The Descending Node of the Moon ( South Node )was known as
Ketu in Vedic Astrology. Ancient seers had given him the
portfolio of Self_Actualisation ( Moksha ). His position in
the 12th ( the house of final emancipation or Moksha ) is
extolled highly by the savants. Along with the spiritual
planets, Jupiter and Saturn, Ketu should be in a good
position in the horoscope for one to attain to the Divine
Crown.

Astrology and the Science of Numbers ( Numerology )
Is the Absolute the Numberless Infinite? Or has the Absolute
any-thing to do with numbers? Well, Pythagorus inclined to
the latter view. Reality, he said , is symbolised by
numbers.
Gem Therapy
Modern scientific research has proved that even secondary
gems increase planetary rays & these can be used for healing
purposes.
Howard Beckman ( http://www.p-g-a.org/) writes " One example
is we have identified obvious beneficial effects of using
white sapphire for increasing planetary rays of Venus from
our own research over many years. The secretary of the P G
A, Mr Richard Shaw Brown, (http://www.agt-gems.com/)through
his 3 decades in this field of planetary gemology has also
proven the efficacy of certain colours of the tourmaline
family for increasing benefic planetary rays of Mercury and
the Sun. "

Symbolism behind Vedic temples
Man has three bodies - physical, astral & causal. The outer
wall of theVedic temple represents the physical body of man.
The inner wall represents the astral body and the innermost
wall represents the Causal body. Deep within these three
bodies is the Self, the Atman who is represented by the
Deity ! The word temple is derived from the Latin word
tempulum, a place where Law and Justice can be
administered. The principle behind the temple, is Know
Thyself ! Am I a god, then? Yes In these pure features I
behold Creative Nature to soul unfold ( Goethe ) In other
words man suffers from three types of illnesses - physical,
mental & spiritual. Holistic Medicine takes the Tripod of
Life - Body, mind and Self into consideration.

Astrology & Yoga Therapy
The root Cause of all Disease - Bhoga or Sensory enjoyments
Bhoga ( enjoyments of the senses ) is Roga ( Disease). It
can only be cured by Yoga ( Divine Alchemy ). All food that
is tasty is detrimental to the body, declares Prakriti
Therapy The food which cometh from Nature, fruits and
vegetables, are alkaline by nature. Maximum health is in an
alkaline body. We can only be healthy if we keep a 80%- 20%
ratio. ( 80% alkalinity & 20% acidity). This means we have
to eat more natural foods & less processed foods ( which are
more or less acidic ). Truly speaking, processed foods,even
though they taste well, are robbers as they rob us of our
natural, vibrant health.

Astrology & Occult Vibratory Chemistry ( Tantra )
The Serpentine Power in individual bodies, the Kundalini,
is the coiled Energy in humans, which rises during
Meditation & Prayer. When She ( Kundalini ), the
miscrocosmic power of the macrocosmic Shakti, rises from
from the Root Chakra & reaches the other Chakras, siddhis or
paranormal powers maniest. Clairvoyance, clairaudience,
distant healing, the ability to see Auras & ultimately
Trikala-jnana ( the power to know Past, Present & future )
all manifest in the aspirant. The aspirant should not be
intoxicated by these siddhis. If he tries to exhibit the
siddhis or paranormal powers, he may not reach the Goal of
Life. Instead he should ignore these powers of the mind &
continue his Tapas till he is liberated.

Books as the source of knowledge The Greek Biblion or the
