(Mithuna-Karka Rashi)The seventh star in the horoscopic

chart is the Punarvasu Nakshatra. It is a congregation of five stars. It is in the degree from 80 to 93.20. The deity regulating it is Aaditi, the wife of Kashyapa Rishi. Aaditi is the mother of all deities (gods) and is called the mother of growth and

development. The word ‘punarvasu’ means (punar + vasatis) creation of new habitations

or shelters. In the human body, punarvasu indicates fingers. The first three phases (padas) of this Nakshatra are covered in the Mithuna Rashi and the fourth comes in

the Karka (Karkataka) Rashi.The speciality of the Punarvasu Nakshatra is that it

was the Nakshatra in which the great legendary emperor and the avatari purusha known as purushottama SRIRAMACHANDRA was born. This Nakshatra is good for house construction.

The Nakshatra is well-disposed ( propitious ) for the consecration of the idols of peaceful gods such as Vishnu and Sri Ram, performances of the samskaras such as Upanayana, Pumpsvan,, Seemantha, ( the samskaras before the birth of a child) good-begin-nings such as ‘starting of learning and writing of the letters, learning of grammar and the Veda Shastras, Enthronement ( Pattabhisheka), Pramanavachana sweekara ( Oath-taking ceremony), Politicking, Pallakki celebrations, purchase of new vehicles etc.

The persons born in the Punarvasu Nakshatra are tolerant, courageous and strong, essentially good-natured and lovers of truth. They undertake the difficult and challenging tasks on their own will. They strive to protect Dharma and love to lead a renounced life.

The persons born in the Punarvasu Nakshatra can take up the trade and business of cotton, salt,ghee, ice-cream, manufacture of groundnut oil,

earthen-wares glass and marine items , Sanitary wares and cosmetics, the Transportation of marine things, journey through seas, Navy employments. They can engage in the trade and business of Agase and Jaggery.

The birth-letters (Janmaksharas) of the persons born in the Punarvasu Nakshatra are: In the first pada ‘ke’, second pada ‘Ko’, third pada ‘ Ha’ or ‘H’ and in the fourth pada ‘Hi’.

The persons born in the First pada should wear coral jewellary, those born in the second pada should wear diamond, those born in the third pada should wear emerald green and those born in the fourth pada should wear pearls. The jewellery worn should weigh a minimum of three carrots.

For the persons born in the Punarvasu Nakshatra: Pushya, Anuradha and Uttarabhadra Nakshatras are wealth stars. So, they can undertake trade and business and money-lending activities.

Magha, Mula and Ashwini Nakshatras are welfare stars. These stars are favourable for welfare activities and important deeds. Kritika, Uttara and Uttarashadha are achievement –stars. In these stars, the person can undertake new businesses and trades and adventurous and ambitious enterprises.

Mrugashira, Chitta, Dhanista, Aaridra, Swati and Shatatara are the very friendly stars. Therefore, the persons in these stars can undertake the partnership business with the persons of these stars.

(To be continued…..)

The Solanki Family of the Badami Chalukyas, the Katwe family of Kalyani Chalukya and Rastraakuta empires and the Haihaya Habib family of the Kalachuri Cahlukya kingdom were all the Somavansh Kshatriyas. The word ‘Katwe’ is probably derived from ‘Manyakhetwe (Malkhed or Manyakhet is the name of the location from where Rastrakutas rose to power). These families were the blood relations. The Pallavas of Kanchi were also the Somavansha Kshatriyas.

The Royal family of Kalyan’s Kalachuri dynasty ruled its kingdom in Kalyan owing allegiance to the Chalukyas of Kalyani. Their forefathers had migrated to the Kalyan region. They were the descendants of the Yadavas and the Sahasrarjit Katyaveera dynasty.

