MANTHRESWARA'S PHALA DEEPIKA - CHAPTER 17.



        PHALA DIPIKA OF MANTHRSHWARA

              CHAPTER XVII सप्तदशोऽध्याय
               ll    निर्याणप्रकरणम्   ll
               DETERMINATION OF DEATH
                                                   

“   ll  तत्तद्भावादष्टमे शस्थितांशे तत् त्रिकोणगे  l
         व्ययेशस्थितभांशे वा मन्दे तद्भावनाशनम्  ll……………..१,

1.     When SATURN (मन्द) passes through the RAASI and NAVAMSA  of the 8th or 12th Lord reckoned from any HOUSE , that particular House will be destroyed. The result will be the same when MANDA goes through the houses which form trines to these houses.

“   ll  रन्ध्रेशो गुलिको मन्दः स्वरद्रेक्काणपोऽपापि वा  l
         यत्र तिष्ठति तद्भांशत्रिकोणे रविजे मृतिः  ll……………२.

First ascertain the Rasi and Navaamsa of the Lord of the 8th House, Gulika ,Saturn and the lord of the 22nd DREKKANA when counted from the ascendant.  ie. 1/3rd sign equal to 10Deg. Note :- Gulika and Maandi are one and the same and is said to be the son of Saturn (मन्द) while it is shown in Malyalam as” മാ  denoting son of MANDA as MAANDI, in tamil, it is shown as  குளிகன். During SATURN’s transit if it passes the said sign or the NAVAMSA or its TRINE death might take place.

“   ll  उद्यद्दृगाणनाथस्य तथा रन्ध्राधिपस्य च  l
         रन्ध्रद्रेक्काणपस्यापि भांशकोणे गुरौ मृतिः  ll   “………..

3.  First find the DREKKANA which rises.  Also the Lord of the 8th House and 22nd DREKKANA . If Jupiter in its course of movement occupy any of the said three positions or the formation of three planets or move into any one when they are trines death is likely to occur.

“   ll  स्वस्फुटद्वादशांशे वा रन्द्रेशस्थानवांशके  l
         लग्नेशस्थानवांशेऽर्के तत् त्रिकोणेऽपि वा मृतिः  ll   “………….४.

4.    Death can be expected when RAVI transits through the Sign which represents His own Dwadashamsha, or the NAVAMSHA of the 8th House or the NAVAMSHA of the Lord of the House in which the ASCENDANT resides or passes through their TRINE. (Note :-AYURBHAVA is the 8th House. Here Manthreswra says “रन्द्रेशस्थानवांशके” and Hence the interpretation.)
Note 2 : In Some books I have seen in the 2nd Line written as “ नवंशे वा “ If this is correct  then instead of RAVI please read GURU. Kindly also read the note given by Dr. Kapur in this regard.
“   ll  रन्ध्रप्रभोर्वा भानोर्वा भाम्शकोणं गते विधौ  l
         मृतिं वदेत्सर्वमेतल्लग्नाच्चन्द्राच्च चिन्तयेत्  ll   “………….५.

5.    A native’s death may occur when the Moon in its course of movement passes through the sign where the lord of the 8th house situates or the Sun or their trine.  This is to be examined with reference to both the signs where the Ascendant and the Moon situate.

“   ll लग्नेशहीनयमकण्टकभांशकोणं
        प्राप्तेऽथवाशनिविहीनहिमांशुभांश्  l
        याते गुरौ स्वमरणन्त्वथ राहुहीन –
        भूसूनुभांशकगुरौ सहजप्रणाशः  ll   “.............६.

6.    (a) Deduct the Longitude of YAMAKANTAKA (Note :- YAMAKANATAKA AND YAMAGANDAM ARE NOT SAME.  Yamakantaka is an upagraha and it will produce good results except on Thursdays since this UPAGRAHA is said to be the illicit son of GURU (JUPITER) Whereas YAMAGANDAM is like RAHU KALAM. In ‘KAALA PRAKAASIKA” an authoritative text written by NARASIMHA it is written “ अर्द्धप्रहर कालश्च यमगण्डकमेवच शुभकर्म्मसुयलेन वर्ज्जये सर्वदा नर:” Chapt. XXXIII Verse 65. However, I have not seen any proper definition for both YAMKANDAKA and YAMAGANDAM.  There is one small note in Jathaka Parijatam that if the 7th Sign is occupied by an upagraha , the wife will be wicked. ) from the Longitude of the Lord where the Ascendant situates ;(b) Subtract the Longitude of SATURN from that of the Moon. The death of the person in question will occur when Jupiter occupy during its transit of the RASI or NAVAMSA or any of the trine from the resultant.

