I am often asked this question - why do I call myself "An Astrologer who doesn't predict?" #VedicAstrology #Psychology
I respond in different ways depending on who is asking the question and it's context. #VedicAstrology #Psychology
If this sounds strange, then let me explain the way I see my role as a Practicing Astrologer. #VedicAstrology #Psychology
My area of work is Vedic Astrology and the discipline is based on planetary positions, and that of nakshatras.
Multiple factors are taken into consideration before making a judgement and based on that the advise is given. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
Yes, I call it advise. I had much rather call myself an Astro Advisor or Astro Analyst, a Planner even. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
Why? The reason is simple. Vedic Astrology doesnt work on linear logic or binaries, multiple scenarios are examined before clarity emerges. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
This clarity leads us to understand YOGS which in simple terms could be called possibilities. Thus, my job is to alert clients to possibilities rather than "predict." #VedicAstrology #psychologist
When I spell out possibilities, I also try and see possible roadblocks. Which leads me to suggest remedies. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
Thus, I always tell people ofbpossibilities that exist & to help them take advantage of them or of favourable situations, they could take the following recourse. Apart from, of course, working towards making things happen.
So, instead of predicting, I deal in possibilities.
Another point: most people seek astrological advice in tough times. Yes, you must, but when things are Hunky Dory, why assume that they shall always be so? Why not get a reading done to ensure that you are ready and prepared for the good times as well as bad? #VedicAstrology
What I mean is: protect yourself against possible problems and prepare yourself such that you can make the most of the opportunities that lie ahead. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
While advising on roadblocks and opportunities my training as a psychologist comes in very handy. I am able to size up people by gauging their confidence levels and enthusiasm and thus make highly informed suggestions. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
There are times when I realise that a person has everything in favour except the ability to convert an opportunity into a positive result. And then there are go-getters who will light up the whole sky even as they see just the thinnest of silver linings. #VedicAstrology
My planning for different types of people thus varies, as do the remedies. There are times when I have recommended therapies that have indeed helped people capitalize on what possibly lies ahead. #VedicAstrology #psychologist
So, what do you say? To benefit from astrological advice combined with psychological inputs, DM me or connect via healyoursubconscious.com. Things might just fall in place for you. #VedicAstrology #psychologist

Who are the other consorts of Bhagwan Vishnu? #SanatanDharma
Bhagwan Vishnu is said to have eight consorts in all; they represent the 8 channels through which his various energies or faculties can display their beneficial activities. Some texts differ from each other in the Goddesses' names. The meanings of names speak for themselves.
Sadhguru calls Patanjali father of modern yoga. Then is Sadhguru’s teaching of yoga older than the Yoga in the Six Darsana? Is his yoga Astika or Nastika? #yoga
Sadhguru is absolutely correct.
The 6 schools Shad-darshana are all “nominally” Vedic, i.e., they’re all āstika as long as they don't deny the authority of the Vedas in metaphysical matters. So it is the non-denial that makes them “orthodox” rather than any direct link. #yoga
Many of the basic ideas of all the 6 Schools have their seeds in the Vedas - but have an independent growth, flowering and fruition structure. #yoga
The Sanskrit word swa means 'one's own' and adhisthana means 'dwelling place or residence'. Therefore, swadhisthana means 'one's own abode'. #yoga #kundalini
Although mooladhara occupies a very important place in the scheme of the chakras, swadhisthana, which is located very near to mooladhara, is also involved in and responsible for the awakening of kundalini shakti in mooladhara. #yoga #kundalini
In fact, it is said that previously the seat of kundalini was in swadhisthana, but there was a fall and subsequently mahakundalini came to rest in mooladhara. #yoga #kundalini
Is the truth so complicated that it needs several volumes of books such as Vedas, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, etc. to explain it? #Spirituality
There are many subjects and many truths and many teachers and many students of various academic and intellectual dispositions. And there are also many ways of seeing the same truth. #Spirituality
There are texts for child-like aspirants and there are texts for PhD’s in spiritual training. Not everyone needs to read every text - you read whatever suits your personal disposition, stage of development and aptitude. #Spirituality
Since truly enlightened people only experience things for what they are, do they still have "mental" interests, not just things that they like to do, as in actions, but interests, as in certain topics being more alluring to their minds? #enlightenment
Once one is enlightened, they are no longer a person.
They are still human. That is, they have a human body & a human mind. And that body does human things and that mind thinks human thoughts and may be interested from time to time in human interests. But the person is gone.
So, what does it mean to no longer be a person?
Let's take a look at where the word, “person” comes from. It originates from the Latin word, “persona” which originated from the Greek word, “prosopon.”
There are said to be several stages of enlightenment.
This maybe confusing for some advaitins, who like to talk in terms of oneness, but the stages all take place beyond the mind in a state of non-duality, so the oneness is never lost. #enlightenment #Spirituality
They are simply deeper dissolutions into the Whole.
Different teachings, traditions and systems that have arisen from different mystics use different names for these stages. #enlightenment #Spirituality
