“Just as a blazing fire turns wood to ashes, so does the fire of knowledge turn all karma to ashes.”
Bhagavad Gita 4.37
The Science of Light
Vedic Astrology is translated from Sanskrit word "Jyotisha", which means “the science of light”. This refers to the lights outside as stars, planets and luminaries as well as the light within. Jyotisha is considered “the eye of the Vedas”, and aims to develop our inner vision, which would take us towards the path of truth and help us to re-connect with the most powerful light of all – the light of the Ātma, which is translated from Sanskrit to English as soul or spirit.
Even though it seems mystical, it is based on logical principles operating in the nature and cosmos. It is one of the oldest sciences of mankind and in ancient times has reached heights beyond comprehension of a modern man.
