Out of the three drekkanas in a rasi or sign only one drekkana is Superior or Uttamma. The following are the Uttamadrekkanas:
1. Chara Rasi(Movable Sign)- First Drekkana will become Uttama Drekkana 2. Sthira Rasi(fixed sign)-Second drekkana will become Uttama drekkana 3. Ubhaya Rasi(Dual) sign- Third drekkana will become Uttama Drekkana.
The aforesaid drekkanas contain a Vargothama Pada (1pada out of three) and other two padas of theUttamadrekkana are classified as parivarthana padas. The parivarthana padas are next in importance to vargothama pada. It is significant to note that the places 1,5,and 9 are important in a chart and have to be scrutinised for predictions. Please note here that first pada of chara rasi and 5th pada of sthira rasi and 9th pada of ubhaya rasi has become vargothama padas.How to identify parivathana padas: In a chara rasi, two padas immediately succeeding the vargothama pada are parivarthana padas. In sthira rasi-the preceeding one and succeeding one of the vargothama pada are parivarthana padas. In Ubhaya rasi two padas preceeding the vargothama pada are parivarthana padas.When a Naksatra pada exchanges its place with another naksatra pada is called parivarthana pada, like Rohini 1st pada exchanges with Aswini2nd pada-so they are called parivarthana padas.
These principles are basically based on Budha Naadi. Meena Naadi(Naadi Jyothisha) of Sri RG Row (Meena1)& Sri.NVRaghavachary (Meena2)3 and Meena2 naadi of Sri NVRaghavachary (Meena2) were based on the Combination of Budhanaadi , Sugarperunadi and Stellar principles based on Satyachareeya. Basically Meena2 (PSA)4 principles are wonderful prediction tools and also thought provoking.

Analysing Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi’s horoscope using Uttamadrekkana concept:
DOB:30-12-1879,TOB:1:15 AM Lat: 9.50 N Long:78.15 E
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi (December 30, 1879 – April 14, 1950), was a Hindu spiritual master. Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi maintained that the purest form of his teachings was the powerful
silence which radiated from his presence and quieted the minds of those attuned to it. He gave verbal teachings only for the benefit of those who could not understand his silence (or, perhaps, could not understand how to attain the silent state).] His verbal teachings were said to flow from his direct experience of Atman as the only existing reality when asked for advice, he recommended Self enquiry as the fastest

path to Moksha5. Though his primary teaching is associated with Advaita philosophy, and Jnana marga, he recommended Bhakti yoga to those he saw were fit for it, and gave his approval to a variety of paths and practices.

Ketu Gemini Punarvasu 2 Uttamadrekkana
Name, fame, status, life style etc of a person are depending upon the Stellar strength of the horoscope. Here Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi lagna lord Venus is in the naksatra of Vishaka whose lord Jupiter has attained Vargottama Uttamadrekkana position. When lagna gets strength and attains Uttamma drekkana status, that native will become very popular and attains prominence in their respective fields.. Bhagavan
Sri Ramana Maharishi is very well worshiped and Universal Guru. Mano karaka Moon, who attained the
status of Vargottama Uttamadrekkana and also her star lord Jupiter attained Vargottama Uttamadrekkana. This makes him very strong in mind also pushed him to dhyana and he practicised meditation and could go into deep meditation that enabled him to see the God through his manosakthi. Jupiter who indicates Brahmagnana or divine knowledge has attained Uttamadrkkena and posited in 5th house and lagnathipathi Venus is posited in the 2nd house in the star of Jupiter making the connection to 1st,2nd, 3rd , 5th and 6th making Bhagavan Sri Ramana maharishi to preach spirituality, interacting with devotees and clearing their doubts and guiding them to bhakthi and to human service.
5 Moksha‐liberation from birth and death cycle
5th house is the house of love and affection, Jupiter’s occupation in 5th house with the status of Vargottama Uttamadrekkana had made him to love every one and show lot of affection towards everybody. . Jupiter karaka for spirituality had attained Uttamadrekkana status, hence made him a spiritual leader /preacher of the highest order. His guidance had helped so many people to get the taste of spirituality.
Mercury the lord of 9th and 12th houses is in Uttamadrekkana and also it is in its own star Jesta. Mercury is the karaka for intelligence and counselling and makes the native to master in sastras and occult sciences.
Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi had followed dharmic path and given counselling and attracted people
and guided ( 12th house) them to get liberation(moksha). Saturn and Jupiter are main karakas for Philosophy, preaching , spiritualism and mass contact programmes . Here Saturn is in the star of Revati; note that the Mercury had attained Uttamadrekkana status. Hence the karakathwas of Saturn are strengthened.
Here we can note that every planet and bhava had connection or attained the status as Uttamadrekkana and hence Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi is Universal Guru and have millions of followers. I am blessed to analyse Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharishi’s horoscope with the Uttamadrekkana6 concept established by my father late Sri NV Raghavachary (Meena2).
Jai Meena2
