"शायद ये वक़्त हमसे कोई चाल चल गया"

[aashufta-sar]

Jagjit singh was so right when he sang "Bechaini jab barh jayegi aur yaad kisi ki aayegi, tum meri ghazlein gaaoge jab ishq tumhein ho jayega.."

[celestial-sapphicss]

first kiss this first crush that, what was your first ghazal thay you loved?

[neilperrysme]

अगर हम कहें और वो मुस्कुरा दें

agar hum kahen aur wo muskura dein

if I say something and they smile at me,

हम उन के लिए ज़िंदगानी लुटा दें

hum unke liye zindgaani luta dein

i could give up my life for them

अगर ख़ुद को भूले तो कुछ भी न भूले

agar khud ko bhoole to kuch bhi na bhoole

if i forgot myself, its as good as forgetting nothing,

कि चाहत में उन की ख़ुदा को भुला दें

ke chaahat mein unkee khuda ko bhula dein

in your love, i can forget God

क़यामत के दीवाने कहते हैं हम से

qayaamat ke deewaane kehte hain humse

some people dont fear a catastrophe and tell me/lovers of catastrophe tells me

चलो उन के चेहरे से पर्दा हटा दें

chalo unke chehre se parda hata dein

lets unveil the mask from their face

agar hum kahein

kiya hai pyaar jise humne zindagi ki tarah, voh aashna bhi mila humse ajnabi ki tarah </3

You literally picked the most difficult question 😭

I have many singers that I love, some of them are Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Hemant Kumar, Mohammed Rafi, and probably a thousand more that I forgot the name of.

And some of my favourite songs are Mein zindagi ka saath nibhata chala gya, Raat Kali, Oh Sajna (by Lata Mangeshkar, apparently there are several songs with the same name), Jalte hai jiske liye, Ranjish hi sahi, Abhi na jao chodke, Yeh kahani hai diye ki aur toofan ki and literally every robindro sangeet.

कल चौदहवीं की रात थी

शब भर रहा चर्चा तेरा

कुछ ने कहा ये चाँद है

कुछ ने कहा, चेहरा तेरा

कल चौदहवीं की रात थी

हम भी वहीं, मौजूद थे

हम से भी सब पुछा किए

हम हँस दिए, हम चुप रहे

मंज़ूर था परदा तेरा

कल चौदहवीं की रात थी......

Hey Gobind Hey Gopal Jagjit and Chitra Singh Saregama 1984 Este disco está clasificado en la red bajo el rótulo de Ghazal o forma lírica y musical de antiguas raíces arábicas. El Ghazal es muy popular en la etnia bengalí, quizás no la reconoces de nombre, pero si te digo que es la música del cine de bollywood, sin duda que sí. Entre sus instrumentos destacan el armonio, campanas, el tabla, mridanga, violines, la citara, la tanpura y el gambus. En India este estilo, además de ser éxitos radiales, musicalizar el cine, la publicidad y las leyendas folclóricas, también tiene su variante espiritual, y este disco es un ejemplo de la mano del matrimonio de Jagit and Chitra Singh. Es importante mencionar que esta música no termina en la grabación. La interpretación en vivo es relevante porque es una actividad congregacional muy característica del vaishnavismo. Cada canción se denomina bhajan (भज), y cada frase es cantada por un vocalista y luego el público repite. ¿Cuántas veces? Depende, pero en el caso de este disco promedia los 7 minutos. Esta actividad, los kirtanas, fue mencionada en Sonidos Pránicos dedicada Krishna Das, de igual modo recordamos que se trata de repetir dulcemente nombres de Dios o pasajes de escrituras hinduistas, evocando en la audiencia altas voliciones espirituales. Hey Govinda Hey Gopala originalmente fue grabada en 1984 en un templo Hare Krishna (Mumbay), sus regalías fueron donadas al movimiento ISKCON para la manutención del templo y la publicación de libros y folletos de prédica. Este LP contiene 11 cantos sagrados en idioma hindi, muy devocionales, muy bailables, y, como todos los buenos mantras, re-pegadizos. Luego de unos años se publicó la versión en vivo del disco grabada con 15 músicos y coristas. El zenit de esta interpretación es cuando suena el Mahamantra (maha: sublime y mantra: palabra de poder): “hare-kṛṣṇa-hare-kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa-kṛṣṇa-hare-hare hare-rāma-hare-rāma rāma-rāma-hare-hare” No es el momento ni lugar para explayarme sobre este bello mantra, no obstante, si existe el interés por conocer una tradición fidedigna, recomiendo buscar información sobre el Swami Srila Bhaktivedanta Prabhupada y el movimiento ISKCON. Bueno, para finalizar esta entrega no me queda más que vibrar alto. Namaste

