iPhone 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 iPhone!

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.

“You can plan for a hundred years. But you don’t know what will happen the next moment.”
– 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.

Choice matters.

Life at every moment gives you a CHOICE. And you are always free to make a CHOICE – but you are not free from the consequences of the CHOICES that you make in your life.

“Man faces much greater choices because his consciousness is much more evolved. All choices are open to man. The more conscious man becomes, the more his choices will lead him towards happiness; the more unconscious he is, the closer he will move toward misery.”
-Osho

I appreciate your question – it has come naturally to you and what comes naturally is ‘intelligence’.

CAR and HOME – for every person – as long as he or she lives in this material world – these two entities matters a lot. Movement (Car/Bike) and SHELTER (HOME) forms the major part of human life.

In fact – HOME cannot be sold – and it should not be sold – as it provides stability.

But CAR is something that you need to RESELL after few years – and there is a lot of significance to this – NEVER continue to use a CAR for more than 5 years. After 5 years – you should upgrade your CAR – upgrading your vehicle positively impacts VENUS in your birth chart.

In India – as far as I know – the following Car Brands do well in the Indian market:

1. MARUTI SUZUKI
2. Hyundai
3. Honda
4. Renault
5. Volkswagen
6. Tata
7. Mahindra
8. Mercedes
9. KIA
10. NISSAN
11. TOYOTA

The answer to your question is found in the NAKSHATRAS.

Each BRAND NAME begins with a specific LETTER –

For Example – MARUTI SUZUKI begins with MA. In Hindi it sounds – मा

मा letter or Akshar comes under the influence of MAGHA NAKSHTRA. MAGHA NAKSHTRA is ruled by KETU.

When a child is born in a HINDU family – his or her NAME is decided based on the MOON SIGN or NAKSHATRA. Precisely the NAME of the child should be based on the NAKSHATRA LEVEL – as that is more accurate and effective than RASHI or Zodiac Sign.

Vedic Astrology guides and helps you to select the appropriate LETTER for naming your CHILD – this in itself shows the SIGNIFICANCE of LETTER as per the NAKSHATRA.

Now for the benefit of my followers and readers – let us see WHICH NAKSHATRA rules the CAR BRANDS in INDIA:

1. MARUTI SUZUKI मा – MAGHA (Ruler – KETU)
2. Hyundai – ह्यु – PUSHYA (Ruler – SATURN)
3. Honda – हो – PUSHYA (Ruler – SATURN)
4. Renault – रे – SWATI (Ruler – RAHU)
5. Volkswagen – वो – MRIG (Ruler – MARS)
6. Tata – टा – PURVA PHALGUNI (Ruler – VENUS)
7. Mahindra – मा – MAGHA (Ruler – KETU)
8. Mercedes – MAGHA (Ruler – KETU)
9. KIA – कि- MRIG (Ruler – MARS)
10. NISSAN – नि – ANURADHA (Ruler – SATURN)
11. TOYOTA – टो – UTTARA PHALGUNI Ruler – SUN)

Interestingly – the leading number one CAR BRAND – MARUTI is ruled by MAGHA NAKSHATRA. So you see – MAGHA brings your ahead of all – it is the ROYAL THRONE – you cannot remain behind – you will always remain at the TOP. MARUTI always remains at the TOP – when it comes to Indian Car Industry.

The world famous MERCEDES BRAND also is connected to MAGHA Nakshatra (REGULUS STAR) – the ROYAL THRONE.

MAGHA NAKSHATRA is directly connected to ROYAL lifestyle. It is called REGULUS STAR in Western Astrology – it is the BRIGHTEST STAR in our Galaxy. So basically – they STAND OUT. MARUTI stands out in the Indian Market. Mercedes stand out in the Global Market. MAGHA always stand out – but the QUESTION that you should ask before Buying a MARUTI BRAND CARD or MERCEDES BRAND CAR is – WHETHER KETU is beneficial for you? Whether KETU is placed positively in your Rashi/Ascendant Birth Chart? And this is very significant before you make the final CHOICE.

When making a choice – first ask yourself “Which brands you want to shortlist – after taking test drive of all available brands in the budget that you want to buy? That way the ASTROLOGICAL evaluation becomes easier and faster than otherwise.

A few days ago Mohan also had asked the same question. I had asked him to select any four brands of his choice and then come to me – for a making the final choice.

After 6 days Mohan came. He said “I have taken test drive and selected the following Brands – now you please tell me which BRAND I should opt for.”

Mohan had selected the following 5 CAR BRAND options to choose from:

1. Renault
2. Maruti
3. Hyundai
4. Ford
5. Volkswagen

I said “ Mohan, open your Birth Chart and now get ready to answer my questions and be quick because I have to go for my evening walk.”

Mohan was happy because he knows that I very rarely entertain people and so he quickly said “ Yes I am ready.”

Looking at the 5 options I asked “ Mohan – Where is your RAHU?”

Mohan said “ 12th house”

I said “ Cross out the Renualt Brand”

Mohan made a cross on Renault.

My next question was “ Mohan – Where is your KETU?”

Mohan said “ 6th house”

I said “ Cross out Maruti Brand.”

Mohan made a cross on Maruti.

My next question – “Mohan – Where is your Saturn?”

Mohan said “8th house”

I said “ Drop the Hyundai Brand – it adds no luck to your fate.”

Mohan made a cross on Hyundai.

I asked “ Mohan – Where is your Venus?”

This time Mohan smiled. He said “ My Venus is in the 5th house in Pieces Zodiac.”

I said “ Underline the FORD brand.”

My last question was “ Mohan – Where is your MARS?”

Mohan said “Mars is in the 3rd house – in Capricorn Zodiac.”

I said “ Underline the Volkswagen Brand.”

Looking at me – Mohan said “ You have helped me to select the best TWO CAR BRANDS that are suitable for me from Astrological perspective – but now from these TWO – which one to select – which is going to be the best of these two?”

I said “ The answer is simple.”

Mohan asked “ What is it?”

I said “ Volkswagen.”

“How did you arrive at this” – Mohan asked

I said “ Mohan – your Ascendant is Scorpio and your Ascendant lord is Mars and your Mars is Exalted in Capricorn – placed in the 3rd house – so instead of Venus – Mars is more active and the BRAND letter Volkswagen represents MARS – so now call the dealer and book your brand new Volkswagen and now let me go – you have already taken a lot of my time.”

Once you get the RIGHT CHOICE of BRAND – the model can be anything that suits your budget and taste. What is important is selecting the Right Brand that brings the RIGHT DIRECTION and PROGRESS in your life.

People are shallow – so they generally don’t go so deep in understanding what BRAND suits them astrologically – but BRANDS matter – and they really do!

But who wants to listen? People buy anything under the sky and they never know what is the cause of their miseries.

BRANDS. COLORS – matter. Now your next question is about COLOR – which color you should select for your CAR.

Let me tell you and through your question – to all my followers and readers that the COLOR WHITE represents VENUS.

And VENUS represents VEHICLE (Car/Bike).

And so the SAFE COLOR for any CAR is WHITE. If you don’t know anything about ASTROLOGY and you have to choose a color for your CAR – then WHITE is the most SAFEST color to CHOOSE.

But if you are keen to get a COLOR as per ASTROLOGY – then you have to dive deep into VENUS. Meaning – you have to see in WHICH NAKSHATRA – your natal VENUS is placed.

Yesterday a young man asked “ Can I buy a Grey color Car?”

GREY is the color of the RAHU. And his RAHU was placed in the 8th house.

He showed me his Birth Chart. I observed his Venus – it was placed in Mrig Nakshatra. I said “ Settle for any color that comes closer to Red or Maroon shades.”

You have to observe the NAKSHATRA LORD of VENUS. The color shade that the NAKSHATRA LORD represents – should be your FIRST CHOICE of COLOR.

So the common choice or the safest choice is always WHITE COLOR – and you all see so many WHITE COLOR CARS – because VENUS represents WHITE!

And if you want a peculiar shade than go deep into the VENUS NAKSHATRA and according to the Lord of the Venus Nakshatra make the color choice for your brand new car.

More to come on this – but for today, enough.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Sattvic means pure. In our Vedic culture – we have three types of people – Sattvic, Rajasic, Tamasic.

Sattvic means pure and devoted, God loving person who takes much joy in reciting God’s name, who chants daily and spends time in deep meditation. One who never fights or reacts to negative people. He simply blocks negativity and focuses on spreading positivity. Such a man’s lifestyle is very simple and generally he maintains a vegetarian diet. Of all the planets in our galaxy – Moon, Jupiter belong to the Sattvic category.

