I have Nabby, Buck in the Dome, Dr. D aka Freemacncheesy, and Stevie who has 
apparently become Willy Tex's understudy to tell me all about myself.

You're good people Michael.  No worries.  I'll do my share to bring you along.  
First we just tighten up on our attributions.   In other words, when you make a
statement, take a moment to see it corresponds to reality or is just some kind 
of emotional release.  We'll get there good buddy.

Maybe you rub elbows with different TM'ers than I did and than I do, but by FAR 
the vast majority of TM'ers I ever knew who were into jyotish were into it for 
two reasons - finding out what kind of good stuff was gone happen, and freaking 
out when they were told something bad was gonna happen and then scrambling 
around to buy whatever kind of nostrum was recommended to negate the bad karma. 


I did it too when I had my chart done, back in 2001. Used all the mantras Brent 
gave me and bought a big ass moonstone since I hadn't the cash for the size 
pearl I was supposed to get. Got it wrapped in silver and wore it night and 
day. Since I didn't die I suppose I could attribute that fact to the remedial 
measures I took.

I don't see it as a matter of belief at all. It's more a question of the 
accuracy with which the chart is interpreted. There are of course bad 
astrologers as well as good ones. I have found astrology most useful as a tool 
for self-understanding. Predictions for the future I have found to be iffy at 
best. And like you I am rather skeptical about preventive measures.

 What's that got to do with astrology? No one has ever demonstrated a link

 There's money in predicting solar flares, can anyone do it with a star chart?

 There are no scientific aspects. I can't see how it makes any sense at all. 
And I used to know how to draw up horoscopes, except I did it the hard way with 
a slide rule and set of ephemeris. All I know is that the Earth isn't the 
centre of the solar system and I can't see why my chart is set at birth rather 
than any time before or after because the stars would be having the same effect 
- unless the planets are into symbolism
 

 I could sit here until doomsday picking holes in it but if it was 
unequivocally effective I wouldn't have to.

 But it just so happens that my jyotish chart indicates that I'll be traveling 
this year due to the exalted Jupiter in conjunction with the lord of
the 12th house in Cancer, the first house.

Also, the sign of Cancer represents the second house of marriage for my 
cousin's daughter, who is represented by the 12th house in my own chart. These 
indicators look auspicious for everyone involved since the benefic Jupiter is 
exalted while in transit on the same sign for the entire year.

So, I should take advantage of this karmic event to get out of San Francisco 
and visit a foreign country.  While over there, I might as well take a side 
trip to Madrid and a little town called Antequera, which just so happens to be 
the namesake of the town where I grew up in the Philippines.   It should be a 
good trip since I'm expecting to travel with my cousin and her husband.

And, NO.  I don't speak fluent Spanish.  I've taken
the language course while in high school.  But I'll bring my Spanish dictionary 
just in case.  Believe it or not, I made a previous trip to France, 
Switzerland, and Italy without knowing how to speak their languages.

If all of the planets align properly, I should be in Seville, Spain on 
September 27, 2014 to attend the wedding.

I don't see it as a matter of belief at all. It's more a question of the 
accuracy with which the chart is interpreted. There are of course bad 
astrologers as well as good ones. I have found astrology most useful as a tool 
for self-understanding. Predictions for the future I have found to be iffy at 
best. And like you I am rather skeptical about preventive measures.

according to the folks down here, it don't matter what you do in life, as long 
as you sincerely give yourself over to Jay-sus before you die. If you do that, 
God will forgive ALL your sins and you get a plum spot in heaven. 

That's what my cousin by marriage Bobby did, he who figured so prominently in 
my story Fat Bitch Doughnuts. As my mother once said of him The Devil ain't 
got no better servant than Bobby!

She said that based mainly on his penchant for cussing, and as momma called it, 
bad cussing - meaning taking the Lord's name in vain and using the f-word. 
Momma takes a very dim view of cussing and somehow believes that bad cussing is 
a sign of influence of the Old Scratch. When she said that about Bobby being 
the Devil's servant, I pointed out to her that our other cousin Tommy and my 
own brother, Momma's oldest son cusses everyday as bad or worse than Bobby. She 
was silent for about 30 seconds until she said Well, I pray for all of 'em 
ever day.


Two weeks before he died, Bobby accepted Jesus and Momma was satisfied he went 
to heaven as a result. I think about it sometimes. I think it would be a fine 
thing to be in heaven since Marshy and Company won't be there, them bein' 
Hindus and all and not believing in Jay-sus. I reckon Marshy is someplace else, 
maybe schmoozing with Hitler whom he admired in life.

