The 108 steps of the Lunar Mansions: The pathway of the Vedic Devatas

Nakshatra is a unit of measure of space. The smaller the unit the more precise the prediction.

“The nakshatras are the abodes of the 27 gods delegated with the duties of guarding and guiding the cosmic and solar evolutions.”  from Nakshatra by K.T. Shubhakaran

An online course that explores the effects on the deeper nature and psychology of an individual by understanding each Nakshatra, it’s pada and it’s deity. The 27 nakshatras have 4 parts or padas - the 4 (aims of life)  known as Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha.

This teaching of the padas we are presenting is found in Ravana Samhita, taught to Ravana by his grandfather, Sage Pulastya, one of the Saptarishis (the forefathers, the 7 sages) in the first. (time cycle)
