Through hard work and spiritual practices, a person gets honor and dignity. The lazy one who puts in no efforts is like a fool who allows salt to be spilled on the wounds of his misfortunes. The idler depending only on fate, achieves nothing. - K.N.Rao ji
First of all , let me explain what "Spirituality" , "Renunciation" and "Ascticism" means .
Spirituality can refer to establishing a connection with the inner self enabling a person to discover the essence of their being; or the “deepest values and meanings by which people live.†Spiritual practices, including meditation, prayer and contemplation, are intended to develop an individual's inner life; such practices often lead to an experience of connectedness with a larger reality, yielding a more comprehensive self; with other individuals or the human community; with nature or the cosmos; or with the divine realm.Spirituality is often experienced as a source of inspiration or orientation in life. It can encompass belief in immaterial realities or experiences of the immanent or transcendent nature of the world.
The common misconception is to mix Religion and Spirituality to define each other . . Both are seperate beings , but both need the other to survive ..... Kind of like a symbiotic relationship. (symbiotic means close and often long-term interactions between different (biological) species where one needs the other to florish and also to some extent , survive . Religion is nothing with out a sense of Spirituality and Spirituality is nothing without religion as a base . You can try to have a sense of spirituality within you , but since we are creatures who we need images and tangability to believe , Religion become a powerful tool to enhance spirituality . Religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of life and the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a supernatural agency, or human beings’ relation to that which they regard as holy, sacred, spiritual, or divine. Many religions have narratives, symbols, traditions and sacred histories that are intended to give meaning to life. They tend to derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle from their ideas about the cosmos and human nature.
The word religion is sometimes used interchangeably with faith or belief system, but religion differs from private belief in that it has a public aspect. Most religions have organized behaviors, including congregations for prayer, priestly hierarchies, holy places, and/or scriptures.
Note , Islam is one religion which shuns and opposes Images ( Idols ) But still use the Kaaba ( The Kaaba is a large masonry structure roughly the shape of a cube. It is made of granite from the hills near Mecca,) as a focal point for prayer . A devout Muslim has to face east to perform a prayer .)

Renunciation literally means , to reject, refuse, throw back, decline, turn down, and choose against a established form. This needs some explaination . Our society believes in A symbiotic relationship of sorts . We are what we are as a race today purely on the basis of a Civilized society . Societies focus is mainly on how "successful and powerful " a person can become amidst that society . Society measures the Sucess of a man on the basis of the "Luxuries " he can indulge in. We have created a material world , and a materialistic person is hailed as a success in our society . ( A Materialistic person is described as a person who is markedly more concerned with material things (such as money and possessions) rather than spiritual, intellectual, or cultural values. )
Society has induced commerce, infrastructure, health care, Housing, entertainment, security, and other means of inducing a "comfortable living" because of the contribution of one and all into a financial system which it has created foritself. Society expects each living being to contribute to the system and create more value through participation . A man who does not participate is a burden on Society .
Renunciation is the act of rejecting these forms of participation to get deeper into Spirituality . It is the craving to understand the inner self more that motivates one to reject these forms of "well being" since these are forms of distraction in understanding the meaning of life .
Here the person largly withdraws from contributing and participating in society actively . He or she participates in society only to the extent of gaining the basic needs to live life. Luxuary takes a back seat and only comfort to keep the body in good stead is focused upon . The person contributes and "works" only to keep himself comfortable so that his focus can remain on the larger schemes of life .
A good example for this would be the Catholic and the Buddhist Nuns and Priests . Some Hindu sects also encourage these forms of Renunciation .

