4. Quest for Right Key in Astro-Medicine
• Health and diseases are
the extremes of Life
• Physical, Psychological,
Sociological,
Environmental, Spiritual,
etc., bodies are noticed in
the evaluation of Disease
• Are we able to get a right
key for knowing the state of
disease through the
position of astral bodies in
natal horoscope?
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
5. Normal :: Abnormal
Arogyam :: Health :: Sukham :: Comfort
Vyadhi :: Disease :: Duhkham :: Agony
• Many methods are used to evaluate Health / Disease
– Rasi (Avayava) Method (Parashara Basic)
– Drekkona Method (Parashara Advanced)
– Navamsha (Karakamsha) Method (Jaimini Basic)
– Kulaka Method (Jaimini Advanced)
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
6. Astro-medicine is Real or virtual
• Anticipating the disease and its Remedial
measures through the celestial bodies is Astro-
Medicine
• The scientific reasoning behind is –
– Electromagnetic forces
– Gravitational forces
– Radiation forces
– Radio activity forces, etc.
• Thus the scientific medical astrology is real – not at all
Virtual science
• The question here is – All these what we pronounce are
they known to the Ancient Acharya?
• – The answer is YES! May be in another nomenclature.

7. Loka Purusha Samyata
• Purusha equates to
• LuÉÉqÉrÉÇ sÉÉåMüxÉÇÌWûiÉ: mÉÑÂwÉ: Universe

pÉÉuÉÌuÉzÉåwÉÉxiÉÉuÉliÉ: mÉÑÂwÉå, sustains in Universe
exists in Purusha & vice
rÉÉuÉliÉ: mÉÑÂwÉå iÉÉuÉliÉÉå sÉÉåMåü CÌiÉ –
versa

19. Dwara and Bahya Rasi in disease
• Usually the 6th bhava reflects the disease - wɹpÉÉuÉaÉqÉç . . .
LãlÉ gÉÉxrÉÍxÉ eÉÉiÉxrÉ SåWåû UÉåaÉuÉëhÉÉÌSMüqÉç – oÉ×WûimÉUÉzÉU WûÉãU 18/1
• Jaimini introduces the Dwara – as Dasha – arambha rasi
• SzÉÉxÉërÉÉå ²ÉUqÉç – eÉæÍqÉÌlÉxÉÔ§ÉqÉç 2-4-2
• And Bahya – iÉiÉxiÉÉuÉÌiÉjÉÇ oÉɽqÉç - eÉæÍqÉÌlÉxÉÔ§ÉqÉç 2-4-2 – that
many from the dwaram is Bahyam
• Any malefic associations to these cause the diseases
• All the combinations of Rasi are attributed to the
diseases
• Much times it is referred Rasi - occasionally from Lagna
8th or 6th to 6th or a specified Rasi cause the disease –
Eg: if Karkataka becomes the karakamsha lagna or
lagnesha – the native gets frequent attacks of Fever
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
20. Kulakam
(Thrimshamsha)

– 11 – 15 = naval and abdomen
– 16 – 20 = lower abdomen to Private organs
– 21 – 25 = legs and calf
– 26 – 30 = ankle and foot
• The relation to the planet in a Kulaka of a Rasi in
respect to Karakamsha lagna and Adhipathi position
is considered
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
21. • As an example – of Kulaka method
– sÉsÉÉOåû mÉëjÉqÉqÉç
– MåüzÉqÉç ̲iÉÏrÉ:
– ÂÍkÉUqÉç iÉ×iÉÏrÉ:
– cÉiÉÑjÉÉãï lÉã§Éã
– ÍxÉÇWûÉSÉæ mÉÇcÉqÉå
– wÉ¹Ç ÎeÉÀûÉaÉëã
• The set told is fit to the Mesha – but the same
way, a detailed study is required in this
concern
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
22. “ Treatment can be defined
as Karma Vipaka” Karma Vipaka
• Karya (Effect) in Present –
Karana (Cause) is a factor of
past.
• Action of Past Life + Action of
Present life = Cause of
Disease.
• Ayurveda - tell about causative
action of this life
• Astrology - tell about causative
actions of past life
• So to understand and remove
complete cause it is important
to know both causes
• Ayurvedic medicines +
Astrological remedies =
Complete Treatment
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
23. Karma vipaka at Basava Rajiya
• Debilitated planet
• Planet position in zodiac signs
• Inter planet relation as 6/8, 2/12 The disease precipitates
in the body
• Acc. Planet dasa
• Savarnagamana = vatarakta, sleepada, bhagandhara
• Para stree gami = apasmara, ashmari
• Tiryakjantugami = kusta, prameha, shoola
• Astama guru = amavata
• Chaturdha shani = hrudroga
• Past life effects –krura, pishuna, hantaka

24. Homa Therapy– Sacred fire
• Homa, is a sacred fire prepared at certain
biorhythmic timings of nature (Muhurtha) followed
by sacred hymns called rituals.
• Many people of Indian heritage followed Homa
(Yajna) since ages, daily at sunrise and sunset with
simple Agnihotra.
• Homa as a therapy needs pretty small amount of
time and money.
• Those who do it regularly report vastly improved
concentrations, relaxation, increased energy levels,
and many more physical and psychological
problems relived. Even more important is they are
simply happier more then ever before.
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
25. Present state of Research
• It is very difficult to the Vaidya-Jyotisha Practitioner to
practice –
– as many rules that are told in texts are not substantiated at
present
– Much practitioners exploits the text rules and makes ones to
get a fitment in a convenient flex-frame
– No data of research is available for emphasizing and framing
the standards
– Many published data also not fits in another example – and
seems as fake
Dr. K. Shiva Rama Prasad, at http://technoayurveda.wordpress.com/
26. • Thus a standard research protocol of
– Prototype
– Polygonal
– Multi-center
– Research is necessary under the collaboration of Astro-
Medical experts
