The Aftermaths of visiting an ancient ruin. A visit to ruins. Ghosts of the ancient past and the frightful events thereafter. Lost memory. A real life story and a Vedic Jyotiśa Perspective.

The monuments from the ancient past lure a large number of tourist from all round the

 world. People love visiting the ancient ruins. Some people are thrilled at the mere mention of such places. The romanticism and thrill of seeing an ancient structure is bewildering for some. People also get attracted to more thrilling experiences like the Catacombs of Paris, the
prison of Alcataraz or Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia.
However, there is a hidden problem with all these ancient structures. These structures have been the domains of old and powerful entities. These places and structures have been witness to many dreadful incidents as
well. The incidents with their intensity and ghastliness remain in the form of energy at that respective place. The problem with energy is that, the energy is neither created and it is never destroyed. It just changes into different forms. These ruins hold concentrated dreadful
power zones that have gained power because of the long time factor and intensity of the incidents. These negative energies are like contagious virus that can inflict the weaker neurological reflexes. They can even possess people, without even a single hint.
I have found that
these ruins show remarkable variation in EM meters. In the tests performed by us, we have found changes in Natural EM fields at such places.
So, it is in my habit to warn people visiting such places, about the aftermaths they may face from such encounters (Though lot of it is in
friendly tone). I will not claim that everybody who visits such places suffers from such things, but precautions are necessary. The incident I am going to narrate is a frightful experience of a young female who underwent many problems after her visit to such a ruin. The place
she visited is very near to Alwar. It is known as Bhangarh and considered an abode of many powerful spirits who died on a single night.
Please read my other narration to get an idea about Bhangarh.
This female use to visit me regularly for consultations and was about to get
married to the love of her life. During one such consultation, I felt that her behavior was very different.
There is a usual approach and decency, which is observed in India if we happen to visit an astrologer. Leaning on the table and using profane words during conversation is
a taboo if we are talking about the meeting with an astrologer. I was aware of her behavior from our previous meetings and these sudden behavioral changes were unexpected.
I also have doubts that some negative personality or entity is overpowering her own individuality. On
enquiry, I found that this female recently visited a ruin situated near Alwar. This aroused my curiosity and I felt something wrong has happened with her.
I told her to visit a particular temple where this problem can be cured. It was a routine thing and I forgot about it.
Later
during the late evening hours, two three people came to my house looking for me. I was not planning to meet them, as I do not see horoscopes after Sunset. They informed the people in the house that they are there because of a problem with the female who met me on the same day.
They were confused and informed me that right after the visit to that temple, the female has lost her memory. She is feeling dizzy and remembers nothing. This was not alarming as there was no medical condition. However, it was important to inform her relatives (She was living
alone in town) to visit her. Her father was informed aptly and he reached the placed on the next very day. He also paid a visit to my place on the second day.
His daughter accompanied him, but I could clearly see the symptoms mentioned in Ayruveda classics. She was suffering from
Bhooto-unmad and her eyes were fixed on top. She was not present there, despite of her bodily presence. When I asked her something, she started having convulsions and then immediately she felt asleep. I told her father to take her to temple again.
Her father took her there, but
her condition was not curable.
Then her father took her back to her hometown. In the meanwhile, her fiancée was searching for some Shaman or tantric who can cure her. Their search ended in Ajmer where a man was able to cure her.
The man who cured her was a Muslim. He informed
them on the first meeting that the female has visited a ruin and that a zinn has taken her under his control. They were informed that he was planning to kill her. (This was right because during my earlier meeting with her, she informed me that she wanted to kill herself).
He just
did some rituals and then gave them a folded piece of paper. They were informed to put that paper under a heavy rock on the side of the road. They followed the instructions and she was cured thereafter.
She recovered but forgot the thirteen days in which the Jinn influenced her.
I wanted to ask her few questions and so I was able to interview her when she visited me again.
I asked her about our meeting but she could not remember it. She was also very bewildered when I told her about her reaction when she came to my office. She felt amused and perplexed
at the same time.
Let us see the same incident under the light of Vedic astrology.
The underworld is ruled by Mars, Rahu, Ketu, afflicted Moon, 8th, 6th house and eighth house lord. Vayu and Jal rasis have special say in this matter.
She is born with Gemini ascendant (Vayu rāśi)
and Moon (Jal gṛha) is placed in Gandānt ṇakśatra. Ketu is near to moon. This is a bad combination for Āyu as well as such affliction. Moon is of Krishna Pakśa and afflicted by association and Gandānt.
Lord of the sixth house is Mars and is placed in own house. The Badhakeś
for this ascendant is Jupiter and is aspected by Mars.
Mahadaśa lord is Venus and is with Rahu (8th house). The antar is of Rahu and pratyantar was of ketu. The house of underworld is peculiarly strong with Venus and Rahu.
The lord of eighth house is exalted in D-9 with Rahu and
Mars combined and watching the ascendant.
These combinations indicate Bhoota bādhā, which happened with her. One needs to apply these combinations in combined manner to come to a conclusion.
So next time you are planning to visit a ruin just be very careful. It is good to
avoid places of gruesome history. There is no good in it and you will never know about the affliction if you are not careful enough.