Asceticism Takes Spirituality and Renunciation to the extreme . It describes a lifestyle characterized by the aim of pursuing religious and spiritual goals using extreme measures . Some forms of Christianity (Monastic life) and the Indian religions teach that salvation and liberation involve a process of mind-body transformation affected by exercising maximum and extreme restraint with respect to actions of body, speech, and mind and food intake .The founders and earliest practitioners of these religions lived extremely austere lifestyles, refraining from sensual pleasures and the accumulation of material wealth . They believe that enjoyment of life is nothing , but recognise that spiritual and religious goals are impeded by such indulgence.
In the popular imagination, asceticism may be considered obsessive or even masochistic in nature. The naked ascetics belonging to the Digambara Sect , and the Aghori's , The Sufi Fakir's are some of the examples of Asceticism. {(A fakir or faqir ) is a Muslim Sufi ascetic in Middle East and South Asia. The Faqirs were wandering Dervishes teaching Islam and living on alms. The terms 'faqr' and faqir , in religious parameters, were first used in Islam by Prophet Muhammad. There are revelations of Quran in which this term was used. Many hadiths (quotations) in which Muhammad used terms 'faqr' and 'faqir' are very famous such as (faqr is my pride). Since Muhammad defined 'faqr' Muslim scholars and saints followed it and proud to be called 'Faqir'. 'Faqr' or 'faqir' are mostly used in Sufism or tasawwuf which is the most gallant feature of Islam.
The term has also been used to refer to Hindu and Buddhism ascetics (e.g., sadhus, gurus, swamis and yogis). These broader idiomatic usages developed primarily in Mughal era in India. There also a now a distinct caste of Faqir found in North India, descended from communities of faqirs who took up residence at Sufi shrines.}
For example, I had the Good fortune to meet Shri TarunaSagar ji . (Muni Shri Tarun Sagar Ji Maharaj is the first Digambar Saint who is popularly known as the revolutionary Saint in the jain community. he got into Jain Ascetism at the tender age of 13 years. ( Exalted Guru in Shani's Nakshatra . Shani aspected By Guru . Shani in Meena / Guru's Rashi )You can see his ways of life here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iGI-g7XH ... re=related ( Please watch the whole video / there is a write up on how he takes his food )

People who Go to Shabri Male perform Spirituality and Renunciation for a limited period of time . My Guru Swamy is a Auto Driver by profession . He believes that the world revolves around Ayappa . He works from 8 in the morning to 7 in the evening . Does not drink , smoke or gamble . He has been a Guru swamy for 27 years now ( You become a Guru Swamy after visiting Shabrimala 18 times after performing abstinence for 48 days each time .) . He is blessed with one daughter , who he says is a Gift From Ayappa . ( they got here very late . She does not look any thing like the father and the mother . She does have a angelic look on her face .
) . his Abstinence is year long , But from August onwards , the man leaves home , stays at a temple, sleeps on the bare floor, cooks his own meal, and prepares his team for the pilgrimage . The "team" start their abstinence from late november - december onwards , till january 15 th . So you can see Guru swamy is ahead of the pact right from August .
What has prompted this extreme life style ?? I have studied this Phenomenon very closely . There are two types of people who indulge in Spirituality , Renunciation and Asceticism .One , who was born to do it , and the other who is forced by the present lives circumstances to indulge or flirt with / in it . In My Guru swamy's case , Its the latter part that induced him to move towards Spirituality . Please note my use of the word spirituality . He cannot be called a Ascetic because he is very much in the midst of society , contributing to it , But yet living a austure life , working only for his wife, his Old mother, His jobless brother and his child. This is a Borderline line case as we can see .

Like I said before , There are two types of people who indulge in Spirituality , Renunciation and Asceticism .One , who was born to do it , and the other who is forced by the present lives circumstances to indulge or flirt with / in it .
You can count the number of people who were born to Do it . for example look at Adi Shankara . Shankaracharya was still a boy when he wanted to run away from home and take the Vows of Sannysa and enter a life of Renunciation . His mother naturally denied him permission to leave , thinking that her son would do nothing but Ramble around the world .
But Shankara was determined to leave and decided on a very specific course of action. He was sent into the world for a specific purpose of estblishing a sect and was born with certain Siddhis to assist him in his mission. One day when he went down to the banks of the river he used his siddhis to trick her . He created a illusory crocodile which gripped him firmly by the legs and began to drag him into the river .
Shankara then called out to his mother in mock fright as the fake crocodile tugged him down , Ma Ma save me he said , Give me permission to take Sannyasa and then I will be freed , otherwise I am doomed . You can only imagine the terror that struck the poor mother's heart , It was like a knife pushed through her chest and slowly rotated in her heart, She had no choice byut give him permission and off he went , free to complete his mission .
Such extraodinary souls are extinct today . Look at what happened to Jesus Christ 2011 years back . He merely claimed he was spreading God's words , And for that , he was nailed to death . In todays day , if Christ were to appear and say that he was the son of God , his parents would send him to a Physiatrist who would promptly evaluate that he is Schizophrenic and prescribe a strong dosage of "Prozac" . If he still persisted with his "Symptoms " he would have been institutionalised for life . Such is life today .
when one evaluates a horoscope , care should be taken to assess yoga's for Spirituality . A bad indication ( Sexual deviancy for example , or criminal tendencies ) In a horoscope can be curtailed with a strong Yoga for Spirituality . A horoscope would typically have around 700 yoga's worth considering . It is not possible for the astrologer to sieve through every yoga and determine their strengths . But it pays to inspect and analyse yogas indicating Spirituality. Such yoga's can curtail the bad influences from other bad yoga's .

