Mula Nakshatra: The Primordial Cosmic Force.

versão em pt-br

Tropical Astrology orients the zodiac to the point of the Vernal Equinox, which marks the beginning of the sign of Aries. Vedic astrology orients the zodiac from the 'Galactic Center' to the center of the Galactic Sun, where influences pass through us via the fixed constellation of Sagittarius. The Galactic Center is called 'Brahma,' the creative force, or 'Vishnunabhi,' the navel of Vishnu. From the Sun emanates the light that determines life and intelligence on Earth, directing the seven rays of creation and the distribution of Karma.

In terms of sidereal astrology, the Galactic Center is located at the beginning of Sagittarius. In the Vedic system, it is found in the lunar constellation (nakshatras) called 'Mula,' which means 'the root' or 'origin.' Mula can thus be seen as the first in the series of lunar constellations. It marks 13º 20' of Sagittarius, in the middle of which the Galactic Center is located. The last in the series of lunar constellations is Jyeshta, which means 'the eldest,' found at the end of Scorpio. This shows that the ancients knew of the Galactic Center and named the constellations accordingly. The Mayans identified the Galactic Center as Hunab Ku, representing the Supreme God and Supreme Creator. It is considered the 'Mother's Womb' that constantly gives birth and gave birth to the Sun and the planet Earth. It is believed that Hunab Ku directs everything that happens in the Galaxy from its center through the periodic emission of 'Consciousness Energy.'

The energy of the Galactic Center is primarily transmitted by Jupiter, called 'Guru,' the teacher in Vedic astrology, and by Sagittarius. Jupiter is said to be the teacher of the Gods, the cosmic power of light. In this regard, he is even the teacher of the Sun, the guide of the world. Jupiter represents and directs Galactic Light to the solar system.

This association of Mula with the Galactic Center suggests a strong connection to primordial and cosmic forces, symbolizing the ability to access deep and transformative wisdom that may surface from intense experiences or a spiritual quest. The strong influence of Mula may manifest as a deep connection with these cosmic energies, reflecting a desire to get to the core of issues and seek the truth in its rawest and purest form.

Ketu, the planet that governs Mula, also deals with reaching the core of everything. It stores past Karmas and releases those mature enough to be experienced in the present. It can help gather the necessary tools to fulfill the objective of the present life. This is suggested by the symbolism of the tied roots. Mula, therefore, helps in gathering, meaningfully, the talents developed in past lives.

Mula is concerned with investigating invisible or unknown things. Along with its counterpart Ardra (which lies directly opposite in the zodiac), Mula has the strongest and deepest sense of investigation among all nakshatras. Mula is directly associated with medicinal purposes. In ancient medicinal systems like Ayurveda, roots of various plants are used for medicine preparation. Similarly, Mula is also related to the root of diseases, such as microorganisms like viruses, bacteria, etc. Like everything under Mula's jurisdiction, these microorganisms are invisible to the naked eye. The fact that the roots are tied suggests a sense of limitation. As a result, Mula often does not allow much freedom or dispersion of energies, causing people to dive deep within a limited sphere.

Mula Nakshatra is deeply connected to the figure of Nritti, a powerful and enigmatic goddess of Vedic mythology. Nritti is often associated with destruction, chaos, and dissolution, but her influence goes far beyond just being a destructive force. She represents the primordial forces that deconstruct and dismantle to allow something new and more authentic to emerge. Nritti is the goddess of transformation through destruction. She governs the process of disintegration necessary for renewal and regeneration, reflecting the idea that for growth to occur, something old must be undone. In many ways, Nritti can be seen as the guardian of the boundaries between the known and the unknown, between comfort and chaos, symbolizing moments of crisis that challenge old structures and beliefs, paving the way for personal and spiritual development. Mula's symbol is a bundle of tied roots, representing the exploration of origins, the unveiling of deeper truths, and the search for the essence of any situation. However, to reach the roots, one must undergo processes of destruction and deconstruction, aspects deeply connected to Nritti's energy. Those who have significant planets in Mula Nakshatra may experience intense moments of destruction and rebirth throughout their lives, being called to abandon old identities, beliefs, and situations to transform into something new and more authentic.

