Why Gemstone Obsession Is Harmful

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

When everything is in harmony – why you want to cause a disturbance?

And this is the greatest tragedy of the human world. People want to interfere – with the flow of life. The ‘river’ flows, and nobody has till date found on what decides – who decides the flow of the river – it simply goes on flowing – whosoever comes is welcomed, the river is not bothered about the disturbances, about who is coming to join and who is leaving – it simply rejoices in its flowing……and that is how life should be! A flow, a flux. Let life flow…..

“Let Life Flow;
don’t interfere.”
-Osho

But people won’t listen! Who wants to listen? Everybody is running – just to do something with the flow of his or her life – and that causes much misery – this interference leads to many problems!

The focus should be on wearing gemstones – as less as possible!

But the MIND won’t listen. The MIND is illusive – the MIND creates many illusions – the astrologer you visit is also following his or her mind and you are also following your mind. The result is misery.

Calculative minds can never reach an effective conclusion. A calculative conclusion fails miserably and that is how I come across hundreds of people – just throwing away the gemstones that they (MIND) had thought to be a perfect solution!

A meditative man who understands the language of the stars – can help you with the solution. He is not a calculative man – he is not a Pundit, he is not a scholar – he is not a man who would keep analyzing – he would simply give you the most beautiful gift – the gift of consciousness – the gift of awareness. When awareness comes – no calculations are required – you understand the unspoken language – the language of the heart!

The only lasting beauty is the beauty of the heart.

“The very center of your heart is where life begins – the most beautiful place on earth.” -Rumi

And whatever comes from the heart – *is* the real solution! But people never reach to their hearts – they simply become the slave of their MIND and the MIND can never let you realize the truth. The MIND is a MONKEY – it will continue to wander – it will continue to make you restless – because the nature of the MIND itself is of being restless!

“The nature of the MIND is to wander. YOU are NOT the Mind.” – Bhagwan Sri Ramana Maharshi

To understand your problem, you have to look within, to find the solution to your problem – you have to look within. No books and no astrologers and no pundits can give you – what you can FIND within yourself! Your MIND has illusions – your HEART has the answers!

“You shouldn’t seek greatness outside. It is present within you. You just need to slowly realize your true nature by experimentation.
Listen to your heart and answer your calling.”
– Osho

Millions and millions of books are written on which gemstone has to be donned – hundreds and hundred of astrologers and pundits are recommending gemstones – and yet nobody knows – what is right for me? You are just following – but I am encouraging you to follow your heart, to dive within and find the answers you have been seeking – but who wants to listen?

In your case – the harmony is existing, there is a music, there is a dance, there is a resonance of your stars – then why you want to wear a pearl? But who wants to listen – the MIND wants something – some stone, some talisman, something has to be there – so then you can RELAX!

But I appeal to all my followers – do not let your MIND interfere – do not become so weak that you cannot survive happily without a GEMSTONE! I want you all – not to just keep wearing gemstones – I would want you all to be more and more meditative – so that a day would come when no gemstone is required – because then you have become a Gem of a person! And that is my only prayer – to help you all – become more and more meditative. Come – let us become more human, more meditative and more loving.

Love deeply, love without jealousy, love blissfully and help each other to be more meditative.

“Love means the art of being with others. Meditation means the art of being with yourself. They are two aspects of the same coin.” -OSHO

Gemstone, Talisman, Threads – these all are just tools – what activates – these tools is your KARMA. You may have the finest mobile – but if it is not ‘charged’ – not activated – then what is the use – it is as good as dead.

A gemstone is a medium – the quality of your KARMA is the real source of your future. But people have made the ‘medium’ much larger than life! And that is the greatest irony of human life! What should be truly focused on (Karma) – is ignored while what needs minimum attention is enlarged!

What you FOCUS on – GROWS! Focus on correcting your KARMA, focus on turning inwards, focus on raising your ‘self’ to higher altitudes. Love is contagious – what you love is what you become! Love, but love something that takes you to the beyond. Bring something higher into yourself and the lower will be forgotten.

In the AGE of Ignorance (Kali-Yug) – the FACE (RAHU) is sought after – the FACE is ‘plastic’- it is artificial – it is ‘lifeless’ – there is no truth in it – the real truth is within – your true beauty is within – your true fragrance is within you.

And I am here – to help you find the real flowers. You may not find my answers like the many perfect looking plastic flowers – but there is a fragrance to the answer that I am sharing – and you can only feel it when you are flowering – and your ‘flowering’ is only possible when you are meditating!

Nothing matters more than your ‘innermost’ flowering – then there is a music to it, then there is a fragrance to your being – then even if you wear a plain stone – it becomes a great magical stone – the miracle, the magic is within you – once you have it – then every stone that you touch – becomes a miracle! Then there is no negativity – but only positivism. Then there is no place for a ‘NO’ but only for ‘YES’!

“No is a closed state of mind, yes is open flower. Just a simple word YES, can revolutionize your whole being.”
-OSHO

Your ‘self’ is much greater than a ‘stone’ – focus on the ‘self’! REalize your self-worth. Meditate.

Jai Shri Ganesha! Jai Guru!

Retrograde Jupiter in 6th House

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

The word ‘Retrograde’ has to be first understood. Why the word ‘Retrograde’? The English dictionary defines the word ‘Retrograde’ as moving backward. In more explanatory terms – the word Retrograde means “to go back on the progress that has been made.”