I did it too when I had my chart done, back in 2001. Used all the mantras Brent

More likely the planets were used in astrology as crude time markers for 
cycles in nature.  For instance there has been research into recurring 
80 cycles in society which have occurred over centuries. The ancients 
wanted to know when droughts hence famine were likely to occur.

competent astrologer. If not, you might be surprised at the results. I had mine 
done many years ago by Chakrapani, who is a noted LA astrologer. It was 
astonishing how well he had me pegged. It was very illuminating. I have had 
similar positive results from Western astrologers too. The cosmos stamps its 
unique signature on you at birth, I have no doubt about it.

What's that got to do with astrology? No one has ever demonstrated a

In a previous post didn't you indicate that you believed that thoughts

Or that solar flares affect communication devices?

There's money in predicting solar flares, can anyone do it with a star

The claims of astrology are easy to test and have failed resoundingly 
whenever anyone has tried.


For a guy who's into science, you surprise me when you don't see the

There are no scientific aspects. I can't see how it makes any sense at 
all. And I used to know how to draw up horoscopes, except I did it the 
hard way with a slide rule and set of ephemeris. All I know is that 
the Earth isn't the centre of the solar system and I can't see why my 
chart is set at birth rather than any time before or after because the 
stars would be having the same effect - unless the planets are into 
symbolism


I could sit here until doomsday picking holes in it but if it was 
unequivocally effective I wouldn't have to.

You are incorrect. According to most Christians in S.C. and in the

before you die. When you repent you can be saved - once saved, always 
saved. Get a Bible and read it. Get some smarts and learn what you are 
talking about and then get back to us. Thanks.




That's what my cousin by marriage Bobby did, he who figured so 
prominently in my story Fat Bitch Doughnuts. As my mother once said 
of him The Devil ain't got no better servant than Bobby!


She said that based mainly on his penchant for cussing, and as momma 
called it, bad cussing - meaning taking the Lord's name in vain and 
using the f-word. Momma takes a very dim view of cussing and somehow 
believes that bad cussing is a sign of influence of the Old Scratch. 
When she said that about Bobby being the Devil's servant, I pointed 
out to her that our other cousin Tommy and my own brother, Momma's 
oldest son cusses everyday as bad or worse than Bobby. She was silent 
for about 30 seconds until she said Well, I pray for all of 'em ever 
day.


Two weeks before he died, Bobby accepted Jesus and Momma was satisfied 
he went to heaven as a result. I think about it sometimes. I think it 
would be a fine thing to be in heaven since Marshy and Company won't 
be there, them bein' Hindus and all and not believing in Jay-sus. I 
reckon Marshy is someplace else, maybe schmoozing with Hitler whom he 
admired in life.

planets, therefore, indicate the results of previous karma and hence 
there is nothing like fate or destiny in its absolute sense controlling

 The first problem is that the moon's gravitational effect on us is minimal due 
to our small size, it only works on large open bodies of water anyway not small 
things like our heads. What would water moving around in our heads do anyway? 
it won't be worse than bending over - not by a long shot - and that doesn't 
drive me crazy.
 

 But the whole argument would be moot if we had a measurable effect from any 
phase of the moon but we don't.

 The moon doesn't affect human behaviour, it's a myth.
 

 And even if it did it would be due to it's proximity and gravitational 
effects. The other planets are so far away there is a larger pull from lorries

 What's that got to do with astrology? No one has ever demonstrated a link

claims. I convert for evidence.
 

 Or that solar flares affect communication devices?
 

 There's money in predicting solar flares, can anyone do it with a star chart?
 

  More importantly, are you saying that there are phenomenon that we're simply

 The claims of astrology are easy to test and have failed resoundingly whenever

 There are no scientific aspects. I can't see how it makes any sense at all. 
And I used to know how to draw up horoscopes, except I did it the hard way with 
a slide rule and set of ephemeris. All I know is that the Earth isn't the 
centre of the solar system and I can't see why my chart is set at birth rather 
than any time before or after because the stars would be having the same effect 
- unless the planets are into symbolism
 

 I could sit here until doomsday picking holes in it but if it was 
unequivocally effective I wouldn't have to.

Why not ask what would happen if the planets the ancient jyotish-ees couldn't 
see and didn't know existed would suddenly disappear.

In fact JR, I pattern my life and my beliefs after the ancient jyotish-ees who 
I revere and admire. Much like they ignored the existence of real actual 
planets, I choose to ignore jyotish and all such metaphysical clap trap. The 
fact that it was created by ancient Hindoos does not make it anymore appealing 
to me.

MJ, 

 It's possible that Jesus was actually teaching the same concepts that MMY was 
teaching.  The kingdom of God can be translated to Pure Consciousness in TMO 
speak.
 

 When Jesus said during the Last Supper to eat his body and blood in the form 
of bread and wine, he was actually saying that he was and is the Consciousness 
that created the basic elements which constituted the bread and wine.  So, in 
effect, the apostles were eating the body and blood of Jesus in the form of 
bread and wine, although they did not fully understand the significance at that 
time.
 

