॥ अथ श्री बगृ ुसहंहता सतंान उऩाम खडं प्रा० ॥ ॥ Shri Bhrigu Samhita Children Remedies Volume ॥

Introduction:

age Bhrigu is considered as the father of Hindu Astrology. Different stories abound as

regards Maharshi Bhrigu. Brahma was entrusted with the task of creation of the

world and to assist him, he wished to have a person and thus was born Bhrigu and so

called as Manasa-Putra (born out of the mind) of Brahma. It is stated that Bhrigu was one of

the seven great sages popularly referred to as Saptarshis. The names of Saptarshis given in

ancient Hindu texts vastly differ. But the name of Bhrigu finds a place in Krishna Yajur

Veda Sandhya Vandana Mantra as also in Mantra Shastra. We also find a reference to Sage

Bhrigu in the Vayu Purana where he is shown present during the great Yagna of Daksha

Prajapati. In Bhagavad Gita Lord Krishna refers to Sage Bhrigu by saying “among the rishis, I

am Bhrigu.” It is mentioned in Rig Veda that Bhrigu was the first person to acquire Agni

while assisting Brahma in the creation of the world. The meaning of the word “Bhrigu”

itself is “radiant”.

S

It is believed that Bhrigu was the first compiler of predictive astrology and also the

author of Bhrigu Samhita, the astrological classic written during the Vedic Period, Treta

Yuga most probably around 3000 BC.

He had two wives Khyati and Pulauma. His son Shukra (Venus) was the Guru of

demons. Shukra was very dear to the sage and we find that the compilations appear as

conversation between Sage Bhrigu and Shukra.

It is interesting to read stories involving the sage. Readers can find many stories

through Internet sites. But we must know how the monumental work of Bhrigu Samhita

came into existence.

On the bank of the now nonexistent river Saraswati, many great rishis gathered to

conduct a Maha Yagna. Immediately after four years of creation of the world and its human

beings, the supreme powers realized that the human species were faced with many problems

and were in deep pain and suffering. To alleviate the sufferings it was decided to conduct the

Yagna. At that time Narad Muni who was present there raised a question as who would be

the Master or Head for the conduct of the Yagna. All the rishis were of the opinion that the

Trimurthis viz. Brahma, Vishnu and Siva are the only right persons for the task. But Narad

said not all three can be the head; only one out of the three can take the lead. So the task was

entrusted to Bhrigu to select the one out of three to be the head for the yagna.

In the manuscript that is available with us there are two pictures which are reproduced

below in this document. The first one shows the congregation of rishis along with Bhrigu

ready to depart for testing the 3 Lords and selecting the right person among the three. The

second picture is that of Bhrigu hitting Lord Vishnu on his chest. Now let us go on with the

story.

Bhrighu first went to Brahmalok disguising himself as a Brahman. At that time Brahma

was busy writing Vedas and did not pay any attention to the visitor who stood in front of

him. Bhrigu got infuriated and thought that when he cannot see a person just standing in

front of him, how he is going to realize the problems of the mankind. So he cursed Brahma

saying that he is unfit to be the creator of the world and that he will not be worshipped in

this world. Immediately Brahma realized his folly and asked forgiveness from the rishi

saying that he is the creator and if he be not allowed to do the creation work, the world will

come to a zero. Bhrigu realized that he has infact been a little harsh on Brahma and modified

his curse saying that he will be worshipped only in one place on the earth and it will be at

Pushkar.

Next Bhrigu went to Kailash to see Lord Shiva and find out if he is capable of

undertaking the task of performing the Yagna for the well being of the humanity. When he

reached Shiv Loka, he was stopped by Nandi Deva guarding the gates of Kailash saying that

Lord and Goddess are sporting fun at that time and no one can see him now. In spite of

Bhrigu telling Nandi deva that his work is urgent, he was adamant and did not permit

Bhrigu to enter inside and also did not accept Bhrigu‟s request to carry the message to Lord

Shiva. At this Bhrigu got annoyed and cursed Shiva that no one will ever worship you in

this world. After this Lord Shiva realized what happened but it was late as the curse had

already been given. Lord Shiva requested Bhrigu to forgive him and said that it was all due

to ignorance. Then Bhrigu realizing that his curse has indeed been a harsh one, modified it

saying that as it cannot be taken back, you will be worshipped in the form of Linga and not

in his original form.

