Answers to Lession-2

[Guest guest]

Respected Jyotish Guru:

 

Here are my answers to Lession-2

 

1. Try to define the role of God in your life?

Ans: I think we exist in God(the pure consciousness). So all action on my

part that helped others, was his role in my life. Others that hurt, he will

make sure that I'm paid back with the same coin.

 

2. What have you done in the past one year to come closer to God?

Ans: Well, he is the closest to me, I remind myself and remember HIM.

Knowing that HE is everything around me, I try to serve them as I would

serve HIM.

 

3. Which statement is more relevant:

(a) God is all, or

(b) All is God

 

Ans : Both are true. All existence is in HIM and HE is all that exists.

 

4. How is the role of a Jyotish di®erent from a priest?

Ans: I think a priest is he who know the right way(according to scriptures)

to worship the Lord. He is a hole man, who is in lords service all the time.

Whereas a Jyotish looking at persons chart is in a position to understand

his life pattern therefore give him the right advice which would help him to

led a life which leads to growing inner piece and not fruitless struggle to

fulfil desires.

 

 

with best regards

Om Gurave Namah

Dear Guruji,

 

Here are me answers for 2nd Lesson.

 

1. Role of God.

Earlier I had Athiestic approach to explain all things around me

but over time I realized that this approach is incomplete and hence

wrong.

God for me is complete knowledge and remedy for all pains in Life.

Overtime maybe I'll know more and more about all his/her

wonders.

 

2. What have I done closer to god?.

Started to study Jyotish. Read on Gita, Upanishads, Vedas, Saints,

Puranas(Bhagavatam) etc. Also started mantra and puja practice.

Basically trying to search thru the books.

I hope it does not end up as bookish knowledge.

 

3. 'All is God' is more relevant.

Since 'God is All' could mean that God IS just an equal or subset

of All(Everything) but

'All is God', accepts that everything IS God and leaves room for

Beyond also to become God.

 

4. Difference between Jyotish and Priest.

Jyotish explains the unseen Law of Karma by foretelling the future

and also the various influence of Time on Creations and showing the

acts of God

Priest helps the person to reduce his karma, by helping the

individual in giving various obalations to God and so the

individual is getting closer to God.

 

Your Sincerely

Prabhakaran

Respected Solaiji and Gaurangaji,

 

Here is my humble attempt,

 

1. Try to define the role of God in your life?

 

God is pure consciousness, He is the ocean of all knowing intelligence, He

is like pure light - which has no colour. So He is formless. Again as we see

light when it is reflected in a medium, thus we see and understand nature of

God - when the pure consciousness is reflected through his various forms

like His idols and all beings in this universe including the universe

itself. It is amazing to me when I think of this universe and the perfect

laws by which it moves. This law itself is God.

 

2. What have you done in the past one year to come closer to God?

 

Nothing particular. We cannot go closer to him unless He himself comes to

us. If a person is lost in a dark forest - he can only light a lamp and wait

for help. With the light he cannot see upto much distance, but another

person can see the light even from a long distance and come for help.

Likewise we can only light the lamp of knowledge with devotion and wait for

His coming to us for guidance.

 

3. Which statement is more relevant:

(a) God is all, or

(b) All is God

 

Both are true-as far as I understand. As I am in my body everywhere and

every part of the body is nothing but myself - God is everywhere and

everything is He only.

 

4. How is the role of a Jyotish different from a priest?

 

Priest is like an electrician. He can only connect us to God when everything

is going fine and there is no major breakdown. But Jyotish is the

engineer-who understand the laws of Him and can guide us to the right path

in case of a major breakdowns. Jyotish is like a guru.

 

With best regards,
