Download or read book Secrets of Planets written by Saket Shah and published by Saket Shah. This book was released on 2021-10-31 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dear Reader, The whole process of spiritual practice during the initial steps consists of neutralising karma and gaining poise. The inequalities of past karma manifest as the inequalities of the mentality, personality and behaviour of man. Behaviour is only a response of the person to environment in terms of his own habit or past karma. This response also forms the basis of his future karma. Every step is subject to correction until poise is gained, “poise in food, expression and behaviour” is the path of yoga according to the Bhagavad Gita. Every planet in every sign in house represents our past life karma. To understand that first we need to understand the planets in astrology. This book is all about describing planets in astrology to give indepth knowledge and wisdom to the person to experience and learn fundamentals of astrology. Regards, Saket Shah

Download or read book The Human Cosmos written by Jo Marchant and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Best Book of 2020 NPR A Best Book of 2020 The Economist A Top Ten Best Science Book of 2020 Smithsonian A Best Science & Technology Book of 2020 Library Journal A Must-Read Book to Escape the Chaos of 2020 Newsweek Starred review Booklist Starred review Publishers Weekly An historically unprecedented disconnect between humanity and the heavens has opened. Jo Marchant's book can begin to heal it. For at least 20,000 years, we have led not just an earthly existence but a cosmic one. Celestial cycles drove every aspect of our daily lives. Our innate relationship with the stars shaped who we are--our art, religious beliefs, social status, scientific advances, and even our biology. But over the last few centuries we have separated ourselves from the universe that surrounds us. It's a disconnect with a dire cost. Our relationship to the stars and planets has moved from one of awe, wonder and superstition to one where technology is king--the cosmos is now explored through data on our screens, not by the naked eye observing the natural world. Indeed, in most countries modern light pollution obscures much of the night sky from view. Jo Marchant's spellbinding parade of the ways different cultures celebrated the majesty and mysteries of the night sky is a journey to the most awe inspiring view you can ever see--looking up on a clear dark night. That experience and the thoughts it has engendered have radically shaped human civilization across millennia. The cosmos is the source of our greatest creativity in art, in science, in life. To show us how, Jo Marchant takes us to the Hall of the Bulls in the caves at Lascaux in France, and to the summer solstice at a 5,000-year-old tomb at New Grange in Ireland. We discover Chumash cosmology and visit medieval monks grappling with the nature of time and Tahitian sailors navigating by the stars. We discover how light reveals the chemical composition of the sun, and we are with Einstein as he works out that space and time are one and the same. A four-billion-year-old meteor inspires a search for extraterrestrial life. The cosmically liberating, summary revelation is that star-gazing made us human.
