Raagini,
ON your chart I guess the break should be around 2005 ie during the Ju/Ma-Me or Ju/Ma-Mo period.
Don mistake for discussing about the past now, but it is required to have some prediction regarding the future. Basically I am trying to find out the highest malefic for the marriage/relationship in your chart.
It seems to me as Me, Ju then Ma.
1. Ma is debliated in 7th ; no neecha banga
2. 7th lord Mo is in 6th house with 3,12th lord Ju (but gajakesari yoga is there; you might have a win over your enemies and diseases)
3. 6th lord Me is aspecting the 7th house from 12th house (there are other views which are good for official life)
4. Is it possible for you to wait untill Sa-Ve period? though the Ju transit to 5th house will be beneficial to some extent.

But since Ve is strong after some struggle you are finding another relationship , again the strength and longitivity has to be deterimined.

anyhow I will check the boys chart and come back.
Regards,

Hi Astroguy,

thanks so much for your reply. Had given up hope so didn't check back.

My first marriage took place in 2004 end (dec) and broke in Jan 2009. At the end of my jupiter MD and 6 months before the beginning of my Saturn MD, which was in June 2009.

The boy's first marriage ended in real terms end 2010 beginning 2011. His divorce is in process and comes through in a few months. He was married at age 26. MD AD unknown of that time.

Thanks,

Mrinalini

Hello Forum Members,

Is there any guidance you can provide me for my next mahadasa? What should I look forward to in my next mahadasa - I think I'll be completing Mangal MD and entering Rahu MD in the August time frame... Will this dasa be positive, negative, or neutral for me? Is Rahu a friendly graha in my charts? How can I evaluate this - what should I look at to determine whether Rahu is beneficial or harmful for me?

My birth information is:
February 3, 1980, 14:20
Montreal, Canada (45°30' N, 73°35' W)

Rahu sits in my third house in my rasi, with three other grahas (Moon, Jupiter, and Mars). What remedies do you recommend for me?

Thanks!

Hi explorings:
May I please request you to kindly have a look at my chart and please let me know when I might get a job - Quit my job in July mid 2011. Being highly educated I have never found it difficult to get another job. But ever since my Guru MD started, career problems (in finding a quick job) have started.
Eagerly waiting for your response.
Thanks and regards,
Neel
My birth details : 29th August 1974, 19:10 hours, Ambarnath (Maharashtra)

Ra is aspecting major benefic planets such as Ju, Ve, Mo, and even Mercury. It is conjunct with its dire enemy Mars and Moon, placed in Ketu's NK and in another enemy, Sun's house. Its dispositor, Sun is placed inimically in its enemy house, Capricorn. 3rd and 9th axis contains most of the planets incl. LL, Ra and Ke and hence matters related to these two houses will be affected.

Vargottam Ju is the only saving grace here but it too suffers kendra adhipati dosha and is retro.

Ra MD will be stressful and effects. Chances of foreign trips or stay away from place of birth are likely throughout this dasha.

Following is recommended:
- Kunjika Stotra (twice daily).
- Hanuman Chalisa and MMM (21 times daily)
- wearing pushkaraj will help.

dont know if it makes sense but I have a very similar almost identical scenario
i've had exact experiences like you, may sound freaky but its true ... see below
Saindhavi wrote:Explorings,

Thanks for sharing your experiences and remedies for each period.

Your comment about Rahu as a virus which mutates unexpectedly is very apt! :D

Rahu and Ketu are impersonators. And especially Rahu is said to manifest in many secret and unexpected forms and chage forms at will - remember, he is "Danava-Mantri" - a master strategist for the Danavas who had the power to change their forms at will in the ancient mythology. Viruses are also related to Rahu. :)

The aspect of people coming to me as reliable friends and suddenly turning into enemies, plotting behind my back and stabbing me continued throughout my Rahu Mahadasha and even into Jupiter period, though in Jupiter period its degree and frequency is much less and it doesn't cause me serious harm.
"Done by mostly relatives and friends"

Here is my Rahu - Mercury experience - For the first time in my life, I knew shortage of money. I had enough to pay for my needs, but never more and never for living a life of comforts.
"First time I experienced life without enough money, not enough for basic necessities"

My asthma also aggravated during this period and I had some severe attacks - but I have chronic asthma since birth, only during Rahu-Mercury I had some very serious attacks. Education was good, topped in my class. But anxiety about career prospects and conflicts with family increased at this time. No effort I took in the direction of future career materialised.
"Always was a topper, but college education got interrupted multiple times. Always worried about future, mostly career. Although greed increased immensely. I'm think my mercury is bad"

In contrast to this, during my Jupiter-Mercury, I lived virtually a royal lifestyle and made some achievements in my career. So, my Mercury in itself is not bad.
"Jupiter dasha will start in 2014"

I must add here that you were lucky to get remedies during Rahu Mahadasha.

