VEDIC NAKSHATRA WISDOM SERIES

Vedic Nakshatra Wisdom Series | Mula Wisdom 19

Gita speaks within, Nakshatra reflects outside.

In Bhagavad Gita 2.6, Arjuna expresses deep confusion

about what is right and what is wrong, unable to decide his path.

This reflects a complete breakdown of clarity and identity.

This is where Mula Nakshatra becomes the bridge

the energy of destruction, roots, and deep transformation.

Ruled by Nirriti, Mula represents the force that uproots illusion.

It teaches that before true growth,

false foundations must be destroyed.

When everything collapses,

the truth hidden at the root begins to emerge.

Mula teaches us:

destruction is not the end,

it is the beginning of truth.

Roots reveal.

Transformation begins.
