Guest guest Posted April 11, 2003 Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 Dear Rageshwari, Such a nice and warm reply from you. Well, I am a learner too, infact a beginner with too many wierd questions, so I was under the impression that tantric remedies are also based on Gods and Goddesses. I understand from this list that Lal Kitab remedies are not appropriate, but I was referring to ancient tantric remedies written by some current authors. On a personal note, pls don't called me 'ji', I am just 34, I hear too many ji's in my profession and atleast here I would prefer people loving me more, rather than just respecting me. Ofcourse this is my personal opinion and it need not & cannot be imposed on anyone. If I remember, correctly in one of your recent posts, you had mentioned that you are passing through sadesati, Learned Gauranga has mentioned that we can take up a example chart, would you like your chart to be discussed, as it makes more sense to discuss Sadesati when the chart's native is already going through it. I await your response. Warm regards, Sushmita vedic astrology, "rageshwari75" <rageshwari75> wrote: > Dear Sushmitaji, > > I am no scholar and so not an authority on any subject, least in > Jyotish.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2003 Report Share Posted April 11, 2003 Namaste Sushmita ji, One quick comment before I go to sleep: I see some confusion between tantrik and tamasik. Tantrik doesn't necessarily mean tamasik. Tantra is simply a procedure/method/system that is associated with a mantra. Many mantras have some tantra associated with them. While some tantrik methods are highly tamasik and hence avoidable (unless one is in desperation), it is not necessarily true of all. For example, suppose you pray to Vyasa with Praanaayaama with the mantra "[start inhaling]Om Jum Sah [hold breath]Vyam Vyaasadevaaya Namah [start exhaling] Sah Jum Om". Then your praanaayaama or control of breath becomes the tantra that makes the mantra more effective. But is this an undesirable tantra? Of course, not! So don't look down upon all tantras. > On a personal note, pls don't called me 'ji', I am just 34, I am younger than you and so I called you ji. Just trying to make you feel old... :-) May Jupiter's light shine on us, Narasimha > Dear Rageshwari,> > Such a nice and warm reply from you.
