ASTROLOGY - Effects of Curses in the Previous Birth

BRIHATPARASARA HORA SASTRA

Maitreya said. O Venerable Sage! You have acquainted me with effects, experienced by men and women in a number of ways. According to Shastras, the soul of a person does not rest in peace after his death, if he is not blessed with a son. What sin does a person commit to remain without a son? And what are the remedial measures to be adopted by him to get a son? Kindly enlighten me about this.

Maharishi Parasara replied. I will now tell you, whatever Lord Shiva told Goddess Parvati in this respect.

Goddess Parvati said to Lord Shiva. O my Lord! What is the sin, which causes destruction of children amongst men. Please tell me, what are the Yogas for such an effect and what are the remedial measures to protect the children?

Lord Shiva replied: O Devi! You have asked a very relevant question. Now I will tell you the Yogas for loss of children and the requisite remedial measures.

A person will be without a son, if GURU, the Lord of LAGNA and the Lord of the 5th are all devoid of strength.

The same will happen, if SURYA, KUJA, RAHU and SANI, endowed with strength, be in the 5th and the significator for children, namely GURU and Lord of the 5th etc. be bereft of strength.

There will be no male issue, due to the curse of a serpent, if at birth RAHU is in the 5th, aspected by KUJA; the Lord of 5th is associated with RAHU and CHANDRA is in the 5th and is aspected by SANI; the significator for children (GURU) is associated with RAHU, the Lord of the 5th is devoid of strength and the Lord of LAGNA is with KUJA; the significator for children is associated with KUJA, LAGNA is occupied by RAHU and the Lord of the 5th is in 6th, 8th, or 12th; BUDHA, as Lord of the 5th, being in the Navamsa of KUJA, is associated with KUJA and LAGNA is occupied by RAHU and Gulika; the 5th is MESHA, or VRISCHIKA and the Lord of the 5th is associated with RAHU, or BUDHA; the 5th is occupied by SURYA, SANI, KUJA, RAHU, BUDHA and GURU and the Lords of the 5th and LAGNA are devoid of strength; the Lord of LAGNA, or GURU is associated with RAHU and the Lord of the 5th is in conjunction with KUJA.

Remedial measures should be adopted to obtain protection from the evil effects of the above Yogas. These are getting an idol of Naga (serpent) Raja, made in gold and, after worshipping it in accordance with prescribed procedure, giving in charity a cow, some land, sesame seeds and gold etc. By adopting these measures the Lord of Serpents will be gratified and by his beneficence the person concerned will be blessed with a son and the lineage of his family will be prolonged.

There will be no male issue, as a result of the curse of the father in the previous birth, if at birth of the native SURYA in his debilitation Rasi and in the Navamsa of SANI is hemmed in between malefics in the 5th Bhava; SURYA, as Lord of the 5th, posited in a Trikon with a malefic, is hemmed in between malefics and is also aspected by a malefic; GURU occupies the Rasi of SURYA, the Lord of the 5th is with SURYA and LAGNA and the 5th are occupied by malefics; Lord of LAGNA, devoid of strength, is in the 5th and the Lord of the 5th is combust and LAGNA and the 5th are occupied by malefics; there is exchange of Bhavas between Lords of the 5th and the 10th and LAGNA and the 5th are occupied by malefics; KUJA, as the Lord of the 10th, is associated with the Lord of the 5th and LAGNA, the 5th and the 10th are occupied by malefics; Lord of the 10th is in the 6th, 8th, or 12th, GURU is in a malefic Rasi and the Lord of LAGNA and the 5th are associated with malefics; SURYA, KUJA and SANI are in LAGNA and the 5th and RAHU and GURU are in the 8th and the 12th; SURYA is in the 8th, SANI in the 5th, the Lord of the 5th is associated with RAHU and LAGNA is occupied by a malefic; Lord of 12th is in LAGNA, Lord of 8th in 5th and Lord of 10th in 8th; Lord of 6th is in 5th, Lord of 10th in 6th and GURU is associated with RAHU.

