you see, the score of Gim' Milan remains very good in each case but the marriage may-break in each one of these cases on account of different reasons in each example. Similarly, many other such combinations are possible which can break this marriage on account of many other reasons, though the score of Gun Milan may remain very high. What is the relevance of this system of Gun Milan if everything can change in a direction which is opposite to the one predicted by it?
Match Making & Manglik Dosh is his 39' book. Himanshu Shangari is a Vedic Astrologer and Personality Developer and he's been doing intensive research in both these fields since many years. His TV show Karma Kundali our Jyotish has got wonderful response first on TV and then on YouTube even till the date. His books Heaven and Hell Within in 2 Parts, Important Yogas in Vedic Astrology, Three Monsters of Vedic Astrology, Gemstones: Magic or Science, Kaal Sarp Yog, Pitra Dosh, Sankat Mochak; and the series of books on Retrograde Planets, Exalted Planets, Debilitated Planets and Combust Planets have attracted great applause from readers all across the globe. At a relatively young age, he possesses knowledge that surpasses his age, in a big way.
Such is the impact of this man who gives all the credit of his knowledge to his Ishta Dev, lord Shiva. In his own words, "It is only the grace of Lord Shiva that I've been blessed with this much knowledge, and I deserve no credit for it. Lord Shiva has chosen me to serve humanity through this knowledge and I do my best to come up to his expectations, and that's all there is to it."
Vedic Astrology is undoubtedly the oldest and most comprehensive faith of astrology among all such faiths practiced across the globe, and whereas some of these faiths have the depth and volume of a stream, some of a river, Vedic Astrology is the Ocean which can provide resources to all these faiths and which can validate or invalidate any one of these faiths.
I have studied and researched many such faiths like Numerology, Vaastu etc. but none of them holds their ground without the support of Vedic Astrology and it is the faith which is the backbone or motherboard of all such faiths. This is what inspired me to make a carrier choice with the Ocean itself and now after years and years of this voyage; I can happily say that I made the right choice, many years back.
The fact that Vedic Astrology is the oldest among such faiths, also exposes it and makes it vulnerable to many types of corruptions and adulterations from time to time which may have come in the form of selfish additions in some of the purest Vedic Astrology scriptures or which may have resulted from misinterpretations of many important concepts of Vedic Astrology, from time to time. It is only due to such adulterations, corruptions and misinterpretations, that Vedic Astrology does not look as complete and accurate to many people interested in it, as it actually is, in this day and age.
With the Grace of Lord Shiva, I have spent years in researching various concepts of Vedic Astrology and in finding where and how much, such concepts may have been misinterpreted and what could be the possible correct interpretation of these divine concepts. And whereas in their misinterpreted forms, most such concepts of Vedic Astrology do not hold ground in real practice of astrology, almost all of them hold solid ground in their modified forms.
I have found out this fact after years of intensive research on these topics and after cross checking them with thousands of horoscopes so that they should hold ground when it comes to real life and real horoscopes instead of just reflecting on paper, and after all this effort, I can say that now they do hold ground in their modified forms.
Hence this book should be understood as an effort to create such awareness among the lovers of Vedic Astrology that this faith itself is still as complete as it was when it was born, but various misinterpretations from time to time, may have caused confusions related to many important concepts of this faith. Through this book, I have tried to create awareness about various aspects related to the concepts of Match Making and Manglik Dosh.
This book starts with an article on Match Making, which discusses some of the prevailing beliefs related to this concept and which also deals with some interesting facts related to this concept. Here are some excerpts from this article.
The system of Gun Milan is based on the placement of Moon and Moon alone, in specific signs and specific nakshatras of the natives being considered for match making. Hence this system is also not complete in its own, just like the system of calculating compatibility on the basis of Sun signs, though it may certainly be more effective than the latter one. This is once again due to the fact that no single planet can govern the overall tone of a horoscope as well as the compatibility factor between two natives, even if that one planet is Moon or Sun, the two most important planets in any faith of astrology. Hence this system also doesn't hold ground, just like the system practiced in the west.
Considering an example, if a boy is born with Moon in the sign of Gemini and in the nakshatra of Punarvasu; and a girl is born with Moon in the sign of Libra and in the nakshatra of Swati, the system of Gun Milan assigns 28 points to this match, and hence the compatibility should be very good. However, it may be far away from the truth and here is how.
