What is Fate!!!

Is there a thing called fate? Or is it a screen behind which the clever, the unlawful, the weak-willed persons conceal their wrong doing by holding God or Karma responsible for their faults? Is fate a way of shedding responsibilities and claiming redressal for wrong doing by explanations that “Nature” or “Fate” compelled them to do what they did? Let’s look into this problem in the light of following facts:

• The universe is complicatedly arranged and diligently run functioning. The operations run evenly because every component of this vast operation is assigned a specific task(s). Each human birth takes place to carry out its devoted task in accordance with its Karma. This allocation of task(s) is “Fate” or “Destiny”.

• If events are not being determined in advance, they cannot be forecasted. The fact that something, some event, due to take place at a future date, can be predicted, gives credence to the existence of “Fate”.

• The circumstances and the environment of the house where one is born are pre-determined. To be born with a silver spoon in the mouth or in poor, poverty-laden circumstances is “Fate” or “Destiny”.

Conclusion: There is a force, call it what you may, that shapes human lives. Hindu Astrology takes a giant intellectual step and identifies this force as Karma. The present is conditioned by the past Karma and the Karma, which we do in the present, shapes our future.

What is the Karma theory!!!

The Vedas teach us “Do Not Fear” because our God bless us in “Abhaya Mudra” which is fearless posture. Upanishads tells us “Moksha is not for Cowards”. We fear death, we fear misfortune, we fear the unknown and we fear everything. Karma theory puts things in a perspective where we begin to realize that we are the part of a properly conceived, meticulously planned and brilliantly executed “grand design”. We are acting out our roles as sketched out by the great designer.
The karma theory rests on three pillars and they are:
• Reincarnation
• Man’s inescapable propensity to do Karma; an action less existence is not possible.
• Fruits of action have to be enjoyed/suffered. That is the only way in which the cycle of action and its results gets spent.

A man inevitably enjoys the good or bad results of his Karma, unspent they do not decrease even in eons.
These 3 pillars very subtly but in a very perceptible fashion encourage the human beings to grip up and fight the “fear” and attain “Moksha”, without reincarnation there can b no Astrology. For Astrology is merely reading the karmic patterns which has a link with the past life(s) and also with the future life(s).

The karmic pattern is woven skillfully in a horoscope, so as to indicate the balance of Karma that he native is carrying as well as his mission or task in this life. How is it done?

Let us see-

All of us are “a replica” of Universe. The five elements, fire, water, earth, air and ether (A very improper word for Aakash element) Constitutes the universe and we are also an amalgam of these five elements. It, therefore, stands to reason that we are a small part of a Grand Design, place in the fashion so that we can make our contribution. Each one of he humans has desires and wishes to fulfill them. Each one of us is motivated differently and reacts in a different manner to a given situation. It is outer manifestation of the Karmic pattern and the inner motivations to exhaust the fruits of past Karmas and to do Karma that lead to emancipation is seen in a horoscope when we divide it into four parts as under:
(A) Dharma (B) Artha (C) Kama (D) Moksha

In a horoscope houses 1st, 5th, 9th are the houses of Dharma; 2nd, 6th,10th are the Artha houses, 3rd, 7th, 11th are the Kama houses and 4th, 8th 12th are the Moksha houses.

The signs and planets occupying and influencing these houses indicate the Karma patterns. If the majority of planets are in Artha and Kama houses, the native’s inclinations and motivations are oriented in that direction. He has desires (Kama) and the money (Artha) and if they match at the right time in the native’s chronological growth, he can enjoy then to the full. This is the pattern, which is laid out in the horoscope. On the other hand, a native due to achieve emancipation would have a planetary distribution in his Dharma and Moksha segments. Various combinations are possible and that is why we see people having differing outlooks and Motivations.