Rajasic means royal – such a person loves to live a luxuries life. He is BHOGI – pleasure seeking person. He loves to eat all kind of food – veg, non-veg. He is man of BIG Heart – he loves to help people, he is also good when it comes to doing charity. He protects his people and generally is a RANGEELA meaning a colorful person who have faith in God but also wants to enjoy the many pleasures of human life. Of all the planets in our galaxy – Sun, Venus, Mercury belong to the Rajasic category.

Tamasic means doing actions without thinking, without taking a balanced perspective. And so Tamasic nature people are like that slogan of Nike – “Just Do It” – but in just doing it – you may either win or fail. So one good quality of Tamasic nature is that they like to take risks – they are risk-takers because they don’t care much and they don’t think much. That is why Ketu and Mars are addressed as Tamasic though this nature if put to good use can lead to great achievements. However there is a very extreme dark side of Tamasic nature which is to offend people, abuse others – this dark side of Tamasic nature is represented by Rahu. So ideally the Ketu and Mars qualities of Tamasic nature is good for spiritual and material progress because the person will simply jump into the unknown – he has the courage to take risk. However the other side of Tamasic is being abusive, and being possessive comes under the master thief Rahu. Similary when you are working a JUDGE – you have to make some hard decisions – which may sound cruel to either of the party whose person is going to be hanged. This quality of making hard decisions comes under Saturn and so Saturn also need to be Tamasic else no judge can make fair decisions no matter how hard those decisions be. So Tamasic is a very complex Guna whose output or impact is totally based on the situation or environment of the native.

When it comes to numerology or numbers – just the way we all fall in Sattvic, Rajasic or Tamasic category – similarly the numbers also fall in one of these three categories. So now I will discuss on the numbers that fall in one of these 3 categories:

• Number – 1, 5, 6 belong to Rajasic Category
• Number – 2, 3 belong to Sattvic Category
• Number – 4, 7, 8, 9 belong to Tamasic Category

Always remember – between ONE and NINE – the whole story of human life falls. All of these NINE numbers starting from ONE to NINE are neither good nor bad. Each number comes with its own set of vibrations and spiritual significance. Depending on your level of awareness and your receptive power – you either ‘connect’ or ‘disconnect’ with a certain number. For example – lets say – you are a murderer and you have been arrested for many sinful acts – this imply that there is much negativity within you and so then positive – Satvik numbers will not go well with you – then you will ‘connect’ only with a number that is utterly Tamasic in nature such as the number 4 – ruled by Rahu. However now lets take another example of a Military officer – lets say – you are a Military officer and all your life you have been fighting many battles for your nation and ofcourse in battles you don’t sit and talk over a cup of coffee – in battles and war you simply have to kill – but this killing is not for any selfish interest – and so then even though killing is Tamasic still in such scenario since you doing it for the nation and not for yourself – the number 7, 9 goes well with you. 7 is Ketu – when you shoot on battlefields you don’t think much – you have to keep your head and logic aside – you just have to go on shooting – that’s Ketu and number 9 is the number of Mars – courage comes through Mars and you cannot become a Military Officer if you don’t have the courage to fight for your nation. So as mentioned earlier TAMASIC is a very complex GUNA that is totally based on situation and the environment you operate.

In this podcast – I am going to share the most powerful combinations of numbers that are highly Sattvic by nature and thereby attracts much happiness, positivity and abundance in life. So lets start:

The very first combination of Sattvic number is number 21. It is one of my favorite number and in Hindu faith – this number is closely associated with Lord Dattareya. GuruDev Dutt- and so you can select this number when it comes to buying a new mobile number, house number or car number.

The second combination of Sattvic number is number 786. This is also one of my favorite number and in Islam faith – this number is closely associated with Prophet Muhammed. Interestingly the total of this number comes down to number 21. Last year when I bought my new car – I got this number registered. It is one of the most sort after number and many a times you may not get this number though you may be ready to pay a good price for it. Long back some ten years ago – I used to have this combination in my mobile number also – since its a very auspicious number – it is good to have this combination in your mobile number, house number or car number. It is not easy to get this number because companies charge a good amount of money if you want this world famous auspicious number – 786. If you have this combination in your mobile number, car number or house number – let me know. Once I met a great spiritual master and he showed me a ten rupees Indian currency note – I asked “What’s in it?” – the great spiritual master smiled and showed me the currency note series number and said “Look – here in the note series number – you will see the auspicious number 786.” I asked “What so special about this number? The great spiritual master again smiled and said ”It brings abundance and prosperity in life.” I asked “So you have kept this for yourself?” The master laughed – a loud belly laugh and said “Tamhankar” – that is how he used to fondly call me – by my last name. He said “Tamhankar – I am a fakir – but whenever I get this kind of special currency notes – I keep it so that I can give it to those deserving men who are going through difficult financial situations.” I touched the feet of that great spiritual master – and as always he gave a pat on my back and said “Tamhankar – now you leave. I want to have some rest.” I left but was touched by the words of that great spiritual master.

The third and last Sattvic number is the single digit number 3. Interestingly the number three is very much connected with all religious faiths. Christians also see three as symbolic of the Trinity, the triune nature of God: as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In Hindu faith – the 3 Devtas – Brahma Vishnu Mahesh comprises the whole of our universe and its existence. As mentioned earlier number 3 is also associated with Lord Dattareya – that is why Lord Dattareya is always seen with three faces – one face represents Bramha, the other – Vishnu and the third face – Mahesh. That is why in the whole universe – Lord Dattreya is revered as the most powerful deity – and also the most compassionate of all deities. Gurudev Dutta 🙏🙏🙏.

 

Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi – the master I adore the most shares great insights on Lord Dattareya. Bhagavan Ramana Maharshi often used to refer the great spiritual scripture written in praise of Lord Dattareya – and name of this great scripture is Avdhuta Gita. Avdhuta Gita means “Song of the free soul.” Avdhuta Gita is based on the principles of dualism (dvait) and non-dualism (advait). This great miraculous scripture is at the very core of Natha Yogi tradition of Hindu faith. Avadhuta means “liberated soul”, while Gita means song. The text of this great scripture describes the nature and the state of a person who is spiritually free and liberated.

Someday I will share more on Avdhuta Gita and may also recite the whole Avdhuta Gita by explaining it in English so that my close followers can benefit and thereby excel in their spiritual progress.

Enough for now – in my next podcast I will talk on Rajasic Numbers. Aways remember when it comes to numbers – never label them or perceive them as a property of any specific religion. You just have to focus on choosing the Pure – the Sattvic – and that’s all.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

Curly hair is a direct message from the heavens that you are indeed a blessed woman, a blessed man. A woman or man having natural curly hair is blessed abundantly by Goddess Venus. It is a perfect sign that Venus is powerful in the chart and such a Venus attracts the opposite sex and makes you a popular figure amongst the opposite sex. If you are a woman having natural curly hair than you gain much attraction and popularity in the company of men and if you are a man having natural curly hair than you too are chased by woman. Natural Curly hair by default brings a certain beauty to your face and your persona. No matter whether you are black, white or brown – just the presence of natural curly hair makes you a center of attraction. And so it is a a given fact that the presence of natural curly hair is a perfect sign of a strong Venus placement that makes you very attractive and appealing to the opposite sex as well as to the society in general.

Curly hair signify that Venus is associated with Mars in the birth chart through direct conjunction, trine, square aspect or Venus may be placed in the sign of Mars or Nakshatra of Mars but some connection of Venus with Mars is seen.

Another placement that signify Curly hair is Venus placed in Libra, Taurus and Mars placed in the 1st ,4th, 7th or 10th house – basically a strong Venus and strong Mars indicates the presence of Curly hair in the birth chart.

In some cases – Venus association with Rahu also indicates natural curly hair – though Venus need to be in its own sign or exalted in Pisces.

Curly hair is a very auspicious sign since it naturally attracts immense wealth and pleasures of life. Depending on the overall depth and quality of the birth chart – the native will attract wealth and pleasures but it is indeed a promise from Venus that you will receive wealth and pleasures in life.

Whenever you see a woman having natural curly hair – immediately your attention is drawn towards that woman. Similarly whenever you see a man having curly hair – your attention is drawn towards him. So you see – Curly hair is a great attention drawing medium – and very few are blessed with natural curly hair!

 

However every coin has two sides – so along with all the goodness and positive auspicious indications of curly hair – the negative side also need to be discussed.