 Even today, most Christian churches don't understand the significance of the 
Last Supper.
 

 But since you're not a Christian (from what I can gather), it doesn't really 
any difference.  As MMY stated before, facts or information available in the 
world can be interpreted differently depending on one's state of consciousness.

 That's an excellent point.  But one has to remember that events that occur in 
this lifetime can be due to karmas from the past life, from actions in this

 According to my Asrtro-physics teacher, astrology reveals the result of our

influences. Astrology reveals the consequence of our actions which we do not 
remember in this life and are untraceable in this birth, planets, therefore, 
indicate the results of previous karma and hence there is nothing like fate or 
destiny in its absolute sense controlling us. The future is a reflection of the

Share, 

Reproduction was a function of biology and was regulated by the 
society/civilization surrounding its citizens.

In ancient Rome, women and slaves were people who could not exercise free will. 
Women were legally under the rule of their fathers first and husbands later. 
Most slaves were captured in warfare and then later sold. They were usually 
chosen for their ability to perform labor and even if they were household 
slaves they were unable to employ their power of choice because they were 
owned by their master and were totally subservient to the will/choice of 
someone else.  

Most Christians initially came from these groups, although slaves were the 
major population. Most women, especially the high-breds, had no need of 
Christianity since they ruled their households in their husbands name and had 
many slaves. 

Same thing in Islam, where it is still legal to own and use slaves. 
The prefix abd- in all those Arabic names means slave, only in this case, 
slave of Allah in one of his manifest qualities.

MJ,

It's possible that Jesus was actually teaching the same concepts that MMY was 
teaching.  The kingdom of God can be translated to Pure Consciousness in TMO 
speak.

When Jesus said during the Last Supper to eat his body and blood in the form of 
bread and wine, he was actually saying that he was and is the Consciousness 
that created the basic elements which constituted the bread and wine.  So, in 
effect, the apostles were eating the body and blood of Jesus in the form of 
bread and wine, although they did not fully understand the significance at that 
time.

Even today, most Christian churches don't understand the significance of the 
Last Supper.

But since you're not a Christian (from what I can gather), it doesn't really 
any difference.  As MMY stated before, facts or information available in the 
world can be interpreted differently depending on one's state of consciousness.

according to the folks down here, it don't matter what you do in life, as long

God will forgive ALL your sins and you get a plum spot in heaven. 

That's what my cousin by marriage Bobby did, he who figured so prominently in 
my story Fat Bitch Doughnuts. As my mother once said of him
The Devil ain't got no better servant than Bobby!

She said that based mainly on his penchant for cussing, and as momma called it, 
bad cussing - meaning taking the Lord's name in vain and using the f-word. 
Momma takes a very dim view of cussing and somehow believes that bad cussing is 
a sign of influence of the Old Scratch. When she said that about Bobby being 
the Devil's servant, I pointed out to her that our other cousin Tommy and my 
own brother, Momma's oldest son cusses everyday as bad or worse than Bobby. She 
was silent for about
30 seconds until she said Well, I pray for all of 'em ever day.


Two weeks before he died, Bobby accepted Jesus and Momma was satisfied he went 
to heaven as a result. I think about it sometimes. I think it would be a fine 
thing to be in heaven since Marshy and Company won't be there, them bein' 
Hindus and all and not believing in Jay-sus. I reckon Marshy is someplace else, 
maybe schmoozing with Hitler whom he admired in life.

Why won't you just get down on yer knees and pray Jesus for forgiveness. Yer

years ago by Chakrapani, who is a noted LA astrologer. It was astonishing how

Maybe you rub elbows with different TM'ers than I did and than I do, but by FAR 
the vast majority of TM'ers I ever knew who were into jyotish were into it for 
two reasons - finding out what kind of good stuff was gone happen, and freaking 
out when they were told something bad was gonna happen and then scrambling 
around to buy whatever kind of nostrum was recommended to negate the bad karma. 


I did it too when I had my chart done, back in 2001. Used all the mantras Brent 
gave me and bought a big ass moonstone since I hadn't the cash for the size

Share, 

Reproduction was a function of biology and was regulated by the 
society/civilization surrounding its citizens.

In ancient Rome, women and slaves were people who could not exercise free will. 
Women were legally under the rule of their fathers first and husbands later. 
Most slaves were captured in warfare and then later sold. They were usually 
chosen for their ability to perform labor and even if they were household 
slaves they were unable to employ their power of choice because they were 
owned by their master and were totally subservient to the will/choice of 
someone else.  

Most Christians initially came from these groups, although slaves were the 
major population. Most women, especially the high-breds, had no need of 
Christianity since they ruled their households in their husbands name and had 
many slaves. 

Same thing in Islam, where it is still legal to own and use slaves. 
The prefix abd- in all those Arabic names means slave, only in this case, 
slave of Allah in one of his manifest qualities.
