Karma 1
 Magha Nakshatra:
Spread from 0 degree to 13:20’ Simmam.
Lord Sun is the lord of this star and the
deity ‘Pitrigan’. Symbol-The royal Court
with a royal throne. Attributes-The virtues
and vices of the father’s family, wealth,
glory, beauty, strength and prowess,
luster and effulgence, superior qualities,
sharpness of intellect, nobility, prestige,
replenishment, and increase, wisdom,
brilliance, capacity and willingness to
donate, ancestors on the paternal side-all
these are effected by Magha. In no star is
the position of Lord Sun is so magnificent
and dignified. Lord Sun in “Ashwini” is
brilliant no doubt but the brilliancy of
incendiary character. It burns everything Swamiji Sri Selvam Siddhar
about it. Lord Sun is then a terrible ball
of fire. But in Magha, Lord Sun is like an
emperor, confident and self-assured. If pure and sacrifice things. Those born in

O nly by knowing the power of the

planets in an individual’s horoscope,
one can get a clear conclusion about the
individual. The Atharva Veda gives great
ideas about the planets and stars even long
back before the telescopes were invented.
The Astronomy tells about various stars
and constellation of stars. But the Vedic
Astrology speaks about twenty seven stars
and the nature of the persons born in that
particular star. This is only a guidline. The
nature will vary according to the planets’
position I the horoscope. Anyone, those
who wish to know more and more about
the planets’ position in their horoscope

write about the stars and the nature of the
persons born in that particular star.
Karma 2
happy and pleased he is in a mood to make
any benediction or gift. When Lord Sun is
in Magha, Lord Sani gets alarmed and that
is natural. For Sani is by character, of a
mean disposition, the nature of a slave, no
wonder that mean and lowly Sani cannot
brook the beauty and the dignity of the
position of Lord Sun in Magha. That is
why Sani is “Neecha” and anti-meridian
in Ashwini and meanness and wiliness of
Sani increases. If Sani is the lord of 9th
and 10th houses and is placed in the 4th
house and associated
with Magha he adversely influences
the effects of the 4th and 10th houses.
Magha is the cause of brightness and
light. Therefore gloomy Grahas cannot
stand it. Magha stands for noble impulses
and incentives, the gift of Magha must
always be a noble one. Magha has been
described as glorious one. Those born in
the star Makha are reserved, highly sexy,
endowed with comforts and have wives
who are also reserved. Knowledgeable,
the Makha star are cruel, respect their
fathers, sharp in reacting with others,
non-sinners and destroy their enemies.
They are harsh-spoken, hefty bodied,
angry, transact with teachers and kings,
interested in the advice of Devaguru and
are bright. They tread the religious path
and endowed with pleasant qualities;
enjoyers and truthful. They are served by
many servants, conduct big operations
and are leaders of a big army. They are
learned, long-lived, earn good money,
obedient and help their relatives. They
have bloodshot eye and possess fish sign
on the chest. Those born in the first pada
like to be alone, suffer from ear diseases,
talk much, cruel, deceivers, hate others;
and always sick.
Poorvapalguni Nakshatra:
Spread from 13:20’ to 26:40’ Simmam.
Lord is Lord Sun, deity “Shivalinga”,
Symbol-Swinging hammock. It is also
called the Bhagadaivata Star. All the six
majesties, pleasure and prosperity, love,

kingly, daring and extremely soft personalities. They win over
their enemies, loved by women, experts in arts, truthful, and

of hot constitution, obedient, happy, learned and possess signs

Hasta Nakshatra:
Spread from 10: to 23:20’ Kanya. The Lord is Lord Budha and
the deity is Surya., symbol - closed hand. The 12 names of the
sun are: (1) Arun, (2) Aditya, (3) Tapan, (4) Divakar, (5) Bhaskar,
(6) Bhanu, (7) Martanda, (8) Mithra, (9)Ravi, (10) Bivakar, (11)
Sahasramsu and (12) Surya. All the attributes of these names
etymologically connotes are caused by this star. From the Surya
we derive creativity and creation, and from creation we derive
light, luster, and strength. Surya is the prime cause of dominion,
kingship, power of immunity and the light that dispels darkness.
Budha is the cause of knowledge. If placed in this star he sheds

deceivers, increase their circle of friends, and happy.
Swati Nakshatra:
Spread from 6:40’ to 20: Thula. Lord is Sukra, the deity is
the Wind and because of this latter factor this causes the
attributes of the wind. Restlessness of disposition or physical
restlessness, inability to stay still at any place comes from it;
also fidgetiness and noise. It is self-assured and asserting. The
winds are the Lords of North-West. From these are derived the
knowledge, the physical internal adjustments of the 5 Winds -
Prana, Apana, Vyana, Udana and Samana. Also from this comes
the storms and the whirl-wind, the concrete disturbance of the
atmosphere, A person born under this star is good at buying
and selling, his wealth and property come and go quite easily.
He is an independent sort of man, always striving for more
independence. Asceticism is yet another attribute of this star.
Diseases of the wind are to be treated in reference to this. The
Wind is the great scavenger, it sweats the dross and purifies.
The winnowing of rice bears comparison to this. Those born in
the star Swati are wise, witty and learned. They are religious
and pleasant minded. They are endowed with the body of kingly
symbols, bright and handsome and loved by their wives. They
perform religious works, truthful, experts in transactions, sexy,
givers and learned. They are obedient, lovers of pious people,
experts in architecture and sculpture, stingy and respect gods
and brahmins. They help others, daring, long lived, large eyed,
kind, famous, lovers of relatives and friends, independent,
eat optimum food, and followers of their own religion. Those
born in the first pada are always brave, knowledgeable; speak
little excess, good speakers, handsome, capable in doing any
job, endowed with sophisticated body but strong, critical in all
undertakings, and winners of the hearts of people.
Karma 4
Vishakha Nakshatra:
Spread from 20 Thula up to 3:20’ Viruchika Rasi. The lords
are Sukra and Mangal, Deity is Satragni, Symbol - a leaf-
decked triumphal gate. Another name of this Star is Radha,
a compliment to Anuradha, the birth star of Surya. From this
is derived the fulfillment of action, variety of enterprise,
achievement irrespective of the means employed and fearless
and unscrupulous pursuit of self-interest. Real friendship hardly
happens. A man born under this star works at various things
but hardly concentrates on any one of them. To spread about
and to dissipate is another attribute of this star. The native of
this star aims at success and is pleased with it when it happens,
nothing else matters. Among other attributes may be mentioned
obedience to religious injunctions, quickness of the uptake, and
also loss and disaster from enemies, sometimes even death or
lunacy. Those born in the Vishakha star are physically impure,
strong, go after others’ women, bereft of relatives and cause
deference amongst friends. They are always thinking about
sex, experts in the jobs of fire, brewery, ores and metallurgical
operations and do not develop friendship with anybody. They
are jealous, subtle, kind, forbidden love, of controlled senses,
wealthy and stingy. They are intelligent, stable minded, good
speakers, love relatives, children and friends. They are great
people. They are candid and quarrelsome and addicted to
prostitutes. They are witty, obedient, long-lived, help many,
speakers of truth, short tempered, lovers of women, possess
blood-shot eyes and also fish sign on the secret parts. Those
born in the first pada possess a small girdle, remember help
rendered by others, proud, old, born, addicted to bad jobs,
troublesome to relatives and bereft of corns and wealth, wise,
leaders of army, enjoyers and peaceful.
Anuradha Nakshatra:
Spread from 3:20’ to 16”40’ Viruchika Rasi. Lord is Mangal,
Symbol - the same as that of Visakha. Visakha and Anuradha
are complimentary to each other. From Anuradha is derived
friendship, love, affection and other tender feature of a person’s
character. From Visakha is considered the ultimate objective
while from Anuradha is indicated the ‘action’. The difference
between Visakha and Anuradha is that while the Visakha-
native forgets after success about benefits derived as also the
persons who helped, the Anuradha-native retains soft feeling
about them, he keeps his friendship intact and does not forget
the benefits. The Anuradha-native’s mind is always alive and
receptive to all feelings and gestures of friendship and love.
He is like the sentinel always a mounting guard over emotions,
but lacking the hardness or toughness of the official sentinel.
Those born in the star Anuradha are interested in women, with
commendable complexion of the body, bewildered, idle and
weak minded. They are famous, experts in arts, and destroyers
of their enemies. They are servers of king, brave, stationed
in countries other than their own, handsome, and destroyers
of their sins. They are truthful, respect kings, respect their
mothers and are musicians. They enjoy life and go after other
women. They are fit for friendship, kind hearted, of helping
nature, intelligent, enjoyers and travelers. They are endowed
with few children, lovers of peace, and givers of food, famous
and respected by kings. They are good conversationalists,
obedient, always advisers, full of pride and forget the help
rendered by others, aged looking, stingy, untruthful, bad
persons and bereft of relatives, are those born in the first pada.
Jyestha Nakshatra:
Spread from 16:40’ up to 30: degree Vrischika Rashi, Lord is
Mangal, the deity is Indra, equivalent to Lord Sun, the King of
the firmament. Indra is the great lord, the mighty warrior and a
hero among heroes by tradition and in the plenitude of power
he reigns supreme. He is the first among courtesans. When
this star is unfavorable it causes sorrow and poverty. Those
born in the Jyeshtha star are fond of daily physical exercises,
warriors, always respecting brahmins, famous and endowed
with fine qualities. They gain fame, are bright, accompany
kings, affected in mind, deeply idle, well known, and speak
final. They are addicted to bad jobs, capable of undergoing
difficulties, unbearable, cruel, untruthful and wealthy. They
are tall and endowed with few children. They are pure and
intelligent. They are religious and have a good circle of
friends; they are poets and wise. They are generally dark
complexioned, happy, stable and much learned. Those born
in the first pada are writers, witty people, pleasant faced, sexy
and attracted by women. They are liked by all, interested in
discussion of the scriptures and happy.
In the next issue I will meet you all with the remaining set
of nine stars. I pray Lord Shiva and Vanadurga to shower
their entire blessings on all of us to have a trouble free and
comfortable life.

