or Bhakti yoga is best as Rahu's influence makes discernment and meditation difficult. Some form
of psychic clearing, expiation or exorcism in extreme cases may be helpful. There should be an alliance
with a clear tradition and consistent discipline, the avoidance of wishful thinking, the seeking of 
experiences or the developing of occult powers.

Dominating Planet in your Horoscope : Ketu

Ketu is increased by the yoga of knowledge, the capacity for self-inquiry, much as under the Sun. it
causes us to seek to transcend time and the senses. Meditation on death is also helpful for developing
the higher yogic powers of Ketu.

VEDIC RITUALS :

Each planet has its representative deity and its specific form. Each deity has a certain color, particular
appearance, a unique vehicle (the animal it rides, signifying its underlining power). All the planetary
deities are regarded as male. This is because all the signs and constellation are regarded as female. The
planets are the forces (male), which work in the fields of signs (female). Planetary deities also have their
ruling deities (Adhidevta) and their overlords (Pratyadhidevta). These may be male of female according
to the nature of the planets.

“Astrological Yagnas” are the most powerful and potent astrological remedies either to fulfill
the cherished goals in our life or to avoid dangerous and fatal disasters in our life.” A
personalized Yagna is just like a specific medicine p rescribed by a physician for a particular
illness. When the problem is intense and when all the means to make it right has failed then we
could go for a personalized yagna, which is more effective since its emphasis is only on one
particular problem."

We believe would be of immense help not only to restore your faith and belief but also to fulfill
some of your wishes. The personalized yagna after much research would include the five
important aspects of life: health, wealth, marriage, removal of obstacles and children.

Kaal means Death. The person born under Kaal Sarpa Yoga passes through a lot of difficult phases
like death threatening situation. The Kaal Sarp Yog is formed when all the planets are present in
between Rahu and Ketu. According to Indian astrology, there are many types of Kaal Sarpa Yogas.
If all seven planets come between Rahu & Ketu then it is not good. The person who takes birth in
this Yoga faces different kind of problems and instability in life like disturbances in mind, loss in
business, family problems etc. A person, who has Kaal Sarpa Yoga in the horoscope always fear
from death, suffers from tensions and insecurity.

This Yoga is more dangerous than other malefic yoga. This Yoga affects a person till the age of 30
to 47 and sometimes throughout his/her life, it depends upon the position of Kaal Sarp Yoga in the
birth chart. So, it is important to find out the Kaalsarpa Yoga in the chart and which bhava (houses)
are affected. This is like a snake-ladder syndrome in life. Under this yoga a person can rise to a
high social and economic level and then can have sudden down fall from that high status.

It should be noted that the Kaalsarp Yoga is not always bad. It has the power to confer gains too.
All planets must fall between Rahu and Ketu.

Kaal Sarp Dosha Mala is designed to remove this dosha. Mala is made of an 11 mukhi Hanuman
rudraksha in the center with a large Hanuman silver locket yantra.

This yagna should be performed by people whose birth

chart shows that all the planets fall between Rahu and Ketu and is going through a lot of agonies in
life and life threatening incidents.

A successful marriage depends on two things: finding the right person and being the right person
Marriage is not just coming together of two individuals. There is much more to it. To sustain a
marriage it is important that there is effort from both sides than onl y a marriage can carry on. It is
important to find the right person at the right time. It is not only important for girls to get married
to the right person but it is equally important for a person to find one.

It is important to remember God when we are making an important decision of our life. A person
who wants to have a good married life and a suitable life partner prays to Mangla Gouri to help him
find a good match so, that he will find someone who would always be with him during his ups and
downs.

This mantra is attributed to Goddess Durga. The regular and continuous chant of this mantra by the
male section of the society helps them get a wife of their expectation. The use of rudraksha mala (A
beaded garland of the seeds of Eleocarpus Ganitrus Tree) while chanting is favorable.

problems and Mangla Dosha this is one of the most prescribed poojas. Devi is worshiped as
Mangla Gouri and pooja performed with shodasopacharas and namavali pooja.a man performs this

Katyaayni is the sixth form of Goddess Durga. Sage Katyaayan was the son of the great sage Kat.
Katyayan had observed rigorous penance and worship of "Bhagavati Paramba with a desire to get
paramba daughter. The wish was granted and she took birth as a daughter of Katyaayan and
therefore named as "Katyaayni". She has four hands. The top right hand is positioned in a gesture
of providing courage and the other hand is positioned in a gesture of rendering a boon. The top left
hand is holding a sword and the other holding a lotus. The Goddess is mounted on a lion and she is
worshiped on the sixth day of the Durga puja. If one worships the deity with a pure soul he attains
success in religion, wealth, passion and salvation. Disease, sorrow and fear are eliminated. Tripur
sundari.

