Who am I !

 

Who am I ?

Who am I ?

Who am I !

I asked this question to many people, some told me that, I am the son of my father and some said that, I am an Astrologer, I am an MBA professional, I am the friend of Satish, I am Daddy, I am Husband,  I am Brother,  I am an Indian, I am a devotee and finally, I am an insane person...............

Not satisfied with their reply,  

I searched every nook and corner

From north to south & east to west

From the Himalayas to the Sathuragiri Hills

From Ganga to Cauvery

From pillar to post & from post to pillar

Crossing 50 years still searching, not given up yet.

At last, I landed on the Nilanchal parvat,

On my Divine Mother's lap, I found myself, 

In a daze, I slept to finally realise who I am, yes. I am her Sadhaka, who missed her during his childhood days.

Expensive or Worth Spending

People spend money on Movies, Expensive Gadgets, Garments, Entertainment, Education, Hospitals (Medical bills), Tours, Travels, Pleasures, etc. They never hesitate to pay a premium price for all these products & services, since they feel that these expenses are valuable to them. However, when it comes to spending on Astrology, some people hesitate to spend their money on it for various reasons and they look for cheap astrology services.

Some people, who feel that the fees paid to Astrologer are waste/expensive/costly need not consult a Professional Astrologer. It is time waste as well as their money, as they do not know the value of a Genuine Astrology Services.

People who are really interested and genuinely require Astrologers guidance need only consult Professional Astrologers. Since the services are highly valuable, so the price will be.

Astrologer Suresh Kumar services are not cheap/costly/expensive, it is WORTH SPENDING

I would like to answer some of the questions posed by some people through email and over the phone as follows:

FAQ's

1. Why do you Charge? Why don't you provide your services for Free?

My Ans. Every person in this world works to earn money for fulfilling their necessaries, essentials, and for comfortable living. Likewise, I too earn money in the form of "Consultation Fees" to pay my bills like Electricity, provisions, house rent, taxes, School fees (my kids), petrol for my vehicle, medicines, and all other essentials. Since all my necessaries should be bought from money, I am compelled to provide the astrological services on my earnings.

2. Astrology is a divine science. should it not be offered Free to everybody?

My Ans. Astrology is a divine science. But, an Astrologer is a human being (person) living in society. To live in society, he/she has to pay the bills. If any gentleman or any organization takes care of my bills (Essentials, provisions, house rent, etc), I will provide my services freely to anybody.

3. Why is your Fee so high and expensive?

My Ans. My Fee is high or expensive, is in the minds of people. In reality, it is not expensive or high. It is the perception of some people that Astrologer should be paid less money and the Astrologer should accept whatever is paid to them. Some people should understand that Astrologer's services are highly valuable. The various astrological services are Horoscope Readings, Remedies, fixing Muhurthas for Griha Pravesha (House Warming ceremonies), Marriages, starting of Business, and many more services.

These people should think for a while,the cost of ceremony or function is several hundred times more than the Dakshina given to an Astrologer. In fact, Marriage takes place after the matching of birth charts by an Astrologer. Afterward, Marriages will be celebrated in a grand manner. The Fees paid for matching the horoscopes is very very less when compared to other costs. It should be noted that Dakshina is Worth Spending and Value for Money. It should be paid with due respect.

4. Should I pay again for a single question? I had consulted some months back and you have my horoscope?

My Ans. Normally, I answer your questions (your forgotten questions in consultation) within 3 days of your Horoscope Consultations. It is a free consultation. After one month period, It will be charged again.

Your horoscope (Jathagam) might be there in my database. It doesn't mean that I remember all the predictions that were given to you and I have to answer whenever you put the questions.

It may be a single question or repeat question, small or big, my work remains the same. So, you need to pay the Fees.

Birthday - Happy or Sad

BIRTHDAY

As a small town guy, i don't know about Birthday celebrations. Hardly, one or two may wish me "Happy Birthday to you". No Cake cutting or parties.

Even though, i am living in a city now, i don't wish to celebrate it because of no reason. I have never given value to my Birthday. Hence, No Happy or any other feelings attached to it.

