Easy Jyotish Remedial Measure (Remedies to Nine Planets, Sade Sati, Kuja Dosha and others)

Easy Jyotish Remedial Measure ( Remedies )

Here are some easy ways of Vedic Astrology remedial measure. Some of the remedies I read in sites, classical texts etc. Some remedies I also got from my own experience. These measures are only my personal opinion - might strange pretty strange though. But I believe that people might be benefited from them, so I put them here. It is just a very humble attempt of me to help people.

You will find that sometimes I have suggested to avoid using materials pertaining to the planet(s) related. Do not take them always literal, that is not needed. But, try to link your activities and what sort of materials and other goods you use, when you run a particular Dasha period. You will surprisingly note that most of the times these items relate to the planet this way or that way, either for their natural significations or for their lordships. So, if you have a very bad Sun period in the past, try to remember if you have used any Sun sort of goods in that period or did any Sun sort of negative activities, such as being too authoritative on people. And then, avoiding such stuff again will be a powerful remedial measure for you!

About donations and charitable works - Donation and charity are sacrifices and that is why great positive karmas. This is believed that it also pacifies a harmful planet when that planet type of things are donated. Some also say that you might donate money to a poor for buying foods and medicine, but if he uses the money for bad purposes such as buying addictive drugs, then it is rather put upon your shoulder. Helping the old, poor, needy, distressed is a very good way - there can be no doubt that it leads to freedom from bad karma much or less. Donate foods, medicines, money and other materials to the poor. If you do not have money or any material to donate, then at least, say good and nice things, make the person feel better at least! It will surely not be overlooked by the God Almighty.

        I have repeatedly seen and been touched by how people suffer from poverty, no child issue, marital / relationship unhappiness, family troubles, job / career problems, facing death like accidents, illness, health problems, mental stress, depression, loneliness and other problems. Life becomes completely impossible to live then. Joy, sorrow and whatever a person faces all happen for the planets' effects. They are the causes. Here, Vedic Astrology shows many ways to reduce these bad effects at a large scale and gives people a new life to live. And that is possible by performing or taking appropriate remedial measure. That is why the remedies is a great blessing from the God.

        Performing remedial measure does not mean that we are outsmarting planets. But it is for the divine blessings in our charts that make us able to perform remedies successfully. I have seen many people being unable to take proper remedies even after trying so hard, and even taking wrong remedy to make it even worse! (I myself was a good example.) So, it is not in our hand, but a divine help or blessings. Actually, by performing Jyotish remedial measures, we are PROVING the indication in our charts, or making it come true that we will do that to overcome our problems. Because I have always seen that it is only good dasha periods that enable people to take good remedies. Generally people who try to take remedial measure in bad dasha periods end up getting nothing, unless a subtle benefic energy is connected somewhere. And this subtle benefic energy is often very hard to figure out, because our knowledge of Jyotish being so limited comparing to "what is happening inside". That is why, it answers the question that we should not sit idle even after knowing that everything is fixed. Everything is fixed, but we can not always understand it correctly, so part of it is always in darkness. That is why we should try with our worldly action to see what it implies at last, with the guidance of Jyotish.

        In my vision, serving people unconditionally is a way to find a way of relief, to make a remedial measure work successfully. (Or in other words, being able to find an appropriate way of remedy / remedies or being able to perform them successfully.)