A man is in a relationship. Venus matters when it comes to relationships. Venus is going retrograde – now the same man would look back on the progress that has been made in his relationship – maybe he may just sit back – maybe a certain question would arise – the woman would want to get married – the man is not ready – he wants to take his own time to make a decision – sometimes both of them – go into a retro-mood – and start analyzing – the many good and challenging points of their relationship – so you see – nothing is moving ahead – the relationship has come to a point of halt – it is going slow, backward – in rounds and rounds of thoughts – that’s retrogression – “to go back on the progress that has been made.”

Right now Planet Venus is still in the sign of Libra from last 3.5 months. When in reality Venus transits a zodiac sign in just 28 days! But this year (2018) – Venus went retrograde from October 5th to November 16th! And so imagine – how many relationships would be going through a retrogression mode? I personally have received almost over 100 cases – where either there has been a break-up, or relationship is going through certain hurdles. So you see – retrogression is ‘state’ that is neither good nor bad. It all depends on the progress you have made so far!

In reality – a planet to whom we address as a Retrograde planet is NOT going backward – let this be very clear. This is deep, and this is of significance.

In reality – such a planet has simply slowed down – somewhere the energy of the planet has slowed down – who slows down the energy – and to this – no one has found an answer – even the scientists are scratching their heads but no specific answer has been found so far! But our ancient seers and saints had. The energy to which we address as God – God-consciousness!

“THE WHOLE UNIVERSAL CONSCIOUSNESS CREATED THE INDIVIDUAL CONSCIOUS OF EACH OF US,
EXPERIENCING ITSELF FROM DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVES, -IN WHICH EACH OF US CREATE THE LIFE WE EXPERIENCE.”

The divine God-consciousness to which many addresses as – Krishna-Consciousness (ISKON) or Christ-Consciousness is the energy that impacts the slowing down (in our words – retrograde)of the Planet! The Planet is not moving backward – rather it has just slowed down – in life – God slows down us as well – is that bad? No, it is a blessing in disguise – because in this slowing down – in this state of retrogression – God simply wants you to sit back, introspect, meditate and understand who you are, what is it that you are doing, through this retrograde state – God is simply giving you ‘window’ of opportunity to discover your true self – a rarest of the rare opportunity to transform yourself – to make you *revisit* the matters of life so that you understand what works for you and what doesn’t! It is during the retrogression period that you come to a state where much has to be cut, much has to be dropped. Only the very essential has to be saved; the nonessential has to be completely destroyed.

And by the time you come out of retrograde state – you have got much clarity on what works for you and what isn’t – whether it is a relationship – or office matters, or family matters or even enemy matters! At the end of retrogression – you are slowly coming towards a conclusion – to where you want to head?

Mercury goes retrograde almost many times in a year. I had a friend, she was the Director of an IT company in the US. During one my trip to the US – during one conversation with her, I realized how much she gets worried when Mercury goes retrograde! And that is understandable – one certainly should not make any decisions – when Mercury goes retrograde – the period of retrogression is to analyze, look within, turn inwards – to find answers to a certain query, a certain project that you may have in your hands, it is, in fact, a great time to brainstorm on an idea – but not make a decision – it is only after the brainstorm – after the revisiting – after the retrograde state – that a good decision can be made! So – RETROGRADE PERIOD – use it for decision-making – but DECIDE only when the Planet is no more retrograde but have become Direct. Let a week pass after the retrogression period is over and then make a decision!

Now – when you have a Retrograde Planet itself in your Birth Chart – tell me – how would you look at it? It is simply a signal that this human life of yours have certain ‘matters of life’ that you got to REVISIT, RETROSPECT, REVIVE. It is a ‘left-over’ Karma of your PAST LIFE – and this human life has been bestowed upon you – so that you complete the unfinished business of your past life! Remember – everybody is born to pay for their past life karma – but in retrograde case – it is not about paying the dues – it is revisiting the unfinished Karma – and ensuring that is finished – and in reality, it does finish because of the existence – the existence ensures that the cosmic law is justified.

What is the difference – retrograde and normal state of the planet?

Retrograde example – A young man is getting ready to marry the love of his life – and suddenly he goes back on his decision – he runs away from his marriage. Now what? This man is reborn with certain retrograde planetary placement around his marriage aspects/house – where it determines – that now the unfinished business of marriage has to be addressed – the marriage has to take place for the native (soul) to move on with his cycle of birth and rebirth!

Normal example – Here the story has moved on – the young man has gone ahead, married the love of his life – now – how he lived his married life – whether he was loyal to his love, whether he was a good husband – whatever the quality of karma related to his marriage – will be seen in his next birth chart when he is reborn. Here you will see no sign of a retrograde planet in regards to his marriage. Here he is simply made to pay his dues – if he was a good husband – he will be getting a positive placement for his marriage – if not then accordingly he would be put to ‘task’! So in a normal state of planets – the story of life is moving on – progressing – but in retrograde – it has “to go back on the progress that has been made.”

A man or woman with a retrograde planet has NOT gone all the way – at some point, they have quit – and so now they have come in this human world to FINISH the unfinished business that they had quit in their last human life.

“If you must begin then go all the way, because if you begin and quit, the unfinished business you have left behind begins to haunt you all the time.”
-Chogyam Trungpa

And generally, it is found – that these retrograde community of individuals complete the unfinished business that they had left behind (past-life).

A whole birth – a whole human life is awarded to them – just so that they can address the unfinished business of their last life – and so usually they do meet success in it.

Unfinished business – but related to what aspect of life? This is understood from the planet and the house it is placed in!

