Guest guest Posted February 20, 2001 Report Share Posted February 20, 2001 Dear Angie, Regarding what i meant for people not having interest about spiritual life, i meant people in general in the last 10 years and next 5 years. In the 60's with the Flower Power movement, we saw a lot of people asking about spiritual values. The 70's as well but going on decline. By the 90's we saw an awareness in people regarding GM food & saving ecology etc. In my own experience, although spiritual knowledge is my priority, whenever i do astrological readings, people in general do not want to hear about spirituality. I travel a lot in the North part of England & have a lot of friends that whenever i visit them they talk about vedic knowledge, but they i would say are already established in the spiritual culture. The rest of people want to hear only about new jobs, new relationships or bad ones, money matters, health problems, travel prospects etc. Few of them ask or like to hear about higher knowledge. Many of them even ask me What is vedic astrology? We as vedic astrologers are supposed to learn a lot about the vedas to build up our character & learning, & i am sure that the time will come when people are going to start to say Pleas tell me more about vedic teachings, but no at present, maybe in a couple of years from now there is going to start to be a demand for it & we should get ready for that. I read in the Astrological Magazine of the late B.V. Raman (many years ago) that some vedic astrologers in india accept the date 18 february 3102 BC as thre beginning of the present Kali Yuga, which last for 432,000 years. The Maha yugas are 4 yugas & the first one called Satya last 4 times Kali yuga; the next, Treta last 3 times KY; Dwapara last 2 times KY. The total of those 4 yugas multiplied by 1,000 is only 12 hours of Lord Brahma. In Satya yuga, people live better lives than the rest of the yugas and in Kali yuga, corruption, low moral values, hypocresy, frictions, wars etc are more prominent. However, there is a mini golden age of 10,000 years within kali yuga that started about 500 years ago. In this golden age, a vedic age is going to re-appear, so we have to wait & see. Just like at the beginning of the Spring we somedays see very cold days, in this mini-golden age we can see bad days which will get better later on.