Curly hair is an indication that there is going to be problem in relationships, marriage and the woman will have to go through a lot of pain – heartbreak. Breakups, divorce is a very strong indication of Curly hair – somehow love happens, you find a good looking partner but then comes the many issues in relationships that either you accept and learn to live through it or you breakup or file a divorce. Depending on the placement of Jupiter and 7th house lord and Mars – the overall indications can be predicted but curly hairs have absolutely no problem in finding a lover or a marriage partner – but the real pain begins once the relationship is formed.

Emotional upheavals, breakup, tragic love stories and tragedies are some of the side effects of this beautiful curly hair however as I mentioned earlier – it all depends on the placement of Jupiter, Mars and 7th house lord in the birth chart. If these placements are supportive then the native may still have issues in relationships but will not have to deal with a serious breakup or divorce.

Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez, Mariah Carey, Taylor Swift, Shakira, Julia Roberts are some of the fine examples of female actresses having curly hair.

Will Smith, Tom Hanks, Will Ferrell are some of the fine examples of male actors having curly hair. Yesterday I was watching this movie “Pursuit of Happyness” staring Will Smith and what a wonderful movie it is. Similarly you all should watch “The Terminal” staring Tom Hanks – it is a story of a man trapped on an airport and how he finds ways to survive – a very beautiful movie directed by Steven Spielberg. Incidently Steven Spielberg also has curly hair. Curly hair indicates vivid imagination and brings a certain artistic flair to the native.

I have found men and women with natural curly hair having some talent in art works. Painting, acting, singing, writing, directing movies or plays – technology evangelists bringing some innovative products or services. Mark Zuckerberg also has curly hair – and he introduced Facebook to the world.

So curly hair is a perfect sign of immense success in material world – no matter in what condition you are born – if you are born on the streets – someday you will rise and build a palace for yourself – that is the power of curly hair.

Nowadays woman who don’t have curly hair – they go to parlors to make their hair curly – but that’s fake. The lucky charm of natural born curly hair is what I am emphasizing in this podcast.

From spiritual perspective – the presence of natural curly hair is sign that the native is blessed by Goddess Lakshmi. In the ancient Rome – there were Temples of Goddess Venus – Venus is Lakshmi – and so a woman or man having natural curly hair is a blessed person and whosoever associates with him or her – is also blessed with prosperity because these native are walking banks – even if they become bankrupt still they will bounce back and earn abundance of wealth. So never undestimate the power of natural curly hair. The great legendary Indian batsman Sachin Tendulkar also has curly hair.

Enough for now – and wishing all my Indian fellows a very happy independence day. We all are experiencing a New India – a developing India – a rich India and may our great nation continue to prosper and grow with time. Long Live India. God bless India. Jai Hind. Vande Mataram.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

How to find your lucky color?

Finding your lucky color is important for your overall growth in material world. But the basic question is – how do you perceive a certain color shade?

Before we dive in, if you’re interested in uncovering the power of numerology in your life, consult the best numerologist in India for expert guidance on name numerology and its impact on your destiny.

Mohan said ” Through our eyes”

I said “Mohan you are wrong. When you see – you see through your mind.”

It is the mind that discriminates – not the eyes. It is the mind that says “He is WHITE and He BLACK” – the eyes only identifies the color shade but the underlying meaning is applied by the mind.

So you see – it is the MIND that matters when it comes to selecting your lucky color.

In Astrology – MOON signify MIND – and so the MOON SIGN becomes extremly significant in finding your lucky color.

However along with the Moon – the Nakshatra of the Moon also plays a vital role in finding your lucky color.

So in life – you may have two lucky colors – one based on your moon sign and the other based on your Moon Nakshatra.

So now I will quickly share your LUCKY COLORS based on your MOON SIGN and MOON NAKSHATRA:

• PURVABHADRAPADA – YELLOW OR GOLDEN

PISCES

So when you get an opportunity to select your favorite color shades – you can always refer to this podcast. You can always select all kind of shades of your lucky color – for example if you are born in SHRAVAN NAKSHATRA – then you can select any shade of SILVER or if you are born in ANURADHA Nakshatra then you can select any shades of dark blue.

Once you self-realize your lucky color – you can use it while painting your house. Now for example if your lucky color is Red – then you can choose any shade of red – and there are so many to choose from! Similarly you can wear clothes based on your lucky color. Similarly you can also use the mobile covers based on your lucky color. Or for matter you can paint your car based on your lucky color. So now that you have got to know the way to find your lucky color – you can get started with new ideas of how to put to use your lucky color – while I will now take some rest.

Black dog or white/brown cat — any of the two is best to keep at home according to Astrology.

If you are seeking wealth or struggling with your finances or you are having financial problems then keeping a beautiful white cat and loving her dearly, taking care of her will immensely help in resolving all your financial problems. But remember — the love, the caring has to be REAL — straight from your ❤️ heart.

If you are seeking protection, status, popularity and good health then you can keep a nice BLACK 🐶 dog. The more you love and nurture a dog the more you will continue to grow in your career / business. I would say DOG covers all the aspects of human life and not just the financial problems. However Cat is extremely helpful if your major problem is with earning money/finance. In case you don’t like Cat (female) then you can keep a female Dog in place of a Cat if your major problem is with your finance/money.

It is a deep subject. The subject of pets in Astrology but I appreciate your question.

In simple words if you ask me then I would say that the Cats represent the qualities of a Brahmin ( priestly). While a Dog represent the qualities of a Kshatriya ( Warrior). A Dog therefore is Martian (signify Mars in Astrology) while a Cat is Venusian ( signify Venus in Astrology).

Venus also is the planet of GODDESS LAKSHMI. In fact the Romans would worship Venus as Goddess Venus! Before Christianity — the whole Europe was worshipping idols of God and Goddesses. They had huge temples of God and Goddesses just the way as Hindu we have in our country.

In fact just for the larger interest of my followers and readers — I want to mention that Brahmins are represented by Venus and not Jupiter. Jupiter is a very high level planet that represents someone as beautiful as Buddha, Mahavira, Kabir or Guru Nanak. Basically Jupiter represents the enlightened masters or the one who are walking on the path of Enlightenment.

Reminds me of a story — it happened when Buddha was yet to become a full moon — meaning he yet was to attain Enlightenment. He was walking with his disciples and the forest was very dense. And suddenly a mosquito came near his ear and Buddha’s hand moved near his ears to drive away the mosquito. The mosquito went away but after a while Buddha again stopped and moved his hand near his ear…. the disciples were surprised…Ananda said “ Master there is no mosquito but still you moved your hand. Why? Please explain us, we are novice…”

Buddha smiled and said “ The last time I moved my hand — but it was mechanical. There was absolutely NO awareness in my action. It was mechanical, robotic. But now when I moved my hand — it was with absolute AWARENESS. The mosquito may not be there but I wanted to ensure that there is awareness to my action…”

It was a message. A very significant message to each one of us — that every Action should arise through a certain level of Awareness.

Keeping a pet is anyhow a good Karma BUT looking after them with Awareness is also very important to avoid hurting them.

Keeping a female cat is good for financial problems. Does bring good money to your family.

Keeping a female dog as an alternative to female cat is also a good remedy for resolving financial problems.

Keeping a Male Dog is excellent from all aspects of human life — finance, health and career.

So now choice is yours. As far as I am concerned, I LOVE dogs. I never have had the pleasure of keeping a dog since I am a Fakir — a moving nomad. But that reminds me of a great spiritual master — I had met Him in his Ashram and he used to share many stories of his life with me. We had become friends. And so one day he said — I had a black dog and I am a Fakir, a nomad but I always ensured that this dog gets the best food possible. My disciples would feed him. Although we all are vegetarian but out of love — they would feed him all kind of non-veg food outside the Ashram so that he remains happy. After all God comes to a happy soul and a dog is no exception.”

And then he laughed out loudly — a loud belly laugh. He was a man of many miracles. One day he said “ This dog was once a great warrior in his past life. He was very close to the King.”

That is so true. Dogs or Cats — they always are found to be a subject of reincarnation wherein their past life they were Humans!

And so my fellows — love Dog and love Cats, because at some point of time they were also human beings, maybe great human beings but “Karma” has not skipped anybody — some sins of the past have compelled then to arive in the form of dog or cat!

Love them. Bhagwan Ramana Maharshi loved all animals in his Ashram in Arunachal. In the beginning whatever food was left — was offered to dogs and cats. Then one day a disciple said to the Bhagavan “ We give leftover food to the dogs and cats, I feel they may not like this.”

Bhagwan smiled and said “ If you are able to feel this then why you give leftover food to them?”

From that day — the disciples started cooking specially for all the dogs and cats and other animals in the Ashram. No more the animals had to eat the left over food, they were now able to truly relish on the food specially made for them — with 💕 love.