As far as the death of the brother is concerned subtract the longitude of KUJA from that of RAHU and when the planet JUPITER passes the SIGN OR NAVAMSA obtained after subtraction the death of the brother will occur.

“   ll  भानोः कष्टकर्वार्जितस्य भवनांशे वात्रिकोणे गुरौ
         तातो नश्यति कण्टकोनगुलिकर्क्षांशत्रिकोणेशनौ  l
         अर्कोनेन्तुगृहांशकोणगगुरौ च्न्द्रोनमन्दात्मज –
         क्षेत्रेंशेऽप्यथवा त्रिकोणगृहगे मन्दे जनन्या मृतिः  ll………..७.

7.      Subtract  the longitude of Yamakandaka from that of the SUN. If GURU transits through the position thus got (resultant of subtraction) in RASI or NAVAMSA or its THRIKONA position
Death of the father might occur.
Subtract the longitude of GULIKA ( MAANDI ) from that of YAMAKANDAKA. When the father of MAANDHI (SATURN) passes through the SIGN or NAVAMSA thus obtained or through its trine
Death of mother may occur. This is also possible if it is from the moon or the trine thus got.  Jathaka Parjatham refers.

“   ll  वदेत्प्रत्यरनक्षत्रनाथाच्च यमकण्टकम्  l 
         त्यक्त्वा तद्भवने कोणे गुरौ पुत्रविनाशनम्  ll………..८.

8It is said to subtract the longitude of YAMAKANTAKA from the the longitude of  5th star  from the JANMA NAKSHATHRA.  The time of death of the son will come when GURU passes through the difference in longitude thus obtained  or during it passes through its NAVAMSA.
                                                    
                                  ll   स्वमरणनिर्णयः   ll

                 FINDING OUT ONE’S OWN TIME OF DEATH

“   ll  लग्नार्कमान्दिस्फुटयोगराशेरधीश्वरो यद्भवनो   गस्तु  l
         तद्राशिसंस्थे पुरुहूतवन्द्ये तत्कोणगे वा मृतिमेति जातः  ll   “……….९.

9.     After adding the longitudes of Ascendant, SUN and MAANDI, find out the location of the LORD of the sign and /or Navamca from the resultant.  When Guru passes through the Sign or Navamsa , or the trine thus obtained , the death of the native might occur.

“   ll  मान्दीस्फुटे भानुसुतं विशोध्य राश्यांशकोणे रविजे मृतिः स्यात्  l
         धूमाधिपच्चग्रहयोगराशिद्रेक्काणयातेऽर्कसुते च मृत्युः  ll…………….१०.

10.  Subtract the longitude of MAANDI from that of MARS and find out the RAASI AND NAVAMSA from the resultant.  When SATURN IS POSITED  in its course of transit or otherwise or in its trines he death of the native will take place. It is also possible if SANI reaches the PARTICULAR DECANTE or a particular SIGN of the total longitudes of DUMA, VYATIPATHA , PARIVESA, INDRA CHAPA and UPAKETU(Formula to find out the total of Dhuma, Vyathipaata, parivesha, Indrachaapa and Upakethu is. “ (Dhuma’s Longitude= Sun’s Longitude + 13320 Deg. ) + (Vyatipata’s Longitude= 360 Deg. Minus  Dhuma’s Longitude) +( Parivesha’s Longitude =Vyatipaata’s longitude+180 Deg. ) + (Indrachapa’s Longitude = 360 Deg. Minus Parivesha’s Longitude) + ( Upakethu’s Longitude =Indrachapa’s longitude + 1640 ‘ (Mts.) i.e. Sun’s Longitude – 30)  Kindly Note that DHUMA & INDRACHAPA are apart 180 DEG. & VYATIPATA & PARIVESA are apart 180 Deg.) All upagrahas are known as Shadowy
Planets like Rahu and Kethu.

“    ll  विलग्नमान्दीस्फुटयोगभांशं निर्याणमासं प्रवदन्ति तज्ज्ञः  l
          निर्याणचन्द्रो गुलिकेन्दुन्योगो लग्नं विलग्नार्किसुतेन्दु योगः ll    ”….....११.

11.    The Sign and the Navaamsa got after adding the Longitudes of Lagna and Mandi  will indicate the particular month and the portion of the year in which the death of the native might take place i.e. when the sun reaches particular sign and/or Navamsa the native’s death can occur. Again if the longitude of the Moon and Maandi are added and if the moon reaches the RASI and NAVAMSA of the resultant of the addition, the time of death can be said. The sum total got by adding Lagna. Moon and Maandi will indicate the rising sign Or Lagna of the sum total.  