To escape from the path of a materialistic centric world is not easy . It requires Guts to shun the trappings of luxury, and the 5 pillars which are firmly entrenched into our mins by our parents, relatives and society , the 5 pillars being 1. Money 2. house 3. car 4. wife 5. children ( You cant make money without a good career to back you )
Failure to achieve these 5 pillars = to you being a failure . To make matters worse , there is no set parameter or standard defined for these 5 pillars . So man is consistently and constantly trying to re-define the standard , in the mean time giving Spirituality a flying ^%&k .
No body can be blamed for this . Our parents have drilled it into our cranium , You must become a pilot and fly only a 787 dream liner for Lufthansa , buy a house in Zurich , and also in Mumbai , Drive a jaguar , marry Katerina Kaif and finally have a kid who should pass out of Yale summa cum laude , look like Hillary Duff , and sing like Mariah Carey .
God be dammed ........
It take guts to walk , turn your back against the material , society, and the wishes of all around you, and then indulge in contemplation of God . Its no joke. People will label you a "Failure " and say that you are a "underachiever " a "good for nothing lazy bum who needs to be kicked on the Butt " . So the first thing you need to walk the untrodden path is a strong Mars and strong 3 house . The upachaya houses have to be strong at all times for everything ,( Be it materialistic or Spiritualistic pursuits ) It is the strength of the Upachaya house that will dictate where we reach down a certain path.

The external factors that aid Spirituality and Renunciation ,
1. To whom you are born ( Parents might be atheist . what a waste of Good yoga's . )
2. Where you are born ( Does not help if you are born in oslo / works better if one is born in Shringeri )
3. When you are born ( not when the Hippy culture was in Full swing )
4. The proximity to a religious centre ( living near a temple helps )
5. The religion you are born into . ( I personally consider Hinduism to be the best medium to channel Spirituality and aid Renunciation )

All the planets are involve them selves to induce Spirituality , Renunciation and Asceticism.
Ravi is important because it signifies the Soul
Chandra because it is the Thinking Mind where the seed of desires are sown
Kuja because he is the man who induces courage to tread the path
Budha. You need the intelligence to decipher the scriptures
Guru, Do I need to say it ......
, the Main man who defines Spirituality
Shukra needs to switch off
Shani needs to push you into such great pains that you have no other way but to think of God
Rahu to induce a sense that every thing is a illusion
Ketu to Grant liberation and Moksha .
The Important houses are 1/5/9/8/12 ( Appart from 3/6/11 )
In my opinion for a man to turn towards God , there must be a systematic failure of all houses connected with Material gains . Like the organs of a dying man shutting down one after the other . The 6th and 8th and the 12th houses need to be very very strong . Shani , Rahu and Ketu and Kuja should be super strong and malefic in intention , kicking a man in the stomach and pushing him to the ground every time he tries to stand. He must reach a stage where one day he will scream in agony and then say " God , enough , I have had enough . Now I want you . " . That is the start of the journey towards God . There is no other way . This is the only way . The seeds of Spirituality is planted in the soul when all the dross of the Material is burnt ( Dross is a mass of solid impurities floating on a molten metal . what remains after the impurities are removed is pure Metal . Be it gold or platinum .)
Ravi is important because it signifies the Soul
Chandra because it is the Thinking Mind where the seed of desires are sown
Kuja because he is the man who induces courage to tread the path
Budha. You need the intelligence to decipher the scriptures
Guru, Do I need to say it ......
Shukra needs to switch off
Shani needs to push you into such great pains that you have no other way but to think of God
Rahu to induce a sense that every thing is a illusion
Ketu to Grant liberation and Moksha .
The Important houses are 1/5/9/8/12 ( Appart from 3/6/11 )
In my opinion for a man to turn towards God , there must be a systematic failure of all houses connected with Material gains . Like the organs of a dying man shutting down one after the other . The 6th and 8th and the 12th houses need to be very very strong . Shani , Rahu and Ketu and Kuja should be super strong and malefic in intention , kicking a man in the stomach and pushing him to the ground every time he tries to stand. He must reach a stage where one day he will scream in agony and then say " God , enough , I have had enough . Now I want you . " . That is the start of the journey towards God . There is no other way . This is the only way . The seeds of Spirituality is planted in the soul when all the dross of the Material is burnt ( Dross is a mass of solid impurities floating on a molten metal . what remains after the impurities are removed is pure Metal . Be it gold or platinum .)
Through hard work and spiritual practices, a person gets honor and dignity. The lazy one who puts in no efforts is like a fool who allows salt to be spilled on the wounds of his misfortunes. The idler depending only on fate, achieves nothing. - K.N.Rao ji
Shani is the most powerful among the planets producing the combination for Asceticism. He impels the individual to abdicate everything often without his clothes , all possessions . The asceticism induced by Shani is exteremely ardous without material support . Such individuals have ethics of their own , dwell on emptiness and communicate with God in the wilderness.
The Influence of Saturn induces spirituality and can be observed in the following combinations,
The unaspected lord of the ascendant aspecting Shani
An unaspected Saturn aspecting the ascendent lord produces the same results . ( A mutual aspect induces acute discontentment )
The lord of the sign in which the moon is placed is unaspected by any other planet but aspects Saturn
If the Moon is in the Drekkana of Kuja or Saturn and is unaspected by any planet except Shani . If the moon is also in the Navamsha of Shani the yoga becomes powerful .
One of the combinations which creates much turmoil in the life of a individual and underwhich he becomes helpless and follows the path of Renunciation arises from a combination of Shani and Guru , the Moon and the ascendent . You can see this in reality when you see Tarunasagar swamiji's chart , where Shani is in the house of Guru , Guru is exalted in Shani's Nakshatra , and Guru aspects Shani . I cannot place the lagna because of the lack of the T.O.B. . its interesting to note that he left home at the age of 13. Truely a remarkable yoga .

