Astrology & Vishal Malhotra

Editor — Fri, 30 May 2008 09:09:11 +0000

“I have read a few books by Nostradamus & Mr. Bejan Daruwalla and certain predictions that they have made about the world have proved to be precise and are hard to ignore.

When it comes to astrology just take in all the positive predictions and get charged up for a great day ahead and about the negative ones just ignore them as if you had never read it. That’s the way I do it.”

“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways” - by Madhushri Mukherjee

Editor — Thu, 29 May 2008 05:44:25 +0000

Are you in love? Does this quotation apply to you now? Or are you in matured love where this desperate declaration of the quantum no longer appeals to you?

In any case this counting can never finish. The emotion called love is the only fire that continues to burn even when there is no fuel to feed the fire. You cannot see this flame but this is the true essence of creativity; an emotion that cannot be quantified, compared or bounded in ‘give & take’.

Astrology & Smithaa Gondkar

A person does not “restricts” his actions in future if his Astrology Predictions are made known before hand, only the person’s awareness towards a particular situation grows.

Through experience I believe that, every prediction has some elements that we agree and some that we do not. It is difficult to find prediction that will be 100% correct. Few things are assumed well & few are common statements, which they generic to everyone. I feel we should take positive things out of them and ignore the rest.

A good beginning makes a good ending - by Madhushri Mukherjee

Editor — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 10:29:45 +0000

Where does one begin? At birth of course but the foundation of a new life begins in the parents much before the child is born. In biological terms there are genes that are the same and intellectually there are many similarities between the creative juices of parents and children.
Finally it is the upbringing, exposure to relevant reality that actually gives shape to the person

In Vedic astrology, the beginning or the birth is signified by the Ascendant but what is hidden – the nadir remains in the deapth of the 4th house of the horoscope. (more…)

‘The only thing in life achieved without effort is failure.’ - By Madhushri Mukherjee

Editor — Tue, 01 Apr 2008 04:57:55 +0000

In other words there is nothing to be had as an achievement in life unless there is effort. One can only evolve with effort and time. One can be a very wealthy person by birth and have a very comfortable and luxurious life but that is not an achievement. Achievements are those that happen by self-effort fructifying a certain desire.

Are you charged and fuelled by a certain will to achieve? This ‘will to achieve’ is made dynamic with effort. So a ‘wish’ gives seat to ‘desire’ & effort fulfills it as a ‘mission’. This way each achievement is fulfillment of a certain mission. (more…)

Wash away your mental demons with colors! -by Raj Rao

Editor — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 11:58:14 +0000

Do you hear voices in your head?
Do you find yourself confused and unable to take decisions?
you have perhaps allowed Hiranyakashipu to take over your life. Let me relate a story:

In Vaishnava Theology, Hiranyakashipu is the king of demons, and he had been granted a boon by Brahma, which made it almost impossible for him to be killed. The boon was due to his long penance after which he had …

The gift of gab - by Madhushri Mukherjee

Editor — Tue, 11 Mar 2008 06:33:53 +0000

Are you the one that always steps in and leads the group conversation? Do you have what it takes to be the life of the party? If yes then you will go far in life.

Turn a conversation into an interesting anecdote and remain in the minds of everyone - this is the dream & desire of many but very few can actually manage to achieve it. Some try for it with a lot of gusto and end up in a mess. It is better to be quiet than be loud and talk ten to a dozen.

I am who I am - by Madhushri Mukherjee

Editor — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 09:07:52 +0000

The above is something that all of us have said sometime - may be in anger or in acceptance. What is this ‘I’? Why does it have so much power and have us completely under its control?

Are you in control of your life or this ‘I’ is in control of your life? If the former is true then you are in the right path. In sublime terms this ‘I’ is our innermost entity but in most cases it is simply a volatile ego that inflates at the smallest blowing in of wind. (more…)

Most people, when they hear this statement, are likely to say, “Ahh, not really.

Are you putting on excess FAT? – blame it on your Jupiter!- by Raj Rao

Editor — Tue, 27 Nov 2007 11:59:08 +0000

Indians seem to have caught up with the cultural premium that the western society has been putting on looking young with a slim and trim body and generally paying more attention to their shape and size of it. Astrologically, we are paying more attention to the First House (or Ascendant or Lagna), which represents our body, than any other area of our life (or Horoscope).

Understanding some basics of medical astrology can help you in planning your process of weight loss.
