practice what you preach first.

But fortunately for me I don't need a good or bad jyotish-ee to hep me understand myself. I have Nabby, Buck in the Dome, Dr. D aka Freemacncheesy, and Stevie who has apparently become Willy Tex's understudy to tell me all about myself. You're good people Michael. No worries. I'll do my share to bring you along. First we just tighten up on our attributions. In other words, when you make a statement, take a moment to see it corresponds to reality or is just some kind of emotional release. We'll get there good buddy. Maybe you rub elbows with different TM'ers than I did and than I do, but by FAR the vast majority of TM'ers I ever knew who were into jyotish were into it for two reasons - finding out what kind of good stuff was gone happen, and freaking out when they were told something bad was gonna happen and then scrambling around to buy whatever kind of nostrum was recommended to negate the bad karma. I did it too when I had my chart done, back in 2001. Used all the mantras Brent gave me and bought a big ass moonstone since I hadn't the cash for the size pearl I was supposed to get. Got it wrapped in silver and wore it night and day. Since I didn't die I suppose I could attribute that fact to the "remedial measures" I took. ________________________________ From: feste37 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, July 4, 2014 10:49 AM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Wedding Invitation from Seville, Spain I don't see it as a matter of belief at all. It's more a question of the accuracy with which the chart is interpreted. There are of course bad astrologers as well as good ones. I have found astrology most useful as a tool for self-understanding. Predictions for the future I have found to be iffy at best. And like you I am rather skeptical about "preventive measures." ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : Had one done once by Brent Becvar, the jyotish guy for the Chopra Center. Some of the info seemed credible, if you are willing to believe in sade sati which is what I was supposedly in at the time. It was sort of fitting event to the prevailing theory. Some of the other stuff was way off. I have heard many good things about Chakrapani, except for the few people I have spoken with who said he didn't do much for them. I find astrology is wonderful - for those who believe. My destiny, if I have one doesn't have shit to do with the alignment of the planets. So I wouldn't care what Chakrapani had to say about anything. The only thing jyotish had to offer that I was interested in when I was still somewhat of a foolish believer was the idea of preventive measures to prevent or negate one's karma. All of which are bullshit and don't work. ________________________________ From: feste37 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, July 4, 2014 10:06 AM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Wedding Invitation from Seville, Spain MJ, I'm wondering if you have ever had your jyotish chart done by a competent astrologer. If not, you might be surprised at the results. I had mine done many years ago by Chakrapani, who is a noted LA astrologer. It was astonishing how well he had me pegged. It was very illuminating. I have had similar positive results from Western astrologers too. The cosmos stamps its unique signature on you at birth, I have no doubt about it. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <mjackson74@...> wrote : There IS no science to jyotish, nor any other aspect of TM - at best it is pseudo-science, or as we common folk in the South like to call it, made up bullshit. ________________________________ From: "Share Long sharelong60@...

Or that solar flares affect communication devices? More importantly, are you saying that there are phenomenon that we're simply not yet able to measure? For a guy who's into science, you surprise me when you don't see the scientific aspects of jyotish.

Ordinarily, I wouldn't accept an invitation like this from a far away location. But it just so happens that my jyotish chart indicates that I'll be traveling this year due to the exalted Jupiter in conjunction with the lord of the 12th house in Cancer, the first house. Also, the sign of Cancer represents the second house of marriage for my cousin's daughter, who is represented by the 12th house in my own chart. These indicators look auspicious for everyone involved since the benefic Jupiter is exalted while in transit on the same sign for the entire year. So, I should take advantage of this karmic event to get out of San Francisco and visit a foreign country. While over there, I might as well take a side trip to Madrid and a little town called Antequera, which just so happens to be the namesake of the town where I grew up in the Philippines. It should be a good trip since I'm expecting to travel with my cousin and her husband. And, NO. I don't speak fluent Spanish. I've taken the language course while in high school. But I'll bring my Spanish dictionary just in case. Believe it or not, I made a previous trip to France, Switzerland, and Italy without knowing how to speak their languages. If all of the planets align properly, I should be in Seville, Spain on September 27, 2014 to attend the wedding.
