Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Dear Lucia you <<Thanks for replaying to my mail enlightening and instructing about the wonderful Jyotish. Science, as in the beginning we novices need support as much as we can have. I also noted the explanation about the janma rasi and janma nakshatra>> me Thanks for your nice remarks. Support is always given to the sincere soul by our visible or invisible gurus. At a point in time and space i have been given the opportunity to be in New Age festivals. Imagine a room 5 X 10 m where some 20 tables are arranged by the coordinator. Adverts have been display by the media and some 100 to 400 people come to visit the festival. In each table there are tarot readers, clarivoyants, massagists, palm readers, or shops selling rocks, herbs, homeopathic medicines etc. I usually get a table beside the main door because i am a friend of the coordinators. I have my computer to facilitate my calculations. Many of the visitants do not know what they want. They just go to expend some money in having "fun or a reading by a fortune teller". People in London expend more money in average than in the north where they are more poor. You can see their faces of bewilderment when they come in into the room. Nice soft music and smell of incense greet them and soften their minds. Some of them will go to seat and wait for a reading in front of the table that has more people seating and waiting. They think that the more popular table is the best reader. Others will just walk around to see each table before leaving the premises. Some people will come to my table and ask....."What is vedic astrology? I have never heard of it" or "What do you give? Do you just tell me from a computer?", or "I do not have time to wait, can you tell me a bit about me?. Or, "can you recommend a clarivoyant, i want to get a message from my death gran-mother". Those that have a reading from me may say "oh this is vedic astrology" . Or "You are confusing me, all my life i thought to be an Aries and now you are telling me that i am Cancer", "What signs should i ead in the papers? Aries or Cancer?. Or "i feel better to be an Aries" or "i feel better to be a Cancerian". Or, "Nothing of that sort happens around the dates you mention". For this sometimes i know that either they are lying or that they do not remember at the time. Sometimes, people come back to me saying "I did remember later and you are right". In this way you learn about people's intentions. There are some clarivoyants that are not clarivoyants, they are just milking people of their money. You find all sorts of people, people with big egos or people with small egos, etc. I know about a guy that was a very good clarivoyant. He was was afraid to go in public (on stage) in case of losing his contacts or powers and being left without speech. In time he became involved in black arts (negative arts) and started a group to feed his false ego and exploit or harrass the innocent. In time he got his karma back and lost everything. To the sincere student, jyotish reveals itself and in time when you are open and ready, you will get the inspiration to help others. At present in the west we may not see many jyotishis but our services will increase soon because we have the tools available. At present we have to cope with a missing information about jyotish, competition from other sources of "fortune telling", or from those misrepresenting jyotish. But soon the balance will be re-established by Krishna because that is His Divine will. Hope that this helps Natabara Das Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