The sutra of life is simple — love animals, feed animals with love and GOD will continue to feed you, because just the way you take care of your pet — similarly GOD takes care of HIS children and WE ALL ARE HIS CHILDREN.

“Who are we? We are children of God. Our potential is unlimited. Our inheritance is sacred.”
-Russell M. Nelson

If you are planning to adopt a cat or dog, then do it based on the Nakshatra.

Cat — Adopt on a day when the Nakshatra is of Bharani, Purvashadha or Purvaphalguni.

Dog — Adopt on a day when the Nakshatra is of Mrig, Dhanishta or Chitra.

Love to all my readers and I truly appreciate all my readers and followers who have a pet dog or pet cat because I know how much it takes to upbring these beautiful souls who are so lovable and innocent. Their innocence is what drives God toward them — that is why NEVER hurt any animal because GOD is watching very closely…..HE loves and bless those who love and protect animals.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.🙏

Firstly – there is no such thing as LAW of attraction.

But there is ATTRACTION! There is NO Law – Absolutely NO Law – but yes – there is ATTRACTION. And this ATTRACTION is based on the QUALITIES (GUNA) that you have developed within you. By and by these qualities leads to certain KARMA and then follows the cycle of KARMIC CONNECTIONS – and this is deep – this is significant and I appreciate your question.

LAW of ATTRACTION is a man-made philosophy – and philosophies have nothing to do with the TRUTH.

Philosopher is like a BLIND MAN. And a BLIND MAN can be bold enough to claim how the LIGHT is – though HE has NEVER EVER experienced the LIGHT the DIVINE in true sense.

A Spiritualist has. He has experienced and so whatever he shares is coming through his own experiences and NOT Belief – NOT assumptions – NOT calculations.

Therefore I always say that – EITHER you are a PHILOSOPHER or you are a SPIRITUALIST – you cannot be both – either you are BLIND or either you have the ‘EYES’ to see. Either you are on the side of LOGIC and LOGIC and LOGIC and abundance of INTELLECTUALISM – OR – you are on the side of LOVE and LOVE and LOVE and abundance of INTELLIGENCE.

Philosophy has nothing but intellectualism – it is all HEAD – all calculations – NOTHING REAL. Calculations and LOGIC can take you from A to Z – but beyond that it cannot. Then you start suffocating – and that is what is happening – all these intellectuals and philosophers – continue to go round and round and round – just to realize at the end – that they have gone nowhere.

A philosopher is an intellect.
A spiritualist is a man of intelligence.

The MIND gives birth to Intellect. In fact the MIND loves intellect. MIND is intellectual which is indeed a very poor substitute for Intelligence.

Such a MIND then comes up with such FANCY ideas of LAW OF ATTRACTION.

Firstly – who makes the LAW? And this is deep. Because if you are saying or the whole human world is using the word LAW – than there has to be someone out there who governs the LAW – but in REALITY – there is NOBODY out there who is sitting or who is ‘appointed’ to govern the LAW.

IT ALL HAPPENS ON ITS OWN. THERE IS NO LAW. THERE IS NO JUDGE. THERE IS NOBODY – NO PERSON – IT SIMPLY HAPPENS ON ITS OWN. AND IT HAPPENS AT ITS OWN PACE – IT HAPPENS THROUGH ITS OWN PROCESS – and therefore people get lost when they THINK POSITIVE and yet positive is not what they get in return! BECAUSE THERE IS NO SUCH LAW. The GOOD that you do – may not be returned to you back – and one who indeed is truly focused on DOING GOOD – is LEAST INTERESTED to EXPECT anything in return – he is simply happy to help!

So this theory of THINK POSITIVE so that YOU GET POSITIVE – is purely the PHILOSOPHY OF THE MIND and the MIND IS CUNNING the MIND knows how to manipulate words and its meanings to its own SELF-INTEREST.

The Law of Attraction is the LOGIC of the MIND that positive or negative thoughts bring positive or negative experiences into a person’s life.

And LOGIC has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the TRUTH.

There was one young man who lived in the US. And he met an old lady. The old lady belonged to a POSITIVIST GROUP that was very prominent fifty years ago in the US – they called themselves the Christian Scientists. They believe there is NO Negative in this world. Everything is divine. There is nothing wrong; everything is right. They forgot completely that IF there is nothing wrong, how are you going to define right? If there is nothing negative, how are you going to define positive? If there is no darkness, how are you going to define light? But certain people found it to be a very interesting philosophy.

The old woman asked the young man, “ I have not seen your father coming to our weekly meetings.”

The young man said “ He is very sick.”

The old woman said “ All nonsense! He has forgotten our philosophy? Sickness is your imagination. Just go home and tell him “Sickness is your imagination.” There is no sickness, no death, nothing wrong in the world. It is God who created the world. How can there be wrong?

The young man said “ I will convey your message.”

Three weeks passed and the old man did not turn up. Again the woman encountered the young man and asked him, “Did you convey my message?”

He said “ I did.”

The old woman said, “ But he has not turned up to the meeting.”

The young man said, “ I am sorry to tell you that NOW he imagines he is dead!”

TRUTH cannot be conveyed to such a woman – such kind of people – who simply cannot ACCEPT – cannot FACE the TRUTH – that DEATH exists – that the old man has died. These kind of people who keep on saying “Be Positive” are in true sense denying to SEE THROUGH the REAL – that exists in and around us and that is the greatest irony of this human world.

WHAT is – is. If a man is doing wrong – you cannot go on saying to yourself – BE POSITIVE – you have to FACE THE TRUTH and DEAL WITH IT.

Always REMEMBER – and I say it all my followers – readers and fellow travelers – that there is ATTRACTION – but there is no LAW as such. Because LAW means CONDITIONS – LAW means -a predefined theory – a concept – LAW means REGULATIONS – LAW means all that which means everything BUT FREEDOM.

And the whole UNIVERSE thrives on FREEDOM – unless there is FREEDOM – there cannot be anything possible under this SUN. Anything that is beautiful – anything that is lovable anything that is meaningful.

So there is absolutely no LAW – because the moment you say it is a LAW – you are giving a GUARANTEE – and LIFE HAS NO GUARANTEE.

And so I tell you all – that DO GOOD – but whenever you DO GOOD – do NOT expect GOOD in return – this very idea of EXPECTATION brings a certain SELFISHNESS to your being and then the essence of all that you DO GOOD – is lost – is simply lost.

THE LAW OF ATTRACTION is for those MIND and those LOGICAL beings and those INTELLECTUAL beings who are DOING GOOD with an EXPECTATION of GETTING GOOD BACK – these are DEALS and DEALS are made in the MARKET – not in the REAL WORLD – not in GOD’s KINGDOM. DEALS are of the MIND – and so men and women who have been following their MIND have come up with these kind of FANCY TERMS – called LAW of ATTRACTION.

Buddha will not understand what this LAW of Attraction – because HE is so innocent – he is so SELFLESS that he JUST IS NOT BOTHERED of WHAT COMES OUT OF HIS POSITIVE ACTIONS – he just DOES GOOD and moves on – and so I love BUDDHA – the meditating beings LOVE BUDDHA – every MAN and every WOMAN who is following the HEART and NOT the MIND – loves BUDDHA – because BUDDHA does GOOD – out of LOVE and NOT out of LOGIC.

JESUS heals a blind man – gives him EYES – a NEW SIGHT – I am certain HE must not have thought of this LAW OF ATTRACTION when he would have healed a passing BLIND MAN…..

Jesus is walking on the road and suddenly a blind man comes to know that Jesus is walking towards him – somebody says ‘Jesus is coming….” and he listens to those words and he waits and as Jesus comes closer – he drops himself on Jesus’s feet and he starts crying and he says “ JESUS……Jesus……I pray to you….please please help me get my eyes back……”

And Jesus is such a beautiful person – such a compassionate master – that HE gets down on his knees – touched the blind man’s eyes and the blind man starts seeing…..at first a very blurred vision……he could see a young face – with some beard….with glowing eyes…..eyes that showered so much of love…..and the first words that he says is that “ I SEE YOU JESUS ——i see you and he falls at the master’s feet – but Jesus raised him up and gave him a hug – and the man could not stop crying – he was touched he was blessed he was no more the same – everything around him was the same but he was no more the same…..

The blind man who is now no more a blind man – gets up and gives a HUG to Jesus and Jesus smiles – the Master is always happy to see the sick HEAL.

The Master – the very coming of the Master is to HEAL the SICK- yes, the master indeed is for the SICK.