Sri. Selvam
Siddhar is very
fond and affectionate
to children. His idea is if
the children are well cultured,
the entire society will be well. So, he
use to tell short moral stories to the kids
in all the satsangs. Here is some moral stories
for children. The moral is not only for children but
for all.
Please God
A sage observed seven dark women walking by his hermitage
every morning and return clean and beautiful. He asked them
who they were. They said, ‘We are the seven seas. When people
come and wash their sins in our waters, we grow dark...There
is a person who, when we go and circumambulate him, the sins
wash away and we regain our true nature’. Curious, he enquired
about that person endowed with such powers.
They replied, ‘He is Pundalika, a boy famous for his devotion
towards his parents. God visited that boy’s house, and Pundalika
requested Him to stand on a couple of bricks till he finished doing
‘pada pooja’ to his parents. Pleased with the boy’s devotion,
God manifested in the form of Panduranga. Pundalika ranks
high as one of the four prime devotees of the Lord (Prahalada,
Parasara, Narada, and Pundalika). Here is a devotee who did
not neglect his worldly responsibilities and God placed him on
a high pedestal.
The path you have chosen to lead your life is not so important,
as fulfilling the responsibilities associated with that path. How
well you play your part in this drama of life decides how close
you become to God.
LOVING OR FEIGNING LOVE
There is this story of a person who assumed that the world
is permanent. A sage advised him of the transience of
the world; that all relationships are false. But the man
was not willing to believe what the hermit said. The
sage told him, ‘I will give you a pill, eat it and you
will be physically immobile for a day as if you are
dead, but you will be conscious. Then you will understand
the true nature of the world by the happenings around you.The
man took the pill and feigned death. When the hermit reached
the man’s house, the wife sobbed inconsolably, ‘O Sage! My
husband has departed at such a young age’, to which the sage
replied, ‘I can revive him, provided one of you sacrifice your life
for his sake’. The man’s aged parents told the hermit, ‘We need
to go on pilgrimages to Kasi and Rameswaram; we cannot give
up our lives before that’. The children said, ‘Our mother will
take care of us; it will compensate for our father’. The hermit
told the wife, ‘You seem to be in much greater grief than the
others. I can save your husband if you can give up your life
for him’, to which the wife replied, ‘Even when this person
was alive, he was frittering away his life under the influence of
drinks. I will take care of the family’. The hermit said, ‘What is
this? I am asking one of you
to give up your life to save
him; none of you seem to
care for him’ to which the
entire family chorused,
‘Swami! You do not have
any relations in the world,
nor do you have any wants.
Why do not you sacrifice
your life for him? We will
construct a Samadhi for you
and will worship you on your anniversary’, and the hermit fled!
That is how the world is. Only ten percent of the world knows to
love; the remaining 90% are busy flaunting love for getting their
work done. They do not care if saints suffer from stomachache;
their focus is ‘if the saint accepts what I offer, then it is good for
me’ and therefore they will thrust on the saints whatever they get
from a cheaper store.

Poorana Kozhukattai (Vinayaga Chathurthi Special)

When we were kids, the first thing that will come to our mind
about Vinayakar Chathurthi is the sweet poorna kuzhakattai and
sundal that will be made in all houses and distributed among the
neighboring houses on that day. We used to compare the softness
of the kozhukattai made in different houses.

Though I love poorna kuzhakattai,I used to make modagam

which is more favorite to vinayagar. But this year I wanted to
share this recipe with my readers.

Ingredients
This is yet another chettinad delicacy made out of baby jack fruit Raw rice -200 gms (1 uzhakku) (Here we get mavu
which will go very well with curd rice, Rasam Rice, Chappathi pacharisi),Powdered jaggery-1/2 cup,grated coconut-1/2

teaspoon Wash the kadai and pour back the jaggerry and boil till it turns
sticky. In medium fire it can be boiled for 3 to 4 minutes. Now
Procedure add the coconut, ghee and the powdered cardamom and stir well
Peel off the skin from the baby jack fruit and cut as shown. Cut
the potato also in the same size. Chop the onion and tomatoes
also. In a small cooker or pressure pan cook the cut jack fruit
and potatoes for 1 whistle in high flame. This will get cooked
fast and will get smashed if over cooked. So if you are not sure
when to switch off then cook it in microwave or in a kadai in
such a way that the pieces are just correctly cooked. Grind the
items given in ‘To grind’ to a smooth paste. Now keep the kadai
in the stove. In two tablespoons of oil season the curry with the
items given in ‘To season’. Add the onions and tomatoes and
saute nicely till oil separates. Now add the grinded masal and
salt needed and sauté till it gets cooked well and oil separates
in medium fire. Add ¼ cup of water to this and put the cooked
baby jack fruit and potato pieces. Mix everything nicely in such