The presiding Deity of Srichakra, Devi, is Known as Lalita Tripura Sundari. The goddess Tripura
Sundari in her aspect as Shodasi is represented as a sixteen-year-old girl, and is b elieved to embody
sixteen types of desire. Tripura Sundari, also called Shodashi, Lalita and Rajarajeshvari. Tripura
Sundari, also called Shodashi, Lalita and Rajarajeshvari, is one of the group of ten goddesses of 
hindu belief and these goddesses are collectively called mahavidyas.

The Shodasi Tantra, a treatise on the Tantra, describes Tripura Sundari as "the radiant light in the
eyes of Shiva". She is described as being of dusky color, and is depicted in an intimate position
with an aspect of Shiva. The couple are shown on a bed, a throne, or a pedestal resting on the
significant male gods of Hinduism like Brahma,Vishnu ,Rudra Nd Indra.

Kashmiris are the foremost in worship of Tripura Sundari, who are the only ones who remember
the hymn to Tripura Sundari, Pancastavi in entirety.Tripura Sundari is described in great detail as
extremely attractive, beautiful, and erotically inclined.The Lalitha Sah asranama details her charms
from head to foot, and the most part of the Saundaryalahari is similarly occupied with her attractive
appearance. She is often said to give desire and to suffuse the creation with desire. The
Saundaryalahari also states that a worn-out old man, ugly and sluggish in the arts of love, can be
restored to sexual attractiveness and vigor by her glance. The description of a beautiful woman,
part by part, in the process of her arraying herself (shringar), was an established poetic form in
Indian classical literature.

The several names that associate or identify her with the female sexual organ in her thousand-name
hymn in the Vamakeshvara Tantra also suggest the erotic character of the goddess.The Tripura
Sundari Ashtakam by Adi Shankaracharya describes her as a Mother, her nourishing breasts akin to
mountain peaks that give birth to rivers. She is described wearing a blue dress with red spots,
holding a pot of honey, her eyes quivering with intoxication.

This yagna is especially performed by girls who might be having some problem regarding
marriage. Even whe a girl has all the virtues she might not be getting a suitable partner or might be
having some astrological problem, at such times katyaa yni yagna can be performed.

“I offer my obeisance to Shree Mangala, the god of the planet Mars, who was born from the
womb of the earth goddess. His brilliant effulgence is like that of lightning, and he appears as
a youth carrying a spear in his hand."

In match making most famous and sadistic problem is Mangal Dosh. In reality, it is not Mangal
Dosh but it is called Sumanglik dosha. It means problem in auspicious events of marriage life. In
other words, stoppage in something auspicious or good work is known as Mangal Dosh. This dosh
is known as a very big problem in married life. We live in a modern world but there are certain
things that we still believe in and one of them is marriage between two individuals. Let us have a
look at what does manglik exactly mean and what are its effects?

Mars holds a very important part in our horoscope -it is the planet of action. There are just handful
of people who possesses a correct balance of Martian energy. On the positive front Mars gives us
energy, will power, self-confidence and motivation but this could also lead to conflict, competition
and domination. Mars indicates premature death; and loss of partner, particularly so when Mars is
afflicted by "Kuja Dosha". This affliction of Mars in a chart commonly makes the horoscope to be
known as a Manglik horoscope. It is caused by placement of Mars in the 1st, 4th, 7th, 8th, 12th
house of the natal chart.

This condition is believed by some to be devastating for marriage, causing discomfort and tension
in relationship, leading to separation and divorce, and in some cases, it is believed to cause
untimely death of one spouse. This is attributed to the "fiery" nature of this planet. If two mangliks
marry, the negative effects are believed to cancel each other out.

