00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
Good morning ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Progressive Youth and Progressive Human Being Channel.

2
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:15,000
Where we speak about ideas that are progressive to the human being.

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:19,000
Now this is not meant as just a philosophical talk,

4
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:26,000
although philosophies, what's the basis of your fundamental existence as a soul on this planet

5
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:37,000
from your entire lifetime from your life, the time you take the first breath till you finish with the last one.

6
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:48,000
So anyway, these ideas are supposed to be progressive in the sense how you guide your life on a day to day basis.

7
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:58,000
The focus as I get these messages is more on a day to day basis, but using all the context of Vedic teaching,

8
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:13,000
the Vedic Upanishads, the Vedas themselves and whatever I have learned through decades of my interest and in all esoteric sciences.

9
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:19,000
So, having said, let's get to the topic of today.

10
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:34,000
What came through was the innate nature of a human being, the innate nature of things, innate nature of birds, of plants, of animals, of energy itself.

11
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I speak in terms of energy because that's the kind of perceiving and sensing and receiving I get.

12
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:45,000
So, innate nature, what is innate nature of a human being?

13
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:54,000
Well, human being is very different from all the rest of the elements of life on this planet.

14
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:03,000
For example, the rocks and the trees and the birds and the ocean, river, water, air, fire, all these elements which are there,

15
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:11,000
as well as all the birds, different kind of birds that exist, different kind of plants that exist, different kind of animals, mammals,

16
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:17,000
or non-mammal, reptilian, whatever energies are there, they hold.

17
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Something has an innate nature to this. Let's just speak about innate nature of, I'll give you an example, like a bird.

18
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:35,000
A bird, if you see, always wants to be standing on the perch or on the edge of something.

19
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:43,000
The innate nature of a bird is to fly. It does not have any wings, sorry, it does have wings.

20
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:52,000
It does not have any arms and legs like mammalian human beings do.

21
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:59,000
An innate nature of the tiger or the lion as a mammal is to hunt.

22
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:07,000
It's to look for prey. It's to go stealthily looking for prey. Its eyes are always looking for the next prey.

23
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:13,000
That's the innate nature and animals, as we all know very well, are driven by instinct.

24
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:22,000
So they will only do, or they only know and do whatever their innate nature propels them towards.

25
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:34,000
This is spoken of very widely in the Vedic text. What is an innate nature of something? Whatever it is, the innate nature of a rock is just to be still.

26
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:49,000
It is just to sit there through years and eons of time unmoving, slowly getting eroded by the weather patterns, by all the elements of nature like the wind, the fire, the air, the water, etc.

27
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:55,000
But it just sits there. It's the most tamasic in nature.

28
00:03:55,000 --> 00:04:10,000
So the innate nature of the Satva Rajasthamas that we spoke of in the previous podcast shows up in every single life existence around us.

29
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:18,000
In human beings, it tends to play out if especially people are playing it very unconscious game.

30
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:25,000
It's just a game folks and how you're playing it depends upon the human choice.

31
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:30,000
This is where the choice and the free will element of the human being shows up very predominantly.

32
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:39,000
It has been and it will continue to be through all this civilization, past civilization, future civilizations and so on.

33
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:45,000
I'm just giving you here the fundamental principle as it is laid out in the Vedic text.

34
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,000
The innate nature is what you're driven to do.

35
00:04:49,000 --> 00:05:05,000
It's from the time you wake up you're just driven to do that particular thing or take that particular action or think in those particular lines or like we discussed in case of birds or animals or all these moving sentient beings.

36
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:09,000
It is driven by the innate nature to fly.

37
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,000
Birds want to fly all the time.

38
00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:19,000
They always sit on the edge, they always sit on the ledge of a building or the branch of a tree where they can fly out.

39
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:23,000
They are not so much interested in walking although they can walk slowly.

40
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,000
But the bird always wants to fly.

41
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:31,000
Its confidence and its innate nature is always in its wings.

42
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000
It always wants to be on the edge.

43
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:40,000
It always wants to be able to take off into the open space, the open air.

44
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:48,000
Open spaces are what the birds crave because that's where they shine the maximum.

45
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:52,000
Everything in its innate nature tends to shine in that aspect.

46
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:58,000
A tiger or a lion, if you keep it locked up in a cage in a zoo, it does not feel its innate nature.

47
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:06,000
If it's out in the open savanna of Africa, it feels its innate nature because it needs to prowl.

48
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:12,000
It needs to hunt, it needs to find a prey to prowl and hunt and feed upon.

49
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:15,000
That's all is its innate nature.

50
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,000
It's nothing else.

51
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:27,000
And these innate nature, if you want to understand it more, we have to dive into the Satvarajas and Tamas part of existence itself.

52
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:33,000
Remember, it's not just astrology, it's just innate nature of everything else that is all around.

53
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:42,000
So that being said, how does the human free will choice and what innate nature they are driven operate as?

54
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Just see that for a minute here.

55
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:53,000
So innate nature of humans as told by astrology is the story of the 12th sentence and what is guiding.

56
00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:09,000
So the 12 houses of the sun is from Aries to Pisces, each one being ruled by a certain Lord or a certain planet is what drives the basic tendency of the person.

