iPhone Suitability by Zodiac Sign

i-phone is a totally different breed of mobile handset and it is suitable for the following zodiac moon signs:

  1. LEO
  2. ARIES
  3. SAGITTARIUS
  4. CANCER
  5. PISCES
  6. CAPRICORN
  7. GEMINI
  8. AQUARIUS
  9. LIBRA

So if you are interested specifically in buying 🍎 Apple i-phone models and your moon sign is from the above mentioned 9 zodiac signs then just go get your brand new i- phone and WhatsApp ‘hi’ to me from your i-phone!

Steve Jobs — the man who developed the i-phone was indeed a genius. He never had his biological mother and father at his side. He was adopted by the Jobs family. It is said that Steve Jobs before starting the Apple company, had come all the way to Vrindavan, India to meet the divine spiritual master Neem Karoli Baba.

But Baba had taken Samadhi a year before Steve arrived. And so Steve and his friend stayed in the Ashram and practiced meditation for several days. After which he went back to the US and started a small company in his Garage which later came to be known as APPLE. It is said that Neem Karoli Baba liked the fruit 🍎 Apple and so inspired by the likes of the master — Steve Jobs made Apple as the Logo of his company!

Today the i- phone that you flaunt with pride has an Indian connection — the Vrindavan Ashram connection where the greatest spiritual master dwells — Neem Karoli Baba. I prostrate before His Holiness, the Baba who is believed to be the Avatar of Lord Hanuman.

And what a coincidence — today is also Saturday, the day of Lord Hanuman. Jai Veer Hanuman.

Love to all my readers. Stay safe. And stay blessed.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Lucky Car Brands by Astrology

If you are based in India – then before buying a new car – before scratching your head and going into the technicalities of each model – before comparing every model that is available in the current Indian Automobile market – you should FIRST focus on finding which CAR BRAND is suitable and lucky for you.

Always remember – what we keep changing – is something that is directly connected with our MIND. We keep changing clothes – residence – phone numbers – bikes – cars – wall paint colors of our residence, office – whatsoever we keep changing is related with our MIND. The MIND is always changing – and so today you may like one color – or one man or one woman – but tomorrow the same MIND may change and you may start liking some other color – some other woman – some other man. You see – maybe that is why we have so many breakups or divorces because in this SHALLOW MODERN AGE – men and women are becoming slaves of their MIND!

And that brings the MIND in focus when it comes to deciding what is lucky and what is unlucky for you!

MIND is represented by the MOON CHART and maybe that is why the ancient seers have stressed upon doing the daily routine predictions or weekly predictions by studying and observing the MOON CHART!

Because LIFE is changing – CHANGE is constant – except change everything else changes – even your physical body goes through many changes every day – MOON is also changing every day – that is why we have TITHIs – the ancient seers have given so much importance to TITHI – which marks every phase of the MOON – from PRATIPADA (first day of new moon) till POORNIMA (the day when the MOON becomes FULL)! And the same cycle is noted when the moon starts waning – until it becomes complete DARK – AMAVASYA – NO MOON or NEW MOON day!

Since in our daily lives we keep changing brands – the whole science of selecting a suitable brand falls under the realms of the MOON CHART!

The recommended lucky brands for each zodiac moon sign are a mixture of PREMIUM BRANDS and AFFORDABLE BRANDS – so that you get a good variety to choose from.

Car is directly connected to your fourth house and fourth house Lord.

Interestingly – there are many men and women in the WESTERN countries who live on the four wheels – meaning in BUS or a BIG CAR! Their Home is their CAR/VAN – you see – that is why FOURTH house signify HOME as well as CAR! Look at this beautiful woman enjoying being at HOME (VAN) with her cute kids.

FOURTH house is NOT a FIXED HOUSE – simply because in the KAAL PURUSH Kundli – the fourth house falls in the ZODIAC of CANCER which is a moveable sign! CANCER (Crab) has a very close connection with WATER – and WATER is ever flowing – the river water is always running just the way your CAR runs – a time will come when CARS will run on water – that would be the NEXT level innovation – sometime in the 2050s.

FOURTH house is also connected with EMOTIONS – tears (water) flow when you become emotional. Feelings – emotions – they all well up from the core of your HEART – and so HEART is also represented by the FOURTH house.

A woman’s breast also is represented by her fourth house – a woman’s breast are positive – meaning active – they can feed ‘milk’ to the child – milk is connected with the sign CANCER – whenever there is a malefic aspect to CANCER or MOON or FOURTH HOUSE/LORD – the woman either has problems with her breast – many have flat breasts – many find difficulties when it comes to feeding milk to their newborn child because milk just doesn’t flow from their breast! And so many such things happen. BREAST CANCER generally arise when the woman’s emotions – mindset or mentality is impacted negatively or is stressed too much or is tortured – or simply when the fourth house lord is retrograde and is MARAK for the birth chart!

BREAST CANCER or FLAT BREAST or NO BREAST at all – such signs are not positive – especially when it comes to a woman. AFFLICTED FOURTH HOUSE is indeed a sign of CURSE from last births. Life indeed is a challenge for such natives – especially for the woman.

Breast Cancer has indeed been on rise for several past years – and it is a message from the existence to all woman to focus on their life style – to rectify their lifestyle – raise the quality of their lifestyle.

With over 3 million women battling breast cancer today, everywhere you turn there is a mother, daughter, sister, or friend who has been affected by breast cancer.

Primarily any negative impact on the breasts – in case of woman – is directly connected with her life style, her diet intake – her quality of thoughts and her overall stress levels and state of the mind.

RISK to life is more in case of breast cancer than any other cancer simply because breast is directly connected with the root – foundation (4th house) of life. It is a known fact that the female sex center is around her breasts and the male sex center is around his penis. Male also has breasts but they are inactive meaning they cannot feed the child – Female also has clitoris just like men has penis but in case of females – the clitoris is non-functional. So you see – this is how Female and Male compliment each other – what a female has – the male doesn’t have and what a male has – the female doesn’t have – that makes it a good combination – GOD indeed is the greatest CREATOR – words cannot suffice HIS greatness.

God Is So Great That The Greatness Precludes Existence. – Raimon Panikkar

MIND therefore comes at the core of the FOURTH HOUSE – CANCER – the sign of MOON is directly connected with the MIND – you see – it is all interconnected.

So the whole point is that fourth house signify many aspects of human life – one of them is CAR!

Flat breast – or no sign of breasts – such challenges in a woman’s life occur when VENUS is malefic as well as fourth house also has negative aspects from RAHU or SHANI. Human world is vast – very vast – you may not know but there are millions of young girls and woman who just don’t have the kind of normal breasts that a normal woman has! And that becomes their problem – you see – every human beings has his/her set of problems – as long as you are in this material world – problems never retire – though someday you may!

And now because of the growing cases of flat breasts or absolutely no breasts – there is a whole medical business that has evolved across the globe that brings over the counter products that help women having flat breast to grow their breasts! Business opportunities are everywhere – you got a problem and a new business is born to help solve that problem! It is indeed a funny world! There are jokes all around – in your life, in my life – in everybody’s life – God indeed is joking!

God is always joking. Look at your own life – it is a joke! Look at other people’s lives, and you will find jokes and jokes and jokes. Seriousness is illness; seriousness has nothing spiritual about it. Spirituality is laughter, spirituality is joy, spirituality is fun. – Osho

The very first sign of real womanhood – a healthy woman is indeed in the quality of her breasts – and this is a very deep subject – it has many dimensions to it – the ancient Ayurveda specifically emphasis on the significance of breasts in woman’s life as they are not only connected with her sexuality but also with her overall well-being.

The fourth house is therefore connected to SUKH – meaning overall HAPPINESS. A woman having positive planets in the fourth house – positive aspects to the fourth house – positive fourth house lord placement in the chart is indeed a BLESSED WOMAN – she is a LAKSHMI – she brings prosperity and peace to wheresoever she goes – I prostrate before such a pious blessed woman.

However whenever fourth house is inhibited by RAHU, SHANI, KETU – there is a problem – a serious problem with the psyche of the woman – because fourth house also deals with the mindset – the overall psyche of the person!

There are many things to share – but for now enough.

Remember – the BRAND you choose while buying your brand new car – has more to do with YOU as a person. So stop looking at websites having loads of reviews about car models and brands because others reviews doesn’t matter – I always say – “Don’t tell me what Buddha says – tell me what you say – because you may go on repeating the words of Buddha but that is not going to make you a BUDDHA! You will become BUDDHA when you will EXPERIENCE yourself the BEYOND – the UNSEEN – the DIVINE.

