Sukar Nadi by Saptarishis Astrology’ Team

Maharishi Suka imparted his Jyotish knowledge to King Parikshit for the benefit of future generations. His teachings are also called ‘Suka Nadi.’  This work was originally rendered in Sanskrit and later translated in Tamil language by learned scholars. Now, Saptarishi Astrology Team has made an effort to translate it into English so that it will be useful to all. We understand that there can be some errors in our translation for which we beg the pardon of scholars & request them to submit the correct translation.

It is believed that Sukar Rishi resided in a place called Nedunkunram near Vandavasi, North Arcot District, Tamil Nadu. There is a passage in that mountain which is known as Sukar Nadhi (Sukar River).

The first 6 slokas deal with praising of Lord Ganesha and Lord Krishna.

(7) King Parikshit goes to Maharishi Suka as per the advice of Rishi Vyasa. Maharishi Suka says that he is under the influence of Maya and his curse is sort of cheating due to the shadow planet ‘Rahu’.

(8) King asks the Rishi about the Grahas and its results, whether one can overcome destiny by using his knowledge and intelligence like Markendeya

(9) Rishi telling the King about impossibility of overcoming destiny and one has to go through ones fate.

(10, 11 & 12) Rishi tells the King, that his teachings are not only meant for him but also to the entire populace, how he derives and removes the planetary differences to arrive at predictions, how after examining all other astrological texts rendered by other rishi’s, went into tapasya (meditation) and arrived at Sukar nadi.

(13) This Shloka describes various astrological texts that is assumed to be considered by Maharishi Sukar before writing this nadi & these texts are Jatalakankara, Kerelam, Janduu Nada Bhavam, Dwadasabhavam, Marana Kandikai, Parasaram, Yoga Agama Shastram, Sudama Muni’s Text before imparting to King Parikshit.

(14-19) Foreword written by Poet C.T.Kannisami Pillai for bringing out Sukar Nadi in Tamil.

In essence, the main text starts from sloka (20).

(20) Graha Yudh:

With Surya, Sani will lose its strength

With Sani, Mars will lose,

With Sani (scribe thinks in his own house), Guru will lose (probably in Makar and Aquarius, sani with guru, then guru lose its strength)

With Guru in his own house, Moon will lose its strength (probably Guru in Dhanur and Pisces, Moon will lose its strength)

With Moon, Venus will lose its strength

With Venus, Mercury will lose its strength

With Mercury in his own house, Moon will lose it strength.

Publishers Notes: Shloka 42 of Sukar Nadi mentions adultery & also defamation by wife if Saturn aspects. This cannot be subjected to blind interpretation & some caution has to be applied by the astrologer before coming to conclusion. To present a different angle a chart which has a twist to it is presented here.

Sun is not in 7H as per the Shloka 42 but it is in 4H, which is the phalam & karmam house of 7H of marriage.. The 5L of children Jupiter is combust with Sun and this gets a 5-degree close aspect from Saturn & Moon (mother & wife as it is in 7H). This noted Hollywood Film maker was accused of sexual exploitation of the kids by his wife Mia Farrow (She had adopted them). ‘On 1st Dec 1991, he began an affair with Soon-Yi (about age 21), one of Farrow’s adopted tribe.  When Farrow found out, it became a highly public explosion.  She accused him of molesting daughter Dylan on 4th Aug 1992, which was never proven.’ This Sun is with AL (image) so his image was brutally ruptured in public. All this started in Mer/Mer Dasa which is closely conjoint his Sun (4 deg) & Jup (1 deg) & aspected by Saturn from 7H of wife. Saturn is Putrakarka (children) for those who take 7 charakaraka scheme and Jupiter is the dispositor of Rahu placed in 5H again PK (children) for those who take 8 charakaraka scheme. It is worthy to note that Saturn Sun association brings in friction always.

Therefore, the condition of Saturn aspecting Sun is met here except Sun is not in the 7H, & the result ascribed by Sukar Rishi of defamation by wife was the result.
