THE MYTH OF KAL SARPA YOGA

THE MYTH OF KAL SARPA YOGA

In the recent times, Kal Sarpa Yoga has become the most common point of discussion in the country. It is said that this is most ominous combination, all the beneficial roles of planets are destroyed & the native having Kal Sarpa yoga in his chart is said to be suffering through all kind of hardships throughout his life, while his hardship doesn’t yield any good result. It is said that if all the planets are on the one side of Rahu & Ketu, then it becomes Kal Sarpa Yoga. Many books are being published under this name, with suggested remedies etc. while astrologers keep themselves busy by discussing about this topic in newspapers, television & internet with the relevant information they have about the effects of this yoga. The word, “Kal Sarpa” itself frightens anybody as the “Kal” (meaning period) takes the form of “Sarpa” (Snake) & troubles the native. For no reason, even the astrologers of today are talking about the frightening effects of Kal Sarpa Yoga. Some of the results, which they opine are, the native’s fate is damned, he cannot earn name & fame in his/hers life, may not get a job or his/hers work atmosphere will never be good, may suffer from financial problems, problems in having offspring etc. all such craps. Whenever a problem arises, we consult the classics of Vedic astrology, Kal Sarpa Yoga has no reference in classical texts, nor supported by any astrological texts, because Maharshi Parasar, Jaimini, Varahamihira, Ramanujacharya, Kalidas, Baidyanath Dixit, Benkateswar Daivajna, Mantreswar, or famous astrologers didn’t accept this yoga. The basis of this was because some people who practice tantric rituals used to wait for this mahurat when all the planets were on the one side of both rahu and ketu so that they can get success in these rituals. That is how Kal sarpa yoga was formed. Kal Sarpa Yoga is nothing but a “cultivated” yoga, only to scare people who come to seek astrological advice. whatever incomplete people felt in their life, was due to planetary position, not due to the so called “Kal Sarpa Yoga”. I have a number of horoscopes where there is presence of Kal Sarpa Yoga, but those persons have felt the height of success in their life. So to conclude this article I request people not to unnecessary tax their minds with superstition, Astrology is a great science and don’t let it be demeaned by any of the half baked astrologers who in the garb of helping people are cheating them for their own monetary gains.
