What?’s your astrological sign. Everyone knows what his or her sign is. Even if you?’re not a believer that the position of the planets at the exact time of your birth is an indicator of your personality and can determine events that happen to your throughout your lifetime, you?’ve certainly met someone who does believe. At the very least, it?’s harmless club conversation, a way to get to know someone. But is there something to it. Are horoscopes just hocus pocus. Or do they truly predict the course of events in your life.

Astrology is one of the earliest sciences known to human history. There are astrological records that originated in Babylon in 1645 BCE. Other cultures, such as Egyptian and Greek developed timekeeping and calendar methodologies. From the time man began to observe and track the world around him, he?’s also contemplated his own relationship to the earth, stars, planets and elements around him. Astrology may have one way that earliest civilizations helped define their place in the cosmos. They perceived it as being greater than themselves; not something to be conquered, but to be understood.

While in modern times astrology is seen as new age and not as credible as sciences like astrophysics or chemistry, at one time it was as credible a science as any other. Astronomers like Galileo and Copernicus were also practicing astrologers. With the evolution of more quantitative sciences, astrology?’s influence and position began to diminish. It enjoyed a resurgence in the 1930?’s with the birth

Everyone who?’s read a really good astrological profile of himself has to admit there are some uncanny coincidences. Can we really pretend we?’re so knowledgeable of the universe that we can reject the discipline of astrology. Maybe Shakespeare had something there when he wrote in Hamlet, *There are more things on heaven and earth Horatio than are dreamt of in your philosophy.*

Astrology existed since time began. Through the study of the planets and signs of the zodiac your future can be forecasted and an understanding of your real self can be known. This is commonly known as horoscopes

At your exact time of birth all the planets, the moon and sun are in a certain pattern, this can be thought of as a birth chart or natal chart and can be used to discover your personality and pathway. Some see this chart as an interpretation of the life that is to be lived before you and the challenges that you will have to overcome. As your main reason for your existence is to learn and gain experience the birth chart can help explain what these experiences will be. It can also explain lessons to be learned and issues that will need to be faced in certain areas of a person’s life. But what ever these may be it is important to remember that all of the lessons and trials you will experience are there to aid you in your growth and further you in life’s experience.

You will also be able to see strengths that you have to aid you, these strengths are normally in areas you have already mastered and like the new strengths you acquire in this life will be there to help you forever.

Through the use of the information contained in your horoscope you can also obtain information on why you behave the way you do and why you are drawn to certain types of work and people.

By understanding your self better you can make greater use of the things you are good at performing and have a more in depth idea of the things you don’t

A horoscope can never show how you are going to “play” this hand. While you usually have freedom of choice or free will, the horoscope does reflect natural inclinations that you have to live with, lessons you have to learn, issues to be faced, and problems to be solved.

The horoscope can also be useful when you require a better understanding about others around you. You can discover just what makes them act the way they do and whet would really make them happy. It can also be interesting to find out why they act the way they do. While astrology can provide incredible keys to understanding, but it doesn’t provide clear and simplistic answers to any problems with which you may be dealing.

What ever your use of the horoscope and astrology, the information will give you an insight into a world that you may have little knowledge of and provide a valuable source of information. In continuing you can take various paths depending on the information you seek and the time you wish to spend on it.

Astrological Predictions are often said to be least connected with reality, however number of people seeking help of astrologers regarding these predictions are increasing. Most of the time despite constant debate on credential of these predictions, they turn out to be true or very near to truth.

Well, individual astrological predictions about a person are made on the basis of his/her birth chart. Birth Chart is examined in relation to various planetary movements at present and at the time of the birth of the person to find out their cosmic effect on the person?s life and forecast is made accordingly.

Astrological predictions or forecast is an age old practice that was prevalent even in ancient civilizations of Rome and China. Chinese astrology and old Vedic astrology were of great assistance in decision making in those bygone eras. These decisions were rather based on predictions offered by astrologers.

Despite a surge in number of forecast seekers, astrology is subdued as a stream that can’t make precise predictions instead it could reveal some trends related to your future. But for believers, astrology can surely make absolute predictions as it bases its predictions upon the person’s birth chart details and stars.

Daily astrological prediction that is also known as daily horoscope offers an insight into future of folks with twelve differing sun signs. A common forecast is offered for people of one particular sign.