Now two of the Tridevs were unfit to lead the Yagna and so with the hope that Lord

Vishnu will live up to his expectations, he set upon his journey to Vaikunt, the abode of Lord

Vishnu. To test Him he entered Vaikunt without the Lord‟s permission and saw that Lord

was resting at that time with Lakshmi seated beside him. There was no reaction from the

Lord which infuriated the rishi and he kicked Lord Vishnu on the chest (Look at the second

picture). That strike by the Maharshi on Lord‟s chest left a foot print there and is known till

date as “Shri Vats”. Lord Vishnu got up after the hit and realized what happened. On

realizing that the Maharshi had hit him with his foot, he asked him, “Maharshi, are you hurt

in your feet? My chest is strong but your foot is not so strong.” Hearing these words the Rishi was

moved and at once he was pleased and decided that Lord Vishnu is the right person to be

that Master for the Yagna. But the reaction of Goddess Lakshmi was quite different. She could

not bear the disrespect shown to her husband that too in front of her. So she cursed the

maharshi that henceforth she will never visit Brahmins and they will all live without wealth.

On hearing this curse, Maharshi told his reason of his visit to Vaikunt and Lakshmi realized

that since the Rishi had come with a good intention, she said that the curse given will

become null and void and the Brahmins will be liberated if they worship Lord Vishnu.

It is after this incident that Maharshi Bhrigu set upon writing the famous book of

astrology “Bhrigu Samhita” with the blessings of Lord Ganesha and Mata Saraswati. Maharshi

collected nearly 5 million horoscopes and wrote predictions for their full life.

During foreign invasions of India by Muslim warriors from the north west in the 12th

and 13th centuries, the invaders captured these prime assets of the Brahmins (as they were in

their custody). The destruction of Nalanda University library destroyed thousands of

horoscopes compiled by the Maharshi. Only a small percentage of the monumental work

remained and is now scattered with the Brahmin community in various parts of India. It is

believed that 45 million charts can be drawn if we have all the compilations of the Maharshi.

Now coming to this part of the translation, we have in our possession the following

manuscripts of Bhrigu Samhita:

बगृ ुसहंहता सतंान उऩाम खडं (Bhrigu Samhita – Children Upaya Volume)

Which we present by way of translation to the Astrological community and we hope it will

be received well by the readers. We also wish to place our sincere thanks to the provider of

the manuscript Mr. Sreeram Srinivas who passed a scanned version to the publisher of

Saptarishis Astrology way back in 2006 promising that he would initiate the translation

project via his contacts but due to professional commitments he was unable to do. This

manuscript seems to be a scanned version of a printed copy done in Meerut city and

translated in hindi from Sanskrit. The name of the Meerut Pandit is not clear in the

available text. We salute him for bringing this out.

SA Team has relied mainly on the Sanskrit portion and at times the original

translation into hindi was found to be not so accurate in our humble opinion but translations

are one area where scholars easily differ is to be borne in mind. We collected around 7

translators from the SA Team way back in early 2011 & started group translation. We wish

to thank the translators as well as our Sanskrit Editor Mr. Chandrashekhar Sharma, Project

Head Mr. Yenbeeyes who were kind enough to devote their valuable time and energy in

bringing out this document in the present form. Finally we wish to thank the patience of

each team member involved who were humble enough to go through various drafts, accept

that the process of translation into a foreign language is not an easy task. Readers are

provided with Sanskrit shlokas so that they can double check the translations before

prescribing remedies.

Method To See Results Using Children Upaaya Volume

t is appropriate for the person who desires to show the birth chart to come with a pure

heart and mind (शदु्ध चित्त) and offers flowers, sweets and fees/reward to the astrologer

(who is being shown the birth chart). The (three step) method to examine the birth

chart, which is brought by a person to know about his child, using this text, is thus:

1. From the birth time, find the Ghatis1 leaving out the palas.

2. The house for children is the 5th, so add 5 to the Ghatis obtained in Step 1 and save the

result.

