In advancing teenage, our generation which could read English well and was brought up on Coleridge, Wordsworth, Shelley, Keats and Byron, have stored in our minds with the memories of the communal orgies of 1946-47, the dawn of independence on the night of 14/15 August 1947. We, the children of freedom fighters, had kept awake till midnight when came the sonorous voice of Omkarnath Thakur heralding Indian Independence with Vande Mataram.

Arun Jaitley’s speech in Rajya Sabha asking the prime minister how can conditions be laid on agitators was brilliant incisive and confused and exposed the government: what will be the size of protest, the duration of protest etc. raised some fundamental democratic principles. It shows how ludicrous can be the government stand to justify the action against Anna Hazare. It shows thickening confusion, chaotic thinking.

Some true gurus give some brief instructions to their disciples in almost short terse way and they carry lot of meaning. Some ofthese are spoken words and some those strange looking acts which amuse us.That has been and is an eternal tradition of India’s spiritual life which we generally do not share. Someone asked me if I shared it ever. I said that I had done it many times and on the insistence of a lawyer of the Supreme Court, who is now a high court judge, I wrote out series of articles which I shaped into my book “Yogis, Destiny and The Wheel of Time ”.
The difference between this book of mine and other similar books is that I speak here not merely of my guruji but also of some of the many great saints I have met from time to time.
Prithvi mudra
A woman saint one of whose disciples was weighed down by too many worldly problems as most of Hindi householder are, was instructed to do prithvi mudra during his meditation sitting on padmasana or siddhasana. Instead of the gyana mudra, in this mudra you join the thumb and the ring finger. Those who know something about mudras, call it prithvi mudra and say that it energises them to attend to their problems with a fresh mind. After hearing from me, many have done it and have reported positive results if it is done for thirty minutes every day.
Such are the secrets of an eternal tradition more effective than the self improvement books available in the market in plenty.
Genuine supernormal experience
If you have had a genuine experience which is supernormal and which has no other explanation, be it the siddhi of a mahatma or an astrological prediction, remember it always and keep reminding you about it to keep your faith in God and the supernormal. This is necessary these days more because of the swirling tides of agnosticism and atheism.

Dear uncle,
Hope you are fine. I am back in Chennai after a breif visit to Cairo and Egypt. Though I had got bored of politics, I was astonished when I heard about the death of Benzir Bhutto and also faintly recalled your prediction in Oct. I am reproducing the same below :
"The clearest danger is between now and 23 March 2008 in the Chara dasha of Karka and the antardasha of Kumbha. From Kumbha Atmakaraka, Saturn falls in the eighth house and receives the aspect of Mars the Putrakaraka and Sun Gnathikaraka (Jaimini aspect) .
It can have two meanings. The first that she attains some big position and then gets attacked fatally or the reverse of it". Fantatsic- analysis to give even this much of prediction !! Hats off to you again.
By the way I also want to personally acknowledge one prediction you gave when I came with my son. Based on my son's horoscope you had asked me if I got any increase in salary or promotion !! Yes today i have recd increase in salary - massive close to 2 lacs per annum effective Oct 07. I am amazed at your prediction coming out true for me especially when nobody has anything much nice to say about my horosocpe. Though you had also asked if we have purchsed a house in Chennaithe fact is I am on the look out vigorouly and Good willing your prediction comes out true- I may succeed in buying one. Real Estate price are unimaginable here.
I personally thank you for giving time to me when I came to Delhi. My sons recognizes your face appearing on the PC or NP and says "Hey Balu thatha's friend with long beard like Rabindranath Tagore- I like him !!. When I showed him your prediction about Benazir- He too was stunned and asked me if there is any element of truth in astology ? What should I say ? I have asked him to read Eternal Indian article which I read so eagerly and rate too !!
My guruji’s advice to me was not to give up astrology as early as 1975 when I was getting disgusted with people wanting to see the fulfilment all their worldly wishes whatever their desires and karmas. That is the bane of the modern consumerist India more because of which fraudulent astrologers are multiplying. But my guruji’s advice was that one good prediction which appears unlikely at the time it is given is enough for an intelligent person to retain his or her belief in the supernormal. It also strengthens belief in the great astrological tradition of India---the great living tradition.
The letter quoted from the second daughter of a late colleague of mine in the service I retired from pleased me as she picked up some astrology when she was in Delhi nearly twenty years ago and is aware of my strong opinion against fraudulent remedial measures prescribed by astrologers. She has been like a sweet niece to me.
If her son’s horoscope could give an indication about her own career what does it mean ? Think about it.
