The name game! (Part 2)

I have found 9 to be a magical number. It is a fiery number well suited for police, navy and army, but surprisingly many trendsetting artistes have names that add upto number 9.

Innumerable examples like, Ghulam Ali (27), Madonna (27),Sylvester Stallone (63), N.T.Rama Rao (27), Rajnikanth (27), Ghantasala (27), Madhubala (27), Mali (9), D.K.Pattammal (36), Palghat Mani Iyer (45), M.S.Subbulakshmi (45), Elvis Presley (45), Elizabeth Taylor (45), Bismillah Khan (36), Latha Mangeshkar (45), Umayalpuram K.Sivaraman (63), Semmangudi, popularly known by his surname-(36), to name a few.The number 27 is known as "The Sceptre" and bestows power, command and authority on the person or entity. The other compound numbers 36 and 45 have the same meaning as 27. Even the dynamic organisation, "Music Academy" adds to 36 (the name vibrates without the prefix-'The', as people usually refer to the organisation without 'the'. Even with 'The' it adds upto 50 which is again a Mercury number of great authority).

18, though a compound number of 9, is full of upheavals and controversial situations ,where the native always has to fight against odds in life.It is therefore the least desirable number of the 9 group.

A vital branch of numerology is based on combined analysis of planets and numbers, known as astro numerology. Pythagaros, who had invented the Law of vibration,stated that according to that law, each and every number has a particular vibration.

The planets represented by the numbers are:-No.1-Sun, No.2-Moon, No.3-Jupiter, No.4-Rahu, No.5-Mercury, No.6-Venus, No.7-Kethu, No.8- Saturn, No.9-Mars.

There is a practice of coining names based on the strength of planets in the native's horoscope.For instance, if somebody's Rahu is strong, a name that adds upto the number 4(compound numbers-13, 22, 31, 40, 49 etc. ) is recommended for the native despite Western numerology's contempt for all compound numbers of 4. Even vedic astrology states that Rahu is responsible for skin diseases of a virulent type, misunderstandings, fear from opponents and poison.

A startling example of the above is the case of Michael Jackson. Interestingly his names (first as well as surname) adds upto 22 individually.

MICHAEL (4135153)-22, JACKSON (1132375)-22.

The genius pop icon suffered from a skin related problem known as vitiligo. At sometime of his career he was also involved in a fire accident that had caused extensive damage to his skin. The subsequent operations performed on him to save his face and skin, altered his looks to drastic proportions. All these facts about him were widely publicised and well-known to general public.The double Rahu in his name even exposed him to constant upheavals and controversies in his personal life. Therefore the number of Rahu is not altogether devoid of problems.

On the other hand I found the compound number of 13 to be quite magnetic. Especially the abbreviated versions like, TVS (463), BPL (283),AIADMK (111442), BSNL (2353), PBS (823), SPB (382), MLV (436) , KVN (265) etc. Though not abbreviated,'NALLI' (51331) could be included in the list.This number sparks off regeneration and great changes.

A strong Rahu (4 and all compound numbers of 4) in the horoscope indicates one's prowess in Veena and it is not surprising that Veena (65551) adds upto 22 which is a Rahu number!

Kethu, 7 is another number that surprises me! According to Western chaldean method of numerology, 7 is considered extremely harmful as a name number. All its compound numbers like 16 (known as the shattered citadel), 25 (extreme trials and tribulations in early life), 34 ( same as 25), 43 (worst of all, revolution,strife,upheaval and dangers), 52 etc., are treated with fear, making people opt for a Venus or Mercury number in the place of Kethu.

Two examples of 43 are:-

SALMAN (313415)- 17,1+7=8 RUSHDIE (2635415) -26, 2+6=8 added upto 43 and individual first and surnames added to 8 each (first name value:8 and surname value:8), ruled by saturn which is the most karmically testing and trying planet. Even in his surname, the lexigram of the same when split, give rise to two potently negative words!In this case, a change in the spelling of his surname and opting for a different compound vibration is mandatory in order to make life hassle-free for him.

Similar example of another person who is also an author is:-

TASLIMA (4133141)-17, 1+7=8 NASREEN (5132555)- 26,2+6=8

It is ironical that the above mentioned are authors, carrying the heavy burden of a double saturn in both first as well as surnames ( adding upto a 43) and also leading similar lifestyles. In such cases, spelling changes in their names in order to achieve a favourable number becomes mandatory.

