Introduction
Root of the word “Bhakti’” coming from the word “Bhaj” wich means ‘ to be attached to Lord’. Bhajan, worshiping, Anurag, Prema and Priti are synonyms for Bhakti. Bhakti is real, truthful search for Lord, which starts, continuing and finishing in Love. Just one moment of extreme love to Lord, can lead us to eternal freedom. “Bhakti,” by Narada, ‘is intense Love toward Lord. When a man gets it, he love everybody, hates non; and he is satisfied forever. This love can’t be reduced by any worldly benefits, because as long as worldly desires lasts, this kind of Love won’t take place in the heart of man. Bhakti is greater then Karma, Bhakti is greater then Yoga, because these are intended for an object in view, while Bhakti is its own fruition, its own means and its own end”1 There is no big difference between knowledge (Jnana) and Love (Bhakti). In the end, both are seeking for the same destination. But there is lot of misunderstanding in opinions those who teach knowledge (Jnana) and those who teach Love (Bhakti), although everybody appreciate the power of Bhakti yoga. One great privilege of Bhakti yoga is that it is the most easiest and the most spontaneous way to reach great divine end and big disadvantage is that in its lower forms it oftentimes degenerates into hideous fanaticism. But this danger exists only in that state of Bhakti which is called the preparatory (GAUNI). When Bhakti has become ripe and has passed into that form which is called supreme (PARA), there is no more fear of these hideous manifestations of fanaticism. That soul which is overpowered by this higher form of Bhakti is too near to God of Love to became an instrument for diffusion of hatred.

Kinds of Bhakti There are different kinds of Bhakti. One of the divisions is on Sakamya and Nishkamya Bhakti. Sakamya Bhakti is devotion because of desires for material gains. Then, the person who wants various material wealth, health, position, ect. do different kinds of Tapas, Japa and offering, to get it. What ever man want, if his Bhakti is intensive and open hearted and if his prayers come from the heart, he will get everything. But, Samakya yoga, definitely is not the way to get Moksha.
A way to Moksha, enlightenment, is Nishkamya bhakti, devotion without any prospect, devotion from the pure Love to Lord.
Bhakti Bhavas
Bhava or state provide truthful and real connection between devotee and the Lord. When that connection get steady, it grows in the Maha Bhava in which devotee lives, moves and do everything for the Lord. This is called Parama Prema, Great Love.
There are five Bhavas or five states of Bhakti. There are Shanta, Dasya, Sakhya, Vatsalya and Madhurya Bhava.
In Shanta Bhava, the devotee is Shanta or peaceful. He does not jump and dance. He is not highly emotional. His heart is filled with love and joy. Bhishma was a Shanta Bhakta.
Sri Hanuman was a Dasya Bhakta. He had Dasya Bhava, servant attitude. He served Lord Rama whole-heartedly. He pleased his Master in all possible ways. He found joy and bliss in the service of his Master.
In Sakhya Bhava, God is a friend of the devotee. Arjuna had this Bhava towards Lord Krishna. The devotee moves with the Lord on equal terms. Arjuna and Krishna used to sit, eat, talk and walk together as intimate friends.
In Vatsalya Bhava, the devotee looks upon God as his child. Yasoda had this Bhava with Lord Krishna. There is no fear in this Bhava, because God is your pet child. The devotee serves, feeds, and looks upon God as a mother does in the case of her child.