Understand Gautam Buddha, but don’t be a Buddhist. Do not follow. Let the understanding be absorbed by your intelligence, but let it become yours. The moment it becomes yours, it starts transforming you. Until then it has remained Gautam Buddha’s, and there is twenty-five centuries distance. You can go on repeating Buddha’s words – they are beautiful, but they will not help you to attain what you are after. – Osho

Buddha’s words will help you attain only when those words become yours – when those beautiful words penetrate into your being – when you self-experience what Buddha says – then those words will become yours. Similarly until you self-experience a specific brand and how it co-relates with your destiny – you will not come to the TRUTH.

This sharing is specifically for my close followers and readers who keep asking about astrologically suitable Brands – I am certain that this small effort will help you all to find the most suitable brand and experience the truth by your own self-experience!

Soon I will be sharing the specific days that are suitable for buying your brand new car.

Stay tuned. And Let God Drive your life – GOD can do more with your life than you can!

Happy driving – drive safely.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

How Planets Influence Our Lives

All the stars and all the planets are within us and not on the outside — this is the first thing to remember -always.

The ancient Upanishads mention “ AHAM BRAMHASMI” meaning “ I AM THE UNIVERSE”. So it is obvious that whatsoever is in the outside Universe is also within me.

We — human beings are a whole “ universe” moving on two legs!

Reminds me of a small incident. A old woman was a devotee of a great spiritual master. Once a dog bite her legs. She told the incident to the master — she said “ I have been bitten by an animal”. The master asked “ By which animal — two leg animal or four leg animal?”

The question was symbolic. As long as we are NOT turning inwards as long as we remain focused on the outside — always comparing, always jealous, always focused on others — we remain just “ Two Leg Animal”.

You have dared to ask a very deep question. Only an intelligent person can dare to question that which nobody dares to.

Planets and Stars are within us. Now what does that mean?

Planet is Tatva. ( Essence).

Star is ( Nature of the Tatva)

Sign is the quality of the Tatva.

When somebody says “ Seema is a great dancer. And also a great singer.” – here the planet active is Venus. Venus is all about singing, dancing, love making.

Seema’s Venus must be good so it is natural that her Venus to be in the Nakshatra of Shattatarka. These are Rahu’s Nakshatra and very positive for Venus to attain fame. Also the nature of this Nakshatra is “pleasure seeking” — Bhogi. So you see and then comes the Quality — in her case the sign is Aquarius — it shows intellectual outlook — forward thinking. Friendly and a highly networking sign so you see this is how the whole galaxy is within us in the form of TATVA, SVABHAV AND GUNA!

The ancient seers simply mapped these attributes within human beings with the planets, stars and such external bodies outside in the Universe.

So you see — nothing precisely is on the outside. Everything is within us. That’s what Jesus says to his people. That’s what Buddha says. That’s what Mahavira says. That nothing is on the outside — what you seek is within you. God is NOT in the idols but within us.

Idol worship is simply to help you turn inwards. But people try to find God in idols when God dwells within.

God is NOT in the worshipped object, it is in the worshipper. It is not in the object to which you pray, it is in the innermost source from where the prayers come up. It is always within. – Osho

When Jesus was asked “When will the Kingdom Of God will come?” – Jesus answers “Kingdom of God is WITHIN you.”

Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. – Luke 17:21 (Bible)

The idols is just a form for the mind to turn inwards! Since common man needs some kind of form to motivate him to turn inwards, to make him prayerful — the idols were promoted by the Sanatan Dharma.

It is necessary to remember that all our experiences belong to form, to the manifest. We have not known anything that is not manifest, that does not have form. If we have loved, we have loved a form; if we have hated we have hated a form. All our attractions are related to form, and all our repulsions are related to form. Our friends and enemies are all in form; whatsoever we do is done with form. And so even to experience the formless (the divine) we have to give the formless some form. Of course, that form will be according to our own liking. Some will experience the formless in the form of Krishna Idol – some may experience it in the Buddha idol and some may experience it in Shiva or Ganesha idol! Pure formlessness cannot be seen directly by anyone. We don’t have the capacity to see it directly. The formless has to come to us bound in some form. The ídol became the form – experiencing the state of worship becomes possible through the idol – but instead of experiencing the state of worship we made the Idol as God – the Idol is NOT God – it is just a symbolic representation of the formless – the God Consciousness!

The formless is God Consciousness – some call it Krishna Consciousness, some call it Christ Consciousness, some call it Buddha Consciousness – what remains the same is CONSCIOUSNESS – whereas people give it a form by naming it based on their liking and faith.

The ‘chanting of God’s Name’ is also giving a FORM to your state of worshipping. The divine master Gondavalekar Maharaj used to say that chanting is the greatest MIRACLE and KEY to your spiritual success – and chanting the name of Rama, Krishna is giving form to the formless. Chanting can be done in form of any name that you love – Jesus, Muhammed, Mahavira, Buddha, Krishna, Rama – as long as you are chanting – you are actually working on the PLANETS (Tatva – essence) and STARS (nature) and SIGNS (Qualities – Guna) within you! Chanting therefore is the greatest spiritual practice and I love all those men and women who take to chanting – meditate through chanting.

Simply by chanting the holy name of Krishna – Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Harel Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare – a devotee of the Lord can approach the supreme destination easily and happily, but this destination cannot be approached by any other process of religion.

Sitting before an Idol – you can chant – that will expedite your progress in chanting the name of the Lord – however it is NOT a must that you should have an idol before you. The greatest master – BODHIDHARMA used to sit facing a BLANK WALL – and yet his spiritual height was equal to Gautama Buddha! And so it is good to have an IDOL but it is NOT a must to have an idol. But unfortunately people made the IDOLS as GOD when God is not in the idols but within you. The idol is just to help you become more prayerful, more meditative so that one day you experience the first glimpse of God within you — within your ❤️ heart.

The first glimpse of God has to be in the innermost shrine of your heart. If you have not seen Him there, you can go on talking about Him, but you will not ever be able to see Him anywhere. – Osho

Because people became too obsessed with idols and idol worship — God had to send His Messengers — Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira, Prophet Muhammed.

Muhammed wanted his followers to go beyond the idols and so he opposed idol worship. His intentions were good but look what his followers have done! The Muslims just went on destroying idols wheresoever they found — instead of overcoming idol worship they became too obsessed with idols — so much so that in the whole history of mankind nobody must have destroyed so many beautiful idols of Gods and Goddesses as the Muslims have!

This is how the mad world is. Prophet Muhammad was saying exactly that what the Upanishads were saying — that God dwells not in idols but within human beings — but look what his followers have done? They just remained where they are — obsessed with destroying the idols — when their master wanted them to go beyond the idols! Islam is a very spiritual religion to its core. That was the whole purpose of Prophet Muhammed. But very few Muslims could actually understand the essence of Islam and most of them were Sufis.

The very example of GANESH VISARJAN is a beautiful way that conveys the fact that the IDOL is just an IDOL and that is why we immerse it in the sea or river — that too after worshipping the same IDOL with so much love and devotion for 10 days! The whole concept of immersing the Ganesha idol that was worshipped for 10 days is a beautiful symbolic representation that the idol is left behind while the state of worship remains in your heart!

Worship is an immersion. You begin your journey from the idol, which is one end of the process; the ritual of worship is the method through which you proceed. As you go ahead, the idol is left behind and only the state of worship remains. If you stop at the idol, you do not know what worship is. If you move into the experience of worship, you will know the root of worship and the real purpose of the idol. – Osho

When people worship the Idol of Saturn — it is actually enhancing the qualities of Saturn within YOU. Whatsoever Planet or God you worship in the form of idol — the same TATVA, NATURE ad QUALITIES of the planet or God you worship is enhanced and empowered within your being!

Saturn brings trouble to a certain woman or man — so then why so? Because the Qualities, Tatva and nature of Saturn within her or him is disturbed — it needs a tonic and that tonic comes when he or she starts worshipping Lord Saturn. By worshipping Lord Saturn — they are enhancing the Saturn qualities within them because the real Saturn energy or any planet energy is within.

You always have a choice to make – worship the IDOLS of PLANETS or worship the IDOLS of GODS and GODDESSES. But when you worship – always remember that IDOL should not become a blockage in your spiritual progress – the IDOL is simply to bring you to the state of worship. When you reach the state of worship – then IDOL should be left behind – just the way Hindus do GANESHA VISARJAN – the GANESHA IDOL is left behind by immersing it in flowing water – while the GANESHA Worshipper remains in the state of worship – devotion – love!

All that you do on the outside is impacting your growth within. You see- it is all interconnected – when you worship Ganesha – you enhance the qualities of Lord Ganesha within you – when you worship the planet Jupiter – you enhance the qualities of Jupiter within you!

Some days ago – a man messaged me saying “Should I worship Rahu?”

