Astrology and the Science of Numbers ( Numerology )

Can Numbers represent Reality ? Yes, said Pythagorus. Each

number has a vibration which corresponds to the nine

revolving heavens.

Astrology & Gemology

Flawless gems are auspicious and flawed gems are a source of

misfortune. Richard Shaw Brown, Jr ( www.agt-gems.com)

writes that the Vedic texts which state that pure flawless

gems have auspicious powers ( Garuda Purana, Agni Purana)

are correct. " After 25 years of researching and

experimenting with gemstones, it is our carefully considered

opinion that the Vedic texts are correct. Flawed gems are

simply a source of misfortune, not to mention their being

ugly ! Think about it ! How many people are prepared to

tolerate defects in their clothing, or any other personal

items they possess?. Even a single scratch on a nice

automobile is an eyesore, so why do people tolerate flawed

gems? "

Howard Beckman ( www.p-g-a.org ) writes that different

Chakras absorb different cosmic colors and nourish

particular glands in the body.

Diseases can be cured by using appropriate gems.

Astrology, Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda Regulation of Food,

Sleep and Exercise

" Food is medicine; Medicine is food " said Hippocrates.

"Food is Brahman. Food was verily born before all creatures:

therefore it is called the medicine for all" declares the

Upanishads. By stating that food is the root cause of all

ills & illnesses Vedanta have formulated one of the

foundational principles of holistic health. At least half

the ailments of man can be traced directly or indirectly to

the problems of food. Regulation of food is not easy,

because it is an addiction like alcohol. Problems like

obesity, higher cholesterol level & irritable bowel syndrome

crop up if food is not controlled. By controlling food, the

whole body comes under control. "When taste is conquered

everything is conquered " averrs Vedanta. What really

matters is not how much we eat but how much of what we eat

is transformed into bioenergy & the building materials of

life.

Sir William Osler pointed out many years ago " Only a small

percentage of what we eat nourishes us; the balance goes to

waste and loss of energy". In holistic health, food should

be revered & a proper attitude towards food should be

developed. " Be thankful for all food, for food is Brahman "

said Vivekananda. Six hours have been prescribed for all

even though requirement of sleep varies from person to

person Research studies have indicated that even moderate

levels of exercise bolster the immune system. No amount of

sleep is sufficient for unwinding the mind for it is always

in a tense state under the stressful conditions of modern

life. Antidotes to stress include yogic techniques like

Meditation, prayer, cultivation of the Witness attitude &

practice of absolute self-surrender to the Divine, which

enable us to avoid a lot of unnecessary stress. Doing

nothing or simply lying down is not relaxation. The muscles

when stretched bring in relaxation as it frees them from the

tense condition. Some of the yogic Asanas are highly

effective because they can relax the muscles. There will be

focal point in the body which reflects the mental tension

which one finds oneself in. That focal point of mental

tension should be identified and you can choose that type of

yogic exercise which will relax the muscles & tendons of the

specific focal point of tension in you.

Regulation of Breath "Breathlessness is deathlessness "

averrs Yoga. Regulation of breath gives tremendous

relaxation.Pranayama, without the help of a bona fide

Master, can lead to serious complications. What is needed is

the practice of breathing deeply ( as deeply as possible )

through both the nostrils & then slowly breathing out (

without breath retention ). This kind of regulated deep

breathing can be done at any time, even in your office.

Psychosomatic pain can be alleviated by these simple yogic

techniques more effectively than allopathic pills or

tablets. Here we employ the internal pharmacy of Skill power

in lieu of the external pharmacy of Pill Power!

Vedic Holistic Medicine ( Ayurveda) gives priority to the

Whole and not to the parts, contrary to chemotherapy which

treats the parts only.

Astrology & Yoga

All knowledge is threefold (" Thraigunya Vishaya Veda "). In

Freudian Psycho-analysis we have three impulses, Id, Ego and

Supergo. The Vedantic Satwa, Rajas and Thamas correspond to

these impulses. The mind is always gripped by these three

impulses. Sometimes we are Rajasic ( worldly ) and go after

wealth. When intense anger and other negative emotions grip

us, we are Thamasic. When divine qualities like Love and

Peace influence us, we are Satwic ( divine ). The Ego with

its ten heads ( symbolised as the ten-headed Ravana ) is the

major block in attaining Self_Actualisation. The ten heads

of the Ego are Lust,Anger,Pride, Avarice, Sloth,

Covetousness, Attachment, Mind, Intellect, Conceit &

Egoistic Mentality. Only when the ten heads of the Ego are

removed can we hope to get Self-Realisation. ( Symbolically

only when the Ravana in us is destroyed ). When we do our

yoga, we will be assailed by three type of Ego. Rajasic (

wordly ), Thamasic ( bestial ) and Satwic ( noble ). In

order to overcome the three types of Ego, we are given

certain commandments.

" Ma the Sanghostha karmani " - (Let there be not in you any

attachment to inaction. ) This commandment is given so that

we can overcome the Thamasic ( bestial ) ego.

" Ma Karma Phala Heturbhoo " - ("Dont expect any reward")

This commandment is given to protect us from the Rajasic (

wordly ) ego, which always expects rewards for work done.

"Ubhe Sukruta Dushkrute " ( "Be beyond good and evil " )

This commandment is given to us to overcome the Satwic Ego,

for one should not hang on to Punya ( divine merit ).

In other words, during the process of Yoga, we will be

assailed by all sorts of negative thoughts. Our aim is to

identify with the Source of all thought, the Self. We will

find, as we progress on the path of yoga, that these

negative thoughts leave us slowly and steadily. Conquering

our negative aspect is not easy. The negative elements in

man are the true villains.

Alone, powerful & cruel are the dark and dreadful forces

that profit from the reign of Night and Ignorance and they

dont want any change in the body. We have to annihilate them

one by one.

In tragic life, God wot

No villains need be, passions spin the plot

We are betrayed by what is false within !

The entire Vedic wisdom is contained in one word " Transcend

". Transcend both pain & sorrow, transcend the triune

attributes of Nature. Transcend negativity !.

Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )

Tantra focusses on the Chit-Shakti, the Consciousness-Force

latent in the Universe. The entire Universe is the play and

display of this Cosmic Force and this Force is latent in

human beings as the Kundalini. She rises from the Root

Chakra to the Crown Chakra during Meditation. Tantra is a

similar discipline like Yoga and is very important from the

Divine perspective.

Books as the source of knowledge

Dante's Divina Commedia or Goethe's Faust were never the

product of the Rational Mind. They were the products of the

Intuitive Mind. Books can instruct, they can teach & they

can elevate man from the mundane to the sublime !