🔴 Remedies for strī śrāpa (Curses from the female power) 🔱

Strī śrāpa manifests in life when we have misbehaved with women or strī in our previous or this incarnation. Every strī is an expansion of Devi bhava and every puruṣā is an extension of śiva ṭatva. Women who suffer


at the hand of male counterpart have karmic debts of bad behaviour with males and vice versa.
It is not necessary that the other women should be your wife, she can be anyone; may be a sister, a mother or daughter. In all forms; women related issues are expansion of strī śrāpa.

One thing which someone needs to understand is that all this backfire is generated by his own karmic deeds. Nobody else is responsible for the same.
This usually happens when Venus and Moon are under affliction. So the best remedy is to seek Devi to remove the curse. Usually

Ṃahalaxmi is invoked to remove troubles from Venus however, there are other effective remedies as well.
🔺 Chanting of Srisukta (Without sankalp, nyas etc.) and offering flowers, dhūpa, chandan, ṇaivedya and lamp to Devi. Paṃcopacāra offerings on every Friday. This should be

continued for as long as possible.
🔺 Chanting of Sri lalitāsahastranāma (Without nyāsa, dik Bandhan etc.) and offering Paṃcopacāra with 1000 petals for 1000 names. Each flower or flower petal for each name. Champak and Red hibiscus flowers should be used. This should be done

A sample vastu report/ Because many people have queries. This is how we do it.

SHALYA PRAŚNA AND GṚHA PRAŚNA
This is Gruha Nadi Prasna in which we invoke our ishta devtas and Sthan devtas and ask them about the property or Gruha in question. This is a very sophisticated divine


process and it tells us about hidden things which cannot be seen otherwise. Please note that this process does not cater to what you think or believe, it actually caters to what is going to happen devoid of any submissive thoughts towards your wishes or aspirations.

Poojas before conducting Praśna
After the Navgrahas Pooja and chakra Pooja Praśna are casted with different ascendants. With the blessings of divine I will try to decipher what is been asked.

The Praśna indicates that there is shalya or some kind of deposit under the NW

section of the plot. Please dig at least 2.5 ft for foundation. Anything like coal, or dried objects in NW section should be removed. Vastu Pooja is required on the plot before construction or during foundation.
As the Ārūḍha is aspected by a benefic graha there are good chances

for prosperity especially through woman folk. As we see further keeping the name of your wife in this plot’s paper is good for you.
Please also follow the remedies as mentioned in the end of the report.
The elderly females in the family should be careful with their health when

How do remedies work? Gemstones/ yantrās /Effectiveness / examples / astrological causes

Remedies for karmic debts can work effectively but they have to be exercised in certain manner. For example in case of certain rogā, the medicine cannot be given in raw form while in others


medicine should only be given in raw form only.

Therefore, the modus operandi of remedies is very important.
The quantity of japa, Pooja, homam, ḍeepa etc. has to be decided for their effectiveness. For example, a childless couple suffering from Sarpa dośa cannot have a child

by mere lighting a lamp in front of ṇagas. In other cases where case is small, the remedies are also small. Some remedies are expensive and strong but they have to be followed in same manner. Some remedies requires expert tantric etc. without which they cannot be done. The ten

Mahāvidhya requires a proper initiate or sadhak of mahāvidhya which is rare to find. Only he/she can solve the problem.