Let me start with a example of how a man soaked in the material , still regularly prays to God . He makes it a point to go to every possible temple when he is in India . I feel he Seeks God purely out of fear because his wealth could be lost one day . He has tasted loss , does not want a repeat performance again . The man in question owes several properties in Dubai , reaped millions , drives a lexus and generally has a rocking time . I provide the details below

First of all , there is no yoga for Spirituality to talk about . The 11th lord in the third has driven him to be a success that he is . nothing is enough for him . There is never a end to his want . the slight urge to be spiritual comes from Shani in his own house in the 5th . Note Shani is Retro . This is what spoils his definition of spirituality . He believes in god , But at the same time in Money too . That does not work does it ??? The whole chart is a waste for spiritual pursuits because no body is in the right place . Shani is spoilt by Rahu and ketu , instigated by Kuja . This is a individual who is never every going to be a sanyasi in this life time . Now you can safely assume that this will guy will go to the end of earth and resort to any means to make his money .

What is unique about this horoscope is that there are 2 planetary wars , between 3 different planets , Budha Shani and Ravi . Note the dictum. "the unaspected lord of the ascendent ( By extention a conjunction with Shani causes Spirituality and Renunciation ). Note here that Shani is exalted , though he looses the war . The money making planet . But the icing on the cake is the presence of the 4th and the 9th lord in the lagna . Note the 12th lord in the lagna ( A sure fire recipe for disillusionment in ones life . ) Note the 5th lord's aspect on the 12th . The best part is a exalted Shani's aspect on the 12th house .
But there has to be a dasha to fit the puzzle . She came in Ravi dasha to India , seeking solace no doubt . Shukra dasha must have been tough on her because of the Parivartana Kahala Yoga (Produced by: Sun , Venus) by being in Exchange of sign lords involving house 3. When this yoga occurs , the person is ,
"Occasionaly haughty and sometimes sweet in his speech. On occasions very prosperous and then driven to poverty, unhappiness and misery."
The native was a orthodox christian . It was no doubt a extreme step for her to start believing in Krishna . So who prompted that change . The answer is apparent for all to see , Its Rahu and Ketu along with Guru who made her take a U Turn .
One point I want to make clear . Guru when Debilitated or in a bad house , or aspected by a Malefic blemishes the ability of the individual to stick to his / Her religion ( The one they were born in ) . The same has to be extended here . She was born a christan , but changed her belief due to the conjunction of Ketu and the Aspect of Rahu .
Take my case . My Guru is debilitated . I was a atheist , then experimented with different religions before settling down . Dr David Frawley has clearely stated that a fallen Guru in Makara give a Individual a incomprehensible urge to get back to Vedic roots . Most foreigners visiting India and trying to understand Indian culture have a Blemished Guru in some way or the other .

Jagadguru Chandrashekarendra Saraswati Swamigal (May 20, 1894 – January 8, 1994) or the Sage of Kanchi was the 68th Jagadguru in the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetam. He is usually referred to as Paramacharya or MahaSwami.
Maha Periyavaal was born on 20 May 1894, under Anuradha star according to the Hindu calendar, into a Kannadiga Smartha Hoysala Karnataka Brahmin family in Viluppuram, South Arcot District, Tamil Nadu as Swaminatha
During the childhood of the Acharya, his father consulted an astrologer who, upon studying the boy's horoscope, is said to have been so stunned that he prostrated himself before the boy exclaiming that "One day the whole world will fall at his feet." In 1906, the 66th Acharya of Sri Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham performed the annual Chaturmasyam (a forty-day annual ritual performed by Hindu ascetics while remaining in one place), in a village near Tindivanam in Tamil Nadu. This was Swaminathan’s first exposure to the Math and its Acharya. Later, Swaminathan accompanied his father whenever he visited the Math where the Acharya was deeply impressed by the young boy.