The last is Madhurya Bhava or Kanta Bhava. This is the highest form of Bhakti. The devotee regards the Lord as his Lover. This was the relation between Radha and Krishna. This is Atma Samarpana.
Nava-Vidha-Bhakti
Devotion to the Lord is developed on the nine different way which is called Nava-Vidha-Bhakti.
In the Srimad-Bhagavata and the Vishnu Purana it was told that the nine forms of Bhakti are:
Sravana (hearing of God's Lilas and stories),
Kirtana (singing of His glories),
Smarana (remembrance of His name and presence),
Padasevana (service of His feet),
Archana (worship of God),
Vandana (prostration to Lord),
Dasya (cultivating the Bhava of a servant with God),
Sakhya (cultivation of the friend-Bhava) and
Atmanivedana (complete surrender of the self).
Person can achieve Bhakti by following the eleven fundamental factors which Sri Ramanuja had prescribed. They are Abhyasa or practice of continuous thinking of God; Viveka or discrimination; Vimoka or freedom from everything else and longing for God; Satyam or truthfulness; Arjavam or straightforwardness; Kriya or doing good to others; Kalyana or wishing well-being to all; Daya or compassion; Ahimsa or non-injury; Dana or charity; and Anavasada or cheerfulness and optimism.
By his own predispositions and fellings native should choose on which way his Bhakti (devotion to Lord) will develop.

Guru Bhakti Impuls of the truthful spirituality must came from the person whose name is Guru, while the person who accept that impuls is called Shishya. In order to transmit that impuls, to any soul, Guru's soul at the first place must consist power of transmiting to another one; and at the second place, soul that received impuls must be commodious for that. Seed must be the live seed and field must be furrowed, and when this conditions are fulfil, it will bring the great arise of the honest faith.
Guru Bhakti is devotion to teacher. Relation of the allegiance, love and loyalty of the student on any field of learning. On the spiritual level, devotee insist to see his Guru as a highest level of the self. By accommodating to the Guru's internal nature and wisdom, student slowly transform his own nature, in order to get same peace i illumination which Guru possessed. Guru Bhakti is also manifested through the serving to Guru, meditation on his form, work familiar to the Guru's mind and to obeying His instructions.
Term, Guru means 'one who gives light to exterminate darkness of ignorance'. According to ancient Hindu script Advayataraka Upanishad, Guru means 'dispeler (GU) od darkness (RU). Guru concept is essence ancient Indian concept, which has no any parallel in tradition of other nations. In the ordinary way of speech, term Guru means teacher. To learn anything in the life, relative or spiritual, native needs help of the teacher. Guru's can be different, depending of attainment in knowledge and of the level at which they impart guidance. Therefore, native should be diligent in locating and identifying a real Guru.
This confirms GURU GITA where Shiva said to His wife Parvati: Verse 9:
' Guru is not different from the consciousness. This is an absolut truth. Because of this, wise man must search for his own Guru.'
Verse 23 & 24: 'First syllable 'GU' mean light, second 'RU' darkness. Guru is, without any doubt, Brahma who dispel all darkness.'
'Second syllable 'RU' is implied in attribute like Maya, and first 'GU' is the highest knowledge, which destroy the Maya.( 'GU' represents highest Unmanifestated Absolute, while 'RU' represent lower manifestated world.)’
How big is the greatness of the Guru shows the verse 32: • "Gurur Brahma, Gurur Vishnur

For better understanding concept of the Guru Bhakti we must entered deeper in basic principle of Hinduism. Brahma is, based on three types of guna: Satwa, Rajas and Tamas, create whole Universum, beings both animate and inanimate, who were classifed as Devas, Manushya and Rakshasa. In one moment all three types of Creation (based on Navamšas) are approach to Brahma to ask his about spiritual advise.
When Devas approach to Brahma for spiritual advise on which way to free themselves from the bondage of karma, Brahma answered "dam". Devas understand this like "dama" which means they should developed self control as "dama" means taming or subduing the body and mind. This is the highest definition of the guru and represents the Diksha guru who is responsible for helping and directing the Shishya (spiritual aspirant) in the path of self-realization. Thus, Diksha Guru must be the one who control five senses (Jnana Indiriyas) and five organs of action (Karma Indriyas) and the one who has the knowledge of the four Vedas (caturvedé). Only then he will have the power to take off one-sixth of our sins and to put us firmly on the path of self-realization. As Indra became the chief of the gods, Brihaspaty became their preceptor and the definition of the diksha guru was based on the attributes of Brihaspaty. Krishna explains this aspect of perfection in declaring that “among the preceptors I am Brihaspaty”.
Rakshasa approach to Creator and demanded their share of knowledge to which Brahma replied ‘dam’. The Rakshasa understood this to mean ‘daya" or compassion for in their tamas guna they are forever jealous of the devas, desiring the bounties of the manifested creation all for themselves and hankering for power. Rakshasa are not demons and instead it is the manifestation of one of the modes of nature namely tamas guna, where the created being has certain mental attributes causing jealousy, frustration and a hankering for others wealth and women.
The manushya approached Brahma for spiritual direction and Brahma replied “dam”. The manshya understood that Brahma meant dana or to give. Man by nature is selfish and greedy coveting all wealth and tending to store it without sharing. The spiritual message for him was to learn to give and this is the importance of the Upapada2. Through the Chandra Upapada3 he gives to the family and his society that satisfies the Pitries. TheSurya Upapada4 is what he gives to to the Guru and deities and for spiritual growth and emancipation. Thus, giving is the essence of all manushya.