Random Vedic Astrology Observations

Adele who is Ardra Rising and Lana Del Rey who is Ardra Sun both have a Paradise tattoo on the side of their hand

This is very interesting symbolism because Ardra nakshatra is preceded by Mrigashira nak which follows the fall from Paradise.

2. Pisces natives 🤝🏼 sculptures

L to R

Rihanna- Revati Stellium (including Moon & Rising)

Ava Gardner- Ketu in (1 degree Pisces) Purvabhadrapada

Bella Hadid- Ketu in UBP

Rosie Huntington Whiteley- UBP Mercury & Rahu, Mars in Purvabhadrapada (0 degrees Pisces) and Jupiter in Revati atmakaraka

Jin- UBP Moon

Isabelle Adjani- Revati Rising

Salma Hayek- UBP Moon

3. Jyeshtas really love jewellery

Vidya Balan- Mercury in Jyeshta (atmakaraka)

Rekha- Jyeshta Rising

Kim Kardashian- Jyeshta Rising

Nicki Minaj- Jyeshta Sun

4. I'd earlier made an observation about how Mars influenced men tend to go after older women and I thought I'd add a few more examples to that list!!

Sachin Tendulkar & Anjali Tendulkar have an age gap of 6 years and their wedding was hugely controversial when it took place in the 90s. Sachin was only 22 when he got married.

Sachin has Mars in Dhanishta atmakaraka and Moon in Purvashada amatyakaraka

Shikhar Dhawan and his ex-wife Ayesha Mukerji have an age gap of 10 years.

Shikhar is Dhanishta Rising, Mars in Chitra atmakaraka with Purvaphalguni Moon

Arjun Kapoor and Malaika Arora have an age gap of 12 years

He is most likely Chitra Rising

He also has Venus (amatyakaraka) conjunct Rahu in Bharani

I know that Bharani is Venus ruled but Bharani is the confluence of Mars & Venus energies and is ruled by the Mars ruled Aries and is another nakshatra that commonly appears in the charts of men drawn to older women

Aditya Pancholi is 6 years younger than his wife Zarina Wahab

He has Sun in Purva Ashadha, Venus amatyakaraka (in Jyeshta) Jupiter in Bharani and Rahu in Mrigashira

Karan Singh Grover is 6 years younger than Bipasha Basu

He has Moon in Dhanishta, Mars (amatyakaraka) conjunct Saturn (atmakaraka) in Chitra with Ketu in Purva Ashada

Vicky Kaushal is 5 years younger than Katrina Kaif

He has Venus in Mrigashira, Mars in Dhanishta, Jupiter (amatyakaraka) in Bharani, Ketu in Purva phalguni

Farhan Akhtar and his first wife, Adhuna Akhtar have an age gap of 7 years.

Farhan has Sun (atmakaraka) conjunct Mercury (amatyakaraka) in Purva Ashada and Saturn conjunct Ketu in Mrigashira

5.

idk if im crazy but i think these 2 women have similar features 😭😭

Zhou Xun is Chitra Sun, Anuradha Moon, Swati Mercury, Chitra Venus & Mars

Ning Ning is Chitra Sun, Bharani Moon, Swati Venus and Ketu in Anuradha

6. Rihanna has a tattoo of Goddess Isis on her chest

Rihanna is Revati Moon and Goddess Isis had powers like love, healing, fertility, protection, wisdom and magic. By virtue of her magical knowledge, she was said to be "more clever than a million gods". Revati nakshatra natives are endowed with divine spiritual wisdom and the deity of Revati, Pushan is the Sun-god in the form of Divine Guide and Nourisher, who helps us to find the right path and leads us to the right solutions.