Smt.M.S.Subbulakshmi, famously known as MS (4,3) adding to 7 has proved lucky for her as the number coincides with her birthdate which is 16th (of September). Any name number which adds upto the birth date value is extremely lucky and carries with it the blessing of the cosmos.

Even if the abbreviation MS (as she was more popularly known) added upto 7,a Kethu number (same as her birthdate value of 16), SRIDEVI is 22 and added to 4, a Rahu number (same as her birthdate value of 13th August), the numbers prove to be rewarding for gaining immense popularity, due to the coincidence of their dates of birth and name numbers.

Other successful Kethu numbers are:- RELIANCE (25311535)-25, T.R.MAHALINGAM (4.2.4151315314)- 34, AISHWARYA RAI (113561211 211)- 25, AMITABH BACHCHAN (1414125 21353515)-43, etc.

Mars, ( number 9) is perfectly projected through the ace thriller film KILL (9) BILL (9). This superbly shot stunning movie, that has made me an ardent fan of Uma Thurman, wreaks of violence and aggressive action as a result of the double 9 (fiery Mars) in the name of the movie!

KEYWORDS:-I also search for keywords (lexigram codes without word jumbling ) and found them to be relevant codes in conveying predominant karmic issues concerning the native.

It is loud and clear that one can never become the greaTEST without a test-Lord Rama, Lord Sita, and the Dasavatharas, great Sanyasis and avataara purushaas like Adi Sankaracharya, Paramacharya ( the tests in case of true sanyasis is the austere life they lead!).

I have wondered how a FUNeral could be 'fun' and a 'real fun' at that! Going by our scriptures, I am sure it is real fun for the departed soul to be freed from 'maya' (illusion)!

This pattern of ideas set me thinking about many other terms like MARriage, feMALE, woMAN, torMENTOR, heART, lOVER, PASSion, MOTHer,mOTHER, fatHER, brotHER, husBAND, HEAVEn, mUSic, sLAUGHTER, etc.

Maybe, late Sri Rajiv Gandhi's name should never have been spelt -" Rajeev Gandhi " as that could have averted the "die in grenade danger" lexigram in his name!In the case of public figures (politicians, movie stars, musicians, artistes etc.,) the danger of extreme vibration of name, due to their names appearing in newspapers and journals (increasing the count to a few million times due to that many number of copies printed!) is hazardous and makes it absolutely necessary for the concerned entity to take care that their names are not misspelt!

Sometime ago I had received a forward about lexigrams, which I found to be interesting:-

PRINCESS DIANA- END IS A CAR SPIN

ASTRONOMER- MOON STARER

DESPERATION- A ROPE ENDS IT

THE EYES- THEY SEE

THE MORSE CODE- HERE COME DOTS

ELECTION RESULTS-LIES- LET'S RECOUNT

SLOT MACHINE- CASH LOST IN ME

SNOOZE ALARMS- ALAS!NO MORE Z'S

DECIMAL POINT- I AM A DOT IN PLACE

THE EARTH QUAKES- THAT QUEER SHAKE

ELEVEN PLUS TWO- TWELVE PLUS ONE

To wind up on a note of humour:-

MOTHER-IN-LAW- WOMAN HITLER

I have understood that the problem of lexigram and numerology arises because of the language,English. Without fighting or opposing karma, a person could neutralise bad vibrations in his/ her name by writing it down in mother tongue or sanskrit for atleast 3 times ( only if such an exercise becomes absolutely necessary!)

LIKHITHA JAPAM:-The best practice is "likhitha japam" , which is the written exercise of mantras related to the chosen deity to cross hurdles in life. This practice again should not be done in English,as that would amount to problems related to lexigram and numerology! Likhitha japam is best done in mother tongue or Devanagari.

A few mantras are:-

1)For success in all endeavours-Sri Rama Jayam

2)For great inner strength-Sri Mathrey Namaha

3)For love-Om Parama Prema Roopaya Namaha

4)To overcome misunderstandings between couple-Sri Radhakrishnaya Namaha

5)To enhance beauty and attraction-Om Padmasundaryai Namaha

6)For education and intellect-OmAim Saraswathyai Namaha

7)To remove obsatcles and blockages in chakras-Om Gum Ganapathaye Namaha

8)For the grace of Guru-Sri Gurubhyo Namaha.etc.

