Ramana Maharshi
Venkataraman Iyer
Advaita teacher who, at sixteen, underwent a spontaneous confrontation with death that he described as dissolving the sense of being a separate person. He left for Arunachala and stayed the rest of his life, teaching mostly in silence and answering questions with the single instruction to ask who is asking.

The chart
Lahiri ayanāṁśa · whole-sign houses · mean nodes
No ascendant is shown, and that is not a limitation of this page
The ascendant travels the entire zodiac in a day, so a date without an hour does not determine it — nor any house, since houses are counted from it. Software that shows you one here has assumed a time, usually noon, and has not told you. Jade would rather show you less and have all of it be true.
Settled by the date alone
| Sun | Sagittarius | Purva Ashadha |
|---|---|---|
| Mars | Aries | Bharani |
| Mercury | Scorpio | Jyeshtha |
| Jupiter | Aquarius | Shatabhisha |
| Venus | Scorpio | Vishakha |
| Saturn | Pisces | Revati |
| Rahu | Sagittarius | Purva Ashadha |
| Ketu | Gemini | Punarvasu |
Changed sign during the day — both are possible

A missing time is a question, not a dead end
This is exactly what rectification is for. Add maharshi to your own workspace with the dated events of their life and Jade will sweep the day, rank the candidate times by the classical rules each one satisfies, and tell you which rules actually did the ranking and which fired for every candidate and therefore separated nothing. How rectification works