I wondered that from all the planets and Gods and Goddesses – he found only RAHU to be worth of worshipping! It simply means that the quality of RAHU within him is pulling him towards worshipping RAHU! Whatsoever you are – you are pulled towards similar kind of energy!

I said to him “If that is what you feel than be it so!”

After all we should not stop anybody from worshipping anyone – as long as they are worshipping someone – it is good – at least they can reach the state of worship – of devotion!

All the answers are within you – all the universe is within you – you will ask exactly those questions that signify your state of being – your current state of spiritual growth – your level of understanding. That is why it is said that – the question matters more than the answer – because the question signify the questioner’s state of being!

Meditate every day – when you meditate – there is absolutely no need of any idol – if you have one – it is fine but if you don’t have then also it is good – because as mentioned – GOD is not in the idol – GOD is within you – and to experience the GOD within you – the IDOL works as a BRIDGE – a very effective bridge that help you reach the state of worship – the state of unconditional love – devotion – BHAKTI!

The path of love and devotion is the easiest way to attain the Divine. – Bhakti Sutras of Narada

All the planets and stars and the good qualities within you will start enhancing within you when you start walking on the path of DEVOTION (BHAKTI MARG)!

But who wants to listen?

People are just rushing to do rituals and what not – but those few – those chosen ones will start feeling thirsty for the LOVE of the LORD – and it is this THIRST that will eventually lead you to the higher realms of consciousness – and then there is no looking back – the road is clear and you are ‘ready’ to walk.

With every breath i plant the seeds of devotion. I am the farmer of the heart. – Rumi

Love. Devotion. Forgiveness. And living your life with ACCEPTANCE – these are the real keys to a progressive life – but to reach to this stage – to receive these beautiful keys – first you have to start turning inwards – first you have to start chanting the name of the lord – first you have to start being truthful to yourself!

Meditate.

Love to all my readers. Stay blessed.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Is Someone Large-Hearted Astrologically?

Nobody has become poor by GIVING! But to GIVE – you need to HAVE. And you always have a heart that beats with love and compassion! A compassionate heart touches millions of lives. Everybody has a heart – but not everybody has a LARGE HEART. And because not everybody has a Large or Big heart – not everybody is able to live a large life! Only if you have a BIG HEART – you will live a LARGE LIFE.

Nature (SVABHAV) is directly connected with your HEART. And it is your ASCENDANT sign that signify your Nature! Mind is directly connected with your Brain. It is the MIND that commands and the brain or the head follows! If you have to say “Thank You” – then first the mind should feel grateful only then will the brain agree and you will say “Thank You”. The mind is NEVER spontaneous – the HEART is always spontaneous. A man who speaks from the depth of his heart can never be ignored because the HEART is always right – always. The way of the heart is the way of courage. It is to live in insecurity; it is to live in love, and trust; it is to move in the unknown.

Life is of the heart. Life can only grow through the heart. It is the soil of the heart where love grows, life grows, spirit grows. All that is beautiful, all that is really valuable, all that is meaningful, significant, comes through the heart. The heart is your very center, the head is just your periphery. – Osho

To live in the head is to live on the circumference without ever becoming aware of the beauties and the treasures of the center. To live on the periphery is stupidity. To live in the head is stupidity. To live in the heart and use the head whenever it is needed is intelligence. But the center, the master, is at the very core of your being. The master is the heart, and the head is just a servant– this is intelligence. When the head becomes the master and forgets all about the heart, that is stupidity.

Intelligence is when your Head (intellect) is in tune with your Heart. Your heart can become a portable paradise – only when you start meditating everyday.

By the practice of meditation, you will find that you are carrying within your heart a portable paradise. – Paramahansa Yogananda

Calculative heads and people caught up in their mind cannot meditate – in the beginning they find it very difficult. However a man of heart – a woman of heart can easily start meditating – that is the whole importance of HEART – HEART meditations!

Mind is represented by Moon in Astrology. What is the point if the Moon is in the sign of Leo and Ascendant is Capricorn? Because the mind (Leo Moon) may have the traits of LEO but the NATURE is that of CAPRICORN (Ascendant)! And Capricorn is a very pragmatic stingy sign – so here the NATURE of the person itself is very stingy, pragmatic, and not as LARGE as his Leo Moon sign is. And so by nature such a person (having Leo Moon sign and Capricorn Ascendant) remains narrow minded, stingy, shrewd and not a large hearted person.

However now let us flip the same case – now you have a LEO ASCENDANT person having CAPRICORN MOON! Now the whole scenario changes – now you will have a man who has a BIG HEART because it is the ASCENDANT (NATURE) that matters more than the MIND (moon sign). It is necessary to remember that NATURE (SVABHAV) is a part of YOU – but the MIND is not natural – you are NOT born with the mind – mind is not natural – but your NATURE (Ascendant) is very natural.

Intelligence is of the soul. Intellect is of the mind. Mind is just garbage. Mind is that which has been given to you by others. The whole collection, the whole junkyard all kinds of people have been throwing in you – that is your mind. That mind continuously suffers from an inferiority complex, is bound to suffer: it has nothing of its own, it has no ground underneath its feet. – Osho

A man enslaved by his mind is always found in deep miseries. Whereas a follower of HEART is always found in his bliss!

Follow your heart, but check it with your head. – Steve Jobs

That’s intelligence – when intellect is in tune with your heart – intelligence is born.

The ASCENDANT is the direct NATURE of the person – a LEO ASCENDANT person by nature is a large hearted person. He will never ask anything for FREE and he will always be the first one to provide others for free! In the case of LEO ASCEDNANT and Capricorn moon sign – the person indeed is a GIVER but still not as BIG GIVER as a person having LEO ASCENDANT as well as LEO MOON SIGN.

The divine master Paramhansa Yogananda had Moon in Leo and Leo Ascendant and those who have known him – are aware of his large heartedness – indeed he was the Master of Givers!

There is a magnet in your heart that will attract true friends. That magnet is unselfishness, thinking of others first; when you learn to live for others, they will live for you. – Paramahansa Yogananda

Reminds me of a story – Once it happened – there was an old man – he was a great master and lived alone in his small house. One night – a thief broke into his house. He started collecting all that he could, it was becoming difficult for him to collect in that darkness. The old master switched on the lights – the thief was shocked – he started trembling – he thought now he will be send to the Police – he started crying – the old master said “Why you cry? I have switched on the lights so that you can take whatever you need from this house.”
The thief couldn’t understand – because never had he met someone like this old man. The old master stepped ahead and gave him some food to eat – the thief’s eyes became wet – he said “I will take some for my family – they are also starving from last two days.” The master said “I know….take this – take all of this.”
The thief said “But what about you? What will you eat?”
The master said “If God has taken care of you – then will he not provide for me – you don’t think much – it is getting cold outside – take my blanket – it will keep you warm.”
The thief left the house with a heavy heart. It is said that he gave up his profession of stealing and became a disciple of the master – when people asked “”What triggered your transformation? – the man said “Compassion.”

One who knows the power of Giving will never live a single day without giving to those who are in need!

Giving to others is really giving to oneself. If one knows this truth, would one ever remain without giving? – Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi

But only that man – that woman can actually GIVE – who has a LARGE HEART! Now let us see who is large hearted and compassionate by heart based on certain planetary placements – the following are some of the signs that signify a large hearted person – person having:

1. LEO ASCENDANT

2. ARIES ASCENDANT

3. SAGITARRIUS ASCENDANT

4. Three planets – Venus, Mercury, Mars together in the sign of LEO

5. Maximum or more planets placed in the Nakshatra of Magha, or Purva-phalguni

6. Jupiter in the second house with Leo as Ascendant

7. Venus in the second house with Leo as Ascendant

8. Ascendant Lord in the sign of Leo

The whole essence of the horoscope is based on what is more powerful – the ASCENDANT or the MOON!

If the MOON is more powerful – then the person though has a large heart – cannot express it to the fullest.

However if the ASCENDANT is powerful – then such a person is like a cool breeze – a song – a poem – a beautiful painting! Such a person can progress much on spiritual path especially if his or her chart is inclined towards spirituality.

How do you find – whether MOON is powerful or the ASCENDANT?

That is very simple – whenever MOON is in:

  1. 1, 4, 7, 10th house – the MOON is strong.
  2. Whenever RAHU is with MOON – the MOON is strong.
  3. Whenever MOON is with MARS – the MOON is strong.
  4. Whenever MOON is with VENUS – the MOON is strong.
  5. Whenever MOON is with MERCURY (worst conjunction) – the MOON is strong.