Jesus heals the blind man – gives him eyes to see, gives him a hug and then moves on – as if nothing special has happened – and this is how the REAL MASTER is – they never take the credit to themselves – they give it all to the ALMIGHTY GOD – they simply state that

“GOD is the creator and I am HIS humble SERVANT.”

And GOD’s servant has NO EXPECTATION. Has NO AGENDA. He is therefore FREE – FREE to live his life in his own bliss – his own peace.

The WEST calls it GOD CONSCIOUSNESS, INDIA we call it Krishna CONSCIOUSNESS – the FAR EAST call it BUDDHA CONSCIOUSNESS – names change – but what remains is CONSCIOUSNESS – you may give it any name – what needs to be REMEMBERED is that – GOD IS THE ULTIMATE FRAGRANCE OF YOUR CONSCIOUSNESS!

And to SERVE GOD – selflessly is the most beautiful blossoming that can happen to you – to all those who are reading this answer.

But who wants to listen? Even this answer maybe collapsed – but as long as it remain it can benefit a few of my genuine followers and readers.

People are running and running to advance themselves spiritually – while the real gem of a person is LEAST interested in any advancement – HE or SHE is simply devoted to SERVE the LORD by serving those in NEED.

When you HELP – without any AGENDA – without any self interest – without any selfish motive – you are creating a much better ground for meditation to blossom – to flower! So you see – first comes your KARMA – do GOOD without thinking about any such logical fancies such as LAW OF ATTRACTION and then you will TRULY ARRIVE – you will find way back HOME.

Whenever you do anything GOOD OUT OF HEART – spontaneously – it is called the ACT OF RANDOM KINDNESS (ARK). It comes spontaneously – there is absolutely NO SPACE to even think about such intellectual fancies – when you do good – you do it out of love and NOT out of expectation and THEN it is the REAL GOOD KARMA and this KARMA then follows you – yes it is the KARMA that follows you.

Just the way a ‘calf’ finds his or her mother – even though she is standing with thousands of other cows – similarly your ‘KARMA’ finds you among thousands of people – you just CANNOT escape your KARMA! No matter where you go – your KARMA follows you – What you have done – follows you – the astrologers call it KETU – the Saints call it KARMA. Whatever you have DONE – is your KETU.

Mohan asked “ Then who is RAHU – what is Rahu?”

I smiled and said “For that you have to read my book on Rahu. But since that will take some time for you – let me tell you what is RAHU….”

Rahu is your DESIRE – which compels you to take BIRTH – again and again and again until you SELF REALIZE the FUTILITY of the base desires and start RAISING the quality of your DESIRES.

Attractions to a certain woman, a certain man similarly takes place based on the PAST KARMIC CONNECTIONS or DUES.

AND ASTROLOGY SIMPLY SIGNIFY THESE KARMIC ATTRACTIONS – so the question of co-existing does not arise – they are NOT TWO ENTITIES – they are NOT SEPARATE ENTITIES – they are the TWO SIDES of the SAME COIN – called LIFE!

Once it happened, a great Emperor was found to have a strange ailment. A mole started appearing on his right hand – and before he could know, the mole had grown bigger and it had now started to pain. And the Emperor could not sleep, could not eat, could not enjoy any pleasures of the Palace. Life became difficult – many medical experts were called – but nothing worked. Now the Emperor went into deep depression – all the pleasures of the world were at his feet – beautiful maids, lovely queen, absolute power, millions and millions of treasury – thousand acres of land – EVERYTHING was there – but the Emperor was not happy – he was spending sleepless nights….and the ministers and the people were worried – they all wondered who would heal the Emperor – they all kept him in their prayers….they believed that someday God would send somebody soon….

And that day came. In that kingdom came a very old man – and he looked so gracious. His peace, His bliss, His glow – there was something about this old man – a certain fragrance lingered around him and he used to sit under a huge banyan tree – that tree became his home. The nearby flowing river became his well. And the alms that he used to get on his daily round around the capital – became his meal. On the very first day when he had arrived in the capital – a little girl had welcomed him by hugging him tightly – somehow she got attracted to this old man and the old man had smiled – and his smile was so sweet so blissful that the people of the town had started to notice him. He moved slowly – walked in his own bliss – he would never ask for food, he just would carry a wooden bowl with him. But his grace was so much – his glow – his love – as if the whole eternity was passing through those narrow lanes of the capital that people could not ignore him – some of them would step ahead and offer some fruits to him – the old man then would just look into the eyes of the man who is offering the fruits – and something would happen in the man’s heart – he would feel good – he would feel as if hundreds and hundreds of springs are showering LOVE within his whole being – he would start feeling joyous – without having any thoughts – his hand would come together and he would prostrate before the old man. And the old man would smile – a certain grace would shower through his eyes – and the man would feel blessed. And it was not just this man who felt the bliss within – but almost every generous man and woman who had met the old man – whoever would meet the old man – just a glance of His and the miracle would start happening! Slowly the problems would fade away, slowly the diseases would heal, slowly the pain would start reliving, – Just one glance – just through his gracious glance upon you – all your problems and miseries would start evaporating – leading you to a joyous life!

Slowly the news of his miracles started reaching the Emperor’s courtiers. And the courtiers informed the Emperor….the Emperor was in utter misery – unable to walk, unable to talk….the Emperor just continued to listen to the many miracles of the old man. Somebody said – a blind man was healed – he got the most beautiful eyes the world had ever known and now he remains no more in his home – he started following the old man. A woman who had been longing for a child -was blessed with a beautiful baby – jobless men started earning, sick men are feeling better – they are recovering…….

Listening to the courtiers and the many miracles of the old man that they shared – the Emperor’s eyes became wet…..he asked everybody to leave. When they all left him alone – the Emperor folded his hands – he could not speak, he could not move – he could not move his legs – but his heart was moved – he thanked the old man in his prayers – he thanked God for sending the old man to his capital. That night – the Emperor had a dream and in that dream the same old man had come – and he was saying “Idiot – how long are you going to make me wait in this capital of yours – get yourself healed and let me leave.”

The Emperor got up – he was taken aback – he could not wait anymore – but it was still dark outside – the sun was still to rise – he waited eagerly – every minute was become difficult to bear – the moment it was morning – he signaled the courtiers to take him to the old man.

When the Emperor was brought before the old man – the old man just looked at the Emperor – and the Emperor was moved with just the glow of His eyes. He started crying – and he stood up……and he started walking……and the mole disappeared and the Emperor rushed in the arms of the old man – and the melting – the melting happened – and the whole town – the whole fleet of the Royal members and courtiers stood with folded hands – with tears flowing from everybody’s eyes…it was the most touching movement of their life – a moment that neither they nor their forefathers had ever seen before!

The old man then looked into the Emperor’s eyes and said “ Finally you have met me again in this life – that was your wish last life. It is now fulfilled.”

The Emperor could not understand, he said “ Master please help me understand…what you mean.”

The old man said “ Last life you were a washer-man. You used to be my close disciple. And you would come to my hermitage, collect my clothes and wash them. You loved me and I loved you – and there were many many disciple in the hermitage – but you were so much fond of me that you would serve me all the day. Then one day – while cleaning my clothes on the riverside – you were distracted by the Royal Fleet of the King – the Royal Fleet of the King was passing by and a thought came to your mind “How great it is to live a life of a KING!” And this thought went so deep into your being – that I noticed it and deep within I realized that this desire of becoming a KING has gone so deep into your subconscious mind that unless you become a KING – you would not move ahead towards the final liberation. And so one evening I revealed to you that you next birth will be of a KING – just out of compassion and love I blessed you with a birth of a King and look now – you have become not just a King but an Emperor. But when I had revealed to you – your next birth – you had started crying….just the way when a child comes to know he is going to lose his mother…..you had started crying….and you cried that whole night – you said “ “Even though I become a King next life – I want to meet you again – I cannot imagine any life without your omnipresence.”

And so then I had said that “You will come to me again – a mole would come on your body and to heal you will come back to me and that is how you will meet me again.”

The Emperor now started crying…..with the touch of the master he was able to recollect all of his past life moments – he was a Dhobi (washer-man) last life – he was a devotee of this divine old man who is now standing before him – yes he could recollect everything – and now he could not control himself – he fell on the feet of the old man…..and said “ Now please don’t let me go – I don’t want any palaces and any royal pleasures – I had it all , my desire has been fulfilled – now give me the way ahead…..”