These predictions are not restricted to only one or two walks of a person’s life instead a

But astrological predictions can’t be relied upon to make decisions in some of the cases. However these predictions by making you acquainted with future circumstances help you in facing adverse situations in a better way. But you must seek your astrological details including forecast from an astrologer who have earned credibility, otherwise you may get fooled by deceitful statements by a person who hardly knows astrology. Psychic astrologers are best in making predictions who try to get future trends by doing your behavioral analysis along with your birth chart analysis.

People who accept the realm of the paranormal and unnatural are certain that people in the beginning are born with psychic powers but only few becomes a psychic. There are two types of psychics that we believe in; the “natural born” and those with little powers within them. The “natural born” psychics are said to be the gifted as they have great amount of psychic powers since birth. On the other hand, those who are born with lesser amount of psychic powers requires heavy practice and understanding in order to grow. In other cases, lots of psychics whose abilities are suddenly awaken by strong emotions or near-death experience, which results into having great amount of mental powers in an instant.

Psychics are people with great mental abilities beyond the use of the five senses; clairvoyance / telepathy, cold reading, psychic reading, dream interpretation, palm reading, astrological reading and tarot card reading are just some of the abilities of a psychic. Here are some aspects that may help a person to develop his/her psychic skills or abilities.

UNDERSTANDING. Spiritual development requires time, patience and understanding. In order to develop your psychic ability, you must first understand its importance and purpose, having a psychic powers also hold responsibilities; becoming a psychic means that you allow your mind and body to grow spiritually, set your goal into helping others, giving the precise information as possible and know that having a psychic ability is never to be abused.

PATIENCE. Whether if youR

Just about every two thousand years, the astrological age changes. The last change occurred when Christ was born, when we also entered the Age of Pisces. Now we find ourselves in the Age of Aquarius, the age of progress in various fields that we once considered being without a future.

Some people say that all the effects we are now facing, with all the progress we made in important fields of interest, are just effects of the upcoming Age of Aquarius. These effects are said to be felt anywhere between 500 and 800 years before we enter the new astrological age.

Nonetheless, we are facing growth in a lot of areas. Apart from computers, automobiles, airplanes and space travel, other fields of interest like astrology, alternative medicine and others, all of them once considered futureless, are now as common as if they were indulged thousands of years ago.

A person that symbolizes the progress of the Age of Aquarius is Derald George Langham. An American researcher, born in Polk City, Iowa, on a 160 acre farm, he developed an interest in plants and animals from an early age. Throughout his life his main occupation was as an agricultural geneticist, but he was also the founder of the Genesa foundation.

A common nickname for him is the â??father of sesameâ??, because of all the helpful research in the field of sesame genetics. He is not so well known for his research with corn and beans, but the Rockefeller Institute in Mexico found a use for it, and now all the genes developed by Langham can be found in all the corn hybrids aro

The progress we make in all the scientific and spiritual fields might be random, but the question is why it didnâ??t happen before. Genesa crystal pendants, as well as jewelry representations of all the other signs of the Age of Aquarius can definitely improve the way you feel and therefore the overall aspect of your life.

Of Cosmic Therapy: How to Become An Ally With Your Ego

Fear is based in the Ego. Although the Ego has gotten a bum rap, it really does not deserve such a bad report card. Ego is designed as a protective mechanism. In order to keep you safe, secure and relatively sane, the Ego constantly scouts for possible warning signs of impending doom, upcoming danger or proposed collapse. The problem ensues when you feed the Ego unnecessarily, with all sorts of neurotic ideas, paranoid notions, schizophrenic assumptions and delusional syndromes, not to mention your obsessive compulsive mental practices. How else is the Ego supposed to react other than to take on the shielding stance by becoming a fearful nervous bodyguard whose first response is intense, uptight and ‘flat out’ defensive in times of overwork, stress or unexpected calamity? We can also throw in a little suspicion, sarcasm, and cynicism just for good measure, too.

