Does Vedic Astrology have Universal Validity?:

To achieve this ‘spiritual end’ of receiving ‘the blessings of Isvara‘, through the Remedial Measures of VA [See. 9 of Part I], we will have to develop a comprehensive understanding of the essence of Vedic astrology through a step by step process but without getting into the technicalities and the astronomical & mathematical details of this discipline. This will in all probability be a far easier task than what we might imagine it to be. We may begin by acquainting ourselves with the ‘scope’ of this ancient discipline. As Vedic astrology’s repertoire of Remedial Measures has come to be proven in the course of the last several millennia to have universal validity & utility, it eminently qualifies to be brought within the reach of a wide circle of seekers irrespective of the nature of their religious affiliation. By knowing this truth – that here, we are dealing with the universally valid law of ‘karma‘ and the time-tested Remedial Measures for minimizing the negative-repercussions of this ‘karma‘ upon our individual lives – it becomes all the easier for us to open ourselves up to the vast benefits of these Remedial Measures, coming down to us, from the Vedic Rishis.