A person who has an affliction of Mars in his/her chart should perform this yagna so that the nature
of this Manglik dosha would be less effective.

"Srusti Sthilaya Yasya lila Eva mahesituh

Tam Vande Saccidanandam Sarva shubhanivruttaye ||"

“Oh! Lord, the creator, protector and destroyer of the universe, the very form of truth,
consciousness, and bliss I bow to you. Let all the inauspicious things be driven away from me
and your devotee be protected.”

The Shri Rudram Chamkam is a Vedic stotra dedicated to Rudra, an earlier aspect of Shiva
Chamkam assures granting of what we ask. The creator makes no distinction between the things of 
the world and the other world. Both belong to him and desire born out of Virtue is really
manifestation of divinity and Dharma.

Chamkam furnishes completely the ideal of human happiness and defines in the highest degree the
desires and do not delimit to be asked or to be granted. Sri Rudram-Chamkam occupies a very
important place in Vedic literature and in the practice of Vedic Religion. It is the heart of Krishna
Yajurveda and is treasured in the center of Taittiriya Samhita Strictly speaking, the Rudra is a
Homa or sacrifice performed in fire in honour of God Rudra. While most of the rituals relating to
the other Gods stop limited to the particular purpose intended in the Karma Kanda, it was felt that
the Rudram could not and should not be so confined, but put to further varied uses. Hence we find
that Rudram and Chamkam are used invariably for all the Vedic worship of Shiva in all the
households and temples. The Rudram is addressed to worship Lord Shiva, who is said to give to the
devotee who seeks His Grace anything that is asked for.

The Chamkam occurs in the 4th Kanda, 7th Prapataka of the Yajur Veda. The rudra is mostly
chanted during Homa and avishekam. A pooja is performed with the chanting of the rudra mantra
1000 times is known as maha rudra,it‟ s done on special occasions like Maha shivaratri or Shravan
Somvar. Therefore, this yagna should be performed in a perfect way and with good intention and a
fruitful result will be followed. Yagna does not only mean performing Pooja, it means purifying
oneself from within.

Saturn‟s Seven and a Half Year Cycle also known as Sade Satti is one of the toughest periods in the
life of a person. Shani or Saturn is the most dreaded god after Yama, the god of death. He is a
malicious deity and is most feared by Hindus. The superstitions associated with Shani make him a
fearsome deity who causes all kinds of havoc in the lives of innocent people. It is said that a person
born under the influence of Saturn suffers from various problems like poverty, tension, insult,
displeasure and his family too suffers along with him.

When Saturn is transiting through the 12th, 1st, and 2nd house from the natal moon, this is termed
Sade-satti. “Sade-satti” literally means 7 ½ years, which means that Saturn naturally takes 2 ½
years in its transit from one house to another house. This transit is considered particularly important
in Vedic Astrology because this transit is supposed to indicate difficult results either to the native
or the native‟s close relatives.

One sure remedy for Shani's evil effect is worshipping Lord Hanuman. Scriptures say that when
Shani warned Lord Hanuman about the onset of his seven-and-half year long influence ( sade satti
), Lord Hanuman accepted the challenge and allowed Saturn to have his play. When the planet
dwelled on Lord Hanuman's head, Hanuman loaded heavy rocks on his head so viciously that the
planet was almost crushed. Shani faced similar agony when he tried to dwell on Hanuman's body.
Finally, the planet had to bow before Hanuman. Shani then declared that anyone who worshipped
Lord Hanuman would not be affected by the evil effect of the planet.

He is the emblem of patience, devotion and truth. He is the dutiful son and the remover of obstacles
and his vehicle is a tiny mouse compared to his huge body. He is none other than Lord Ganesh.
With the head of an elephant he may look tough from outside but he is the beloved deity of the
people and the god of wisdom, literature and worldly success.

Wisdom is indeed very important. We can win a battle or lose one because of the thinking that is
required at that particular time. Shiva decided that whoever would make a tour around the world
and come to the starting place first would have the right to be the elder son. Kartikeya at once sat
on his peacock and took a flight. The vehicle of Ganesh was a tiny mouse and the mouse was sad
that he could not help him. He thought for a moment and then went around his parents and asked
for the prize. Surprised Lord Shiva said that he could not do so because he had not travelled around
the world. To this Ganesha replied that for him, they were his world and he had completed the tour.
Shiva was very happy to see the wisdom of his son so proclaimed him as the elder of the two.

