Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 But I do want to thank Ramadas and Jay and Imran for such a great and selfless amount of help - thankyou so much!!!!!!!! and all of the other list members whom hav helped me so much - again thankyou !!!!! Shamira M M - monmuk111 vedic astrology Saturday, September 07, 2002 7:12 AM [vedic astrology] response to Visti Hello Visti:Your response about the "Soul" jives with the response that Kanupriya just posted that upon attaining moksha, the soul becomes one with god. This solves my puzzle.Visti, as to your notes on "discrimination," let me remind you that 500 years of atrocities committed by the Muslim rulers against my ancestors cannot be washed away by my attempt to live a righteous life. I guess in my attempts to live a righteous life, I don't physically retaliate against the Muslims. However, the verbal venom is a good release. Now, you may say that having hate in my heart itself contradicts my attempt to be righteous. However, you tell me--don't you feel hatred against the Muslims for the atrocities commited by the Ottoman Turks in Europe (assuming your ancestors came from Europe)? OR won't you feel hatred against the Muslims for the atrocities being committed right now in the holy land against the Jews, assuming you're a Jew?In any case, you answered my question regarding the atma and I'd love to continue learning astrology on this board. Visti, I just posted one more question on heaven and hell, please check it out and enlighten me once more with your profound response if you have an opinion on this subject. Thank you.MD> Vyam Vysaadevaaya Namah> > --> > Dear MD,> The soul 'parks' its sense of individuality at the doorstep, and realises that its non-different from the rest of bhagawan/allah/god.> > I am deeply agrieved to see people use such discriminating words such as 'islamic savage'. I would not dare teach astrology to someone who uses such words, or has such values/beliefs, as this far from qualifies one from being fit to USE this knowledge.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Hi MD, You dont have to go back too far in history to see how people can forget previous animosities and come together as one - look at Germany in the European Union. There is absolutely no antagonism towards Germans in Europe anymore, though people who suffered through German actions are still alive there. England bombed Dresden, one of the most beautiful German cities into dust. Yet Germany today does not bear a grudge towards England, and there are very cordial relationships between the two countries and peoples. Germany bombed London during the blitz. Yet today, the English are not really angry with the Germans, or the Japanese for their part or with the Italians. In fact, people who were prisoners of war, often went back after the war to meet up with the people who were their captors, as friendships had been formed and even marriages. Yet both the Germans and the Japanese were responsible for some very horrific things in the 20th century. Justice can still be brought to bear without generalised anger at a whole people. In these circumstances, keeping alive memories that are far more distant in history (i.e. Muslim destruction of Hindu temples) seems to me quite artificial. Neither you nor anyone you personally know were alive then. So these angers are based on written sources. Your anger is directed at people who were not alive then or responsible for those events. Their only connection stems from the fact that they are either descended from that lineage, or even converted to that particular belief system later! And your stance on behalf of the Hindus is that you happen to be born into a particular time and place in this life. Let it go. Also, should your anger not be more correctly directed at the events that are happening all around the world today? Look at Rwanda and the massacre of the Tutsis while the world looked on. Look at the oppression of women in Pakistan and Afghanistan where they are forbidden civil equalities. Look at the dowry burnings in India. How about the civil wars in Africa that allow vast populations to die of famine in the midst of plenty? How about the abject poverty that subjects many people to long term, grinding suffering in practically every country? This happens even in developed coutries - when I first went to London, I was appalled by the number of people sleeping outside in winter, in cardboard boxes. There is plenty to hate in todays world without having to search through the mists of history. These are current atrocities. And the best thing is, it is actually possible for an individual, even though on a very small scale, to do something about these. As someone once said, it is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2002 Report Share Posted September 7, 2002 Hare Rama Krishna Dear MD, This is ALL MAYA. Your birthright does not make you who you are. Best wishes, Visti. - monmuk111 vedic astrology Friday, September 06, 2002 11:42 PM [vedic astrology] response to Visti Hello Visti:Your response about the "Soul" jives with the response that Kanupriya just posted that upon attaining moksha, the soul becomes one with god. This solves my puzzle.Visti, as to your notes on "discrimination," let me remind you that 500 years of atrocities committed by the Muslim rulers against my ancestors cannot be washed away by my attempt to live a righteous life. I guess in my attempts to live a righteous life, I don't physically retaliate against the Muslims. However, the verbal venom is a good release. Now, you may say that having hate in my heart itself contradicts my attempt to be righteous. However, you tell me--don't you feel hatred against the Muslims for the atrocities commited by the Ottoman Turks in Europe (assuming your ancestors came from Europe)? OR won't you feel hatred against the Muslims for the atrocities being committed right now in the holy land against the Jews, assuming you're a Jew?In any case, you answered my question regarding the atma and I'd love to continue learning astrology on this board. Visti, I just posted one more question on heaven and hell, please check it out and enlighten me once more with your profound response if you have an opinion on this subject. Thank you.MD> Vyam Vysaadevaaya Namah> > --> > Dear MD,> The soul 'parks' its sense of individuality at the doorstep, and realises that its non-different from the rest of bhagawan/allah/god.> > I am deeply agrieved to see people use such discriminating words such as 'islamic savage'. I would not dare teach astrology to someone who uses such words, or has such values/beliefs, as this far from qualifies one from being fit to USE this knowledge. What ill could a racist do with the knowledge of astrology? its like giving a fisherman a torpedo.> > CORRECT YOURSELF! - Discrimination is also a sin, and you won't be allowed into any higher lokas where there are any 'islamic savages'.. instead you will get a lower loka, with people of like-minds.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2002 Report Share Posted September 7, 2002 >Hi respected jyotishi people. If someone knows anything about the relationship between Parivartana Yoga and cancellation of debility could they please let me know. The "response to Visti" message interersted me. Moksha is liberation from Samsara, Samsara means wheel and refers to the continual cycle of birth and rebirth ie: reincarnation. A persons state of mind at the time of their death determines the situation they are born into in their next life. Your horoscope is an image of your state of mind at the very end of your previous life. And your state of mind at that time is a collection of the thoughts and actions you performed in you're life. Those thoughts and activities generated results (karma) and created behavioural patterns (samskara's)that are mapped and interpreted through jyotish. But it's not until an individuals accumulated karma is liquidated that Moksha becomes a reality instead of an abstract theory. What is distant and abstract in your life is ruled by the twelfth house in a chart which is the indicator of your'e chance of obtaining Moksha. Moksha is the perfect escape, and people with strengths in their twelfth house will go through intense but temporary experiences that seperate them from mundane reality.