Till I reached the end of Rahu-Sun period, I didn't know astrology, didn't want to know about it, didn't care about it and wasn't even much religious. I didn't even know my time of birth.
"I started taking interest and getting religious last year in Rahu-Sun. Now in Rahu-Moon the mental agony is unbearable."

However, by the end of Rahu-Sun period, the aspect of people stabbing in my back and my personal life reached such a low depth that I was almost like a vegetable, in a severe depression, feeling as if the world had ended and my research about to be discontinued because of the severe emotional problems I faced.
"what a coincidence, i was finishing up my thesis/research which had been lingering for almost 2 years, lost a job, family issues, etc. but wanted to get done with my thesis so that i could get my degree but just couldn't finish. finally, when Rahu-Sun ended i defended and got over with it in Rahu-Moon"

It was at this time that I asked my mother for my time of birth and sought some astrologers.

Just as the remedies come to us only when we are destined to benefit from them, a right astrological reading also comes to us only when we are destined to get it.

Without mentioning name, I went to a world-renowned astrologer, who is a leading name. He looked at my chart and refused to believe that this was my chart - without even asking me who I was and what I was doing, to correlate with what he saw in my chart!

Finally, I found an astrologer who read my chart and told me I was going through Rahu Mahadasha. By this time Rahu-Sun was over and Rahu-Moon had started.

I had some strange psychic experiences at this time. I saw some dreams where a divine woman told me to worship Durga. I asked an astrologer and he said since I was going through Rahu, I should get Durga Saptashti recital done with a homam.
"I was told to go to Durga temple recently"

But, by the time I found a learned priest to do this, Rahu Mahadasha was over. I got this done anyway.
"How was your Rahu-Mars period"

My Jupiter Mahadasha turned the sinking ship around, helped me to finish my research and gave me a very good life.

In the computer chart I made, it said my Rahu's power is 99%.

Perhaps that's why I didn't get a right astrological reading, nor the remedy for Rahu when I needed it the most.

Anyway, Rahu Mahadasha taught me how the world functions and how many types of strategies people use to get ahead by trampling others. It also taught me never to trust in any human blindly.

I don't have much faith in humanity now.

Excellent posts!
I can sum up my Rahu MD as 'lady luck'! - Lady luck is rich but she's cruel as a witch..one day you live in a high and the next day you're in a ditch.
But I do miss the highs the period had given me. Though the lows have been bitter and painful.
One thing that I see being repeated in the posts in this topic is about relationships overall or with anyone. I too came across the ugliest of people at heart. This period taught me not to trust anyone easily..in a hard way.
But the highs..oh yes..soared up in the limitless sky - be it higher education from prestigious institutes or professionally..miss the period for the highs..especially moreso because my Jupiter MD hasn't started off well yet.
But then the lows..they make me feel that 'thank God, my Rahu MD is over'!

Neel,
Thanks for sharing your experience summary. I would agree that it also gave me an opportunity to go to very prestigious schools top 10 engineering schools, working for fortune 50 companies actually one of the top 10 and best in the field,
however currently the lows are bad relative to the highs that I had
how's your jupiter dasha so far? did it bring in stability in terms of location/place of residence and relationships with people?

forgot to add, Rahu-Ven period was the best in terms of gains, although there was pain but the gains made it worth, Rahu-Sun was the worst period not only of the Rahu dasha but of life so far
anyone had dreams of snakes? i dont usually remember my dreams but last year and even currently i get dreams about snakes only king cobras, how awkward is that? initially i thought it was because of me watching discovery/natgeo quite often.
One thing to add though, as time progresses I'm getting what i wished for but it is taking a while (3-4 yrs) and aspirations are getting higher by the day
Not to bring bad luck to myself but the dreams and visions I had say 7-8 yrs ago are fructifying eventually now, its not an achievement, but feels good to have your intuitive faculty being accurate to the T

Here is an easy remedy for Rahu -

Recently, someone told me to wear a necklace of sandalwood beads. I tried and it works! :)

I have crossed my Rahu Mahadasha and am going through Jupiter now - I am the one who wrote the Rahu experiences in blue quoted above.

