Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 Dear Ila Devi DAsi, u have summed up a good line and yes pl keep posting some on and off with such apt analogies thanks prashant Ila devi dasi MVS <ila_dd_mvs > wrote: Dear Jagdish It seems you are feeling despondent at the suffering going on in the world….have you read any spiritual books? When I was younger I felt just like you – I felt God is cruel… but now I have another understanding….every individual is entirely responsible for his or her own fate, and suffer or enjoys in this life according to deeds performed in the last life or also in the present one. Collectively by God’s arrangement a group of people with similar karma may be born in a certain area or country, thus they may all be fairly affluent or suffer a great deal (poverty). We each have to learn our lesson and change! Here is a quote on some karmic reactions from a book: In this age of Kali the propensity for mercy is almost nil. Consequently there is always fighting and wars between men and nations. Men do not understand that because they unrestrictedly kill so many animals, they also must be slaughtered like animals in big wars. This is very much evident in the Western countries. In the West, slaughterhouses are maintained without restriction, and therefore every fifth or tenth year there is a big war in which countless people are slaughtered even more cruelly than the animals. Sometimes during war, soldiers keep their enemies in concentration camps and kill them in very cruel ways. These are reactions brought about by unrestricted animal-killing in the slaughterhouse and by hunters in the forest. Proud, demoniac persons do not know the laws of nature, or the laws of God. Consequently, they unrestrictedly kill poor animals, not caring for them at all. What to speak of people who murdered or tortured someone in their past life! Karma is like a seed that you plant that grows into branches with many fruits. So one terrible deed can cause a lot of suffering, but the good thing is that one good deed can cause a lot of happiness in future…. There is a lot more to be said on the subject, but I’ll leave it at that. Astrology analyses karma. Actually it is not the planets that CAUSE our karma, but OUR KARMA that is reflected in the planets at the time of our birth. Please read some spiritual books – I can recommend some if you wish.

We are just having conversation where we can see beyond "Astrology" On the other side of the astrology, its dark. Its scary. You are right. We are scared of "Unknown" that is in future. And this is the reason we believe in God and "pray" him. Isnt it God a "demon" because you never know when he will show his wrath on you ? There is no security in life. You are walking down the street and a drunk-truck driver comes from behind and thats it. Spend rest of life on wheel-chair. The game is over. lol... "May be almighty god can show mercy on we humans (rats) and we can spend next year without earthquakes, hurricanes , floods and wars" Best Jagdish K Gopu <kgopu_24 (AT) (DOT) co.uk> wrote: dear Mr.jagadish, I have been reading the mails on the above topic. It appears that u have given ur views in a most explosive manner. All of us have to accept that every individual cannot be a doctor, computer specialist, legal luminary, or scientist or masters/rulers of the country. Similairly astrology is just a branch which deals with the effect of celestial bodies on this planet and only people who have a passion for it specialises or some enters into this ocean of divine knowledge to get a feel of it. Coming to the predictions given by Sri Prashant it is good to note that it has happened and it can happen only when ur efforts are there and mere predictions may not yield the results without efforts. He has given u the ideal time for ur effort to fructify into positive results. Finally every human being lives on hopes and when failures in life crushes him he clings to some branch where he can rescue himself and minimise the damage and sometimes that branch becomes learned astrologers. Even a non believer of astrology will like to know abt his future because there is always a constant fear which is deep seated in the minds of every human. If this fear isnt there the individual becomes a demon. finally I appreciate ur outburst on the above topic, a simple analysis will tell us that it is basically due to sukla paksha ie today it is full moon and moon has a greatest effect on the minds of every creature in this planet. good luck, k.gopu ________ Everyone is raving about the all-new Mail beta. http://new.mail.
