Since a few decades predictive prowess has become the ideal and sole purpose for astrology, and claims and counter-claims and much of the rife and rattle seen globally on the stage of divination? I shall not name any names, but you know who they have been...?
For predictions to come true, flawlessly, one has to view the experiential reality as driven solely by karma (past lifetimes) which creates destiny? Incontrovertible perhaps??
Yet, while the rare few who had been or claimed to be so perfect predictors had been emphasising on their yogic and spiritual practices? These latter associations naturally bring in the confounding factor of intuition, greater and Quantal-KNOWING, which can be almost medium-istical...?
We, who had been here, since the past incarnations of Mystic-Board, going back more than a decade have seen all that and some of THOSE? Have we not??
Like me, you have seen more than one lifetime of this board? Each lifetime of a board on internet or services prior to Internet, represent lifetimes - in experiential sense! Of course, one has to come to terms with the biological definition of a LIFE-TIME? Is it simply the span between a biological birth, maturation, ceremonial death? Or simply experiential births and deaths that happen many times, in each/some/many/most/ALL life-forms -- certainly true for many human beings?
Experiential, of course, for I never had the time, nor resources to turn the quest into that OTHER channel, in so far as astrology (Indian) was concerned...
Dada,
If we take the lifetime as one birth, the Vimshottari dasa of the AK affecting the self as I mentioned about is sinister.
Even if a lifetime is taken as many births, it can be said that the sinister effect is still imminent in this birth.
Is it not?