A king or equal to a king. When setting out on a journey is greeted by bands and auspicious sounds. Has a royal umbrella and palanquins, etc. Bards recite poems in his praise. Presented gifts by eminent people. Enjoys all comforts in the company of many beautiful women.
except this (Will be subject to other ownerships of planets involved).
According to Phaladeepika, If Guru is in the 10th house ,
The native will be religious minded and will perform righteous deeds, study Gita, will be very able, will have widespread reputation and will be respected by the masses. If the lord of the 10th is strong, the native will perform high class religious sacrifices.

Will be virtuous, have faith in religion, happy and fortunate. Will possess lands, will be wealthy, will be blessed with sons and will be famous, prosperous and wise. ( assess this carefully , he was virtuous, had faith in religion , happy ?? yes he was . Fortunate ..... off course . You have to be extremely fortunate to be a matadhipati . He did possess land till the end of his life . The Math land were under him though he was the de facto owner . wealthy is a matter of interpretation . Wealth can come in many forms . Knowledge is also wealth in my opinion . All his disciples were like his children and so he indeed had many sons . prosperous with spirituality and no doubt a very wise man.

The top 10 yogas to Give class 1 Spirituality . All other factors in the Horoscope being equal ( Note stronger the yoga , greater the urge to renunciate ).
Virinchi Yoga,
Should the 5th lord, Guru, and Saturn be in a Kendra or Trine Identical with their exaltation, own , or friendly sign Virinchi Yoga is caused. ( Always count from lagna . If the Yoga reoccurs from the Moon , the Yoga becomes extremely Strong . )
A virinchi Yoga causes the Native to be intelligent, a holder of wisdom, a head of a religious sect, proficient in the Vedic ways and Knowledge, happy not to deviate from the Vedic wayof life . He will speak in pleasing words, be endowed with wealth (
) . His face will shine with the light of Satvaguna of God Hood . He will win over desire , and even Kings will fall at his feet .
Comment :
This is indeed a rare posibility . All three lords have to be placed extremely well for this Yoga to be caused. There should be no taint from Rahu, Ketu, or Kuja . These three planets can drive this individual to the extremes . ( Like Jesus Christ ) The 5th lord indicates Intelligence. Guru stands for Philantropic attitudes which is a universal religion and Saturn represents deep thinking , meditation and Renunciation . I stress once again , for spirituality to rise up as a focal point , all other yogas have to be weak . If the Moon is not the 5th lord , then Shani must aspect it or conjunct him . Ravi must be unblemished because he is the significator of the Soul . Shukra must be at his best behaviour , Kuja should be alone and not aspect these planets . Budha must be strong in order for the individual to grasp the Scriptures . Rahu and ketu should be at their best behaviour . whew ........... This is indeed a tall order .

Shrikantha Yoga,
A shrikantha Yoga occurs when the Lord of the Lagna, the Sun, and the Moon occupy A kendra or a trine in their exaltation, own, or friendly Rashi's
The native will be Magnanimous, Virtuous, a powerful devotee of lord Shiva , who will refrain from Belittling the religious beliefs of other people. Such a person will be decked with a Rudraksha rosary, His body will be whitened with holy ash and will renunce the world's pleasures .
Comment :
I feel that this Yoga can click only when Guru is in a Good condition and the Moon should be unblemished . In my Horoscope Ravi is in exaltation in the 4th, Chandra is in lagna, and the lagna lord is in his friendly Sign in a Trikona , unblemished . ( Kuja who is conjunct with Chandra is a Badaka lord ) . I Feel the 5th and the 9th lord need to be strong too . (This is why I have not mentioned the Kendras when I quoted the important houses for Spirituality . )
However,
I am Magnanimous to a point , not Virtuous in the least, a power devotee of Lord Shiva without any doubt, I never belittle any religion but draw freely from them, I do wear a Rudraksha Mala now and then ( But dont most of the time because I love to drink ) and I do smear Vibhuthi on my Body . As Far as renunciation is concerned ....... well I really dont know . The want is strong , The mind is willing , But the Body is not . It still craves for the life and the comfort It already has . I am partially renounced though , I am not married , Never will , No kids . 50 PCT of the job is done .
. these In my opinion are the 2 biggest stumbling blocks in the path of renunciation .

