Astrology -an inseparable part of the Indian lives. Here people, in general, more than themselves believe in their stars. Here astrologists, palmists and all other of the same creed, thrive as much as do the doctors. Rather at times people rather than consulting a doctor for some illness, prefer rather to consult an astrologist.
People believe in the powers of the celestial bodies. And that everything is governed by them. In fact, in Hindu mythology there are citations that these planets have proved their strength over gods even. Even the mightiest of all gods, Shiva, couldn’t ward off the harsh period of the planet ‘Saturn’.
Possibly this all may be true. But has anyone ever heard that planets ever changed their course that often and then how many times? The earth is inhabited by some six and a half billion of the human race itself and then there are millions of others too inhabiting earth from fiercest and wildest of the animals to invisible to naked eyes micro organisms. And what a havoc it would have been if the planets had to move as in accordance with everyone. Who knows. Or did they ever start revolving in some other direction? Don’t know about the rest but I never observed anything like that. But we have always heard people saying-
“Din kharab chal rahe hain”, even in the finest of weather.
“Grah kamzor hai”, even though we know that all the planets have their definite mass and we know that nothing is going to happen to happen to them even in some hundreds of years.
“Grah-Dasha kharab chal rahi hai”, as if it was not for some planet but some rickety bus which ruled Delhi in not very distant past.
“Grah-Dasha badal sakti hai”, of which we know that they had been in nearly the same orbit ever since they got burst out of the Sun.
And tha Saga continues. But the question is still there as firm as ever. Do planets in actual govern us and our lives. To which I would say ‘yes they do’.
An old and wise sage once equated energy and mass in just one seemingly simple equation. Einstein Baba gave E=m.c-squared. Following that sage’s words we know that energy varies directly with mass. And thus we could say that the planets like Jupiter and Saturn which are manifolds bigger in size and heavier in weight than mother earth, possess a magnanimous amount of energy and with this amount of energy they do exert some pull or force (as given by another wise sage of the modern sciences that we study, Newton in his theories of gravitation) pertaining to their mass. And thus neither the earth and nor any of the earthlings remain unaffected of it. Thus the reasoning for the stars and planets affecting our lives. But we know and are sure of the unity and synchrony of each of the heavenly bodies. Then how could they affect the lives of each of us so uniquely and so distinctly from each other’s. To this there arise two possibilities- one that celestial bodies just mould the path as in accordance to what moves an individual takes but to move and how and where to move is in each individual’s backpack. The other possibility is time whose might cannot be neglected either.
The energy and time together make work possible. This we know pertaining to our knowledge in physics and thus the events occur.
When staunch followers of the GOD process disapprove of some scientific reasoning, I laugh at them but when people who believe in science disapprove of GOD and yet show reason for every occurrence, they make me laugh even harder. For as I see neither science ever disapproved of GOD and neither GOD ever rejected any of the reasoning provided by science. In fact, both the phenomenon are so well cogged into each other that there arises a clear outlook to both and yet validating the each other without disapproving of one another.
