Every minute of today’s life counts. One minute lost cannot be gained and lot of things can happen without that one minute. If we go one minute late for an exam, we may lose out being the top-scorer in the exam or even clearing the exam (for today everything is competitive). In such a fast-moving busy world, is there any way to control time? Is there any way to go beyond time? These are questions that haunted the minds of ancient seers (sages or rishis). Unlike the people of today these seers didn’t stop their analysis with the external world but they continued searching in their mind as well. As a result their analysis was thorough. They were able to find out the entity of Brahman which is the substratum of the entire world and thereby that which is beyond time itself. It is through realization of Brahman that a person goes beyond time – nobody can control time but we can go beyond time (this means that time doesn’t affect us at all). But knowing that it is impossible for majority of people to know Brahman, these sages also gave us the science of astrology or jyothisha. This science helps us to find out the right time (auspicious time) for everything. Predictions based on our time will also help us anticipate problems in life; anticipation of problems will ensure that we face them in a better way (without getting much affected) – this is like a person who knows that the roads will be bad as a result of bad weather and therefore is prepared to drive cautiously. Today in an era where all our ancient sciences are seen in a skeptical way, we should try to understand the importance of these sciences. Even little knowledge of such sciences will eradicate a lot of problems that we face in life. For example if it is shown from the horoscope of a person that he will have fights with his wife then horoscope matching will have to be done properly to ensure that such fights are limited (and doesn’t cause problems to marriage). This is unlike today where most of the marriages end up in divorce because of compatibility issues with partner. Such issues can be anticipated and removed if jyothisha was used (even to the bare minimum). It isn’t just marriage that is benefitted by jyothisha but everything ranging from life to education to profession to accidents etc. can be predicted with good accuracy and therefore all problems that might happen can be averted easily. Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha 3 Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Vijaya) Many people think that the science of astrology is wrong as many predictions go wrong; the fault isn’t with astrology but with astrologers who aren’t well versed in the science. Even as few doctors who aren’t adept in diagnosing cause issues to all doctors, similarly few astrologers cause bad name to all astrologers. Since astrology is the eye of the Vedas therefore it is through the system of Vedanta that astrology can be properly mastered. Only a brahmajnaani (knower of Brahman or realized master) can predict accurately through astrology as to what might happen in the future. Therefore aspiring astrologers, in addition to learning astrology, should also start learning and implementing Vedanta in their life. A little effort towards astrology and Vedanta will ensure that one becomes a good astrologer and is able to help himself and others avert dangers in the future; thereby all will be able to lead a smooth life towards the goal of moksha in this very birth itself. May we all strive to learn and implement the science of astrology in our day to day life so that we will be able to progress smoothly towards moksha and attaining moksha we will be able to ever rejoice in bliss here and now itself. Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha 4 Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Vijaya) Jyothishavidanustaana Vivaranam Astrology and Astrologer Till now we have analyzed the basics of astrology; the various aspects of astrology. These are essential in order to learn and understand the science of astrology. But though there are numerous books and works on astrology still we find that people who are well versed in the science of astrology are very less indeed. Though many claim to know and practice the science of astrology still very few are those who are well-versed in the science of astrology and therefore are able to predict accurately as to what would happen in the future. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that astrology is not just a divine or vedic science but a logical one as well. Understanding of astrology requires a sharp mind and intellect. Minds that are not focused and intellects that are not equipped with proper logic will not be able to learn astrology, let alone practice it. Most of the works on astrology briefly tell about what is required in an astrologer or who is an astrologer but we can’t find any work that emphasizes on how to become a good astrologer. Since we have already covered the basics of astrology through the series of Jyothisha Vivaranam we will start another series where emphasis is not on the science of astrology but on how to become a good or true astrologer. We will learn gradually as to how to become a true astrologer through a set of sutras. Sutras are knowledge provided in capsule form – they should have bare minimum words for explanation (and for ease of remembrance as well) but should explain everything that needs to be explained. Putting concepts in the shortest way possible while being very clear isn’t that easy but due to the grace of Ishwara there are many sutras available that explain different concepts or systems in very concise, simple and clear terms. This sutra work is titled as Jyothishavidanustaanasutram (or sutraani). This series is titld as Vivaranam which means explanation. Anustaanam is practices. Jyothishavid is one who is well versed in the science of jyothisha or a person having deep knowledge of jyothisha. This set of sutras is explanation on the practices required in order to become a jyothishavid. Many of us are so focused on learning the science or tenets of astrology that we miss out on Vetti yah vedaangam sa aapnothi paramam padam prathikoolanivaarakam mokshopakaarakam cha 5 Jyothisha Prakaasham Kanya (Vijaya) the practices essential in order to become a true astrologer. This work makes up for what we are missing in our life in order to become a true astrologer. 41 is considered a very sacred number in the tantra or shakta system – it is called a mandala and a mandala of proper practices will fulfil our all desires (as a result of apprehending the grace of Devi). This work consists in total of 41 sutras. All these sutras are important to be at least understood and implemented in life for only then will we be able to become a true astrologer. We will start the explanation of sutras from the next month but now let us briefly discuss as to what is one of the most important point in becoming a true astrologer. Astrology and Vedanta Astrology though is used in order to analyze the past and the present, is mainly used in order to predict the future. In brief, astrology is a look into time itself or that which takes us beyond time. As simple as it seems, going beyond time isn’t easy. It is only possible when we achieve that entity which is beyond time. That there is an entity beyond time is known only through the system of Vedanta (the Upanishads). Everywhere else we focus on the three limitations of time, space and causation alone. Vedanta beautifully says that if time is one of the factor of existence itself, then there should be something beyond time; for time itself is changing. Every minute is passing by and this itself means that time is constantly changing. Saying that something which changes is alone real is foolish for then how would we relate the past with the present? Such comparisons are only possible if there is a changeless entity, that which doesn’t change with respect to time. This changeless entity is termed in the scriptures or Vedanta as Brahman. It is through knowledge of this entity that we can go beyond time. It is only when we go beyond time that we will be able to predict the future for the welfare of the entire world. But knowledge of Brahman is both very simple and very tough also. It is very simple because it is our very nature of Consciousness (that which pulsates inside as I-exist, I-exist at all times). It is also very tough for we are so identified and associated with the entire world that we cannot get rid of these and realize our very nature of Brahman.
