I liked it. And I also like\u00a0Ketu. Only a man of awareness can like\u00a0Ketu, can love\u00a0Ketu. And this is of significance, but only to a meditative man, only to a man who is turning inwards!<\/p>\n\n<blockquote><strong>&#8220;I want the world to realize that turning inward is the greatest joy. In comparison, any other pleasure is a regressive step.&#8221;\n&#8211; SADHGARU\u00a0<\/strong><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"q-box\">\n<div class=\"q-box\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Before we understand what is Ketu 7 &#8211; let us first understand the difference between a mad man and an awakened man. Unless you understand this &#8211; you cannot understand Ketu in seventh house &#8211; you would miss, simply miss the whole beauty of it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Have you seen a mad man? A mad man looks at you &#8211; but his look is totally empty look. A madman looks at your face, but you can see he is not looking at you. He just looks through you as if you are a glass thing, transparent; you are just in the way, he is not looking at you. And you are transparent for him: he looks beyond you, through you. He looks without looking\u00a0at\u00a0you; the &#8220;at&#8221; is not present, he simply looks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Have you ever seen a Yogi &#8211; a great Yogi? A Yogi also looks at you &#8211; but his look is totally empty look. He looks beyond you &#8211; as if your whole being is being scanned &#8211; but this time &#8211; it is a conscious look, it is a look of awareness, it is an observation with consciousness!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">A mad man has jumped &#8211; beyond. A Yogi has also jumped &#8211; beyond. The only difference is the former has done it out of ignorance &#8211; the later has done it out of consciousness! The similarity is the courage to \u2018Jump\u2019! And only that man can experience God, who has the daring to \u2018Jump\u2019!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Now imagine &#8211; when a mad man is guided by the enlightened Yogi &#8211; how easy it would be transform a mad man into the Buddha, the enlightened! And that is what\u00a0Meher Baba\u00a0&#8211; the greatest divine master did.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"q-box\">\n<div class=\"q-box\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"q-image qu-cursor--default qu-display--block\" src=\"https:\/\/qph.cf2.quoracdn.net\/main-qimg-a7557d2f6358e10cb75a19661c4ad757-lq\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Nobody has tried to see the great experiment that Meher Baba did.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Baba traveled all over the country to catch hold of all kinds of madmen, because they are just very close to God. Only one thing is needed: somebody is needed who can shake them back to their sanity. Then they can become great Masters. Just a little sanity will be needed; then their madness will have a method in it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">The madman, if in the hands of enlightened people, can achieve enlightenment faster than your so-called sane people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">In this century one man revived it again \u2013 his name was\u00a0Meher Baba. He went all over India seeking and searching for mad people. In all the madhouses, anywhere that he heard there was a madman, he would go. He traveled all over India his whole life,\u00a0searching for mad people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">His disciples asked him,\u00a0\u201cWhy are you wasting your time with mad people when sane people are available to work upon, and they want your time?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Meher Baba said, \u201cYou don\u2019t 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, \u201cPlease don\u2019t go out from the wrong door, go from the right door. Being out is perfectly right, but choose the right door.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">And Meher Baba turned many mad people into enlightened people.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote><strong>&#8220;&#8221;It is a strange world. Here, really great things are never rewarded. Nobody has bothered about Meher Baba. Mother Teresa will get a Nobel prize because she looks after poor orphan children, and nobody thought of giving a Nobel prize to Meher Baba who really did a miraculous job-and he was the only man, after centuries.&#8221;\n&#8211; Osho&#8221;<\/strong><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"q-box\">\n<div class=\"q-box\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">And great people also never expect any rewards, but this quote is just a way of the master to express the great work done by the divine master Meher Baba!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">So one has to understand that a\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0person is just like a mad man &#8211;\u00a0as far as relationship\/marriage is concerned!\u00a0Just a change from ignorance to consciousness &#8211; and you see the same mad man transforming into a greatest\u00a0ascetic\u00a0&#8211; that the world had ever known!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">You see &#8211; that is the whole beauty of\u00a0KETU\u00a07- just a shift from\u00a0ignorance to consciousness\u00a0&#8211; and you see a mad man who otherwise would jump into relationships\/marriages without thinking &#8211; without putting his consciousness into action &#8211; without being bothered of consequences &#8211; is now SUDDENLY transforming into an\u00a0ascetic\u00a0&#8211; who no more is interested in sex, in relationships, in marriage &#8211; he has been there, done that &#8211; he have had so much of sexual relationships in the past life &#8211; that as soon as someone as divine as Meher Baba comes to his life &#8211; he is quick to drop everything and just start following HIM &#8211; the master &#8211; experiencing a total transformation &#8211; inside out!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Peter, the fisherman was such a man &#8211; for the first time &#8211; he meets Jesus Christ. And Jesus says to him \u201cLook into my eyes, follow me and I will make you the fisher of men.\u201d And Peter, the fisherman could sense something in this young man &#8211; His Aura, His voice, His glow &#8211; and Peter drops everything and starts following Jesus &#8211; no questions are asked, no doubts are raised &#8211; Peter simply starts following Jesus &#8211; and this illiterate fisherman goes on to become the greatest saint that the Christians had ever known &#8211; Peter, the fisherman becomes Saint Peter. Today, the city of\u00a0Saint Petersburg\u00a0which is Russia&#8217;s second-largest\u00a0city\u00a0after Moscow, is named after this illiterate fisherman &#8211; Peter!