Review for Shree Maharishi Bhrigu Ashram, Trabuco Canyon, CA, USA
Hi All,
I have been attending the jyotish classes that take place at Bhrigu Meditation Center every weekend. The classes are really deep, foundational and insightful. They enlighten both the newbies in astrology as well as the ones already known to the subject. GuruJi Sh. Sanjay Ji has already covered the significations of the twelve houses, 12 Signs and Planets, derivation and significance of Navamsa, significance of Nakshatras, Rahu and Ketu as Chhaya Grahas - their derivation mathematically and their significance in predictive.
In the last class GuruJi covered Bhrigu Bindu which is a very sensitive point in ones chart. It is derived through the longitudes of Rahu and Moon and signifies the primary karma of the native in this life time.
GuruJi explained about Rahu from Varaha Avatar as being the one bringing the child from the womb of the mother to the outer world so that he can breathe. Therefore Rahu being the graha giving guts and taking the native from one side to the other side was really amazing! It represents reaping the consequences of karma of the previous incarnation. It is the Bhog Karak or the Maya Karak.
Similarly, GuruJi explained that Moon on the other hand represents the mind which carries the impressions of the past janmas. Whatever are the impressions from the past births are the root cause of this janma. Rahu makes it happen while Moon is the carrier.
Therefore, Desires of Previous Life + What one has to bhog gives the principle karma that one has to go through and that is how Bhrigu Bindu was derived.
GuruJi, after teaching the mathematical and predictive part took all of our charts one by one and showed us how we could apply the principle in our charts and deduce the primary karma that the native has to go through. It was truly amazing and an eye opener! Then GuruJi also showed us how we could apply transit on this point to calculate the timing of events. It was quite fascinating to see how a single point(BB) could tell us everything about our primary karma. GuruJi brought forth both the mundane and the esoteric, the material as well as the spiritual part of it beautifully.
It has been a real pleasure learning this deep subject from GuruJi. What is emphasized again and again is that Astrology is a subject which gives one direction or light. It is not just about applying some dictums and make predictions about marriage or career. It is the science of life which beautifully tells us how there is a science working behind the functioning of this whole universe and how everything is deeply related to our karmas. GuruJi beautifully brings out this spiritual aspect of it which inspires us more on the spiritual path.
Om Ji
