H.C

Means Hanuman Chalisa. While doing H.C one has to avoid non veg. food, drinks. He has to maintain the very good conduct.

Looking at the person's horoscope with correct birth time and correct birth place is one option. Secondly, sometimes if a person has a spirit has with him/her, there is always a chance that person might get to know at some point what spirit it is with him/her.

When I said, kind of ghost, means we need to look at if it is related to our ancestors or might be even related to one from previous body one is in, then devata aradhana wont help much.

Sir, Since I do not know any method to know this, please through some light.

In the previous body I was in, i had a horoscope of sagi lagna with Rahu in 2nd house and 2nd lord saturn along with Gulika in 12th. Though I belonged to Jupiterian person in previous body, due to Rahu being in 2nd house,

Please explain. Regards

Aseem,

One thing I didn't understand: did he tell you about your past and your future just like that or with the help of the cards that you had given him? If a person can predict the future accurately, it just shows that everything is predestined.

[Basab]

Sita,

What is the meaning of this picture, in context of the discussion that we are having here?

[sita]

Bassu...he is a magician....

[Basab]

Thanks for telling me about the tantrik. Yes, I agree with you completely that making accurate predictions is very difficult and only a rare few can make it happen. I also agree that high yogic powers are attainable, but then, most people are not interested in them as attaining worldly success has more priority for them.

[sita]

Yeahh bassu totally agree with u...and where r the real tantriks today? ....even many sadhu-mahatmas have become high-tech today....during my Haridwar trip I saw a sadhu playing games on his lap-top ......cool sadhu

[Basab]

Sita,

Sadhu playing games on laptop?! I hope you are not joking. Why didn't you ask him to join lova and discuss spirituality with us?

Bassu I m serious....I swear ...such scenes have become common...if I tell u the complete details you'll burst into laughter.

[Basab]

Yeah, please share the complete details. I would love to hear of it. I am in a sad mood now, so some funny stuff, I don't mind one bit.

Aseem ji, you are right. Not everyone is discharging duties/ responsibilities to satisfy their desires or to get fructified in return.

One can focus on either life with responsibilities or life without any attachment. The confused ones end up with justifying themselves under the guise of spirituality.

So I do believe for materialictic people, Karma Yoga is the best way to attain moksha.

How do you say that Aseem-ji? First of all, what is your understanding of what is your karma that you have to discharge as part of this Karma Yoga? Is it going to office at 8 am and returning at 5 PM, making sure not a minute of your time is wasted at workplace? Is it being a good son to your parents, and a good husband to your wife, and a good parent to your children? What happens if there is a conflict of interest between these roles as a son/husband/father? What is the meaning of "good" in this context? Is it merely living a life of not hurting others, not telling lies, respecting elders, not eating meat etc.?

My assessment is that most people do not even have a good understanding of what is Karma - let alone be a Karma Yogi, and then on to believing that Karma Yoga is best for materialistic people.

[Abhijit Muhurta !!!]

I am the perfect example of a person who is living with the ghosts or spirits for the last 20 plus years. I have along with me day in and day out, 10 plus spirits in and around me plus shiva booth ganas, booth ganas of divine mother along with lord shiva and divine mother.

Just kidding.....

[sita]

during my Haridwar trip I saw a sadhu playing games on his lap-top ......cool sadhu

Wow a sadhu playing games on his lap-top!!! You could not spot a real sadu meditating?

No....it was a crowded place.... ...next time I'll try

[Sudarshang]

Well Karma Yogi is discharging all duties without having any attachment to the fruits thereof. If I am working as a servant to a CEO, then my duty becomes to ensure that my works keep him happy.

So far so good!

If I am married, then my duty is to ensure that my spouse is happy and If I have a daughter or a son, then my duty is to ensure that he grows to be a responsible citizen. If I am earning money due to business doing good, then it is my duty to give back as much as I can to remove hunger, provide money for education or others without expecting anything in return. If I setup an organization, then it is my duty to ensure that the setup really furthers the cause of the development of the society and so on. This is Karma to me i.e. living for others, without expecting anything in return and leaving the fruits to Almighty!!!

How do you know this is the Karma that keeps Him happy? Some do not even marry! Can't they be Karma Yogis? As far as I know, you have stated actions that will result in "punya" (positive karmic points) but that alone will not lead to Moksha - in fact having substantial positve karma could result in taking birth again as a "fortunate" person.

Now, as far as I know, Karma is following one's Varna-Ashrama Dharma. That means, if you are born in one of the three top varnas - Kshatriya, Brahman, or Vaishya, performing Nityakarma (Sandhyavandan) and Naimittika Karma (Pitru Karma on Amavasya, and other "occassional" karmas) etc. is the true meaning of a Karma Yogi. Now remember one thing, you dont get rewarded for doing your duty - therefore performance of these karmas does not accrue in positive or negative karmic points - therefore they are actions that can be performed without accruing Karma - therefore the Karma Yogi does not increase his existing Karmic Points, and when he is happy/unhappy he spends the balance of his prarabdha karma, paving the way for his Moksha. (i.e Zero Karmic Balance). In addition, this is the Karma that makes him happy - because he is the author of the Shastras which state that we must perform our Nitya and Naimittika Karma.

Therefore, in my opinion, Karma that you have stated would lead to gain of Punya resulting in rebirth and not in Moksha.

[Basab]

Yes, you are right, Aseem: here's a couple of sayings, which people, who looks for easy success should keep in mind, always: 'there is no short-cut to success'; 'there is no substitute for hard work'.

Thanks for telling me about the tantrik. Yes, I agree with you completely that making accurate predictions is very difficult and only a rare few can make it happen. I also agree that high yogic powers are attainable, but then, most people are not interested in them as attaining worldly success has more priority for them.

Wordly success is good but everybody is interested in shortcut methods!!!!. Who really wants to toil like a farmer?

[Basab]

One can focus on either life with responsibilities or life without any attachment. The confused ones end up with justifying themselves under the guise of spirituality.

This is very true.

[Basab]

Very true, Aseem.

After my hectic schedule since the past few weeks, I do feel and slowly coming to the belief that God-realisation and materialistic life cannot go hand in hand. Only focussing one at a time, can one perfectly pursue either one of them. So I do believe for materialictic people, Karma Yoga is the best way to attain moksha. May God give me more responsibilities to discharge my duties without any attachment!!!! Work is Life!!!

[Basab]

Yesterday was very bad for me, Aseem. I felt like leaving this material world and becoming a saint. I think the eclipse had its effect on me very strongly.