The old man raised him up and said “ This is how the cycle of life and birth continues – this is how the ‘attractions’ are triggered – each and every action has its threads connected to your PAST – and that PAST need not be the immediate PAST LIFE – it can be connected to many other PAST lives that you have been through. Now get up and go back to the Palace. And always remember – you need NOT renounce anything – because that will again lead to EGO – the EGO that – ‘I have renounced everything’! So just be where you are and keep me in your Heart – keep GOD in your HEART and let the journey WITH HIM begin – because always remember – the journey is NOT towards GOD – the journey is WITH GOD. Now go back and always remember – I Am With You.”

The Emperor with a very heavy heart had to return back to his Palace. But the moment he returned – his life was no more the same – a great change had been initiated within his being – and he was all set to begin his spiritual journey with deep faith, patience and love in his heart.

And this is what I have been telling you all – to each one of you who has been following me all these days and months – that YOU NEED NOT GO ANYWHERE – there is absolutely no need to GO to Himalayas – or to any place – just BE WHERE YOU ARE – just EXECUTE your worldly responsibilities with sincerity and continue to spend quality time with yourself – in deep meditation, every morning, every evening, every night – as much as you can.

Always remember – the beauty is when you learn to BALANCE your material life with your spiritual life – when you realize the fact – that ESCAPING is NOT the solution – FACING and LIVING THROUGH the many difficulties of life is the solution and while you do so – you remain engrossed within – you remain meditative – you remain focused within.

Astrology is just a ‘Telescope’ – through which you see the various placements of stars and planets (KARMA QUALITY) – and it is these KARMIC QUALITIES that brings forth the ATTRACTIONS that each one of you come across.

Yesterday Govind came. Govind has been such a simple man. And he had been in touch for many years. But suddenly for last 4 years he had disappeared. Today when he came – I wasn’t able to recognize him. He had turned pale, weak, and also looked depressed. He said “ I have come after a long time.”

I said “ That’s right. What happened. You seem to have lost your glow.”

Govind said “ What to say. I got attracted towards a girl, then slowly I left you – stopped following you – and then I started following her! And I stopped my meditation, I stopped my prayers and day and night I just became so mad in her love that by and by my whole life style was changed – and then for the next 4 years I was in relationship with her and then one day she left me – and then I took to drinking and then my life became more worse and then everything started collapsing – until one day I remembered you and then I started crying – what a fool I was – then I remembered your words – then I remembered all that you had been sharing with me and then I could not control my self – I had to come back to you – NOW please guide me on how should I get back to where I had started with. “

Life is like that. The moment you stop meditating you stop your prayers – you stop living a purified conscious life – the QUALITIES within you start falling – when QUALITIES start falling – you start getting ATTRACTED towards MEN or WOMEN of low quality – base level – then these same MEN AND WOMEN engulf you and start making your life a MESS. Just the way Govind first became impure – ignorant and then fell for a woman who may have those GOOD SEXY LOOKS – but from within she was a MESS – a poor drag – a dirt. And then once he was captured by her – once he was caught in her clutches – his life started becoming a HELL!

So DO NOT blame the WOMAN or the MAN who has spoiled your life – or has ATTRACTED you and then made your life a MESS – the problem is WITH YOU – because HAD YOU BEEN LIVING A PURE CONSCIOUS LIFE – you would NOT have fallen for such a flimsy man or woman.

ATTRACTIONS happen based on WHAT YOU ARE WITHIN. Always remember ATTRACTION to a wrong WOMAN or MAN is basically YOUR OWN SHORTCOMING – it is a sign that YOUR QUALITY (GUNA) is taking a setback – your STANDARD is falling and then every thing starts falling – you jump in the bed – and then misery makes sure that one day the same bed becomes your deathbed!

Always remember – just remember that YOU are your HELL and YOU are your HEAVEN too. It all begins with you – if you want to have a GOOD FRIEND – first you should ensure that you are filled with all the GOODNESS that you expect from others. If you want to have GREAT friend – then first you should be GREAT.

If you are looking a good life partner than first you should have all the QUALITIES (GUNA) of a good life partner.

But people are shallow – they would expect others to be something that they themselves are not. Then how willl the marriage work?Then how will the relationship work? Then how will the friendship will work?

But people say something, feel something and do something else. There is absolutely NO sync in what you feel, you say and you do and hence miseries are more and happiness is less, problems are more and peace is less.

LAW OF ATTRACTION is a beautiful philosophy of the CUNNING MIND. And all that feeds the MIND SELLS like a hot cake! All that appeals the MIND – sells faster.

But I am not here to make your MIND happy – I am here to help you all realize the TRUTH – and the TRUTH is beyond MIND – the TRUTH can only be found in the state of NO MIND.

Meditation is NO MIND. TRUTH is already there – but you can experience it ONLY when you KEEP the MIND ASIDE. And in this KALI YUG – it is going to be more and more difficult because the MIND has become the MASTER – the majority is RULED by the MIND and so you see more miseries – more madness – more murders – more attacks – more clinging – more attachments and more sufferings. Because the majority has become the MIND – and so the TRUTH disturbs the majority – the TRUTH is collapsed – the TRUTH is condemned fiercely.

You have to tame the monkey MIND – you have to take control of your MIND -else this MIND will cause many miseries in your life and I say it to you all – WAKE UP before it is too late – GET BACK TO YOUR ROOTS – GET BACK TO WHERE YOU HAD STARTED – and the way to do so – is by focusing WITHIN.

So come – come you all – the MIND will continue to raise many questions – but always REMEMBER the answer comes – the REAL ANSWER – the RIGHT DIRECTION comes only from your HEART! And so Meditate – Meditate by focusing on your HEART – your HEART is beautiful – what comes between you and your HEART is the monkey mind.

Your HEART knows the way……listen to the voice of your heart and JUMP – JUMP into the unknown – JUMP into yourself – and take a deep breath and meditate. Millions and millions of buds blossom into a beautiful flower – Why can’t you blossom into a beautiful flower? You have all the means to blossom – all you need is to BELIEVE in yourself and let the spirit – the consciousness within you EXPAND….

And when the LIGHT is instilled WITHIN – all the IGNORANCE that you have been carrying along all you life burn up – leading you a blissful path – the path of LOVE, of PEACE, of SILENCE.

The greatest DEFENSE is to ATTACK – but that ATTACK should be of LOVE, of PEACE, of SILENCE. And then such an attack becomes the greatest DEFENSE you could ever have imagined in your life.

Once you start following your HEART – once you realize the significance of LOVE, of SILENCE, of JOY then you will NOT worry – then you will NOT entertain – then you will NOT think about concepts and philosophies like the LAW OF ATTRACTIONS – then you will rather start FOCUSING on the QUALITY OF ATTRACTIONS! And that is what I would LOVE to see happening WITHIN you – that you all start moving from the MIND towards your HEART – that you stop Becoming and start BEING YOURSELF – that you drop the MASK OF PERSONALITY and let your INDIVIDUALITY take on. And then you all will be beautiful – then you all will find the answers to your miseries – then everything around you will be the same but you will no more be the same – then the flowering will start happening – then the meditation will start blossoming – this is the way of its happening – only if you are willing to TURN INWARD and set on the most wonderful journey of your life – the JOURNEY WITHIN – the JOURNEY towards the SELF.

Meditate and whenever you feel LOW – whenever you feel UPSET – whenever you feel angry – REMEMBER – SAMMASTI says the Buddha – just REMEMBER your inner space and go within again and again until you find peace – just REMEMBER – the last word of BUDDHA was SAMMASTI meaning REMEMBER – Remember your inner space – And the more you would REMEMBER – the more you would start understand the FORGOTTEN LANGUAGE – the Language of Silence.

Silence is the most beautiful language but that SILENCE has to be a blissful silence. Real communication happens in Silence.

But People don’t get it – they want to TALK and I am against talking – I am against all those things that come in between YOU and YOUR inner peace. And TALKING is the most idiotic thing that goes on and on and on – and nothing ever is found – you remain a lost man. TALKING can make you RICH from the OUTSIDE. But the same TALKING is taking you away from YOURSELF – from outside you are becoming RICHER – but from inside you are becoming poorer.

And so to all my dear followers and readers and fellow travelers – I appeal – let there be more SILENCE within you – a blissful silence. Through SILENCE everything can be shared – through SILENCE everything can be realized – the larger question is – HOW MUCH ARE YOU READY to rejoice in SILENCE?

Your READINESS to REJOICE in SILENCE states your spiritual progress – the greater the SILENCE the greater is the QUALITY WITHIN and the greater the QUALITY the greater is the ATTRACTION towards the HIGHER ALTITUDES – LOVE happens – LOVE cannot be planned – LOVE cannot be managed – it is NOT Politics – LOVE simply happens and when you are progressing WITHIN – when you are GROWING INSIDE OUT – then you start loving that which is of the higher realms – than you love but you love something that would help you to rise to the higher planes – such a love is WORTH it!