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">KETU\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; can either lead the native into many wrong relationships\/marriage(s) &#8211; because he or she \u2018Jumps\u2019 out of ignorance and\u00a0not\u00a0consciousness. Peter, the fisherman jumps &#8211; but NOT out of ignorance, but out of consciousness &#8211; his understanding is so deep &#8211; he is such a beautiful man who listens to his heart &#8211; that he simply \u2018Jumps\u2019 in the unknown &#8211; but with consciousness and NOT ignorance.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">KETU\u00a07\u00a0man or women suffer in legalized relationship to which the human world calls\u00a0\u2018marriage\u2019!\u00a0However as long as the relationship is not legalized, they remain happy as a couple &#8211; or as lovers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">KETU\u00a07\u00a0are submissive to their partner\/s. Simply because they are not much bothered of the intentions of the \u2018other\u2019 person &#8211; namely husband or lover. So if other aspects are not good then such a person also becomes a victim in relationships or marriage(s). In contrast a much highly evolved soul &#8211; simply drops the idea of marriage or even sexual relationships and heads towards the beyond &#8211; he simply accepts asceticism &#8211; not by chance but by choice! And so you see many Sadhus, Sanyasi or even great Yogis with\u00a0Ketu\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; provided other aspects also support their asceticism!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">One has to see &#8211; one has to examine whether the chart is inclined towards extrovert mind (RAHU) or introvert mind (KETU). If the inclination is more towards <a href=\"https:\/\/thehealingastro.com\/blog\/blogs-on-rahu\/\">RAHU<\/a> &#8211; then\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0leads the individual to many miseries &#8211; and that is obvious! Whenever you follow RAHU &#8211;\u00a0KETU\u00a0makes sure that your life becomes more miserable &#8211; in fact the native does become miserable. So it depends on whether you are RAHU-ish or KETU-ish!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Sexual satisfaction is not derived in totality through\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; because\u00a0KETU\u00a0&#8211; at the very high moment of sexual union &#8211; gives up and so the partner of\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; often is denied the sexual pleasure. Erection lasts for short time &#8211; and so sex often becomes a fairy tale that is only imagined but never practiced in reality! If it is a woman &#8211; then interest in sex less, and so the husband is often denied sexual satisfaction. And so &#8211; many times separation or extra-marital affairs happen. So\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0creates many marriage problems for souls who are not much evolved. A\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0should never marry a RAHU\u00a07. The honeymoon simply flops &#8211; Rahu wants more sex and\u00a0Ketu\u00a0is not interested in having more sex &#8211; so the combination of RAHU\u00a07\u00a0and\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0is disastrous &#8211; unless other aspects rush to help!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">However\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0is not the only deciding factor &#8211; since the sub-lord or the lordship of\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0also are the most influencing energies &#8211; D9 chart and moreover the Chalit Chart is also of great significance before you come to the final conclusion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">The only positive sign for\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0is when\u00a0KETU\u00a0is in Pisces &#8211; here\u00a0Ketu\u00a0feels relaxed &#8211; safe and secured &#8211; it is its home sign and so here\u00a0KETU\u00a0is bit soft than otherwise. But still as they say &#8211; you may apply as much salt to Karela ( Bitter -Gourd ) &#8211; still the taste remains bitter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">But the question is not what happens with\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; the real question is WHY\u00a0KETU\u00a07!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">Existence wants\u00a0KETU\u00a07\u00a0individual to payback for the many sexual relationships he or she had in the past life. Now the existence is simply denying the sexual happiness to the native &#8211; it is simply stating that \u201cYou had enough in the past &#8211; now pay attention to your \u2018self\u2019 &#8211; focus on your self- growth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">But ignorant men don\u2019t get it and so they continue to stand in the queue of that window &#8211; where the \u2018tickets\u2019 have exhausted. There is no ticket left and yet these ignorant beings stand in the queue &#8211; even though the window is closed &#8211; they keep standing &#8211; expecting that someday the window will open and they would get the ticket to a happy satisfying sexual union or marriage!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">The conscious man simply is never found at the window stand &#8211; he is perfectly aware &#8211; he is no more interested for any \u2018ticket\u2019 &#8211; he is on his way to the greatest ticket of the universe &#8211; the \u2018ticket\u2019 of\u00a0meditation!<\/p>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">The man who desires is an escapist. Now, it is very strange that a man who meditates is thought to be an escapist. That is utter nonsense. Only the man who meditates is NOT an escapist &#8211; everybody else is.<\/p>\n\n<blockquote><strong>&#8220;Meditation means getting out of desire, getting out of thoughts, getting out of mind.<\/strong>\n<strong>Meditation means relaxing in the moment, in the present. Meditation is the only thing in the world which is not escapist, although it is thought to be the most escapist thing.&#8221;\u00a0<\/strong>\n<strong>-OSHO<\/strong><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"q-box\">\n<div class=\"q-box\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"q-text qu-display--block qu-wordBreak--break-word qu-textAlign--start\">KETU\u00a07\u00a0&#8211; is a \u2018blessing in disguise\u2019 &#8211; but only for a man who meditates, only for a man who is living with consciousness, only for a man who understands the true essence of what love is!<\/p>\n\n<blockquote><strong>&#8220;Love should be like breathing.