So such a person is totally caught in the clutch of his or her MIND – the material world may find this as a good sign – but in the world of spirituality – in the KINGDOM of GOD – such a person is not a suitable match – since this kind of person is simply enslaved by the MIND – and the MIND is a dangerous master. Buddha says enslave your mind before the mind enslaves you! In most cases when the MOON is strong – the person becomes a slave of his/her mind and then the noise – the quarrels – the jealousy – the SEXUAL LUST – everything follows. Remember – MOON (MIND) is very SEXUAL by nature. Remove the MIND – and SEX simply doesn’t exist! Have you seen a MAD PERSON – if a mad person is standing before a NAKED WOMAN – he will not feel anything – no erection and nothing – he will simply laugh like a child. He is a mad person – he has NO MIND. Now the same situation is with the SAINTS – the YOGIS – BUT – the difference is that they have overcome their MIND consciously – while the mad person has lost his mind by accident. Meher Baba – one of the greatest divine master transformed many mad men into enlightened being – and when sane people said “Why you spend so much time with mad insane men when sane people are available and they want your time?”

Meher Baba said “You don’t understand. To bring a sane person out of his sanity is very difficult. But to bring out a madman is very easy because in a way he is already out, but from the back door. He has tasted something of the outside; we have only to show him the right door and say, “Please don’t go out from the wrong door, go from the right door. Being out is perfectly right, but choose the right door.” And Meher Baba turned many mad people into enlightened people.

Do not listen to the voice of the mind. Listen to the voice of the heart. The mind wavers, the heart does not. The mind is the home of doubts, reasoning and theories. The heart when purified becomes the dwelling of the Beloved. Rid your heart of low desires, malice, selfishness and God will manifest in you as your true self. – Meher Baba

Men of heart and Women of heart are very special to GOD. In this vast human world – the majority is following the head while it is only few – maybe just a few million men and women are following their heart and it is these men and women who have made this planet a much better place to live!

Strong ASCENDANT along with WEAK MOON is a perfect sign of heartful man! When MOON is with KETU – with a positive setup and aspects – then it is a wonderful sign that the person someday can attain the state of BUDDHA – the state of NO MIND. In such a horoscope – the ASCENDANT is powerful and if the ASCENDANT is LEO then the person indeed is a large hearted man – he goes on sharing – to him sharing is caring. He understands the fact that the more he shares the more God provides! Such a man is indeed a gem of a person – a faithful person – a follower of heart.

When studying a specific horoscope – always ask yourself two important questions:

  1. The horoscope is inclined towards the MOON or ASCENDANT?
  2. The horoscope is inclined towards RAHU or KETU?

If you can find the answers then you can get to know the person whose horoscope you are studying – as if the person is completely scanned inside out – as if you have come to know what he/she is in the true sense!

The fragrance around you stays – not when you use expensive perfumes but when you start realizing the power of GIVING.

At The End Of The Day It’s Not About What You Have Or Even What You’ve Accomplished… It’s About Who You’ve Lifted Up, Who You’ve Made Better. It’s About What You’ve Given Back. – Denzel Washington

Salute to all LARGE HEARTED men and woman – continue to share – give – for you are the light – and the delight to this human world.

When you give – you simply give. Remember what Jesus said “I have in abundance – so it doesn’t matter who came early and who came late – I am going to give all the same reward simply because I have in abundance!”

And that is the whole essence of life – my fellows. It doesn’t matter whether you have 5 dollars or 5 rupees in your pocket – what matter is HOW RICH YOU ARE FROM WITHIN – HOW LARGE HEARTED YOU ARE FROM WITHIN!

RICHNESS is not based on how much bank balance you have – RICHNESS is based on how LARGE HEART you have – and those who have self-realized this beautiful truth – have never looked back – they have become a beautiful song – a dance!

Wealth comes, money comes, progress comes – all of these comes only when you have a large heart – when you are compassionate – when you have a certain depth of understanding. Real richness therefore FIRST have to be there WITHIN you – only then the heavens will shower all that you had wished for!

So work on YOURSELF – OPEN YOUR HEART. STINGY MEN and STINGY WOMEN are ugly – they are a burden on this planet – but I would like to see my readers – my followers become a blessing to this planet – expand your consciousness – don’t focus much on savings. Jesus says one who goes on saving – loses someday and one who is willing to lose – gains someday! Quite a strange mathematics – isn’t it? And yet it is true my fellows – but only a man of heart can understand the words of Jesus – the words of the master – he thinks of others first and because he thinks of others first – others think of him – first! Happiness is NOT readymade – it comes from your own actions.

Meditate.

Astrology: Spotting a Stingy Person

A stingy person is a burden to our planet – Mother Earth.

But the larger question is why a certain man or woman is so stingy?

Low income is NOT the answer – because I have met people who have had large hearts and who would NOT think even twice when it comes to spending money for a GOOD CAUSE – then if they have 10 Rupees or 10 Dollars in their pocket – they will give away half of it just to help a man survive – just to feed a man dying of starvation. BUT – a STINGY PERSON – he or she will give THOUSAND reasons – their MIND just goes on CLINGING to MONEY and this CLINGING NATURE eventually brings many miseries in the form of DISEASE or LOSS in their life.

However – still the question remains – why a certain man or woman is so stingy?

The answer is found in one word – “CLINGING” – the nature of clinging – the more you are clinging the more you will be stingy. Clinging nature simply won’t let you spend – you want to cling to your money – your wealth as much as possible. If possible you would have tied the whole bunch of money to your chest so that you always remain attached to your money! The more you are CLINGING – the more you become STINGY.

So now we have to see which entity in Astrology leads one to the nature of CLINGING – and those who have read my bestselling book “How to Overcome Rahu” – know the answer!

The answer is RAHU.

RAHU’s basic nature is of clinging. And Buddha says you only lose what you cling to! RAHU is the SOURCE of all your miseries because RAHU’s nature is of CLINGING and so the more you follow RAHU – the more RAHU is powerful in your chart – the more you will be clinging, the more you will remain ATTACHED to your possessions – be it wealth, be it power, be it status or be it your family – this nature of clinging – of being too attached creates the many miseries in your life – which you never realize because you remain in the right clutches of RAHU – you continue to cling…

Misery arises because we don’t allow change to happen. We cling, we want things to be static. That’s how misery arises. Nobody can be certain about the next moment – what to say about tomorrow? – Osho

Buddha says the ROOT OF SUFFERING is ATTACHMENT. Attachments or clinging nature eventually leads you to many emotional turmoil in life. You spend your whole life by being attached to your children or wife or husband – but you never really are happy – because the more you remain attached the more you continue to expect and the moment expectations come – you are ‘’in’’ for the greatest miseries of your life! Always remember – EVERY EXPECTATION IS A BONDAGE. It leads to frustration sooner or later.

Don’t ask the question, Why is there so much frustration in the world?” Ask ” Why am I so frustrated?” Then the whole dimension changes.. The World is frustrated – that is the fact. Then you go and try to find out why you are frustrated. You will find that it is because of your expectations. That is the seed, the root cause. Throw it out..!! – Osho

Throw it out – the seed of RAHU – the seed of ATTACHMENT – the seed of CLINGING.

But people are many – millions and millions of men and women around this planet – not everybody can understand the significance of this – not everybody can self realize the foolishness of clinging – and so we have more miseries in this human world than otherwise!

Let us now observe – certain placements that provide a glimpse of a perfect STINGY man or STINGY woman:

  1. MOON RAHU conjunction in the SECOND HOUSE
  2. MOON SATURN conjunction in the SECOND HOUSE
  3. Only SATURN alone in the SECOND HOUSE
  4. MERCURY RAHU in the SECOND HOUSE
  5. MERCURY SATURN in the SECOND HOUSE
  6. SECOND HOUSE LORD conjunction RAHU
  7. SECOND HOUSE afflicted by Saturn’s third aspect or Rahu’s aspect
  8. SECOND HOUSE LORD in SECOND HOUSE
  9. SECOND HOUSE LORD conjunction MOON
  10. SECOND HOUSE LORD conjunction SATURN
  11. SECOND HOUSE LORD conjunction MERCURY
  12. SATURN RAHU in SECOND HOUSE
  13. Only VENUS MERCURY in SECOND HOUSE
  14. Only VENUS SATURN in SECOND HOUSE
  15. Only VENUS MOON in SECOND HOUSE
  16. Only VENUS RAHU in SECOND HOUSE

You see – if you observe closely – then all the above mentioned placements signifying a STINGY person are primarily related with SATURN, RAHU, MERCURY, MOON, VENUS – because all these 4 entities has the nature of CLINGING by nature default.

Second house for many ascendants is also considered as MARAK – MARAK means deadly. Second house in the KAAL PURUSH Kundali is ruled by TAURUS – TAURUS the VENUSIAN SIGN is one of the most clinging zodiac sign – TAURUS is more attracted to the physical aspects of life – appearance, body size, muscularity, sexuality, family life, wealth – so you see the whole TAURUS sign and the SECOND HOUSE is all about the attachments to money, wealth, luxuries, family etc. And it is this attachment that eventually brings deadly (MARAK) experiences in your life – the root of suffering therefore is ATTACHMENT – says the Buddha!