Ganesha is the Lord of Obstacles, both of a material and spiritual order. He can place obstacles in
the path of those who need to be checked and can remove blockages just as easily. The Sanskrit
terms vighnakart ("obstacle-creator") and vighnahart ("obstacle-destroyer").

This yagna is done to pray to Lord Ganapati, the remover of obstacles. It is especially auspicious
before starting any new venture. It is said that when He was young, Lord Ganapati obtained a boon
from his father - Lord Shiva, that whenever anybody started anything, he would be worshipped
first. As per Hindu mythology Lord Ganesh Ji is considered to be first inline among all Gods, That
is why before starting any Puja/Homam/Yagna Ganpati pu ja is done first. A brief Puja is given here
for daily recitement for the worshipers. A detailed Ganpati Puja can be ordered. Some of the
benefits of Ganapati Puja are acquiring peace and happiness by getting rid of malefic forces,
removing troubles that prevent us from starting on a spiritual path or business, creating positive
vibrations in the house, starting new ventures such as a new job, removing obstacles while starting
a new business or investments, and getting married. Ganapati Homas are traditionally performed
every Chaturthi (the fourth day of the lunar month).

This yagna is for people who are facing some problems in

life. Even after putting constant efforts when a person is not getting any fruitful result then he/she
can perform this yagna. For example: constant failure in exams, business or in work place.

We bow our head in devotion to the almighty Lord Shiva who is the destroyer of all evils. He is the
one whom we offer our prayers, to avoid ultimate death. Lord Shiva appears in a meditating but
ever-happy posture. He has knotted hair which holds the flowing Ganges River and a falcate moon,
a serpent coiled around his neck, a „trishul‟ in his one hand and ashes all over his body. Shiva is the
only godhead who is forever in deep meditation, totally absorbed in contemplation in His abode,
Kailaasa mountain in the great Himalaya.

The Lord's characteristic represents his victory over the evil activity, and calmness of human
nature. He is known as the "giver" god. His vehicle is a bull (symbol of happiness and strength)
named Nandi. Lord Shiva is the one who helps us to overcome the difficult phases of life.

Trayambakkam refers to the three eyes of Lord Shiva. He is also called Tryambaka Deva (literally,
"three-eyed Lord"), is depicted as having three eyes: the sun is His right eye, the moon the left eye
and fire the third eye. The two eyes on the right and left indicate His activity in the physical world.
The third eye in the center of the forehead symbolizes spiritual knowledge and power, and is thus
called the eye of wisdom or knowledge. Like fire, the powerful gaze of Shiva's third eye destroys
evil, and thus the person who has evil intention fears His third eye.. These three e yes of 
enlightment are the Trimurti or three primary deities namely, Brahma (omniscient), Vishnu
(omnipresent) and Shiva (Omnipotent).

We sing in praise to Lord Shiva whose fragrance is always spreading around. He is the sustainer of 
this world. Therefore when we are bound by some deadly disease then we should bow our head and
pray to him to bring us out from the deadly disease and also from the cycle of re-birth.

Based on the teachings of Sri Harihara in Prasna Marga, The Maha Mritunjai mantra should be
recited 8000 times in a period of forty days. The recitation of 108 mantra for forty days both in the
morning and evening covers this requirement. Maha Mruthyunjaya Homam is dedicated to Lord
Shiva to avoid untimely death. The Mruthyunjaya Homam is performed to achieve Jaya or Victory
over Mritya or death. The object of worship of this homa is Lord Shiva. One of the synonyms of 
Lord Shiva is Mrityu. Mrityu which means death of the death or the destroyer of death. During this
homa one chants 21 mantras. The prominent offerings in this homa are durva grass and an herb
called amrita. The former is famous for purifying blood an d the latter is used as a medicine for
incurable diseases like arbuda or cancer. Since these are used as offerings in this homa, it is
believed that this homam bestows longevity on the performer. The hymns are devoted to Mrityu,
the God of death, praying for long life. These hymns are used in the purnahuti or the final offering
in the famous Soma sacrifice. This homa also alleviates Mrityu dosha or premature death.