The Kalyani Kalachuri kings have stated in their inscriptions that they belonged to the Haihaya lineage. The branches of these royal families are said to be the migrants from Gujrat’s Malava kingdom. Our elders say that our ancestors had come from Gujrat’s Mandgod. This supports the view that the descendents of Katyaveera has come from the Malava region of Gujrat. The descendent of this royal family Uchita was a king who owed allegiance to the Chalukyas of Kalyani.. King Uchita ruled from his capital Mangalavede (This is on the highway between Sholapur and Kolhapur).

Jogaman succeded Uchita. He gave

away his daughter Savaladevi to the Kalyani Chalukya king Vikramaditya in marriage. He ruled his kingdom delivering good administration. Jogaman’s son Permadi married Vikramaditya’s daughter princess Nagadevi. Thus both the families became blood relatives.

Badami Chalukya’s Prince Vikramaditya II (of the Solanki family) had made a successful conquest over the Pallava king Nandiverma. To commemorate this victory, his wife Lokamahadevi built the Virupaksheshwar Temple at Pattadkallu. The prince Kirtiverma II attacked Kanchi and defeated the Pallavas. To commemorate that victory, his queens Lokambika and Trilokambika built Lokeshweara and Trilokeshwara temples. These queens were the sisters and were the daughters of Kalachuri Haihaya king. This piece of the information is inscribed in the Pattadkallu inscription.

The Haihaya kings were the descendent’s of Sri Sahasrarjuna Maharaj’s lineage. Thus, the Kalachuris and the Badami Chalukyas (Solankis) were the blood relatives. History has recorded and confirmed these facts.

Let Environmental Protection be our Primary Concern

As human beings, we have already done much harm to the environment. The more civilized we became; the more reluctant we have become to act and live as part of the nature. Thanks to the essential psyche of Indians. Compared to our counterparts elsewhere in the other countries, we stand as hope for others in the protection of environment. But yet, we have failed to retain the purity of our rivers and lack the basic sense of cleanliness.

Our forest coverage is still below the expected mark though we have striven better to enhance and develop our forest cover-age through the social forestry schemes and programmes. We worship our rivers as sacred goddesses and yet pollute them.

We worship the god of Air and pollute it. This contradiction in our thought and action should be stopped. Our traditions and the basic philosophy have always been insisting on ‘be eco-friendly’ and on treating the fauna and flora with dignity and devotion. Let us redeem our pledge to follow the basic tenets of our philosophy and broad outlook of life. Let us conserve, pro-tect and enhance the environment around us. Let us remember that while taking the ‘theertha’ (holy water) in the presence of deities, we swear that water is the elixir of life and holy. We swear that we use it with utter devotion and thoughtfulness. Let us use water frugally.

Trees are living beings. They give us oxygen and keep the air clean. They regulate the climate and help to hold rain in the ground. They are the soil conservers and prevent erosion of soil. They prevent land slides and floods. The trees give us food, fodder, fertilizer, fuel and fiber. Trees can survive without man but man cannot live without trees. The ideal forest coverage should be one-third of the geographical area. We have to plant more and more trees not necessarily in the forest but around our habitations. We have to nurture them and protect them. We have to preserve them for posterity.

We have to achieve higher standards of living without sepa-rating ourselves from our heritage and without despoiling na-ture of its beauty, freshness and purity so essential to our lives.

The whole process of environmental protection needs the participation of the entire World. The present crisis and pro-cess of change challenges present international policies. The growing awareness of ‘one earth’ and ‘one environment’ should guide us to the concept of ‘one humanity’. Therefore, the afflu-ent countries should bear the burden of costs of environmental protection of the backward countries.

The population explosion, poverty, ignorance and disease, the pollution of our surroundings, the stock piling of nuclear weapons and biological and chemical agents of destruction are all parts of a vicious circle. As modern beings, we have to re-establish an unbroken link with nature and with life. We must again learn to involve growing things and to recognize as our ancients in India did centuries ago. We have but to take from the earth and atmosphere only so much as we can put back into them.