Nritti's influence on Mula also emphasizes the importance of facing chaos and the unknown as part of the path to enlightenment. Mula is the nakshatra of deep investigation, where the sought truth is revealed, often in a harsh and challenging way. Nritti guides this quest, ensuring that illusions are destroyed so that the truth, no matter how raw, can emerge.

It is in Mula's nature to quickly cut and destroy things that have lost their value. Most often, it regrets its actions in hindsight. Only when its Universal will is aligned does Mula operate in a wise, Jupiterian manner. The struggle between universality and individuality reaches its peak here, as individuality is at its highest expression. The process of individualization begins in Ashwini, is celebrated in Magha, and culminates with completed individual experiences in Mula. Beyond the realm of the ego and egocentrism, Mula is a proud and arrogant nakshatra, often unable to comprehend its own power and abilities. In some cases, this is good, as its capacity to inflict damage on itself is restricted by its ignorance. Its terrible and demonic side comes from Ketu's negative functioning in its lower aspects, potentially generating ego, vanity, and arrogance, which can lead someone to commit abominable and demonic actions.

Vasantapuja

This puja is mentioned in the Ishanashivagurudeva Paddhati, and is a festival celebrating the spring season along with Damanakotsava , the associated festival of love, dedicated to Kama. In this puja, the season of spring is treated and worshipped as a goddess.

In case anyone is not aware, Vasanta, the god of spring and flowers, is the best friend of Kama (and Rati). He was mentioned to have been born from the sigh of Brahma in the Kalika and Shiva Puranas.

Vasantaradhana is one of the favorites of Shiva. The important part of worship in this festival held during the spring season (Vasantartu) is the Damanaka Puja, wherein Damanaka is an aromatic plant, and special to Kama since it was this plant that turned out to be the object of his Sapamoksha. Siva also blessed Kama, saying that whoever worships him with the Damanaka plant along with Vishnu, Brahma and other Devas will have all their wishes fulfilled. The author further states that those who do not strictly adhere to the Saivite modes of worship as stated above are, in effect, rejecting the basic tenets of Saivagama (traditionally communicated wisdom).

How The Puja Is Carried Out

For the details related to Vasantapuja and Damanakotsava, the author of the Paddhati has relied on 'Svacchandatantra' (official book of Kashmiri Shaivism) and 'SomaSambhupaddhathi' (another manual for Shaivite rituals).

Rites and rituals:

The venue for Vasantapuja has to be a garden that abounds in Damanaka creepers and Asokavrkshas (Ashoka trees). Puja is begun with the invocation and Aradhana of Ganesh in Nirti angle and Guru in Isana.

It is under the shade of an Asokavrksha that Puja takes place. Two pots of sanctified water are placed at the foot of the Asokavrksha. The one on the right side is meant for Vasanta and that on the left for Kama. The presence of their consorts, Kusumavati and Padmavati respectively, have also to be kept in mind. In the middle of the Pujavedi, the Asokavrksha is conceived as Vasanta in the guise of a vibrant youth, golden in complexion, and is to be invoked and offered Gandha-puspa-nivedyantapuja. The nine powers of Vasantartu are Ahladini, Gandhavati, Surabhi, Malini, Madira, Madayanti, Rama, Pushpavati and Vasanti.

Next is the worship of the Damanaka plant, during which the Bhairava form of Siva has to be conceived in mind. Kama has also to be conceived as remaining seated along with his consort Rati on his right thigh and holding Puspasara in his right hand. He is served on all sides by a group of beautiful and shapely maidens. The Saktidevatas of Kama may also be conceived and offered Gandhadhupa-nivedyantapujas. The Gayatrimantra of Kama is also given.

