End of the world

Is the FINAL END of WORLD Really APPROACHING or it’s a HYPE?

Well this is the hottest topic of modern times. So many predictions from the courtyard of every culture have indeed kept this question alive. Which question?

Whether the world will end or not?

In fact there is a genuine basis to this question and we just cannot neglect or ignore this basis.

In the recent years there have been many such catastrophes, which are really giving a very clear Warning sign of something BIG and worse in the future too.

We all have been a witness of the catastrophe which has taken place in Japan in March 2011 and understand how deadly it was; right from Tsunami to nuclear disaster all of them simultaneously just shattered one of the world’s most powerful economies and ripples of that are still being felt by the whole world.

On 25th may 2011, 122 people were killed in the tornado that battered Joplin, Missouri, making it the deadliest single U.S. tornado since the National Weather Service began modern record-keeping more than 60 years ago.

Some may argue that tornadoes and cyclones are a usual phenomenon in US but their intensities and frequencies are certainly not COMMON. There have been a cumulative rise in the strength of these monsters and there are enough statistics to prove this.

On 25th May 2011, itself a huge volcanic ash cloud that has hit the UK. All UK airports - including Gatwick and Heathrow - have been closed causing disruption for around 300,000 UK passengers.

The April 2011 eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano, in south-east Iceland, caused the worst disruption to international air travel since 9/11. Flights across Europe were cancelled for six-days stranding tens of thousands of people and was estimated to have cost airlines £130m a day.

We all are experiencing the extreme wrath of nature in recent times. Lets us take a quick review of the events to refresh our memories and to understand the intensions of the nature.

Starting from the, BHUJ earthquake on 26th January 2001 in India (this was special as earthquakes are quite rare in geographically well placed country like India),

Then came the big one:

WTC terrorist attack, 11th September 2001 which changed the face of terrorism in the world.

This eventually initiated the destruction in Afghanistan (WAR OF AFGANISTAN) on 7th October 2001(which is continuing till present).

All this and many other moderate events Marked the deadly year of 2001.

After witnessing a WILD face of terrorism, Afghanistan War and Bhuj quake,world was not even ready and was just trying to stand up on its legs as then only, suddenly came a hard reality of destruction of Another nation called IRAQ in 2002(Till present)) in front of everyone.

Initial events started from 29th Jan 2002 and war of Iraq started on 20th march 2003.

Have a look at this…


Although the destruction of the IRAQ and AFGANISTAN was quite visible in the year 2003-2004 but apart from that year 2004 was proving out to be a good year, but ..........nature was again thinking otherwise.

26th December 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami came with a HUGE bang.

The whole world was taken by the surprise by this POWER of the nature, Sea bed of more than 1600 kilometers was uplifted, revolution time of an earth was effected and sea coast of 7 countries faced the 10-50 meter walls of water.

This was a new thing for everyone out in the world; anyways humans have no other option but to adjust.

2005 began with a nightmare for Mumbai city. When on 26th July 2005 the day when the heaviest rainfall in 100 years was recorded in the city of Mumbai. It shook Mumbai city and whole of India (Mumbai being the financial city of India) from its roots and left it to face helplessness. People were simply amazed with the level of this event, it seemed like whole of an ocean was pouring on the city. This was simply new to India in the last 100 years.

And then how can we forget

The biggest earthquake in Kashmir region since 1900 on 8th Oct 2005 ,Which again left thousands dead and millions homeless!

2006 was no less.This year Russia registered the highest number of unfavorable and dangerous natural phenomena in the history of meteorological observation.Roman Vilfand, director of Russia's hydrometeorology centre, said between January and November of 2006, 371 dangerous natural phenomena - including extreme cold, heat waves, strong winds and driving rains - were registered throughout Russia.

Have a look at this.


Also.

Natural calamities caused 3,155 human deaths in China in 2006, the highest figure since 1998, according to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Have a look at this.


2007 came with tons of worries for Greece as on June 28 – In the aftermath of Greece's worst heat wave in a century, at least 11 people are reported dead from heatstroke, approximately 200 wildfires break out nationwide, and the country's electricity grid nearly collapses due to record breaking demand.

The next turn was of Peru where an August 15, 2007 – An 8.0 earthquake rocked Peru, killing 512 people, injuring more than 1,500, and causing tsunami warnings in the Pacific Ocean.

And then in the last, the ball was in the Bangladesh’s court, November 16 – Approximately 10,000 people were believed to have died after Cyclone Sidr chose Bangladesh as its destination.

Still 2007 went a little smooth...

But this smoothness was neutralized by 2 major events which shook the world in the very beginning of 2008.

