Vedic Astrology Lesson 14
The Descending Node of the Moon ( South Node ) was known as Ketu in Vedic
Astrology. Ancient seers had given him the portfolio of Self_Actualisation (
Moksha ). His position in the 12th ( the house of final emancipation or Moksha )
is extolled highly by the savants. Along with the spiritual planets, Jupiter and
Saturn, Ketu should be in a good position in the horoscope for one to attain to
the Divine Crown.

Astrology and the Science of Numbers ( Numerology )
Is the Absolute the Numberless Infinite? Or has the Absolute anything to do with
numbers? Well, Pythagorus inclined to the latter
view. Reality, he said , is symbolised by numbers.
Astrology , Holistic Medicine & Ayurveda
Symbolism behind Vedic temples
Man has three bodies - physical, astral & causal. The outer wall of the Vedic temple represents the physical body of man. The inner wall
represents the astral body and the innermost wall represents them Causal body. Deep within these three bodies is the Self, the Atman
who is represented by the Deity ! The word temple is derived from the Latin word tempulum, a place where Law and Justice can be
administered. The principle behind the temple, is Know Thyself !
Am I a god, then? Yes
In these pure features I behold
Creative Nature to soul unfold ( Goethe )
In other words man suffers from three types of illnesses - physical, mental & spiritual. Holistic Medicine takes the Tripod of Life - Body, mind and Self into consideration.
Vedic Holistic Medicine ( Ayurveda) maintains that not only the physical
factor but the other factors - mental & spiritual play a pivotal
role in the health of the patient.
Astrology & Yoga Therapy
The root Cause of all Disease - Bhoga or Sensory enjoyments Bhoga
( enjoyments of the senses ) is Roga ( Disease). It can only be cured by Yoga ( Divine Alchemy ).
All food that is tasty is detrimental to the body, declares Prakriti Therapy
The food which cometh from Nature, fruits and vegetables,
are alkaline by nature. Maximum health is in an alkaline body. We can only be
healthy if we keep a 80%- 20% ratio. ( 80% alkalinity & 20%
acidity). This means we have to eat more natural foods & less processed
foods ( which are more or less acidic ). Truly speaking, processed foods,even
though they taste well, are robbers as they rob us of our natural, vibrant
health.
Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
The Serpentine Power in individual bodies, the Kundalini, is the coiled
Energy in humans, which rises during Meditation & Prayer.
When She ( Kundalini ), the miscrocosmic power of the macrocosmic Shakti, rises from from the Root Chakra & reaches the other Chakras, siddhis or paranormal powers maniest. Clairvoyance, clairaudience, distant healing, the ability to see Auras & ultimately Trikala-jnana ( the power to know Past, Present & future ) all manifest in the aspirant. The aspirant should not be intoxicated by these siddhis. If he tries to exhibit the siddhis or paranormal powers, he may not reach the Goal of Life. Instead he should ignore these powers of the mind & continue his Tapas till he is liberated.
Books as the source of knowledge
The Greek Biblion or the Sankrit Veda means Knowledge which is represented
by books. Books, therefore, represent the Tree of Knowledge
( the Bodhi Tree ), whose branches all sciences are!