During Rahu Mahadasha I didn't get the remedy. Now I am being told about them and am finding them useful, so I thought I should let others know.

Even in Jupiter Mahadasha Rahu's effect is there, though in reduced degrees. After I wore the sandalwood necklace, at least the sudden storm didn't occur to wipe out every hard work done.

So, perhaps those who are going through Rahu can wear it and see if it helps.

Make sure that sandalwood is genuine.

PS - yes, dreams about snakes and dreams coming true in future are typical of Rahu Mahadasha - also seeing ghosts and hearing voices and having hallucinations.

Hi Saindhavi,

I never had dreams of snakes and ghosts (though i love watching ghosts movies) during rahu period but dreams, other than snakes, really came true.
Basab

I have seen dreams of snakes a lot many times, though I was not running the Rahu period or sub-period when I saw them. A few dreams I have seen has come true, but then, again they were not in the Rahu period or sub-period.

I have rarely seen dreams of ghosts..except towards the last part of Rahu MD - just once or twice of grandparents. But I have seen lot of dreams of snakes towards the end of my Rahu MD and early beginning of my Jup MD. Not recently though.
But, one of the dreams I see (rather until recently..not anymore) that I have climbed a tall building and then unable to climb down as there are no stairs or elevators- so the only option is to crawl down the outer walls of the building. Very scary and nervous dream indeed.
Another dream is I am in a narrow, dark tunnel/hole and cant move out of it and am suffocated.
One more is that I can fly-just a little off the ground - this one is pleasant.
One more that I am in the middle of a war - and am running for cover.
And then, one dream about being totally unprepared for next-day exams or my biology journal being totally incomplete before the assessment or collecting study notes at the last moment (though it's been ages now since I have hung up my boots from academics!)

[quote="explorings"][quote="hymallik"]Goodday to you all!

My Rahu dasa started recently from 4th Sep 2011. I am happy till 16th of this month and on 17th I received a phone call that a criminal case was booked against me in an event in which my involvement is zero.

Today I am away from my home waiting for anticipatory bail.

I am lighting sesame til lemon diyas in Durga temple in Rahukalam for the previous three days (which I learned from this thread - thanks to Saindhavi & exprorings for their guidance ). Today I performed special Rahu Ketu Pooja in Sri kalahasti & tomorrow I am visiting Durga temple in Vijayawada.

How will be my next days? Please throw some light on to my chart & guide me for the next 18 years of Rahu MD

MY DETAILS :
DOB ; 02:09:1968
TOB. : 06:18 am
POB. : Narasannapeta, Andhrapradesh
Moola 4th paada

Some important events in my life :
Marriage : 19:03:1995 10:36 pm
Date of joining the Government job : 28:09:1996
Date of next level of promotion : 28:09:2000
Son DOB. : 03:10:2000
Daughter DOB. : 07:11:2011(Ardhashtama Sani is running for my daughter. Will it affect me....? )

Please help me by suggesting any remedies to overcome the present situation & what will be my next dasa predictions?

Thank you[/quote]

Ra/Ke placed on 8/2 axis in Meena/Kanya (lords: Ju/Sat) rasi and Nakshatra of Mercury/Moon. Rahu is neutral but Ketu is downright malefic. Your Ra MD will expand the qualities of 8th house basically adversities.

You chart shows:
- Dispositor of Rahu, Jupiter is well placed in friendly sign of Leo in conjunction with ascendant lord.
- 7L is debilitated and vargottam. But its retro, a debilitated retro planet works as a normal planet but with delayed effects. Saturn is placed in enemy sign.
- Mars, which is Yogakaraka (the most auspicious planet) for Leo ascendants is debilitated in rasi and averagely placed in navamsa. 9L, which controls fate and fortune should not be debilitated.
- Venus is debilitated but receives neechbhanga from exalted Mercury.

Ra MD will be mixed... nothing bad will happen till May 2012 as Ju is transiting through 9H. Wife should take care of her health.

Have you done Kal Sarpa Shanti. If not get that done.