So what is one to do? You will have to set about to deprogram your Ego. That is not an easy job to say the least. Your Ego has been with you since the day you entered this earth plane. It has watched you change your mind, say things you didn’t mean, lie, sneak, steal, gossip, compete, compare, cry, moan, gripe, complain, worry, hinder, pretend, brown nose, molly-coddle, confess things unnecessarily for self-benefit or adoration, in addition to building resentment when it appeared others got the breaks and you didn’t. It has lived with you, endured all of the self-wallowing pity stories of how so and so did you so wron

In the process of inhabiting the same house (temple of flesh) with you, it has grown quite accustomed to your devious ways of bewitching sentimentality. It knows when you are about to blow a fuse and will warn you with subtle messages, but most often times you ignore the inferred nudging. You have persuaded the Ego that you KNOW what you are talking about, everyone else is a stupid idiot and on that of that, “You are the single most attractive, intelligent, funny and interesting person with whom you are acquainted.” Yes, the Ego has seen you turn emotional/mental somersaults that would make a Gold Medalist Gymnast blush. Your Ego knows you pretty well. Probably better than you think or imagine. But, you simply won’t give it any credit for doing its job. So, instead of being your ally, it has blown a proverbial fuse and in the course of trying to protect you from the ‘evils of the world’, it has created and intensified a fear mechanism to offset your phobic mood swings.

Unfortunately, you have done such a great job of convincing your Ego that the world is out to get you, it will do whatever it takes to assure you are not gobbled up then impolitely disposed of. Which brings me back to my original supposition: What are you gong to do to break the strong hold it has over you? There is no way you can convince it to let up since you are now aware of the fact that there’s really nothing to be frightened of. It doesn’t believe you. It won’t believe you. It can’t believe you. Yu are not very trustworthy. It’s seen you manipulate, connive, scheme, and distort words, people and situations before. You will have to use something you never ever thought about using as you approach the well conditioned Ego.

What will you have to use in order to turn the page on Ego’s instilled defense pattern? Nothing. It will happen of itself IF you implement these actions. .

Do nothing to keep you safe, sheltered, or secure. Do not compare by saying this is good, better, or best. Eliminate any internal dialogue with yourself that you allow in order to validate your current molested ideas. Have no judgment or comment Seek no outside agreement, support, praise, or validation. Do nothing to eliminate uneasiness, move into it fully. Do not make judgment on matters beforehand. Be where your feet are at all times. Limit your comments on issues not concerning you. Natural and convenient wisdom diminishes fear of the situation. Belly tension is caused by avoidance; face it, do it, say it. Talk less. The ego will release its grip IF you don’t push its ‘go” buttons. Anger is repressed fear. The Ego’s on 24 hour duty! There are only a few sacred times in life that you are permitted to enter a ‘horrible place’ of being knocked down – don’t try to fix it – stay in it. Be still; no need to rush. Nothing’s out of order, ever! Never try to calm your mind! Never repress feelings; express them. Laugh when there’s no reason to. Sing at least once a day. Never try to change your circumstances. Let it be. Let it be. Let it be.

These tactics will have to be implemented slowly and with subtle awareness. Your Ego is going to rebel and rebuke in such an unlike manner like you’ve never encountered before. You will, in fact, experience more fear due to the Ego not understanding your wise approach and sure footed ways. Peace, serenity, confidence, composure are not virtues it sees from you a lot; so, it will be leery of your ploy to dry up the fear it readily offers. Since the Ego has no clue what you are doing or why, you will have to enforce your position with a super dose of gratitude for the part it has played in your life up until this point. The Ego will appreciate the boost of confidence so much. It will simply and quickly have to invent another avenue of entertainment for you.

Y.O.U. {Yes;Outright Unduplicatable!}

It’s all about coming to KNOW, understand and enjoy the most important person in the world: YOU! Yes, YOU are the single most influential aspect in your world. Without dissecting the various nuances which make up your individual character and personality, coupled with how you relate, interact and connect with others, nothing else matters. YOU are an immensely vast subject. Cosmic in nature, divine in origin, and human in action, you must unravel the purposeful experience of your life while you follow the undaunted path of your Soul’s unfolding. YOU are a Cosmic Experiment who lives, breathes and has its life infused with a healthy dose of enthusiastic curiosity. Every “thing’, person, place and event you are involved with, mirrors YOU! Your life is an on-going ‘fun’ therapy which affords you an ever-flowing stream of spontaneous episodes in which to engage. This self-perpetuated daily walk of observance and tabulation can be filled with a unquenchable thrist of joy unspeakable if you are a mind to receive it. No other accomplishment will substitute for the soul’s rendering of pleasure invested. Use the time, put forth the effort {conscious remembering} and instill the inclination to observe yourself {as a course of fascinating study}. It’s indescribably rewarding! The fact is: YOU are the most captivating subject in the universe. No other study solicits, warrants and commands such invigorating insight and delight.In the beginning and during, what may seem lik