till there is not much water content. Don’t keep the coconut for
a long tome in the stove. Switch off with in two minutes else the
coconut will get roasted. Now the poornam is ready.
Now we have to make the kozhukattai and keep the poornam
inside. In Tamilnadu lot of ready made achu (moulds) is
available. But if you don’t have achu also no problem. The batter
will listen to your needs. Make small balls. Spread it into flat
thin circles or make small kinnams. Little bit gingili oil can also
be used for spreading. Youngsters today will do a better work of
making different shapes than us. Keep the poornam inside and
cover nicely. If you make the first type stick the ends nicely.
Steam the kozhukattai in idly pot or stand. Remember you have
to put a cloth or tissue on the idly plate before steaming else the
steam from below will change the color of the kozhukattai.
Chakkarai pongal or Sarkkarai pongal (sweet Rice)
This Rice is the queen of pongal. The idea of making this pongal
on the first day of Thai month, was to make a sweet first out of
the newly harvested rice. Now time has changed. Agriculture
is no more the main occupation of many. But we continue to
celebrate the function with some raw rice we get in the store. To
our future generations we should try to explain the importance
of this function to the farmer and the agriculturists
In those days pongal was kept outside the house in the open for
sun God. Now in our system of living we can’t do that and we
have ended up in making pongal in the pressure cooker in our
kitchen. Till today, I have managed to make pongal on the pongal
day in the pongal panai in the dining room keeping the gas stove
down .But in this method there is a risk of pongal getting burnt
if we are not careful. So I advice the younger generation to make
it in the cooker itself which is a safe and sure method
Ingredients
Raw rice-1 cup,Grated jaggerry-1 cup, Broken green gram-
handful (pasiparuppu) Ghee 3 table spoons, Cashews-10,
Raisins-handful, Powdered cardamom-1,teaspoon
Procedure
Wash the rice and pasiparuppu and cook in the pressure cooker
with 3 cups of water in medium fire for 10 minutes. Meantime
dissolve the jaggerry in a cup of water in the stove. Strain it using
a stainless steel strainer .Keep it back in the stove and bring the
mixture to a boil for 2 minutes. After the pressure goes open the
cooker. Smash the rice nicely with a flat ladle. Slowly pour the
jaggerry water into the cooker mixing well .Switch on the stove
now and in low fire mix everything nicely. Switch off the stove
in 2 minutes. Remember the pongal will solidify once it cools.
If you want you can add little milk also instead of water while
cooking rice. In a small frying pan, in a tablespoon of ghee fry
the cashews after breaking it into small pieces in low fire. Add
this also into the cooker. Fry the raisins also and along with that
ghee add everything into the pongal. Add the cardamom powder
and a tablespoon of ghee and mix well. Your pongal is ready.
While serving you can use the remaining 1 tablespoon of ghee.
Modagam
This is the favorite sweet of Lord Ganesha or Pillayar as we call
in Tamil. So this is commonly made in all houses in Tamilnadu
during Vinayaga Chathurthi. This is different from Poorna
Kuzhakkattai which is a sweet stuffed one. Modagam is made
with broken rice like Rava and Jaggerry. One of my readers is
urgently in need of this recipe, so no more time for stories.
Ingredients
Rice (broken like Rava)-2 cups,Jaggerry-2 cups,Water-6 cups
(3 cups of water for 1 cup rice),Grated coconut-1/4 cup,Ghee-3
tablespoons
Broken Green gram-1/4 cup (pasiparuppu), Cardomom-4
(powder it along with a teaspoon of sugar in the mixie)
Procedure
Wash the rice. Spread it under the fan for an hour in newspaper
till the rice gets dried. Those who can’t dry can keep it in
microwave for a minute. Put it in the mixie and powder it like
rava. For making the modagam, first roast the rava in a tablespoon
of ghee for 2 minutes. In a kadai pour 6 cups of water. Add the
jaggerry. When the jaggerry water boils strain it using a steel
strainer to remove the impurities. After straining pour back the
jaggerry water into the kadai and when the water starts boiling
add the broken rice and the green gram. Mix well. Add a table
Karma 9
spoon of ghee. Keep the flame very low. Close the kadai. The
rice will get cooked in 10 minutes. Open the kadai now and then
mix. Once the rice appears to be cooked, add the grated coconut,
powdered cardamom and one more table spoon of ghee. Switch
of the stove. Allow it to cool for 5 minutes. Make small balls and
steam it in idly pan for 8 minutes.
Ma Vilakku or Mavu Vilakku (Rice flour Deepam)
In Tamilnadu (I am not sure about other states), there is a practice
of making Rice dough with jaggery and lighting a deepam for
our favorite God or Goddesses on auspicious days like AAdi
Velli , Purattasi Sani etc. In olden days sweet was a very rare
item at home and children used to wait for this hand grinded
dough (iditha maavu). Now those days have gone and making
rice flour has become a difficult task. For the sake of youngsters
who have seen their parents keeping maa vilakku regularly and
want to continue it, here is the recipe.
Ingredients
Raw Rice (medium quality) – 200 gms (1 azhakku)
Jaggery-200 gms (powdered 1 cup) while buying go for little bit
white colored jiggery
Cardomom-3
Ghee-2 table spoons
Procedure
Wash the rice nicely and soak for just 10 minutes. Now strain it
and spread it on a newspaper under the fan. Let this dry for just
Karma 10
10 minutes (If it is dried more, you can’t make the flour. Now put
all the rice in the big jar of the mixie and grind at a stretch for 2
minutes. Sieve the rice with the help of a medium holed sieve.
Grind again till everything is done. Powder the jaggery nicely
with a stone or slice it with the help of a knife.
The next part is making the dough. Powder the cardamom along
with a teaspoon of sugar in the small jar and take the powder
alone. Add it to the rice flour. Slowly add the jiggery to the flour
kept in a flat vessel and mix it with your hand. Initially you will
feel Oh how am I going to make the dough. Don’t worry. Surely
dough will turn perfect. If you find it difficult, keep aside the
vessel closed for 5 minutes. Now the dough will be little loose.
Add a teaspoon of Ghee and mix again till your dough is perfect.
Excess jaggery will make the dough watery. In that case extra
flour has to be added. I am sure you will not be short of jaggery
if this measurement is followed. Don’t transfer it into the vessel
in which you light deepam. Put it in a Zip lock bag and keep it in
the vessel in which you want to light the deepam and take to the
temple. Just before lighting transfer it into the vessel. Make the
dough a round ball and keep inside the vessel. Press the centre
of the dough with your thumb. Inside that hole pour half spoon
ghee and light the lamp keeping the thread in the middle, Press
one end of the thread inside the dough nicely so that the thread
stands erect. Now light the lamp and get the blessings of Soolini
Ma, and Vana Durga of Hindu Temple of Ohio.
O ver the past issues we have discussed a few points about
Spirituality as explained in the Upanishads, the Bhagavad-
Gita, and the Ramayana. In this issue we will discuss the
Spirituality found in Mahabharata. I whole heartedly thank
the Almighty and my Swamiji for blessing me with more
opportunities to express my ideas on Spirituality.

The Mahabharata is one of the two major Sanskrit epics of

ancient India, the other being the Ramayana. The epic is part
of the Hindu Itihasa, and forms an important part of Hindu
Philosophy. It is of immense importance to the culture of
the Indian Subcontinent, and is a major text in Hinduism. Its
discussion of the human goals: Dharma (duty), Artha (purpose),
Kama (pleasure), and Moksha (liberation), takes place in a long-
standing tradition, attempting to explain the relationship of the
individual to society, the world and the workings of Karma.

With more than 74,000 verses the Mahabharata is one of the

longest epic poems in the world. It is about four times the size
of the Ramayana. Including the Harivamsa, the Mahabharata
has a total length of more than 90,000 verses. Besides its epic
narrative of the Kurukshetra War and the fates of the Kauravas
and the Pandavas, the Mahabharata contains much philosophical
and devotional material, such as the Shrimad Bhagavad-Gita,
or a discussion of the four “goals of
life,” (purusharthas). The later are
enumerated as Dharma (right action),
Artha (purpose), Kama (pleasure),
and Moksha (liberation). This great
epic was dictated to Lord Ganesha
by the great
sage Veda Vyasa. Since Lord Ganesha cannot find the proper
writing materials, he broke one of his tusks and wrote the epic
on the hill called Meru.
Among the principal works and stories that are a part of the
Mahabharata, the following are very famous. This book is
divided into eighteen “parvas” or books. The parvas are again
subdivided into chapters. The last two chapters are called the
Harivamsa and it tells about the life and death of Lord Krishna.
Here I will describe the eighteen books.

1. Adi Parva The Book of the Beginning (The word “adi” means
first) explains how the Mahabharata came to be narrated by
Sauti to the assembled rishis at Naimisharanya. Vaishampayana
recited the Mahabharata at the Sarpayaga, which was conducted
by Janamejaya. (Vaishampayana is the other name of sage Veda
Vyasa.) The history of the Bharata race is told in detail, and the
book also traces history of the Bhrigu race - The birth and early
life of the Kuru princes.

2. Sabha Parva The Book of the Assembly Hall describes Maya
Danava erecting the palace and court (sabha), at Indraprastha,
the life at the court, Yudhishthira’s Rajasuya Yajna, the game of
dice, and the eventual exile of the Pandavas.
3. Vana Parva (also Aranyaka-parva) The Book of the Forest
covers the twelve years of exile in the forest (aranya).
4. Virata Parva The Book of Virata recounts the year in incognito
spent at the court of Virata.
5. Udyoga Parva The Book of the Effort tells of the preparations
for war and the efforts to bring about peace between the Kurus
and the Pandavas which eventually fail (“udyoga” means effort
or work).
6. Bhishma Parva The Book of Bhishma goes over the first
part of the great battle, with Bhishma as the commander for the
Kauravas and his fall on a bed of arrows.
7. Drona Parva In the Book of Drona, the battle continues, with
Drona as commander. This is the major book of the war. Most
of the great warriors on both sides are dead by the end of this
book.
8. Karna Parva In the Book of Karna, the battle is narrated
again, now with Karna as the commander.
9. Shalya Parva, means “The Book of Shalya.” Here is the
description of the last day of battle, with Shalya as commander.
Told in detail, is the pilgrimage of Balarama to the fords of