But, this Birthday is special to me. Because, it brought Sadness into my life. My Guru was not there to call me, "SureshAnandji". He is the only person (supreme soul), who calls me "Suresh Anandji" for my knowledge and wisdom.

"Suresh Kumar" was the name given by my parents for their son (my body). Probably, they may not know, what I will become in my future. There is no special thing in this name as every parent gives some name to their child. But, my Guru gave me the name "SureshAnandji" and made me to realise  "Who am I".

In Astrology, Ninth House is known for Father and Guru. In my Opinion, both are same and irrepleacable.

Graha or Planet

Off late, two things (Jyotish related) are happening at fast pace.

They are:
1. Criticising and making fun of  'Jyotish Sastra' without sufficient knowledge about it.
2. Reading Astrology Articles online as well as offline (Books) and thinking that they know Astrology. 
   
I get several emails and messages about Jyotish Sastra. One of the common question (Criticism) is,

How do you call 'Sun' as Planet (because Sun is a Star)?

My Answer : Sun (Surya) is a Graha. 'Planet' is an English word used for the word 'Graha' which may not convey the right meaning of Graha. Infact, there are no proper words in English language for many sanskrit words.  Jyotish Sastra is a Vedanga. It was written in Sanskrit language. According to Jyotish Sastra, there are Nine Grahas (known as 'Navagrahas'). The meaning of "Graha" explained in English language is as follows:

 

Readers are requested to understand the meaning of several concepts in Jyotish Sastra before coming to conclusions.

I don't say that reading Jyotish Articles online or books is bad. But, do not come to conclusion before discussing with a proper Guru / Acharya. 

Story of a Client

An young man lost his job due to recession in the market. He was unable to get a proper job for him. He attended many interviews and he got some offers that are below his rank (position) with less salary than what he was earning. He didn't accepted these offers as he was working in a good rank. He decided to wait for sometime for good offer. He was unemployed for many days and he got frustrated and disappointed. Financial disturbances due to lack of job lead to misunderstandings in his family. One of his friend recommended him to do Yoga and Meditation to keep his mind calm, so that, he can wait patiently for a good job. This guy started doing yoga and meditation for some days and after some time he lost interest in the yoga and meditation because of the stress and strain due to jobless. Another friend recommended him to join a motivational course, so that, he can be positive thinking. This guy joined motivational course and got energized drastically. With new energy, he checked every nook and corner for a suitable job. Time has passed without any good result and he lost his energy day by day.

On the occasion of family function, this guy visited his native place. He took the blessings of his grand parents in the native place. By observing his dull face, his grand mother asked him the reason for his dullness and took him to a local astrologer. By checking the horoscope of this guy, Astrologer has told him that, the present time is not favourable for him and he has to wait for another 6 months to get into a good job. Till then, he is advised to do a job which can fetch him a salary to meet his needs and he may not expect a good position for these 6 months. Then, this young man asked the Astrologer, will i get a good job after 6 months?   "Yes, you are likely to get a good job after 6 months" Astrologer replied. This young man got some confidence in the astrologer's predictions and joined a small job to meet his needs and waited for 6 months period. He worked hard and learnt new lessons in his life in the small job and after completion of nearly 7 months, he got promotion from the present job and at the same time, he got a good offer from another company.

My Notes: Astrologer will not change your fate, but will guide you in difficult situations. Have some confidence in Astrologer's predictions , wait for Right time and Act.

My Guru and My Education

My Guru and My Education

My Guru never repeats the same sentence or lesson again. If we missed it due to concentration problems or any other problem, it means we have missed it forever. So we have to listen to each and every word carefully. He insists us to absorb the knowledge directly from his teachings and never encourages to write in our notebook.

I always connect his training from the words of Vimalananda (from the book 'Aghora') as follows: "What sort of educational system do we have nowadays? They announce their examinations in advance so that any idiot can mug up a bunch of notes in preparation. The key to testing someone is to test them when they least expect it and are least prepared for it. Then you have an accurate idea of how much they really know."

