As usual, journalists in the print and television media rushed to astrologers to ask what would be the effect of the passage of Venus across the bright disk of Sun on 8 June 2004. What this phenomenon is can be understood if the distinction between lunar and solar eclipses and this phenomenon is kept in the mind. There is the role of Rahu/Ketu in lunar and solar eclipses while here all that happens is that Venus comes between the earth and Sun. Other planets may or may not join it as happens also in solar and lunar eclipses. So for the purpose of our discussion we can call it Venus-Sun Phenomenon or VSP.

The mention of his name for presidential election made me dig out his horoscope from my records. One noting there is that the marriage of his daughter was fixed for December 1987. More important, his wife (born in 1938), Smt. Geeta (Suvra) Mukherji is a singer of Rabindra Sangeet. I checked to see if she would become the first lady after her husband becomes the president of India. The answer was positive. The date of marriage noted was 13 July 1957. Mr. Mukherji is the fourth child of his parents with two sisters and one brother elder to him and three sisters younger. Mrs. Mukherji is the first child of her parents and has a younger brother.
Dr. B.V. Raman had given him (my Jyotish Guru) a span of life of 90 years according to his astrological calculation perhaps because his Atmakaraka, Moon, was in the 9th house with Jupiter. But he himself had said, "I will take samadhi as soon as the mahadasha of Mercury will begin."
"B.V. Raman's analysis is wrong", he said proceeded to explain it astrologically thus
Horoscope
1. The lagna and the 8th lord, Mars, is debilitated.
2. The 10th lord is not in kendra.
3. The 3rd lord, Mercury is in the 8th house and retrograde.
4. Mercury is a maraka for Mesha lagna.
5. Mercury, the 2nd lord from the Moon, is placed in the 12th from it.
6. After the dashas of Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter and Saturn, the dasha of Mercury will be the 7th. In the Vimshamsha, Mercury is the 12th lord, time for samadhi and sadhe saati will be on.
Yogi he was and used to say, "Do bhajans. Bhajan is the medicine for all ailments and suffering".
His hints about my horoscope;
He used to say, "Yours is Tula lagna and Mesha navamsha and mine is Mesha lagna and Tula navamsha.'
2. My 9th lord (Jupiter) which represents the Guru is on your 5th lord (Saturn) both in Dhanu.
3. Your Moon is in the 11th from my Moon, which shows the possibilities of your fulfilling my incomplete work.
Gajakesari Yoga
If human life is a half-told story of stifled sobs, the company of a Yogi is the perfume in it of a flower. In this horoscope (of Yogiji) that flower is the Gajakesari yoga in the 9th house. Both Jupiter and the Moon are in blemishless condition here. There is no aspect of any planet on it nor any conjunction. The 4th lord in the 9th is the ashram and there is Jupiter here. But what is the ashram of a guru? A scholar has explained, "Aa-Samantaat Shramah" the place where all types of labour is to be done. Is there any place fulfilling such condition?
Mars in the 4th
Sick of the politics of the ashram he had come back to Ahmadabad. His Guru had assured him that he would appear after his samadhi (death). Such divine hope assumes the shape of life's effulgence.
Perhaps this had happened in Jupiter-Mars (1966-67) which he wanted to erase from his memory. But subtle hurts are unbearable, particularly if they come from a person whom you venerate. Jupiter and Mars are 6/8 here.
In the crematorium like silence of his house,in Jupiter-Rahu (1967-69) he, as though, wanted to live down that memory. Two currents flowed in his life side by side, to stop that interminable flow of his sobs and the unbroken spells of meditation which was like the flow of oil.
Saturnine detachment became strong as soon as the mahadasha of Saturn started. Deep thinking in his cloistered life was very natural now because in the Vimshamsha both Saturn and the Moon are in the 9th house. As his sadhana deepened he started getting disinterested in astrology. When he did the discussion of any horoscope, he paid attention to two aspects invariably. When and how will Life-Force flow and the spiritual side. This is the essence of jyotisha which is a truth-based preaching.
Blessings
Were someone to ask me if I have seen anyone's blessings give fruits a hundred percent I will say, without a moment's hesitation,"Yes, my Jyotish guru's".
The aspect of Jupiter on his Ketu in the 5th house had given him such supernatural power that he did not need astrology anymore.
Who came to him why and with concealed motive--he knew all that.
I must have taken at least one hundred astrologers to him. He blessed only a young girl that jyotisha will be a divine eye for her, which came out correct. Others are the shopkeepers in a bazaar minting money like street ruffians.
Last Darshan: In 1988, he once rang me up from Neetibag and said, "Will you not come to meet me? We will not meet after this."
When I met him last, he was passing through the antardasha of Jupiter in the mahadasha of Saturn. He had faraway looks, the past had disappeared from his life and it was only the Luminescent Present that remained. Eyes were, as though, inebriated, it was that
God-intoxicated condition which Meerabai described:
Friends drink and dance,
I, without drinking, dance.
Quaffed have I God's Love,
Incessant is inebriation now
Dyed I am, in God's splendor.
On 12 April 1991 singing a bhajan in his Ahmadabad ashram he fell into the immortal slumber of ultimate Samadhi.