the river Saraswati and the mace fight between Bheema
and Duryodhana, which ends the war when Bheema kills
Duryodhana by smashing him on the thighs with a mace.
10. Sauptika Parva (The Book of the Sleeping Warriors)
Ashvattama, Kripa and Kritavarma kill the remaining Pandava
army in their sleep. Only seven warriors remain on the Pandava
side and three on the Kaurava side.
11. Stri Parva (The Book of the Women) Here, Gandhari, Kunti
and the women (stri) of the Kurus and the Pandavas lament
their dead.
12. Shanti Parva (“Shanti” means peace) The Book of Peace
covers the crowning of Yudhisthira as king of Hastinapura, and
the instructions from Bhishma for the newly anointed king on
society, economics, and politics. This is the longest book of the
Mahabharata.
13. Anushasana Parva The Book of the Instructions are the final
instructions from Bhishma (“anushasana” means rules and
regulations).
14. Ashvamedhika Parva The Book of the Horse Sacrifice is the
royal ceremony of the Ashvamedha (Horse Sacrifice) conducted
by Yudhisthira. Also covered is the world conquest by Arjuna.
And the Anugita (supplementary to Srimad Bhagavad-Gita) is
told by Krishna to Arjuna.
15. Ashramavasika Parva (The Book of the Hermitage) In this
book we have the eventual deaths of Dhritarashtra, Gandhari,
and Kunti in a forest fire when they are living in a hermitage
in the Himalayas. Vidura predeceases them and Sanjaya on
Dhritarashtra’s bidding goes to live in the higher Himalayas.
16. Mausala Parva The Book of the Clubs describes the
infighting between the Yadavas with maces (mausala) and the
eventual destruction of theYadavas.
17. Mahaprasthanika Parva (The Book of the Great Journey)
This is the great journey of Yudhisthira and his brothers across
the whole country and finally their ascent of the great Himalayas
where each Pandava falls except for Yudhisthira.
18. Svargarohana Parva (The Book of the Ascent to Heaven)
Here is Yudhisthira’s final test, and the return of the Pandavas
to the spiritual world (svarga).
Out of these eighteen great books, the morality to be adopted
by an individual is mostly taught. The rules and regulations
told in these great books are applicable from the topmost to
the bottommost in society. By adopting the rules, regulations,
and morality of the Mahabharata, one can become a practical
example to the entire world. The intellectual giants like Bishma,
Drona, Yudishtira, and Lord Krishna showed the path that leads
to a peaceful and spiritual life. They are the important rules
and practical lessons for leading a calm, peaceful, and brave,
spiritual life.
Karma 13
In Book 6 (Bhishma Parva) of The Bhagavad-Gita, Krishna
advises and teaches Arjuna when he is riddled with doubt.
These teachings are not only meant for Arjuna but for one and
all in the universe. The teachings match from the day of epics
until today. It will also match well for the future also. As a
great epic, the Mahabharata has put forth an enormous effort
to cultivate spirituality and moralities into the regular lives of
human beings. There is no spiritual partiality in the human race
from emperor to the last citizen.
The core story of the work is that of a dynastic struggle for
the throne of Hastinapura, the kingdom ruled by the Kuru clan.
The two collateral branches of the family that participate in
the struggle are the Kaurava and the Pandava. Although the
Kaurava is the senior branch of the family, Duryodhana, the
eldest Kaurava, is younger than Yudhisthira, the eldest Pandava.
Both Duryodhana and Yudhisthira claim to the first in line to
inherit the throne. The struggle culminates in the great battle of
Kurukshetra, in which the Pandavas are ultimately victorious.
The battle produces complex conflicts of kinship and friendship,
instances of family loyalty and duty taking precedence over
what is right, as well as the converse. The Mahabharata itself
ends with the death of Lord Krishna, and the subsequent end
of his dynasty, and ascent of the Pandava brothers to heaven. It
also marks the beginning of the Hindu age of Kali (Kali Yuga),
the fourth and final age of mankind, where the great values
and noble ideas have crumbled, and man is heading toward the
complete dissolution of right action, morality and virtue.
By reading and understanding the Mahabharata one can easily
understand what humanity is and what all the essentialities
of humanity are. By being the best human the Yudishtira has
shown himself to be the best example for human beings. Even
though he was hurt in many ways, he never backed away from
his Dharma. That’s why he is remembered as Dharmaputra. He
stands as an example of Dharma. He never cared for anything
other than Dharma. The next is Bheema. He stands as an
example for his dedicated devotion. For wherever he was, he
used to worship Lord Shiva. He got a lot of boons from Lord
Shiva. And even though he got lot of boons from Lord Shiva,
he never misused them. The next is Arjuna. He had the closest
relationship with Lord Krishna. Even though he had Lord
Krishna’s closest relationship, he never misused it either. The
next celebrity in the epic is Karna. He is the practical example
of thankfulness and friendship. He even sacrificed his life for
the sake of friendship and thankfulness.
formulated by the greatest scholar Bishma. By following these
rules and regulations one can set a practical example to society,
and one can be the best spiritual human being possible. The
same book contains the “Vishnu Sahasranamam” (one thousand
eight names of Lord Mahavishnu).
Book 14 tells the duties of an emperor or a king. It also details
the procedure of the greatest ritual, called Ashvamedha,
conducted by Yudishtira. Book 15 details about the retired life
of Drutarashtra and his wife. It also describes the last minutes
of Drutharashtra, his wife, and Padava’s mother Kunti. Book
16 tells about the war between the Yadhavas. It is kind of a
family feud. Because of this group infighting the Yadhava
dynasty itself was ruined. Book 17 explains the journey of
Pandavas across the whole country and it contains discussions
of Yudishtira with the god of Dharma. It is considered one of the
most important parts of the great epic. This section tells about
the basic morality to be followed by normal mortal mankind.
Book 18 is the ending of the great epic. It explains the results of
Yudishtira and tells about the return of Pandavas to the spiritual
world.
One cannot become great by simply reading through the books
of spirituality. However, if everybody tries to follow the basic
moralities taught in the holy books; then, society will become
great. There will be no struggles at all. The entire universe will
be a “universe of peace.” As per the sayings of Swamiji Sri
Selvam Siddhar, we all can have a very comfortable living. I
thank the Almighty and Swamiji for giving me this opportunity
to share my thoughts on spirituality. I pray that they continue to
bless me with more and more chances to share my thoughts on
spirituality. Om Shanti.

Just like the aforesaid, there are lots of examples in the entire
epic. These are all on the positive side. The epic has plenty of
examples on the negative sides as well. These examples are
Duriyodana, Duchathana, Sakuni, and many more people. By
looking at these people one can clearly understand how one
should not behave in society.

Out of these eighteen books the 1st to 5th explain the complete
life of the prince, princess, kings and queens. The 6th book to
11th book talks about the battle. The 12th book tells about the
peace. The book number 13 has the standard rules and regulations

said that he had no money nor need for wealth; he was content

Birbal said that the task was fairly simple. If the Brahmin

Birbal advised the Brahmin to shout at anyone who would call
him Panditji from now on.

