Birth Nakshatra is part of The Panchang

1 Review a Birth Nakshatra is part of The Panchang S.P. Gaur, Gurgaon In astrology five parameters of Panchang are applied to assess the auspiciousness or otherwise of any event. This is extensively used in forecasting of Muhurta time for any important event of life. The birth of a perrson is the most important happening of his life. the configuration of planets at birth time from the horoscope from which we can decipher the quality of one's entire life, the good and bad periods of life, health, longevity, educational and professional field, financial position, family relations etc. In fact astrology enables us to reply to any querry raised by the native about any aspect of life. The birth time horoscope is equivalent to the seed of a plant which contains all the information about the sprouting of the seed, the size and colours of its branches, leaves, flowers, fruits, the blooming time, its utilities as a gift of nature. The five parameters of Panchang are :. Tithi,. Vaar,. nakshatra,. Yoga,. Karan Thus birth nakshatra is one of the five consttituents of Panchang. It is the nakshatra of the on at the time of birth. Every component of the Panchang is important. There are good Tithis and bad tithis. part from rikta tithis, chaturdashi and amavasyas are considered inauspicious in krishna paksha. mong the vaars, Tuesday, turday and nday are not auspicious. There are ten yogas, out of, which are supposed to be inauspicious. mong the Karans, Vishti Karan or Bhadra is highly inauspicious while sthir karans such as Shakuni, Chatuspada, Naag and Kinsttughna are also not so auspicious. Three of these viz. shwini, Magha and ol belong to tu and another three viz. shlesha, Jyeshtha and Revati belong to planet rcury. These six nakshatras are referred to as Ganda ol nakshatras. In our opinion, Birth Nakshatra is the most important constitutent of the birth time panchang. on in astrology is as important as the ascentant. on's rashi is called the birth or Janma rashi of the native. on's nakshatra is the basis for reparing the dasha cycle of the native because the first vimshotari dasha belongs to the lord of the on's nakshatra. In muhurta calculations the on's rashi of the person is taken into consideration. gain for studying the impact of transiting planets, on's rashi is taken as the lagna and accordingly the auspicious houses of the planets are decided. In view of the foregoing on's nakshatra is highly important factor to influence the life of the native. Gandanta time is inauspicious 'Ganda' in nskrit language is the 'ndhi' time or the knot tied between two important parameters of time for connecting one to the other. s a knot, to tie two pieces of thread, is a weak spot, similarly Gandanta time is a weak link between two astrologicaly important factors. Brihat parashar Horashashtra has mentioned three types of Gandanta in chapter under "Gandanta Lakshan." frffk&u{k=&yxukuka x.mkura f=fof/ka Le`re~ tue&;k=k&fookggknzks HkosÙkf=/kuizne~ Thus according to sage Parashar, Tithi, Nakshatra and lagna are three types of Gandanta which are inauspicious, like death at the time of birrth, travel or marriage like ceremonies. u{k= x.mkur jsorhnkl=;ks% lkize/k;ks% 'kkøewy;ks% lu/kks u{k=x.mkuresoa ukmhprq"v;e~ The two ghati of end of Revati and beginning of shwini, shlesha end and beginning of Magha, Jyeshtha end and ol's beginning, thus Nakshatra Gandanta is of ghatis between three pairs of Ganda ol nakshatras. yxu x.mkur ehukt;ks% dfrzg;kszyzxu;ksjfypki;ks% lu/kks p yxux.mkure/k Å/o±?kVhfere~ Half a ghati each of ena-sh, Karka-Singh, Vrishchika-Dhanu, thus one ghati of these three pairs of lagnas form Lagna Gandanta. We can find from the above that lagna Gandantas also specify the same nakshatra pair as contained in IFS Research Journal of strology l.-sep. 0

2 a fopkj xks"bh Review Nakshatra-Gandanta. The ghati represents minutes of time. We also find that all kinds of ndhi kaal or transitional periods are considered troublesome, confusing and destructive. The concept of Gandanta is extended to n's sankranti (ingress into next rashi), Bhava-ndhi, Dasha-ndhi, ndhya time in early morning and n's setting time in evening. These are supposed to be delicate and sensitive times. ny eventt happening at transition time can cause havoc in the life of the concerned person. We all know when one Ritu or season ends and the other begins e.g. summer-rainy, autumn-winter, winterspring etc. The immune system is weak and is challenged by seasonal change. Ganda ol Nakshatras The names of the six Ganda ol nakshatras with their serial numbers are : shwini, Revati, Magha, shlesha, ol, Jyeshtha While shwini, Magha and ol belong to tu and fall at the beginning of sh, Singh and Dhanu rashis (all gni tatwa rashis), Revati, shlesha and Jyeshtha belong to rcury and fall at the end of ena, Karka and Vrishchika rashis (all Jal tattwa rashis). Thus we note that the sandhi or joining point of these three pairs of nakshatras also happens to be the joining point of two mutualy contradictory elements of fire and water. The nakshatra lords tu and rcury are Tamoguni and joguni planets respectively. shlesha- Magha Cancer Leo shwini- Revati ries Pisces gittarius Scorpio Three Pairs of Ganda ol Nakshatras Jyeshtha- ola First pair s ' s ' '.

There are variations inviews between various scholars about bhuktt ol calculation. ge vashishta treats last one ghati of Jyeshta and first two ghatis of ol, that is total minutes as bhukt ol. ge Brihaspati is in favour of last ½ ghati of Jyeshta and first ½ ghati of mool nakshatra, that is minutes time, as bhukt ol. ge Narad would treat last ghati of Jyeshtha and first ghati of ol, that is hour minutes, as bhukt ol.