The important feature of the festival on the second day is the collection of the Damanaka plant (the whole plant including the roots) from the garden in a pot, offering of Puja, followed by the ceremonial procession carrying the three pots (Damanaka, Kama and Vasanta) on an elephant in Nagarapradaksina, to the accompaniment of Nrtta-vadyasangita-ghoshas. On conclusion of the procession, the pots are placed beside the idol of Shiva after which Homavidhis, Sampatasparsa, Bali, prayer and Archana are performed. The other customary acts like Dakshina and gifts to the priests are also recommended. The Patala concludes with the following observation by the author. 

ittham vasantavihitam savasantayagam proktam tadantamiha damanakam hi parva| yadvad vasantatilakam sumanobhiramam tadvanmaunobhisitan phalatiha kaman |

Though this festival is no longer celebrated in Kerala, another festival called Vasanta Panchami, also known as Sri Panchami, is observed religiously, mainly as Saraswati Puja and also as worship of Kama, Rati, Indra, Varuna and Brahma, on a grand scale, especially in Bengal, Punjab and most of North India. The legend also bears close resemblance to that of 'Vasantotsava' described in Isanasivagurudeva-paddhati. Legend has it that on this day Shiva turned Kama into ashes.

Lord Shiva blessing Kuber

This story narrates the origin of Kubera. One of the stories in Shivpurana which emphasizes the importance in worship of Lord Shiva. It also says even the unwitting worship of Lord Shiva can bless you.

A pious and faithful Brahmin called Yajnadutta lived in Kampilya, a long time ago. That Brahmin was blessed with a promising son whom the happy father had named Gunanidhi, literally meaning ‘repository of fine attributes’. After the boy’s sacred thread ceremony (Upanayana) he was sent to a guru to learn letters and gain wisdom. The boy progressed into youth but unfortunately fell in a bad company and picked up all bad and vice habits. Yajnadutta had been too busy to notice the degeneration of his son. The mother was blind in affection for her son to see anything going wrong.

Spoil rotten, Gunanidhi took gambling and womanising. All the money he laid his hands on went into those vices. Then, needing more money he began to thieve and sell the stolen goods. Once he gambled away all he had made. Meanwhile, his father, while going to river to take his bath entrusted his precious gold ring to his wife. The wife placed it in a niche of a wall. The son, Gunanidhi saw her doing that and stole the ring. He sold it to a man and gambled away the proceeds. Incidentally, Yajnadutta ran into the person who was wearing the ring his wife had lost. Upon enquiry the man revealed that he had bought the ring from a young man named Gunanidhi.

Yajnadutta now realised that what lately he had been hearing bad things about his son were true. The son learnt that his father had come to know of his misdeeds. Gunanidhi fled to avoid being confronted by his anguished father.

Gunanidhi went hungry for a couple of days. He flopped under a tree famished and exhausted. Suddenly flavours of richly cooked food wafted into his nostrils. A faithful was carrying some food offering to the nearby Lord Shiva temple. He waited at some distance for an opportunity to steal the offering. He saw the worship and prayers being sung. When the devotees fell asleep he sneaked into the sanctum where in front of Lord Shiva idol offerings were placed. The wick of the lamp had slipped into the oil and flame was about to flicker off. Gunanidhi quickly tore a strip off his kurta, dipped in oil, lit it and put it into the lamp to serve as substitute wick. Then he tried to hurry out with the bundle of stolen food offering. But he happened to stumble against a sleeping devotee who screamed in fright. The devotees woke up and grabbed the thief. Gunanidhi got beaten up and a blow of a thick stick smashed his skull. He died instantly.

The agents (dootas) of death arrived to despatch the sinful soul of Gunanidhi to burning hell. But ganas (elite guards of Lord Shiva) intervened saying that Gunanidhi had earned a place in the divine domain of Lord Shiva by participating in Lord Shiva worship, lighting the lamp after fasting for two days before his death, although done unwittingly yet the reward stood granted by the grace of lord. He had been salvaged.

Rebirth of Gunanidhi as Kubera:

As the son of the king of Utakala, Gunanidhi took rebirth by a new name Damana. Damana lived a life of piety, devotion and nobility. In his next birth he was born as the son of the grandson of Brahma. He had brought forward goodness of his previous life and by the grace of Lord Shiva, remembered all about his past lives.

He remained all his life as an ardent devotee of Lord Shiva. On the bank of Ganga he planted a holy lingam and penance on empty stomach. His shrivelled skin draped his skeletal emaciated body. Propitiated with his intense devotion Lord Shiva appeared to him along with his divine consort. They blessed their faithful with the boon of a divine body and renamed him ’ Kubera’. By the grace of divine couple, Kubera later gained the rule of Alkapuri. Lord Shiva went to live near Alkapuri when Kubera wished for his proximity on a boon.