There are many more mantras suited for various problems and it is not necessary to incur new karma by changing names! Interestingly, I happened to browse this site http://www.9dozen.com/ which could be used for "likhitha japam", this could be useful for people who work with computers or who simply do not have the time for a pen and paper!

The name game! ( Part 1)

I have observed that in today's world, numerology is a powerful occult science that yields immediate and effective results. Like how every plus has a minus, even this practice has a definite drawback to it, and that is called 'lexigram'.

Numerology is all about the numerical value of a person's name. In certain cases the name given by parents at the time of birth could contain letters amounting to an inimical vibration and unfavourable to the life number (which is the total sum of the birth date,month and year) of the native.

In such cases, modern numerology advocates an alteration in the spelling of the name of the native. Sometimes it could mean deletion/addition of an alphabet or deletion/addition of a vowel! After the name alteration,the native is advised to write his/her name as many number of times and days as the total numerical value of his/her name. I have observed that such a practice could yield harmful results when the 'lexigram' of the new name is not double-checked for possible bad/negative/evil lexigram results.

What is lexigram? The term lexigram has been used to describe a mystical property of words. A lexigram decodes hidden messages in words or titles by putting together full sentences from letters in that word that convey a deeper meaning of the original word. It is considered a spiritual process.

My Guru in lexigram is none other than Linda Goodman. I have been fascinated by her revelations (in her book, Star Signs, the secret codes of the Universe) regarding lexigram so much so that it has become my practice to mentally decode the name (including surname, which indicates situation,life style and temperament) of any person I happen to meet.In that process I have been able to appreciate the authenticity of lexigram due to the accuracy of the decoded messages in describing the concerned person! As somebody acutely conscious of the power of lexigram, I am wary of modern numerology that advocates either deletion or addition of alphabets in names that would amount to removing a positive message from the name or introducing a negative message into the concerned name!

To start with the basics,I have observed that Linda Goodman's Chaldean method (which is also called the mystical numerology) is commonly followed due to its simple theory which involves comparitive study of the life number [which is achieved by adding the date,month and year of birth] and the name number of the native for compatibility between the two) . The result is quite effective. The alphabetical value in the Chaldean method is as follows:-

A-1, B-2, C-3, D-4, E-5, F-8, G-3, H-5, I-1, J-1, K-2, L-3, M-4, N-5, O-7, P-8, Q-1, R-2, S-3, T-4, U-6, V-6, X-5, y-1, z-7.

Without getting into the nitty-gritty of life-path-number-versus-name-number-compatibility, the Chaldean method provides an easy way out by determining the nature of certain numbers. The numbers that are meant for fine arts, beauty, love & romance, cosmetics etc. is 6 (ruled by Venus)and all the compound numbers that add to 6. The number meant for communication, advertising, journalism, media works like radio and television is 5 (ruled by Mercury) . For someone in the field of fine arts,I had always found 5 more effective than 6, because communication is a vital factor for arts. Even if the native is not performing in public, expression ('bhava' and 'manodharma') come under the category of communication and Mercury is an important planet for all musicians.

The compound numbers that add upto 5 are 14, 23, 32, 41, 50 and so on. I personally found 14 to be risk and accident prone, 23 as a solid number capable of fighting lone battles and emerging as the victor even against worst odds and enemies (no wonder that this number is known as "The Royal star of the Lion"), 32 for exuding personal magnetism thereby attracting groups of people and a lively,social atmosphere, 41 as absolutely potent,but the transit from the original name to a 41 vibration is extremely trying and difficult to withstand, 50 to make the native matured, as a teacher or a preacher of some sort.

As a student of astrology, I had interacted with many numerologists, pronologists and astrologers to learn new approaches. I knew of this reputed astrologer who had a penchant for throwing in a good measure of "h"s into a name to somehow bring about a '41' vibration in the name. He firmly believed that 41 could raise the native to unimaginable heights and he could be right.Except that too many 'h's could mar the lexigram potential of the name.