There are three levels of guru and three types of guru. The first level of guru is the shiksha guru, the next is the diksha guru, and the highest guru is the Sat guru. The teaching of the shiksha guru (the first level of guru) will fall into three different types. Each person contains within themselves the three gunas and therefore everyone contains the deva thoughts, the rakshasa thoughts, and the manushya thoughts, each part of an individual needs to be cultivated.
The guru of the manushya (rajas guna) is called a sheni guru and teaches shrama (work). This guru teaches you how to work and earn your living. This guru gives you the knowledge to earn money and should give you the knowledge to share that wealth with the world. This guru can be compared to Brahma, earning is the motive of learning. The biggest teaching at the manushya level is dana (donation), not to be greedy and possessive.
The guru Rakšasa (tamas guna) gives direction to lead one out of darkness and ignorance. The Rakšasa already sustain themselves and they hanker for power and domination. This guru is like Shiva leading Rakšasa out of darkness5,. This guru teaches compassion and tolerance and give s the proper direction to an individual to lead them to the light, to the right path.
The guru of the devas (Satwa guna) teaches one to control the senses (dama). This guru gives the highest spiritual teachings. This is the path of spirituality and the practice of Yoga (working towards the reunion with the divine). This guru is like Visnu and leads the shishya to self-realization
Types of Guru Levels of Guru Manushya Shiksha Rakshasa Diksha Deva Sat
Primary Shiksha Guru is Sada Shiva, while primary Diksha Guru is Maha Vishnu.
Guru Bhakti and Jyotish Bhakti and Jnana is seen from the fifth bhava in Rasi, ninth bhava in Navamsha chart and from the Vimsamsa (Varga 20). The nature of worshiping is seen from the strongest Graha in fifth bhava. In regard to Grahas, the Vedic Deities are:
5 This is why Shiva is always shown blessing demons.
8
Vyam Vyasadevaya Namah Guru bhakti in the ninth bhava
There is a huge scheme of a Bramin's Deities i other shapes of
worshiping in Mediaeval India explained in Jyotish classic 'Prasna Marga'. Parasara and Jaimini confirm this scheme of Vedic deities. Maharishi Brighu teach several principles how to choose mantra:
Grahas in fifth bhava- if there is more then one graha in fifth bhava, then the strongest show leading mantra. For exemple, with Surya in fifth, Brighu Sutram advice worshiping God Surya.
Graha which aspect fifth bhava should be chosen only in case if there is no Grahas in fifth bhava.
We should take the mantra from the ruler of the fifth bhava only if there is no grahas in fifth and there is no grahas which aspect fifth bhava. In that case ruler of the fifth bhava must have good relationship with Lagnesh.
If in case given above, ruler of the fifth bhava has no good connection with Lagnesh, we should take his dispositor. Similary, durinig the dasha of graha, which has no any interaction with the ruler of the fifth or Mantrapada (A5), giving the mantra won’t help to native. We should look Vimsamsa (Varga 20) for determinate graha for mantra.
dharma, penance, all round good, should all be considered from the 9th house and the priest of the gods (Jupiter and Bhrätå Käraka).
Jätaka Pärijäta – Saptäñöamanavamabhävädhyäyaù – çloka 65 In Jaimini's Upadesham Sutram, Jyotish classic we saw that
the ninth bhava from Navamsha Lagna and ninth bhava from the Karakamsha are very important for developing religiousity of the native.

