Guest guest Posted November 22, 2004 Report Share Posted November 22, 2004 Dear All, I was watching a debate on the episode of Jayendra Swamy. One speaker put up this argument: Some of the most corrupt politicians were saved because some astrologers performed shantis for them. In fact he was putting an argument that they were saved just because of the divine namasmarana performed by astrologer on behalf of them. Jayendra is much better than all those dirty politicians. Why the same is not working in Jayendra's favor? Can any one comment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 10, 2007 Report Share Posted June 10, 2007 The answer to what you say is simple: some of his opponents is more effective. In this context i would again quote that astounding text from Atharvaveda: 1. Whenever yonder person in his thought, and with his speech, offers sacrifice accompanied by oblations and benedictions, may Nirriti (the goddess of destruction), allying herself with death, smite his offering before it takes effect! 2. May sorcerers, Nirriti, as well as Rakshas, mar his true work with error! May the gods, despatched by Indra, scatter (churn) his sacrificial butter; may that which yonder person offers not succeed! 3. The two agile supreme rulers, like two eagles pouncing down, shall strike the sacrificial butter of the enemy, whosoever plans evil against us! 4. Back do I tie both thy two arms, thy mouth I shut. With the fury of god Agni, have I destroyed thy oblation. 5. I tie thy two arms, I shut thy mouth. With the fury of terrible Agni have I destroyed thy oblation. DO YOU THINK THAT SUCH INCANTATIONS ARE NOT USED TODAY? WHATEVER YOU DO, WILL NOT SUCCEDE WHEN YOU CANNOT DEFEAT YOUR OPPONENT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