My astrologer friend was keen that I change the spelling of my name to -E.GHAYETHREE to achieve a 41 (this despite my other name,VEENAI GAYATHRI ,( a name which I acquired when my articles were published in Kumudam almost three decades ago) adding to 41 (655511 31114521)! Not only does it look awkward, but the keyword, 'gay' is replaced by 'hay', which means dried grass! Even for a 41 ,I would not like to be reduced to a lump of dried grass! I told my friend that handling Veenai Gayathri robbed me of my stamina for anymore 41s! Incidentally, my blog, "JASMINE STRINGS", adds to a 41.I had coined the name (because I think Jasmine flowers smell divine!)after careful scrutiny for any lexigram hitches.I liked the fragrance (jasmine),' rings' ( resonance), 'sings' (melodious), etc., the only hitch being the 'sting' in the name.I told myself I would handle any sting as and when it came my way!

There are many natural 41s in this world, A few examples are :-M.G.RAMACHANDRAN (4.3.214135154215), HARRY POTTER (51221 874452),LALGUDI G.JAYARAMAN (93133641 3. 111121415), ANGELINA JOLIE (15353151 17315), GEORGE BUSH (357235 2635) etc.,

I personally found even 23 to be an extremely safe and victorious number in projecting one's personality. Few examples,J.JAYALALITHA (1.1113131451), BEATLES (2514353), D.K.JAYARAMAN (4.2.111121415) etc.

32 is magnetic for speeches, poetic recitation etc. P.B.SRINIVAS, multi-faceted singer/writer/poet/linguist/orator etc. is a fantastic example of this number!

I had found 66 to be absolutely fantastic for veena playing. I happened to read the book on numerology by Sri Laxmidoss, which was quite analytical based on planets and their relationship to numbers. It was casually mentioned in the book that ladies who played the veena would benefit from the double Venus in 66(more so,because it is exalted in the house of Pisces owned by Jupiter [6+6==12, a compound number of 3 which is a Jupiter number).I wanted to try it out and a few years back, when I had a lot of leisure time, I started writing my name (GAYATHRIVASANTTASHOBHA-[3111452161315441357251] which is my birth name given by my parents,I had to delete a 'h' from Vasantha and add a 't' to it) religiously for 66 times for nearly one month in an effort to test the results.I was fascinated to discover that I played more veena than ever before, could create novel ideas and felt very good in general.I would constantly be with the veena, and my ease on the instrument during the 66-vibration period was tremendous to say the least! But soon the strain of writing a big name for 66 times became too much to take and I abandoned the entire exercise midway. In the event I also discovered that more letters in the name meant more additions to qualities,events, situations and changes in life,( due to lexigram) which I felt were unwarranted and unwelcome despite 'Gayathrivasanttashobha' having a 'NO' to cancel negative meanings in my name! This also made me realise how much more peaceful life would be without additions in the name, resulting in too many code meanings and messages! I had learnt astrology and numerology only due to my interest in occult studies, all the while maintaining my belief in God as the Supreme Being; realizing the simple truth that changing names amounted to fighting or opposing karma.

As a matter of analysis, my natural name E.Gayathri may be decoded as 'rate', 'they hear her art', 'they rate her art','they gather at her art', 'right', 'grit', 'eight' (?), 'try', 'hearty', etc. (except the 'eight' part I understand the rest), but I could not bring myself to adjust to the fact that 'they hate her', 'they hate Gayathri'. Many a time I shared my fears (about 'they- hate- her' -code) with my husband and he consoled me in his usual philosophic manner. He explained that to be hated, to be abused or scolded, to be insulted and hurt; for no rhyme or reason are the best things to happen to oneself (that is , when the affected person does not resist or strive to clear his/her name by opposing or fighting against the accusation). Such an unjustified attack on somebody would reduce the victim's karma by leaps and bounds, not only that, God would shower His blessings and grace only on a defenseless person! He quotes Bhagavad Gita's sloka from the 12th chaptervery often, "Thulya -Ninda- Sthuthir- Mouni-Santhushto-Enakenachith

Anikethaha - sthiramathihi-bhakthiman-me-priyo-naraha!"

Literal Translation:-"One who is equal to friends and enemies, who is equipoised in honour and dishonour, heat and cold, happiness and distress, fame and infamy, who is always free from contamination, always silent and satisfied with anything, who does not care for any residence, who is fixed in knowledge and engaged in devotional service, is very dear to Me!"

My husband's reasoning gave me a lot of comfort and it stuck in my mind so much so that, I kind of like the 'they-hate-her' vibration!

It is important to note that the first name has to be studied along with the surname (husband's name or family/village name) to derive coded messages and meanings.