Mantras taken from book have no power either because they are nailed or because they lack the power of the Guru or initiate who lives with the mantra. That

power is transferred to student when the mantra is whispered in his/her ears. The mantra, homam, prayers etc requires expert mantraśastri or tantric who can do the Poojas. Ordinary purohits are not aware of the proper ritualistic procedure so their Poojas might not work.

How do gemstones affect us? What do granthas say about gemstones and their relation to planets ? How can you change destiny with gemstones? Effects of stones.

🦜 Gemstones affect human psyche but it is not a mathematical model. Since human psyche is prone to variability,


emotional variations and paranormal effects, gemstones may or may not show similar effects on all human beings. So effects of gemstones cannot be quantified.
🦜 Gemstones are mentioned in many ancient granthas, their effects enumerated, however only primary gemstones and

subsidiary stones are mentioned. They do not work based on lagna, ninth or fifth lord only. For analysis the whole horoscope has to be analysed at a very deep level to understand how they effect a person. Despite of all this, clarity, quality and the psyche of the person can

change the effects. Most of the gemstones in market are treated, cultured or changed from the natural order. They do not affect a person.
🦜 Synthetics are for beauty and not effects and gemstones like opal, white sapphire, firoza, are not mentioned in classics. Five gems are

considered mahāratna (Ruby, Diamond, Emerald, nīlamaṇi and pearl are mahāratna). Gomedaka, Coral, Cats eye and Yellow topaz (puṣparāga, Gem of Jupiter) are called Uparatnas.
🦜 Body pains, effects on relations like husband, wife, and children have nothing to do with effects of

Śanaiścara: The Judge

Śanaiścara means walking or moving slowly. He is the son of Chaya of Sun. Chaya always falls on the opposite side of light, so he is ṭāmas. However, he is not ordinary child, he is the child of most luminous graha Sun. In Praśna, he rules Ṇakśatra


Ṃahāsutra. His beeja is Yama and Tatwa is Vayu. The son of Vayu Sri Ānjaneya is the one, he is most afraid of. Sri Ānjaneya is the embodiment of truth and virtue and he rules the Vayu and hence Saturn is afraid of him. Saturn has the power to see each and everything because he

moves slowly. If you are going in a Ferrari, you will not be able to observe anything in path, only a person walking with slow speed can have the clear visual observation. So he walks slowly, writing down everything and hence controls the karmic flow. He is a judge who has every

proof.
He has a brother known as Yama but he is a reflection of his own brother and hence rules death. He has two sons and both are extremely malefic and they have the power to afflict the prana. One can retard the flow and other can stop it. A great secret lays in his brother

and him and how they control the yamas of the day. He is ruled by the varṇa “Pa” in the “Pavarga”.
Saturn rules Steel and Iron and hence Modern world can see the strongest effect of Saturn. Saturn is a Ṭamsik Graha and hence it can increase the ṭāmas inside the body. To kill

The common understanding of propaganda is that it is intended to brainwash the masses. Supposedly, people get exposed to the same message repeatedly and over time come to believe in whatever nonsense authoritarians want them to believe /1

And yet authoritarians often broadcast silly, unpersuasive propaganda.

Political scientist Haifeng Huang writes that the purpose of propaganda is not to brainwash people, but to instill fear in them /2


When people are bombarded with propaganda everywhere they look, they are reminded of the strength of the regime.

The vast amount of resources authoritarians spend to display their message in every corner of the public square is a costly demonstration of their power /3

In fact, the overt silliness of authoritarian propaganda is part of the point. Propaganda is designed to be silly so that people can instantly recognize it when they see it


Propaganda is intended to instill fear in people, not brainwash them.

The message is: You might not believe in pro-regime values or attitudes. But we will make sure you are too frightened to do anything about it.

The ten points of the Nuremberg Code
1) The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential.

