Narada Purana — Purva Bhaga, Shloka 86

Jyotiṣa-saṅgraha: Varga-vibhāga, Bala-nirṇaya, Garbha-phala, Āyuḥ-gaṇanā

Devanagari script

चंद्रास्तसुखगः पापैर्मातुः पीडां समादिशेत् । जीर्णोद्धृतं गृहं मंदे सृजि दग्धं न वा विधौ ॥ ८६ ॥

Transliteration

caṃdrāstasukhagaḥ pāpairmātuḥ pīḍāṃ samādiśet | jīrṇoddhṛtaṃ gṛhaṃ maṃde sṛji dagdhaṃ na vā vidhau || 86 ||

Translation

Se a Lua, corrompida por influências pecaminosas, entra numa condição de ocaso (inauspiciosa), isso indica aflição para a mãe. E quando Saturno está fraco, indica-se uma casa envelhecida e depois reparada—ou é queimada pelo fogo, ou não perdura devidamente conforme o destino.

FAQs

It frames worldly suffering (especially harm to one’s mother and instability of one’s home) as karmically signaled through graha-doṣa, encouraging dharmic living and śānti (pacificatory) conduct rather than fatalism.

While the verse is primarily Jyotiṣa-based, its implied teaching supports Bhakti indirectly: recognizing misfortune as a call to humility, prayer, and righteous restraint, one turns to the Lord for steadiness and inner detachment.

Jyotiṣa (a Vedāṅga): the verse gives predictive rules linking Candra affliction to maternal distress and Śani weakness to damage/instability of dwellings, used for timing caution and performing śānti measures.