did not like him since he scolded them often. They were just
waiting for an opportunity to get back at him. Birbal told the
children that the Brahmin would get really irritated if they
would start calling him Panditji. The children started calling
him Panditji and the Brahmin as advised by Birbal started
shouting at them. The children spread the word to all the other
children in the neighborhood that Sevaram hated being called
Panditji, so they in turn all started calling him Panditji. After a
while, Sevaram got tired of scolding them but everyone already
was used to call him Panditji. Hence the game was over but the
name stuck.
The Three Questions
King Akbar was very fond of Birbal. This made a certain
courtier very jealous. Now this courtier always wanted to be
chief minister, but this was not possible as Birbal filled that
position. One day Akbar praised Birbal in front of the courtier.
This made the courtier very angry and he said that the king
praised Birbal unjustly and if Birbal could answer three of his
questions, he would accept the fact that Birbal was intelligent.
Akbar always wanted to test Birbals wit readily agreed.
The three questions were
1. How many stars are there in the sky?
2. Where is the centre of the Earth?
3. How many men and how many women are there in the world?
Immediately Akbar asked Birbal the three questions and
informed him that if he could not answer them, he would have
to resign as chief minister.
To answer the first question, Birbal brought a hairy sheep and
said there are as many stars in the sky as there is hair on the
sheep’s body. My friend the courtier is welcome to count them
if he likes.
To answer the second question, Birbal drew a couple of lines
on the floor and bore an iron rod in it and said, this is the centre
of the Earth, the courtier may measure it himself if he has any
doubts.
In answer to the third question, Birbal said Counting the exact
number of men and women in the world would be a problem
as there are some specimens like our courtier friend here who
cannot easily be classified as either. Therefore if all people
like him are killed, then and only then can one count the exact
number.
The Golden Goose
Once upon a time there lived a queen in the city of Benaras. Her
name was Khema and she was the wife of King Bahuputraka,
which means ‘father of many sons’. One night, the Queen
had a dream of a beautiful golden goose that spoke with great
wisdom, almost as if he was a sage. She told her husband that
Karma 21
she desperately wanted to see a bird just like the one that she had
seen in her dream.
So the King asked his ministers to find out all that they could
about a bird such as this. He was told that such a bird did exist
but was extremely rare and difficult to find. They advised him to
build a beautiful lake on the outskirts of Benaras so that he may
attract such rare and lovely creatures to reside there. In this way
the queen might have her wish.
Towards the north, on Mount Cittakuta, there lived about ninety
thousand wild geese headed by a beautiful golden goose called
King Dhatarattha. He got to hear of this exquisite lake that was
surrounded by flowers and trees and had lovely water lilies and
lotuses floating on the surface. The king had named this lake
after his wife Khema and had invited all the birds to come and
live on it, promising that none of them would ever be harmed.
Corn was scattered on a daily basis in order to attract the birds.
So a couple of geese went up to their King and told him that they
were quite tired of living up on the mountains and would like to
see this wonderful lake where they had been promised food and
protection.
The king agreed to their request and took the whole flock down
south towards Benaras.
Meanwhile, at the lake the King had placed hunters all around in
order to capture any golden goose that happened to pass by. So
the next morning when the headhunter saw this flock of geese
approaching he was very excited to see their golden leader. He
immediately went about setting up a snare amongst the water
lilies and lotuses, as he knew that the leader would definitely be
the first to alight.
The whole flock came flying down in one mighty swoop and
as expected it was the King’s foot that touched the water first.
He was ensnared and could not escape. Seeing this the other
geese flew into a panic and honked in distress. But none had
the courage to try to free their king and so flew back to Mount
Cittacuta for safety. All except one. He was the chief captain,
Sumukha.
His King entreated him to fly to safety too, as he would surely
be captured if he stayed by his side. But Sumukha replied that he
would never desert his master in the face of danger and would
either try to save him or die by his side.
At this point the head huntsman approached and as Sumukha
saw him he decided to appeal to his compassion. The hunter
asked the King how come he had not noticed the trap that was
set. The golden goose replied that when one’s time was up it
was no use to struggle against what was fated and one must
just accept it. The huntsman was very impressed with his grace
and wisdom. He then turned to Sumukha and asked why he
had not fled with the other birds even though he was free to do
so. Sumukha answered that this was his King, best friend and
master and that he could never desert him even at the cost of his
own life.
Karma 22
Hearing this the hunter realized that these were a couple of rare
birds of great nobility. And were he to harm them, the gods
would certainly punish him. Besides, he did not much care for
his own King’s reward and decided to do the right thing and set
them free. He told Sumukha that as he was ready to die for his
King he would set them both free to fly wherever they may.
He then set loose the foot of the golden goose and washed the
wound clean. And when he made an attempt to fix the dislocated
muscle “lo behold”.. the foot was miraculously whole again as
if it had never been hurt. Sumukha greatly blessed the hunter
for his act of compassion and his King asked whether he had set
the trap for himself or at someone else’s command. The hunter
answered that he had done it on the orders of his own King.
He then went on to narrate to them the whole story about the
queen’s dream and her wish to see this rare golden goose.
On hearing this, the golden goose decided to go and meet the
monarch, as he knew that the hunter would receive his reward.
He had also heard about the wisdom and goodness of King
Bahuputakka and thought that if he appeared out of his own free
will, the monarch might allow him and his flock to come visit
the lake. He therefore asked the hunter to take him to his King.
The hunter advised him against it because he was worried that
his monarch might imprison these two lovely creatures.
But the golden goose explained that just as they had been able
to soften a hunter’s heart it should not be too difficult to do the
same to a great and noble King. He asked him to do his duty and
leave the rest to him.
So the hunter set out to go to the palace accompanied by these
two noble, gorgeous creatures. Needless to say that the King
and Queen were absolutely delighted to see these two beautiful
birds. The King set them on a golden perch and fed them himself,
with honey, grain and sweetened milk. Then he spent the whole
night discussing kingship and all its duties with this King of
Geese. The golden goose did his best to offer good advice and
encouragement in accordance with his wisdom.
In the morning he thanked the King and Queen for their hospitality
and friendship and flew back to his flock accompanied by his
faithful friend and chief captain Sumukha.

 ( By His Holiness, Param Pujya Maharishi Swamiji Sri Selvam Siddhar )
Our Vedic system recognizes 27 Nakshatra or constellation.
(Sometimes 28, if we include Abhijit Nakshatra which is an
integral part of Ultarashada).
The Nakshatra system is unique to the Vedic system and gives it
much higher level of accuracy. It is believed that the Nakshatra
system was prevalent before the sign system was even recognized.
Each planet, house, sensitive point in zodiac is influenced by the
Nakshatra it occupies at a particular time. We are describing the
results of placement of Moon in each Nakshatra (since this is the
most important tool in Vedic astrology).
The results of your Moon in the Nakshatra (since this is the most
important tool in vedic astrology).Your birth Nakshatra (Janma
Nakshatra) determines your thinking patter, nature as well as
basic destiny. It also determines the instincts as well as the
subconscious aspects of the personality
Various House in the Atharava Vedic Astrogy
According to older Hindu texts, the words signs and houses fall
on each other, but the count of the signs is always made from
Aries which is the first sign. If we say a planet is in the first
sign, it means that he is in Aries. If we say, it is in the fifth sign,
it will be in Leo. If we say, it is in the twelfth sign, it will be in
Pisces because Pisces is the last and the twelfth sign. We must
remember that when referring to a sign we always count Aries as
the first and then proceed in the regular order of the signs.
But a house begins from the ascendant. We must first know which
is the sign ascending at the particular moment at a particular
place. The Earth is globular. It is like a globe with the sky all
around. There is no part of the sky which is not to the east of
any locality of the Earth. We can explain this further by giving a
practical example. The Sun always appears to be somewhere on
the ecliptic. In fact, he is not on the ecliptic; it is the Earth which
is on the ecliptic and as viewed from the Earth, the Sun appears
to be in line with some place on the ecliptic. Now this Sun at any
time appears in the east, in some part or the other of the Earth.
So we may state that as the zodiac is a circular ring in the skies,
though in fact it is elliptic, going all round, some part of the ring,
i.e., the zodiac is on the eastern horizon somewhere.
Now suppose that at a particular time the sign Leo is rising at the
eastern horizon. Then Leo will constitute the first house Virgo

Malefic and benefic:
Planets are termed natural benefic and natural malefic. Jupiter,
Venus, Mercury and increasing Moon are natural benefic planets;
Saturn, Mars, decreasing Moon, Raaghu and Kethu are natural
malefic planets. If Mercury joins a natural malefic, he does not
remain auspicious. As regards the Moon, she is auspicious from
10th day of dark fortnight through the 5th day of bright fortnight.
Apart from the above, planets are classified as favorable and ad-
verse based on births under the 12 different ascendants. These are
Karma 30
narrated below:
Aries: Benefic planets are Jupiter and the Sun. Malefic planets are
Saturn, Mercury and Venus. Venus is the prime killer. Jupiter will
give inauspicious results if he is conjunct with an adverse planet.
However, when with Saturn, he is not wholly adverse.
Taurus: Saturn and the Sun are benefic planets and can cause Raja
yoga. Jupiter, Venus and Moon are not auspicious and may prove
death inflicting planets. Mercury can cause some good Yoga.
Gemini: Venus is the only benefic. Mars, Sun and Jupiter are in-
auspicious. Saturn and Jupiter together behave in the same man-
ner as for Aries birth. The Moon is the prime killer. (Some replace
the Moon with Saturn).
Cancer: Mercury and Venus are malefic planets. Mars, Jupiter
and Moon are auspicious. Mars is a supreme Rajayoga karaka.
Saturn is capable of inflicting death and is known as Maraka lord
of this sign.
Leo: Inauspicious planets are Mercury, Venus and Saturn. Mars,
Jupiter and the Sun are benefic planets. Jupiter with Venus cannot
give fully benefic results. Saturn is Maraka and the Moon’s ef-
fects depend on her association.
Virgo: Mars, Jupiter and the Moon are adverse. Venus is the only
favorable planet. Mars is a Maraka lord.
Libra: Saturn and Mercury prove auspicious. The moon and Mer-
cury are capable of conferring great benefits and position. Jupiter,
the Sun and Mars are inauspicious. Mars is a Maraka lord. Venus
gives balanced results for this ascendant, if uninflected by others.
Scorpio: Jupiter, and the Moon are benefic planets, the Moon and
the Sun are Rajayoga planets. Mercury and Venus give inauspi-
cious effects. Saturn gives mixed results. Jupiter, if ill related will
become a Maraka. Mars is also of mixed nature.
Sagittarius: Venus is adverse. Mercury, Mars and the Sun are
yogakaraakas. If the Sun joins Mercury he will also become a
Rajayoga Karaka. Saturn is a killer apart from Venus.
Capricorn: Mars, Jupiter and the Moon are inauspicious. Venus
and Mercury are beneficial. Saturn is not a Maraka lord, while
Mars etc. may prove as killers.
Aquarius: Jupiter, Moon and Mars produce adverse results. Ve-
nus and Saturn are exclusively benefic. Mars and Jupiter are kill-
ers. If others are related to one of these two, they will also become
adverse.
Pisces: Saturn, Venus, Mercury and the Sun are classified as un-
favorable. Mars and Moon are auspicious. They are Yoga karakas.
Saturn and Mercury are Marakas.

