Astrology - Naadi Jyotishya and Lucky Stones

I used to think God is there but will he appear .. Destiny is defined but is it understood... nature is planned but is it predictable....man can get nothing by being so demanding from his fellow beings or from himself but will he ever give up.....

I always thought no....might be ... might be yes ... it all depends on nothing ...

But sometimes even the most intelligent were proved wrong...
Yes I was proved wrong many a times and this time too....

I wa sitting on the terrace of my pent house in the night sipping an apple juice and looking at the skies thinkiing about the day when I went to the temple trip in south India , I never knoew then that it would change me completely..from an atheist to theist.

I still remember those days...

Myself, Pradeep, Madhavan hired a car (tata indica) from bangalore and drove straight to Tanjavur - we saw the great temple of tanjavur- i made up my mind to come there next time too with my family...its not the beauty but the spriritual aspect that captures me when ever i visit a temple... but this time for the first time in my life , the architectural aspect caught my imagination.. I could not describe what passed beneath my mind when i saw those beautiful landscaped sanctoriums..and the huge nandi...it was a refresher for the temples which i will be seeing further...

We then went to the famous Chidambaram Natarajar temple. The priests did not look like Iyers but looked more like namboodiris. They seemed to be commercializing the pujas eventhough i am not sure of their intentions , i really did not feel good when they were trying to sell us coupons telling that they would do some poojas and i was not really impressed by the way people get a closer look of the god ( u know wat one of us bribed them to have a closer look at the god)..I was a bit disturbed but still the temple was alluring.We also went to Tiruchy Ranganathar temple in this journey.

We then went to the Vaitheeswaran temple which is also famouse for naadi jyoshyam. We went and saw a naadi astrolger as suggested by the relative of madhavan. He asked for our finger prints and our date of births and after a cool 20 minutes took us to the room to tell our future..

i was not really waiting with bated breath but with a little apprehensions on wat would he tell... he demanded a whopping 1800 Rs for telling the different kandams...i paid without a second thought because i was determined to know if there is something really wrong with my birthchart..then he started to tell the following points

He said My sister would get married when i will be 27 after a bit of hiccups which of course happened with some hiccups...
He said I will get married when i am 29.. i dont know if i will ever since i ma never interested in marriage...
He then said i will have my first child when i will be 32 .. now marriage itself is a doubt then where is the child..
He again said my second child will be when i am 35 .. .oh my god please leave me...

He said i will reach new heights in my carrier in the future.. i know i am in a shit pond as far as my carrier is concerned... u know wat i never liked S/W engr profession...

He said if i put my hard work i might end up doing my higher studies also .. believe me sparrows came out of my ears when i heard this...

He then said i will go abroad first for a smaller trip and then on a longer trip might end up for years... believe me i never had a liking for any onsite except for money and i never had a chance too and my situation was like i never will have..

He the said i will end up inventing something and that i will get prizes and recognition and my face would come up on TVs and i would end up meeting very influential people and also jail and i shud not trust all my friends as one of them will end me up in jail.. i will start my own companies...i was sleeping and started to believe he is a liar...

Now for the funniest part ... he was telling about my previous janmam... u know wat i always believed i did some paapam in my previous janmam.. and yes this was believable .. a rather true story told in a filmy fashion..

Hew told me i was born of a noble birth but gave up my character and started raping many girls and usurped many people's fortunes and looted many people's houses and was brutal and ditched my wife and parents and took up the wrong cause and harmed many people who have put shaapam on me and so if any one puts a bad eye on me it will immedietely turn out to be a show stopper for me... i died becaquse of a dangerous disease and no one was there with me during my death but i managed to build a temple for Lord Shiva and because of that only something good will happen to me...i will never stay in a single place because of this shaapam (curse)...My marriage will nearly end up in rocks if i will not do any dosha pariharams.. i will never carry luck and every single ruppee earned will be because of my own work and not through luck or any one's help...

I was gasping for breath and tired of seeing and hearing the maayabazaar stories....

You know wat,, my sister's marriage happened when i was 27 with some hiccups..and i came for a short trip followed by a longer trip i dont know if it would go on for years and you know wat i never stayed at a single place if u take my history(17 houses shifted so far and 5 cities/towns shifted so far and still counting) and you know wat till date i never won a rupee in lottery or luck based scenarios..

now i dont know if i have to believe him or not....

It looked funny for me but believe me i started to believe astrology is true science and it has dwelved deeper into the concept of parallel chakras much earlier than we thought and understood such concepts...Based on these only naadi astrology is told..

my destiny is pre written.. i can lift my hands and fall but my destiny will pick me up...

I believe i am believing it now....

Similalry there was a lucky stone recommendation from one astrologer and he guaranteed me i will leave india by April month... I never wanted to be outside india and i never asked for such chances and infact i was saying no to such chances when all of a sudden i was asked to leave for australia from india at the end of april... i had to believe it...

You know wat i have a friend .. we came from a similar middle class back ground..studied in the same school, we did not know each other much then....we joined the same college, same department, same first job,same place of residence when we shifted our jobs and which we did at same time... we shifted jobs almost the second time also on the same time and he came onsite for an assignment and near his company was my company where I too was posted onsite after sometime....call it coincidence or planned ..believe me not even a single action was planned to be done together...thats the beauty of parallel chakras.. everything happens within one month gap between him and me except for onsite expeience which he had a experienced more than me and has a better job in hand and has taken much better decisions than me... Call it stars but sometimes life just cannot coincide more often which is more bizarre rather....

We are nearing 2008 end

I blink and miss the year ... yes it is already nearing the end of the year. Was a lovely and memorable one ... really met cool guys and exchanged great thoughts and was extremely busy for the first time in my life... yes believe me...

As with every year this year was full of highs and lows....

Year started with a bang , I finally managed to buy a small piece of land (1200 sq feet) at chennai. I however could not manage to get a transfer to chennai..

I managed to get into a banking domain project but could not get into development project..

I finally managed to get an Onsite but could not get it to the western world....

I finally managed to convince my father for a retirement but could not convince my PM to send me to chennai...

My sister got married but i could not even talk to a girl so i dont know wen i will get married...

Registered with the IMS but could not write the CAT/GMAT exams...

Many things however happened for the first time in my life in this year like ....

Cooking and eating the same ... ofcourse the worst nightmare i had...
Exploring some fantacies which i could have only imagined at India...
Buying a property, getting a chance to interact with foreigners, onsite, direct client interaction etc amidst the otherwise dull daily routines which i used to have until last year or so did i feel the last year...

Hope the coming year will be full of more surprises and shud i say more happiness as i dont want to believe in surprises as they can deceit you...

These and many other things happened like..

Yes I cleared SCWCD exam also but I could not get it reimbursed because of some stupid policy....

Watched a James Bond movie for the first time in theater and you know what i did not like the hero or the heroine....

Brought and worn the Blazers/Ties etc but looked like a conductor in the mirror..

Became more superstitious and god believing but still the path is less travelled...

and many more things have happened this year ...

hope the next year will be more blossoming than it was....