Remedies:
- Kal Sarpa Shanti and Saturday fast a must. Eat one time meal on Saturdays and do not consume onion or garlic.
- Durga Saptashati/Chandi Path honam and recital during any navratris (currently navratri is going on and if you are planning to visit Durga temple... you should get it done).
- Daily recital of Mahamrityunjaya Mantra, Hanuman Chalisa, and Kunjika Stotram (twice).
- Donate black things such as blanket, whole urad dal, etc. to poor.

Hanuman Chalisa and Bagalmukhi Strotra (twice) will help you with litigation.

Dear explorings!

Thanks for the timely help and the remedies. My problem looks like mitigated (appears to be ...!). I am doing the remedies stated by you and chanting Durga Sapthasathi daily. So far Rahu Mahadasa is not doing any serious harm to me.
More over, I am not facing any of the signs and symptoms of Rahu mahadasa except the criminal case I have stated. Is it because of the remedies I am performing?

One more request....

In the above post, you have stated that : "nothing bad will happen till May 2012 as Ju is transiting through 9H. Wife should take care of her health" .
Today is 16th May and what will happen due to the Jupitor transit? will it harm me ? Please suggest me so that I will be more careful.
Thank you

I completed my Rahu dasa recently though I still feel that energy within me.

Anyway its nice to hear so many people speaking out their experience of this dasa.Most of these sound so much like my life!!

My Rahu MD started very early in my life at the age 3.Well,to be precise at 2.5 years!


Starting with Rahu-Rahu :

Health was what I would call rock bottom.Had terrible problems with health and visits to the doctors were regular.I do not remember a whole lot since I was very young at that time.

Then Rahu-Jupiter:

I think I can safely say that this was not only one of the best times of Rahu MD but also of my entire life till now! Though I wasn't all well in health (Suffered from Measles,chickenpox,jaundice and an appendix operation ...all one after the other like..one every year in a row! so this probably started with Jupiter AD and got carried to Saturn AD...oh and I also got my specs for the first time in Saturn AD)

But besides the health issues,this was a great time.I had many friends during this time.I was teacher's favorite.Popular in my school.Was brilliant academically!I also remember topping the school exams every time.This was also true for the first half of Saturn AD.
Now when I look back at it,the most surprising part was this that there was a girl who had a crush on me back then! And that alone made us popular in the whole class LOL..yeah it was quite open(we were just 8-9 years old and the environment was unbelievably matured!) However,I never liked her and didnt really care about her feelings at all (something that will come to haunt me back later)
Overall,it was a great period academically and for my relations.I also gained weight here.

Followed by Rahu - Saturn :

Now things started changing.It felt like I was flying and I suddenly hit the ground.
The girl shifted to America.Academic performance dropped a bit but not much.I was still in the teacher's good books.The school principal knew me as well (It matters! lol).I got in company of guys who spoke foul language.I too learned the lingo.
Things for not bright for my family though and we decided to shift to Delhi (I'm from Mumbai)We took a very bad decision ,after the Diwali vacations (that is after completing the first half of that academic year)
I was made to leave the school and shifted to delhi with my family.One of our relatives betrayed us.He had promised to set up my father with a job (a respectable position in his factory or maybe there were going to enter partnership).We were to buy a new house,get me in a school there so I could continue my studies there and since almost all of my maternal relatives are there ,it was easy for them to convince us.However,nothing happened!
The only things that actually happened were that I lost an academic year.I was at home for over 6 months playing video games and doing nothing.Just at home 24/7.
I saw my parents weep in front of me helplessly as we lost our residence and all our money that our relative had "borrowed" on the pretext of investment.We were almost on the streets and had it not been for God's grace...don know what would have happened.
My mother lost a lot of health and father lost almost all his confidence.My elder brother had to shoulder the responsibility.Though they didn't let it affect me too much but I was always the extra sensitive types.I knew what was going on and the possible impact it can have.
Anyway we did ,by God's grace,return to Mumbai.Broke and without a residence ..took sometime to get back in shape.There was tremendous struggle and I missed a year at studies.It was due to this hit that I also developed inferiority complex later when saw other kids living their childhood!

Anyway,except for the Jupiter AD ,I didnt really have many friends ,neither did I go down to play with other kids.I was a shy person who didnt speak much.After all of this ,I was an even quieter guy.