4th may 2008 - Nargis cyclone in Myanmar 12th may 2008- 7.9 M Quake in china both of the above incidents again left lacs of people dead and homeless.

Apart from this, 2008 was named as the year of floods in India (there were never these kinds of large scale and intensity floods in India before). (Right from Maharashtra to Orissa and from Bihar to Tamil Nadu…there was no mercy shown by the nature).

Even England and China were also not spared by floods in 2008.

Moving ahead in 2009

February 7, 2009 – The deadliest bushfires in Australian history begin; they kill 173, injure 500 more, and leave 7,500 homeless. The fires come after Melbourne records the highest-ever temperature (46.4°C, 115°F) of any capital city in Australia.

April 6, 2009 – A 6.3 magnitude earthquake strikes near L'Aquila, Italy, killing nearly 300 and injuring more than 1,500

August 7, 2009 – Typhoon Morakot hits Taiwan, killing 500 and stranding more than 1,000 via the worst flooding on the island in half a century.

September 26, 2009– Typhoon Ketsana begins to cause record amounts of rainfall in Manila, Philippines, leading to the declaration of a "state of calamity" in 25provinces

September 30, 2009– A 7.6-magnitude earthquake strikes just off the coast of Sumatra, killing around 1,000 in Indonesia.

2010 started with big quake which shook whole of china, January 12 – A 7.0-magnitude earthquake occurred in Haiti, devastating the nation's capital, Port-au-Prince. With a confirmed death toll over 230,000 it is one of the deadliest on record.

Nature’s next target in this year was Chile (South America), February 27 – An 8.8-magnitude earthquake occurred, triggering a tsunami over the Pacific and killing 497. The earthquake was one of the largest in recorded history.

For china it was a nightmare year as on April 13 again a 6.9-magnitude earthquake occurred in Qinghai, China, killing at least 2,000 and injuring more than 10,000.

After earthquake it was the turn of VOLCANO as on April 14 – Volcanic ash from one of several eruptions beneath Eyjafjallajökull, an ice cap in Iceland, begins to disrupt air traffic across northern and western Europe.

Asian countries were also not forgiven as on July 29, 2010 – Heavy monsoon rains begin to cause widespread flooding (pictured) in the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province of Pakistan. Over 1,600 are killed, and more than one million are displaced by the floods.

This was not all as on October 25, 2010 – An earthquake and consequent tsunami off the coast of Sumatra, Indonesia, killed over 400 people and left hundreds missing. October 26–ongoing – Repeated eruptions of Mount Merapi in Central Java, Indonesia, had killed at least 240 people and forced hundreds of thousands of residents to evacuate.

Above events are just the big ones but we all know that there are 1000’s of other events including terrorist activities, earthquakes, tornadoes, man made disaster etc.

As we can notice nature is really preparing and showing indications for other big and unimaginable events.

Indeed change is not only subjected to nature but to mankind too.

On 25 January 2011, widespread protests began against Mubarak's regime. These took the form of an intensive campaign of civil resistance supported by a very large number of people and mainly consisting of continuous mass demonstrations. By 29 January it was becoming clear that Mubarak's regime had lost control when a curfew order was ignored.

After this we all know that what happened in Egypt was just the beginning, protests spread like a wild fire in all the Arab nations like Libya, Yemen, Jordan, Bahrain, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia etc.

So it’s quite clear that things are not the same, they are actually changing and changing very fast, where are we all heading towards ?, we don’t know but one thing is for sure. The end is not appearing to be the happy one.

The Anna revolution, is also a part of this cleansing process which is going everywhere in the world and let me also state a fact that Satyug is about to begin ,  26th July 2014, when Sun, Moon and Jupiter will simultaneously enter pushya nakshatra and from the next day 27th July, new cylce of moon will start and thereafter LORD KALKI will appear, taking the whole command of the world in his hand, all the calculation which says that kalyug has still lakhs of years left are flaud.

Just showing you the mirror and I know that somewhere, we all have this thing in our mind.

So in the end, I leave it to your judgment and wisdom that whether the end is approaching or the new beginning is there at the next corner.

How Does Astrology Affects Your Life?

After a long Reading over Astrology coming with this two questions clearer and providing knowledge from the basics in own words. Have a Look @ it. !

 
How does Astrology work?
Astrology is a glorious and beautiful harmonization of science and spirit. By using the Earth's orbit around the Sun as a fixed reference point and through precise astronomical plotting of planetary movements, people can understand, with remarkable accuracy, the highest spiritual meanings and most practical physical potentials that synchronize with celestial events. The 'map' against which one superimposes this extremely precise scientific data is the birth or natal chart. The birth chart, which everyone has, is essentially a snapshot of the heavens at the moment of birth. The locations and aspects of the Sun, Moon, and planets mysteriously reveal the nature and purpose of one's life. By comparison of the birth chart with impending planetary movements, one can, either by themselves or with the assistance of a gifted Astrologer, peer into their future. The ramifications of a person having this type of information goes beyond measure; this is power of the most unique and extraordinary kind, and thus, the reason why it has been cloaked and coveted for so long.

