My goals on the vedic astrology journey

In the previous post, I wrote about starting my journey in the quest of vedic astrology.

Below is a series of milestones that I would like to complete in this regard.

  1. By end of 2020: Define the field to specialize in.
    I would continue to get deeper into the astrology, understanding the fundamentals, the branches etc. At this time, I know I am more keen on making predictions relating in the community astrology rather than horoscope, match making, or predicting random events. Thats the one thing to validate and determine what it would take to get there.

  2. By end of Mar 2021: learn the Sanskrit language.
    As has been said and because of my own primary level experience learning Sanskrit, I know that the subtleties of this language far exceeds any other. Even if I dont pick up a book written totally in Sanskrit, I am going to have to read many shalokas in Sanskrit. Creating one's own interpretations of the original text is important to not become a copy cat and really add value to the subject. I am keeping it the month of March because that's when most school close their year and I would like to keep it aligned to that. :)

  3. By end of 2025: gain ability to accurately predict major events.
    This one a bit vague by intention. I am not sure how I am going to qualify this goal but the idea is that I should have mastered this topic by then. I should know what to do, how to do, methods, processes, charts, and my own gaps.

  4. By end of 2025: Improve on related goals.
    Along with astrology comes other related field from our rishis and jyotishis. These include Yoga,  meditation, learning Ayurveda. I need to have fair proficiency for day to day use in these areas. This wont make me an expert but a good student for sure.

  5. By end of 2030: foundation stone for Dharmic Astrology Institution in Himachal.
    All of sudden,  I seem to have gotten Nirvana on what I am going to do in my life. And that is to open an institute that impacts the education to young and old in a structure manner. Like a modern day college. When I say foundation stone, my commitment is to start this journey of such an institute not necessarily opening a session that year itself but starting to get there. The reason why it should be in Himachal Pradesh is not only because I am from Himachal and would like to spend my post retirement life there but also because I believe Himachal being the land of devis and devtas, it would be a much more appropriate place to start something like that as compared to, say, Delhi or Noida.

  6. By end of 2034: This is the year, that would see me having completed 60 years in the month of March and hence practically made redundant in the ear of fast moving technology industry. I would have retired that year or earlier. In either case, I would want to start dedicating full time towards the day to day functioning of my Dharmic Vedic Astrology institute. I would really like to take it to the heights of Takshila.

What Indya needs to do !?

Short answer: Many things :) What i wanted to focus on this blog is few of the key things that will make a big difference to Indya. 1. SSN (Social Security Number) for everyone - Well, if you have been US or any of the european countries, you would have known the importance of such unique number for all the citizens. for the unstarted, this is a killer number, you just need make it mandatory at the transactions we need to monitor. In India, we have a multitude of such numbers - PAN for tax, voter id for voting. Thankfully, only 2 of these are the big ones. Infact, we started voter id for a while and this had a fair success. I think we stopped because the so-called bahoo wali politicians were getting screwed. And it wont happen overnight or without the political will to do it. So, as citizen (the regular mundane lot), we need to create a difference by creating enough momentum to this thought. Once, we have SSN, just like PAN number has made a big difference to the tax collection, it wi

19 Opportunities with Covid19

“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis.' One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger--but recognize the opportunity.” ― John F. Kennedy Globally, there is only one thing that all of us are talking about these days and that is - the crisis created by the new novel coronavirus named COVID19.  This is what shows up topmost and for the most part in the newsfeed, on the WhatsApp and other social channels. This is for the right reasons, of course. World Health Organization (WHO) has already called it a pandemic. Countries including China, Korea, Iran, Italy have been widely impacted by the virus and taken drastic steps to control the spread.  As of date (6th April, 2020) below are the analytics on MoHFW.gov.in and these are super concerning to all. India, though has seen 109 deaths, things have not spread super widely as yet, compared to other countries. The Indian go

Retun to India - my experiences

This is a post on my experiences in India after moving back to India after 5+ years. I am writing this post after nearly an year of moving back to India. So, some of the things have blurred over a period of time. Since, I moved back to India without having made a single refresh trip in between, I had lost a feel of many things and so , perhaps, had more surprises than others.  Infrastructure: The grand reception at the Delhi's T3 terminal sets in a great mood about India. Followed by Indian builders who seem to have created fantastic monuments in and around the metros. India's builders are, perhaps, the most visible face of India's growth story. Roads have tried to keep up with the new lifestyle with most of the flyovers in place. Apartments with swimming pools, greens, gyms, clubs are a no big deal now. In short, private parties made big and have certainly done their bit. Metro is a great achievement and so are happy customers in the new DTC buses. However,