In your case – the sixth house – determines many parts of human life and human affairs – but on a higher level and from a positive angle – it has more to do with SERVICE – to SERVE! Somewhere the native has quit from serving someone – now who is this someone – for that other aspects are necessary to understand. But the core point is to SERVE – to FORGIVE enemies – to either finish certain disputes by being MORE COMPASSIONATE – MORE UNDERSTANDING in your daily routine life. It is also an indication that one must demonstrate loyalty towards those who provide him with employment. Since Jupiter is a planet of compassion and love – here – the message is simple – BE MORE and MORE Kind – do not indulge in REVENGEFUL ACTS – learn to live in a LET-GO!

“Let-go is a deep understanding of the phenomenon that we are part of one existence. We cannot afford to have separate egos; we are one with all. And the all is vast, immense.”
– Osho

Your understanding will help you to go with the whole, wherever it is going. You do not have a goal separate from the whole, and the whole has no goal. It is not going anywhere.

Albert Einstein is the only scientist – who had realized the true essence of the universe – of the ‘whole’!

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
– Albert Einstein

The understanding of let-go helps you to be here, without any goals, without any idea of achievement, without any conflict, struggle or fight, knowing that it is the fighting with yourself which is simply foolish.

To meditate is to LET-GO!

“Meditation is a surrender, it is not a demand. It is not forcing existence your way. it is relaxing into the way existence wants you to be.
It is a let-go.”
-Osho

A man with a retrograde planet in the SIXTH – should learn to live in a LET-GO. Existence wants you to LET-GO of all your disputes, your misunderstanding, your unfinished grudges, and enmities – existence wants you to come out clean and the only way to come out clean – is to simply stop reacting and learn to live in total acceptance – and that is what the Buddhists call – Tathata! Tathata is to live in suchness – such are the things – such is the situation – there is simply no question of accepting or rejecting – you simply live in suchness – TATHATA! And a man who lives in suchness is called Tathagata!

To learn to live in a let-go – you have to first – find yourself and you will be able to find yourself only when you lose yourself in the service of others!

“The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.”
– Mahatama Gandhi

When going through the Mahadasha of any retrograde planet – remember you have to be more understanding, more meditative and you have to learn to Let-Go – the period of a retrograde planet is your testing time – and you will pass only if you REACT LESS and RESPOND MORE! Certain unfinished matters of the retrograde planet will come to you – and so you have to be more humble, more compassionate and more serving towards others. Serving because in your case it is the sixth house!

The sixth house is the house of service! Serve more and more people – selflessly – don’t run away from the responsibility of serving and soon your next life the matters of the sixth house and the house ruled by Jupiter would be no more in the state of Retrograde – but flowing profusely – like a beautiful running river!

“RIVERS KNOW THIS: THERE IS NO HURRY. WE SHALL GET THERE SOME DAY.”

Manglik Dosha: What Are Exceptions?

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

How can the doctor give you medicine – when you are perfectly fine? But society is fake, society wants you to be as miserable as you can – so then the society pundits can loot you – then you come under their grip – and people are innocent – they are already fighting many battles of life – who has the courage to stand up and say – that this so-called – MANGLIK-DOSH – is a loot – a straightway abusive exploitation – who has the courage – if you say so – you will be condemned as a fool – but I don’t care – and so I am standing up and saying again and again to all my followers – don’t become a victim of this crap – there is no need to fear of Mangalik Dosha – it is not a ‘disease’ – it is not something that makes you ‘untouchable’!

Calling someone ‘Mangalik’ – sounds abusive. And if you are falling for this abuse – if you are not willing to come out of the darkness (ignorance) then you better ignore me and my answer. You can continue to live with the label of being Mangalik – that is your choice, can’t help!

In reality, there is nothing called as ‘Mangalik’ – it is, in fact, a very positive sign of a person have more energy of Mars. There are millions of people who are ‘Mangalik’ – and who are doing exceptionally well – in marriages – in relationships – in jobs – in businesses – in politics – in film/entertainment industry you name it – and there are millions of examples.

FEAR is sold fast – and so a fear is created – then you will come, then you will shell out good money – it has become a business – a business of Mangalik Fear!

Beliefs come out of FEAR! And this is significant – once a fear is created – a certain belief is born out of it! Truth is not born out of FEAR – God is not born out of FEAR – God can only be known out of Love! And people waste their whole life – by living in fear – they miss the truth, they miss God, they simply miss the whole beauty – the whole happiness and joy of life! They miss life. Life never begins.

“Life begins where fear ends.”
-Osho

Mangalik is just a signal that you have more energy, more power, more courage, more bravery, more individualism than the others! And so you see great commanders, great politicians, great actors, great writers, great talented men and women with this position and look – what the ignorant men of this world have made this wonderful placement into – they have made it a cause of ‘fear’ – just for few coins, they have sold MARS – they have sold FEAR – and I appeal to all my followers and the questioner to not to buy this FEAR – to understand the positive side of the story – remember every placement irrespective of what it is – has a positive and negative side to it!

Positive. Negative. Both are required to complete you.

“I must also have a dark side if I am to be whole.”
– C.G. Jung

Life is absolutely balanced between the positive and the negative. Now it is your choice which side you want to be – in heaven or in hell. They both are there, absolutely balanced. It is up to you to choose. The negative is not your imagination, neither the positive is your imagination. They both are there – absolutely balanced. It is up to you to choose.

Similarly, for all kind of planetary placements – it is up to you to choose!

Mars is the planet of energy – pure energy – and Mars doesn’t distinguish the energy that it bestows upon you – it is pure energy – now what and how your direct this energy is solely the choice of the individual! Why TOO MUCH OF MARS or Mangalik as they say – is a point of sensitivity is because now you have got immense energy – more than what the other ‘common’ folks get from Mars – with too much of mars – you are blessed with too much of sexual energy – too much of courage – too much of bravery – too much of aggressiveness – too much of daring – so you see – ‘Too Much’ is the only catch!

