Shloka : 23 / 30

Based on this verse from the Bhagavad Gita, individuals born under the Capricorn Rasi, when associated with the Uttiradam Nakshatra, experience significant influence from the planet Saturn in their lives. Due to Saturn's disciplined and structured nature, it helps cultivate stability and a sense of responsibility in their careers. To achieve success in their profession, they should act with a long-term perspective in their efforts. In family welfare, they can enhance the well-being of their family members by recognizing and fulfilling their responsibilities. In financial matters, Saturn's controlling energy encourages frugality and planning in financial management. Thus, by following the teachings of Lord Krishna, they can attain elevation in all aspects of life. Through true devotion and Guru guidance, they can also achieve spiritual advancement.

In this verse, Lord Krishna states that people receive different results based on their desires. Those who worship the deities of the heavenly realm can only attain their status. However, only those who understand the true nature of the Lord through the grace of the Guru can attain Him. Devotion towards the Lord comes to us through the Guru. The teachings of the Guru and the grace of the Lord elevate a person to a higher state. True happiness and goodness in this world lie in surrendering to the Lord.

This verse from the Bhagavad Gita illustrates a key philosophy of Vedanta: the paths and spiritual states to attain what we desire on the truth-based spiritual path are available through the Guru. Devotion serves as a guide in one's rich spiritual journey. Those who worship the deities of the heavenly realm receive limited happiness. However, those who live as devotees achieve higher spiritual accomplishments. Mere external worship is not sufficient; we must also direct the deep feelings of our soul towards the Lord. The Lord never looks down upon anyone, but only those with true devotion can attain Him.

In today's life, we act according to our goals. The same philosophy applies to careers or finances. If we strive for a specific purpose, we can see results accordingly. However, those with long-term vision will achieve stability in their efforts. Acting with the welfare of the family in mind helps establish the course of life as a duty. Recognizing and fulfilling our responsibilities towards our parents elevates our status in society. Planning actions to manage debt/EMI pressures is essential. We must avoid wasting time on social media, cultivate healthy habits, and adhere to good dietary practices and exercise. If our long-term health and well-being are sound, we should consider that a significant success.