3. Now use the Chakra drawn on next page. (NOTE: The Chakra is like a table and has

several numbers in it, each number in a separate rectangle). Ask the person who has

come to show the birth chart and is desirous to learn about his child, to place his finger

on the Chakra. Add the number that he places his finger on, to the result obtained in 1 A Ghati is a measure of time equal to 24 minutes. Another measure of time, Pala is equal to 24 seconds. The

birth time, also referred to as Ishta Ghati (इष्ट घडी) is specified in Ghatis and Palas that have elapsed since

sunrise. For example, say the sunrise on a particular day is at 6:30:00 AM. The Ishta Ghati of a person born

at 7:44:00 AM on this day is 3 Ghatis and 2 Palas (74 minutes from sunrise).

Step 2 above to obtain the final number or sum. Read both sides of the Page/Card

(सपुा) bearing the same number as the final number or sum. The card will have the

true story, if the Lord wishes, of the person who has the question.

If someone doesn‟t have a birth chart, then use the time that the person arrives to make the

Prashna Chart (Chart drawn with the time of query as the time of birth) and use the above

method with this Prashna Chart, and if the Lord wishes, the result will be good.

with an example, how to apply the method described above.

Please see the birth chart that a person has brought to know about his child. The birth time is

38 ghatis and 10 pala.

1. Select 38 (leaving the palas)

2. Add 5 (for the fifth house) to 38: the result is 43.

3. Now if this person puts his finger on 25 in the Chakra, add 25 to 43 to get the final

number or sum of 68. Please read both sides of Page/Card bearing the number 68. This

is the story of the person who has the question.

Note: वणृव्याधी - this particular word is not clear in the original document. Editor feels it can

be व्रणव्याधी. Translator‟s Note: This page and the following pages seem to be the Page/Card (s) referred above

under the heading “Method to see results…. It appears that the minimum sum can be 7, since there is no

Page/Card for the numbers 5 and 6. However, the sum can also be 5 or 62. Since there is no

Page/Card corresponding to the sum of 5 or 6, it can be interpreted that such natives do not have

children related suffering OR that there is no remedy for such natives.

Translation of Page No. 7:

Shri Bhruguji says, „O Shukra, the planets in this native‟s birth chart are excellent. He is

truthful, has deep spiritual knowledge (ऩयभाथी), (Editor: It could also mean very wealthy)

helps other people sincerely, is liked by everyone and has faith in God and Brahmins3. He

will gain respect and fame, has a developed intellect through education, will make his clan

grow in stature, is handsome and is devoted disciple of his guru. He will think about new

things and will be deeply attached to one of his friends and his mind/desire/concentration

becomes weak. He will have medium gains, but whenever there are big occasions that

involve large expenses, they will all be happily accomplished. Once there will be major

accident, disturbance or trouble, from which he shall recover, as if getting another birth

(Addition by Editor: revival of his fortune or health. Perhaps it is said that “there will be a

major accident from which he shall recover as if getting another birth”, then one will live the

complete life. There will be worries on account of family members; there will be opposition

and a risk to life. Recitation of Mantras and medicine will provide relief. There will be marks

on account of ulcer or due to wounds. This person will accumulate wealth in his youth; he

will gain prestige and will be very fortunate. His wife will be distressed and will have secret

worries (Addition by Editor: Abortion is also talked about – अल्पगबोिखडंत्), will be worried

2 The Ghatis can be zero for those born soon after sunrise and such a native can select the number 0 (zero) in the Chakra.

In such a case the final number will be 5. Similarly, it can be found out that the final number can be 6 in two cases: a

person whose birth time ghati is 1 and he selects 0 in the Chakra OR if the birth time ghati is 0 and he selects 1 in the

Chakra. 3

The class of men who are the repositories and communicators of sacred knowledge

on account of progeny. He will not have a son and if he has one then he will either not be

long lived or will desert his parents and leave them wandering. O Shukra, this person will

have all happiness, but he will be devoid of any happiness on account of children‟.

some texts. So this could be the meaning. That is six axes to be donated

peachicks of a peacock. Seeing its dead children, the peacock cursed the Chief to suffer

what type of donation can such a sin of the past lives be removed, so that this person can

obtain happiness on account of sons.

Shri Bhruguji said, „O Son, the native has to first make a golden plate from two gold coins5,

make a picture of a peacock using red sandalwood paste, chant Gayatri mantra, and donate the

plate and 6 axes to a learned Brahmin. On doing so, one will definitely enjoy happiness on

account of sons‟.