Hindu Temple and Gwinnett Police of Georgia are sued for $
56 Million Plus
Dayton, Ohio: The Nation’s largest RICO (Racketeer Influenced
and Corrupt Organization) violation and conspiracy lawsuit, civil
rights violation against Gwinnett County Police Department and
Hindu Temple of Atlanta was filed in the federal court in Georgia
on September 08, 2010. The Plaintiffs claim a minimum of $
56 million as damages, and RICO violations normally yield 3
times the damage, which could bring the Plaintiffs a total award
of more than $200 Million. This RICO and conspiracy lawsuit
is the biggest lawsuit filed against a Hindu Temple and a Police
Department in the whole nation.
Hindu Indian Americans have achieved
many good things, good name, fame and
they are pioneers in making charitable

different sectors in the community. Many famous Hindu Temples
are very successful in a peaceful way; however, the greediness,
ego, gossip, evilness sometimes cause some individuals to get
into wrong doings. The painful thing to understand is that a local
temple in the USA, Hindu Temple of Atlanta Inc., in Riverdale,
Georgia, has come into the limelight for its Trustees’ serious and
notorious activities.
A Federal lawsuit has been filed in the United States District Court,
Northern District of Georgia on 8th September 2010 alleging very
serious violations including civil rights violations, conspiracy,
and RICO (Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organization).This
makes the Complaint very interesting reading.
Gwinnett County, Georgia, is one of the richest counties in the state
of Georgia, and the Hindu Temple of Atlanta is approximately an
hour drive south from Gwinnett County. Hindu Temple of Atlanta
has approximately 50 trustees who are mega millionaires and most
of them are physicians. Under belief and information the Temple
Board always consists of only one group of Indian American
community who speak the Indian dialogue Telugu. As reported
by lot of local Indian Americans, the Temple has a lot of politics
and internal fights about who is big and who is rich in the Temple.
In the year 2006 another Hindu Temple was started, The Hindu
Temple of Georgia, in a peaceful way without any group politics
or fights. This peaceful and cooperative character attracted the
majority of the Indian American community to this new temple.
Valmikinathan P. Raghunathan
The instant

 Chandramohan Loganathan
growth, name, fame literally bothered
Hindu Temple of Atlanta and the rich
millionaire trustees. The recent lawsuit
filed in the federal court alleges that
the Hindu Temple of Atlanta started a
conspiracy to destroy Hindu Temple of
Georgia. The lawsuit also alleges a small
group of conspirators, for their own
material benefits conspired each other and,
in the latter stages, a county police officer
Investigator Paul Cwalina joined with the
conspirators’ team to destroy the Hindu
Temple of Georgia.
The regular readers of our magazine
are fully aware that the large number of
millionaire trustees of Hindu Temple of
Atlanta who minted money through their
medical profession serving as a Trustees of
the Temple are still facing their criminal
charges in India and they have sort an
injunction order regarding their criminal
case in the Indian High Court, Chennai
India. A local Georgia magazine, Khabar,
and a few of its owners are also facing
criminal charges in India now. Some
local Indian American folks reported to
our reporter that lot of money have been
Kalaiselvi Vasudevan
Karma 38
Ananthi Palamuthu
funneled to destroy the Hindu Temple of
Georgia and their priests / pundits. The list
of the conspiracy activity as reported in the
Lawsuit is a mind boggling one.
The lawsuit alleges that a Hindu Temple of
Atlanta member / follower, Valmikinathan
P. Raghunathan had been instituted as a
team leader to achieve the goal (“Destroy
Hindu Temple of Georgia”). He is believed
to be the former Trustee of the local very
small Tamil Sangam. However, some local
Tamil speaking Indian Americans reported
that the association / sangam where which
Valmikinathan P. Raghunathan held a
Trustee position was “Sangam for Sandai”
( Sandai means Fight ). He goes by the
name Valmiki and is believed to be in his
mid 50’s, and started an IT corporation
named Blue Shift India Private Limited
in Chennai and Atlanta, Georgia. The
corporation has been operating at a loss
for a long time as per the information we
gathered. The lawsuit alleges that he has
started terrorist threats, bomb blasts threats
to destroy the Hindu Temple of Georgia and
it’s the Priests of the Temple. Investigator
Paul Cwalina from the Gwinnett County
Dr. Ravi Sarma
Muthukrishnan Veeraiah
Police Department investigated this case
and gave a false police statement to his
own Police Department to acquit Valmiki
out of the alleged Terrorist Bomb Threat.
The lawsuit identifies three local Indian
Americans as the primary organizers of the
conspiracy. First one is Valmiki, second
one is his brother Sundaram Raghunathan
who is believed to be in his mid 60s,
and the third one is Chandramohan
Loganathan, who under belief and
information is the owner of Kumon Math
Tuition Center in Kennesaw, Georgia.
He is the husband of Ananthi Palamuthu;
who goes by the name as Ana Palamuthu.
Another interesting character is Dr. Selvi
Rengasamy Vasudevan, a pediatrician
from New Jersey, who speaks south Indian
dialogue Tamil, and who is the sister of
Ananthi Palamuthu. The lawsuit alleges
the three men, Dr. Selvi Rengasamy
Vasudevan, and another two conspirators
committed many serious criminal and civil
wrong doings.
Valmiki recently arrested by the Fulton
County police in Georgia for a sexual
battery.
Dr.Hymavathy Mikkilineni
The victim alleges that Valmiki committed
a sexual assault and battery on her, the
wife of a Holy Priest. An eye witness of
the incident was Mr. Jesse W. Hill, who
has been in law practice for more than
37 years in Georgia. He testified in the
Magistrate Court that the sexual battery
happened in front of his eyes in the United
States courthouse, and that Valmiki held
the victim’s shoulder and pumped on her
buttocks with his sexual organ numerous
times; now he is waiting for his criminal
trial. Valmiki, his brothers Sundaram,
Chandramohan Loganathan have their
pending arrest warrants in India, too, and
they are badly wanted by Indian Police
Department now. The Conspiracy and
the bad side of this story does not stop
here. Yes! These people have also beaten
physically Hindu Priests who were taken
to the Hospital by Ambulance.
Its very interesting to note some exhibits
attached to the lawsuit which clearly prove
without any doubt even to a layman in this
nation about the clear conspiracy, and the
very bad action of a local police cop who
completely misused his police powers
repeatedly. Local Sheriff R.L. “Butch”
Conway also helped these conspirators by
using the police powers even to dismiss
the arrest warrant issued in Gwinnett
County and pending criminal charges in
another county. The RICO lawsuit is a
very serious federal lawsuit which is going
to demand the whole fortune of these
people and if the Plaintiff win the lawsuit,
they are expected to be awarded with more
than 180 million dollars. Normally in a
lawsuit filed by a Plaintiff lot of things will
Sundaram Raghunathan
be subjective, and many things would be
one person’s word against other persons.
However, in this lawsuit Plaintiffs contend
that everything is objective and the paper
work, email, recorded conversations from
the Defendants’ side completely establish
the conspiracy, civil rights violation to
any normal minded person in the whole
nation. Sometimes greediness make the
human to commit extreme wrongdoings,
breaking all the ethics in their life, and
this particular lawsuit fits that pattern
100% . A rumor says that there is a chance
of adding few more defendants in this
lawsuit, like one of the richest mall owners
in Norcross, GA who has a God’s name,
an appointed Trustee of a Bankruptcy
case in the Northern District of Georgia, a
local cable TV reporter, and the owner of a
small Indian American magazine which is
published locally.
One of the nation’s most famous civil
rights and RICO lawyers from Ohio, Mr.
John Scaccia, and veteran Atlanta lawyer
Mr. Jesse W. Hill are representing the
Plaintiffs. This lawsuit will definitely give
an end for the internal politics, group fights
in lot of Indian Hindu Temples in this
country. Few of the alleged conspirators
in the lawsuit, their business partners are
also facing lot of problems in India. One
of the business partners Muthukrishnan
Veeriah, a Tamil speaking Indian is now
under a serious criminal investigation by
the CBCID (Crime Branch Investigation
Department) which is the specialized
wing in Tamil Nadu Police, India who
were taken into the custody recently
who are the alleged conspirators in India
and now they may be imprisoned at any
time in India. Those people are under
investigation for Fraud, Cheating, Forgery,
Money Laundering, Conspiracy, and
Seema Patel
Cyber Crime. The Indian partners of the
three main Indian American Defendants
in this new lawsuit are also facing another
four criminal cases and expecting their
conviction order from Judge at any
time. Two Individuals, Kannan, and
Vijayaraghavan from India who are the
business partners of Valmiki, Sundaram,
and Chandramohan Loganathan are also
facing serious criminal charges in India
including “an Attempt Murder Charge”.
One of the Indian Local regional weekly
Magazine owners, Nakkeeran Gopal,
and his editors are also facing criminal
charges for extortion attempted against the
Plaintiffs with serious threats.
This is a shame to the Indian American
Community in this nation, where they
have earned an excellent reputation for
their good behavior. However, this kind
of news literally makes the main stream
Americans feel that Indian American
people are bad people. When we spoke
to couple of plaintiffs in the lawsuit they
were literally crying and when we listened
to the pain and suffering which they
underwent by this big conspiracy is really
immense and we really do not have words
to express their pain and suffering caused
by the conspiracy. Please make sure
that you look for the next month Karma
magazine to get more feedback about this
high profile white collar crime, conspiracy
, Civil Rights Violation in which a local
Hindu Temple and the local police
department took an extensive part. Please