2) The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the good of society, unprocurable by other methods or means of study, and not random and unnecessary in nature. 2/n

3) The experiment should be so designed and based on the results of animal experimentation and a knowledge of the natural history of the disease or other problem under study that the anticipated results will justify the performance of the experiment. 3/n

4) The experiment should be so conducted as to avoid all unnecessary physical and mental suffering and injury. 4/n

5) No experiment should be conducted where there is an a priori reason to believe that death or disabling injury will occur; except, perhaps, in those experiments where the experimental physicians also serve as subjects. 5/n

Wow, Morgan McSweeney again, Rachel Riley, SFFN, Center for Countering Digital Hate, Imran Ahmed, JLM, BoD, Angela Eagle, Tracy-Ann Oberman, Lisa Nandy, Steve Reed, Jon Cruddas, Trevor Chinn, Martin Taylor, Lord Ian Austin and Mark Lewis. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut 24 tweet🧵

Morgan McSweeney, Keir Starmer’s chief of staff, launched the organisation that now runs SFFN.
The CEO Imran Ahmed worked closely with a number of Labour figures involved in the campaign to remove Jeremy as leader.

Rachel Riley is listed as patron. https://t.co/nGY5QrwBD0


SFFN claims that it has been “a project of the Center For Countering Digital Hate” since 4 May 2020. The relationship between the two organisations, however, appears to date back far longer. And crucially, CCDH is linked to a number of figures on the Labour right. #LabourLeaks

Center for Countering Digital Hate registered at Companies House on 19 Oct 2018, the organisation’s only director was Morgan McSweeney – Labour leader Keir Starmer’s chief of staff. McSweeney was also the campaign manager for Liz Kendall’s leadership bid. #LabourLeaks #StarmerOut

Sir Keir - along with his chief of staff, Morgan McSweeney - held his first meeting with the Jewish Labour Movement (JLM). Deliberately used the “anti-Semitism” crisis as a pretext to vilify and then expel a leading pro-Corbyn activist in Brighton and Hove

🧵 @DianeLangberg wrote about NDAs in Christian environments, noting “An NDA is an agreement to hide something. In the cases I have encountered it has always been an agreement to exercise power over and hide sin.... [it is] unlike our Lord.”
1/

NDAs are traditionally “non-disclosure” - don’t talk about specific X. Often in church/ministry cases - they’re overly broad - don’t talk abt *anything* re: your employment

but also may include

“non-disparagement” - don’t say anything negative about us EVEN IF IT IS TRUE
2/

Numerous articles have described the use of NDAs in Christian environments and the conflict with principles described in the very faith supposedly being promoted. I’m linking them here then I’ll offer my 20-year lawyer and victim of silencing (gag order) take on the practice.
3/

“Silence of the sheep” (2018) from @emlybelz described how the conference of catholic bishops has now banned NDAs in abuse cases but how some churches and Christian orgs still use them without

Later in 2018, @scotmcknight discussed NDAs after the Bill Hybels sex abuse scandal, noting that often the stronger party is implicated in sin because the whole reason for the NDA is bc they know that something is wrong and they don’t want it

LEEDS LEADS CLIMATE BREAKDOWN

8 hours and 1000 flawed arguments and biased procedures later, Leeds City Plans Panel voted 9-5 for airport expansion and the false promises of economic growth.
For “what Leeds needs is a premier-league football club and a premier-league airport”
🧵


1/ There was a lot of "I do care about climate change, BUT" – followed by a lot of blah blah. Blah blah economic growth. Blah blah connectivity. Blah blah competitiveness. Blah blah Manchester. Blah blah Westminster. Blah blah offsetting. Blah blah electric planes. Blah blah blah

2/ Also a lot of "I do have sympathy for residents suffering from planes flying over their roofs at night, BUT” - followed by more blah blah.
One councillor kindly offered his advice: “the way to less noise is more planes”. Right, Sherlock. Want to try that in your backyard?🤦‍♂️

3/ The true sympathies were revealed at the end. The Panel's priority was not the well-being of those living under the flight path, nor the lives and livelihoods of threatened by climate breakdown. Their priority was a bigger, noisier airport, with a terminal in bronze-champagne.

4/ First declaring your sympathy for people’s suffering and then supporting a development that directly aggravates their suffering, is a proper kick in the face for those suffering the consequences. Like first declaring a climate emergency and then aggravating climate breakdown.