Saraswati Yoga
If Guru, Budha, and Shukra is in the 1st,2nd,4th,7th,10th,5th,and the 9th, and Jointly or Individually a Saraswati Yoga is caused, Provided Guru is in his exalted, Moolatrikona, own, or friendly sign ( More weightage for Exaltation ) . In short, when Shukra, Budha, and Guru are in the 2nd, a kendra or a Kona , and If Guru is strong , then the person is endowed with a Saraswati Yoga.
The individual with this Yoga will be well versed in the Scriptures, the Shastras, intelligent, and praised by all . He will be skilled as a writer, orator and a savant.
Comment :
The 2nd house is included here because it is considered the house of Classical learning . The asking rate of the Yoga is such that, it is possible that it's fairly common . Three benefics in a Kendra or a Kona is not hard to achieve. However the twist in the tale is ever present . We have to contend with placing Guru in his exaltation sign . More over , there is no mention of the Moon , who is a important Cog in the wheel . I feel That Shani should aspect Chandra for this yoga to come alive . Its not possible with out Shani's glance or conjunction, and that too having a connection to the 5th or the 9th lord / house . I am of the strong belief that even Shani's glance on Guru is enough to trigger off sprituality . There is one point I want to make clear , Guru can make you flirt with Spirituality, and he will do so in a pleasant manner , while shani will kick you in the face before shoving a book containing the scriptures under your nose . Be rest assured that after Shani has done what he has done, you will not be taking your eyes off the book in a hurry .

Shiva Yoga,
Should the 5th lord be in the 9th, the 10th lord be in the 5th and the 11th lord be in the 9th , (All can be viceversa / Aspects are accepted But the Yoga will be weak . )The resulting Combination is a Shiva Yoga,
One born with a Shiva yoga will be courageous , affluent, Virtuous, a Kingly person and possesses divine wisdom.

Strictly speaking, In my opinion , this is not a pure Yoga for spirituality , But why I included this in the list and placed it at no 4 is simple . In today's day , money can bring you closer to God . Let me explain How . A top industrialist in Mangalore, though unscrupulous in his methods of gaining wealth, is the Dharmadhikari of the oldest and most powerful temple in Mangalore. Let me quote another example , Dharma Adhikari Veerendra Heggade is a philanthropist and the hereditary administrator (Dharmadhikari) of the Dharmasthala Temple.He succeeded to the post of dharmadhikari at the age of 20, on October 24, 1968 becoming the 21st Dharmadhikari of Dharmasthala Temple dedicated to the Hindu God Shiva. Veerendra Heggade’s first major act upon becoming Dharmadhikari was to realise his father’s dream by completing the carving and installation of the 39 ft., 170 ton Bahubali statue at Dharmastala ( This needs money )In 1993, during silver jubilee celebrations of his Patthabhisheka, Dr. Shankar Dayal Sharma, the then President of India, called Veerendra Heggade Rajarshi. In 2000, the government of India awarded him the prestigious Padma Bhushan award for his services in the fields of education, religion and social welfare. .
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veerendra_Heggade
Note that this yoga relates to the house of prosperity too. The native will be engaged in Good karma by the force of his fortune . Philanthropy can also bring you closer to God . Divine intelligence emanates from the placement of the 5th and the 11th lords in the 9th . Money is used Judiciously for the good of others. The 9th lord in the 5th is supreme for the Bhagya lord and the wisdom and the Karma's achieved is spiritual and Godly .
Need less to say , Shani should aspect the Moon or Guru . Or the 5th and the 9th lord or the 5th and the 9th house .
Should the 5th lord be in the 9th, the 10th lord be in the 5th and the 11th lord be in the 9th , (All can be viceversa / Aspects are accepted But the Yoga will be weak . )The resulting Combination is a Shiva Yoga,

In 2000, the government of India awarded him the prestigious Padma Bhushan award for his services in the fields of education, religion and social welfare. .

Note that this yoga relates to the house of prosperity too. The native will be engaged in Good karma by the force of his fortune . Philanthropy can also bring you closer to God . Divine intelligence emanates from the placement of the 5th and the 11th lords in the 9th . Money is used Judiciously for the good of others. The 9th lord in the 5th is supreme for the Bhagya lord and the wisdom and the Karma's achieved is spiritual and Godly .
Need less to say , Shani should aspect the Moon or Guru . Or the 5th and the 9th lord or the 5th and the 9th house .
Through hard work and spiritual practices, a person gets honor and dignity. The lazy one who puts in no efforts is like a fool who allows salt to be spilled on the wounds of his misfortunes. The idler depending only on fate, achieves nothing. - K.N.Rao ji

