Gurunathar’s Divine Message ~ Ashwini Pooja ~ 07-05-2005

One person mentally raised a doubt, “When we start a good work should we always check to see if the time is auspicious?”.

Generally, starting good work at good times has become the practice. I would say there is nothing wrong with this. Those days, good works were started during period of Kuligan and bad or inauspicious were started during periods of Raghu. This practice has now changed. Some periods during the day have been set aside for good jobs and some for inauspicious ones. Whichever the method followed, when a person performs his duties untiringly, any time is auspicious. Such a person has realized that ‘work is worship’. When he starts a good work, he does not attach importance to the auspiciousness of time. It is his mental state which is important. This is so whether the purpose of his work is personal or for the common good of others. However, tradition makes us abide by the rule of looking for a good time and this is not wrong.

This leads to another question, “Does performing work at auspicious times always yield good results?”.

This is not necessary. As mentioned before, the mental state of a person is important. It is God’s law that ‘anything done with good intention will yield good results’. Hence, looking for an auspicious time is not required. Tradition is the only justification for this practice. I reiterate that for those who believe in hard work and for those who believe in God any time is an auspicious time. This is my conclusion.

Gurunathar’s Divine Message ~ Ashwini Pooja ~ 09-04-2005

I would like to dispel the confusion in the mind of a Person here. The question arises, that if a Person’s birth date, his horoscope and death date are decided before he is even born, and if he dies before his time has come, is this too decided beforehand?

I shall answer this here. Before a Person is born, the balance of his karma decides his birth horoscope. Along with his completing the karma of his previous birth the date and time of his death are decided. Man however does not conform only to this destiny. In this birth he can add to his karma or lessen it. Sometimes, good or bad karma can determine a premature death. If we can keep an account of the karma of this birth we can also predict such a premature death.

If you perform good karma, life can go smoothly without difficulties. If there is a rebirth, the new horoscope will be of good standing.