Relationships break because you get too ATTACHED. And the moment you are too ATTACHED – EXPECTATIONS arise within you – and with the arrival of EXPECTATIONS – you start moving towards the many miseries of your life. LOVE between you and your partner exists as long as there are NO EXPECTATIONS.

The way of the love is the way of no-expectation. Love exists only when there is a total acceptance and no desire to change anything. – Osho

Such kind of LOVE that has NO EXPECTATION does exist in this human world. There are women and there are men who simply LOVE – they are perfectly aware of the fact that – WHEN YOU LOVE – YOU SIMPLY LOVE – then there are no expectations – then there is no effort to change the person you love – then you simply ACCEPT the person completely as he or she is!

Setbacks, frustrations and suicide cases are on the rise – because when you are trying to fulfil the expectations of others and not able to meet their expectations – you eventually end your life. A suicide is nothing but being a victim of other’s expectations or your own expectations! Your girlfriend expects something from you – you cannot fulfil her expectation and then the pressure starts building day in and day out and then you finally commit suicide. Your daughter is not willing to marry the person you like – she runs away and marries someone else whom you dislike – what happens then? Millions of fathers and mothers commit suicide – this is how they become victim of their own expectations!

Stop fulfilling expectations of others, because that is the only way you can commit suicide. You are not here to fulfill anybody’s expectations and nobody else is here to fulfill your expectations. Never become a victim of others expectations and don’t make anybody a victim of your expectations. – Osho

Always remember – when you spell those three wonderful words – ‘’I LOVE YOU’’ – you should realize the fact that true LOVE never expects anything in return. Love is happy when it is able to GIVE something – EGO is happy when it is able to TAKE something. Understand the difference – let your LOVE be of the higher altitudes – LOVE exists in many levels – let your love reach the highest level – the highest altitudes!

There are many, many layers, many planes of love. It all depends on you. If you are existing on the lowest rung, you will have a totally different idea of love than the person who is existing on the highest rung. Adolf Hitler will have one idea of love, Gautam Buddha another; and they will be diametrically opposite, because they are at two extremes. – Osho

Love exists in two extremes – your definition of love will be solely based on your level of understanding – your level of consciousness.

For Meera Bai and her love towards Krishna is beyond the words of expression.

For Saint Namdev – his love towards Vitthal is beyond the words of expression.

For Rumi – his love towards the beyond – the divine is simply impossible to express.

The love that happened between John and Jesus. Mahakasyapa and Buddha, Arjuna and Krishna is simply impossible to express in words – it is so great – so pure – so divine. The love that happens between the master and the disciple is simply beyond the world of words – only the heart can feel its divinity – its purity.

Mahakasyapa was the first enlightened disciple of Buddha. And it is important to note that Mahakasyapa never asked a single question to Buddha – there were five hundred other disciples of Buddha – and they all would ask him ‘’Why you never ask any question to the master?’’

And the answer Mahakasyapa gave is so beautiful so touching so enlightening in itself!

Mahakasyapa says ‘’Yes it is true that I came thousand miles walking to become a disciple of Buddha – but when I came – when I sensed HIS omnipresence, HIS aura, HIS peace, HIS bliss – I simply forgot all my questions – as if in SILENCE with the MASTER – the whole communication is happening and there is absolutely no need to ask any question! Just to be in HIS omnipresence – just to let HIS divine words penetrate into my being is more than enough.

And it is said that MAHAKASYAPA became the very FIRST DISCIPLE OF BUDDHA to attain enlightenment. But Buddha also had his own rules. And the first rule after attaining enlightenment was to leave him and travel to the faraway lands to spread the message – message of love – of the divine!

And Mahakasyapa loved Buddha so much that even after attaining enlightenment he would not let the master know. But can anybody hide anything from the master?? Never!

And so Buddha walked to the tree where Mahakasyapa was seated – and said “Mahakasyapa I know you have attained the highest peak – the peak of enlightenment – and now you cannot stay here – you have to go – you have to leave me – remember that is the rule.’’

Mahakasyapa fell at the master’s feet – and he started crying – tears started flowing from his eyes – through those flowing tears he could see the ever enlightened face of the Buddha – he could not control his love for the master – he cried like a child – but then Buddha raised him up and said ‘’Why you cry? I am with you. No matter where you are – but now you must leave – the light that you have experienced within you should be experienced by those who are thirsty – who are seekers – you should show them the way – Mahakasyapa – you have great responsibility.’’

Mahakasyapa bowed before the master and left – never to be seen again – Buddha never met Mahakasyapa again – but there was NOT a single moment that was spend without remembering the master – the Buddha!

The love between the master and the disciple is the indeed the greatest love story of all love stories and it is beyond the power of expression – it is so pure, so divine and so beautiful.

A stingy person is way too back – at the lowest rung of evolution.

Whenever you have more planets in Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn – the stinginess is prominently seen in the native. The only exception is when Jupiter also falls in one of these three signs – then the stinginess to a large extent is diminished.

After a long time – Mohan came to meet. And Mohan asked “ But why such a placement is seen – why certain men and certain women are by birth – STINGY by nature?’’

Mohan’s questions was valid. And the answer is simple.

Nobody is STINGY from the moment of birth – rather they have been STINGY all their past births and rebirths – it is just a carryover – it is not something new – it is in fact a continuation of what they were in the their last birth!

Paramhansa Yogananda beautifully puts the whole secret of birth cycle – the master says – whatsoever you are NOW is simply a continuation of what you were in your last birth – and so if you want to IMPROVE – if you want to enhance the good qualities within you – then this is the place to be.

Don’t depend on death to liberate you from your imperfections. You are exactly the same after death as you were before. Nothing changes; you only give up the body. If you are a thief or a liar or a cheater before death, you don’t become an angel merely by dying. If such were possible, then let us all go and jump in the ocean now and become angels at once! Whatever you have made of yourself thus far, so will you be hereafter. And when you reincarnate, you will bring that same nature with you. To change, you have to make the effort. This world is the place to do it. – Paramahansa Yogananda

This world – this birth you have got the opportunity to work on yourself – to expand your awareness – your consciousness by turning inwards – by moving into meditations, chanting.

Working consciously and with awareness on enhancing the good qualities within you is the true essence of Religion. QUALITIES is what the placement of your planets signify – so if you want to excel the quality of your planets then you should start enhancing self-awareness within you.

The purpose of religion is to control yourself, not to criticize others. How much am I doing about my anger, attachment, hatred, pride and jealousy? These are the things which we must check in our daily lives. – Dalai Lama

Swami Vivekananda was against religion that brings hurdles in the path of a seeker. He was against all organized religions.

If you want to be religious, enter not the gate of any organised religions. They do a hundred times more evil than good, because they stop the growth of each one’s individual development. – Swami Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda beautifully defines the true essence of RELIGION…..

Religion is not in books, nor in theories, nor in dogmas, nor in talking, not even in reasoning. It is being and becoming. Religions do not come from without, but from within. You are the highest temple of God; I would rather worship you than any temple, image, or Bible. – Swami Vivekananda

Swadharma is the true essence of RELIGION. Swadharma is derived from the words Swa meaning for oneself and Dharma (religion). Swadharma is the lawful conscious conduct of oneself based on one’s ability. The Bhagavad Gita states that if one accepts Swadharma, the actions that one performs becomes effortless. Executing your daily KARMA with consciousness is what SWADHARMA means in simple words. To live with AWARENESS – to live consciously – to act consciously is what comprises the true essence of SWADHARMA. Swami Vivekananda simplifies the meaning of religion further in his own unique way –

The Greatest Religion Is To Be True To Your Own Nature. Have Faith In Yourselves. – Swari Vivekananda

The more you come close to awareness – the more you will be willing to LET GO. Then the nature of CLINGING (RAHUISH) slowly starts fading away – and once it starts fading away then you start becoming generous – then you are NO MORE STINGY – then you are evolving to the next stage!

Below the level of STINGINESS – there is one more level – probably the LOWEST LEVEL OF MANKIND and that is ASKING FOR FREE. If you are really poor – if cannot afford to pay then it is understandable – but there are men and women – who have but still they ask for FREE – such souls are the cheapest souls and GOD is really turned off by such FREE MONGERS. In fact these FREE MONGERS continue to TORCHER GOD day and night – they will say all kind of prayers and what not – but they never are willing to change – they are never willing to LET GO – they are always CLINGING to money as if after death everything – every penny they have accumulated is going to come with them. The worst type of FREE MONGERS are those who have but still they make faces and say ‘’ I cannot afford’’ – whether to laugh or cry to such ignorance is indeed a question in itself!