The Navamsa sign of the Bhratrukaraka7 itself is seen for the Guru Devata or Guide & teacher of the chart. The Guru(s) are indicated by the Bhratrikaraka as well as the planets conjoining and aspecting it in the Navamsa. These Guru(s) would be teaching Dharma, Jyotisha etc. i.e. Veda or Vedanga..

There are many traditional tools for timing the event of meeting the Guru or spiritual guide. These include:
The aspect of transit Jupiter (by Rasi dristi or sign sight) on the Mantrapada (A5) brings one into contact with the Guru and the receipt of Guru Mantra can take place if other factors favour.

The transit of Ketu in trines to the Arudha Lagna (AL) makes a person spiritually inclined and renunciation can occur.
The Drig dasa of the Arudha Lagna surely gives spirituality and can make a person join a spiritual/ religious order.
The Vimsottari dasa of planets influencing the fifth and ninth houses gives the knowledge of Mantra and Guru. This is also to be seen in the Vimsamsa (D-20) Chart.
Religiosity and spiritual learning is seen from the Vimsamsa chart
(Varga 20). Grahas in trine show which Devata will native worship and also their mantras. Mantra is seen from the ninth bhava (Japa), Bhakti (Love, worshiping any shape of Lord) is seen from the fifth bhava, while meditation is seen from the twelve bhava. Karaka for the 9th bhava is Guru, for 5th is Shukra and 12th is Ketu. Parasara explained which Devata native should worship considering Vimsamsa: BPHS:

Case 1. Traditional metod for determinate meeting with the Guru Female born 23th septembar 1982. in Sarajevo.
In the first place, we must determinate Ishta Devata, Palana Karta, Dharma Devata and Guru Devata.
Ishta Devata Ishta Devata is leading Deity, it is Devata whose purpose is to bring our Atma to Lord. Ishta Devata is relation between Jiva (individual soul) and Paramatma. For determinating Ishta Devata the most important is position of Atmakaraka in Navamsha chart8. Graha in the 12th bhava from it, or if there is no Graha, then the ruler of that bhava becomes Ishta Devata. Ishta Devata can’t be the same Graha as Atmakaraka, except in the cases of the Divine Incarnations9. In case 1, 12th bhava from Atmakaraka in Navamsha is Simha. Ishta Devata is Ketu, placed in Simha. Ketu shows Sri Ganesha. Since, Simha is fiery sign, Agni tatva, direction of Ishta Devata is east.
8 Karakamsha 9 This is only in the case when there is no Graha in 12th from Karakamsha and Atmakaraka rules by 12th bhava from itself.
12

. Palana Karta Palana Karta is Devata which rules over relative, material value. Palana Karta is determinated by position Amatyakaraka in Navamsha chart because Graha in the 6th bhava from it shows our Palana Karta. If there is two or more Grahas, we take the strongest one, unless there is no Graha in that bhava, we look the rulership. In case 1 Amatya Karaka is Shukra in Vrishchik and 6th from it is Mesh, where is also Arudha Lagna. Because we don’t have any Grahas in the Mesh, Chandra from Tula, Shukra from Vrishchika, Rahu, Surya and Guru from Kumbha by aspecting on it create situation that the native can worship all this Devatas, although Rahu is the strongest in Kumbha rashi, which represent Sri Durga.
Dharma Devata Dharma Devata is the Deity whose taking care about our Dharma, about leading principles of Atma. Dharma Devata is defined by the strongest Graha in the 9th bhava from Karakamsha or by the ruler of the 9th bhava in case if there is no Graha in it. Dharma Devata should worship if we want to harmonized our individual Dharmu with huge Dharma. In case 1, 9th bhava from the Karakamsha is Vrishab and there is no Graha in it, we will take rulership. Shukra rules over Vrishab and became Dharma Devata, placed in 3th from Karakamsha and in 12th from Lagnamsha.
Guru Devata After we determinate Devata for spiritual life, Devata for material, relative level, we need to discover Guru – spiritual teacher. Bhatru Karaka and it’s position in Navamsha will show us who can be our Guru. Bhatru Karaka in Chara Karaka Schema shows brothers, sisters, somebody that we share energy with, spiritual brother who will lead us to the Father. Guru Devata is Budh, placed in 8th bhava from Navamsha Lagna.