Rahu-Mercury:
Back in Mumbai,started attending school (the same school)...scored well to everyone's surprise.No friends! None!
Gradually got in the company of mean,base kids.
They were over matured for their age I must say.Watched things they shouldn't,talked things they shouldn't...it was a bad environment!
Only positive thing was that as I was slowly accepted in this new batch (which was of kids who were a year younger than me) ,I found out that there is a girl who likes me.However,again I wasn't interested ,didn't give a damn,few were surprised but my attitude was very closed types and careless (something that I regret today..like I should have handled the situation better..its never a good idea to hurt anyone's feelings)
By the end of this time I'd started having skin problems that only gor worse with time until I entered Sun AD.

Rahu - Ketu:

Things were silent.Lost my academic records.Lost my interest in studies.All this while,there was a lot of tension at home.No support from any relatives.They all turned inimical ,both paternal and maternal.
I'd lost my motivation and my aim.
Had very very few friends and they were not really friends...just people I know.It was during this time that I as if started turning invisible to others.Was left out of the social circle and it had nothing to do with what happened in previous years in school.I was just left out as an odd kid who was "uncool" and enough fun to be with.

Rahu-Venus:

I made few friends.Almost all of them front benchers.Lifted up my academic performance.No,it didnt meet the level that I used to carry once very proudly..topping in my school but..it was better than what I had off late then.
I was craving for a relation but had no chance.I wasn't really popular in school anymore.Started hating my life and all the problems at home combined with my social problems (many of which I haven't mentioned it...includes some tragic experiences ) I was contemplating suicide! seriously!
And I would try to cut myself ... but since it was a small apartment and I didnt have the space I was stopped early and didnt give it another shot but I remember using sharp plastics ( the kind you have to pack battery cells..the sharp edge) when I couldn't find anything else.But there was always some interference.Now when I think of it,it was like a divine interference!
I did well in my board exams but did very bad in my relations ..with friends and anyone.
This was also the time when we first got a PC at home and slowly from a casual user of Orkut and email ,I turned my attention towards cyber crime ...hacking.Not to mention much about it but yeah I was pretty successful with it and got hugely interested in computers.So much that I would take it up as a subject in college.

Rahu-Sun

College time!I think my sadesati started sometime during this period.I saw a lot of travelling but was in one of the best and coolest colleges of town.Did commerce and had taken up Maths and IT as electives.Excelled in IT.Got popular cause of academic performance especially in IT.Was on good terms with my professor.
Made decent friends and enjoyed.
However later ,during the end of this period and start of Moon AD (this ,I believe,was the period when sadesatti started)..I also got in the company of base men at my classes.Something that I'll regret like hell in the next period.

Rahu - Moon:
This period was terrible!Horrible!Got defamed for nothing...wasnt liked by anyone.Everyone teased and talked behind my back for no reason.Was still on good terms with professors at classes and college.Academically was doing fine but my social life wasnt nill..it was negative!
I had to face a lot of troubles.I was being picked up everyday for everything by everyone...girls ,guys...acquaintances,old friends ..just everyone.
I was the person that they loved to hate and I was such a magnet at it for no explainable reason!
Then this is heights! I trusted some guys and told them my above average computer skills.Now these people,they set me up,they posed as if their FB account was hacked and posted indecent messages about girls as their status (these girls were our mutual friends at classes...as in they knew me obviously and were friends with them).Then the put the blame on me convincing everyone that it was actually me.

Well there was a loads of crap happening to me back then..most of which I'd like to forget.To be honest I haven't mentioned even 50% of it.I'm glad I don't remember it all at once cause I don't want to.Again,I learned to not trust anyone!

Though I believe that most of the people know the truth as it surfaced later ..

The later half of this Moon AD was very good academically and comforts wise.It was pretty sweet ..when I got into higher studies for under graduation.I changed my stream from commerce to science!! Got into IT

Rahu - Mars

Not a great time but did ok.Was still craving for a relation for some reason.Did excellent academically all this while surprising few close friends ,relatives and family members who found it amazing despite all the problems I have at home.

