Parijata yoga


In Hindu astrology, the term, Pārijāta yoga (Sanskrit: पारिजात) meaning – fragrance, night-flowering jasmine Nyctanthes arbor-tristis) refers to a yoga or planetary combination which is a Raja yoga. It is based on the Planetary Dispositor Principle. According to Parasara, Pārijāta yoga arises if the lord of the sign occupied by the lord of the Lagna (Ascendant) and the lord of the sign occupied by the dispositor of the lord of the lagna both, or if the lords of the navamsas occupied by these two lords are situated in a kendra or a trikona from the lagna-kendra in their own or exaltation signs. Parasara states that the person blessed with Pārijāta yoga will be fond of battles (i.e. strong-willed, full of determination, fearless, adept and successful), kind-hearted, forgiving and generous, has faith in Dharma and Karmas, a proud possessor and enjoyer of wealth and comforts and the one who leads a royal life during his or her middle and last part of life.

Pārijāta yoga is not a commonly occurring yoga, and in practice seen to occur alongside other favourable or unfavourable yogas. The Ruchaka yoga, Panch Mahapurusha yoga caused by Mars, in the 7th house from Libra lagna aspected by its lord, in the case of Adolf Hitler though marred by the presence of the Sun did give rise to the Pārijāta yoga but the Raja yoga effects did not last for very long because of Saturn in mutual aspect with Mars occupying the 10th house gave Hitler a spectacular rise and also an equally disgraceful fall from power.Gautama Buddha was blessed with Pārijāta yoga. At the time of his birth, the lord of the lagna, Moon, was in Libra in the 4th house from the lagna. Its dispositor, Venus, occupied the 10th house ruled by Mars. Venus was in its own navamsa, Taurus, and Mars in its exaltation navamsa, Capricorn. At the same time there was the occurrence of Pasa yoga that made him an ascetic, and of the Sanyasa yoga caused by five planets conjoining in the 10th house from Cancer lagna. The exalted Sun situated in the karmasthana as a constituent of the Sanyasa yoga made Buddha possess a strong Atman-shakti, he transformed the Vedic concept of the Triune-unity into Nirvana.