Shri Bhriguji says, „O Shukra, listen to story of this native‟.

„His birth chart is very good and the benefic planets will give good results in their own

dasha. (Editor‟s comments: I think this means he gets good results in planets that are

functionally benefic.) It is advisable to propitiate cruel and malefic planets due to which

there will be good fortune and desires will be fulfilled, (but on account of several cruel and

5 This has to be suitably modified for the modern ages

malefic planets), there will only be partial fulfillment. (Editor‟s comments: I think what is

said is that even if the malefics are not propitiated; he shall get half the results in a good

dasha.) The native will be intelligent, will weigh carefully others speech, will be able to

distinguish between truth and falsehood, is to be patient and even if not educated will gain

more prestige than those who are educated. He will be married between the ages of 12 and 16.

Wealth obtained from father.

Translator‟s Note: The meaning of word तात is taken as father. There are other meanings such as

son, thus etc, which did not seem relevant here) will be spent for auspicious works. He will have good

fortune between the years 17 and 30 and will gain prestige. If there is any pain or exhaustion in the

body, it can be treated by medicine. There will be opposition from enemies. He will suffer for a short

time two times and will live for 72 years. There will be worries on account of loss of house

Translator‟s Note: The text talks of छत्रचििंता, which I have interpreted to mean lack of shelter, since

छत्र means umbrella, shelter etc. The native may come across secret wealth sometime. His wife will

conceive, but the child will be short-lived and will cause suffering for mother and father’.

„O Shukra, this native will enjoy all kinds of comforts on earth, but he will not have any

happiness on account of his children‟.

Editor‟s Comments: I find reference to 8th and 16th year together with reference to studies at

the beginning of education and end of education at the end of the period. Then I find talks of

marriage about the 17th year of age. Then we get the reference to 30 years coupled with

increase in fortune. So getting married between 12 to 16th is not apparent in the original

Sanskrit text, to me. Kindly check the Sanskrit translation. There is no doubt that the

Sanskrit used is not always correct, but then what we have is the print copy of a text.

Shri Shukraji says, „On account of what sin this native does not have children. Please tell me

about his past life‟.

Shri Bhriguji says, „This native was born in a line of thakur (ठाकुर) and he had lots of

elephants, horses and villages and was very wealthy. His elder brother died leaving his wife

and one son behind. While his sister in law devoted her time to in offering prayers to God in

temples, he became greedy and killed his brother‟s son on account of a dispute on the

division of property. His sister in law cursed him in the temple for many births‟.

Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, please tell me, by chanting of which mantras and by making

what type of donation can this curse of the past lives be destroyed, so that this person can

obtain happiness on account of sons‟.

Shri Bhriguji said, „O Sun, such a native should have a gold vessel made using seven silver

coins (टिंक), on this make a picture of a male using sandalwood paste, and after taking a bath

in water from the Ganges river, chant Gayatri Mantra 50,000 times, as also Santan Gopal

Mantra several times with devotion, and this will result in cancellation of the curse. ‟.

Shri Bhriguji says, „O Son, this native is very hard working and strong, fortunate, will be

engaged in good activities and obtain a high status by his hard work. However, on account of

cruel and malefic planets due to past sins (Editor‟s comments: due to this, he will be

disturbed as the cruel planets render other planets weak.) he will have secret worries, he will

be confused and may remain fickle. By propitiating the benefic planets and by large

donations or donation of lands (which are also called Mahadana), his hearts desires will be

fulfilled, his worries will be eliminated, he will progress in his education, will maintain

affection with friends, use his father‟s wealth for good activities, his wife will be from a good

family, but he will not have happiness on account of children. O Shukra, this native will

manage big engagements, will solve a lot of problems for people, will be kind, loving and

merciful, will not wish ill of anyone and instead will wish well for everyone. On account of

sins of the previous birth, he cannot even dream of children related happiness and there is no

remedy for him‟.

Shri Shukraji says, „O Father, please describe what has this native done [in his previous

birth] that he sees all happiness except children related happiness‟.

Shri Bhriguji says, „O Shukra, in one of his earlier births, this native was a trader/merchant.