Debate / Argument

I never like to debate or argue with anybody as everybody has their own views, beliefs, and faiths. I don't like to change their views or criticize their beliefs. But still, some people try to drag me into it as soon as they come to know that I am an Astrologer. I would like to share one such experience in this post.

I visited a Music Teacher (Keyboard player) to know about the admission procedure for my son. During our conversation, he came to know about my profession and asked the questions to influence me about his faith.

The conversation is as follows:

Music Teacher's Q: You are a well educated person and an MBA Professional, how can you believe in Astrology?

My Ans. Since, I am an educated person and a Professional, I believe Astrology. My education taught me to respect sastras, vedas, and vedangas. Astrology is one of the Vedanga and I believe it.

Music Teacher's Q: How can the planets influence people on earth?

My Ans. Doesn't Moon influence the Sea level causing high tides on Full Moon and New Moon days. You can observe the psychologically ill persons on these days as there will be a lot of variations in their behaviour. Likewise, all planets show their influence on us.

Music Teacher's Q: Astrology cannot be seen, it is fake?

My Ans. Astrology cannot be seen, it can be felt.

Music Teacher's Q: In my religion, we don't believe Astrology. we believe in God.

My Question: Ok, show me your God as you believe his existence.

He answered me, His God is a spirit and cannot be seen.

I concluded the conversation and told him, you have never seen your God and still believe him. You think that your belief is right. Likewise, everybody has their own beliefs. You don't have the right to question the other people about their beliefs and faiths.

Every Religion says, ''Trust God"

I respect all religions & living beings. Above all, I am a Human Being.

Single Dictum

Astrology doesn't work on single dictum. It works on the combined efforts of all Nine planets, Stars, and Rasis.

Some of my clients studied the single dictum's and ask me the questions based on it. The following are some of the questions:

Q1. What happens, when Ketu in the 7th house?
Q2. What is the result of Jupiter in 2nd house?
Q3. What is the Gochara (transit) results of Jupiter transiting 5th house?
Q4.  I have Lakshmi Yoga and why it's not working?

and many more questions like this.

My Answers: All the above questions are based on a single planet and on one yoga. There is no mention about the Natal charts i.e. Rasi chart. For example, Ketu in 7th house behaves in a different manner for different Lagnas and with conjunctions and aspects of other planets. It is good to learn the basic principles and experiment with different permutations and combinations before coming to conclusions.

The mere presence of Yogas doesn't guarantee the results. Because there are several factors to nullify the yogas. For example: If a malefic planet aspects the Lakshmi Yoga in the horoscope, then the native may not get the benefits of the yoga.        

Homa performed during Surya Grahanam (Solar Eclipse)

Homa performed in my home on account of Surya Grahanam today i.e. 9th March, 2016  for the peace and prosperity of all beings and the universe. Thanks to my  Guru, God and Planets for making it successful.

Ujjain darshan - Mahakaali's blessings

From my childhood days, I am very much obsessed and passionate about Mahakali pooja. It may be because of the stories I heard about King Vikramaditya and famous poet Kalidasa of Ujjain (formerly known as Avantikapuri). Kalidasa got the boons from Mahakaali and became great poet. I too wanted to get boons from Mahakaali. Due to restrictions from family, I never got an opportunity to perform pooja to Mahakaali. From that time, Mahakaali sat in my subconscious mind, waiting for the right time to arrive.

That waiting moment came to me this year during my visit to Ujjain. Mahakaal is the Lord of Time and the main deity in Ujjain. Other important temples in Ujjain are Gad Kaalika temple and Kaal Bhairav temple. Gad Kaalika temple is the place where great poet Kalidasa got his literary skills as a boon from Goddess Kali. I prayed to Goddess Kaalika to bless me and give boons to me as well. My prayers were answered and got the boon in the same day. It is not the magic of one day prayer that got me the result. It's my prayers from many decades with sub conscious & conscious mind for the blessings. The photo of Gad Kaalika is uploaded for the benefit of my readers to get the blessings and boons from her. 