But that is how this vast human world is – there are all kind of men and women – STINGY, FREE MONGERS, BLAME EXPERTS – they just like to blame others so that they feel good! But do you know – blaming never helps – it becomes the greatest obstacle to your growth!

When you blame others, you give up your power to grow.

It is only when ACCEPT your MISTAKE that you LEARN from your MISTAKE and that is the surest way to grow – to evolve – to mature as a much better person than you currently are!

Always remember – when we come in this human world – we come with all possibilities to GROW WITHIN – in fact human birth in itself is a gift from God – so that you can use to for your SELF GROWTH!

But who is listening? Who is interested in SELF GROWTH? People are more interested in SEX, SEXUALITY, NUDITY – and that is how millions of souls waste this golden opportunity that comes rarely – the HUMAN BIRTH! Men and so called celibates and nuns and monks are interested more in SEX than in GOD – TRUTH is HARD – and because it is HARD – it is fiercely opposed and condemned – it is crucified.

Out of my three hundred books only one book concerns sex, and that, too, not in its totality. The name of the book is From Sex to Superconsciousness. Just the beginning of it is concerned with sex; as you go deeper in understanding it moves towards superconsciousness, towards samadhi. Now that is the book which has reached to millions of people. It is a strange phenomenon: my other books have not reached to so many people. There is not a single Hindu, Jaina saint, mahatma in India who has not read it. It has been discussed criticized, analyzed, commented upon in every possible way. Many books have been written against it – as if that is the only book I have written! – Osho

Out of 300 beautiful books – just the book on SEX was discussed by millions – look how shallow this human world is!

But that is not how this whole human world is – my fellows. There are still hundreds of men and women across this world who are thirsty for the love of the Lord – who are NOT believers but SEEKERS. Buddha wants seekers and not believers – the master is always in search of seekers because only a seeker can DARE TO JUMP into the unknown – he is fired up – his intensity becomes the sole key to his spiritual success! Kabir is always searching those who have INTENSE DESIRE of experiencing GOD – LOVE – the DIVINE!

Once Sri Yukteshwar Giri – the Guru of Paramhansa Yogananda said to his master ‘’ I will not to go the Kumbh Mela – there are many fake babas and sadhus there.’’

The master smiled and said ‘’ You are right – but along with those FAKE sadhus and babas – there are also REAL GEMS – REAL SAINTS – always remember this human world is a mixture of SALT and SUGAR – it is for you to consciously select the sugar from the salt – you should therefore go to the Kumbh Mela – else those who have come to seek the TRUTH – those who are TRUTHFUL will have to go back home disappointed.’’

It is said that Yukteshwar Giri’s eyes were filled with tears – he bowed before the master and said ‘’I am sorry – I will never miss the Kumbh Mela.’’ And he never missed it – as long as it was possible – he attended the Kumbh Mela.

Always remember – you have to raise your level of consciousness – only then you can separate the sugar (good men of heart) from the salt (Fake hypocrite men/women).

No Problem Can Be Solved From The Same Level Of Consciousness That Created It. – Albert Einstein

Stinginess comes from ignorance – and the more your are ignorant the more you will go on CLINGING. That is the nature of RAHU. That is the whole essence of RAHU. RAHU leads you to CLINGING – to ATTACHMENT. And KETU moves you into the wonderful state of DETACHMENT. Someday when you get some time – you should read my book ‘Why Ketu Can Heal’’.

Always remember the whole story of human life is caught up between the two axis – RAHU and KETU. ATTACHMENT and DETACHMENT -and so your destiny – your birth and next birth is totally based on what level of evolution you currently are and where you are heading towards and to what end you are inclined to – RAHU or KETU?

Your answer will decide the course of your destiny. Choose wisely – because what you choose is what you become.

Meditate every day. What mantra to chant – remedies and much more is coming your way in the form of my new book publishing worldwide – this July 2021. Stay tuned.

And stay safe. God bless.

Astrological Causes Behind Diabetes

Whenever Jupiter is Strong in the birth chart and Moon is either afflicted by Rahu or Venus or KETU — diabetes or blood pressure catches the native sooner or later.

And the reason is simple, very simple. In fact truth has always been simple. Love has always been simple. God has always been simple. But it is the mind that complicates life. The heart simplifies, the mind complicates. A man who follows his heart ❤️ someday meets God. But a man who follows his mind is so ‘busy’ that he has no time to meet his wife so God is a very far away question!

The reason is simple — Jupiter is a BIG EATER. A jolly man. Jupiter is a perfect foodie. And moreover Jupiter has deep craving for sweets, mithai, laddoo, pedha, pastries, cakes, gulab jamun, ras malai — looks like I am also a Jupitarian. Anyways so Jupiter has a sweet tooth. And on top of that if you have a obsessive mind ( Moon with Rahu) or a totally no care not bothered mind ( Moon with KETU) or if you have an intense pleasure seeking mind ( Moon with Venus) then imagine what is going to be the end result — DIABETES!

ASTROLOGY can be interesting but only if you have a ❤️ heart and you follow the voice of your ❤️ heart.

I tell you and to all my followers and readers that only a MAN OF HEART can stumble upon this undesirable friend — DIABETES! Because he is so sweet — he had been such a fool — God’s fool that he just lived his life to the fullest — ate all kind of sweets, and also shared with so many people. So many people blessed him in return — so much of blessings and so much of sweetness of soul that insulin fell short!

That is why during the old days — diabetes was directly connected with Richness, generosity. The common belief was that only a RICH man can have diabetes. This RICHNESS was actually connected with the RICHNESS ( Generosity) of his ❤️ heart!

This Generosity comes with a strong Jupiter placed in 1,2,4,7,10,11th house of the chart and it scales high especially when Leo is the Ascendant or most planets are in Leo.

Then more GRAND, the more Generous, the more Large hearted you are, the more is the possibility of coming face to face with this world famous friend — Diabetes.

After all at some stage some disease is bound to catch you all — and Diabetes is by far the most manageable one than the rest only if you ACCEPT it with totality.

Yesterday a man said “ I got diabetes”

I said “ then why are you so sad?” What if you had got cancer? And not diabetes!?”

So you see — be grateful that you got a better deal because there are millions and millions out there who are suffering from many worst diseases.

A grateful ❤️ heart is a beautiful heart.

I tell specifically to all my followers and readers — the moment you ACCEPT your diseases with an open heart and the moment you express your GRATITUDE towards God — 99% of all your worries and health problems will start HEALING. You will start getting better and better — you will get into a good shape, you will start looking fresh and then you will start wondering if you are the same person!

Life can change, change is the nature of life — the larger question is ‘’ Are you willing to change?”

Rumi says “When I was clever I wanted to change the world. But now I am wise and I am changing myself”

You have let change happen within yourself and you will be able to do so — only when you learn to live your life in SURRENDER. Krishna says to Arjuna — Surrender to ME and I will take care of all your worries. Jesus says to Peter, the fisherman “ Follow Me and I will make you the fisher of men.” Buddha says to Ananda “ Just listen to my words and those words will transform you inside out.” And Ananda followed Buddha for 40 years!

Everything is possible — the real question is “ whether you are Ready to Surrender — whether you are willing to let God drive your life?”

Your answer will decide the course of your destiny.

❤️ Love to all my followers.I just realized that it has been over 4 years of journey on this wonderful platform — Quora. I never intended to be here — one afternoon just came here by accident and then the rest is history! Reminds me of Neem Karoli Baba — he often used to say that “ One goes in search of something and finds another” — in life many wonderful events happen by accident. My coming to this forum is also an accident — a beautiful accident!

It is getting late and now it is time to close my eyes. Usually we believe that we see through our eyes but in in reality we SEE through our Mind! It is the mind that discriminates and that is how people deny to give water to a thirsty crow because he is black ugly!

You see that is how people SEE — not by eyes but through their Mind.

Enough for today.

Some day you all should read my book “No Mind”.

Meditate.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.🙏

Psychic Mind Conjunctions in Astrology

Psychic mind is a double edge sword. If you can put it to good cause then it may prove to be an asset else generally it is self-destructive.

Rahu conjunction Moon is the most prominent sign of a psychic mind especially if there is connection with the 8th or 12th house.

Sun Moon Mercury is another conjunction that can lead to a psychic mind but here the person becomes too strong head and suffers a lot mentally in life.

Always remember — suffering is mental.

Pain is physical; suffering is mental. Beyond the mind there is no suffering. Pain is essential for the survival of the body, but none compels you to suffer. Suffering is due entirely to clinging or resisting; it is a sign of our unwillingness to move on, to flow with life. – Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

Retrograde Mercury with conjunction Moon is the most terrible placement and brings forth a psychic mind.