He was very wealthy and used to sell food grains. Once there was a big famine and several

poor people used to wander in search of food grains. During this time a Brahmin child came

to his shop and requested food grains from him. The trader/merchant became angry and

pushed them and in doing so, the Brahmin child lost his life. Seeing his son dead, the father

gave a severe curse to the trader/merchant. Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, please tell me,

what efforts should this native do so that curse of the past lives be destroyed, what type of

donation should be made, what types of prayers should be offered which mantras should be

chanted, so that this native can obtain happiness on account of sons‟.

Shri Bhriguji said, „O Shukra, make a golden plate from 8 coins, make a picture of the

Brahmin son using red sandalwood paste, place that in a copper vessel containing ghee, take

a vow and donate it to a well educated excellent Brahmin, have Gayatri mantras chanted,

then children will be obtained‟.

„This native is highly educated, is clever, chants mantras, has incisive intellect, wins over his

enemies, is fortunate, will be happy, is modest, is naïve and doesn‟t cheat or deceive people,

will obtain favors from king, is handsome and virtuous, will wear good clothes and

have worries on account of children. It will be difficult to have children and if there are any

children, they will cause suffering to the parents. This native will have all happiness but

there will be no happiness on account of children‟.

Shri Shukraji prayerfully requested his father, „In the past life, what sins has this native

committed, which have destroyed any possibility for children related happiness‟.

Bhriguji said, „O Shukra, in one of his previous birth, this native was a Kshatriya and he was

an intelligent and wealthy king or minister. He once went on a hunt to the forest and from a

distance, he saw a deer. He shot an arrow at the deer: the deer escaped, and his arrow hit and

killed the disciple of a Sadhu (renunciate), who was passing by with the disciple. On seeing

his disciple dead, the Sadhu was full of grief and he cursed the Kshatriya that he would suffer

children related sorrow for the next 3 births.

Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, please tell me, by offering what type of donation and by

chanting of which mantras can the curse of past life given by the Sadhu be destroyed and this

person can obtain happiness on account of sons‟.

Shri Bhriguji said, „This native can obtain child related happiness by making a gold plate

from two gold coins, on which should be drawn a child using red sandalwood paste. He

should then first take bath with water from the Ganges, take a vow and by performing

appropriate ritual, donate the plate along with clothes and ornaments. On doing so, he will

definitely obtain children‟.

Shri Bhriguji says, „This native is fortunate, handsome, follows his father‟s advice, virtuous,

modest, will have earthly comforts, will be an expert in sexual arts, thinks carefully about

everything, have affection for friends, has brothers and sisters with whom later there will be

enmity, will gain from land, there will be secret worries, will take particularly devoted to a

person, will experience sadness and once his life will be saved and he will get a new life. He

will fall in love with another lady. (Editor‟s comments: Also his having 2 wives is told). He

will not have a lot of education, but whatever he has will be sufficient for his needs. He will

be satisfied with what he has, he may take on debt, he may have worries on account of lack

of shelter (छत्रहितंा), (Editor‟s comments: There is no reference to losing elders) will have

arguments with his enemies, he will have diseases, he will do upayas for sufferings on

account of ancestors, and his wife will make a lot of efforts to obtain children, (Editor‟s

comments: His wife shall be specially troubled) but due to sins of previous birth, he will

have difficulty in obtaining children.

Editor‟s Notes: I think, not having progeny is being talked about by saying he shall not have

happiness of progeny.

It is also said that his wife shall be especially unhappy due to not having progeny.

Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, what sins has this native committed in his previous birth, that

he and his wife do not have children related happiness‟.

Then Shri Bhriguji said, „Listen, O Son. I will narrate a story about one of his previous

births. He was a trader/merchant and in his house stayed a snake and the snake‟s two

children. This trader was very rich. One day, to protect his house, he killed the snake‟s two

children using sticks. Seeing his two dead children, the snake cursed the trader that he

would suffer on account of children for 7 births.

Then Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, by offering what type of donation, by performing which

rituals and by chanting of which mantras will the curse of this native‟s past life be destroyed

and this person can obtain happiness on account of sons‟.

Then Shri Bhriguji said, „The native should make a golden plate using 3 coins, using red

sandalwood draw pictures of two snakes on this plate, and donate this plate along with

clothes, ornaments and grains with six types of tastes. In doing so, his curse will be

destroyed and he will have children who will live.