Kaal Bhairav Temple is another historic temple not to be missed. Liquor is offered to Kaal Bhairav as part of worship. The photo of Kaal Bhairav drinking liquor is uploaded below.

Miracles happen

Somewhere , sometime or at some point
i thought, do miracles happen
believe or not?
many years passed without any miracle........
I do remember the day, when Kaalbhairav at Ujjain
blessed me to live with Kaal (time) and to guide the people with Kaal.....
i left my corporate job and just obeyed
then what, why something is waiting for me now at Sathuragiri hills
got the call to visit Mahalingam
what else karma is pending for me?
prayed 18 siddhars and got blessings
felt very happy without communication (no mobile connectivity and no electricity with some solar lights)
my soul got lighter and lighter, got connected to nature..........
lost the route in my return journey
then, where to go?
for some moments, again felt very happy for missing the route
Miracles do happen
Lord Bhairav came in the form of Dog
and showed me the path
he asked, why slow? still you got time to live and guide the people
and said, yourself cannot be liberated easily
slowly, reached the edge of the hills
finally agreed, miracles do happen

(Just remembering this post shared on 28th Jan, 2015)

Fate is Inevitable

In my experience I had seen many instances where Fate is inevitable and man has no choice. If we accept the Fate, we can be comfortable to some extent or else, we may loose whatever is remaining.

I would like to share some live experiences in this context.

One day, a person walked into my office with prior appointment and asked about his future. I prepared his horoscope and started reading it. He was happy with the readings of present time. Then I predicted about his next year and said he should be careful in his business dealings and there may be financial problems due to it. I cautioned him to solve the financial commitment, if any, at the earliest and also warned him not to enter into any new business investments.

My Client had listened to my predictions and told me that he is financially sound and he can cope with any problem in the next year. He took the blessings and left.

After one year, he called me and informed that his business turnover has decreased and overheads (expenses like Rent, Branch expenses, Advertisement, salaries to employees etc) had increased. He had spent his hard earned money to meet the expenses for some time. He also took some loan on credit and paying interest for the same to meet his daily needs. Now he wanted to know when his problems will come to an end.

Conclusions: Fate had given him a warning to be careful the next year, through my horoscope readings. However, he never cared for it due to the present success and over confidence. If he had taken care, he might have closed the loss making branch, reduced the staff, reduced the advertising expenses and could have kept low profile for some time, till the bad time crossed over. But Fate is inevitable, he cannot escape from it. 

Note: The above is the real life experience of my client.

Professional Astrologers, Fake Astrologers & Commercial Astrologers

In my view, there exists three kinds of Astrologers. They are as follows:

1. Professional Astrologers: These Astrologers are qualified and well trained. They should be having valid certificates from authorized educational institutions. Some of them have good training with Masters in Astrology and have good word power.

Professional Astrologers will guide people with realities. They will explain about fate and freewill of the clients. Remedies without commercial benefit will be recommended to their clients.

2. Commercial Astrologers: Commercial Astrologers may be trained, educated or might have acquired knowledge from other seniors in astrology. Some of them might be certified and qualified. Their main aim is to convert every possible problem of their client into commercial way. These Astrologers may sell remedies in the form of Yantras, Kavach and Gem stones even though there is no necessity of it.

3. Fake Astrologers: These category people are not Astrologers at all. They are quacks / cheats. In spite of having no solution for many problems, these quacks will provide the remedies to their clients by charging heavily. They might be knowing some terms in astrology and use these words to create fear in clients. They sell all kinds of things which are profitable to them like duplicate stones, lockets, yantras, mantras etc.

People should be able to understand the type of Astrologer they are meet and know the reality.

Why Predictions fail?

Astrology never fails. But the predictions given by an Astrologer may fail due to various factors. Some of the general reasons for failure are given below:

1. Correct Date of Birth, Time of Birth and Place of Birth is necessary for casting Birth Horoscope. It may lead to wrong predictions if a person fails to provide correct details.  Many people have correct date of birth, but they fail to give correct time of birth. The difference of few minutes in the birth time may vary the predictions.

2. Faith and Trust plays important role in Astrology. The person should have confidence in the Astrologer's predictions or else it may lead to failure of predictions.

