This write up is sourced from the English translation of the book on Vishnu
Sahasranama by the internationally well-known Dr. Arulamallige
Parthasarathy for his scholarship and erudition in different aspects of Indian
Culture. With the Coronavirus pandemic creating a scare all over the world,
we felt that the recitation/hearing/understanding of Vishnu Sahasranama can
work out as a kavacha or an armor against not only the Covid-19 but also the
thousands of viruses that are there all over us all around the globe, without our
being aware of it.
Before we understand the power of Vishnu Sahasranama, we should first talk
about Dr. Aralumallige Parthasarathy. He has widely travelled and written
many books on Indian Culture. Though his specialization is in Dasa Sahitya,
he has extensive knowledge of different facets of our culture. His books on
assorted subjects of Vedic wisdom make very interesting reading. He has

Sahasranama.Haridasa Sahitya and many of these are available on audio
cassettes and CDs. He has received many awards and laurels from across the
world for his encyclopedic knowledge and wisdom.
As a member of the Karnataka Sahitya Academy from 1992 to 1995 and as a
member of the TTD Dasa Sahitya Project from 1986 to 1996, his contribution
has been immense and notable. Dr. Parthasarathy has arranged Samuhika
Parayana (mass recital) of Vishnu Sahasranama across the world.

The world is shocked by the outbreak of the epidemic which began in China. The fear has
escalated as it is being declared as a global pandemic. It is a major outbreak of disease on
large scale after SARS that started in China in late November 2002.
We can attempt to analyze the outbreak using the horoscope of Republic of China as birth
chart of the nation, with 1/10/1949 as the primary chart. Since the COVID-19 outbreak
began in late November and December 2020, we can use the lunar chart to establish a
celestial link to the fearing disease. We can use the Vikari Margashirsha lunar chart which
began on 26/11/2019 at 23: 06 taking Beijing as capital of China and followed by Lunar
chart of Vikari Pusya which began on 26/12/2019 at 13:13 hrs. To support some findings,
Solar ingress into Aries for 2019 can be used too.
What does the lunar chart of Vikari Margashirsha indicate?
The Chart has Leo rising, with Saturn, Jupiter, Venus and Ketu in the 5th house. The worst
malefic for Leo Lagna, Saturn afflicting the 5th house of Purva punya. It also has the
affliction of Ketu. Saturn/Ketu association in the 5th house depicts a curse of previous birth
and normally causes birth with defects.
Does the Vikari Margashirsha lunar month chart show in Kala Chakra Chart?
The first lunar chart Vikari Margashirsha
shows a Kala Chakra, where the planets
transit in the direction of Nirutthi and
Yama. These directions bring about fear,
disaster and death. The direction of Nirutthi
depicts the curse of the Gods. The planets
are in constellation of Mula and
Purvashada. Most of the planets confined to
the South and South-west directions which
depict curse and sorrowful incidents.
Does the Vikari Pushya Kala Chakra show any direction in special link?
Yes! The lunar month of Vikaari Pusya shows
planetary pooling in the direction of North west
which is ruled by Vayu, the wind God and it
depicts wandering, major shift of place and form
of migration. The medical mode of spread of
COVID-19 is through air in the form of droplets
emitted by the carrier or the diseased person.
What are the astrological findings associated
in Republic chart of China?

Naadi Astrology Based Analysis
H. Ramadas Rao
By this time many experienced Astrologers have analysed about this deadly disease COVID-19 and gave their
expert predictions. Even a young boy of 16 also has predicted almost 7 months before about this disease but it got
published very recently. Even the famous Nostradamus has written about this disease in 1551 through his prophesy.
This is only an analysis of this disease as when it started and which planetary combinations have taken part in the
formation of this deadly virus and when it may end.
With the Blessings of Guru Shri R. G. Rao, I am going to analyse the present pandemic disease Covid-19 through
Naadi Astrology principles.
To start with we must know some basic Karakatwas of planets. Here the most important planet in consideration is
Shani whom we consider him for day to day life activities or the Karma of everybody. Ketu is a planet of breaking
anything related to Karma. Ketu is also responsible for the formation of deadly viruses when he gets certain
planetary configuration. Rahu is the planet of communication or spreading the virus. As he is in Mithuna Rashi, it
indicates nose and throat parts of human beings. Dhanus Rashi is the Moola Trikona Rashi of Guru, the Jiva Karaka.
But the time has to come to take over by Ketu. For 2 days from 16/9/2019 to 18/9/2019, Shani was in Retro-
Stambhana. When Shani became direct on 18/9/2019, again he was in Stambhana mode.
So totally Shani was helpless and Ketu, the significator of virus started acting. Now the sign lord of these 2 planets is
Guru and was placed in Vrschika Rashi which is a Keeta Rashi lorded by Kuja. Now if we look at the sign lord of
Guru, Kuja is with Surya in Simha Rashi on 16th of September which gives a suspicion that some country
leader may be involved in this deadly virus production. But Surya was in end of Simha Rashi and next day, he
was about to move to Kanya Rashi lorded by Budha. So, this leader wants to involve in a business through which he
can control the world. Now on the same day, if we look to Chandra’s position it was in Meena Rashi/Pisces sign
ruled by Guru. Thus, Ketu links with Chandra indicating the virus testing was started as Guru, the Jiva Karaka was in
trine to Chandra and also he is the sign lord of Ketu + Shani. Also, Budha, the planet of multiplicity was exalted but
the time has to come to spread this deadly virus. Please note that all planets are held between Ketu and Rahu
forming a perfect Kalamrita Yoga.
As per live science website, the 1st case of known Corona virus was traced back on 17/11/2019.
On this day, Chandra was in Mithuna Rashi along with Rahu and are in trines to Budha (V) + Kuja placed in Tula
Rashi and in Dhanus Rashi, we have Guru + Shani + Ketu. This is the perfect combination of planets for virus
transmission. Guru has just entered Dhanus Rashi indicating Jiva Karaka. Day to day life Karaka Shani has already
crossed Ketu in Dhanus Rashi which indicates Shani has taken the malefic energy of Ketu. Ketu was heading
towards Guru, the Jiva Karaka. But it was kept secret as Shukra was in Keeta Rashi of Vrishcika ruled by Kuja.
On 26/12/2019, there was Annular Solar Eclipse and it occurred on Dhanus Rashi, Moola Nakshatra where
along with Surya and Chandra, Ketu, Budha, and Guru were also in Moola Nakshatra indicating a dreaded
danger to the universe due to Virus outbreak.