Hanuman Chalisa, the holy devotional work written by Goswami
Tulsidas in the sixteenth century, has gained enormous popularity
among Hindus living the world over. With the blessings of
Sri Hanuman, Goswami Tulsidas has also written Ramayana
in Hindi and this Tulsi Ramayana is known as Ram Charitha
Manas. Tulsi Ramayana has revolutionized the Ram Bhakti
movement by enabling common man to recite the glorious
legend of Sri Rama in Hindi.
The Power of Sri Hanuman
Sri Hanuman is understood as great jnani, yogi and a brahmachari
(bachelor). He has been blessed as chiranjivi, one who lives
eternally. The blessings of Shiva, Vishnu, Brahma, Surya, Indra,
and Vayu made Sri Hanuman invincible. He is the great lover
of music and also mastered the Sanskrit language. Being the
Yogacharya, Sri Hanuman is considered as an embodiment
of the four yogas. His strength, velour, prowess, will power,
memory, balanced emotions, sharp intellect, fearlessness, and
noble actions were perfectly refined and grounded in spirituality.
None in the world can equal Sri Hanuman. He had only one
thought--that of serving his Sri Rama with utmost humility and
devotion. He serves, protects and inspires the devotees of Sri
Rama. He holds the flag with fish symbols. Sri Hanuman Chalisa
praises the selfless service, courage, humble disposition, and
foremost devotion shown by Sri Hanuman towards Sri Rama.
Sri Hanuman will present Himself with folded hands in prayer
wherever and whenever the Holy name of Sri Rama is recited.
Sri Hanuman always loves to hear the mantra ‘Sri Ramajeyam.’
Just chant ‘Sri Ramajeyam’ mantra 108 times and pray to Sri
Hanuman. Here’s how to recite one of the popular Hindu chants
and mantras, the Hanuman Chalisa.
Story of Sri Hanuman.
Punjikasthala was serving as an attendant of Sri Brihaspati, the
guru of the gods. Due to her mistake, she was cursed to assume
the body of a female monkey. Her curse would be removed once
if she gives birth to an incarnation of Shiva. Due to this curse,
Punjikasthala was born as Anjana. She lived a pure and chaste
Karma 44
life with her husband Kesari. To mitigate from the curse, she
performed intense austerities for many years, and worshipped
Shiva. King Dasaratha of Ayodhya has performed a sacrifice for
progeny (Putra Kameshti Yagam). He was blessed with a golden
bowl of Divine Beverage (Payasam) and he shared the beverage
among his three wives - Kausalya, Kaikeyi and Sumitra. He was
blessed with three male children through his three wives and the
children were named as Rama (son of Kausalya), Bharata (Son
of Kaikeyi), Lakshmana and Satrughna (Twin Sons of Sumitra).
Sri Rama is said to be the reincarnation of Lord Vishnu. Sri
Jambavan is said to be the reincarnation of Lord Brahma. Sri
Hanuman is considered as an incarnation of Lord Shiva.
Lord Shiva was pleased with Anjana’s devotion, and decided
that he would mitigate Anjana’s curse. To make it to happen, by
divine ordinance, a kite snatched the bowl with a fragment of
pudding. The kite, while flying over the forest, dropped the bowl
where Anjana was observing penance. Vayu, the Lord of wind,
directed and delivered the bowl of pudding to the outstretched
hands of Anjana. On consumption of the divine pudding, Anjana
gave birth to Sri Hanuman. After the birth of Sri Hanuman,
Anjana was released from the curse. She wanted to get back to
heaven. Sri Hanuman inquired about His future and she assured
him that he could never be destroyed. Later, the blessings of
all the gods made Hanuman invincible. Sri Hanuman adopted
Surya, the Sun god, as his guru. Over a short period of time, Sri
Hanuman mastered all the scriptures. As a token of respect, Sri
Hanuman offered himself to assist and help Sugriva, the son of
Surya (lived in Kishkindha). At Kishkindha, Sri Hanuman met
Sri Rama (the Prince of Ayodhya) and his brother Lakshmana.
The brothers came in search of Rama’s wife, Sita. Actually Sita
was abducted by the demon Ravana.
When Sri Rama revealed His identity as Lord Vishnu, Hanuman
fell prostrate before him and Rama picked him up and clasped
him to his bosom. From then onwards, the story of Sri Hanuman
is inextricably interwoven with that of Sri Rama, and is
exhaustively dealt with in the Ramayana. Sri Hanuman also
finds a place in another important epic, Mahabharata. He was
blessing the Pandavas in the battle of Kurukshetra by positioning
himself on the flag of Arjuna’s chariot and he was stabilizing and
protecting the side.
Why the Name Hanuman Chalisa? Goswami Tulsidas wrote
these forty verses in the praise of Sri Hanuman. Forty in Hindi
is called ‘chalis.’ The hymn containing forty verses is called
‘Chalisa.’ Each such verse is called a chaupai (means 4 legs)
and each chaupai of the Chalisa has two lines each--the two
always rhyme. Hanuman Chalisa is simple and is the utmost
rhythmical poem. The chalisa is sung in different tunes (more
than 100) across the world. Even if you don’t understand Hindi,
you may enjoy hearing it.Based on the structure and content
of Hanuman Chalisa, the devotees have identified three parts
- the invocation or preamble, the main body (chalisa) and the
final prayer and request. Hanuman Chalisa speaks about Sri
Hanuman’s parentage, his physique and intelligence, valor and
heroic acts, devotion to Sri Rama and Sita.

Reciting specific hymns.
After attending many discourses, I have understood that the
recitation of specific Hindu prayers and hymns in Hanuman
Chalisa will bestow specific results. I have compiled specific
number of the Hymns and the benefits:
1) Chanting the Opening Invocation Hymn of Hanuman Chalisa

insulted knowingly/ unknowingly one’s preceptor/ a Rama
Bhakta. The hardships in your life will be relieved and you will

The following are the special Atharva Vedic Prodosham Days @
Hindu Temple of Ohio
September 20, 2010 – Soma Pradosham – Monday,: October
5, 2010 – Bhauma Pradosha – Tuesday: October 20, 2010 –