The signs Gemini and Libra as well as the nakshatras Punarvasu and Swati are considered to complement each other in relation to most koots and hence the compatibility score comes out very good. The lords of the Moon signs namely Mercury and Venus are friendly, the nakshatras are compatible with each other and hence there should be no problem in this match. As easy and pleasant it may look though, it may not be the case in reality. Let's add some more variables to these horoscopes and see what may happen to his compatibility.
Starting with minimum possible changes, let's assume that the boy is born with Cancer ascendant and the girl is born with Libra ascendant. As Moon lies in the twelfth house of boy's horoscope in the sign of Gemini and it lies in the first house of girl's horoscope in the sign of Libra, this small fact changes a lot. The boy with Moon being the lord of ascendant placed in the twelfth house of his horoscope in a nakshatra like Punarvasu is likely to be a person of spiritual interests with less focus on materialistic achievements. This native is generally content with what he gets and he is not in a hurry to achieve one goal after the other.
Looking at this girl's horoscope, Moon being the lord of the tenth house is placed in the first house in the sign of Libra. It means that this girl is likely to be highly ambitious and she is likely to keep working hard for one achievement after the other. The boy loves to enjoy his moments being alone or being in the company of the people very close to him, whereas the girl loves to be in the company of more and more people and she wishes to be the center of attraction among a large number of people. The boy may love visiting scenic places or spiritual places whereas the girl may love to visit places with ultra modern facilities.
You see, there is a great contrast between the lifestyles of these natives and this contrast will start pulling them apart, soon after their marriages. Whereas the boy may want to settle at a certain level of professional as well as person growth and enjoy it, the girl may never be satisfied and she may want more and more, as Libra is the sign of ambitions and the placement of a planet like Moon in this sign, and that too being the lord of the tenth house which demands high visibility, can make is almost impossible for this girl to feel satisfied with what she has, at any point in her life.
As a result, the girl may keep running and the boy may even stop walking as he may want to sit and relax. Hence the distance between the boy and girl may keep increasing and at one point in time, the girl may seek a divorce from this guy. This is because she may feel that this guy is the biggest obstacle in her path to achieve the goals of her life as he may not support her; in her pursuit of goal after goal. On the contrary, he may try to preach her how not to be so ambitious and how to be content. The girl may feel choked and restricted in this marriage; and she may walk out of it.
In some of these cases, the girl may be dominant and she may keep pulling the boy with her from one achievement to the other, despite his strong unwillingness to do so. In such a case, the boy may seek divorce at a point in time, when the pace of events may become too fast for him to handle. Whether this girl asks for a divorce of the boy does so, the result is the same, which is a broken marriage. You see, how a small change in variables can change everything, though the system of Gun Milan may indicate a very good marriage.
Making another change to this boy's horoscope, if a malefic combination of Venus and Mercury is placed in the fourth house of his horoscope in the sign of Libra when Moon is placed in the twelfth house in the sign of Gemini, the situation may change once again. This boy may not be much inclined towards spiritualism or he may not be much content but the marriage may still break. This boy may have high sexual urges and he may engage in more than one extramarital affair. One or more than one of these affairs may come to the knowledge of his wife and this marriage may break due to such extramarital affair.
Considering one more possibility, let's ignore the combination of Venus and Mercury in the recent change and let's make another type of equation. Let's assume that in boy's horoscope, Moon is placed in the twelfth house in the sign of Gemini along with malefic Ketu; and malefic Rahu is placed zri the sixth house in the sign of Sagittarius along with Jupiter. In girl's horoscope, Moon is placed in the first house in the sign of Libra and a malefic combination of Jupiter and retrograde Mercury is placed in the seventh house in the sign of Aries. The marriage may once again break. This time, the native and his wife may have very bad equation of compatibility and the two of them may engage in heated arguments, verbal abuse and even physical abuse. Hence the marriage may ultimately break, and even the divorce may be finalized after much trouble and drama.
You see, how the score of Gun Milan remains the same in each case but the marriage may break in each one of these cases on account of different reasons depending on the overall tone of the horoscopes of the two natives in question. Similarly, many other such combinations are possible which can break this marriage on account of many other reasons, though the score of Gun Milan may remain the same. What is the relevance of this system of Gun Milan if everything can change in a direction which is opposite to the one predicted by it?
The answer to this question is that the system of Gun Milan does hold its relevance and the system of calculating compatibility on the basis of Sun signs also holds it ground, but not in the way many people think. These systems are parts of the whole equation of match making which is much bigger and which includes many other variables; and these systems are not complete equations in themselves, as they are commonly considered to be.
