Guest guest Posted May 18, 2005 Report Share Posted May 18, 2005 Hare Krishna Dear Dilip. This is a very important topic. At this years West Coast conference we will look at this whole topic of our human sufferings in various ways in depth whether it be through ill health, enemies,mental sufferings,finance,etc -and so please get the cds when they are ready.Im sure many fine lecture papers will come out of it as well, and end up in JD. (Perhaps you can give some chart data for us to look at here for now, in the case you mentioned ) I wonder the same things about karmas.,. I think most answers can be found in Sri Bhagavad-Gita. Whether this is present lifetime karmas or coming from previous lifetimes.In the scriptures it states that the seeds of karmic reactions and the laws of karma are so extensive they cant completly be understood. In this lifetime we can be experiencing some bad karmas from many lifetimes back. As astrologers and humans on a spiritual path it is in every souls best interest to understand our bad karmas from the past and also understand what causes bad karma to avoid in future. As astrologers One example is understanding the concept of badhaka. We can help the people who come to us understand their karma so that they are not constantly falling into a cycle of birth and death, but instead can move towards moksha.In my opinion that is why Jyotish is the eye of the Vedas. Most of the time people want advice on how to IMPROVE their material life but could care less about their spiritual developement and the AK. IN the Bhagavad -Gita is says that 4 kinds of pious people render some devotional service,(or make some offerings to GOd) 1) those who are looking for knowledge of the Absolute 2) those that are suffering 3) those that are looking for a wife,wealth 4)those that are curious. Doesnt that look very familiar? Why do people approach an astrologer? ------------------------------ another side Astrologically, We can look at whether coming from 6th house 8th house and moveable , fixed or dual signs tells us how easy to do something about it.Astrology does give us some clues by looking at the subtler varga divisions.We can look at rasi,navamsa, D-3,D-10,D-60,etc. for best clues to see were we were and what actions we are likely to take in this lifetime.And thus determine what karmas good and bad we create for future births. One interesting clue Sanjay mentioned in reference to Moola dasa (a scheme used to see the times when curses and evils will fructify) He said that anyone thinking of taking Sannyasa should check with MOola dasa scheme as it shows karmas that are destined to be felt and " burned up " in this lifetime. Only after the person has gone through first round,Moola(cycle) and cleared his accumulated past debt for this lifetime should be take on the vows and life as a sannyasis.It is also very bad for a person to commit sins while living life of sannyasis.So it is important to examine the chart carefully of anyone choosing such a path. If you study many people charts you can see they dont even end the first Moola Dasa cycle till very late in life. That is one good reason why sannyas shouldnt be taken till older age. Sanjay knows many things and let us pray he continues to be like an artesian well of knowledge for us. All the best, Lakshmi Kary from Garuda Purana- (something like this) " You always get what you have coming to you, therefore I regret nothing and nothing astronishes me ,because what destiny has given me no one can take away " varahamihira , Dilip <drdilip@s...> wrote: > Hare Rama Krishna > > ******************* > > Pranam Guruji, > > We live in a hostile world, sorrounnded by jealousy and violence.

A person well-known to me asked, " why such a baseless allegation has been thrust upon me? Why this person without any apparent reason starts behaving like an enemy? why that person, whom I even do not know tells in a public forum that I use to take money illegally from public. This is blatant lie. " > > I was thinking of that honest person. What karma of his past life is now giving him ill fame ? > > Would you please tell me how to see ill fame in a chart? What is the role of Lagna lord, 10th lord in it? What is the role Rahu, and other malefics? and the role of Arudha Lagna? How to see the period of it in Vimsottari, Moola and Narayan Dasa? What is the role of transit in triggering the event? I know, this is a very big topic in itself, but please be kind on me to give a broad outline of the subject. I honestly hope that you wont disappoint me <smile>. > > with warm regards > Your sisya > Dilip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
