Bangalore: Here is a shocking case of India’s future being decided by astrologers not the political leadership. That is how ever since India became “independent” on Aug. 15, 1947, the country has never recovered from tragedy after tragedy -social, cultural, political, economic and even moral because the country is governed by corrupt and superstitious astrologers, priests, tantriks even to this day.
The following passage on the hidden facts of history was found in a book by Tariq Majeed, a retired Naval Commodore, titled, Masterminds of Air-Massacres, (2006, pp.750, Rs.475, Baitul Hikmat, Lahore).
He says Lod Mountbatten as the viceroy of the undivided India suddenly announced the date of transfer of power as Aug 15, 1947 which sent-shockwaves across India.
ASTROLOGERS PROTEST
He says: The top leaders of Congress were speechless, following Mountbatten’s announcement of the date. In spite of being the Viceroy’s close collaborators they had not received even a hint that he would act with such decisive haste (Collins & Lapierre, Freedom at Midnight, p.166). But a strong protest against the announced date rose from the cliques of India’s influential astrologers. They declared that August 13 and 15 were both inauspicious days” (Wolpert: Nehru, p.404). The ministers-designate of India’s first cabinet wanted their swearing in to be done before midnight on the 14th.
As for the bizarre story of the
astrologers’ protests, it is aptly described by Larry Collins and his partner
As soon as the radio announced Mountbatten’s date, astrologers all over India began to consult their charts. Those in the holy city of Benares and several others in the south immediately proclaimed 15 August a date so inauspicious that India would be better advised to tolerate the British one day longer rather than risk eternal damnation.
CELESTIAL CATASTROPHE
In Calcutta, Swami Madam Anand rushed to his celestial charts as soon as he heard the date announced. He took out his navamansh, an enormous circular chart composed of a succession of concentric circles on which were plotted the days and the months of the year, the cycles of the sun and moon, the planets, the signs of Zodiac and the positions of the 27 stars influencing the destiny of the earth. At its center was a map of the world. He twisted the circles on his charts until they were all set for the 15th of August. Then, from a map of India in the chart’s core, he began to draw a series of lines out towards the edge of his wheel. As he did so he sat up aghast. His calculations foretold disaster…
From midnight, 14 August throughout 15 August, Saturn, Jupiter and Venus would all lie in the most accursed site of the heavens, the ninth house of Karam Stahn. Like thousands of his colleagues, the young astrologer looked up from his chart overcome by the magnitude of the disaster they had revealed. What have they done? What have they done? He shouted to the heavens whose machinations he interpreted for man….
Seizing a piece of paper he sat down and wrote an urgent appeal to the man inadvertently responsible for this celestial catastrophe. For the love of god, he wrote to Louis Mountbatten, do not give India her independence on 15 August. If floods, drought, famine and massacres follow, it will be because free India was bom on a day cursed by the stars. (Collins & Lapierre pp.166-167).
A GREAT MAP OF THE GLOBE
It was beyond the grasp of the stargazing gurus, (or may be some of them realized it later), that the date had been set by the forces of heavens and no one had the power to change it.
Here, recalling the scene of Swami Madam Anand bent over his astrological chart, with each circle set for 15 August, feeling alarmed at the inauspiciousness of this date and wishing it to be changed, conjures up in the mind a fascinating scene of another dimension. A great map of the globe showing the silhouettes of the divine plan lies unrolled in the heavens with the appointed date, Friday, 27 Ramadan 1366, 15 August 1947, marked at a dot on the map and an Angel of god is shaping the march of all events to converge on that dot.
THE DIVINE PLAN-AT A GLANCE
As in the Islamic custom the actual sighting of the moon, not the astronomical times of its rising and setting, determine the start of the lunar month, no mortal could have known years in advance that in the lunar year 1366, in the subcontinent, 27 Ramadan will correspond with Friday and in the solar calendar it will fall on 15 August 1947. Only god knew it, and he willed Pakistan’s creation on that date. See his plan how it was enacted. That is how “Hindu India” got its “freedom at midnight of Aug. 14, 1947. Even the so-called “fire brand socialist”. Jawaharlal Nehru, a Kashmiri
Brahmin, the first prime minister of Hindu India, simply surrendered to his jatwala astrologers who virtually controlled everything in India. That is how science and technology died
in Hindu India in the face of superstition, blind belief, karma kanda so that the rule of the micro-minority Brahminical people is imposed on the rest.
