I already published more than 450 articles in Vedic Astrology (one a day) during the past 15 months. I get hundreds of e-mails appreciating the contents of those articles. Also many people get their full-horoscope analyses prepared by me. I am glad, by God’s grace, I continue to be useful to many people even after my retirement from my profession (Professor of Engineering).
I publish the horoscope analysis of Bhagavan Adi Sankara in about 12 parts in a serial order. He is a great super-genius, the world ever had. He gave Hinduism a revival and introduced a catholic spirit in spreading the Hinduism and its greatness.
HOROSCOPE ANALYSIS OF BHAGAVAN ADI SANKARA ACHARYA OF KALADI
Part – 12 (Sept—01—2009)
6) The main period of Jupiter is a very significant, fruitful and successful period in the life of Sankara Acharya. (i) Jupiter is Jnana-kaataka ( bestower of knowledge and wisdom) and is the lord of Pisces, the 9th house {(dharma-sthana and trikona (trines)}. So he is beneficial (with adhpatya-bala). (ii) Jupiter also aspects (5th drushti) the lagna-lord and the Rasi (Moon; significator of mind) lagna. (iii) Jupiter also aspects (7th drushti) the 2nd house (Leo) vaak-sthana (house of speech). (iv) Jupiter also aspects (9th drushti) the 4th house (Libra), house of acquisitions and properties, in this case, intellectual and philosophical acquisitions. (v) Jupiter occupies a constellation of Mars in Sagittarius. Mars is top-rate yoga-kaaraka and is in Pisces, 9th house (dharma-sthana) owned by Jupiter. All the benefits of yoga-kaaraka (highly beneficial) Mars have showered profuse benefits and blessings on Sankara during the main period of Jupiter. 7) During the main period of Jupiter, and during the sub-periods of Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury (7 years period), Sankara stayed in an ashram on the banks of river Ganga in Varanasi. He visited daily Bhagavan Visweswara and Bhagavthi Annapoorna temples and did abhishekams and poojas to the deities. During that period he wrote commentaries on all the principal Upanishads, the Bhagad-Gita and the Brahma Suthras in Sanskrit verses (slokas). Occasionally, he visited Badarinath.
8) During the same period and under the planetary influence of Jupiter, Mars. Saturn and Mercury, Sankara met and had animated discussions with some of the most famous and learned scholars of his time. It is alleged that even Bhagavan Veda Vyasa (he is chiranjeevi like Bhagavan Hanuman), reputed author of Brahma Suthras, once visited Sankara’s ashram abode in Varanasi as a pretty old man on one occasion. Vyasa Bhagavan spent a few days at his ashram as a guest and entered into a disputation with Sankara for a few days. Finally he blessed Sankara and left satisfied and happy.