“TOO MUCH – is the only sin.” -Lao Tzu

Learn to CURB the- TOO MUCH-ness and you will be okay – then there is an altogether different meaning to this placement – then failure becomes a success – then all that seems to be impossible becomes possible – then life is no more the same – then life is more of love and less of logic!

The marriage of a strong Martian has to be with a strong martian! And that is obvious – because when you have 2000cc of sexual power – you cannot be satisfied by someone who has just 8oocc of sexual power! A Maruti 800 won’t catch up with a BMW – to catch up with a BMW – you need a BMW only!

Using the word ‘Mangalik’ – is highly abusive – it works in India – but in the US or in any western country such an abusive word will not be tolerated – but our fellow Indians have been so much brainwashed by the religious pundits and certain astrologers that – they just don’t find anything wrong in being bullied or labeled as Mangalik – so here I am going to refer to a much victimized Mangalik individual as a strong Martian.

A strong Martian is outspoken, courageous, bold – he or she is a TIGER – and so when it comes to a relationship, a partnership, a marriage – a good match has to be there – someone who is also outspoken, someone who is also courageous, bold, large-hearted – open to ideas – now in this world – how many are true with such great qualities? And so often getting a suitable match for marriage – becomes a challenging task! Now which astrologer is going to tell you this – who wants to lose a good lucrative business of selling fear of Mars?

But I am doing it – just for the sake of my followers – just so that anybody who follows me – does not get trapped in lies and fears – I want all my followers to live a fearless life – a life that is not burdened by fear but is flying with courage, with faith, with patience!

Just a touch of guidance, a touch of love, a touch of understanding – and a cruel Saul becomes Saint Paul – an illiterate thief Ratnakar – becomes Saint Valmiki – an ignorant warrior – Arjuna becomes the greatest warrior the world had ever known! So don’t condemn anybody – only a man who has shallow understanding would condemn others – a man of awareness, a meditative man would never condemn but rather be as compassionate as possible – that is how Jesus is, that is how Krishna is, that is how Buddha is!

“Love and compassion are necessities, not luxuries. Without them humanity cannot survive.”
-Dalai Lama

A strong martian is very sexy, very attractive, very bold, very outspoken and very compassionate also! To find a match for such a unique individual is not going to be an easy task – and so either marriage are delayed or marriages fail when the ‘match’ is missed!

A strong martian (or as they use the abusive word – Mangalik) – is a unique individual – and so I appeal to all my followers to look within and if you are a ‘Strong Martian’ – then realize your unique individuality – you are born not by accident – there is a reason for your existence, understand, realize that reason. Each person comes into this world with a specific destiny–he has something to fulfill, some message has to be delivered, some work has to be completed.

“You are not here Accidentally, you are here Meaningfully. There is a Purpose behind you. The whole Intends to do something Through You.” – Osho

A strong martian has immense energy – there is a reason for his or her existence – some work has to be finished – some questions left unanswered in the last life has to be answered – so there is much going on, the energy is overflowing – weak people, ignorant people who can’t take it – start criticizing, start condemning such beautiful strong Martians – who wants to know the truth – and truth has no agenda! Buddha has no agenda, Krishna has no agenda, Jesus has no agenda – truth is flowing – the river is flowing – whosoever comes is welcomed – and the truth is only a few come, only few could really understand – Jesus had only 12 Apostles, Krishna had only one Arjuna, Buddha had only one Sariputra – truth has always fewer followers – and yet it is truth that prevails, it is the truth that remains! One who speaks the truth is condemned – is crucified.

“ALL TRUTH PASSES THROUGH THREE STAGES:
FIRST
it is ridiculed.
SECOND
appler It is violently opposed.
THIRD
It is accepted as being self-evident.”
-Arthur Schopenhauer

I appeal to all my followers – do not fear, do not feel low, do not allow others to bully you – stand up and understand the truth – and the truth is – that you don’t become an alien just because you have a strong martian energy – just because you are more courageous, just because you are outspoken, just because you have the daring to face challenges, just because you have the guts to go against the society and stand up to the truth – no my dear Martians – you are not aliens, you are not to be sidelined or condemned but to be appreciated for your wonderful qualities that have made this world a more beautiful place, a more safe place to live!

“Love and respect yourself and never compromise for anything. And then you will be surprised how much growth starts happening of its own accord.. as if rocks have been removed and the river has started flowing.”
-Rajneesh

There is no answer to your question because in my ‘dictionary’ – such questions don’t exist and it should not exist in your dictionary also. Your question – itself is a proof that you have been thinking a lot negative about the wonderful martian qualities – and I don’t blame you for this because that is what the society wants you to be – a fearful man!

“THE SOCIETY SUCCEEDS THE DAY YOUR CENTER GOES INTO A COMA AND YOUR CIRCUMFERENCE REMAINS FUNCTIONING. THEN YOU ARE A ROBOT, A MACHINE, NO MORE A MAN.”
-OSHO

And that’s my whole purpose for being on this forum and that is to help you and all those who are following me – to understand to realize the truth. Whatsoever the society has done to you has to be undone. Your consciousness has to be leaned, emptied so that you can become like a pure mirror reflecting reality!

Remember – we are in this beautiful world – not to condemn others – but to love others and the first step to love others starts with yourself!

“Nobody has ever said to you, “Love yourself!” The very idea seems absurd loving oneself? The very idea makes no sense loving oneself? We always think that to love one needs somebody else. But if you don’t learn it with yourself you will not be able to practise it with others.”
-Osho

And so the only answer that can truly address your question is just in two words – “Love Yourself”.

