Stellar Influence...

Verse 1.12.12 (YK Pr):
* In today's verse, SB is teaching the stellar influences on each and every one's life. It is a science, hard to understand.
* The time a person is born, and this child is controlled by his karma. We might give birth, but the child's karma cannot be changed.
* For Maharaj Parikshit (MP), at this birth itself, by this stellar science, his life was foretold.
* Whatever is going to happen in our life, good or bad, it is just time which is separating us. We don't even have full control on our own body. But to make matter into spirit is our KC.
* But many times, we make spirit into matter because of our ignorance. So how we use the resources we have, how we utilize today our free will, will decide/alter our future tomorrow.
* MP was cursed to die in 7 days. But he sat down and listened to SB from Sukadeva Goswami, so this bad karma became the best good karma MP could ask for.
* Although this stellar science is a very good science, it is better to have faith on Krishna, chant 16 rounds then Krishna will protect us. Eg: SBSST, gave up his astrological science when he realized that Bhakti was much higher than this science.