THE BEGINING OF THE SPIRITUAL WAY
Native entered to ISKON in 19th May 2002.
From the transit chart we saw that Atmakaraka (Shani), Bhatrukaraka (Budh) and Palana Karta (Rahu) were transiting Dharmapada (Arudha of the 9th bhava). Ishta Devata (Ketu) was placed in trines from Arudha Lagna and Lagnamsha, which is resulted in tendency for spiritual way of life. In Vimsotari Dasa, there was the Maha Dasa of Guru Devata (Budh), Antardasa of Guru and Pratyantar Dasa of the Lagnesh. In Drig Dasa it was Maha Dasa of the Kanya (Whose ruler is Budh, Guru Devata) and Antar Dasa Vrishchika (native’s 5th, ruler Ketu – Ishta Devata). INITIATION She got the initiation from her Guru in the 1th September 2004. in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Hercegovina
14
Vyam Vyasadevaya Namah Guru bhakti in the ninth bhava
Krgovic Zeljko SJC Serbia 2005
Here we saw that Guru has his fifth Drishti on Mantra pada (Arudha of 5th). Initiation was in Budh’s (Guru Devata) Maha Dasa, Shani’ s (Atmakaraka) Antardasa and Chandra’s (Lagnesh and dispositor of Atmakaraka in Navamsha). It was Drig Maha Dasa of Kanya (ruled Budh – Guru Devata) and Antar Dasa of Miin (her 9th bhava)
Who is the leading Deity we saw from Vimsamsa where the Surya, Chandra and Shukra are in trine. Shukra in Lagna shows the Bhakti yoga, Surya in 9th bhava shows righteous relation and great respect toward Guru and Chandra in 5th bhava shows that what we pray for and in this case is Lord Sri Krishna, which is the Devata of Chandra.
From the 5th bhava in Rasi chart and 9th bhava in Navamsha
chart, is seen Guru Bhakti (devotion to Guru). From Navamsha Lagna we saw which kind of bhakti we have. From 9th bhava from Karakamsha we saw the Diksha Guru and Dharma Devata. Diksha Guru is also seen from the position of Bhatrukaraka in Navamsha. Does the native have or haven’t got Diksha Guru, it’s depend of Dharma.
Ninth bhava in Navamsha signified relation with a Guru. Grahas like Guru and Surya shows highest respect toward Guru, while their connection will lead to some very good deeds, like building a temple, complete loyalty toward Guru, ect. Most badly position there is of Chandra, because it shows relationship with Guru or with his wife. Best situation is if there is no Grahas there at all, other than Guru and Ketu.

During the Surya – Shukra Dasa native was came to India to find his Diksha Guru, but he meets and stays with her next two week.In a meantime his Diksha Guru dies. In 9th bhava from Karakamsha is yuti Shani-Rahi, which is Shrada10 Yoga – deadly combination. Rahu is in Marana Karaka Sthan for Karakamsha Lagna and Shani and Rahu had rasi Drishti of Shukra. Rahu also repesent strangers, that girl was a stranger, came from Australia. And everything is happening in Antar Dasa of Shukra (Atma karaka), for who Sacred Scripts say that native must holdback from illegal relations and desires. Shukra rules over Karakamsha and also the Navamsha Lagna. Shrada yoga is in 8th bhava from the 9th bhava from Navamsha Lagna, which shows the weakness of the 9th bhava. 9th bhava from Navamsha Lagna shows physical relation with Guru, which means that Shrada yoga is very sensitive point in a relation with Guru.
Vimsottari Dasa (started from Moon): Chan MD: 2002-01-26 - 2012-01-26

