Guest guest Posted December 28, 2006 Report Share Posted December 28, 2006 Also this seemingly lofty, idealistic pronouncements from those requesting readings (that you were responding to, Gopuji) that astrological readings must be free are simply hypocritical! Astrologers give free readings for different reasons and varying motives (physically and spiritually speaking!). It is ridiculous of any free-reading seeker to stroll in on a whim and post the rulings for those who spend a lot of time and then be expected to provide free readings! If people who have been giving free readings here or elsewhere for months or years to come and share their personal thoughts about free readings or not would be acceptable but not from anyone else! Too bad!! For such posters: Not every jyotishi has the same karmic burden and we all have individual karmas and reasons for doing what we do, including charging or not! And our individual karma may not necessarily fit your personal world-view or convenience.