“   ll  मान्धिस्फुटोदितनवंशगतेऽमरेज्ञ्ये
         तद्द्वादशांशसहिते दिननाथसूनौ  l
         द्रेक्काणकोणभवने दिनपे च मृत्यु –
         र्लग्नेन्दुमान्दीयुतभेशगतोदये स्यात् …………१२.

12.    After finding out from the Longitude of Maandi, the NAVAMSA, Decante and Dwadasamsa (a) if Jupiter in its course of transit go through the said Navamsa (b) If Saturn in its course of transit passes through the Dwadasamsa said above and (c) if RAVI in his course of transit through the decante and the trine position from it and (d) the ascendant becomes the  Lord of the SIGN from the aggregate of MAANDI, LAGNA and the MOON, the death of the native will occur.
As per another reading “ the 4th Line in the Sanskrit verse “मान्दियुतभांशगतो यति स्यात् ”  If it is so then instead of “ if ASCENDANT becomes the Lord of the Sign read it as SUN…………….”

“   ll  गुलिकं रविसूनुं च गुणित्वा नवसंख्यया  l
          उभयोरैक्याराश्यंशगृहगे रविजे मृतिः  ll…………..१३.

13.   After separately multiplying by 9,  MAANDI, AND MANDAN add the resultant . and when MANDAN in its course of its transit reaches  the NAVAMSA indicated by the above calculation the Native’s death might occur.

“   ll  स्फुटे विलग्ननाथस्य विशोध्य यमकण्ठकम्  l
          तद्राशिनवभागस्थे जीवे मृत्युर्न संशयः  ll…………..१४.

14.    After subtracting the Longitude of YAMAKANDAKA from that of the ASCENDANT when Jupiter in its course of  transit reaches the NAVAMSA thus obtained , the death of the native will definitely take place.

“   ll  षष्ठावसानरन्घ्रेशस्फुटैक्यभवनं गते  l
          त् त्रीणोपगें वापि मन्दे मृत्युभयं नृणाम्  ll……………१५.

15.    Add the longitudes of 6th, 8th and 12th Lords.  The native will die when MANDAN reaches in its transit the sign or NAVAMSA indicated by the total longitudes or the Trine of the sum total.

 ll उद्यद्दृगाणपति राशिगते सुरेड्ये
       तस्य त्रिकोणमपि गच्छति वा विनाशम्  l
       रन्ध्रत्रीभागपतिमन्दिरगेऽथ मन्दे
       प्राप्ते त्रिकोणमथवास्य वदन्ति मृत्युम्  ll    “……………१६.

16.  After finding out the SIGN etc. occupied by the Lord of DREKKAANA which rises , if GURU transits this Sign or its trine  the native will meet his death.
 When SANI in its course of transit reaches the Lord of the DREKKANA of the 8th HOUSE or its trine ,the death of the native can also be predicted.      
  
“    ll  विलग्न जन्माष्टमराशिनाथयोः खर त्रीभागेश्वरयोस्तयोरपि  l
         शशाङ्कमान्दोरपि दुर्बलंशकत्रिकोणगे सूर्यसुते मृतिर्भवेत्  ll…………१७

17.    Find which is the weak planet among the three given in here : (a) The lord of the 8th House  (b) 22nd Drekkana from Lagna and the MOON (c) CHANDRA and MAADHI. 
When SANI transits through the NAVAMSA or the TRNE of the weakest among above said planet death might be caused.

“   ll  लग्नाधिपस्थितनवांशकराशितुल्यं रन्ध्राधिपस्य गृहमापतिते घटेशे  l
        तस्मिनंवदेन्मरणयोगमनेकशास्त्रसंक्षुण्णखिन्नमतिभिःपरिकीर्तितं तत्  ll   “…….…१८. 

18.   Check in which SIGN the Navamsa Lord of the ASCENDANT occupies. See how far it has moved from ARIES. When SANI transits the sign as far away from the 8th HOUSE death might occur.  Thus says the experts in Astrology.

“   ll  शशाङ्कसंयुक्तदृगाणपूर्वतःखरत्रीभागेशगृहं गतेऽपि वा  l
         त्रिकोणगे वा  मरणं शरीरिणां शशिन्यय स्यात्तनुरन्ध्ररि:फगे  ll   “...............१९.

19.   It is also possible that death might occur when the MOON while in transition passes through the RAASI occupied by the Lord of 22nd drekkaana when counted from the MOON at the time of birth or  its position of trine  or through the SIGN of LAGNA, 8th or 12th HOUSE.

“   ll  निधनेश्वरगतराशौ भानाविन्दौ तु भानुगतराशौ  l
         निधनाधिपसंयुक्ते नक्षत्रे निदिशेन्मरणम्  ll…………………………………२०.