And so no matter where you all go – no matter how many places on this planet you visit -no matter how many clubs and resorts you visit – finally PEACE is only to be found – JOY is to be only found- TRUTH is to be only found WHEN you start turning inward – when you start meditating – when you start self realizing the immense significance of taking the name of the Holy Lord.

The more you come closer to your SELF – the more you would start realizing how the ATTRACTIONS take place – the more you would start understanding that ASTROLOGY is nothing but one medium to help you realize the IMPORTANCE of living life with CONSCIOUSNESS. Then you will realize that ASTROLOGY and KARMA are not separated but a small part of the VAST OCEAN called Spirituality.

And so let there be focus on helping each other to be more and more meditative – because until the TV within you is SWITCHED ON – you cannot come to the TRUTH – you cannot understand the forgotten language – the language of Silence.

Silence.

Meditate.

Aum.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru.

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.

What a beautiful question! Such questions come rarely – so I must first thank the questioner for coming up with such a deep question.

Once it happened, it was early morning, and it was a routine for the divine master to have a bath in a nearby river. The master had become old, almost in his late 70s. And so one disciple walked with him towards the river – just to attend him – help him. While walking towards the river – the divine master suddenly stopped, looked into the eyes of his disciple and said “ Mohan, could you please find a piece of clean cloth – just a small piece of cloth.”

Mohan took out his handkerchief – and said “ Master – I have my handkerchief with me – will this do?”

The master just looked at the handkerchief – it was clean.

“This is fine, keep it with you and give it to me when I ask for.” said the compassionate master and he started walking towards the river. The disciple followed….

After having his bath, the divine master dressed up and then they again started walking towards the disciple’s home. As they walked – suddenly a sharp thorn pierced through the feet of the master – the toe started bleeding profusely….

But the master was not moved, he remained undisturbed, looking back at the disciple – the master said: “Mohan – now use that handkerchief as a bandage and wrap it around my bleeding toe.”

The disciple quickly applied his handkerchief as a bandage, and after a while, they again started walking…..

But the disciple was not a common man, he was a meditative person, deep within he was moved by what he had seen. He said, “ Master – you asked to keep the handkerchief as handy – before this happened before your toe was injured – this means that YOU were PERFECTLY AWARE that soon your toe is going to be INJURED. Then why you were NOT able to AVOID what was going to happen?”

And the divine master smiled and said “ Mohan – who can ESCAPE what is to happen? Nobody – not even Krishna, not even Buddha, not even Jesus – nobody can escape the destiny – but with our consciousness, we can always PREPARE ourselves to face destiny in the aptest manner. And that is what I did – I knew that my toe was going to get injured while coming back home and so didn’t I tell you to keep this handkerchief as handy – look now you have wrapped it around my bleeding toes as a bandage! Now come let us walk back home…”

Nobody can escape the destiny – but when you are AWARE – CONSCIOUS of what is going to happen – you can always prepare yourself – mentally, physically and also spiritually!

The divine master was not a common man – he had all the great powers that he could have used to avoid the unfortunate accident – but instead, he prepared himself by keeping a piece of cloth (handkerchief) to dress up his toe that he knew was going to bleed after some time!

And the name of the divine master was Sri Lahiri Mahasaya.

A real photo of Sri Lahiri Mahasaya sitting in the lotus posture.

I humbly salute and prostrate before the divine master Sri Lahiri Mahasaya – the GURU of Sri Yukteswar Giri.

Salute to Sri Yukteshwar Giri Maharaj – the man who wrote the most beautiful book that the world had ever known – “The Holy Science” & “Kriya Yoga”.

Sri Yukteshwar is the Guru of the much famed Yogi Paramhansa Yogananda who wrote the legendary book “Autobiography of Yogi”!

Paramhansa Yogananda – one of the greatest Yogi who introduced the ‘Kriya Yoga’ to the WEST – and also to INDIA in a big big way!

I would appeal to all my dear followers and readers to read His legendary book – “ Autobiography of a Yogi” – published in almost all languages across the world!

When I was in my college days – must be 19 yrs old, I had read this blessed book and then there was no looking back…..the road ahead was clear and I was ready to walk with faith….many hurdles came, many people tried to kill me, many people tried to pull me down, tried to distract me – many, but when you are walking with faith and love in your heart – can anything ever go wrong – can you ever get lost? Never – the love of God is immense – the real question is “How much faith you have in your heart?” And “What you are from within?”

What you are from within – is the real question that you all should ask yourself. How you look is what the MIRROR can tell you. But – WHAT YOU ARE from within – only the ‘self’ can tell you – turn inwards, meditate and discover your ‘self’.

To focus within, to remain engrossed in the Holy Name of the Lord – is always in our hands – what is to happen will go on happening – but YOU remain unmoved, undisturbed – because nobody can escape his or her destiny – but YOU can always empower yourself to FACE what is to COME with much love, faith, patience and DEVOTION in your heart.

The MIND is not willing to remain silent. And silence is the KEY to all our problems. But this silence has to be blissful – insightful – meditative! Then there is an altogether different dimension to our existence – then we are ‘progressing’ in true sense!

But who wants to listen? If I say – people cannot understand. If I share – people start labeling me. If I try to ‘help’ in a true sense – people don’t realize. If I am providing something that has happened to me – something beautiful – people cannot appreciate. How will they – they cannot – because you will APPRECIATE only that – which is also happening within you!

And so in a way, I should thank all you – my followers and readers, because if you are able to understand and appreciate my sharing than it simply means – that there is a beautiful ‘seed’ within you all – that is eagerly waiting to sprout…and now sprouting….

and who knows – a day will come when it will flower, blossom into a beautiful tree that will give birth to many more such ‘trees’ – spreading love through their compassionate ‘shelter’.

Our ‘journey’ should be aimed towards providing shelter to those who are suffering in the ‘heat’ of their own karma. But for that, we should first grow within! Only then can you blossom, can you grow into a beautiful tree – thereby providing shelter (guidance) to all those who *genuinely* seek help!

Always remember there are two types of people – one, who genuinely seek help, and the other who come to ‘test’ you!

Through your own insights, through your own understanding – you all must find out what type of this man or woman is – before you ‘jump’ to help!

Once it happened, an old man was walking through the forest, and he was such a beautiful man. Whole life he had spent in healing the sick, the poor. Many many miracles had happened through his holy healing hands.

On his way….a young woman came. She was suffering from severe cough. She lived in a house that was exactly opposite to the tree – beneath which the old man lived. That tree was his home, at every stage of his traveling, he would seek the shelter of a tree – and the tree would become his home!

And so this young woman thought “this man must be something, let me test if he can heal me.”

She went to him. And the old man was in his own bliss. When the woman asked him if he can heal him, he started laughing – a loud belly laugh. Then he said “ Mai – I would have healed you – had you come with a clean heart, a faithful heart – but I can see that you have come to test me. I can still heal you – but you will not get the results because it is not me, but you – who through your doubting, your testing have created a hurdle for yourself…”

The woman felt embarrassed. She went away, not that she was rejected – but when the patient is doubting or testing the doctor – results never come in its full capacity! Still while leaving – the old man told her certain things to do – which can help her to heal.

The heart of the master is always flowing with compassion and love! How to express such a love – language is really poor!

The journey continued. The master continued walking….

While on his way, he came across an old woman who was bleeding profusely. She said “I don’t know what is happening to me. But whenever I vomit – blood comes out…my daughter-in-law has thrown me out of the house and my son no more cares for me. So I came all the way to this forest and surviving on some fruits that I get from these trees, I have been living here for a few days but from last few days…I am vomiting blood. I always pray to my Lord. Every day and every minute I am praying….I am certain someday – my Lord will send someone to heal me, to cure me……”

And she started crying…..

The heart of the master moved, He said: “ Mother, give me your hand.”

Just a touch, a soft touch of the master – and the woman was healed. After two days, she said, “ I am truly healed, there is absolutely no vomiting and I am feeling so good, so good and I don’t know how to thank you…..”

And her eyes became wet, not knowing how to express her gratitude, she started crying….but this time, the tears were of JOY, of GRATITUDE!

The Lord looked up in the sky and said “ I have done nothing, it is all HIS love, HIS miracle. If you really want to thank, then thank the Lord.”

And then the master left…..

The journey of the master has no destination – for HIM – for the enlightened, the journey itself is the destination! And so the journey never stops – it never can!

