Destiny - Is Destiny Changeable?
The Law of Karma- Cause and Effect Theory- How Valid Is It?
Destiny is divided into four parts. Whenever we wish to have a close look at destiny through any means available to mankind, we face a situation that tells:
[A] Completely Change-able destiny --- Completely predictable
[B] Partially Change-able destiny --- Partially Predictable
[C] Partially Un-change-able destiny --- Partially Unpredictable
[D] Completely Un-Change-able destiny --- Completely Unpredictable
The first of these ‘Completely change-able destiny’ is well covered by astrological principles and can be easily predicted by a reasonably good astrologer. This part is generally considered to be the first phase of our entire life called destined/ordained life.
The second phase is covered by Karma or our actions, which is further subdivided into three phases mainly.
The first is called Sanchita Karma, or the bagful of Karma we have always been carrying from our very first incarnation. This is decided by the creator and not by the created (animals/insects/plants/trees/humans etc). Whatever may be our action we can never change this part of Karma which is either going to increase or remain what we already have. A positive act will not allow any addition to what we already have and a negative act will add on to this already heavy bag of karma. This is dealt by the factor of completely un-change-able destiny or completely unpredictable part.
Karma is secondly in effect by means of what we know as Poorva-Karma or our past actions. Since we already know what could be the reason we have a surplus of Karma, we can try and mitigate this effect by doing good and nullifying either partially or completely in the current position in life. This thus covers completely change-able, partially change-able and partially unchanged-able part of our Karmas already accumulated due to our past actions.
Next come the situation known as Aagama karma or those effects, which we are going to accumulate due to our actions in future (from the very next moment of where we are currently placed in life). This is governed by factors called completely unchangeable, partially change-able, and partially unchangeable part of destiny. The Aagama Karma never get influenced by any action other than divine intervention to be completely changed. Again our intent plays a very importantly role there too, because intent cannot work into the retrogression of events but is always the reason for any act, Karma that is to manifest in future.
The third phase that governs Karma is called Vaastu, or one’s location geographically and how/what we face. It is well said by somebody that, “You are heading towards a wall and the door is elsewhere, in another direction. If you do not change your direction, you are bound to hit the wall.” Karma can be controlled by occupying a place devoid of stress zones, clutter, negative vibrations, abusive languages uttered places, poor hygiene, poor-light, and must live in good and moving energy availability zones. Utterances mean a lot, hence we must utter all positive and then only we accumulate lesser of Karma that is going to be a big-block in our evolutionary path. This can off course, change a person’s Aagama Karma and change it partially, only and not completely. Vaastu can hence, have an influence on our partially changeable and partially unchangeable destiny angles only.
The last but not the least is governed by the factor called “Divine intervention." When somebody is submerged with the divine energies and is always in a kind of a spiritual dance then there is no worry whatsoever. This is the only zone where one can deal with any zone in destiny with only one factor that everything becomes completely change-able due to divine influence/intervention. Hence we have the Mantras, Stuthi, Shlokaas, Yantras, Tantra, Stotrams, Kaavya, Sahitya, Sangeeta, Bhajan, Japa, Tapa, Dhyaana and Bhakthi. These are tools which help us mitigate what is already ordained as bad or negative for us and help us endure at this physical plane.