Hi
Nice article and one more thing that we should also consider that benefics if placed in the 3rd and 6th house would make the native go towards the spirituality and if the same house are having malefics then he would use all his force and be at the back of money.
In the same way the 3rd and 6th from Aurdha lagna should be seen. AL is an illusion hence it is very important to check as to how the society feels about this native. Because based on this only (the illusion) other would fall behind the person as they feel that either this native has money or no money. hence Illusion also pays a very important role. Based on this illusion itself we get loans from the banks even though from the actual point of view we do not that much capacity to pay the loans
In my case if you see the 5th is house of knowledge and it is Dhanus and the lord Jupiter is placed in the 12th house which is the house of moksha and meditation. I think around the time when I was 15 years old I suddenly changed and started thinking about god and his existence. Prior to that I used to care a damn by the word god. I used to ask myself who is this person called god and where is he. Till the age of 15 years I was the most dreaded person in my school. I never hesitated to kick people on their butts and doing the mistake by myself I used to blame others. Now after the age of 15 years till now (44 years) there is total change in my life.I started praying god and do meditation and am happy may not be from material point of view but yes from spiritual point of view. My friends say that whatever I say would become true hence they are scared to talk to me.
My D-9 also have Jupiter which made me lurk into astrology without any guru at my disposal to enlighten me.
The aspect of Mars, rahu has made me turn violent. I used to never care for my father and we used to have lot of fights and the extent of using hands also. But now I feel how important is the word father is after the death of my father.
The reason why I am writing this is that we are destined and we have to live with it. Whether we like it or not. But always ensure that praying to god with whatever way you can would definitely change your life for good. After 40 years I started feeling happy and my spirituality even increased more.
Jupiter placed in the 12th house is the best combination and that too exalted. I gives me a very good sleep which I never experienced in my life till the age of around 37-40 years. . I was scared to sleep and used to get up in the midnights. I used to cry sleeping in the bed itself.The combinations in my chart tells you all why These are all our karmas which we have to reap in this life.That was the terrible life which I had to undergo till the age of 40 years.

Pravrajya Yogas
If Chandra is conjunct with Shani,
If chandra is in the Navamsha of Kuja or Shani and is aspected By Shani
If Chandra's Dispositor is neither conjunct with any planet nor aspected by any planet except Shani
Then the native will renunciate the material and seek solace in the spiritual world.
Comment :
In olden times, Sanyasis had more command and respect than the kings. In the days of yore, a Pravrajya yoga was equivalent to a first class Raja Yoga. This yoga gave a individual the power to understand the ultimate truth and also gave him the power to guide the others to the right path. The urge to know the ultimate truth emanates from Lord Shani when he afflicts when he afflicts the Moon. Please note that If guru, Chandra and the Lagna are aspected by Shani and Guru occupies the 9th house, all other factors being equal the person will go on to be a founder of a new system of Philosophy. When Shani occupies the 9th house and is not aspected by any other planet , and Shani is strong , owning Good houses , He will . all other factors being equal , join a holy order.
Another point I want to mention. The planetary strength decides the Sect of renunciation the individual will align with . It could range from a satvic sect like ISCON , to a sect of Naga Baba's ....... or even the Agoras . Evaluate the strength of the planet before you pronounce a verdict .
Note this point carefully : Ravi, Shani , Rahu , Ketu , and the 12th lord,...... all the usual suspects are seperative planets . When they influence the 2nd(Family) the 4th lord (Home) and the 12th ( The end of everything ) the person has a good chance to say bye to the material and start a journey to the Spiritual.

