Nadi Astrology Records of your past, present and future a) Can you believe that someone in Tamil Nadu at Vaithiswarankoil (290 kms from Chennai) keeps the records of your past, present and future. No way, is what you might think but the truth is quite different and very astonishing! If Pundits, famously known as Nadi Astrologers, are to be believed, everything about you has been written and recorded centuries ago by great sages on palm leaves. The world of Nadi Astrology By just using your thumb impression it is possible to tell everything about you, your parents, your siblings and your future. It is said that Nadi is an ancient astrology, which has been composed by great Maharishis (sages) of India in the past using their spiritual powers. Pleased with their fervent prayer and dedicated devotion, Lord Shiva bestowed on them with this remarkable skill, which is a kind of sixth sense extra sensory perception. Nadi astrologers: The chosen ones? With the help of divine guidance, the sages created records of everyone’s past, present and future on palm leaves, which fortunately are still intact even today. These records are however not available for the world, the sages created the records for only those people who are destined to know about them. It is widely believed that these chosen souls are involuntarily attracted to read the leaves by force of circumstance or under compulsion or by severe curiosity about oneself. The language on the leaf The language inscribed on these palm leaves is in old poetic Tamil and is understandable to very few who are well versed in the art of nadi reading. So, what kind of process is followed by the Nadi institute to get to your leaf? After all how can someone find about you by just taking your thumb print? Is the process scientific? Let’s explore… The process of reading the future Nadi astrologers take your thumb print (right hand thumb for males and left hand thumb for females) on a piece of paper. Every thumb impression can be classified into a particular category and the leafs are categorized in bundles based on the thumb imprint categories. They say that for a particular thumb impression there could be several bundles each containing many leafs with the future of various individuals. Once the bundle matching your thumb imprint is found, the naadi reader takes you into closed discussion and proceeds to read each leaf present in the bundle. All Nadi astrologers claim that the leaf reader has no knowledge of any of your details, he only reads out only what is written on the leaf as he has been trained to understand that language. The reader would one by one take up several leafs asking you to verify basic facts like your date of birth, your father’s name, etc. Asked and answered These facts would just be told to you and not asked from you, you just need to reply in yes/no. If you’re lucky you would get the leaf where everything that is written would match and answers to all the questions would be yes. It may also be that your leaf is not found, in which case they search the records at the main center in Tamil Nadu. (The main center has a much bigger collection.)
