________________ Thereafter, the two of us became the best of friends. He invited me to his home and we had many philosophical discussions about astrology. Through the course of our friendship, I noticed a change in the astrologer's nature, in that he became less self-important and prideful and he became more interested in seeking the truth, along with me. Among the things that I learned and discussed with the astrologer was how each of the twelve signs of the zodiac have two important stars which have a unique color, light, and vibratory effect upon the Earth and its life. Together with the ten pranic or energy powers of the body, of which five are inner powers and five are outer powers, there are fifty basic color, heat, light and sound vibrations in the world. Also, since the moon shows us sixteen different faces each month, it contributes to the visible and invisible changes of the material world as well as changes in our moods and energy levels. Furthermore, owing to the universal fact that all things are related through color and sound vibration, the basic color of the Earth is symbolized by “3” or the sound formed by “A-U-M”. Although I cannot tell all things that I learned from this great astrologer, his belief that the humán condition is intimately and mysteriously affected by the casual laws of universal matter and energy, has remained with me always and influences my decisions constantly in coping with the real world. 52 Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
