To a friend,

 

Actually I don't remember your chart at this moment.

 

The fifth house is definitely smart overall, good for navigating,

"getting it", and doing things which are successful in life. It's a very

good house. It makes one bright, but not necessarily dharmic. It relates

to worldly positive qualities. It pays off in this immediate life.

 

But you believe in God. That is key. That is very key, and it is

stressed in the classics. This is not for Atheists. They simply spread

BS with their ideas.

 

The Vedic position is an exit-ing one. Vedic thought leads to

Saintliness and liberation. It does not ultimately promote entanglement.

As much as you are interested in, infatuated by, respectful towards, and

striving towards, goodness in service to all life, to the Divine center,

that much you are Vedic. Whatever your so called religion, color,

country, etc. Vedic is a way of being, a direction.

 

You and I and all have our pros and cons internally, and mentally. You

should not be concerned. You have some blocks, and you have some

openings. Think widely, read the Gita, and let that wavelength in. The

more you let in the broadest wavelengths of thought and acceptance of

the big picture, the more you see the truth. All of us, with our smaller

views, that is ignorance. Like Black verse White, that is local and

caught in a time. We are not that. In 20000000 years where will black

and white be? Unimportant...

 

So seeing very deeply and long term, that promotes the open view. Then

you can see everything rightly, you can see the modes which temporarily

capture the soul, and you read better. You see more widely as you accept

and live more widely. It's hard and long term. So we go easy, we take it

easy, and move forward. The planets are the main parts of God. They

never change. Even if we lived in another dimension, the same energies

would be there. They come from God, the center. All dimensions reflect

the same potencies. These are the parts of God. Wealth, Fame, Strength,

Knowledge, Beauty, and Renunciation. These are the planets. We see it in

all things, just permutations and iterations of the same things folding

into themselves and making seemingly new things...that's why we see

repeating qualities everywhere, though everything seems simultaneously unique.

 

You are very high in life already. You are special. Of this there is no

doubt. So you have to go on as you are. I have no concern as to whether

you are here or there. I am impressed that you are to this point. You

are a somebody because you are trying. You are thinking, working, moving

forward, trying to understand. So you are captured in the highest

matters a human can ponder, and actively, which is the sign of real

progress. Pitta, or fire, is the energy of attempt and progress. It

comes to us because the soul is ready to encounter much and deal with

it. So I know you are high in this Kali Yuga, in America, at this time,

there are not alot like you, like us, so have no doubts. Simply go on

with your nature as you have been.

 

Whether I say or not that you are this or that is unimportant. You will

be the same after mine or anyone's opinion. Each day is a struggle to

embrace the truth and serve it, regardless of what has been said or

heard. You will find this verse in the Gita. That only in delusion do we

care for what others say. After that, we realize fully the truth of the

attempt we are making to serve the good current of Divinity ever

present, and that attempt in us our only concern, and we become

indifferent to all that is seen and heard.

 

I'm lazy, so I'm writing in this way. But also, it's the truth. So when

I'm lazy, the truth comes and helps me to avoid reading a chart! Funny huh?

 

With love and respect, for you,

 

Your soul brother,
