from Karma & Rebirth in Hindu Astrology, by K.N.
Rao - ch. 7
Astrology done as part of sadhana (spiritual practice) does
immense good to the astrologer himself. He sees God's laws working
through the planets of a horoscope, in the dashas and yogas.
In turn, the astrologer knows and shows the quirks and twists
of destiny and the Wheel of Time.
Karmas keep chasing you, they rise and meet you, they walk in
front of you and behind you all the twenty four hours of the
day. A good astrologer can see it through this super-science.
He should improve his own karma first and not become a dollar-pinching
consumerist of our age. Then he should explain to an intelligent
consulter that karmas chase you always, birth after birth.
It is heartening to read in the accounts of those who had 'out
of body' experences that they discovered that kindness was all
that was valued most in life after life. Belief in karma, creating
a stronger belief in rebirth, leads to the improvement in the
quality of life. The message of all studies of scriptures, jyotisha,
and rebirth are two: do charities and believe in kindness.