Made friends with a girl I liked.She liked me too ...wouldnt go a day without talking to me...something happened after I entered the second phase of sadesatti ..she started liking another guy who made her stop talking to me and she obliged happily! I felt cheated,deceived and betrayed ...I was completely heart broken ,lost my mind...and academic scores hit rock bottom

I was forewarned of this by an astrologer (actually multiple) but didn't pay heed.This got me into astrology eventually.I havent really got over it yet but well am trying...still haunted


This was rather a short extract of my experience.I did achieve sudden and unexpected success and benefits but the downfalls were huge.Pattern I observed was being deceived by everyone,being left alone,no mental support,what went around came around esp at the start,loads of health issues in the first half.
My perspective - life was hell! still not much better but am glad it got over about half a month ago!!

I know that some say that a until a kid turns 12 his fate is guided by the fortunes of his or her parents but I dont really believe in that.And yes I do not blame Rahu completely...cause the other 8 planets were definitely not sleeping,I mean why was Jupiter AD great and Sun AD acceptable.Cant rule out transits either.However I do notice patterns and yes it was miserable.

Big Edit

Oh and yes I did have dreams about snakes and other dreams some of which turned out to be true.This I experienced when Saturn was almost exactly over my natal moon .I also dreamed the new guy calling me up telling me to stay from this girl and it happened! though 2.5 months later!

I strongly believed that whatever happened ,happened for good cause I know that I owuld have been a different young man had I not been through such testing times.Would have been much like those teenagers who spend their money on drinking and smoking ,ride at fast speed with girls and stay out all night,dont respect anyone...I dont wanna be that but I wouldnt have realized the truth of life if this wouldn't have hit me at such a tender age ...so a big lesson learnt early!

Another Edit:

It maybe interesting to know that my Rahu is in the lagna (first house) and in the sign of Sagittarius (where some believe that it attains neecha state) in the PurvaShadha nakshatra.It is under aspect from Jupiter from 9th house and by Mars from 10th.

Kunal,

Rahu will continue to have effect in its minor periods even during Jupiter Mahadasha.

Rahu-Ketu both are debilitated and Ketu will obstruct your marriage prospects.

You need to wear yellow sapphire 4.5 carats set in gold and white sandalwood necklace.

Also, recite Mahamrityunjaya Mantra 21 times, followed by the Devi Suktam from the Rig Veda daily.

During both Navaratris i.e., in Chaitra before Rama Navami and during Durga Puja, get a Durga Saptashati recital done by a knowledgeable priest.

See link below this post.

Explorings,

I don't know if you were able to find a priest for Durga Saptashati recital. If not, the next best thing is to play a well-sung DVD of this text and listen to it. You can get many versions of this DVD online.

Here is the link for Times Music version, although personally I don't like the voice much - http://timesmusic.retailmart.com/durga-saptashati.html

You can get another DVD if you don't like this one.

The DVD should not stop in between while playing and you should stay within the range of the sound focusing your mind on the recital, without getting interrupted in between. This means you should have free time of about 3 and 1/2 hrs for this.

Make sure the recital ends with the Devi Suktam of Rig Veda, for that is the proper way to end it. If it doesn't, you can recite the Rig Vedic Devi Suktam after the DVD ends.

One thing I didn't mention in my post regarding experience of Rahu MD is that I was advised to wear yellow sapphire (perhaps set in gold) in a yellow thread when I was going through the last of my Rahu MD-Guru AD perhaps.Just prior to that I think I had suffered from jaundice.However,things got fine,though ,later that year or early next year I had an appendix operation following which I gained lot of weight and to date haven't lost it completely.

White sandalwood is for Rahu ??

The recent mysterious breakup with the girl was during Rahu-Mars-Ketu and things got worse during Rahu-Mars-Venus (Venus is my atmakaraka).
I now feel like I want to have a lot of affairs, relations with opposite sex after the experience.I wasn't like this and believed exactly the opposite but ....to get back to what I were seems like a mission now.

Yes,I have read that thread once ,sometime back and though I couldnt go through it completely but it is a very nice thread.Excellent one..I have tried chanting Hanuman Chalisa,Gayatri Mantra and few other mantras in the past on the advice of my parents and family astrologer.I noticed a great positive change in my life and quite soon like within a small period of time.The only problem is that I cant stay consistent with it as if something keeps me from visiting temples and doing these chants even at home.I have Hanuman chalisa on my cell but dont know why I just cant seem to read it ,sometimes I am lazy ,sometimes I dont feel like ..really its weird and bad but ...i dont know whats wrong :? ....not I am trying to hard to make up my mind and make it a routine.

I also tried reading Argala Stotra and wanted to make it a habit to read it everyday.