In a hymn to Earth, the sages of the Atharva Veda chanted: “What of thee I dig out, let that quickly grow over, let me not hit thy vitals or thy heart”.

Thus, let us be vital and of good heart and conscious of our responsibility.

KSHATRIYA COMMUNITY SHOULD BE ORGANIZED

“Kshatriya Community is spread all over India. There have been 36 sub-groups within the larger community. All the Kshatriyas irrespective of their sub-castes or groups should be united. The entire Kshatriya community’s all round progress and development is the main aim and objective of the Kshatriya Swayam Seva Sangha” social worker of the community Raghavendra Kabadi said so.

Raghavendra Kabadi said that the Kshatriya Samaj has

its own special social position as they were the sole ruling classes. Even today the Kshatriyas act whenever the country faces challenges and dangers. Our people today should unite and protest and claim their due governmental concessions and facilities. The grass root solidarity would empower the Kshatriya Mahasabha. To achieve this objective the voluntary service organizations are formed.

Tuljanasa Kabadi called upon the people to strive for Dharma Jagrati and for raising the self-esteem of our people. The great valiants and indomitable kings and emperors like

Maharaja Pratap Singh, Shivaji Maharaj, Prithviraj Chauhan should be remembered.

Dr. Smt. Sunita Hiralal. Merwade

DESIGNEDfor a bright career!

She hails from the illustrious House of Khodays

family of Bengaluru and could have easily joined the movers and shakers’ brigade, but she’s one girl who decid-ed to strive on her own. After studying at Sophia High School, graduating from Mount Car-mel College and completing a fashion design course from the Vogue Institute of Fashion Tech-nology, 26-year-old Chandni Khoday realised her inclination towards art and design. “I was always good at sketching since childhood so I decided to study design and get into the fash-ion industry. After my course, I worked with designer Pallavi Foley for two years and she taught me all about jewellery and jewellery design. She was a great mentor and made me realise that I had potential and that I should pursue more in life. I wasn’t yet ready to start out on my own, but there was a keen willingness to learn more. I have always be-lieved that there is noth-ing in this world that one cannot do and I was lucky to join the The Collonnade,” gushes the pretty and petite Chandni.

It wasn’t all hunky dory in the Khoday family for the daughter of KN Madhusudan and Shamala. “I come from a fam-ily where girls get married right af-ter college. Luck-ily, my parents have always been quite liberal with my brother and me. They always supported me and encouraged me to create my own world and live it the way I want to. Now I’m independent of my family and everything that I

am today is because I wanted to be financially independent. I’m strong and independent, yet calm and patient, free spirited and a fun loving person,” she states emphatically. We won-der if people question her on why she decided to work for someone e l s e , o t h e r t h a n t h e fam-i l y

business, she retorts saying, “No one really asks me directly. I’m still in the process of learn-ing. I feel women should under-stand that they have unlimited capacity and they can do any-thing that they want to.”

A typical day in her life in-cludes client relationship man-agement, planning, coordinating and executing events, liasoning between the brands and being the face of the brand. Talking of the challenges at work, she says, “I pretty much find a way to get my way through every-thing. My boss Mickey Bawa of In2 Luxury has been a great mentor. He has always been there during hard times at work and empowers me to be stronge. He has groomed me to face all the challenges. I handle a little bit of everything for all the luxury brands and

manage The Collonnade as a brand in itself.”

Talking of her other passions, she recalls, “I love travelling and reading. I love danc-ing as well. Once, I decided to go back-packing alone to Goa to overcome my fear of

deep waters. My friend and I got into the beach,

right behind our hostel. We got into the water at

midnight and went deep in-side the water. That’s when I

realised that the calmest part of the ocean is not at the shore. But sadly, just when I was let-ting go of my fear and en-joying the moment, the life-guards came and chased us out, but that bold moment, helped

me emerge as a strong-er and fearless person.” About her future plans, she adds, “I would love to travel abroad and work there for a while and see where life takes me.”