Really, when compared to other more complex and confounded subjects, why is it so necessary to become aware, observe, study and contemplate YOU with such concentrated focus and minute precision? Does it seem relatively insignificant? Because YOU are a multi-faceted, multi-layered, intricate, elaborately designed, musically/artistically/dramatically colorful sexual being who contains multitudes of volumes of ancient history within, as well as, a divinely inspired composite of numerous ‘common everyday’ ordinary untold delectable accounts in emotional involvements/relationships. YOU have something to say. No one else can say it like YOU can. Nobody can do YOU like you can do YOU. YOU have something so vital to remind the rest of us. We are all masters of divine essence we have simply forgotten our sacred artistic heritage. By taking the time to become cognizant of the interrelated sublime world we inhabit, allowing it to penetrate our personal experiences, we are stirred to experience something of such simple, yet glorious wonder which connects us all universally/globally/galactic. By and through intensive delicate study, {ingesting every breath of it} we can immediately realize that we, along with everything we can see, feel, hear or imagine that has ever existed or ever will exist are bound together in a unified reflected divine hologram.

YOU may not be consciously aware of the enormous innate treasure chest of artistic talents and gifts YOU possess. {Due to the fact you’ve never purposely pursued opening “IT” because of a variety of reasons from being embarrassed to erroneously believing you don’t possess any ability.} YOU may, in fact, live your entire life under the false assumption that YOU are not artistic by any stretch of the imagination. YOU may quickly reply: “You’ve got it all wrong. I’m not an artist. Why I can’t even draw stick men in proportion.” That matters not. YOU are a Divine Artist/Creator. YOU are at odds with yourself because the ideas YOU try so fiercely to maintain about yourself are false. Though the notions were necessary for your life on Earth, inaccurate assumptions have been instilled in YOU through faulty teaching, unenlightened reasoning and uninformed conditioning. YOU were taught to respect, admire and stand in awe of others who were supposedly more revered. There is no question that there have been those who have produced breath taking exhibits but what did they have to do with YOU? You were never meant to compare what YOU thought YOU could produce to those highly acclaimed venerated works. YOU are an indelible artistic expression in your own right! YOU have done a magnificent job forming an opinion of yourself as to what it is you THINK you can do and can not do. But, YOU don’t KNOW what you can do. You haven’t done it, yet!!!!!

lipping and sliding double “S”- I—ON-ecstasy

Words are magical mechanisms of artistic pursuit. Each time we speak, we are painting a picture, imbuing an indestructible spirit and evoking an unforgettable emotion. Take the word, Passion, for instance, a seven letter double ‘S’ word, embodies the natural instinctive ‘fire in the belly’ momentum of every individual who has ever experienced the vibratory inspiration. Passion gyrates, pulsates, and vibrates. What color do you see when you hear the word: Passion? Why, RED, of course. {Intense sexual stirrings} Robust pleasure! Without Passion we would all be no more than colorless lifeless cardboard! I love the word, Passion. I like the way it looks, feels, sounds, tastes, along with the illicitly erotic sexually imbued images it invokes. If the two S’s {slipping and sliding in the middle} are any indication of the double x attracting power locked within the word, I suspect I know the reason why human beings are summoned and driven by such undeniable unrelenting magnetic irresistible forces without being able to comprehend its majestic source, much less control its voracious vitality. This untapped undeniable latent bewitching strength is nothing other than creative energy. A gigantic undisturbed silent reservoir of abdicated hypnotic, spell-binding sacred sexual energy lies repressed (hidden) in you waiting to be used at your discretion. It remains locked away just waiti

Although you may think you are in touch with the natural instinctive sexual force that resides within, I beg to differ. You are and have been merely tapping the surface. {Scratching on the window pane} A boiling bubbling explosive volcanic eruption in artistic creative libido lies at the base of your frustration and unrest. Much more unfulfilled, unrefined, savagely induced “ART” impetus lies buried than you are currently aware of. Under the iceberg of discontent, passion moves in undulating waves of subtle unresolved pleasure. This undeniable chaotic sensation can only be experienced, not explained. No explanation will do it justice. You KNOW the feeling of longing and yearning for that which can not be seen or expressed with the five senses. Passion stands alone dismantling all inferior motivations.