57
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:22,000
The mind as the moon as we have examined before in other podcast is basically the nakshatras, the 27 lunar mansions or the 27 modes of the moon.

58
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:25,000
The moon is a very moody creature.

59
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
So it fluctuates a lot.

60
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:40,000
It just keeps going widely between different tendencies and different propensities and different desires and different wants to do, need to have that kind of an energy.

61
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:49,000
So the mind is always fluctuating, which is colored by all these 27 types of nakshatras or constellations.

62
00:07:49,000 --> 00:08:07,000
That being said, you are always operating as an innate nature in the ascendant wherever you are born and the rising sign, the time you came and took your first breath here was declared as the time of birth.

63
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:26,000
And that time of birth is linked as a universal clock to your ascendant and ascendant meaning it is in a particular sun sign or in a particular zodiac as well as it is in a particular constellation or the aspect of the moon.

64
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:38,000
So what it wants to play out that will be the innate nature as regards what a human will do left to themselves without them taking any conscious action.

65
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:44,000
Remember, it's all about consciousness and conscious action, conscious awareness of these things.

66
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:49,000
I'm putting this podcast out there to create this awareness out there.

67
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:58,000
Many people are unaware of this science that exists in a way that can be used in a practical way daily life.

68
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:05,000
One has to understand one's own innate choices in order to move past it.

69
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:11,000
Again, we come back to the same example of if you don't know where you are, how do you know where you want to go?

70
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:20,000
You will get there if you're going from Miami to Los Angeles, that's one GPS plot you're going to do on your car.

71
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Whereas if you're going to go from Seattle to Los Angeles, there will be completely different path.

72
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,000
You can't choose the same path.

73
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,000
This is why paths are unique for soul evolution for every single one.

74
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:36,000
Every single one has a unique soul path.

75
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,000
There is no one path to truth.

76
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,000
There are infinite number of ways to get to where you want to go.

77
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:52,000
Even the Vedic texts are full of this teaching that there are multiple number of paths you want to get to your personal truth.

78
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,000
It's always personal.

79
00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:00,000
The way you will access it is through your ascendant knowing where you stand first.

80
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:08,000
This whole access what we are talking about in this entire series of these podcast are about knowing where you are first.

81
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:13,000
If you don't know where you are, wherever you want to get to will become a fuzzy picture.

82
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,000
It will become abstract.

83
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:21,000
It will become like I know where I want to get to but I don't know quite how to get there.

84
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000
It's very fuzzy.

85
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,000
It's very foggy.

86
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:29,000
I can't relate to it or I can't see the clear picture here.

87
00:10:29,000 --> 00:10:40,000
We humans always tend to work through, figure out, analyze, dissect and move into clarity in our life.

88
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,000
What we work for is a clarity.

89
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:49,000
From confusion to clarity, this is the journey of the human soul.

90
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:58,000
We get more and more clearer and clearer and clearer as years go along, as our relationship change, as we grow and mature, as we become older,

91
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,000
as we grow into 50, 60, 70 years old.

92
00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:07,000
This things seem to mature but it mature only with age.

93
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:13,000
They mature with age and or they mature with conscious awareness.

94
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:20,000
Now let's talk about the new energies that are coming in and the new generation of human beings that are coming on the planet.

95
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,000
The younger ones.

96
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,000
Where is that going?

97
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:24,000
How is it affecting them?

98
00:11:24,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Well, the new ones will start this awareness process much before the traditional planetary maturity age that we spoke of in earlier podcast.

99
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:48,000
For example, if Mars matures between 26 and 38, 28 and 31 years old or something like that, for the new ones, they will start maturing much earlier.

100
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:57,000
That's the evolution which is ramping up and going at an exponential pace and will continue to in the generations to come.

101
00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:06,000
In the generation which already is as teenagers, as young men and women and their children and their grandchildren and so forth.

102
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,000
It's a very exponential pace of energetic evolution.

103
00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:20,000
So it will not just depend upon ascendant anymore, it will not just depend upon your Rahu Ketu or Uranus Neptune Pluto or any of this.

104
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:35,000
The reason being there is something cosmically shifting for Earth and there is something cosmically shifted and is continuing to every day as Earth absorbs all of this, the physical Earth and everything embodied on it.

105
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:40,000
So this innate nature is important to understand as the starting point.

106
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000
Everything is driven towards innate nature first.

107
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:49,000
That's the starting point for every soul from the astrological ascendant perspective also.

108
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,000
But how does it relate to you?

109
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:54,000
How does it relate to where is listening to this?

110
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,000
What are you going to do with your life next?

111
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,000
What's the next step?

112
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,000
What you must do next?

113
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:06,000
That's where you must see the innate nature first.

114
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:07,000
What is my nature first?

115
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,000
Am I drawn to the painting first?

116
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:13,000
Am I drawn to cooking or creating a dish first?

117
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:17,000
Am I drawn to reading or communicating first?

118
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:30,000
Because some are born communicators, some are born teachers, some are born healers, some are born doctors, some are born into what they want to do with mind and reasoning and logic.