Let love be the answer to all your questions and love is born out of understanding – deep understanding! True love is born out of understanding says the Buddha!

“Let understanding be your only law.” -Osho

If you can grow in love, you will grow in awareness and if you grow in awareness – you will grow in love! Love blossoms through understanding. And understanding comes through deep meditation. Meditate and also help others meditate – the answer to all miseries is within you – turn inwards and meditate.

“Love deeply, love without jealousy, love blissfully and help each other to be more meditative.”
-Osho

Jai Ganesha! Jai Guru!

Sun in Fifth House: No Children?

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

There are millions of women who have Sun in 5th house and so to generalize is to commit suicide – out of ignorance!

Sun has unnecessarily being defamed by so called pundits and astrologers. And Sun is waiting to just catch these men and ask for clarification on ‘ why the heck they are defaming HIM.’ – Anyways that was on a lighter note! 🙂

Sun has nothing to do with creating problems or hurdles with progeny. A 5th house Sun is a sign of ‘intelligence’ – great intelligence! And still such people become a scapegoat of astrologers who create so much fear and negation in the mind of these people that they simply miss the truth!

And the truth is that SUN has nothing to do with progeny delays – it is the star, the house lord and the ascendant lord that creates a favorable or unfavorable situation when it comes to the event of a successful progeny!

In fact the child of such a person is also going to be an intelligent child and not just intellectual. You will become pregnant – but to ensure that the 9 months journey is safely completed – you have to take care of yourself. Modern medical solutions like IVF comes handy for such placements.

Many of my followers with such a placement have become pregnant through modern medical intervention – it is only that you need to know ‘when to do it’ and then the rest of the journey happens on its own!

There are so many factors that are responsible for delays in progeny – but people are in rush to put blame on someone – so that they feel relaxed! And in this mad crazy rush – the poor SUN is victimized and that is not good – in-fact with such a placement one should definitely worship LORD SUN with immense love and devotion. One should donate copper utensils to a good priest/pundit/brahmin.

One should perform – Surya Yagya – it is also called Aditya Yagya – since Aditya is the lord Sun! This nullifies any negative effect of Sun -if there is one.

So one should be devoted to SUN – sit in the early morning hours and pray to Lord Sun. The reason people get frustrated is they don’t know the real reason and they are just shooting in the ‘dark’!

And the day you would come out of ‘dark’ – which is your own ignorance – life will no more be a problem, a misery – but a beautiful garden of bliss!

God is Kind – but people are in rush! And that is how you get depressed, then you start looking for a scapegoat and once you have found it – you put the whole blame on it and that is all you do – there is no further going, you trap yourself through your own ignorance!

So, stop hating, blaming SUN in 5th house for denial of motherhood – and start loving, devoting to the greatest Lord of the whole universe – Lord Sun. Sun will never deny you the most wonderful experience of motherhood – to become a mother is indeed the most divine experience that a woman can have in her life!

Always remember this – no matter how many astrologers tell you – but this God’s fool is telling you again and again – do not blame Lord Sun – for SUN in 5th is certainly not the reason for denial of motherhood!

Astu.Aum.Amen. Let the light shine. Let the light within show us the way…

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Do Exalted Planets Always Benefit?

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

This idea of ‘exalted’ planets creates an illusion among many. Do you know – that the most popular personalities – across all walks of life – don’t have much or any exalted planets? Do you know that the wealthy people have no exalted planets in their charts? Do you know that there are millions of people living in slum areas – and yet the *have* exalted planets in their charts?
And this is the greatest tragedy of Astrology in today’s time! It has become a ‘toy’ – and ‘toy’ cannot help you find your answers – you have to come to the real master – the real thing – but who wants to listen to truth?

“Society considers honesty as virtue – but nobody wants to listen to the truth”

I have personally read charts of people in slum areas – they have exalted planets – I have personally read charts of celebrities – they don’t have exalted planets – neither the wealthy people – neither the politicians! So you see – just having ‘exalted’ planets doesn’t change your situation.
Exalted planets simply specify the ‘exalted qualities’ of a person. A man may be living in the slum area – but if he has exalted planets – he is a man of ‘value’ – you see – the word is ‘value’ – the exalt position makes you a good person – such a person ‘exalts’ in certain skill – certain art!
So when you say that you have exalted planet in 3rd – you definitely have a certain skill – that you would excel as you grow – step by step – you will achieve excellence in a specific skill!
And ninth house exalt point – provides you with the necessary quality of achieving higher education – such a man or woman is deeply devoted to a certain deity – is generally very faithful – also signifies a good caring father or parent.
Overall, to have an exalted planet is not enough – placements – aspects and the D9 chart matters a lot – if the exalted planet debilitates in D9 – then much of the quality is lost!
However, my suggestion to all my followers is :

“Get out of your head and get it your heart – celebrate life – sing, dance and let LOVE be the only religion of your life.”

Life is a celebration of moments – astrology can only be of use – if you look at it from a casual way – natural way – astrology prediction is not an ‘Akashwani’ – GOD has been kind enough to provide human beings with the WILL to change their future for better – and to that you simply have to ‘Surrender’ to the almighty – when you let GOD drive your life – you are always sure that you are going to taken care of!
Astu. Aum. Amen.
Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Born on Full Moon: Meaning

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Gautama Buddha was born on a FULL moon day and Gautama Buddha attained enlightenment on a FULL moon day! The significance of FULL moon is immense.

Gautama Buddha’s whole life is connected with the full moon: HE was born on full moon, he became enlightened on the full moon night, he died on the full moon night. This cannot be just coincidence!