Sometimes, on the most bizarre of occasions, and in the rarest of circumstances, it begins to move without your approval, knowledge or consent. Whoa! {Be those RAW occasions.} When the two ‘S’s start to rumble, the “P” begins to solicitously pump, the “A” points it sleeky ‘on target’ antennae, the “O” feels the intoxicating swoon while the “N” slips into go gear, Johnny bar the door. How could anyone possibly remain unmoved? “Behave yourself,” are the last two words it recognizes or responds to. To minutely understand and appreciate the cyclonic starting point of this momentous force can only be explained by returning to our primal roots. We are inherently instinctive savages by nature. We are not refined. We are powerful sexual beings who are electrified lighted magnets. Our personal level of passion depends upon just how much we repress the natural instincts in our lives. In other words, how natural and convenient we are to ourselves and others, leaving out superficial actions. You, me, all are authentic by design! The way in which you choose to express this exquisite authenticity is totally up to you.

The sheer amount of power {motivated sensuality} locked within the word Passion I dare not say. But whether you call it art, music, drama, the written word Passion derives its sacred basis from sex. And, I would say that’s an undoubtedly irresistible force of unequaled unparalleled sizzling sensation that few of us can do without. What does Passion mean to you? Without a moment’s hesitation, you immediately thought of the most thrilling sexual experience you ever encountered. No doubt. SEX is an exclusively erotically created subjective form of Passion imbued with artistic flavor, musical tones, dramatic interludes and spoken ecstasies. Which by the way, is the inexplicable reason why Passion means so many things to so many people. Passion is a decidedly regulated enjoyable practice we all undertake at one time or another by an act of will. ENTHUSIASM is generated by sexual Passion!

We realize without the statement, thereof, that the act of lovemaking is the ultimate creative act of divinity. When engaged in lovemaking, one is seeking the sublime ineffable source. The creation, application, presentation, revelation, and preservation of Passion are the starved elements of a lost art to be rekindled. Sensual Passion and the study thereof belong to all mankind. Passion makes your heart throb and your bottom bob! It is the essence of talent, ability, potential and inborn gifts of sacred decreed measure. Countless wars have been lost and won based upon the ardent pursuit of Passion. Sexual instinct substantiates Passion. No one person possesses a monopoly of talent for or the lack of ability to generate it. Everyone is a sexually imbued passionately motivated inspired creative artist in his own right. You possess a distinctive ‘feature’ that makes you who you are because of the Passion you alone possess. No one else can do what you can do in the exact same way you do it. You have things to do. Great things. It will take all of your self-generating sexually ignited Passion you possess to fulfill those desires.

The vital importance of your artistic contribution to mankind can not be overstated. You have a supreme gift which should be redeemed, recognized and recorded for its own sake. You are currently residing on Earth, not by accident, but for a specifically designated divine disguised purpose. That unique purpose, hidden in you, along with your sensually evoked energetic presence will not go unnoticed. Your life’s story will be told and demonstrated through immense artistic contribution. You represent immeasurable value and laudable merit in the Cosmic divine scheme of things. It’s all a matter of coming to that place where we all can appreciate the sacred messages hidden behind and beyond the unlikely artistic representations. Cosmic in nature, the therapeutic niche, where assumptions are forfeited and predilections are unheard of. Preferences must be discarded for the sake of the indisputable truth of the divine essence to be released freely. {To set free the soul’s captive to follow and embrace unconcerned united course of your chosen destiny.}

Ecstatic Passion encases a temporary form (flesh) for all to behold and interact, vibrating at levels that bring immeasurable pleasure. Bottom line: It is you telling the part of your Passion’s story through your individual creations. PASSION: the healing art of your own personal Cosmic Therapy. Your individually conceived vision, no matter how poorly constructed or elaborately devised, is but a whiff of the exhilarating aroma that points to something spectacular in motion. Through each man’s PASSION, we are allowed the opportunity to expand our horizons. From beginning to end, we are privy to the see into and through the eyes of the rare experiences of the multitudes of unnamed and unnumbered artists.

