Location: Somewhere in the Mountains of Western NC | Thank you Neel,
You said that "the Kundali can state that this person is very spiritual and shall have intense spiritual liking"....I guess that is what I meant as well when I said that it was a spiritual thing because if a person knew this at a very young age then that person say would be a great candidate for studying and practicing to be a Yogi (not saying that anyone couldn't because of their Kundali not being in favor of) but because of the person's kundali stating that he/she had an intense spiritual liking would be more apt to stay on a spiritual path in this lifetime and the Kundali would be very useful. The reason I say this is because so many people get on the path and then decide later its not where they should be. If we had this information in advance, then I think it would be beneficial for someone to live their life in a way that was meant for them rather than trying be something that wasn't say natural for them. I'm sure that in the olden' days say thousands of years ago this was how they determined who was going to be a Yogi in the family and who was not. As for having a computer program...yea, right. Personally, I feel it's really a lost art as far as determining the Kundali and Astrology and I am very cautious about who I receive that kind of information from.
My husband's family priest told his Mother that he was suppose to be a Yogi....she however, couldn't part with her favorite son, but left him in the temple on and off for several months over a period of years and he had a very special relationship with his Guru. He did however, come back home to live his life and then later to find me here in America:~) I am very lucky to have Satyam as my husband - he's a very special person. He has this really exeptional voice and can sing. The priest's always makes his sing Bhajans when we go to the temple.
Take care,
Cyndi |

Cyndi - >>a good year for Chef's<< Really? My daughter is a cook who will be going to school soon to train as a chef. She will be happy to hear this!
This is what my really, really good Chinese friend and Chef told me when I was visiting his restaurant last. Now, as far as getting the cards read..thats another story. In general, yes, this is the Chinese Traditional New Year meaning for the Year of the Rooster. So perhaps she has more in favor for her in studying "real hard" at becoming a chef simply because of doing during this year. The working "really hard" is part of the terrain too as far as this year goes too!! Reason being because Roosters work really hard at gathering food - in fact that is all they do is peck for food, might be too much for us humans to deal with, LOL!!!! I only want to work real hard at my Yoga practice because that Standing Separate Leg Head to Knee posture is bothering me and I'm trying to get there!! |

Dear Thushara:
Where are you in India my dear? I am coming there in June and would be very interested in meeting you.
And, that is why I like Brother Bay Guy, who is now singing below stars.

Im not in India Kulkarnn., Im in SL., But my mother is planning to visit Buddhagaya, Lumbini and some other places in India .. Errrr…. Sort of pilgrimage I should say .(She has mastrered Pali, Sanskrit, Indian History and buddhism) ..... I thought of taking a vacation, go with her and involved in some yoga workshops while she does her things.. Otherwise its so boring.. But everything depends on my work schedule.. Its quite pressurizing these days…  Where are you going to be? In kerala ??

Location: Somewhere in the Mountains of Western NC | Lumbini is not in India anymore...it's in Nepal. Satyam (Sam) was born in Lumbini. I wouldn't go to that district right now...Nepal is in a serious crisis. In fact, near that district just yesterday, the Maoist broke over 150 rebel prisoners out of jail, and it was a big mess. I really want to go to Nepal, but not while this is going on. Too much fighting going on. But I do say Hail to the King!! - I hope he can bring some peace. |

| Thushara:
If you are going to Bodhagaya in the June/July timeframe, I am able to join you. Also, Nepal side excluding the Lumbini. I shall be in Pune/Kerala/Bombay/NorthIndia/everywhere.

Huh??? Okay, I admit this...I'm totally stumped and need some assistance in trying to figure this out. I understand the Bhajan family part:~) .....and I think I understand the Satyam part and the H meaning him, If that is the case the U would be me....the Shivam (S) and the Sundaram is making me crazy and I have a feeling that I'm totally wiped out here....Help me understand this puleezzee, LOL!
Cyndi - who is totally humbled and dumbfounded Did I mention that I am a proud to be blonde too, LOL!!!!!!

Location: Somewhere in the Mountains of Western NC | Namaste` Neel, This is so interesting...I finally spoke with Satyam today, I'm out of town and he was working all day. Guess what?? This is the story of how he and his brothers got their name. Satyam was named first by his Mother. Then later 2 more brothers came into the family. One day the entire family visited a Yogi in his ashram. This Yogi told his Mother and Father to name the 2 other brothers Sundaram (we call him Suman) and Shivam. Shivam died when he was 4 years old from Malaria. Seems like little Shivam was an interesting little character. He used to take everything off his Mother's alter. He would then sit on it telling his Mother to do my puja - I'm a God. Okay, back to that other meaning....I know that Shivam means Master Soul, higher than truth. Satyam means truth, and Sundaram means Uttam - so beautiful than can only be imagined..another words you can imagine it so beautiful but it can't be seen. The only thing I see is that you knew something about my family?? Well?? Is there something else I should know about?? Cyndi - who thinks there is an Indian story/epic about 3 brothers behind all of this. |

| Dear Sister Cyndi:
Satyam means your husband, Sundaram means you, the beautiful, and Shivam means your child son. Now, since you told the real story, let me tell you, I am that Shivam = Neelakantha (Neel short name) Kulkarni. My parents prayed to Lord Shiva and I was born within 9 months.
Brother

| OK CyndiBahin:
tat purushaaya vidmahe mahaadevaaya dheemahi tanno rudrah prachodayaat.
I know that Purusha (Universal Soul), I meditated on that Enormous God Mahaadeva, may that Rudrah (with awesome form) inspire me.
Kristina sounds like little Krishna who might be naughty.

I was looking into astrological services, and was wondering what anyone here thought.
Any feedback please.

What is the source of this? Krishna Das sings a lovely version of it.