Shiva sitting in the cremation ground signifies that He is the controller of death in the physical
world. Since birth and death are cyclic, controlling one implies controlling the other. Lord Shiva is
honored as the ultimate controller of birth and death in this unique world. Thus, to relieve our self 
from uncertain death and lead a good and healthy life it is important that we perform the Maha
Mritunjai Yagna.

"People who are going through some unforeseen

circumstances for example if he/she is going through a chronic health problem or some legal
problem can perform this yajna. This yagna is done according to the intensity of the problem. An
astrologer advises the person to do a jaap (chanting within oneself) according to the seriousness of 
the situation."

According to a legend, Adi Sankara recited the slokas addressing Goddess Lakshmi. Sanka ra lost
his father when quite young, and his mother performed his upanayana ceremonies with the help of 
her relatives. Sankara excelled in all branches of traditional vedic learning. A few miracles are
reported about the young Sankara. As a brahmachari, he went about collecting alms from families
in the village. A lady who was herself extremely poor, but did not want to send away the boy
empty-handed, gave him the last piece of Amla fruit she had at home. Sankara, sensing the abject
poverty of the lady, composed a hymn (Kanakadhara Stavam) to Sri, the goddess of wealth, right at
her doorstep. As a result, a shower of golden Amlas rewarded the lady for her goodness. On
another occasion, Sankara is said to have re-routed the course of the Poorna River, so that his old
mother would not have to walk a long distance to the river. When he visited a house of a poor
family, they only had gooseberries to offer him. As he completed the slokas, there was a rain of 
golden gooseberries.

A person who wants immediate relief from financial problem can p erform this yajna. If he is under
some debt or his capital has been blocked or his dues are not getting cleared to some reason then
he/she can perform a Kanakdhara yagna.

It is the desire of every human being to have a child in his or her life. A woman longs for a child
after she is married but due to some circumstances she might not be able to do so…during such
time instead of losing hope one should not only try scientific measures but also pray to god
sincerely. It is said that if we pray to Shri Krishna with sincere heart then he does bless the couple
with a child.

Birth of a child is the greatest happiness for an y parent. This is the kind of happiness, which every
one wants in any form on this earth, but sometimes-adverse situation arises where due to some
reasons folks do not bless with this happiness or baby met with a death after birth. Blessings for
Parenthood is the general objective of all those who marry and certainly blessings for a healthy
progeny in particular are always asked from the Almighty. According to ancient Hindu Vedas it is
actually one of the most ancient and fundamental purpose of a human life to bear an offspring and
experience the elation of actually „giving life‟ to a new human being who would emulate each
single nuance of a parent and thus the eternal cycle of life would ceaselessly continue thereafter.

Even when everything is fine, a woman may not be able to

bear a child and medical treatments for both the parents may be necessary. During such situation
there is no doubt that they will be going through a bad stage .It is the desire of every married
woman to have a child of her own in such cases we could go ahead and perform a Santan Gopal
Yagna which would benefit the mother.

Vedic Harbal Treatment

Charaka who wrote the ancient treatise on Ayurveda called " Charaka Samhita" and also Buddha's
physician demonstrated that there is no substance in the planet world, which has no medicinal value,
provided one must know how to use it and for what ailments or deficiencies. About six hundred
different medicinal plants are mentioned in the ancient Ayurveda texts.

Plants have played an important part in Indian society. The study of Indian plants cannot be limited to
an examination of their therapeutic properties alone, but a holistic approach must be taken to
understand their significance in the entire spectra of Indian culture.
There is a renewed interest in the Western world especially in USA to study the ancient plants and their
medicinal and therapeutic properties in ancient civilizations and societies in India, China and Africa.

Multinational pharmaceutical companies are rushing to patent plants and their therapeutic use, which
have been traditionally used in India. There is a movement emerging in all these countries including
India to protect the rich bio diversity against excessive deforestation.

There is a need to increase our own awareness and knowledge about our own herbal treasures and
heritage.

Vedic Herbal Remedies also involve use of herbs, which ensures the positive influence of a particular
planet. We are giving below a brief description of such practice for each planet.