By using the principles offered through our own self-motivated Passion, we may come to really appreciate, value, and honor the stroke of our own and the other’s exclusive mark. We join with the divine to create what we WILL. Our rigid minds are encouraged to extract, diminish, and explode the outdated molds of habit and status quo, breaking down the prejudiced and selective barriers we maintain. We become fully present when we stop to contemplate the suppleness of each man’s divine purpose demonstrated in his artistic work. If we would but stop long enough to acknowledge divinity’s presence in the ordinary things, we would open ourselves to receive and participate in a life filled to overflowing zeal and unending enthusiasm. An emblematic artistic merging occurs as the onlooker is allowed to ingest the vision of grandeur so wittily covered up. A unified process of celestial osmosis occurs blending the effervescent stream of artistic delight. A reassuring feeling of comprehension takes hold as we, the viewer, along with the other artists embrace the interconnectivity revealed in all things. We stand in humble appreciation as we are reverently permitted to blend with all of creation in the cohesive whole, while gazing into another’s work, instead of breaking them into fragmented biased pieces. We are allowed to declare and celebrate the realization that the artistic work of the man in prison or the homeless man on the street or the crack addict, etc. is endowed with the same sacred magnificence. There are no distinctions, nor sexual preferences.

Passion is the truest reflection of what mankind is attracted to. He/she displays it in panoramic views that interest him the most. Passion manifests as the result of an unquenchable thirst to answer a deeply held mystery of some sort. It could be as simple as why a marriage ended or what to do with a jealousy issue you’ve not been able to resolve. In our mundane artistic daily walks, we are learning how to get over greed, resentment, guilt, bitterness, remorse and a million other human traits. We use our art to exploit these things in us! Sacred Sexuality will not be deterred. If one chooses to release and engage his/her Passion he/she is voluntarily acknowledging that he wants the inner vault of truth to be retrieved and the contents exposed no matter what!

Alternative Health Tips

Naturopathy is Swasha Vritha or the prophylactic or preventive aspect. Ayurveda is the Athura Vritha or Therapy. Both are related sciences.

Daily Routines or Dinacharya, according to Ayurveda

The ideal time to get up is 04.30 AM. This is known as Brahma Muhurtha or the Time of Brahman, the Absolute.After getting up, one should know the condition of the body. Then one should brush one’s teeth and go to toilet for bowel movement. One should brush teeth twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening.

Then one should go in for an Oil Bath. Oil, preferably coconut oil should be used. This oil should be pasted all over the body and one should wait for at least 30 minutes and then take a bath. Cold bath is ideal but for those suffering from diseases hot water bath is good.

Oil bath gives you good sleep. Weakness of the body will disappear. Your body will grow in strength. Your eyes will sparkle. ” Abhyangam Achareth Nithyam ” says Ayurveda ( Daily you should go in for Oil Bath ). But those suffering from indigestion and excess Kapha should not go in for Oil Bath.

Pathya – Diet Control

When Ayurvedic medicines are taken, one should observe Pathya or Diet Control.

The Six Tastes of Ayurveda are – Sweet, bitter, astringent, sour, pungent and salty. Those suffering from Hyperacidity or Ulcer should not take in foods that are Sour or Pungent. This is known as Pathya.For every disease, there are foods that should not be taken in. For people suffering from hea

Now there is a saying in Ayurveda that for one observing Pathya, there is no need for medicine, as negative food is phased out and Spontaneous Cure takes place. Also for one not observing Pathya, as intake of medicines become useless, as negative food devastates his disease.Pathya means the Way to Health. Apathya means taking in the negative food which foster the disease.

Banana – Nature’s Tonic

The Banana is full of vitamins and minerals. It contains iron, phosphorus and vitamins like Niacin and Riboflavin. A big banana can confer more than 200 calories.

The fructose contained in banana turns to energy after intake. Along with protein and starch, it contains minerals like sulphur, iron, magnesium, copper & calcium. There is less fat content in bananas.Bananas will reduce the acidity in blood. It contains Vitamins C, A, B, D & E.

Along with bananas, warm milk should be taken. This is the ideal food for growing children. But then the obese should not take milk along with bananas.As Bananas have Rasayana properties, use of it will keep you young. You can live for months only on bananas.Bananas can be used as medicine for patients with liver complaints and for digestive tract disorders. Also it can be taken by those suffering from Malnutrition and Scurvy. Also for patients suffering from eye and dental diseases. ( as it contains Vitamin A & Cacium ).