In order to have Diksha Mantra again, he needed to came to Puri and wait for Guru’s Antar Dasa. When he was in Delhi, on his way to Puri, he got news about serious illness of the father and he had to go back in America. Shrada yoga in 4th bhava in Navamsha is the 8th bhava from the 9th, fathers weakness and sickness. Bhatrukaraka in 9th bhava from Karakamsha show that native honestly want Diksha Mantra but whenever he go for it, Shrada yoga is activated. Remedy measures in this case is, first we look who is stronger, Shani or Rahu and because the Shani is in own sign, native should worship for a year Shani with mantra Kurma avatar: Om Namo Bhagavate Akuparaya.

Case 3: Obstacles because of Pasaca Yoga Male born 7. August 1963 in 21:15:40 (5.30 EAST)
In this case, in the 9th bhava from Karakamsha there is Pasaca yoga (Mangal-Rahu yuti) . Native’s Guru told to him that he mustn’t drive in those days, but the native drive motorcycle and had crash. Mangal is in Parivathana yoga with Shukra (represent the vehicle) and Shukra is very afflicted. Surya, Bhatrukaraka has very good position in the 5th bhava from Karakamsha Lagna which also shows that the native truly want Diksha Mantra. Native got Gayatri Mantra (Surya) in Puri, because of the strenght and aspect of Surya (Guru Devata) on 9th bhava from Karakamsha by rashi drishti and on 9th bhava from Navamsha Lagna by graha drishti and also because of Surya’s placement in the fifth bhava. When it is in the 9th bhava Shrada or Pasaca Yoga, native can have Diksha Mantra only in the place of Pilgrimage.

Great role for getting Diksha Mantra, plays Bhatru Karaka, apropos Guru Devata in chart. If Bhatru Karaka aspecting Karakamsha Lagna, native want to get Diksha Mantr and if aspecting 9th bhava from Karakamsha, native will get Diksha Mantra even if don’t want it. Only in the cases when Bhatru Karaka aspecting 9th hava from Karakamsha Lagna, Guru want to give us a Mantra by himself, otherwise, we must ask for it. Bhatru Karaka show also what kind of knowledge Guru want to give to Shishya. By connecting karakatvas of the Grahas we can see what our Guru is doing for us. If Bhatru Karaka is Surya, then we will get Supreme knowledge from our Guru, if it is Chandra – Guru will teach us about feelings and emotions, if Bhatru Karaka is Mangal – indicates Ahimsa principles11, if it is Budha – most important lesson will be the Satya12, when it is Guru – it will show highest dharmic principles, for Shukra it relation with the others, Guru wili remove the suffering from the Shishya if Bhatru Karka is Shani. If it is Rahu – Guru will remove all the sins and if it is Ketu – Guru will lead you straight to Moksha. Also Rashi where is Bhatru Karaka Navamsha chart or it’s trine or the 7th bhava from it, if it stronger can show the Lagna of the Guru. We can see this in the next example: Case 4 Male born 1. February 1969. in 5:27:03 (1:00 East)

Here there is one more case, where is Rahu Bhatru Karaka, placed in Navamsha Lagna, aspecting Karakamsha Lagnu, which shows that the native want Diksha Mantra. Dispositor of Bhatru Karaka is Budh, who has Rashi Drishti on the 9th bhava. Guru Devata (Rahu) shows that the Guru is a stranger, and that is foreign culture. We already said that the place of Bhatru Karaka in Navamsha chart will show Guru. In this case, native has initiation in Transcendental Meditation, whose promoter is His Holiness Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. HH Maharishi is born with Makar Lagna, which is in trine with Kanya where is the Bhatru Karaka of the native.
Every soul is destined to be perfect and every living Being will, in the came
to state of illumination. Whatever we are now is the result of acts and thought in the past, whatever we shall be in the future it will be the result of what we think and do now. But formation of our future don't exclude reception aid from the outside, to the contrary, that aid is, in the most
cases, absolutely necessary13.