In his new domain Lord Shiva rattled his ’ hand tambour’ (Dumroo). It’s fierce beat echoed through the cosmos. All celestial beings rushed to Lord Shiva to have his darshan. So did sages, holy men, faithful’s and hosts of his own ganas led by their chiefs with folded hands praying and making their obeisance. The celestial builder instantly created palaces to host them all. Lord Shiva duly settled in his adobe. Later, all the guests returned to their own adobes. Thus, Lord Shiva granted his proximity to his favoured faithful Kubera who became the lord of the divine treasury.

Ajna Chakra

In the forehead, between the eyebrows, lies the two-petaled lotus, Ajna chakra. It shines like the bright moon, and its two petals vibrate with the sounds ham and ksham. Devi Hakini resides in the center of the Ajna chakra. White as the moon and with a pure mind (shuddha chitta). She has six heads and four arms that hold an hourglass-shaped drum, a skull, a jnana mudra (gesture of knowledge) and a japa mala.

The subtle mind (mana) resides in the Ajna chakra. A Shiva lingam called Itarakhya resides within it. It shines like a thunderbolt and is the abode of realization of supreme knowledge, including the vedas. It is also from here that one perceives the Brahma nadi, which connects the Muladhara to the Sahasrara chakra.

The bija mantra for Ajna chakra is AUM, also known as Pranava. It is said that one should meditate on this bija mantra with a steady mind. One should meditate on the Ajna chakra with devi Hakini, a glowing mind, a shining Shiva lingam, and AUM bija mantra. The meditator can perceive the Brahma nadi if he or she meditates this way with stillness and with his or her gaze turned inward.

By meditating on the Ajna chakra one becomes all-knowing, all-perceiving, a benefactor to all, all-powerful like Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, who are responsible for creation, regulation, and dissolution, respectively.

Between the eyebrows in the Ajna chakra is the soul, which is as bright as the tip of a flame and vibrates with the primordial sound of AUM. Above that is a bright young moon with a bindu (letter of sound ma) from which the unstruck sound of AUM is derived. This bindu shines like the rays of the moon.

Swami Hamsa swaroop maharaj describes an important doorway to the soul in his translation of Sat Chakra Nirupana. By holding the Niralamba mudra, which can be learned only from a guru, and by meditating on the place where the primordial sound of AUM originates, one experiences the light of the soul or highest spirit.

Next, Sat Chakra Nirupana discusses the importance of Ajna chakra at the end of life. One who meditates on the Ajna chakra at the end stage of life and surrenders the prana with devotion between the eyebrows, i.e. at the bindu from where the primordial sound originates, merges with the supreme consciousness.

In the Bhagavad Gita, Chapter 8 Verse 10, Shri Krishna says to Arjuna

prayaanakaale manasaachalena bhaktyaa yukto yogabalena chaiva |

bhruvormadhye praanamaaveshya samyak sa tam param purushamupaiti divyam || 10 ||

At death, with devotion, an unwavering mind, and the power of yoga, he who surrenders the Prana in the middle of the eyebrows, attains that supreme divine person.

[33-108]

Bhairavi is a tantric Goddess, who is the part of the Ten Mahavidyas’ group (Dasha-mahavidya). She is also known as Tripura Bhairavi. Varahi Tantra says, “Since She was worshipped by Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh in earlier times, She became known by the name Tripura”.

Usually, in various tantric texts and hymns in Her honor, many amasing forms of the Goddess are described, whose names indicate various graces for the sadhakas devoted to Her. In particular, it grants various kinds of siddhis and magical perfections, as well as the ability to control sexual energy, the power of fearlessness, protection from negative influences and cutting off worldly attachments.

By controlling tanmatras (properties of objects perceived by the five senses: hearing, touch, sight, taste and smell), She allows to control five kinds of gross elements and five kinds of perception. As kriya-shakti, Bhairavi symbolises the power of the ascending Kundalini, which is awakened with the help of Bhairava-sadhana (Shiva-Bhairava is the consort of the Goddess), characteristic of vamachara practices. In the yogic context, such sadhana is an internal work for the unification of prana and apana in the sushumna channel.

