Autobiography Chapter 16, Part 2: Where free-will ends and destiny begins

Yogananda Podcast

This episode covers the next part of chapter 16:
“A child is born on that day and at that hour when...”
to
“... secured and unless the remedial agent is worn next to the skin.”

Summary:
Cian joins us again as Sri Yukteswar and Paramahansa Yogananda further explore astrological science starting with natal charts and horoscopes. This opened up the concept of destiny, free will and personal responsibility, the concept of spiritual amnesia, and the importance of being in tune with God. We referenced the Second Coming of Christ as Well as God Talks with Arjuna: Bhagavad Gita to further understand these complex topics. We also discussed the “certain plant combinations” (such as vibhuti – sacred ash) referenced by Sri Yukteswar, the use of metals and jewels in astrology, and the role of an astrological bangle in mitigating negative forces.