#TodayInHistory Ram Prasad Bismil,Ashfaqullah Khan and Roshan Singh are hanged in 1927, as they give up their life for the cause of freedom and inspire many a revolutionary. #LestWeForget


Shahjahanpur was a hub of revolution during the freedom struggle. Most of the revolutioaries in the North, were from this town. And among them, the most famous were two friends, whom destiny would bring together- Ram Prasad Bismil and Ashfaqullah Khan.

Ashfaqullah Khan was born at the turn of the 20th century on October 22, while Bismil was born 3 years earlier on June 11, in the same town. Both of them were excellent writers in Urdu and Hindi.

Both of them would come together under the Hindustan Republican Association, not to mention the fact that Ashfaq was an admirer of Bismil’s poetry, and became close friends with him on that account.

And both these men were hanged on the same date, December 19, 1927 for their involvement in the Kakori event. Two men from different religions, different backgrounds, yet destiny would bring them together.

An interesting set of games that I've been vaguely interested in since I was a kid, after seeing one at a friend's house and never being able to find it again, was the BATTLES IN A DISTANT DESERT/BATTLES ON DISTANT PLANETS series.


These are turn-based wargames for windows 3.x, sharing the same engine.
Battles in a Distant Desert is from 1992, and is based on the first Iraq war (Desert Storm)


and Battles on Distant Planets is from 1991, and takes place in SPACE!
I'm pretty sure this is the one I played as a kid.


They've got 3 options to play with:
* Player vs. Player
* Player vs. Computer
* Computer vs. Computer

So it's a 0-2 player game!


They also did a DOS strategy game called "STARDATE 2140.2: GALACTIC CONQUEST" in 1990, but it seems to be lost.
All the games share an experimental AI system based on neural networks.

📈 ~12000 vistis
☑️ 109 transactions
💰 353€ profit (285 after tax)

I have spent 1.5 months on this app. You can make more $ in 2 days.

🤷‍♂️


I'm still happy that I launched a paid app bcs it involved extra work:

- backend for processing payments (+ permissions, webhooks, etc)
- integration with payment processor
- UI for license activation in Electron
- machine activation limit
- autoupdates
- mailgun emails

etc.

These things seemed super scary at first. I always thought it was way too much work and something would break. But I'm glad I persisted. So far the only problem I have is that mailgun is not delivering the license keys to certain domains like https://t.co/6Bqn0FUYXo etc. 👌

1/ So here is a thread on how I turned $32,000 into $1.2m and back to pretty much zero (once taxes are paid).

Just note, I am not bitter or salty in any way at all, the last 2 years have been an amazing ride - travelled the world, been wealthy, been poor.

2/ Dec '16, my advertising agency folded, I had a little bit of money left and I put $32k into Bitcoin and Ether. As it started to go up I diversified into everything, Monero, Dash, this that, any crap - even Ripplecoin. Everything just kept going up.

3/ By March I think I had around $300k and $500k by the summer. I used to take 25% out but towards the end of the summer I got greedy and put it all back in and by December it was $1.2m.

4/ Thinking I was an absolute genius I decided to start a bunch of businesses. As silly as it sounds I had this goal of making $5m as I wanted to buy Bedford Town Football Club and get them in the league, and as Crypto was going up forever I needed 6 months.

5/ So:
- Trading (income 1)
- Podcast (income 2)
- Mining (income 3)
- Mining pool (income 4)
- Consulting (income 5)

Dear fellow musicians, performers, technicians etc. Here’s a thread about how our lives are going to change re touring/working in the EU in 50 days time. Think of it as a kind of Bad News Advent calendar. Here goes 1/

First things first, you’ll need a passport with at least 6 months left on it. And you’ll need full travel/third party/health insurance, since if you get ill or have an accident every penny of your care will have to be paid for 2/

To work or do a gig you’re going to need a work visa, just like you do for the USA. But here’s the thing. Work permits & visas and the conditions attached are a matter not for the EU but for the member states themselves 3/

Yes, every member state controls who comes in and who doesn’t and what the rules will be for work and residency. It’s almost as if the Brexiters have been lying about this ALL ALONG. EU members CONTROL THEIR OWN BORDERS 4/

So you’ll need to get a work permit for every country you’re intending to work or gig in and the rules are often different, as are the rules on eg taxation of that work (eg Spain has a withholding tax, France does not) 5/