Retrograde Venus with Moon and Retrograde Mars is yet another conjunction that bring immense psychic-ness in SEXUAL acts. Person just gets into SEX without thinking much and also is always inclined in trying out new sex postures. It is said that Vatsyayan the author of KAMASUTRA listed around 84 sexual postures but to a person having Venus Moon Mars conjunction even this is not enough — they continue to explore new sexual postures — the bed partner may call such a person psychic however that is how they are — always interested in sex and thinking a lot about sex. Though breakup and cheating in relationships is something always happens in their life. But they continue with their sexual quest — they are made to enjoy sex as much as they can!

Retrograde Mercury with Moon is also a good sign of a psychic person.

Basically whenever Mercury is retrograde, whenever Moon is with Rahu, whenever Moon is with Sun ( Amavasya Born), whenever Ascendant lord is retrograde — remember that you are dealing with a psychic person.

Once it happened — when I was in college, a classmate — a young girl had come with me for attending a Religious function in a very ancient temple. Incidentally outside the temple was a street vendor and he was an old man selling garlands and coconuts to devotees visiting the temple. And he was a close friend of mine. Yes he was in his 50s and I must be 20 but I always have had old friends — wise friends and they somehow seem to be drawn towards me. And so this old man watched the young girl accompanying me and the next day when I went alone to meet him, he said “ That girl looks psychic to me.”

I was shocked because he never used to be so blunt and straight. But he was right — that girl was indeed a psychic. Her Moon was in conjunction with Sun and Mercury and her Ascendant lord was in the 12th house with Retrograde Venus!

Time passed by and after a decade when I met her accidentally — I got to know that she had three divorces, four relationships and now she was suffering from psychic attacks and insomnia.

I remembered that old man — he must be something and he was also very fond of me just the way many are!

Once it happened — I was studying in 11th grade. The classroom was packed, the class teacher was teaching when suddenly the school peon came and said ‘’Madam, someone has come to meet Addittya Tamhankar. He says — it is urgent.”

The teacher said “ I can’t let him leave the classroom. Ask the man to wait for sometime.”

The peon stepped ahead and whispered something in the teacher’s ear. The teacher’s face became pale white as if she was trembling with fear. She said “ Okay, I allow Addittya to leave. Addittya you can go and meet the man.”

I was wondering who could have come to meet me. Because my father had expired long back when I was 14 and my mother had expired when I was 4 years old. So who must have come to meet me.

I just strolled outside the school gate and there was this man — 6 feet tall, heavy body builder. He was the local DON of that locality. And he rushed towards me, and said “ I know you are an Astrologer and I have heard a lot about you from your class mates.”

I wondered how come I became so famous. It was true that I was studying Astrology and also predicting but I never knew that my predictions would become so popular that a local DON has come to seek my guidance, my consultation. And I was 20 at that time.

Standing on that crowded street — I looked into his chart that he had brought and it was a matter of Love Relationship! I said “Bhai Love matter hai. Seems you are in love.”

The Don or Bhai quickly responded smiling “ Yes yes you said it right. I am in love.”

The Don was in love with a woman. He said ‘ I will do anything but you tell me whether she will be my wife.’

I could look into his eyes — he was in love but he also was a psychic — his Mercury was retrograde and so was his Venus. I said to him “ You want to hear the truth.”

He said “ Yes. I have come all the way just to hear the truth from you. Don’t worry. Just tell me the truth.”

I said “ You will never be able to marry this woman. But you can have a relationship. Marriage is not a good choice for you. Never marry in life.”

Bhai became emotional. But somehow he controlled his emotions and said “ Thank you. I will remember your message. And if you face any problem with anyone — you can always contact me. Here is my visiting card.”

I left for my classroom. Already I had skipped one classroom session. I never had to contact that Don but wheresoever he is — he must be in good state if he would have listened to my message and remained unmarried.

Pressure from society and parents come — they all keep saying “ Get married” but marriage is not the only choice. Time has come when marriages are no more MANDATORY and couples will live together without marrying — as long as you live as a couple without marrying — your 5th house and 11th house is active. The moment you get married — 7th house and 1st house gets activated. So if 7th house is not positive or 7th lord is not positive then avoid marriage and embrace a live in relationship — that way love will continue to blossom with you and your partner — you will remain love birds!

Always remember — Marriage is Not the only choice. Love is enough. As long as you are in love with each other — it is more than enough!

Many married couples feel that the love that was in abundance before marriage — has started fading away. This is because — 5th is the house of Love affairs and the moment love affair changes into a marriage — the 7th house takes over and the 7th is union — a deal — a marriage is a legal deal. Isn’t it ? That is why when you no more can remain in a marriage — you have to first break the deal — legally to which the world calls ‘ divorce’!

But a relationship has no legalities involved. You can have multiple breakups yet nobody is going to address you as a ‘ divorcee’!

Every coin has two sides. Relationship has its good and bad sides. While Marriage also has its good and bad sides. Someday will share more on this.

It is necessary to remember that psychic-ness is not always bad — it can be a great asset if the conjunction that I mentioned has a positive aspect of Jupiter. Then a good psychologist is born. A good hypnosis expert is born. A good magician is born.

Still if you ask me then those who have been following me for many years will understand that good or bad — psychic mind is a poor substitute to a normal mind that can be easily turned inwards. Maturity comes faster to a normal mind then to a psychic mind.

Reminds me of an incident that happened in the omni presence of Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi.

A cat ate the squirrel. However, her small infant kids – the baby squirrels were somehow able to escape from the cat’s dangerous claws. Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi was observing closely – he quickly put those baby squirrels in a small cage – so that they can be protected until they mature – until they ‘grow-up’.
Bhagavan then turned to his devotees and disciples and calmly said
“These poor little squirrels do not have the maturity to know the dangers of the outside world, that if it goes out, the cat will make a meal of them. When they get that maturity, they will go hide inside by themselves. Until they get the maturity, we have to keep putting them inside. It is the same thing with our mind. Our mind does not know that if it goes to the outside world, there is nothing but suffering. It keeps running out in ignorance. When it gets the maturity, it will go inside by itself. Until then, it is our job to put it inside with effort -which we do in meditation.”

How beautifully and with such a simple example – the divine compassionate master revealed the significance of MEDITATION! Deeply touched by His Holiness Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi.

The whole purpose of meditation is to overcome the monkey mind. And so on top of that if one has a psychic mind then it becomes more difficult for the person to go beyond the mind.

Any qualities related to the mind – powerful mind, psychic mind, strong mind makes no sense especially when it comes to embarking on the Spiritual Journey!

Spiritual journey begins when you start moving beyond the mind.

Only One Thing Has To Be Remembered: The Mind is the World — and going Beyond the Mind is the Beginning of God. – Osho

And so when you ask about psychic mind – or anybody asks the same question – it simply means that the person is too much caught up in his or her mind – which is not a good sign if you really want to progress spiritually!

Reminds me of a story.

Once it happened – a man came to meet the master – Lao Tzu and said “ My master is a great psychic man. What do you say about your master? What can your master do? What miracles can he perform?”

Lao Tzu smiled and asked “What miracles your master has been doing?”

The man said “One day he told me to go to the other bank of the river, and I stood there with a piece of paper in my hand. The river was very wide, almost one mile. He was standing on the other bank and from there he started writing with a fountain pen, and the writing came on my paper. This I have seen, I am a witness! What can your master do?””

Lao Tzu said “My master does greater miracles than this. This is nothing. When he is hungry he eats, when he is sleepy, he goes to sleep.

The man said “What are you talking about? You call these miracles? Everybody is doing that!”

Lao Tzu said “Nobody is doing that. When you sleep you do a thousand and one things. When you eat you think a thousand and one things. When my master sleeps he simply sleeps: no tossing, no turning, not even a dream. He simply sleeps, he is totally in sleep. Only sleep exists in that moment, nothing else. And when he feels hungry he eats. He is always wherever he is. He lives moment to moment – he is always in the present moment.”

The man was puzzled. He said “I cannot see yet what there is in this.”

Lao Tzu said “But this is the miracle, the greatest miracle!”

To be in the present moment – 100% is indeed the greatest miracle.

When you are here and now… not jumping ahead, the miracle has happened. To be in the moment is the miracle. – Osho

What is so great about writing from one bank of the river to the other bank? What is the point? A psychic takes great interest in such ‘plays’ – a Buddha, Jesus, Mahavira will never waster their time in such plays of the mind – they are the masters – the real masters!

It is said that a man went to Ramkrishna Paramhansa (the Guru of Swami Vivekananda) and said “My master is a great man. He can walk on water.”

Ramkrishna said “ That is foolishness. I can just pay two paisa (two cents) to the ferryman and he can take me to the other side of the river. How many years your master had practiced to perform such miracle?”