3. The person should ask genuine and correct questions to an Astrologer.  Please note, "Only True Question will get a True Answer".

4. Never interrupt or involve in the middle of Horoscope reading by an Astrologer.  This may disturb the mood of the Astrologer. Questions can be asked at frequent intervals.

5. If the Astrologer fails to read your horoscope properly, you may help him to rectify it or else you can say 'goodbye' to him. Failure doesn't shows the inefficiency of an Astrologer, but it shows that he is not entitled to read your horoscope.

Value of an Astrologer - 2

Continued from the earlier post Value of an Astrologer

Many people have a habit of asking free suggestions from Astrologers. One of my clients used to call me whenever he needed my suggestions like fixing muhurtha for his activities, good time for meeting clients, reasons for his failures etc. He paid me single time consultation fees and uses me for his life time. It's a great deal for him.

One time Consultation Fees =  Life time free astrological guidance

Will anybody provide this kind of service anywhere in the world?

When I have asked for fees towards my services, he told that Astrologer should provide free consultations, as it is a divine science and it is wrong to ask fees.

I never argued with this person however I simply do not attend his calls. These kind of people should understand that, Astrologers too have expenses like electricity bills, kids school fees, house rent, property tax, water bills, telephone bills etc......

If these services were provided freely to an Astrologer, we can provide free consultation services as well.

The value of Real Astrologers got diminished in the modern days because of the wrong perceptions of some people and with the activities of fake astrologers/quacks. I will discuss about Fake astrologers in my next post.

  

Value of an Astrologer

Many decades or centuries back, Astrologers were the most valuable persons in the King's court. Astrologers used to sit on par with other ministers in the King's cabinet. The astrological guidance of Astrologers were followed by many kings. The greatest example is the court of King Vikramaditya. Varahamihira and Kalidasa were the great astrologers in his court.

Kings used to take care of the financial needs of Astrologers. They were provided with comfortable accommodation and good pay. Astrologers used to guide common people freely without any fees as they were taken care by the Kings. Common people rarely contact astrologers for Naming purpose or to know their Rasi and Nakshatra. 

As the time changed, Kings and their empires vanished. Astrologers came into public and started practicing their profession for their livelihood. The honour of Astrologers came down drastically by the decline of empires. 

Many VIP's and VVIP's are using the services of astrologers secretly. The great predictions were kept as secret. Due to modernization, the profession of astrologer lost its glory. 

....................................................... Continued in next post

Appeal to Public

Many times, i listened complaints from some of my clients that, some other astrologers / babas took money from them towards doing certain poojas or rituals to remove their problems. I request my readers / clients to be aware of such fraudulent techniques used by fake astrologers or quacks.

Dhruda Karma - Sins cannot be relieved by any Astrologer or any Baba just by doing certain rituals. Do not get involved into such things and get duped.

Astrologer by Destiny and Management Professional by Choice

When I was in my teenage, I said to my parents that I would like to become an Astrologer.

They were surprised about my career choice and told me that, Astrologer job is a cheap profession and they live on the small fees (dakshina) paid by clients. It's like a beggar job wherein clients pay the fees at their own discretion.

My parents opinion is true. During 1980s and 1990s, astrologers were paid small amounts of dakshina along with betel leaves and nuts. Till now, I feel that people have not changed.

Anyway, I followed my parent's advice and pursued their dream of seeing me as an Engineer or an Officer or a Bank employee. I studied MBA and became a Management Professional in a top company in New Delhi. Thus became a Management Professional by Choice.

During my working days as a Management professional, I never left my interest in occult sciences. I met many people with similar interests in and around Delhi. I traveled to Haridwar, Rishikesh, Alwar, Gurgaon and many historic places in north India during my stay in New Delhi. I used to give predictions and fix muhurthas for my friends, relatives and colleagues in my free time.

After working for many years in corporate world, I resigned my job one fine day and took up Astrology as a full time profession. The credit of making me an Astrologer for full time should be given to my Guru.

Now, I became an Astrologer by Destiny.