Vipareeta jñÄna Yoga
Vipareeta jñÄna Yoga occurs If Guru is placed in his exaltation Sign along with Chandra, Shani is in Vrishabha Rashi, Ravi and Budha are in the 9th house And Kuja is in his own house in the 12th house.
The native will be well versed in the scriptures, is a good astrologer, will always speak about God, will redefine the meaning of classical texts and write many books on the subject connected with the divine. he Will always meditate and contemplate on the divine .
Comment :
I First heard of this yoga in 2007 Sept. This combination was given to me by my erst-while Guru Shri Jagdish Acharya. The sheer complexity of the combination makes it nigh impossible to occur. Its as if someone with a fertile imagination sat up one night and conjured it up . However he convinced me that he has actually seen this combination in a horoscope and the effects were well exhibited. ( I took that story with a bucket full of salt )
The yoga looks delicious on the face of it , but the improbability of it occuring has prompted me to place it down the list. The lagna has to be only Vrishabha because Kuja get's the 12th house only when the lagna is vrishabha . There is another obstacle, a budha adithya yoga must occur in the 9th house. This clearly indicates that the lagna has to be Vrishabha. Straight away you can see how rare this yoga is going to be . the sheer beauty of the yoga lies in the fact that Shani in the lagna aspects Guru and chandra . Guru who owns the 11th and the 8th ( 11th is the house of Jyotishya and the 8th is the recitation of Mantras ) sits in the 3rd house of writing and communication. This guru aspects the 4th lord Ravi and the 2nd and the 5th lord Budha ( 2nd is the house of classical and traditional learning ). Kuja the 12th lord of renunciation aspects Chandra and Shani . Whats more, Shani sits in the lagna and aspects the 10th house of Karma. A beautiful combination , In fact a dream combination . I have dwelt on this yoga for long, But have never come across it ever. Its almost as if someone has come up with a dream combination to aid Spirituality .
Lord Shani moved into Vrishabha on the 29th of April 1971 and stayed there till june 10th 1973 . In the Meanwhile Guru was in Makara . So this combination was not possible to achieve in the seventies. The next time Shani moved to Vrishabha was on june 7th 2000 Guru was in Vrishabha then . The closest combination I could get was on the 12th of july 2002 . But this is no where close to the yoga described above . This goes to show that if the combination does occur then surely we are looking at another divine avatar in our midst . Only a exalted soul can be born with the above combination. And definitely not in my lifetime .
Another point, If the Yoga does occur, then you can be sure that the individual might not be able to sustain marriage . Kuja who is the 12th lord sits in the 12th and aspects the 7th . The combination demands that Kuja be made powerfull as a Dustana lord to rob the individual of his peace of mind and marriage . A bad Kuja Dosha occurs here. Shani's aspect on the 7th cannot be good . So my point is correct , Marriage and children are a big stumbling block for renunciation . This combination means that only a divine soul can have it , and that divine soul will have to do with out marriage .
The existance of Such complex yogas just go to show how difficult it is to renounce the material world .
( The word vipareeta is derived as vi+pari+ita. The word " ita " means " gone, returned, obtained " . The word " anita " (unobtained) and " udita " (risen, used for sunrise etc,
literally means well-returned) come from it. The prefix " pari " means " fully or around " . The word " paridhi " (circumference) comes from it. The word " pareeta "
(pari+ita) means " gone around " .
The prefix " vi " is a versatile one with many shades of meaning. The word " vipareeta " means " specially gone around " and it means " reversed " . It is used in many meanings today
(including " extreme " ), but the original meaning was " reversed " or " contrary " .
So vipareeta yogas show struggle and a sudden reversal. They can also great success and again a reversal. They need not always be " undesirable " . But they will always come with
some kind of reversal.

Satvika Prakriti Yoga
This yoga occurs when Budha is conjunct with the Benefic 3rd lord, or is aspected by a benefic 3rd lord. Budha should own good houses and should be placed well .
Comment :
Sounds simple enough, might be easy to find the combination but the rider to the yoga ( budha should own good houses ) makes it tough to find . The 3rd lord when a benefic always leads one to think with a pious mind without any evil thoughts for any one . Budha is the planet who is the significator for discrimination when conjunct or aspected by a benefic will never go to the path of mischief . If the benefic and Budha are strong, then the yoga gains depth .
Why I have included this simple yoga is that, a Satvik life is most important for Spirituality. Satvik food and deeds go a long way to enhance the spiritual experience. Remember, This yoga need to be fueled by other yoga's which promote Renunciation. Having this yoga as a stand alone is of no use to anyone .

Dharmadhyaksha Yoga,
1.Should Guru or shukra be in exaltation Vargas or benefic Vargas, or should the 9th lord by associated with or aspected by the benefics then the yoga formed is called Dharmadhyaksha yoga.
2. If Guru in the 9th is aspected by Ravi and Shani, or If guru placed in the 9th is aspected by Chandra and Shani ...... provided Ravi and Chandra should not be conjoined with Shani , rather he cast his 3rd aspect on Guru or be in a Trikona to Guru the the same yoga occurs
The native will be the head of some sect, religious order or be a authority on religious subjects. The person will be abound with moral excellence and be wise and be in possession of many villages.
Comment :
The yoga is very clear, The moon should not be conjunct with Shani, reason being that the combination would induce a tendency to renounce the material . This is a quazi spiritual and a materialistic yoga . The man possesses money , and power , but is connected with the Divine at the same time . This is a pure yoga for the Spiritual with materialistic inclinations . These yoga's can be seen in Big business men who have a leaning toward being the Chairman or president of a religious institution. What I am apprehensive about is how much of spirituality can be inbibed once you gain prominence as a religious head . The politician is always waiting to suck on your small toe for favours . I feel its a egoistic trip and once you are on that trip, God is forgotten.