119
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:36,000
Those are the ones who might become administrators, some might want to ground the energy.

120
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:45,000
So the innate nature is the propensity of the ascendant along with its nakshatra or constellation.

121
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000
But where is the free choice in this?

122
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,000
Well, that's where it gets really interesting, isn't it?

123
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:55,000
The free choice is whether you want to act from your ascendant.

124
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,000
That will be the natural tendency like the bird sitting on a ledge.

125
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:08,000
That will be the natural tendency, the ascendant zodiac sign plus the ascendant nakshatra or constellation.

126
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:10,000
That will be the default.

127
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,000
It's the default value of a human soul born in taking a body.

128
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:24,000
But where it goes from there, depending upon how they consciously involve themselves with all these kinds of sciences,

129
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:29,000
it takes an old soul for them to even start having an interest in all these things.

130
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:38,000
For others, it's just like, okay, let me find the next pizza or the next fancy job or the next fancy partner in life and get on with the show.

131
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:40,000
That's not the way it works.

132
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:47,000
If it has to work properly, you need to align yourself with your ascendant in the moon first.

133
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:53,000
You need to align yourself with the energies that you are unconsciously driven by without doing anything.

134
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:57,000
You get up in the morning and you're not thinking about any of this stuff.

135
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:00,000
You say, I want to go and do this first.

136
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,000
I feel like doing this or I feel like doing this.

137
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,000
Well, who is the one feeling?

138
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:14,000
The one feeling is the mind, the ego and the one driven by the soul path is the one who is the ascendant.

139
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,000
This zodiac sign.

140
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:25,000
So you will color your life and you will color your professions, jobs, relationships with these two fundamental points of as a starting point.

141
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,000
These are just starting points, folks.

142
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,000
These are not ultimate.

143
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:33,000
Now this is where the human choice becomes really interesting because you have a choice.

144
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,000
You have a choice to act like, let's say where your Mars is.

145
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:43,000
Once you know all these things, you have a choice whether you want to act from your Rahul or the north node of the moon.

146
00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:47,000
You can become obsessed about that particular aspect of life.

147
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:53,000
You have a choice to become like Jupiter and learn and teach some area of your life.

148
00:15:53,000 --> 00:16:01,000
You might have a choice to become like Saturn and become dry and become a rebel and want to achieve material success in something.

149
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,000
That's a choice.

150
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Once you know the esoteric knowledge and the high vibrational energy of the Vedic texts, what's the next step?

151
00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,000
What can it help you with?

152
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:17,000
Well, it can help you with your choosing.

153
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:20,000
It puts you in a constant energy of choosing.

154
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:27,000
The trouble that we humans have, myself included, is the choice we have to make each and every single day.

155
00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Each and every single day a choice is given to you.

156
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:34,000
You are not a helpless creature in the arms of anything.

157
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,000
You are not helpless at all.

158
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,000
You are born very powerful.

159
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:46,000
What is told though is it the story is told is something else in the popular narrative of the fates of the world.

160
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:56,000
But you are born absolutely free, absolutely gorgeous, absolutely rock star in this world.

161
00:16:56,000 --> 00:17:08,000
But that rock star person inside you is full of choice and full of making conscious choices, not unconscious choices folks.

162
00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,000
You can't do anything being unconscious.

163
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:21,000
All of these teaching, all of the Vedas, all of the things, fates that are there, everybody can tell you 20,000 things that have been masters who have come and gone on this earth.

164
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:31,000
If you are to buy the Indian philosophy, there have been even 10 avatars of Vishnu come and gone or 9 avatars, 10s one is still pending.

165
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:39,000
So all of these things if you had to take even gods have come here in their forms and taught and gone.

166
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:44,000
One might think why is still this humanity stuck in this dumb mode?

167
00:17:44,000 --> 00:18:00,000
Well, if you are not following the basic rules of how this esoteric knowledge plays out and not making conscious choices, that would be the first step, conscious choices, not unconsciously driven person.

168
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:07,000
That's the basic place where I even focus my work with astrology for example.

169
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:14,000
I tell them who you are first, how you work, what ticks for you and what doesn't tick for you.

170
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:21,000
What you do with it is quite another matter, isn't it? Just like everything else and it's a choice to be made every single day.

171
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:33,000
So learn about your innate nature first, above everything, with whatever knowledge you have, with everything that you want to implement it in your life in practical terms.

172
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:41,000
Or just to learn about yourself, not to maybe use something.

173
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:47,000
The concept is to use and abuse and misuse is quite another, it's very narrow minded approach of a human.

174
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:53,000
That's just for this life, that's just for this time of between birth and death.

175
00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:01,000
How does it go in the collective? How does it go into this broader context of life on earth?

176
00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:06,000
So that's not what we are talking about here. In this one we just spoke of innate nature.

177
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:12,000
You have one, find out what it is, work with it, don't resist it.

178
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:28,000
If you want to make a choice, make it consciously, deliberately, with intent, with a complete focus and obsession about finding about who you are and what your real choices in life are.

179
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:42,000
Okay, take care and there was quite a bit of energy there. Take care, be safe and we will talk about something else in the coming podcast. Be safe.
