1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,000 Hi everyone, welcome to the Light of Linsejha. 2 00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:14,000 Now that we have gathered enough information and enough knowledge about all the astrological aspects, 3 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:26,000 all the twelve Ascendants, all the twelve zodiac signs, all the 27 nakshatras or constellations and moods of the moon, 4 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:35,000 we need to understand one basic premise, you are none of them. 5 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000 You are not one of the twelve Ascendants. 6 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:43,000 Your soul energy doesn't belong to any of the twelve Ascendants. 7 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000 Neither does it belong to the 27 nakshatras. 8 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:54,000 The soul energy is so beyond all of this play in duality in three dimensions that we exist in. 9 00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:00,000 In any number of dimensions you want to put a figure on, it is so beyond all of this. 10 00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:03,000 It is all of this and more. 11 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,000 Nothing needs to be in an exclusionary form. 12 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:10,000 You don't need to exclude anything or include anything. 13 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,000 These are all just mental concepts. 14 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,000 These are just mind games. 15 00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:17,000 So the soul is far beyond the mind game. 16 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:21,000 This is one reason it cannot understand the mind. 17 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:28,000 You cannot even understand your own mind and let alone you can understand your soul which is beyond the mind. 18 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:39,000 The whole premise of Vedic texts and whatever has been discovered by the ancients of the land of India. 19 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:45,000 One of the basic contradictions is people try to understand God or understand spirituality or understand soul. 20 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:52,000 Well, how can the limited vessel called the mind understand something which is beyond it? 21 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000 It is like the ant on the ground trying to understand the elephant. 22 00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,000 It cannot even see the leg of the elephant properly. 23 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:03,000 Let alone understand the entire elephant. 24 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000 So it is like that. 25 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,000 Your mind is like the ant. 26 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:15,000 And the elephant is all the actual animal or the actual oneness of all that exists. 27 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,000 So just understand that you are not your mind. 28 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000 Your soul is not your mind or the twelve ascendents. 29 00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,000 You can go beyond it. 30 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:32,000 The purpose of understanding astrology and understanding the twelve ascendents is to go beyond it. 31 00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000 It is to get that stretch. 32 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:40,000 How far are you willing and able to stretch? 33 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,000 Both has to be there present. 34 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:51,000 There is to be a willingness and openness of the mind and heart to stretch this a little bit more than what you are born with. 35 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:56,000 Now the issue is most of them won't even be ready to go to their... 36 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:59,000 Check out what their shadow self is. 37 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:06,000 Most of them won't even be ready to go to check out what their obsessions and compulsions are. 38 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 Let alone go to the stretch. 39 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,000 So we keep coming back and getting to the same example. 40 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:18,000 Let's say you want to go to Los Angeles and your starting point is Miami. 41 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:24,000 So you get in the car and you want to drive towards Los Angeles from Miami. 42 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000 You will plot on your GPS in your car the map. 43 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,000 Google maps will give you where you want to go. 44 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:37,000 What the direction to take, which exit, which direction, which freeway number etc. etc. 45 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,000 The entire route it will plot it for you. 46 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:43,000 But if you take the... 47 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:52,000 If your friend is also going to meet you in Los Angeles but she is starting from Seattle. 48 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Going from Seattle to Los Angeles. 49 00:03:56,000 --> 00:04:03,000 Now she will get into her car, plot the map on her car towards Los Angeles and she will start driving. 50 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:07,000 Now she will have a different set of freeways to get into. 51 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:13,000 Different set of exits to take and a different path completely, a different landscape to follow. 52 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:18,000 She will probably come more by all along the Rocky Mountains. 53 00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:24,000 And the one going from Miami will pass through the desert lands of Arizona etc. 54 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:27,000 So you see how the thing changes. 55 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000 The map is the same. 56 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:32,000 Looking at it from the zoomed out point of view. 57 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,000 The country is the same. 58 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,000 The map is the same. 59 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:42,000 If you look from the satellite, you are just on the ground approaching it from different points. 60 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:47,000 So first it is important for you to know the mind itself. 61 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:52,000 That is the main object of Jyothisha or Vedic astrology. 62 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,000 To know where you are. 63 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,000 That's why it's called the light of God. 64 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:01,000 These are all just metaphorical terms. 65 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,000 I mean people can keep talking about God any length of time they desire. 66 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:11,000 So many prophets have come and gone and spoken about in different ways in different lands. 67 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000 Doesn't mean the human mind gets it. 68 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:24,000 The reason why people don't get such things is because they are not first trying to understand their mind and how it works. 69 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,000 Ascendant. 70 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:34,000 All every single one of the 12 ascendants only gives structure and deliberations and the operation of a mind. 71 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,000 What are you obsessing and compulsing over? 72 00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000 What are your cold desires and why? 73 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,000 What is your drive? 74 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,000 Where are your talents? 75 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:50,000 What can you implement as your joy and happiness? 76 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,000 Where are you good at shining? 77 00:05:52,000 --> 00:06:08,000 Unless all these things are known, unless the structure and the way your vehicle in which you have plotted the map to go towards Los Angeles, unless you know your car properly. 78 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:09,000 How is the engine? 79 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,000 What does this work? 80 00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000 Does it have gas? 81 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:21,000 How much of gas do I need to pump and how often is my car in a good shape to drive all that distance? 