<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="color: magenta;">Hello Everyone:<br />I started this blog in the year 2012 when I was going through a troublesome phase in my life. I was going to Darjeeling from Siliguri in a bus when someone told to keep a fast on Thursday so as to Please Lord Brihaspati. I rubbished it because I never believed in such things at that time. Nevertheless, I began to keep a fast because my life was going downhill, and hoping against hope that things would improve from where I stood. Yes, I began to fast mainly because I did not have a baby and to strengthen my financial conditions. At that time, I read all the stories regarding Brihaspati and memorized the different mantras, mainly "Om Brim Brihaspatey Nama". My intention of writing this blog was to help other people who were suffering, not suffering but going through difficulties like me so that they did not have to waste their time searching in the net for Brihaspati mantras, Brihaspati stories, Brihaspati arati etc. I wanted all these things to be available under one roof. With that in mind I started this blog. I have a baby daughter now. Hey, I just want to tell my readers that our difficulties in life do not end after getting married or having kids or earning money. I feel that both happiness and difficulties go hand in hand. By the way, I started this blog in 2012 and after writing for some time, I completely forgot about it and this October something made me check my blog that I had written 4 years ago. To my surprise, it was still there. Around 36,000 people had viewed my blog, not bad I thought. Dear readers I am not all good at making an attractive blog, but I will give it a try and hopefully, I will get all your support.</span><br /><span style="color: magenta;">Thank you</span><br /><br /></span></b></div>

In the higher sense Jupiter is the divine grace, which can fulfill all of our needs without our seeking. He gives religious merit and spiritual beneficence. The other most important aspect of Jupiter is that he gives us true knowledge and wisdom as opposed to information based intelligence, which is the function of Mercury.</div>

The power of Mantras & Shlokas has been acknowledged since time immemorial. A Mantra can consist of a powerful word or a combination of words and can be used for self realization, for freedom from worries, to fulfill one's desires, to ward off the effects of malefic planets, to bring you success, peace and contentment -- the range is truly vast. You can choose for yourself.</div>

<span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">In the solar system, Guru, Brihaspati or
Jupiter as his popularly known occupies the second largest position after the
Sun. Jupiter is revered as celestial
preceptor of the Gods. Worship of Brihaspati
or Guru (JUPITER) Devata results in a cure from ailments affecting the stomach
and helps one to ward off his/her sins, helps him / her in gaining strength,
valor, longevity etc. He grants the boon
of fatherhood to the childless, good education. Thursdays are considered to be
the best day for the worship of Jupiter. Following is the katha (story) which
is recited by the devotee, who is fasting and praying to Brihaspati Dev on
Thursdays --</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Once Lord Indra, surrounded by many gods,
Rishis, Kinnaras and Gondharvas sat on his throne in a proud mood. As guru Brihaspati reached there all of them
except Indra stood up to pay respect. Indra used to pay obedience to his guru
regularly but he showed discourtesy at that time. Brihaspati felt bad and left
his palace. As Brihaspati left the
palace, Lord Indra realized his mistake and repented over his action. He felt that all his luxurious possessions
were due to his guru blessings. Guru
anger will turn it to dust.</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Indra decided to go to Brihaspati and tender
apology for his action. It may pacify
his anger. He went to Brihaspati. Brihaspati intuited that Indra was coming to
his Ashram. He avoided meeting out of
anger and disappeared immediately. Lord
Indra returned home disappointed. A
demon god Vrishvarsha, sensed this situation and went to his guru Shukracharya.
He begged his guru’s permission to attack Indrapuri, the kingdom of Lord Indra
in those circumstances. Shukracharya
permitted him. The demon god surrounded Indrapuri and made a sudden attack. In the absence of Guru Brihaspati blessings, the
gods lost all battles one after the other.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">After his defeat, the gods went to Lord Brahma
and related the whole story. He begged
for safety and asked for some strategy. Lord
Brahma said, You have not done good by disgracing Brihaspati. Anyway go to Vishwaroopa the learned son of
Twashta. Request him to become your
priest. His blessings can save you. They went to Twashta and sought his blessings.
Twashta said, By becoming your priest, I
do not want to lessen my virtues but you go to my son Vishwaroopa. He will oblige you by accepting your request
for priesthood.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">All the gods went to Vishwaroopa and requested
him to become their family priest for performing Yajna. He accepted their request. By Vishwaroopa’s
grace, demon Vrishvarsha was defeated and Lord Indra regained his kingdom. Lord Indra was happy. He implored Vishwaroopa to perform a special Yajna
for further gains. Vishwaroopa agreed. Vishwaroopa had three mouths. With one mouth
he sucked the juice of Sompalli a special creeper. From the second mouth he used to drink wine. He used his third mouth for eating meals.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">Vishwaroopa started performing Yajna. The
demon gods were frightened. They thought
a plan to undo the Yajna effects. One of
the demon god went to Vishwaroopa and implored, Honorable Sir, do you know that
you belong to demon genealogy from your mother’s side. Your mother is the daughter of a demon god. While performing Yajna kindly make some
offerings in the names of demon gods for their happiness. Vishwaroopa agreed to his request. He made
some silent offerings to demon gods so that no one may hear it. The result was that the Yajna’s advantage was divided
between dieties and demon gods.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">When Lord Indra came to know the treachery, he
beheaded Vishwaroopa in a state of extreme anger. One of his mouth from which he took wine,
turned into a black bee. The second
which he used for sucking Sompalli juice became a pigeon while the third one
used for taking meals was transformed into a partridge.</span><br />

to sacrilege, the murder of a Brahman. All
the gods made repentance for one year but it had no effect on Indra. They approached Lord Brahma for seeking some
remedy to redeem Indra from the sacrilege. Lord Brahma accompanied by Brihaspati went to
Indra. He divided the sacrilege four
parts.</span><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif;"><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The first part was given to the earth. As a result the earth became uneven. Some of its portion became barren but as a
boon he said that the earth would develop power to fill the khuds automatically.<span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>The
second part of the sacrilege was given to the trees and as a result they began
to ooze gum but as a boon he said that the gum of guggul - bdellium olibanum -
will be treated pure and they would have the power to rebud from their roots though
their upper portion may be dried up.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The third part of the sacrilege was given to
the woman folk and so they experience menstruation. As a boon he blessed them
to the pure or chaste on the fourth day and capable to give birth to children.</span><br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">The fourth portion. of the sacrilege was given
to water. As a result it is covered with
aquatic plant or Shaivaal. As a boon the
object in which it is added gains weight.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial;">In this way Lord Brahma freed Indra from the
heinous crime by dividing it into four places. Who so ever reads or listens this story is
blessed by Brihaspati.</span><br />
