Guest guest Posted May 31, 2005 Report Share Posted May 31, 2005 You are a wonderful teacher Mark. And what is even better is that you are spreading wisdom. Dear Prakash: Thank you!, for your warm words, too. What can I say, Jyotish has given me so many amazing gifts from clarity of mind, to understanding, and even later, the ability to change and improve myself and my lot in life. All I provided was the will! hehe Also, I'd agree with you, when you say: I like the science of Jyothish, > but abhor fatalism. I believe in both Karma and free-will. I am > profoundly influenced by Budha's 4 noble truths. In Truth, both freedom and conditionings, or causality both co-exist. The main problem is that our Intellects have a hard time wrapping around how life can be both free and bound at the same time. But, today, we're also at a stage of development of modern science, Physics, or quantum mechanics, where freedom, and all possibilities, is the only possible explanation for the quantum field level of life. But because we live where our conscious minds, are and because we live on the level of the molecules, which seem to behave more like the conditioned qualities of Newtonian Physics, which acts more like billiard balls instead of the 'waves' of quantum mechanics; no wonder so many people see 'pre-condionings', as the essential characteristic. But, I've been lucky too because my meditative background exposed me completely to 'That' field, which is not caused, and is in Truth, the quintessence of Freedom! That state of being, of I, of existence, of awareness, is the only field that's not involved with some conditionings, or causality. Now, I realize that freedom depends upon how closely identified we are with that 'state of Being'. If we're 20% of that pure state, then our freedom will be 20%! However, we'll also be 80% locked into our karmas, and conditionings. But, each step that we take towards more perfect freedom, or 100% of pure consciousness, then, the more freedom of choice and profundity of action will be lived. This is the Philosophy of Ved, that man, (And woman!, hehe) are both the embodiments of perfection. Everyone has an unlimited natural potential that exists inside, and every aspect of Vedic science from yoga to meditation, to Ayurved, and especially Jyotish, are there to help us unfold that undeveloped potential. The problem Jyotish has had is that it's forgotten about this, and mostly predicts fatalistic kinds of perceptions and predictions. But, if one can learn to change one's inner consciousness, then one will literally change one's Stars! And, even if the future dasa periods, don't change, ie. I think of the dasas and transits, like bills. Somedays we get boons, other days we get debts! But, bills are predictable, and we still have the freedom to either ignore the karma that is coming, and boom!, it hit's with it's complete force, or we strive to double, and even triple our financial resources, so when that bill lands, we've got a lot more wealth, in the bank! Then that debit is not nearly as stressful. Learning how to release Saturn's natural power of silence of Consciousness, will also allow us to weather any emotional or Saturn like grief karmas, so that even those stressful experiences will not tough us. Nice talking with you. Sincerely, Mark Kincaid ps... I'll list the I've created below, in case you want to join any of them. Note that most are free, though there are a couple for those who want to more formally study Jyotish, and those have some fees with them. ciao PSS... please tell me the 4 truths of Lord Buddha and let's see if we can find them, in Jyotish, too! > " Prakash K.B.
