Optimal benefits from specialty yagyas performed at celebrated temples

We've been traveling to India regularly the past 25 years - more than 100 times. Over the years, working with pandit groups associated with different temples, we've found that some temples (dedicated to a particular Devata ) specialize in certain yagyas. While they may perform many yagyas, some work better than others. This is due to the Devata of the temple and its relevance for particular yagyas. Over the years we've explored and cultivated working relationships with a number of temples specializing in particular yagyas . It's been our experience and more important our clients' experience - this approach works well.

Rationale

India is "Dev Bhumi" land of the Gods. It has many places where the Devata value is lively and accessible. Devata or deeper, Universal reality (God or presiding impulse of natural law) is lively and accessible in and around certain special locations. From one perspective, we can say Devata, land and families living on the land are not seperate. Although they appear as seperate entities, they are, in fact, part and parcel of the same reality. It can also be said the reality of the Devata (universal, eternal Law of Nature) has permeated these places since time out of memory. Temples serve as a focal point. The deeper universal reality (Devata) is not separate from the land, the temple or indeed the families who have lived there for generations. And the pandits born of these families perform our yagyas.

Rationale

While pandits are integral to the Yagyas - because they recite the mantras and perform the ceremonies - they are not separate from Devata. So the land, temples, families and pandits born of the families - are an expression of Devata: the deeper Eternal Universal reality - the greater wholeness. Therefore it's fair to say the influence of the Devata (grace, blessing) operates through the temple and the pandits who service the temple. In this way, speciality Yagyas performed at celebrated Temples deliver the grace of Devata optimal benefits .

Yagya relieves the suffering due to malefic planets.



Our joys and sorrows in this life result from actions (karmas) done in previous births. The fruits of our past actions are mediated or delivered to us through the instrumentality of the 9 planets (Navagraha - 9 forces of nature). Their arrangement in the heavens at the time of birth is a karmic map of our life. Vedic astrology interprets this star map enabling predictions to be derived from it. Planets activate during the period of life allotted to them. A malefic or afflicted planet in the horoscope will bring problems during the period ruled or influenced by it. What's done cannot be undone; how we repay the debt is negotiable. Yagya relieves the suffering.

Maladies of Mind Body and Circumstance are rectified

Our world is changing in so many ways: Institutions of power and control, Governments, economic realities, Our understanding of how the world works; Trust and Beliefs, Structures of society, Cultural norms. So much is changing so quickly, it could be said we're in the crucible of paradigm shift: Global purification; breaking down the old to make way for the new. Needless to say, current planetary influences are instrumental in this process of radical restructure. Specifically, transiting Saturn/Shani (Malefic - Grief Separation Obstacles Delays - Established order/status quo) approaches conjunction with transiting Rahu (Malefic - Rigidity Overshadowing Uproar Rough transformation Mass psychology - also new beginnings).

The immanent conjunction of Saturn and Rahu (along with Venus Mercury Sun and Neptune) culminates in Pisces/Meena - Dissolution/dissolving, Collective consciousness. Ruling planet Jupiter/Guru (Great benefic - Wisdom, Spiritual evolution, Dharma (life lived in accord with Natural law) now in Taurus (fixed earth) in Rohini Nakshatra - Star of ascent - (Bramha the creator) - Manifestation: Creation of new material circumstances. Practical concrete 'real world' transformation aligned with higher ideals and philosophies.

Amidst a world in throes of such radical transformation, it would seem prudent to align ourselves with the eternal, silent non changing source of all change and diversity.

Background


Rudra - Redemptive aspect of Shiva
When Supreme Peace becomes lively and dynamic - it is known as Rudra: the redeemer. Rudra is vibrating silence. Rudra dissolves flaws and imperfections bringing everything 'home' to rest, back to the unmanifest state of quiescence or peace.

Rudra Saturn Rahu
Shani (planet Saturn) is devotee of Shiva/Rudra. Therefore invocation of Rudra (Maha Rudra Yagya) neutralizes Shani's wrath. Of the 9 Planets (navagraha) Saturn rules karmic retribution; he delivers the fruits of our past mistakes, thereby teaching the lessons we need to learn in this birth. Typically Saturn rules grief, separation, obstacles, delays and disappointments, sorrow, hard work, chronic disease and old age, longevity and death. His nature is conservative, introverted, dutiful. Ultimately, Saturn inclines us towards final liberation, emancipation from the wheel of birth and death - moksha. Rahu is like Shani/Saturn. It also brings Rough transformations (Uproar), Perverse Mind/Overshadowing.
