I identify with the school of ethics primarily because of the job i do.  Plato tried very hard to look at the differences between right and wrong and morality.  Where ethics becomes difficult and sticky is when you have to sacrifice the one person for the greater good. Problem being, ethi...

Is the world an illusion?

Is the world real or unreal? Both or neither? Discuss this calmly, but do not just say yes or no. Try to substantiate what you say with logic and evidence. Don't just say, 'this is my view, and that's that.' I am sure people will be interested in knowing as to why you hold such views, so it'll be gr...

Thank you, Rajitha. I was wondering whether rahu's influence causes this, if rahu is in 7th, is it called rahu dosha? Maybe, that's the reason.

That's exactly what happened, damn! :smt011

Seeing snakes in dreams!

Dear Pandits,

Is there any significance to seeing snakes in dreams, especially if one doesn't have sarpa dosha or any other dosha?

No psychoanalysis please, only astrology here.

Euthanasia

Most people seem to be against it, citing various reasons, not all of them convincing. I feel it's necessary, when a person's suffering from a horrible, debilitating disease like cancer. Most people in my family have died of cancer, and trust me, it's unbearable even to watch them suffer. :smt010 So...

Re: Which Planet causes Skin Problems? [Is it due to Kendrad

Mercury is implicated as it represents prithvi tattwa which is the same as that of skin. Apart form this Ketu, and certain positions in navamsas (e.g. gemini karakamsa etc). Involvement of Sun and Mars would indicate disease of inflammatory nature, e.g. if involving skin, it can give rashes. astrol...

I think being ogled at depends also on how the attention is being given :) In general, if they are respectful, it's a great ego-booster! I think it largely depends on the person concerned. Think about it. Even if a woman is ogled at multiple times, but all of it has come from ugly men, do you think...

Yes!