In the Sharada-tilaka hymn, Bhairavi is described as a fire that consumes the entire universe at the end of each cosmic cycle, since at the levels of macro- and micro-cosmic processes she performs the threefold function of creation-preservation-destruction (srishti, sthiti and pralaya).

The majority of the people perceive the action extraordinary divine force and energy of this Goddess as a scaring aspect, mostly because she causes the destruction of all limitations, preconceived ideas, erroneous conceptions and illusions regarding our individual existence. But, Bhairavi is the sacred connection with the school, Guru, Tradition; it is the transfiguration of the mundane into the transcendent.

Sat-chit-ananda is experienced when there is consciousness.

The bliss is felt by consciousness.

It is qualitative and, hence, it is not the eternal Truth.

One talks about Parabrahman, but the Absolute does not know Itself.

For the sake of Parabrahman, you have to sacrifice Brahman, the manifest.

Is time known through consciousness or is consciousness known through time?

As long as there is consciousness, there is time. There is nothing outside the Brahma-randhra in the crown of your head. Whatever is seen and sensed exists in that aperture.

The name (mantra) given by the Guru is proof in itself of the Guru's word. The name given by parents is a proof of death.

How do you get Self-realization?

Do we make an effort for waking up?

The one who follows the Guru's word does not have to make special effort. One who has accepted the Guru's word will not be controlled by time.

Jiva means consciousness, whereas the Atman exists in the Sattva quality but is not affected by the quality. Because of Sattva, all our experiences are coming to us. They say prana left the body, but Atman neither comes nor goes. It is not bound by prana. The knowledge of the Self must be known by the Self.

There is no greater devotion than devotion to the Guru (non-dual devotion). It transcends the Vedas. There should be the conviction that the Guru's word itself is ‘I’. When you go about as a body, it is like stirring up the reflection of something in the water. Use the body but do not allow body-consciousness to stick to you.

Mula Nakshatra: A Força Cósmica Primordial.

english version

Astrologia Tropical orienta o zodiaco para o ponto do Equinócio Vernal, o que marca no início do signo de Áries. A astrologia Védica orienta o zodiaco do "Centro Galáxico" para o centro do Sol Galático, nos quais as influências passam por nós através da constelação fixa de Sagitário. O Centro Galático é chamado de "Brahma", a força criativa, ou "Vishnunabhi", o umbigo de Vishnu. Do Sol emana a luz que determina a vida e a inteligência na Terra e que dirige os sete raios da criação e da distribuição do Karma.

Em termos da astrologia sideral, o Centro Galático está localizado no início de Sagitário. No sistema védico é encontrado na constelação lunar (nakshatras) chamado "Mula", que significa "a raiz" ou "origem". Mula pode ser, assim, como o primeiro da série da constelação lunar. Marca 13º 20' de Sagitário, no meio que é localizado o Centro Galático. O último na série da constelação lunar é Jyeshta, que significa "o mais velho", é encontrado no fim de Escorpião. Isso mostra que os antigos sabiam do Centro Galático e nomeou as constelações de acordo com este conhecimento. Os maias identificaram o Centro Galático como Hunab Ku, que representa o Deus Supremo e Criador Supremo. É considerado como o "Últero da Mãe" que está constantemente dando a luz e deu a luz ao Sol e ao planeta Terra. Acredita-se que Hunab Ku direciona tudo que acontece na Galáxia a partir de seu centro através da emanação de explosões periódicas de "Energia da Consciência".

A energia do Centro Galático é transmitida principalmente por Júpiter, chamado de "Guru", o professor na astrologia védica, e por Sagitário. Júpiter é dito o professor dos Deuses, o poder cósmico da luz. A este respeito, ele é até mesmo o professor do Sol, que é o guia do mundo. Jupiter representa e direciona a Luz Galática para o sistema solar.

Essa associação de Mula com o Centro Galático sugere uma forte conexão com as forças primordiais e cósmicas, simbolizando a capacidade de acessar a sabedoria profunda e transformadora que pode vir a tona a partir de uma experiência intensa ou de uma busca espiritual. A influência forte de Mula pode sentir uma ligação profunda com essas energias cósmicas, manifestando um desejo de ir ao âmago das questões e buscar a verdade e sua forma mais crua e pura.