20.  The death of the native is likely to take place when (a) the SUN in its transition passes through the SIGN (राशि) occupied by the Lord of the 8th House; (b) When MOON in its course of transition occupies the sign occupied by SUN at the time of birth or the NAKSHATHRA occupied by the LORD of the 8th HOUSE.  (Remember that 8th HOUSE is AYUR BHAAVA ) .

“  ll   यो राशिर्गुलिकोपेतःतत् त्रीकोणगते शनौ  l
         मरणं निशिजातानां दिविजानां तदस्तके  ll……………………………….२१.

21.  In the case of birth during night, when Saturn passes through the sign triangular to the position of MAANDHI the death of the native will take place;
If the birth is during Day Time the death of the native will take place when SATURN while in transit passes through the 7th house when counted from MANDHI.

“   ll  गुरुराहुस्फुटेक्यस्य राशिं यातो गुरुर्यदा l
         तदा तु निधनं विद्यात्तत्रिकोणगतोऽथवा  ll……………………………….२२.

22.   After adding the SPUTHA ( LONGITUDES)  of JUPITER AND RAHU, when Jupiter passes through the sum got after adding the LONGITUDES in its course of transition or its trine death of the native will take place.

“   ll अष्टमस्य त्रिभागांशपतिस्थितगृहं शनौ  l
        तदीशनवभागक्षै गते वा मरणं भवेत्  ll…………………………………..२३.

23.   When Saturn (शनैश्चर) passes through the lord of the DREKKANAM of the 8th HOUSE on its course of transition , death of the NATIVE can occur.
The death of the NATIVE can also take place when SATURN in its course of transition pass through the NAVAMSA occupied by the 8th House counted from Ascendant.

“   ll  जन्मकाले शनौ यस्य जन्माष्टमपतेरपि  l
         राशेरंशकराशेर्वा त्रिकोणस्ये शनौ मृतिः  ll………………२४.

24.   Death is likely to occur if SATURN in its transit moves through the RAASI and NAVAMSA occupied by the planet at birth or its trines.  The likelihood of death is possible if SATURN in its transit moves through the lord of the sign occupied by the MOON or its trines or the 8th House from the ascendant.

“   ll  निशीन्दुराशौ चेज्जन्म मान्दिभेंऽशे शनिमृतिः  l
         दिवार्कभे चेत्तद्यूनात्रिकोणे वा शनौ मृतिः  ll…………..२५.

25.   When birth takes place during NIGHT the death of the NATIVE might take place when Saturn while in transition pass through the SIGN OR NAVAMSA of the MOON or MANDHI. If the birth takes place during the Day time death is likely to take place, when SANI during his course of transition  passes through the SIGN or NAVAMSA occupied by the SUN or the 5th House, 7th  House or the 9th house from the sign in which the SUN is posited.

“   ll  रन्ध्रेश्वराद्यावती भे मान्दिस्तावति भे तत:  l
         शनिश्चेन्मरणं ब्रूयादिति सद्गुरुभाषितम्  ll……………२६.

26.   Please ascertain as to how far MAANDHI has transited from the LORD of the 8th  HOUSE. When SANI in its course of transition arrives at a RAASI so far MAANDI is removed,  death of the NATIVE might take place as said by eminent teachers of astrology.

“   ll  जन्मकालीनभृगुजात्कामाशत्रु व्यये रवौ  l
         मरणं निश्चीतं ब्रूयादिति सद्गुरुभाषितम्  ll……………२७.

27.   The death of the NATIVE is certain if the SUN in its transition passes through the 6th , 7th , or 12th House from the house where Venus situates thus says the preceptors.

“   ll  तिष्ठन्त्यष्टमरिःफषष्ठपतयो रन्ध्रत्रिभागेश्वरो
         मान्धिर्यद्भवनेषु तेष्वपि गृहेष्वार्कीड्यसूर्येन्दवः  l
         सर्वे चारवशात्प्रयान्ति हि यदा मृत्युस्तदा स्यान्नृणाम्
         तेषांशवशाद्वदन्तु निधनं तत्तत्त्रीकोणेऽपि वा  ll………२८.

28.   First ascertain the position of the Lord of the 8th HOUSE, 12th HOUSE, 6th HOUSE , Maandhi and 22nd drekkanam .Death might occur when SHANI, GURU, RAVI and CHANDRA when in transition pass through the above-said houses.  This will also happen when these said grahas pass through the trines of 8th House, 12th House, 6th   House, Maandhi position and 22nd drekkanam.

     ll इति मन्त्रेश्वरविरविरचितायां फलदीपिकायां निर्याणभावो नाम सप्तदशोऽध्यायः ll