And now physiologists have been studying the effects of the full moon on the human psyche – and the results are staggering. On Full moon day – you become more spirited – full moon night does something to the human psyche.

Since the very beginning it has been affecting the poets, the painters, the sculptors, the musicians, the dancers, the actors – and the spiritualists! There is something different under the full moon; that perhaps the rays of the full moon are hand in hand! – The distance is far – but the closeness – the intimacy is still felt!

In Zen Buddhism – the full moon has become something special – because everything that happened to Buddha happened on the full moon night! So in every Zen monastery – on the full moon night people just sit under their trees and watch the full moon. The full moon has become symbolically connected with Gautama Buddha. And just watching and witnessing the full moon, they enter into deep meditation.

Among all the Enlightened Ones, Gautama the Buddha is very special to me. Gautama Buddha is the most beautiful man who has walked on this planet!

H.G. Wells, in his world history, has written one sentence which should be written in gold. Writing about Gautama Buddha he writes, “Gautama Buddha is perhaps the only godless man, and yet so godly!”

Capricorn moon is by birth spiritual – provided Sun, Moon and Mars – are well connected to spiritual points in the birth chart. And – make it a Full Moon – and you have an ‘icing on the cake’! But the story is not yet over – the whole story of spirituality can be missed – when RAHU – the demonic energy comes in between – so one has to see – if teh horoscope in inclined towards RAHU-ish trend or KETU-ish trend. The latter is good for spiritual progress.

KETU is not seeking. Remember this, realize this. Shri Ketu is not searching, not desiring – not looking for anything – it simply is relaxing – and it is only when you RELAX – that it comes, that the divine flows through you – that is the only moment when you truly experience GOD.

Buddha does not give you any religious education. He wants you simply to be yourself, whatever it is. That is your religion – to be yourself. No man has loved freedom so much. No man has loved mankind so much. He would not accept followers for the simple reason that to accept a follower is to destroy his dignity. He accepted only fellow travelers. His last statement before dying was, “If I ever come back, I will come as your friend.”

And so my word to all my fellow travelers is this – do not try to become – just be yourself – just relax – just accept yourself in totality – you don’t have to go anywhere, you don’t have to seek anything – just be rooted within – for God is not up in the sky – God dwells within you – turn inwards – meditate – and live in total acceptance.

Love and compassion are the natural expression of our inner transformation. We can meditate with Buddha, dance with Krishna and celebrate our love with Sufis.

You don’t have to become a Buddhist to understand Buddha – you don’t have to become a christian to understand Jesus – you don’t have to become a Hindu to understand Krishna and you don’t have to become a Muslim to understand the Prophet – just let ‘understanding’ be your only law.

Buddha is not a name, it is a title. It is a state of enlightenment – anyone – irrespective of your religion – can be a Buddha – to attain Buddhahood – you need not be a Buddhist – you just have to understand your ‘self’ – you just have to understand Gautama Buddha.

I am a Hindu and still I have immense respect, love for Gautama Buddha – I just love this man who walked on this planet. And so here I share a beautiful quote that I very deeply resonate with:

“I love Gautama the Buddha because he represents to me the essential core of religion. He is the beginner of a totally different kind of religion in the world. He has propounded not religion but religiousness. And this is a great radical change in the history of human consciousness.” – Osho

Full moon is Buddha. Buddha is the Full moon – and therefore the full moon has become synonymous with the essence of spiritualism and hence your question of full moon has also the fragrance of spiritualism!

Beautiful.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Being Manglik in D9 Chart

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

What is Manglik? It is being courageous – so courageous that they can take risks to save somebody’s life! What is Manglik? – It is basically being sexually more active – so much active – that only another Manglik can sustain the solid sexual power of a Manglik man or woman! What is Manglik? It is being straight – to the point – they are not hypocrites – they say it as it is!

But no one is going to tell you this – because people are afraid – what will he say – what will she say – what will they say? – And so people cover up such a great strength of a MANGLIK – they create fear within them – by saying things that are not true in any sense! They say this and they say that – and they make a ‘Mangalik’ person feel as if he or she has done a SIN – as if he or she is an ALIEN! Because society is fake – society never wants the real to come out – and a Mangalik is a courageous man or woman. They stand up to the call of the situation – they are ones who will not wait and watch but take ACTION. In today’s corporate world – they are the true ACTION LEADERS – they are the ones who have projected ACTION LEADERSHIP!

Navamsha or D9 chart is more spiritual – astral – than physical! And since Manglik has more to do with Physicality – action – energy – sex – power – material – your question gets a NO answer.

You see – I can make out that people have made you believe that MANGLIK is like being a criminal, as if you are an alien – as if you are condemned from the moment you are born! But dear – that is not the case – many great warriors, officers, politicians, movie celebrities are born with the stamp of MANGLIK!

And so I ask all of my followers to spread the word – that to be MANGLIK is not a SIN – is not a SHAME – is not a drawback – but a strength – an unusual power that is ready to face and overcome as many challenges – like a brave soldier!

“Society slanders and condemns the free individual, who is the only alive person – but this is not the whole story. The free individual is condemned in the beginning and worshipped in the end. It has always been the case. If a fully alive man remains alive to the end, he is destined to be condemned first and worshipped and adored later. And a real free person is not afraid of condemnation, ostracism, even crucifixion.” – Osho

A Mangalik is such a man – he is a real free person – who is NOT afraid of condemnation, for freedom – for the truth – for the divine – he is ready to get crucified – A Mangalik is the most fearless man – and certainly can become a great boon to this fake society – if other aspects support!

For more spiritual motivation- you all can avail my published books – ‘How to overcome Rahu’ & ‘ Gift of Consciousness’ on Amazon. Print book copies are shipped across all geographies.