Revati represents wisdom, empathy, unconditional love, fertility, growth, prosperity & spirituality.

7. Harry Houdini was a Hungarian-American escape artist, illusionist, and stunt performer, noted for his escape acts.

He has UBP Sun, Mrigashira Moon, Venus in Revati (exalted) and Ketu in Swati with Shravana Rising

Swati is connected to Maya or illusion so it makes sense as to why someone who has Ketu placed there would become notorious for hoodwinking the public.

Mrigashira nakshatra involves HEAVY themes of running away, escape and being trapped AND finding a way out. If you look at the mythology, its about Brahma's favourite daughter who takes the form of a deer to leave the heavens and run away to the earth to escape her father's sexual advances towards her.

Pisces rashi is almost always present in the charts of magicians or people who have some kind of illusory appeal on the public. Most mega successful celebrities have prominent Pisces placements, most supremely talented actors and singers do. The ability to put yourself out there yet remain completely mysterious and keep people under a veil is a uniquely Piscean trait.

Obviously with that Shravana Asc, he was basically born for this job. Moon dominant people are ADEPT at manipulation and making black seem like white or vice versa.

Dua Lipa recently released a song titled Houdini and she's Punarvasu Moon which I think is another nakshatra that is good at casting illusions.

[shyam-kariya]

उसकी आँखे एक सघन जंगल हैं

घर से निकलते ही सूर्य की किरणें

पूछती हैं सबसे पहले,जिसका पता

उसकी आँखे समुद्र का गहरा नीला पानी है,

जिसमें तैरती असंख्य रंगीन मछलियाँ

गूथतीं है मोतियों की माला

उसकी आँखे कभी ना खाली होने वाली नदी

का मीठा पानी हैं,जिसकी कोरों पर आकर

ठहरे हर दुख ने बुझाई है अपनी प्यास...

उसकी आँखो के पास कई इंद्रधनुषी रंग हैं,

जो ठहर जाएँ जिस किसी भी दृश्य पर

वो दृश्य फिर देर तक रहता है हरा!

दिल के दीवार-ओ-दर पे क्या देखा?

dil ke deewar-o-dar pe kya dekha?

what have I witnessed on the walls and windows of my heart

बस तेरा नाम ही लिखा देखा

bas tera naam hi likha dekha

only witnessed your name written there

तेरी आँखों में हमने क्या देखा?

teri aankhon mein hamne kya dekha?

what have i seen in your eyes?

कभी क़ातिल कभी ख़ुदा देखा

kabhi kaatil kabhi khuda dekha

sometimes a slayer, sometimes a god

अपनी सूरत लगी पराई सी

apni surat lagi parayi si

my own face seemed estranged to me

जब कभी हमने आईना देखा

jab kabhi hamne aaina dekha

whenever i looked into the mirror

हाए, अंदाज़ तेरे रुकने का

haye, andaaz tere rukne ka

aah the way you halt

वक़्त को भी रुका रुका देखा

waqt ko bhi ruka ruka dekha

i witnessed even the time stop still

तेरे जाने में और आने में

tere jaane mein aur aane mein

between your leaving and arriving

हमने सदियों का फ़ासला देखा

hamne sadiyon ka faasla dekha

i felt the distance of centuries

फिर न आया ख़्याल जन्नत का

phir na aaya khayal jannat ka

never again the thought of heaven occured

जब तेरे घर का रास्ता देखा

jab tere ghar ka raasta dekha

when i learned the way to your house

[the-always-enjoying-wali-ladki]

Rehte the ham haseen, khayalon ki bheed me

Uljhe huye hai aaj sawalon ki bheed me

Aane lagi hai yaad woh fursat ki har ghadi

Us mod se shuru karein, fir yeh zindagi
