Superstition is to religion what astrology is to astronomy; the mad daughter of a wise mother


How many of you believe in astrology? & how many of your life revolve around it..???? Its so strange when I see and hear certain things...and more when I see people's faith in it. I also happened to be at one of such place and the guy said ...I have lot of struggle in life in career...:) & I think any ambitious person will have to struggle...as one will keep trying to reach high :D. I didn't felt anything...then he said...no peace of mind ...but then through out I will have enough money...house etc...c'mon...I think its all in one's belief...& what one's priority is...! As a child I always believed in 'Karma' (the deed) & rest falls in place accordingly.

'Do not worry about the future for it is not yet come. Live each day in the present and make it beautiful'. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined
The stars never lie, but the astrologs lie about the stars
Look what MK Gandhi says: I know nothing of the science of astrology and I consider it to be a science, if it is a science, of doubtful value, to be severely left alone by those who have any faith Posted by Picasa

Hmmmm Just switch on ur TV set & see aastha at noon.
There is a program which teaches u what is astrology is all about
Don maine to yahi dekha hai ki kuch specific career stream wale log jismein uncertainty abt future is more like business, filmwalahas, cricketers, politicians inpe jyada bharosa karte hain.

Janti ho jab logon ko success aur failure ka koi valid reason nahin dikhta tabhi wo karmaa wali philosophy se vimukh ho kar aisi baton ke prati akarshit hote hain!

Ab astrology as a subject kitna scientific hai is pe to main koi comment nahin karoonga kyunki meri itni jaankari nahin hai par meri dharna yahi rahi hai ki aage ki baat jaankar main apne aap ko poorvagrah se grasit nahin karna chahta. Uparwala phal de na de apne effort apne goals pe bane rehna chahiye!

Astrology.....hmmmm
i personally dont believe in it...but have seen few ppl who dont even leave their houses without making them self sure abt wht their stars have to say for them ....lolz

The only thing i've read abt it is:

"If the people were a little more ignorant, astrology would flourish - if a little more enlightened, religion would perish"
