'A perfect science'

AFTER THE UGC announcement that they are introducing the courses in astrology in universities, a large number of people have expressed their grave concern about this decision in this newspaper. They have cited all sorts of distortions to debunk astrology. As usual they have commended Prof. Stephen Hawking, eminent British physicist, for debunking astrology. In fact, critics are mostly relying on the experiments of forecasts made on the basis of the western astrologers.

To establish the scientific character of the Indian system of astrology I started the Baba Ji magazine in English in 1981 and in Hindi in 1992. These are published every month since then. In these magazines forecasts about countries and prominent leaders of the important countries of the world are recorded. In each issue the important events of the countries are compared with the forecasts recorded in the Baba Ji.

The predictions fulfilled include election of four Presidents of the U.S., the Prime Ministers and the Presidents of India, a large number of earthquakes, calamities occurring in the countries, military operations, change of governments, assassinations, etc. A few latest instances are:

Bangladesh occupation of Indian territory (April 15, 2001)

Covering forecast - ``At 11-45 hours on March 1, 2001 I hereby reveal that a cosmic writ has been issued that some territory of India will be usurped or occupied by some other country or its people or even refugees between March 25 and April 23, 2001. There is no saving element.'' (Volume 212 of the Baba Ji released on March 1, 2001).

Earthquake in Gujarat (January 26, 2001)

Covering forecast - ``India - The planetary configurations reveal that within about one month from December 25, 2000 some explosions, fires and violence may be feared. Some calamity like earthquake cannot be ruled out.'' (Volume 210 of the Baba Ji released on December 14, 2000).

``A strange tragedy is possible on January 26, 2001. Around 10- 00 a.m. this news will cause much frustration. This will be the time to pray which may reduce the impact but the tragedy cannot be averted. It shall take place on January 26, 2001 around 9-25 a.m. (Volume 73 of the Baba Ji (Hindi) released on January 7, 2001).

Election of George Bush as U.S. President (December, 2000)

Covering forecast - ``At 12-05 hours on October 1, 2000 I hereby reveal the cosmic writ that George Bush Junior will be elected on November 7, 2000 and become the President of the U.S. Congratulation in anticipation.'' (Violume 208 of the Baba Ji released on October 4, 2000)

Military rule in Pakistan (October 12, 1999)

Covering forecast - ``Pakistan - The planetary configurations reveal that the entire government is likely to be sacked between September 10 and December 8, 1999. The government will not be able to pay adequate attention to its responsibilities. Some sort of set-back to the government is almost certain before November 8, 1999. Ultimately the military may be compelled to take over the administration.'' (Volume 196 of the Baba Ji released on September 12, 1999).

It is not correct to say that astrology is a series of untested assumptions. In volume 100 of the Baba Ji released in September, 1989 I predicted that there will be following nine major events in the last month of the century and after ten years each of the prediction came true.

Period around the last month of the 20th Century - Predictions

295. Earthquake explosions, mining disasters and fires in the public places are feared.

296. Violence is likely to escalate suddenly.

297. Foreign elements will play very forceful role in creating disorder in the country.

298. Exchange of fire with some foreign country cannot be ruled out.

299. The U.K. and Japan may get annoyed with India and express their open dissatisfaction.

300. India may be involved in some sort of misadventure in foreign affairs.

301. The government will suffer and some of its important members may be distressed or sacked or pass away.

302. Some trade or commercial agreement may run into hot water and may be threatened to be scrapped.

303. Some important ladies of the land will face most challenging developments and may suffer or distressed.

An offer

The scientists from all over the world are requested to check the forecasts made in 289 volumes of the Baba Ji and the covering events and may decide whether thousands of accurate predictions could be made without a scientific base. Further I offer myself to reveal several important past events of any healthy living eminent person of social status who may not be known to me if his correct birth data are given to me. I also offer to reveal some important events expected in the near future of some countries of mutual choice. I will give the prediction supported by the scientific astrological principles. This will help them to understand the scientific character of the astrology. I am sure my prediction will be fulfilled to their satisfaction and they will realise that astrology is a perfect science and not a farce. I shall complete the job within one month on receipt of the demand of any important recognised scientific organisation of the world.