Continence or Brahmacharya

By Continence or Brahmacharya, we mean the control of libidinal life. Both Ojas ( Light ) and Veerya ( Virility ) are based on the Seventh Tissue Element, Semen. Avoid the misuse of this great Dhathu, says Ayurveda. Too much indulgence in sex makes you lose this Seventh Tissue Element and this will result in weakness of body. Body ache, headache etc will be the result. Loss of semen adversely affects reversely the other Six Tisssue Elements.

If you observe Brahmacharya ( practise Continence ), improved memory, grapsing power, physical strength, discriminative intellect, mental happiness, increase of Ojas or effulgence on the face etc will be the result. In order to have good health, you have to control sex. But then as pure Brahmacharya is impossible for married men, controlled Brahmacharya or celibacy is advocated.

Insomnia

Lack of sleep is due to many factors – Anxiety, mental tension, over exercise, emotional suffering etc. When Anger and enmity are suppressed, sleeplessness is the result. Constipation, digestive tract disorders, coffee, tea etc will destroy sleep. Thoughts about sleeplessness will only compound the problem. Use of sleeling pills is not ideal. You may have to depend on such pills. And increasing the quantity is asking for trouble. If Alcohol is taken along with pills, there will repercussions.

Avoid beverages like Cola, tea and coffee. And take in less fatty foods. Avoid fried foods. Take only small quantity of food at night. If you have warm milk before going to sleep, if you keep the mind tranquil, you will doze off to slumberland. You should take food 3 hours before going to bed. It will be better if you can hear peaceful music. Reading is also a good habit which will take you to slumberland. You should walk at least half an hour before going to sleep. It will help to digest the food taken. Meditation will give you good sleep.

Constipation

The modern fast food culture is responsible for Constipation. Anxiety, fear, mental tension – all these create Constipation. Naturopaths averr that Constipation is the root cause of all diseases.Some antacids also create Constipation. In certain conditions, water will be absorbed in the Colon and faecal matter may solidify. Such hard stools are difficult to dislodge.Lack of proper timing of food, anxiety, mental problems etc all cause Constipation. Constipation will create back pain, weight in the stomach, headache, loss of appetite etc.

Intake of fruits and vegetables organically grown, 12 glasses of water daily, ensure mental peace, correct bowel movements – all these will cure Constipation

Gas Trouble or Hyperacidity

This is a very common disease. In India, there are very few homes without antacid tablets ! On one side, we take a lot of antacids and on the other take in acidic foods ! Amongst the Six Tastes, that which is Sour, Pungent and Salty foster Hyperacidity.

Fried foods, foods containing Masala, very cold drinks,potato, plantains – all these foster Gas Trouble. Lack of exercise is one of the causative factors. Also working seated for long hours.Mental tensions also foster this disease. It is not what you eat, but it is what eats you that is the cause of this common disease.

Mental pain, thoughts of revenge, fear – all these pave the way for this malady. There is an Emotional Center in the brain. When we have mental upsets, this Emotional Center stimulates the oxintic cells in our stomach to secrete Hyrochloric Acid.Lots of gas going from the rectal tract, indigestion – all these are the symptoms of gas trouble. Naturopaths averr that Constipation is the cause of this disease, nay, for all diseases !

Hurry, Worry and Curry are the main causative factors for this disease. Eating food fast, overeating, foods with masala, sour, pungent, salty foods, pickles, chillies, potato, soda, cola, chilled beer, nictoine, alcohol, very hot foods, chewing gum – all these cause Hyperacidity.Prevention is better than Cure. Avoid the Apathya foods and be healthy !

Contradictory Foods

Contradictory Foods are known in Ayurveda as ” Samyoga Viruddha”. When contradictory foods are taken in, it will increase the Doshic imbalance and becomes the cause of many diseases.Shrimp and Milk, Fish and butter, Sour fruits & Milk – are some examples of Contradictory Foods. They are to be avoided at all costs.

Chicken & butter should not be taken in simultaneously. Honey and ghee in equal quantities also is prohibited in Ayurveda

Colon Hydrotherapy

Naturopathy says that diseases are caused by the accumulation of morbid matter. Natural Hygiene says the cause is Toxemia, or the infusion of toxins into the blood.