The man said “18 years”

Ramkrishna laughed and said “This is too much. Just two paisa (two cents) is the value of this. Your master is a fool. Go and tell him that he should not waste his life this way. Make him aware. It can be done so easily.”

And this is so significant. This is how all the psychic men and women spend their life in fancies of doing such trivial miracles – when the real miracle is to BE HERE NOW!

Existence knows nothing of future and nothing of past; it knows only the present. Now is the only time and here is the only space. – Osho

A psychic mind is a poor mind – it cannot understand the simplicity of life – it cannot understand that God is simple, Truth is simple. The psychic master spend 18 years just to perform the miracle of walking on water! Isn’t that stupidity?

And we have many such stupid among us – who miss the point and that is how they go on missing life – what can be done in just 2 cents – the psychic mind spends 18 years for it!

A psychic mind is a fast mind – and a fast mind is a sick mind.

A mind that is fast is sick. A mind that is slow is sound. A mind that is still is divine. – Avatar Meher Baba

A man or a woman comes in this human world with a psychic mind because in their past births they have been in the same state of mind – a psychic mind!

But you can stop this unending cycle of births and rebirths of psychic mind – when you start turning inwards – when you start following the word of the Master – when you take to meditations – it is a slow process – because you have done much damage to your mind from many past births – it is going to take time – GOOD THINGS ALWAYS TAKE TIME – the larger question is whether you are willing to JUMP within – whether you are willing to start meditating every day and whether you are willing to fight back the many temptations that your psychic mind brings along – if you are – then this birth can be the turning point of your life!

Many times it happens – you are in search of someone or something and you end up meeting something that is more beautiful than what you were searching for!

Often one goes for one thing and finds another. – Neem Karoli Baba

Always remember – all miracles and all psychic mind ‘propagandas’ are ego trips. There is no truth in it.

Ramkrishna Paramhansa used to say Äll miracles are EGO trips!

And this is so true – so true. Only my few close followers can relate to this ultimate truth that Ramkrishna so compassionately shares with us.

Always remember – a real man of religion is a miracle and His miracle is very subtle.

The real miracle starts happening when you start asking yourself – the question “WHO AM I?”

Who am I? – Many don’t even come to realize the significance of this question. Your spiritual journey begins only when you start asking yourself – Who am I?

It is an insult to your Self to be born, live, and die without knowing the answer to the mystery of why you were sent here as a human being in the first place.

Retrograde Mercury, Moon with Rahu, Moon with Sun, Moon with Retrograde Mercury – these and many such conjunctions that has no aspect from Jupiter are a sign of psychic mind – but with consistent efforts – by turning inwards – by spending quality time with your SELF – by meditating every day – chanting the name of the Lord – you can overcome this psychic mind.

There is always 1% space left by GOD – 99% astrology can be accurate but 1% is the space that is specifically left for you to make a positive change within yourself – because when you change – only then will your destiny change for good.

Yesterday I Was Clever, So I Wanted To Change The World. Today I Am Wise, So I Am Changing Myself. – Rumi

Always believe in the Power of Possibility – everything is possible – the larger question is – Are you Ready?

Meditate. Turn inwards.

Blessing to all my close followers. Stay connected and stay blessed.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Attracting a Pisces Man

Take him to watery places – seashores. Watery places such as seashores and rivers and beautiful lakes turn on Pisces men and women. They just love water and they also love emotional people because they too are very emotional – and often takes a lot of time to make decisions!

However the real answer is when you LOVE – when you are very NATURAL – when you are BEING YOURSELF – then the man or woman whom you love – will definitely be pulled towards you – if he or she is also a follower of heart and a good heart person!

On a higher level – when you TURN IN – then the whole world TURNS ON! The more you meditate – the more you turn inwards – the more you flow with your life – the more you will be like a breeze and a cool breeze always turn on the person to whom it touches!

Be like a breeze, be like a flowing river – and you will reach your destination – your wish will be granted.

When you are REAL – when your LOVE is REAL – when you are BEING YOURSELF – natural – then LOVE finds a way – always remember, it all begins with YOU.

LOVE is the BRIDGE between YOU and EVERYTHING.

LOVE to all my readers, followers and fellow travelers.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Aspects vs Conjunctions in Astrology

Conjunction is Marriage of two energies coming together. If these two energies share a common bond — if their essence ( Tatva) is in harmony then such conjunction or marriage proves beneficial for the native.

Mercury Venus or Jupiter Mars or Sun Mars or Jupiter Sun are some of the fine examples of a conjunction or marriage in harmony.

However conjunction or marriage between VENUS JUPITER is the most worst conjunction in Astrology. Similarly MERCURY JUPITER is also NOT a positive conjunction for spiritual progress.

Similarly Rahu Moon or Rahu Mercury or Rahu Venus and the most worst of all conjunctions — Rahu Mars and Rahu Saturn Conjunction is NOT a positive conjunction and brings certain miseries in natives life.

Negative conjunction basically happens when two opposite energies like Jupiter and Venus come together. While one is a holy learned priest, the other is a romantic woman(Venus). Who gets more afflicted? Of course — the priest ( Jupiter).

Remember every Conjunction is a developed TATVA — essence within the individual.

One of the most beautiful ❤️ conjunction is the conjunction that happens between Saturn and Jupiter. Interestingly most of them having this conjunction are found to be spiritual by nature and they are my favorite.

Aspects is basically just the way there are people who SUPPORT AND MOTIVATE YOU while there are people who find happiness by causing HARM to you! Similarly aspects are either supportive or destructive. Aspect is the play of your past karma — when bad aspects come your way it simply means that you past bad karma has come chasing you and when good aspects come your way — it simply means that your past life good karma have come to reward you!

Reminds me of Swami Vivekananda. Swami Vivekananda was once asked “ How past karma find you?”

Swami smiled and said “ Just the way a calf recognizes his or her mother among thousands of cows similarly your karma recognizes you and comes rushing towards you — then no matter where you are — it will find you just the way a calf finds her mother!

Aspects is karmic based.

Conjunction is a Tatva — a very deeply evolved Tatva ( essence) from many past birth karmas.

The whole focus therefore has to be on improving or enhancing the conjunction and it happens only through deep faith in God, devotion and love.

But who wants to listen?

But my answer is for my close followers. They can understand — they can relate and it is relating that matters. You will relate based on your level of understanding!

Relating is always beautiful than relationship. Relationship is a closed window. Relating is always open — you can relate with many and many can relate with you — there is no possessiveness in relating and love blossoms only when you relate more with your partner.

Your relationship can survive as long as you and your partner relate with each other! Focus on relating and not on relationship. For love ❤️ will continue to blossom between you and your partner when you are able to — relate.

Live young. Live free and let there be a Let Go!

Love to all my followers. On the auspicious occasion of Hanuman Jayanti — wishing you all a wonderful day and a blissful experience.

Meditate.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.🙏

Mars-Saturn Conjunction Effects

At a given moment — millions of babies are born with Saturn Mars conjunction across this vast human world. So does that mean that every Saturn Mars conjunction person will do bad? Does that mean that this conjunction is an unholy conjunction? The answer is a big NO.

We all have a sharp edge knife in our house. But it all depends on which place the knife is kept? If the knife is placed in the Kitchen — then it becomes a great asset. But if the same knife is placed in the bedroom or living room then it can cause harm! So you see the Knife is NOT at fault — it all depends on where the Knife is placed — with whom it is placed.

Similarly Saturn Mars conjunction work. Yes — it is a sharp edge knife but you CANNOT generalize it as bad because it all depends on where this “knife” is placed — how it is aspectes — which house lordship it beholds — so many details go into it before you conclude whether the ‘knife’ is useful or harmful.

This July 2021 — in my new upcoming book — I will be sharing many more insights on Mars and Saturn. If you ask me — then for the larger interest of all my followers and readers — I want to specifically mention that from positive perspective if we observe this great energetic conjunction then we will find someone as brave as the FIRST PESHWA — Balaji Vishwanath Bhatt — the father of Bajirao PESHWA. Balaji Vishwanath Bhatt had Saturn Mars conjunction. Hillary Clinton had Saturn Mars conjunction — in fact she was the very first woman to participate in the US Presidential race! This conjunction works wonders in a woman chart — they are rebels, fighters and always happy to take the Lead!

Much more in my new upcoming book…follow me on my Quora Space and always remember that every conjunction has a purpose to it — and so we should not be so fast in judging it rather we should be more of an observant.

“ Observation without Evaluation is the highest form of intelligence.” – Jiddu Krishnamurti

Judging is ugly. Observing is beautiful.

Love to all my readers and followers. Stay safe. Stay blessed and remember — God Loves You.

God is Love. And Love ❤️ is Real. Spread love, share love and you will receive Love. Happiness is NOT readymade — it comes from your own actions!

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.