Jai Shri Ganesha! Jai Guru!

Which Number is Luckier: 5 or 7?

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Which drink is good – tea or coffee?

You see – the answer is going to come – as per the user’s requirement. Some find tea unfit for their health, some find coffee unfit for their health – and some find coffee perfectly fit for their health!

Similarly, the applicability of number 7 or number 5 – depends on who the user is – what is his or her ‘internal system’ (Read-planetary positions)!

For a person who is spiritual by nature – who is speculative – who has the courage to JUMP and take risks – number 7 is suitable. Spirituality comes only to that man or woman – who has the courage to JUMP! Peter – the fisherman was such a man – he meets Jesus for the first time and Jesus looks into his eyes and says “Follow me, I will make you a fisher of men -”

And Peter – drops everything – and starts following Jesus Christ! He is not intellectual, he is not literate, the world must have called him a fool – but the same ‘fool’ – becomes one of the greatest saints – Saint Peter!

That is the power of faith – but for that one has to be courageous, faithful and consistent. One has to have to courage to JUMP – Peter doesn’t think – doesn’t ask any questions – the moment he sees this divine man – he could see the light – he could sense HIS Aura – there was no way he could deny – he simply – Jumped! – and that is how the number 7 is – only that man can find it luckier who has the daring to risk everything and JUMP!

They say – think first and then Jump, I say first Jump and then think as much as you want. – Osho

And number 5 – that is a perfect contrast to number 7! That is not Peter – that is Judas – that is communist – that is first ‘brains’. Once it happened – that Mary Magdalene – a devotee of Jesus – comes to meet Jesus and as soon as she comes – she pours a very expensive perfume on Jesus’s feet.

Judas is watching, he is also one follower of Jesus – he says to Jesus “ Why you did not stopped her from doing this – so many people would have been fed from the price of the perfume that she poured on your feet.?”

You see – that is number 5 – Logic, Logic and Logic!

To that Jesus smiles and says “ She has poured it out of her love – I could not stop her – unable to express her feelings, she has done it to express her deep love for me – how can I stop her – I cannot stop her.”

Mary Magdalene is one of the greatest lover of Jesus – and that’s number 7 – it has no calculations, it has no logic, it simply flows to those with whom its heart vibrates! That is how the number 7 is far superior to number 5 – number 7 is spiritual, number 5 is material – but then the question remains – Which drink is good for you – tea or coffee?

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Sun in 8th House (D9 Chart)

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

Rashi Chart is the physical body – yes everything looks good – but whether the body will operate with full potential is something only the D9 chart can foretell.

D9 – helps you to find the real story. The real face! The ‘story’ or the ‘face’ that you see through the Rashi Chart is not the truth – it is just a mask – and masks are not real!

Whole life you are being told to shape your personality – what is personality? It is a mask. And the world wants you to have a strong mask (personality) – nobody wants you to be real – nobody wants you to be yourself! And that is the greatest irony of this fake society – a society who simply want you to ‘fake’ – and not to be REAL!

Nobody wants to be REAL – because REAL has less like than the FAKE. And so everybody is spending thousands just to sharpen the ‘mask’ (personality).

Be aware – Personality can mislead you – and that is what is happening – you fall for the personality and NOT the individuality!

The society fears ‘individuality’ – the society would always want you to be ‘personas’ – because personas are fake and society is all but fake!

Individual intelligence is a danger to society. And so the society would never want you to be an individual – the society is happy as long as you remain a ‘personality’!

The society exists through lies. Personality is fake and it pays by being a fake, it is a good policy. If you are true, you will be in danger. Society exists through lies. Here truth is not respected, here truth is killed. And lies are enthroned. Jesus is crucified, Mohammed is forced to exile from Mecca, Buddha is ridiculed, Mahavira is offended – you see – the truth, the reality is not accepted – the more you are a persona – the more you would be accepted by this fake society. And the more you are an individual – the more you would be rejected.

To be a persona – a personality – it pays, it is economical, it is safe. It is a mask that protects you – otherwise, people will be against you – they cannot tolerate the truth and the D9 chart or the Navamsa is the truth.

Your Rashi Chart or Ascendant Birth Chart is your MASK (Personality) – your D9 Chart is your INDIVIDUALITY! How you look is your Ascendant chart – WHAT YOU ARE? – is your D9 chart and this is of great significance. To all my followers and readers – I insist – study the D9 chart – and you will be able to do so effectively only when you are an INDIVIDUAL and not just a personality!

You are born not to become – let this be very clear. You are born to BE yourself! And this is very deep and this is of great significance. Once there was a Buddhist priest – whole life he spends in becoming Gautama Buddha! And when he is laid on his deathbed – at the very last moment – he starts crying – nobody is able to understand why he is crying? His disciples are taken aback. Somebody steps ahead and asks “Why are you crying, what is it that you miss?”

And the Buddhist priest said “ I missed – I simply missed my whole life. When I will face God – and if he asks “ What have you been?” – I would have no answer. Because my whole life I have tried to become like someone – I never focused on being myself – and when God will say “ I send you to be yourself – if I wanted to have more Gautama Buddhas – I would have created – if I wanted to have more Krishnas – if I wanted to have more Jesus Christs – I would have created – but I created only ONE Gautama Buddha, only ONE Krishna only ONE Jesus Christ, only ONE Muhammed – and only ONE – YOU. – then why you missed to be yourself?” – and then I would have no answer – what a fool I have been – I cannot face God – I cannot face HIM, and so I am crying, I have missed my whole life in becoming and missed to BE.”