Some scholars would prefer to categorise birth in Jyeshtha or ol nakshatra as bhukta ol, as these two are supposed to be more deadly and fearsome. Father is advised not to see the face of the child till proper 'shanti' or propitiation of the nakshatra has been done on the th day after birth or when the day nakshatra is same. It may not be out of place to mention here about "Mansagri" granth which has been used extensively by astrologers to write the life long predictions of horoscope. To our knowledge this is the only classical book which gives results of the bith in a Panchang/ vkahada specific manner citing yug, mbvatsar, yana, Ritu, Goal, Maas, Paksha, Tithi, Vaar, Nakshatra, Yog, Karan, Gana, Yoni etc. The treatise gives highly positive results of all Ganda ol nakshatras except shlesha. General Perception aboutt Ganda ol Nakshatras People are scared to learn that their child has been borne in Ganda ol. They feel some kind of calamity would befall, on the family in near future if shanti pooja is not done on th day of the birth. Therefore those who consult an astrologer for birth horoscope would invariably go for 'shanti'. In the past when parents were not so particular aboutt horosocpe of the newly born, would obvioously not perform Ganda ol shanti. strologers, on their part, would always recommend for 'ol Shanti' even if the nakshatra charan 'phala' is found to be positive. Even when examining the horoscope of an elder person, Ganda ol nakshatra comes to the notice of the astrologer, generally the astrologer would blame the Ganda ol nakshatra for all the problems faced by the native and recommend for ol shanti. Thus Ganda ol nakshatra is treated at par with other doshas like kaal sarpa, pitri, 'dhaiyya' or 'sadhesati' of shani, Manglik doshas etc. Ganda ol Shanti should be performed upto years age of the child, thereafter it is irrrelevent. Purpose of the Research study Whether the persons born in Ganda ol nakshatra have experienced the same good or bad results as mentioned charan wise? IFS Research Journal of strology l.-sep. 0

4 a fopkj xks"bh Review Whether those who went for Ganda ol shanti escaped the bad results or their good results faced any hinderance if 'shanti pooja' was not done? Wheether bhukt ol cases sufferred extra ordinary, probles in life, if they did not perform 'ol Shanti'? For this purpose we scanned the horoscopes of nearly 0 known persons and could lay hands on 0 cases of Ganda ol nakshatras. We prepared a format and ask for their confirmation of the nakshatra charan result (good or bad) and whether their parents had performed ol shanti. We also identified celebrities who were bornee in Ganda ol nakshatras and made a gues about the good or bad results faced by them. We segregated the cases into Good (auspicious) or Bad (inauspicious) categories in accordance with the charan wise expected results. Results unfolded Out of 0 cases, cases were to experience good ressults (%) while in cases (%) bad results were feared. Good results were experienced in all the cases (0%) out of which were ordinary persons and were celebrities. Out of only in cases 'shanti' had been performed i.e..%. Though responding 'shanti' no information is available about these cases, one of them is Muslim and another Christian, rest are Hindus. Bad results were to be experienced in cases, comprising of ordinary persons and celebrities. Out of, only persons experienced bad results nalysis of the feed back received Category wise feed back is as follows : Number of Ganda ol nakshatra cases studied Ordinary persons : 0 (0%) Celebrities : (0%) Total : 0 (0%) (a) Good Results Cases Ordinary Persons : Celebrities : Total : (%) (b) Bad Results Cases Ordinary Persons : Celebrities : Total : (%) (a) Good Results Cases Good Results Not Total Shanti experienced experienced done Ordinary Persons : (0%) -(0%) (.%) Celebrities : (0%) - (0%) N (b) Bad Results Cases Bad Results Not Total Shanti experienced experienced done Ordinary Persons : (.%) (.%) 0 (.%) Celebrities : Nil (0%) (0%) N (c) bhukt ol Cases (Out of 0) Extremely Bad Not Total Shanti Results experienced experienced performed Ordinary Persons : (.%) (.%) (.%) Celebrities : Nil (0%) (0%) N IFS Research Journal of strology l.-sep. 0

5 Review a while did not experience any bad results. Out of these ordinary persons 0 (.%) had performed Ganda ol Shanti. Out of, there were celebrities, none of them experienced any bad results. mong them only one was, Hindu, Muslims and one Christian. Therefore 'Shanti' could not have been done at least in % cases. ll the cases fall under bhukt ol category. bhukt ol nakshatras are supposed to give worst results but facts are different. Out of ordinary persons (.%) did not experience any bad results. Out of celebrities, all of them or 0% experienced good results only. Only (.%), out of ordinary cases, had performed 'Shanti'. mong the celebrity cases, only one was Hindu as stated above. Conclusion From the above analysis of factual cases, it is apparent that in majority of the cases, the result experienced were opposite to expected bad results while good results were experienced in abundance. bhukt ol cases showed no different results. Out of such cases, adversity was faced only in one case. Similarly role of Ganda ol shanti is also suspect. Without shanti good results were experienced and with 'shantti' also bad results were faced. In nutshell we can say, Ganda ol Nakshatra criterion, on its own, is not at all a reliable factor to decide the fate of a person. There are many factors much more important and much more reliable for analysing a horoscope. We would also like to appeal to serious students of astrology to go for research with bigger sample size and test the Ganda ol Nakshatra or similar conservative theories in real life experience so that we can discharge the role of a guide or consultant more effectively for the benefit of the society.