82 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,000 Is the air in my tires alright? 83 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,000 All of these things. 84 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:31,000 This is I am giving you a metaphorical analogy of knowing what your ascendant is, knowing what the nakshatras are. 85 00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:33,000 The esoteric science is there. 86 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,000 It's like a code. 87 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:43,000 It's like a secret code buried in the snapshot of zodiac sign you are born in ascendants, nakshatras, planets where they are sitting. 88 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:48,000 All of these things which are spoken of in all the earlier podcasts. 89 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:50,000 What is it about? 90 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 What is all this thing really about? 91 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,000 What is this game about? 92 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,000 What am I about? 93 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,000 Find that out first. 94 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,000 Find out where you are. 95 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,000 What kind of a car or a mind it is that you drive? 96 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,000 The soul is the driver. 97 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,000 Remember the mind or the moon has no light of its own. 98 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:14,000 Your brain or your mind after you're dead has nothing in it. 99 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:15,000 It is a blank slate. 100 00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,000 The body is dead and gone. 101 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,000 It's a blank slate. 102 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:21,000 Something animates it. 103 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000 The word anima itself comes from Latin. 104 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,000 It means to animate animal. 105 00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:29,000 All these words come from the same thing. 106 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:37,000 The animating principle of life or the self illuminating principle of life is your soul. 107 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:40,000 That shines through the mind. 108 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,000 You need the mind. 109 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:45,000 You need the brain to operate properly in this dimension. 110 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:49,000 But first you need to understand where you are going with this stuff. 111 00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:50,000 What kind of a car you have? 112 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000 What are you trying to drive here? 113 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,000 What are you trying to achieve and why? 114 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:59,000 What makes you really happy? 115 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:03,000 All of these things need to be checked out as a beginning point. 116 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000 But remember the stretch is about going beyond the ascendance. 117 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:14,000 It's about going beyond the nakshatras because you are not anyone of those. 118 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:20,000 You don't have to be trapped or thinking that this is my thing in life 119 00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:24,000 and this is all I am about and all the doom and gloom and that kind of a thing. 120 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,000 There is no such thing. 121 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:28,000 There is no such thing. 122 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:32,000 You can completely forget about astrology, completely forget about Vedic astrology 123 00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:39,000 or the Vedas or the Upanishads or everything that is to be known as sacred text. 124 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:45,000 There is nothing more sacred than you the witness who is witnessing all of this. 125 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,000 You are the witness. 126 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:51,000 Remember if you are listening to this, reading this or reading anything in the past, 127 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:55,000 all of the stuff is external to you. 128 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,000 If you don't get anything out of it, just remember one thing. 129 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,000 If you are witnessing it, you are not it. 130 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,000 You are just a witness to it. 131 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:08,000 This is one of the lines from the Upanishads also. 132 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:12,000 You can, your soul energy is so multi dimensional. 133 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:20,000 It can merge with anything and think that is me or I am that or I am this or I am that. 134 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:27,000 You can merge your energies or identify with anything but you are far beyond anything 135 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:33,000 that any astrology or any ascendant or anyone on the planets or anyone on the next task 136 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:38,000 can ever even hope to achieve because you are witnessing all of this. 137 00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:44,000 When you study your astrological chart, please study it from the point of you are the witness 138 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:49,000 to what you are embodying in this body and mind in this life time. 139 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,000 It's just like putting on a set of clothes. 140 00:09:52,000 --> 00:10:00,000 This body, this mind, this family, this country, this race, this religion that I am born into is just the clothes. 141 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,000 This bunch of clothes I am wearing for this lifetime and nothing more. 142 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,000 There is nothing more to it. There would be anything more to it. 143 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:16,000 Whatever you are doing in between is just to find your joy. 144 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000 Follow your bliss as I would like to say. 145 00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:21,000 Lovely statement. Follow your bliss. 146 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:30,000 Whatever makes you blissful and when not in 10 years from now, not one week from now, not tomorrow, today. 147 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:38,000 Everything begins today and you are here to find the joys and uncover as much treasures as you want from it. 148 00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:43,000 Just mind yourself and get all the goodies of life. 149 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:47,000 That's what this whole exercise is about, to find the joy. 150 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:53,000 If you are not finding the joy, do something. Do something wild. Listen to a rock music. 151 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:59,000 Listen to heavy metal if you want. Go on a headbanger's ball if you want. 152 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:10,000 One of the things, do anything you want but don't put your head into astrology thinking you will find goodies in terms of who will I marry 153 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,000 or what kind of job I will get or all kinds of this nonsense. 154 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:19,000 It's none of the things of getting things from life. You are not here to get things from life. 155 00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:25,000 You are here to experience more of yourself. That's the way it's always going to play out folks. 156 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,000 It's not going to play out in any other form or fashion. 157 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:34,000 Whatever you are experiencing in your mind, in your physical health, in your external manifestations, 158 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:43,000 in your life that you have already lived is just an experience of yourself as a reflection. 159 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,000 But you are the one who is a witness. You are a witness to everything. 160 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:53,000 Alright. I hope this helps some way to you today.
