Can Vedic Astrology Foretell the Future?

Can Vedic Astrology Foretell the Future ? The unpredictability of future has always driven mankind willy-nilly to the soothsayers. But can the future be truly foretold? The question is highly debatable. Fortune-tellers read the palm and the forehead, the stars and the planets, and most essentially a person's heart and mind. Then they magniloquently state the fate of the person and enlightens her,  as they say, by attempting to focus the cosmic light on an individual's true life path. 'Jyotish' - Dispeller of Darkness The Indian 'science' of foretelling the future - which has become popular as Vedic Astrology the world over, is called 'Jyotish Vidya' or the 'Science of Light'. 'Jyotish', (jyot = light, ish = god) can also be defined as the 'Light of God'. Sacred scriptures refer to Jyotish Vidya as the key to understanding the soul's intention for incarnation. And the Vedic Astrologer or 'Jyotishi', is considere...

The control of the 5 senses

The control of the 5 senses : इन्द्रियाणां विचरतां विषयेष्वपहारिषु । संयमे यत्नमातिष्ठेत् विद्वान् यन्तेव वाजिनां॥  इन्द्रियाणां प्रसंगेन दोषमृच्छत्यसंशयं। संनियम्य तु तानेव ततः सिद्धिं नियच्छति ॥ न जातु कामाः कामानामुपभोगेन शाम्यति । हविषा कृष्णवर्त्मेव भूय एवाभिवर्धते ॥ वेदास्त्यागश्च यज्ञाश्च नियमाश्च तपांसि च । न विप्रदुष्टभावस्य सिद्धिं यच्छन्ति कर्हिचित् ॥ MEANING: The five senses chase the objects of their desire which powerfully attract them. Wise men should endeavour to keep them under control like a horseman controls his horses. There is no doubt that, ultimately, only something bad comes out of the attachment of the senses to their objects.

It only flares up again like a fire into which ghee is poured while performing havan. Study of vedas, sacrifices, performance of yagnas, niyamas (ahimsa, truth in thought...

From Caste to Casteism

Today casteism is rampant. It is a new phenomenon. Old India had castes but not casteism. In its present form, casteism is a construct of colonial period, a product of imperial policies and colonial scholarship. It was strengthened by the breast-beating of our own “reformers”. Today, it has acquired its own momentum and vested interests. In the old days,  the Hindu caste system was integrating principle. It provided economic security. One had a vocation as soon as one was born.- a dream for those threatened with chronic unemployment. The system combined security with freedom; it provided social space as well as closer identity; here the individual was not atomised and did not become rootless. There was also no dearth of social mobility; whole groups of people rose and fell in the social scale. Rigidity  about the old Indian castes is a myth. Ziegenbbalg writing on the eve of the British advent saw that at least one-third of the people practised other than their traditi...