To get deliverance form the curse of the father the remedial measures are performance of Shraddha at Gaya; to feed ten thousand, one thousand, or 100 Brahmins, as one can afford; Kanyadana (to perform the marriage of a girl); giving a cow in charity. By observing these remedial measures, the person concerned becomes free from the curse and the family lineage is prolonged by the birth of sons, grandsons etc.

Where the words ‘childlessness’ and ‘issue-lessness’ are used, they should be interpreted to mean want of male issue, because it is the male issue, who by performing the last rites of his father and mother ensures eternal peace to their souls.

For release from this curse and to beget a male issue the person concerned should take bath in the sea with bridge of rocks between India and Sri Lanka, recite one Lakh Gayatri Mantras, give in charity things, connected with evil Grahas, feed Brahmins and go round a Pipal tree 1008 times. By performing these remedial measures, he will not only beget a son, the lineage of family will also be prolonged.

If a person, mad with power and wealth, insults a Brahmin, he remains without a male issue in the next birth. A person will be without a male issue, as a result of the curse of a Brahmin, if at birth RAHU is in GURU’s Rasi and GURU in 5th; Lord of 9th is in 5th and Lord of 5th in 8th along with GURU, KUJA and RAHU; Lord of 9th is in his debilitation Rasi and Lord of 12th, associated with RAHU, is in 5th; GURU is in his debilitation Rasi, RAHU in LAGNA, or 5th and Lord of 5th in 6th, 8th, or 12th; Lord of 5th and GURU, associated with malefics, are in 8th, or the Lord of 5th, associated with SURYA and CHANDRA, is in 8th; GURU, being in the Navamsa of SANI, is associated with SANI and KUJA and the Lord of 5th is in 12th; GURU is associated with SANI in LAGNA and RAHU is in 9th, or RAHU is with GURU in 12th.

The person concerned gets release from the curse and is blessed with a son, if he performs the marriage of an unmarried girl, or, if such a girl is not available, a gold idol of the Lakshminarayana, fertile cow, a bed, ornaments and garments to a Brahmin couple.

Notes. According to our view, ‘Kanyadana’ does not mean giving a girl in charity, but helping in the performance of the marriage of an unmarried girl, not his own daughter.

If the person, whose duty is to do so, does not perform Shraddha of his father, or mother in his previous birth, the departed soul is formed into an evil spirit and he is deprived of a male issue in the next birth. This is revealed by the following Yogas at birth. SANI and SURYA in 5th, waning CHANDRA in 7th and RAHU and GURU in 12th; SANI, as Lord of 5th in 8th, KUJA in LAGNA and GURU in 8th; Malefics are in LAGNA, SURYA in 12th, KUJA, SANI and BUDHA are in 5th and the Lord of 5th is in 8th; RAHU is in LAGNA, SANI in 5th and GURU in 8th; SUKRA, GURU and RAHU are in LAGNA, associated with CHANDRA and SANI and the Lord of LAGNA are in 8th; Lord of 5th and GURU are in their debilitation Rasis, aspected by debilitated Grahas; SANI is in LAGNA, RAHU in 5th, SURYA in 8th and KUJA in 12th; Lord of 7th is in 6th, 8th, or 12th, CHANDRA is in 5th, SANI and Gulika are in Lagn; Lord of 8th along with SANI and SUKRA is in 5th and GURU is in his debilitation Rasi.

The person concerned gets release from the curse and is blessed with a son, if he undertakes the following remedial measures. Performance of a Pinda Dana, Rudra Abhisheka, giving in charity a gold idol of Brahma, a cow, a vessel, made of silver and a Neelamani, feeding Brahmins and giving them presents in cash.

If a person is deprived of a male issue, as a result of malevolence of Grahas at birth, he will be blessed with a son, if he undertakes the following remedial measures. Worshipping Lord Shiva, if the harm is, as a result of the malevolence of BUDHA and SUKRA; reciting of Santan Gopal Mantra, wearing and worshipping appropriate Yantra and taking suitable medicines, if the childlessness is a result of the malevolence of GURU and Candr; KANYA Dana, if the childlessness is due to malevolence of RAHU; worshipping of Lord Vishnu, if it is due to malevolence of SURYA; Rudriya Japa, if it is due to the malevolence of KUJA and SANI.
