WHY ASTROLOGERS GO WRONG?

DEAR FRIENDS! I FOUND AN APT ANSWER TO THE OFT REPEATED QUESTION WHY ASTROLOGY OR PREDICTIONS OF ASTROLOGERS GO WRONG. I ACKNOWLEDGE
THE FOLLOWING WORDS OF SHIELA DAS CULLED OUT FROM AMMMAS.COM
THIS SITE IS VERY GOOD. FOR ONE QUESTION MANY ASTROLOGERS ANSWER. SHIELA DAS SEEMS TO BE A SCHOLAR OF SANSKRIT AND VEDAS AND VEDIC ASTROLOGY. I ADMIRE HER KNOWLEDGE.MY SALUTATIONS TO HER.I RECOMMEND THIS SITE TO VIEWERS OF MY BLOG.


Response from: Sheila Das, Council Member on Ammas.comSource: This information comes from my own knowledge. Ur queries r specific:
This answer s intended to cover 2 issues :
1.“All the astrologers have been wrong in my case.. everything .”
A.The back ground :
Astology predictions r akin to results of a pooja.
If poojas /mantras are done “as prescribed, then there is nothing inthis world that can that cannot be attained ( vidhi-vath mantraaha patitha bhavanti sarva-arta-sadake loke: prasna marga: 1;1;27) ”
Poojas / mantras are from the Karma Kandha of the Vedas. Hora sastra ( Astrology ) is also from the Vedas . It is said to be the eyes (chaksushu) of the Vedas... a branch of the vedas that has been dealt by great Rishis like Parasara, Brugu, Vasishta etc.In fact Parasara Hora is written by Parasara maharshi , father of Vyasa Maharshi who divided the Vedas into four, wrote the Vyasa Ramayana, mahabhabarata, Bhagvad Purana and many others too . A these are intimately connected . Astolgy is not something to be fooled with . It is something like a Pooja. . . . .
Bhavan in the Gita has said :
9:26: “If it is with great devotion and a clean mind that (even ) a leaf, a flower, a fruit, or water , is offered, I receive that devotee’s offerings with much happiness”
This is a very conditional clause. For Bhagvan to even receive what is offered there has to be a clean mind and great devotion .
The Bhagvad Gita is said to be the milk of the Upanishad cow . Upanishad is from the Jnaana Khanda of the Vedas . So everything is interconnected.
B. For astrologers to be able to be able to analyse and say correctly what is in a chart there has to be a two sided effort:
a)One of course is the astrologer himself who has to be 1) well learnt 2) good at heart 3) honest 4) humble 5)must be true beliver in God etc. . etc. . ( Prasna marga: 1: 1: 15) and he must be someone who practices astrology as prescribed (Prasna marga: 1: 1: 27)
b).The other is what comes from the person who seeks to know:
i. There are a lot of way s prescribed for asking an astrological question . . .the time, the date , proper Dhakshina, "bhakti-poorvakam..... ",. .. If these are not followed it is not possible to get the correct prediction. Not only that , it will be making fun of astrology and also it will be “adharma” (NA prushtaha kasychit brooya-anyaeyana. . . " Prasna Marga 2: 2: 4)
ii. "An astologer should never tell a prediction if the person who asks does not do it as prescribed....never say a prediction if the person is asking TO TEST THE KNOWLEDGE of the astrologer. . or CHALLENGING . .. the reason is ,that in such circumstances the astrologer will not be able to get the correct prediciton. . ." “ also, he will appear like a fool before the world ("Jalavath-lokam-acharyeth)”
iii. So if some one feels “ I ll first ask this astrologer a few questions and test whether he knows things. . and then I will ask him what i want to know ". . I> forget it . . He wont get the correct answer. It will only mean that this person doesn’t deserve this Astologer’s service.
iv. All this is about the “Honest Astrologer” .As in every field, there would be the “pseudo”
v. Also there is the principle "Satyam vada, priyam vada" . . .Means: only speak the truth, speak what only is good to hear. . . One cannot say everything that one sees in a chart. . in fact one has to highlight the good things as much as possible… for the sake of the person asking, unless the questions are very specific and one cannot side track.
Therefore , please try to recollect whether u had followed all these rules when approaching the astrologer.
So lots of reason why what they said went wrong .