One of the methods of cleaning the Colon is Enema or Colon Hydrotherapy.I have been practising Enema for the last 18 years. In 1989, while I was participating in an Exhibition Stall in Trichur ( a 41 day affair ), the nearest stall was a Naturopathy stall and the Chief Naturopath told me that the best way to get rid of Gas trouble was to take 15 light enemas.

I bought an enema can and have been doing this when I have any rectal block. This therapy is effective as we can see putrified faecal matter going out 10 minutes after the enema is administered.This is Jalopasana or Water Therapy or Hydro Therapy. All the ancient cultures advocated Hydro Therapy, as Water has got tremendous medicinal properties. Not only faecal matter, but gas, mucous and toxins go out of the rectal tract.

Fasting Therapy

Fasting Therapy is one of the best therapies. The digestive system gets rest during fasting. ” Lankhanam Paramoushadam ” – Fasting is the best medicine. Water Fasting, Fruit Fasting, Juice fasting — there are many types of fasting. Juice Fasting is superior to Water Fasting as the body is supported nutritionally.

The basic principle of Naturopathy is that Nature has healing power and that the Five Doctors are the Elemental Five -Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether. ( Annam Brahma ). By Annam is not meant Food, but the Five Doctors, the Five Elements. ” The Five Doctors are the best, as the Five Elements are prior to all “, declares the Upanishads. ( Annam hi bhoothanam jyeshtyam, thasmad Sarvoushadam Uchyathe )

Ghee – The True Rasayana

Rasayana Therapy is Rejuvenation Therapy. That which rejuvenates the body is Rasayana. Ghee is considered to be the True Rasayana. All Ayurvedic preparations are based on ghee, I mean, almost all the Rasayanas. Ghee contains Vitamins A E, K D etc. Vitamin E and Vitamin A are anti-oxidants. Diseases are caused by the excessive production of Free Radicals and these two are antidotes to Free Radicals. The famous Chyavan Prash is based on Ghee. It is said that the Rasayanas confer beauty, longevity, intelligence, youthfulness, health etc. Ghee, taken in moderate quantities, will confer these.

Through many vedic books that focus on astrology, individuals are able to gather the true purpose and fundamentals behind this wonder philosophy. Although there are several individuals and scientist that have debated against Vedic Astrology when it comes to the more modern Western Astrology, Vedic Astrology continues to grow in fame.

Ancient philosophers truly believed that the fundamentals of Vedic Astrology were inspired by its creator, who was Brahma. Through Rishis to modern man, this knowledge has been passed down through the ages to its current form. Several thousand years ago Vedic Astrology was created, which followed the ancient India concept of the repeating of time cycles. Prior to being added into written form, Vedic Astrology was taught only in oral form for thousand of years before ever being created into written form.

The entire purpose of learning about Vedic Astrology is to enable individuals the ability to avoid problems before they arise in their life. The idea is simply to avoid any type of danger prior to it becoming real. Many modern day astrologers will use the tools needed in Vedic Astrology to enable them to predict events that might happen within an individuals life. Astrologers who actually use Vedic Astrology are not considered to be fatalists, instead they are considered to simply have the correct and proper tools to be able to point out any useful indications within the life of an individual that could help them prevent certain actions from occurring. When individuals are informed ahead of time of upcoming danger th

There always seems to be the debate of whether or not we are given the ability of free will within our lives and those individuals that do not believe in Vedic Astrology definitely believe there is no such thing as free will. However, individuals that believe in Vedic Astrology know that it is important to be aware of the effects that certain actions can keep us from danger through studying the astrological charts. Anyone who is dedicated as a Vedic astrologer can give other individuals who are sincere with their teaching the guidance that is need to make the most effective changes in their lives for better living.

Vedic Astrology is based on the simple study of the stars and knowing that the various calculations are different than those of Western Astrology. Each of these calculations are adjusted for each Zodiac sign that individuals may be born under. In the more modern Western Astrology, the position of the planets do not effect the Zodiac signs, but instead focus on the seasons. No matter which astrology is used, whether it is Vedic or Western, the focus of the Zodiac signs are twenty-three days apart from each other beginning with the Zodiac sign of Aries. The system of Vedic Astrology is one that allows individuals to know what might happen within their lives and to be able to give them potential remedies to correct the karma that has been placed within their path of life.
