Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 Namaste Alex & Arno. I must disagree that there is an "Overriding" effect of Fate of the parents towards the child. Instead its a mutual fate. Parasara gave the chapter; Evils at birth, for us to look for the Aristha combinations that prevail until the 24th year of birth. Alex is otherwise completely right. But there is no such thing as overriding fate! The child is destined to die at the desired age, whether it be attributed to the parents or others, its still part of its karma. Hence a Pilot cannot override the fate of his passengers, because they also earned these karmic indicators, as does the captain and his passengers. They all chose their fate according to the karmas they must fulfill.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 AUM SRI GURUVE NAMAH Hi Arno! I completely agree with Visti. There is no overriding factor. There will be maraka periods running in the horoscopes of all the passengers died in the plane crash. Nothing in this universe is an accident... all follow some rule. Akala mrityu mean Death (Mrityu) before the actual time (kaala) comes. But here the actual time is not the destined time of native's death but the average longivity of the individual. If the average longivity of person in a place is 60yrs and someone dies at 20th yeat, we say that the individual has dies before time. However, the time we mention here is not the destined time of death but the average time of death of individuals at that place. When people die in accidents, we call the person died with akaala mrityu. However, we must understand, nothing is an accident for an astrologer, who can see the future. These accidets are mere cause of death like other cause such as old age or cardiac arrest.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 Namaste Anantarupa, What was meant by these sentences of mine, was not that the fate of one individual overpowers another, but that the indications in one chart may be overridden by the fate of the parents. My question was whether a chart will always completely reflect the reality, if the exterior factors are not included in the analysis. I am a fatalist and believe that if it is the fate of someone to die or not they will, and everything in nature has a symbiotic relationship in regards to the meanderings of individual and group fates. I am not convinced that the chart alone can give all details without considering the external influences. And there are a few statements in Parasar which seem to indicate otherwise. So in your proposed case, it is possible that the majority of the people flying would have combinations for aerial death, but that a few may not in there charts. Since Parasara says to consider the associations as well as the natal chart, this situation may be more than just hypothetical. regards, Alex J vedic astrology, Arno Holzmann <arno.holzmann@u...> wrote: > Namaste Alex, > > > This passage shows that the fate of others can in situations override > > the destiny indicated by their own natal charts.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 Namaste Visti, Yes, I agree with you completely... the wording I choose was one that was unintentionally misleading. The question that I was proposing was whether the chart is the complete reflection of the karma of the individual allotted to this life, or whether external factors must be looked at in order to understand the karma fully. I have no argument against the fact that the karma of the individual is his own and simulataneously shared with others. This is one of the first rules of Vedic study. What I meant was that the parent influences the child, despite the chart indications of the child. regards, Alex J vedic astrology, "Visti Larsen" <vlarsen@h...> wrote: > Namaste Alex & Arno. > > I must disagree that there is an "Overriding" effect of Fate of the parents > towards the child.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 Namaste. We have enough indicators in the chart to give us a very strong picture of the persons life. I indeed believe that we can predict practically everything from the chart, all it takes is the devotion to keep on participating in the search for this perfect knowledge. So remove all your doubts, and have complete faith in God and Guru, and one day you yourself will be playing with the D-300. Best wishes, Visti. - Alex J vedic astrology Monday, June 25, 2001 7:37 PM [vedic astrology] Re: parents fate overriding destiny of children Namaste Visti,Yes, I agree with you completely... the wording I choose was one that was unintentionally misleading.The question that I was proposing was whether the chart is the complete reflection of the karma of the individual allotted to this life, or whether external factors must be looked at in order to understand the karma fully.
