It seems Narendra Giri has chastised his disciple Anand Giri for maintaining family relations even after taking sanyas and also for misappropriating the funds of Hanuman temple. An adamant Anand Giri was expelled from the Akhada but was later taken back on written apology and a video to that effect. Yesterday, the guru was found hanging to the ceiling fan in his room, with doors bolted from inside.
Now the questions are - Why a renunciate of many years standing should commit suicide which is considered as a heinous sin in Hindu dharma? Suicide of a religious leader that too an elderly monk is unthinkable because for a saint, both life and death are the same. What has happened behind the doors?
Let us take the help of Astrology.
Just a few days back, Jupiter became retro and landed in Makara. Makara indicates India, Jupiter indicates religious leaders, he meets retro Saturn in Makara and becomes debilitated - all these factors precipitated this sad event.
We dont have any details, either of the guru or of the disciple. So, let us take the help of prasna.
Prasna time: 21 September 2021; 9.42 AM; Hyderabad; India;It is Tula Lagna, with lagna lord Venus. So, the lagna has inherent strength ruling out suicide. However, Lagna is compressed by papargala. In 12th house we have Sun, Mars and exalted Mercury. Sun and Mars are close to each other. Sun, being the 11th lord, indicates secret enemies who pose as close aides but work out secret plans. Sun indicates powerful people. Exalted Mercury indicates intelligent enemies. Exalted Ketu in 2nd house signifies Mars and points out his finger towards enemies in his own camp. As this is dhana sthana also, this indicates misappropriation of large sums of money. Lagna papargala shows that the Mahant was victimized and rendered helpless by powerful enemies.
Retro and Neecha Saturn and retro Jupiter in 4th indicate trouble at home front and conspiracies. This being the house of mind, it denotes high level stress and depression. Both Saturn and Jupiter landing in the 3rd house Dhanus by retrogression shows destruction of ayush or longevity. It is to be noted that this incident happened not long after Jupiter stepped into Makara on retrogression.
Moon, karaka for mind and the 10th lord, is in 6th house of enemies indicating fight for authority in the Akhada. So, it is clearly an inside matter and a power struggle.
Exalted Rahu in the 8th indicates treachery and betrayal. His 5th aspect falls on the three planets in 12th house defining all this to be an big conspiracy. Uranus is at 20 deg. Mesha looking at Lagna degree 24 closely, suggesting this to be a violent attack on the Mahant.
Though there are no papa grahas in the 3rd house, but it is crushed by papargala, exactly proving the Jaimini sutra for suicide by hanging.
Let me look at the Navamsha chart by using Rasi Tulya Navamsha technique. There is a dreaded Shapitha Yoga in the 7th from Lagna indicating a bad curse from close associates. Nodal axis hitting the Lagna shows that it is a murder. Exalted Venus and Mars on the Rasi Moon shows involvement of women and heavy money in this matter.
Prasna Dasa was Saturn- Mercury - Ketu. Saturn indicates conspiracies at home (Ashram), Mercury shows intelligent secret plots, Ketu shows misappropriation of funds and violence. Saturn-Mercury is depression and Saturn - Ketu indicates danger to life.
What does all this prove? As per Astrology, it is not suicide but a clear case of murder or he is pushed by circumstances to the point of taking his own life. Either way, it is tantamount to murder. Now, it is in the hands of the investigating agencies to unravel the mystery.
