Each planet signifies certain relationships and qualities: tradition links the Sun with the father and self-respect, and Saturn with service, discipline and working people. Honouring those people and living that quality is the form this remedy takes.
Everyday conduct tied to what the planet signifies: respect for elders, honesty, discipline.
Obeying elders and keeping the mind pure: Praśna Mārga, in the context of adverse transits.