Editors Comments: It also talks about having to inscribe the KambIja “क्लीं” in the center of

the plate on which the golden replicas are made and having to recite Gayatri mantras with

sankalpa.

Shri Bhriguji tells to Shri Shukraji, „O Son, I will narrate this native‟s live story, so listen

carefully‟.

„This native will be fortunate, generous, will be happy and ever enthusiastic, will have good

son, who will get destroyed, will gain prestige, will be virtuous, will not be very educated;

however, he will be very intelligent. He may develop some secret worries at any time. His

wife will be fortunate, clever and from a good family. The native will be loving and caring

and will have a pure heart. At some time, he will face obstacles which will result in a loss.

He may have a diabetes type of disease due to which there will be loss of virility, but this can

be cured by medicine. There will be suffering on account of ancestors, his mother will

propitiate gods to obtain children, (Editor‟s comments: I think “garbhaalpaMca khaMdata”

गब िअल्पिंखडंत् means abortions or premature delivery resulting in loss of the child.) but he

will not have children and if he has, he will have suffering on account of them. Even when

child is conceived, it will be aborted (Editors Comments: “Vandhya” is a woman who is

incapable of having progeny.) and this may happen many times. All his life, he will have

gains but he cannot see child related happiness even in his dreams. In his previous birth, this

native has committed many grievous sins‟.

Chandrashekhar‟s comment: I think “भहत्प्राहप्तभहोत्साहो राबप्रीहतहदनहेदन े ग्रहकष्टशयीयिे यिेनबं्याहधयक्तम् काहस्मन्कारेभहत्राब ं बाग्मवहृिनसशंम् उच्चऩदवीिप्राप्नोहत प्रहसिोधनेरुोकभा व्रणव्याहधशयीयिे हिन्हदहेस्यदृष्टम् भासवेषसेखुपं्राहप्त राबो बवहत नान्यथूा शाऩाथनंऩतु्रतंात ऩवू िऩाऩभहानकं सव िऐश्वम िप्राप्नोहत सतु्सखुस्वप्नदंृष्टम् ॥“ has not been translated here. This translates as he will

have great wealth, his profits shall grow daily and he would be enthusiastic. Due to the effect

of planets he shall have diseases of blood and loose motions (or even disease where he loses

blood that is bleeding piles). At some point in time his fortune will increase, he will get

higher degree of education, shall be famous for his cattle and there would be some marks due

to abscess or wounds on his body. He would happy after 30 years of age however on account

of curse (of previous life) due to great sins, he shall not have progeny. Though having great

wealth he will not have progeny even in his dreams.

telling you. In a previous birth, this native was born in the Shudra caste. He was a fisherman

and he used to catch fishes and other creatures living in water, bring them to the town and

sell them. He caused the death of creatures living in water and earned a lot of money from it. On

account of these sins, he is deprived of children related happiness.

Shri Shukraji said, „O Father, please tell me, by offering what type of donation, by what type

of good deeds and by chanting of which mantras such grievous sins will be resolved and this

native‟s lineage will progress.

Shri Bhriguji said, „O Son, he should obtain a large amount of food grains and get them

grounded into flour. He should then make one lac pills with this flour with the name of Lord

Ram on them. Then at Haridwar or any other place where Ganges flows or at a pond at a

religious pilgrimage, where there are a lot of fishes, he should release each pill in the pond or

river while chanting the name of Lord Ram, feeding the fish. He should feed Brahmins and

offer them gifts in gold and offer them sweetmeats. Then he will have children who will live

dental problems and problems related to lungs (Editor‟s comments: means purging or loose

efforts. There is a possibility of having brothers and sisters from age 7 or 8 until 12 or 16. He

will use his fathers‟ wealth for auspicious works, there is a possibility of good education, he

will get married and his wife shall love him, and he will have deep affection for a close

friend. Any possibility of a child is destroyed. This native and his wife will always think

about having children and will make a lot of efforts. He will have gains and income, between

21-30 years; he will initiate new business, will obtain a high post, obtain praise and glory and

gain prestige. He will have a painful disease, which will be cured by medicine. He will gain

from earth, secret wealth; will live long life of more than 70 years. O Shukra, he will see all

happiness except children related happiness on account of sins of previous birth‟. (Editor‟s

comment: I think it is said that the prediction of Bhrigu shall not go in vain)
