Shrapa and Punya Chakra

Shrapa and Punya Chakra are two crucial areas of Jyotish mainly related to the spiritual side of the subject. Shrapa, generally called curses, are reactions of the weak and vulnerable to misdeeds meted out by those in power and influence. It is an emotional reaction to wrongdoings in the form of shock, deception, verbal, emotional or physical injury, humiliation, sorrow and others. When one misuses power and influence to trouble others, they suffer the wrath of such people in the form of Shrapa. Shrapas cause immense suffering in life and are seen from weak and afflicted Grahas in Kundali. This book aims to cover numerous principles to identify areas of suffering linked to a Shrapa.

Punya Chakra, also called Mrtyu Chakra, is cast at the moment of death of a person. It is an important aspect of Jyotish, generally not covered in mainstream books. It shows the person’s gati (state and destination) after they leave their mortal remains. Sometimes, they suffer in the worldly plane, not getting released from their worldly attachments, while at other times, they suffer the torments of Narakas (hellish realms). When one conducts themselves righteously, they reach higher spiritual realms called Lokas. The whereabouts of the Jivatama are covered along with references from Garuda Purana about the afterlife.
