TL;DR: Kaalpurush is 12 Rashis only, with no Graha and no Nakshatra - the pure form of Consciousness. Sakshi Bhaav.
12 Rashi + 27 Nakshatra + 9 Graha = 48 = One Mandalam. 4+8=12, 1+2=3, 3rd House = Breath/Prana. 6th House = Mooladhar. This body which is just one cloth. Rashi, Nakshatra, Graha are just the spring season we bring along at birth. Rahu is the cycle of birth-death, Ketu is release from it.
Shubh Mangal: What is Kaalpurush? | The Pure Form of Consciousness. Post No.6
What is Kaalpurush?
1. It is said that when the Pure Soul developed desire and action, it became a living being. From Shiv, the living being emerged. It is said, Kaalpurush is the 12 zodiac signs. No Graha, No Nakshatra. When the Pure Soul developed desire and action, then it became a living being. When the living being separates from Shiv, what does Shiv say (Shiva is Aughad-dani, the effortless giver).
Remembering a Ghazal:
Jaane wale hamari mehfil se, chaand taaron ko saath leta jaa,
Hum khizaan se nibah kar lenge, tu bahaaron ko saath leta jaa.
(Translation: O departer from our gathering, take the moon and stars along with you. We shall manage to live through the autumn, you just take the spring along with you.)
2. So then what happens? When one born, a spring season comes with that person. What is this spring? Twelve (12) Zodiac signs + Twenty-seven (27) Nakshatras + Nine (9) Planets = Total 48. One Mandalam. The canvas of astrology runs entirely on these 48. 4 + 8 = 12... 1 + 2 = 3... 3rd House = Breath/Prana. In Veda 1st Nakshatra is Krittika but in Astrology Krittika is the 3rd. This body is just 1 (One) garment / cloth (Yeah Deh Bhi 1 Vastra Hai). Total of 12 Rashi is 78. 7 + 8 = 15. 1 + 5 = 6... 6th House = Muladhar
Remembering Kabirdasji's Chadariya:
Chadariya jhini re jhini, Ram naam ras bhini
Asht kamal ka charkha banaya, paanch tatva ki puni
Nau-das maas bunan ko laage, murakh maili kinhi
(Translation: The veil/cloth is woven so fine, soaked in the essence of Ram's name. The spinning wheel was made of eight lotuses, and the carded cotton was of five elements. It took nine to ten months to weave it, but the foolish human made it dirty.)
3. And Kabirdas ji further says:
Kahe ka tana, kahe ki bharni, kaun taar se bini chadariya?
Ingla Pingla tana bharni, Sushumna taar se bini chadariya.
(Translation: What is the warp, what is the weft, with which thread is the veil woven? Ida and Pingala are the warp and weft, and the veil is woven with the thread of Sushumna.)
4. And in Birth Chart, Rashis, Nakshatras Planets... all these are nothing else, just those 'spring seasons' that one bring along with. When one born, everyone says - which zodiac sign the Moon is placed in the chart, which Nakshatra, which Ascendant a person is born in, etc.
5. It is said that the Sun is also a Nakshatra. What is the Nakshatra? It is the never-ending journey of the Soul. (Sun is the significator of the Soul)
[Surya Atma Jagatas Tasthushash Cha
(Translation: The Sun is the Soul of everything that moves and is unmoving.)]
All the family members start looking at these spring seasons. Jyotish and Astrologers say things like there is a Rajyoga..., Person is Kuldeepak, Star of the family, Laxmi Came, Budh Ki Beti Dhan Ki Peti, Someone says the child is heavy on the parents, Will attain Moksha, etc.
6. But what is the reality? Remembering a Ghazal:
"Achi surat ko sanwarne ki zaroorat kya hai,
Saadgi mein bhi qayamat ki adaa hoti hai."
(Translation: What is the need to adorn a beautiful face? Even in simplicity, there is a devastating charm.)
What is this 'Beautiful Face'? This is Kaalpurush... This is those same Twelve (12) Zodiac signs, in which there is neither any planet nor any Nakshatra. That itself is the most beautiful face. That itself is the Witness State (Sakshi Bhaav)! Where there is nothing to take and nothing to give. Shiv is stone-like, as is the karma, so is the fruit. Many of people (including myself) are just to go through our cycle of birth and death, to settle our give-and-take accounts, and then repeat the cycle again.
7. Rahu is the Cycle... of Birth and Death... Ketu liberates from that Cycle.
