Email Excerpts of a Guru
Predictions dont make sense Any predictions whether of Nostradamus or anyone else, just don’t make any sense. The only lesson anyone draws from these thing is that if everything is destined in life then ‘we do not have freedom whatsoever’. This is refuted by our Vedas, logic and even by our experiences. It is the ‘Law of Karma’ which alone satisfactorily explains things in the world and not astrology. If even for a moment we accept that everything is destined, then mind you God will become the greatest and biggest sadist of the world. How can the creator ever create the suffering masses, the inequality and all these things? No religion can ever dream of even imagining such a God. So we do not accept that everything is predestined.
Is everything pre-destined? While there is definitely something called destiny, yet everything is not pre-destined. To say every thing is pre-destined will be to deny all that the scriptures have been trying to tell. It would be the greatest dis-service to the ageless vedic wisdom, if every thing is imagined to be pre-destined, and the basic objective of religious masters is equated with predicting future. It amounts to not only denying the scriptures but even your very freedom.
