Prayer: Communicating with the God

‘Prayer’ is the way of life in all the religions of the world. Every culture has certain rituals related to show the gratitude towards the God. Prayers are done daily but still we find people who say that they do not know when the God responds to their prayers.

What is prayer? Does the recitation of certain scriptures and stanza work?

These are the questions which have often boggled my mind.

Around 10 years back when I was passing through a rough patch of my life, I found prayers to be the strongest way to anchor myself in that situation. Yes, I relied on the ritual recitation of the certain stanzas from the religious literature. It was a guidance or a discovery, I could not make it out now, I started to talk to the deity I was worshiping those days. This communication started as if I talk to somebody in person. This communication started to prolong could go for more than 40 to 45 mins sometimes. I was saying things as clear as I could. Sometimes, I still remember, I fought with that higher energy present in the form of deity. I cried, shouted, pleaded and even asked favors. Gradually I started feeling an energy coming in me which gave me some guidance. That guidance was all from inside, and yes, the situation started to move towards a solution, and finally I got direction in 2006.

The above incidence gave me a firm belief that, along with our religious rituals and ethos, communication is must. Of course, the religious rituals have deeper meanings which work, but communication with the Higher Energies adds a booster to it. It is actually the transmission of our thoughts to the universe. When we address it to higher energy (god/creator/deity) as per our religious/cultural belief, we have such a firm belief about the solution that, it works to attract the solution out of the blue. We call it a miracle or grace of the almighty. It works meta-physically. It is also true, even if we can do it by full concentration without associating to any religious belief, it will work.

Prayer is the process of aligning us to the universal energy which is positive. That is why; we have systems in religions which advocate prayers for many times a day. Islam has the system of prayers (Namaz) for five times. Same way Hinduism has Surya Pooja for three times a day. All religions advocate worship/prayers for a few times a day. All these disciplines are the ways to induce the positive energy and align the human brain with the Higher Energies.  

The good part is, all of us do it at some point or other, but never do it knowingly as the part of our schedule of the prayer.

 In my practice of astrology, I added this aspect while prescribing remedies to the people. All those who followed communication along with the ritual, got good results to their problem.

The motive of sharing this here is not to challenge any belief system. It is just to add an aspect that, communicative prayers add a new dimension to our own faith and strengthens it.

Have a week, full of trust and faith in the creator, ahead...

What is the function of Astrology?

To read this blog post in Hindi, kindly go to https://www.jyotishhealer.com/2020/04/astrologyfunction.html   The function of Astrology is to study ‘the formless manifesting in form’.   Let us understand it in a crisp way, on the basis of ‘Form’ and ‘Formless’, the concept has been well defined in Sanatan ideology and in some ideologies around the world.   A question is often discussed that how does Astrology work? It is authentic and scientific?   Add caption   Everything which is tangible and felt by our sense organs is ‘form’. The physical realm is form. We are form. Our possessions are form. Science is the study of form. It validates and then admits it. It is the way science works. No questions on it.   There are many things which we cannot see from our physical eyes and experience it by the sense organs many times, is ‘formless’. Nobody knows where we were before birth and where do we go after death? What is that in the body which makes it l...

Forgiveness: Forgiving self and others

The biggest problem of our life" Understanding forgiveness...forgiving self...forgiving others". Forgiveness is one deep thought which has access to the unlimited peace which is eternal in nature. To forgive others from the core of the heart is difficult as we have the resentments against that person and want the same happening to that person. We forget that the thought of resentments, revenge etc are burdens on our soul which we carry birth after birth and punish ourselves. At the same time, it is more difficult to understand that this has roots in our forgiveness for ourselves. We have lot of resentments against ourselves. We have thoughts to punish ourselves and keep punishing. Example: If we are addict to something in life, it is a sort of punishment we impose on ourselves for not forgiving ourselves for the deeds we committed in our past lives. We punish our being, our physical body and thus the emotional plane...creating more karma. So, in or...

My Planets and my close relatives

I often come across people asking, are their planets affecting their near relatives (parents, spouce, children etc) ? My simple answer is NO. How can your dasa effect other persons in your family or close to you ? It is simply a misconception. We need to understand, we are souls and everybody of us has our own account of Karma created in various life times. We are purely independent. We incarnate with other souls to learn lessons only and of course to support in this physical realm as parents, spouce, children, friends or some other relationships. As we are all connected to others by Karmic connections, our horoscope is the reflection of those relationships which are there with us in this life. Example: Suppose, in a horoscope of a child, it is evident that the father is well placed in his career and the family is well to do. For instance, before the the birth of the child, father is not doing well in his career . As the child takes birth, fat...