You all have to decide what you are and what you want to be. If you want to be doubtful – then be so. And if you want to be faithful – then be so! What you are within – is what you will receive in return!

The young woman was filled with doubts – too much of MIND. She received the result based on her ‘state of awareness/consciousness’.

The old woman such a simple woman. In spite of bleeding profusely, she never even thought or imagined that this man – this old man standing before him is the master of all masters – that the Angel that she had been praying for is standing right before her – she was simply innocent and innocently she shared her state – not knowing that the master himself is listening to her words and that her prayers are going to be answered! And her prayers were answered – the sole reason was her unwavering faith and love for the LORD – and her unending patience!

To me – she was the richest woman on this planet. And to you all – also I insist that it is NOT your luxury cars, and properties, and status that make you rich – it is your pure LOVE, unwavering FAITH and unending PATIENCE that makes you truly RICH!

Sai Baba – His whole life insisted on having just two coins with you – that can make you the richest man or woman in this world! Do you want to know what those two coins are? Find it for yourself from the below words of Sai Baba:

SHRADDHA (FAITH) AUR SABURI (PATIENCE).

Always remember that no matter what has to happen – Good or Bad – it is never against the flow – it is always with the flow….and the flow always ensure that you reach to the ‘seashore’! The question is “Are you going with the flow of your life?”

Don’t interfere, don’t try to go against the flow – don’t try to do something out of your Mind – because the Mind is as good as a monkey! Simply go with the flow of life and you will be able to do so – only when you are a man of heart – a woman of heart – a follower of heart – only then can you go with the flow – and I am simply encouraging you all to move towards your heart. Only then can you find your answers, only then can you understand the words of the master – only then can you relate to me!

Life flows on – like a river – it goes on flowing, meeting many good and bad people – experiencing many bad and good phases – and the more you go experiencing the more you mature – it is a process and you must go with the ‘process’!

And always remember that the BAD experiences or the BAD people – have not wasted your time. Because unless you experience the BAD – how can you appreciate the GOOD! How can you value the GOOD! And so the years you think that have been simply wasted in the company of certain ignorant people – evil people is NOT a WASTAGE – but a great learning experience! So do not regret that has not worked in your favor and with a clean heart continue to walk down the lane of your life – remember the journey never ends – the journey of the soul has no destination!

It is the MIND that goes on targeting/deciding destinations – in reality, there are no destinations and the ‘journey’ simply continues….

You all also have met me on this wonderful journey of mine! It is heart to heart and those who can resonate with me – will find joy and will heal in the process. This is one station where coincidently we have met – a time may come – when my journey will take me to the other station – you all may not see me anymore – because the journey never stops – after one ‘village’ – the next is in the waiting – and the journey continues!

Once it happened, Lao Tzu’s disciple was staying at a village for many months and the villagers had fallen in love with him. His words, his peace, his sharing and they all waited for him to speak, to share and the beautiful ‘journey’ continued….

But one day Lao Tzu’s disciple said to all his followers “ I must leave.”

The villagers were taken aback. They were lost, it was a shock – they became speechless because life without this man had become impossible. Who will now share the beauty that this man was sharing – who will motivate us – who will love us so much, they all simply were taken aback.

They said “ Why? Have we done anything wrong? Then why master – why you talk of leaving us….” And they simply cried – like an innocent child, there was no other way to express their hearts. They simply hugged him, they simply tried to find a way through which they can stop the master from leaving them…..a close disciple came and hugged the master.

The heart of the master moved, but looking into the eyes of a disciple – the master says “ Son, I have to leave. And the reason is that I would not want you and everybody in this village to become dependant on me – if you all have loved me then always remember my words – and those words will help you sail through the many seen, unseen difficulties of this human life. Now let me leave, for the next village is on my way…..and I can see that they too are waiting for me and I must go…..”

And the master left….but only after changing the hearts of the villagers!

Nothing is as beautiful as revolutionary as wonderful as the changing of your heart! It is the greatest miracle of this universe – and what a wonderful quote of Neem Karoli Baba – through his omnipresence he changed millions and millions of hearts – and yet humbly he says “ I do not know anything….”

How to express this love – how to – I am speechless – I am simply speechless!

Salute to this divine man – many came – Steve Jobs was one of them, and many many ‘who’s who’ from all the corners of the world – just to seek his blessings and yet this humble man says “I do not know anything”!

The divine master is always in the bliss of nothingness! For nothingness is the key to everything!

Life is never the same. Change is constant. Except for change – everything else changes! Tomorrow I may also leave this forum – but you all – your journey should continue – for the journey should never stop. It never does!

It is a fact that many jealous men and women will go on causing harm to you – just the way they do to me – along with the GOOD – the BAD also exists – and we all have to ACCEPT this fact. Always remember the existence of BAD is only because there is GOODNESS in this world. Without the existence of the GOOD – the BAD cannot exist! Good and the Bad – both exist and they always exist in balance.

All of us have the dark side and the positive side within us. We are born with the ‘left’ and the ‘right’ – and we have to make sure that we raise the ‘right’ (righteousness – Swadharma) within us by being more and more conscious of our KARMA – our actions.

While going through the bad phases, the evil people – the bad experiences – if we remain conscious – aware than those experiences also will turn out to be a ‘blessing in disguise’! So never fear experiences – no experience goes waste – every experience counts and it counts only if you remain rooted within – conscious.

To expect a life without any difficulties or any challenges is to imagine a ‘crop’ that goes through no rains, no heat, no storms. But then such a crop comes with no ‘grains’ within – it simply grows – grows but without any grains within! What is the use of such growth? It is like a plastic rose – looks perfect – but has no fragrance to it!

The struggles are not to cause you pain – but to help you ‘evolve’ into something much beautiful than you had thought of!

The crop becomes ‘pregnant’ with grains only when it goes through the storms – the winds – the heat – only then it is filled with beautiful ‘grains’ within!

Be a natural rose – a natural crop – yes it goes through a lot of struggle, a lot of difficulties – winds, storms, rains – and yet in the end – it is only this journey of ups and downs that transform it – into a rich crop – into a beautiful rose!

And I would pray – for you all – my followers, readers, and fellow travelers to transform into a rose – a beautiful rose that brings joy and peace to all those who come – let there be more love, more understanding and more peace within.

And so come, come you all – and let us spend some time with our ‘self’ – let the mind do all the wandering – you remember – YOU are NOT the mind. And so sit down and close your eyes and meditate on the Lord’s holy name.

“Aum Namaha Shivaya”.“Aum Namaha Shivaya”.“Aum Namaha Shivaya”.

Let HIS name merge in your breath – let HIS name become the anchor of your life – do not expect anything and everything will come to you – when the time is right – so why you worry? The nature of the MIND is to worry – the suffering is of the MIND – not of yours!

Let there be no fear – for nothing is going to happen to you that is not in harmony with the existence! You just have to go with the flow….without appeasing the monkey mind – without becoming a victim of the mind – without becoming a slave of the mind – and slowly you will come out of the mind – and the moment you slip out of the mind – you come to the state of eternal bliss of happiness of joy! Then there is a song to it, a dance, a poem, a beautiful painting!

Drop all your EGO and come towards your ‘self’ – that is the way – the only way that can help you to slip out of the mind – to go beyond the mind – and that is where the real journey starts – that is where the real birth happens – that is what is Jesus addresses as ‘Reborn’ – the first birth is through the mother – the second through the master! So come – come you all – and turn inwards – and meditate.

The Ego stops you from meditating – the EGO creates many illusions – the EGO is the dancer – the EGO ‘I’ ‘ME’ is the dancer – let us all put this ‘I’ aside and let us all become the ‘dance’!

And when there is no EGO – no dancer – no ‘I’ – no ‘ME’ – absolutely NO thought of ‘I’ am doing something – that is when the showering happens – love happens – than you are no more the same – everything around you is the same but you are no more the same! Then there is a dance to it – a celebration!

Life is a celebration. A celebration of moments. A man who lives moment to moment is a man of awareness – for he is absolutely not bothered about the PAST and not worried about the FUTURE – he is simply HERE – in this NOW moment – and that’s meditation – to BE HERE NOW!

BE HERE NOW – the more you all BE HERE NOW – the more you would be able to experience life in true sense! For the PAST is no more and the FUTURE is not yet – all you have is this NOW moment – and if you miss the moment than you simply go on missing life. For life is neither in the past nor in the future – LIFE is NOW – and if you can BE HERE NOW – then only can you appreciate life – embrace life by living in total ACCEPTANCE – Tathata!

Meditate.

Jai Shri Ganesha. Jai Guru!