December 18, 2010 – Sani Maha Pradosh – Saturday.
Details of Atharva Vedic Pradosha Purana, - how Lord Shiva, the
most Compassionate, decided to drink the poison to save world.
Worshipping Lord Shiva which was installed with Atharva Vedic
Way on the Pradosha pooja time is one of the most sacred and
important according to PRADOSHA PURANA.
Once the gods (Devas) and the demons (Asuras) were churning
the milky ocean with the help of Vasuki, the serpent king, hoping
to extract amrtam (nectar) from the Kseerabthi (milk ocean).
Vasuki who was employed as a rope for churning, endured
severe abrasions and strangulation. Thereupon, she spewed
halahalam, a potent dark poison capable of destroying the
worlds. Threatened by the scorching venom, the celestials fled
in great horror. Brahma took to His heels. Vishnu’s bluish body
darkened further. Indra could not be seen. Agni, the fire god,
could not bear the raging heat. Yama ran amuck in all directions.
Varuna became unconscious, Kubera fled. Hosts of siddhas,
Caranas, Gandharvas, Yakshas and Maharshis went to Kailasa
and sought the Lord’s feet as refuge.
Lord Shiva was moved with pity at their plight and was overcome
with compassion by their prayers. Soon He bade Sundara for
a prompt intervention, who then rushed to the ocean, collected
the all-pervasive poison and holding it in his hand as a small
jambu fruit, returned to Kailasa. The Lord became exceedingly
happy after seeing it. He showed it to Girija and gave the title
‘Halahala’ to Sundara, who thenceforth came to be known as
Halahala Sundara. Thereupon, the Lord accepted the Halahala
pellet from his hand and, with the loving permission of Universal
Mother, swallowed it. By Goddess Uma’s command, the pellet
froze in the Lord’s throat, painting it blue and becoming an
embellishment, gave Him the name Nilakanta. [It is also a
common practice for womanhood to worship Goddess Parvathi
for long life of Husbands as She is having ‘Maangalya Baagyam’
and could turn the poison into nectar].
On Trayodhasi(thirteenth moon day) they realized their sin of
not praying the God and pleaded for forgiveness. The pleased
graceful Lord Shiva forgave them and danced between the
horns of the Nandhi (Holy Bull). That time is called
Pradhosham. Whoever Prays Lord Shiva in
that time; Lord Shiva fulfills their
wishes and gives them
mukthi. Anoint
Lord Shiva with
Love, He would
give Himself!
Among the
poojas performed
by Shaivites to the
Graceful Lord Shiva,
the Pradosha Pooja plays
an important role. In
Shukla Paksha (15 moon
days from new moon to full
moon) and Krishna Paksha
(15 moon days from full moon
to new moon) the evening of the
Trayodasi (thirteenth moon day)
between 4.30 pm to 6.00 p.m. is
called “Pradosham”. It comes once
in fifteen moon days. Pradosha time
is to Pray Lord Shiva and invoke His
Blessings. Praying in this time will
free us from sins and gives Moksha
(hence the name Pradosha). During Pradosha
time, a special type of circumambulating called “Somasutra
Pradakshinam” which is elaborated separately.
Somasuthra Pradakshinam is a unique way of circumambulating
the GOD.
First saluting the Rishabha Devar (Holy Bull or Nandi) go
anti-clockwise and salute Chandikeshwarar (not crossing
the Gomukhi). Now return in the clockwise manner salute
Rishabham and continue clockwise till the Gomukhi (not to
cross it again). Then return in anti-clockwise direction salute
the Rishabham again and proceed towards chaNdIshar. From
there return back clockwise without worshiping Rishabham
and reach the Gomukhi. Finally return back anticlockwise from
there to salute Rishabham and continue to Chandikeshwarar
and return back to Rishabham and worship the Shiva Lingam
(at the altar) by viewing through the space between the two
horns of the Holy Bull. This is one Pradakshinam. Three such
times Pradakshinam to be done. If you carefully observe the
curve traced by doing the pradakshinam is very similar to the
periphery of the crescent. Hence this way of circumambulating
is called Somasutra Pradakshinam. During the Athrava
Vedic pradhosham time Somasootra Pradakshinam is the
recommended way of circumambulating the God. In many
of the temples this is followed always. A point to note here is
that the gomukhi is never crossed. gomukhi is the place where
the water after anointing (abhisheka theertham) would be
flowing northwards out. By doing this way of
Pradakshinam one does not step over this
holy water.
Dear Devotees, please understand

A state of discomfort and less support
will prevail this month Lord Saturn
in the Kanya which looked by
Jupiter with total opposition of Lord Jupiter, will be creating a
confusioned stage in the affairs of profession. The Hopes are not
reaching to the shelter of success. You have to manage the first
two weeks of this month with patience. Then the circumstance
will have a moulding of adjustability.
Women and children at home:
The atmosphere at home will be in an ordinary trend. The
programs and plans will have a delay. Children will be dull and
unadjustable.
Students:
In the beginning of month there is no clear picture in study-
program. Some thing they are expecting but some thing else will
occur. Have a deep consultation with their self and manage to
reach a good decision.
Business people, professionals and employees:
They are going to witness a scene of suspense and the hopes
will be facing a complicated scene. However Lord Sun balances
for profit.
Lovers:
Lord Venus is giving a poor response and the anxiety will be
reduing day to day abnormal delay will create anger.
Married persons and spouses:
Their enthusiasm reduces and a feeling of dissatisfaction
will rise. The plans which were formatted are going with
different way. Have little patient and restart their project after a
considerable gape of 3 weeks. The Health of the spouse is also
weak now. This month is a very normal month.
Cautious days:
17th, 18th and 19th are critical.

Rishabam:
You are going to enter into a clutch with one
side the support of Lord Saturn and other
side the opposition of Lord Mars. This will
create argument and objections. How are
you going to manage? It is a new experience with a set back or
loss, the mater will move. Better postpone your claim for next
month.
Women and children at home:
At the needy hour the things are not reaching. To adjust the
circumstances, even though they have planned well, the
difficulties are crossing. A normal month with big burden, this
month will pass. Children are not satisfied with the elders. They
need much more things and comforts.
Students:
In their study program, they will be facing confusion and
difficulties. A gloomy atmosphere will reach and challenge their
enthusiasm.
Business people, professionals and employees:
The finance flow will have a set back. The routine job and trade
will be ahead with progress. Some new proposal will come and
keep them with spirit. The future benefit is there. At present it is
in a very ordinary level.
Lovers:
A month with silent affairs is going ahead The bright scene is not
there. They are finding a delayed and slowly moving response.
Their Lovers theme and expectations are in comfort. But the
actual process under confusion. The clear decision will come
only after 3 weeks.
Married persons and spouses:
The domestic administration and educational expenses are more
and they are unable to spend time with spouse. Due to burden,
their opinions of travel and festival are all postponed. Actually
speaking a dissatisfaction is prevailing. This month is such since
Lords Kethu and Sun are occupying in Mithunam.
Cautious days:
3rd and 4th are to be dealt very cautiously.

 The motherhood of God
Navaratri is a festival in which God is adored as Mother.
Hinduism is the only religion in the world which has
emphasised to such an extent the motherhood of God.
To celebrate a good harvest and to propitiate the nine planets,
women also plant nine different kinds of food grain seeds in
small containers during these nine days and then offer the young
saplings to the goddess.

Navratri is celebrated twice in a year:

First Navratas are celebrated in the bright two-week period of Shukla
Paksha of the lunar month ofAshwani, corresponding to September/
October) from the 1st to the 9th date of the two week period
Second Navratras are celebrated during the first nine days of
the bright two-week period of Shukla Paksha of the lunar
month of Chaitra, corresponding to mid-March to mid-April.

The timing of these Navratras relate to the autumnal and vernal

equinox that is also the time when seasons change and we
harvest crops which adds to the glory of these revelry.

Navratri’s each night is dedicated to one form of Goddess

Durga. That is every ratri of the Navratri corresponds to worship
of different forms of Maa Durga.

This embraces Maa Shailputri, who was the daughter of

Parvatraj Himalaya (King of the Mountain), wife of Lord Shiva
and mother of Ganesha and Kartikeya;

Some may also say that the nine days are divided and devoted
to the Trinity of God worshipped in a female form in which for
three days Maa Durga (Goddess of valor) is worshipped, for
three days Maa Lakshmi (Goddess of Wealth) and three days for
Maa Saraswati (Goddess of Knowledge and Art). On the fifth
day, that is, Lalita Panchami books are gathered, lamp is lighted
to invoke Saraswati. The eighth and ninth day, Yagna (sacrifice
offered to the fire) is performed to honour heavenly Goddess and
bid her farewell.
Navratras are celebrated with great vehemence especially in
West Bengal where it is known as “Durga Pooja”. The Hindus in
Gujarat celebrate it with nine days of Garba dance. In Chhattarpur
Temple in Delhi, over a million devotees visit during these days.
During this period most of the Hindus go to Temples for prayers.
At some places, clay idols of Goddess Durga are adorned with
different weapons in her eight arms, riding a lion, with demon
Maheshasur lying dead at her feet. For eight days these idols are
worshipped and then immersed in river or sea-shore on the ninth
day with great fanfare.
This period of Navratri also allows for recitation of sacred
scriptures such as Durga Sapshudi from Markanday Puran. This
narrates how Goddess Durga was blessed and provided with
weapons by our Trinity of Gods to annihilate Maheshasur, the
demon who had forced Gods to leave heaven and take refuge
on earth. Musical recitations (Kirtans) by famous musicians are
offered for the benefit of the Goddess and devotees.