Ketu, o plenta que governa Mula, também trata em obter o fundo/núcleo de tudo. Ele armazena Karmas do passado e libera aqueles maduros o suficiente para serem vivenciados no presente. Pode ajudar a reunir as ferramentas necessárias para cumprir o objetivo na vida presente. Isto é sugerido pelo simbolismo das raízes amarradas. Mula, portanto, ajuda a reunir de maneira significativa os talentos que se desenvolveram em vidas passadas.

Mula tem haver com investigações de coisas invisíveis ou desconhecidas. Junto com o seu contraponto Ardra (que fica diretamente oposto no zodíaco) Mula tem senso de investigação mais forte e profundo entre todos os nakshatras. Mula está diretamente associado para fins medicinais. Em sistemas medicinais antigos como Ayuruda, raízes de várias plantas são usadas para a fabricação de medicamentos. Da mesma forma, Mula também se relaciona com a raiz das doenças, ou seja, microrganismos como vírus, bactérias, etc. Assim como tudo sob a jurisdição de Mula, esses microrganismos são invisíveis a olho nu. O fato das raízes estarem ligadas sugerem ideia de limitação. Como resultado, Mula muitas vezes não permite muita liberdade ou dispersão de energias e faz com que as pessoas mergulhe profundamente dentro de uma esfera limitada.

Mula Nakshatra é profundamente ligada à figura de Nritti, uma Deusa poderosa e enigimática da mitologia védica. Nritti é frequentemente associada á destruição, caos e dissolução, mas sua influência vai muito além de uma simples forçar destrutiva. Ela representa as forças primordiais que desconstroem e desmantelam para permitit que algo novo e mais autêntico possa surgir. Nritti é a Deusa da transformação através da destruição. Ela governa o processo de desintegração necessário para a renovaçãoe regeneração, refletindo a ideia de que para que haja crescimento, algo velho precisa ser desfeito. Em muitos aspectos, Nritti pode ser vista como a guardiãdas fronteiras entre o conhecido e o desconhecido, do conforto e do caos, simbolizando os momentos de crise que desafiam as antigas estruturas e crenças, preparando o caminho para o desenvolvimento pessoal e espiritual. O símbolo de Mula é um feixe de raízes amarradas, representando a exploração das origens, o desvelar das verdades mais profundas e a busca pela essência de qualquer situação. No entanto, para alcançar as raízes, é necessário passar por processos de destruição e descontrução, aspectos profundamentes ligados a energia de Nritti. Aqueles que têm planetas importantes em Mula Nakshatra podem experimentar momentos intensos de destruição e renascimento ao longo de suas vidas, sendo chamados a abandonar velhas identidades, crenças e situações para se transformarem em algo novo e mais verdadeiro.

A influência de Nritti em Mula também enfatiza a importância de enfrenatr o caos e o desconhecido como parte do camiho para a iluminação. Mula é o nakshatra de investigação profunda, onde a verdade buscada é revelada, muitas vezes de maneira dura e desafiadora. Nritti guia esta busca, assegurando que as ilusões sejam destruídas para que a verdade, por mais crua que seja, possa emergir.

É da natureza de Mula cortar e destruir rapidamente coisas que perderam o seu valor. Na maioria das vezes, lamenta as suas ações em retrospectiva. Somente quando sua vontade Universal é que Mula funciona de maneira sábia jupiteriana. A luta entre a universalidade e individualidade atinge aqui o seu auge, pois a individualidade está no seu auge de expressão. O processo de individualização começa em Ashwini, é celebrado em Magha e culmina as experiências individuais completadas em Mula. O além do domínio do ego e do egocentrismo, Mula é um nakshatra orgulhoso e arrogante e muitas vezes são incapazes de compreender o seu próprio poder e habilidades. Em alguns casos, isto é bom, pois a sua capacidades de infligir danos a si mesmo é restringida pela sua ignorância. Seu lado terrível e demoníaco vem do funcionamento negativo de Ketu em seus aspectos inferiores, podendo gerar ego, vaidade e arrogância, o que pode levar alguém a realizar ações abomináveis e demoníacas.