And this is what happens with you – when you spend your whole life in trying to become – you become a slave of respectability – you run behind people just to become somebody – and in this mad rush – you simply ignore your ‘individuality’ – you simply miss to be yourself and that is the greatest tragedy of ignorant human life!

“Respectability is slavery. Individuality is dignity.” – Osho

Dignity is self-respect. A man of dignity will walk like a lion and roar like a lion. And that is not ego, it is his intrinsic energy, his intrinsic power.

Navamsa Chart is your INDIVIDUALITY. And your DIGNITY is based on the DEPTH of your INDIVIDUALITY!

When Navamsa chart is strong and well-placed – the native is definitely an ‘individual’ – and is dignified. You are then meeting a man or a woman who has certain higher values – a beautiful person who has the strength of character!

I met a woman. And she was a beautiful woman. And not only beautiful but she talked about so many good things, I almost felt as if she is that classic woman – a woman of values! Then when she shared her birth chart – I could see her D9 chart all messing up – and it turned out to be that this woman had faked many things to people with whom I had certain connections! You see – when the birth chart is perfect – you meet a perfect looking, behaving (outwardly) woman or man – but when you open their D9 chart – you get know what lies behind that beautiful -plastic mask!

And a man or a woman with a weak D9 chart often find many miseries in their life. Because what they show is not what they are! They say something, they do something exactly opposite to what they say – and to be with such a man or woman is certainly dangerous – because often you will be cheated – you will be back-stabbed!

Sun or any planet going in the 8th house of Navamsa is simply a sign of trouble for all matters that are represented by the Sun in your birth chart. It is certainly not a positive sign but since it is in its own sign – it becomes neutral. 8th house is allergic to Sun – and when Sun is in eighth – you generally suffer due to EGOIST nature – you have an inflated EGO – you want to know many things about the occult world, the strange, the unknown – the mystic – here SUN activates the many dark sciences of life – black magic, voodoo, supernatural elements – superstition and so on – whatever house the SUN represents in your birth chart – has some secret elements – some darkness – some tragedy attached to it. But overall any planet going in the 8th Navamasa house is a sensitive placement. It is a myth that Navamasa or the D9 chart is only limited to examining only marriage prospects – the D9 chart has much bigger canvas – a canvas that helps you to discover your true self – the whole world recognizes you as ‘Somebody’ – but what you are beneath this ‘Somebody’ – the question ‘Who am I’ can only be found through deep study of your D9 chart – for that is where the real thing is found. Tune in to the REAL. Tune in to your individuality.

Nobody is superior and nobody is inferior. But nobody is equal either. Every person is unique. You have to find your uniqueness – you have to find the answer to the question ‘Who am I?’

“Who am I?” – No book, no master, no scholar can give you the answer. This is the only answer that you – yourself have to find by *turning inwards* – meditate. And the day you start realizing your ‘self’ – then you don’t have to depend on others opinion about yourself.

“Discover yourself, otherwise, you have to depend on other people’s opinions who don’t know themselves.” – Osho

Unless you drop your personality – you won’t be able to find your individuality! Learn to be yourself – a man who focuses on the ‘self’ – sooner or later finds his individuality and then there is no looking back – he sets himself towards a great transformation – a transformation that changes him inside-out!

If you start working towards bringing your individuality to the surface – then no matter how weak is your D9 chart, maybe not this life, but for the many coming lives – your D9 chart would continue to progress – becoming more stronger, positive and powerful. And let me tell – when D9 improves, your birth chart also improves – it is a connection that goes hand in hand – when the energy within you finds harmony – your health also improves – D9 is that energy and Birth chart is your human body – to bring harmony to the energy within you – meditate, look within, turn inwards – for the way towards happiness is only by realizing your ‘self’ – meditate.

No meditation. No Life. Know meditation. Know life.

Meditation is your intrinsic nature. It is you, it is your being, it has nothing to do with your doings. You cannot have it. It cannot be possessed, it is not a thing. It is you. It is your being. AND that is what exactly – Navamsa is! It is your being.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Retrograde Ascendant Lord Results

By Acharya Addittya Tamhankar 0 Comments

The word ‘Vakri’ simply means ‘crooked’. When the ascendant lord is ‘Vakri’ (Crooked) – the person in question is a crooked person. He is a crook. Now if you have any good yogakaraka planet’s drishti on the crooked planet – then there is some nullification of the crookedness – else the person is 100% crooked by nature. Also ‘crooked’ or ‘Vakri’ – means the planet is not in its normal course of action – it is not normal – and so whatever house it represent – it will 100% give abnormal results. I have seen multiple horoscopes in my 15 yrs study and practice ( I am still a learner- till the very last day of my life) I have seen that the house represented by a crooked (vakri) graha – brings some kind of abnormality to the results of that house. Example – seventh house lord Jupiter is Vakri and placed in seventh house – now some bookish astrologer will say this is good – benefic jupiter is in the house of marriage – so good – but the truth is something else. Jupiter in 7th house of marriage is not a good placement for marriage and also when the same Jupiter is Vakri (crooked) – it simply conveys one truth – the husband or wife is going to be a crooked person by nature (political/hawkish/not trustworthy) by nature. Also it depicts a broken marriage or a very unhappy marriage life. Many things are there – you cannot just come up with one rule of set – that all Vakri Planets are bad – they become bad or good – based on were they are placed. For example Saturn is good in 3, 7, 11 – so if it is Vakri – it may not give great results, but its crookedness will not be too harsh than otherwise.

Vakri Planet brings abnormality, crookedness in the matters of the house that it rules. There is no such thing as Benefic or Malefic planets – crookedness means crookedness – that’s it.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.