How can I benefit from Astrology?

The value of Astrology transcends mundane concerns and is a priceless treasure for all mankind to share. Astrology can reveal one's life purpose, one's ascension path, and provide tremendous clarity on all matters of love, family, health, career, finance, education, experience, and of course, spirit. It offers solutions to life's most difficult, seemingly hopeless challenges as well as revealing pathways to manifesting abundance and success at spectacular levels. It empowers individuals by helping them understand their inherent strengths and potentials that they may embrace and develop them with vigor. Unlike anything else, it imbues clarity, purpose, hope, and optimism for the spiritual seekers of the world that their lives become illuminated and that they may become a vibrant, unique, yet integral part of the human family. There is nothing hidden under the heavens and nothing that one can't understand through the luminous lens of Astrology.

Astrology A Scientific Approach

The main ideas of sharing this article is to create awareness and interest in the people at large extent that Astrology is a divine Science, irrespective of Religion or Caste.

Introduction

Before going to start into the details of Astrology, I just start with some interesting, logical and divine aspect of Astrology.

Astrology and Fate(Karma)

Astrology is very much correlated to our karma.The planets are not the cause of events but only indicate the events in life.
Our lives are ruled by karma comprising of our thoughts,words and deeds.Then the karma is translated into fate or destiny, which is again reflected in our horoscopes.
Thus Astrology and Purushartha (fate and freewill) are interlinked and both are reciprocal.

Influence by Planets

As already said planets are not the cause of events and are not the controller of one's fate, but are material entities (objects) and so these can influence only material constituents of man i.e., the Physical Body and Mind. And the Soul of Man can never be influenced by planets as Soul is part of God, not a material constituents so by strong will power, honesty, and sincere efforts one can change the curse of one's destiny and lead a happy life.

Some Assertions And Leading Conclusions About Astrology

a) Ass: Not scientific.
   Con:Astrology is a divine or spritiual science dealing with huaman avocations or behaviour,which cannot be tested or demonstrated in a laboratory like a physical science.But is a stuty of influence of planets and stars on mankind based on foreknowledge of our seers rather than intelligence(judgement).

b)Ass: Makes a man fatalistic(bleak).
   Con:Just as a doctor does not make a person ill, similarly an astrologer does mot make a person fatalistic.The aim of Astrology is to reform human behaviour and make a man good. And if  realizes one's importance of work ( here karma), will not blame fate or Astrologer.

c)Ass:No use in knowing future in advance.
  Con:If one knows his or her favourable period through astrology, the one can utilize that period more effectively.On the other hand if there is a bad period, one can take precautions to prevent adverse influences.

d)Ass:Predictions do not prove true.
   Con:There is a tendency found in people as to judge astrologer on its failure rather on its success.One    should understand that the element of error (mistake) is basic to all diciplines of human knowledge.If one is a   doctor, engineer, scientist or politician , his/her errors are ignored.But in case of an astrologer, his wrong predictions attract much publicity and fanfare.
If a particular astrologer does not predict  accurately , one can go to another, just as one goes to a doctor who cures the disease.
         As Benjamin Franklin said -"Condemnation without investigation is the highest Ignorance"

e)Ass:In case of many death at a place at one time ( such as when the atom bomb fell on Hiroshima lakhs of people died in a moment, similarly on account of cyclone, floods, accidents several hundred people die every year ),but the Horoscopes of all people do not indicate the same death.
  Con:Here one should understand that in such cases instead of individual horoscope, the horoscope of the country or the ruler of the country should be studied in place of individual horoscopes.

Rise And Fall Of Astrology

 Astrology was held in high esteem and rose to the apex during Gupta period (300 AD) in Indian history.
 The  main reason for its decline ws the loss of independence of India. Hindu religion and astrology are interlinked. The invaders destroyed the observatories,libraries and ancient manuscripts written on palm leaf (bhojapatra).So there was no progress of research in Astronomy and astrology.

Secondly due to the impact of western thought, materialism and physical sciences were given more importance than spiritualism. So astrology as a spritual science was declined and considered unscientific.

Astrology  is the eye of Veda.Vedanta ( the essence of Vedas ) talks of only Moksha.But it also tells us about materialistic world.

My own experience shows that
"Astrology provides the forecasts to step up good fate and to check bad, if any, by performing ritual etc."
