Jyoti¾a Jyoti¾a and Living Enlightenment🔗

Jyoti¾a can help one to read his destiny. But what is actually destiny?

There are only two types of destinies:

The first one is destiny as defined by a dictionary: lived within the boundaries of the ego, with its own expectations, hopes, desires, successes and failures. It is constantly changing. Because it evolves under mind's law, it is mechanical, accidental and coincidental. This 'destiny' is lived in the dimension of the mind, and therefore has no existential reality in itself. It is nothing more than a reproduction of one's past in the present, which conditions the future in a mechanical way.

The other destiny is existential and ultimate; it is the flowering of consciousness into enlightenment. Understand: the only thing predestined in the scheme of life is that man is meant to evolve to reach enlightenment. The rest is just incidental; it happens for no other reason than to teach and mold the being towards seeking enlightenment. Living Enlightenment is all about making conscious choices, free from the unconscious push and pull of the sa¼sk¢ras*.*

The further you wander from your center, the more you lose yourself in your periphery, the more you are unaware and subjected to incidences and accidents. Whereas, when you Live Enlightenment, you are centered, you are within your boundaries, you are aware. You become 'predestined', because your predestination is to reach enlightenment; your destiny is to become more and more aware. Then you become the agent of your destiny, and you move beyond grahas' influences. This is how you come to terms with your karmas.

For that to happen, a simple understanding of the forces at work in you can help clarity manifest in your daily routine. In addition to this, you can follow a couple of guidelines to keep your body healthy with the science of ¡yurveda and raise your energy level with yoga, the use of gemstones, rudr¢k¾a beads, mantra chanting, and a basic knowledge of your psychological tendencies coupled with the ancient Vedic wisdom expressed by the great enlightened Masters.

All these remedies will create lucidity about your mental set-up and support for eventually dropping your conditionings; unclutching from your mind and emotions. It will foster your intelligence and energy to Live Enlightenment.
