It was like Aasman se gira, khajur pe atka kind of experience. For me at least working for Sify wasn’t a good experience at all. But few things I am always grateful to Sify for are - they allowed me to handle Sify Astrology single handedly for almost 4 years & second that I could meet my Astro-spiritual teacher. Things were smooth at Sify before someone walked in with a MBA degree to screw up the whole thing in the name of Marketing. Well none to be blamed – it was my destiny pattern, which never allowed to have a good relationship with my bosses.

And then came the episode of blogging at Sify, where in I had to literally fight with every senior to justify my point of freedom of expression. Neither did they understand nor did they bother. And I finally had to sway a final bye to take up astrology & blogging as my new profession.

It didn’t stop there. As my career at Sify was coming to an end, I was even misunderstood by my Astro teacher. He accused me of many things, which I hardly could think about. No amount of talks, no amount of mails, no amount of meetings, and no amount of meditation helped me to show the correct picture of myself to my teacher - till today. The relationship went through a rough patch, and it went into a silence for months together.

Even till date, we have bitterness persisting in our relationship. And we haven’t stopped trying to put it right. This was when I understood the power of destiny – it is simple truth that no amount of personal effort can ever change your destiny patterns.

There is no doubt that I am ‘nobody’ in the field of astrology, without the grace of my teacher. And also I am ‘nobody’ as an individual without meeting all those teachers, bosses & superiors I interacted with. There was always something to learn and something to unlearn. They were all God sent people who helped me to move on with life. Today I report to God directly. And thank God, God doesn’t have a physical form hence we rarely have any misunderstandings

With time I also realized that, the times and moments I have taken decisions against my father or bosses or teachers willingly or unwillingly, knowingly or unknowingly – I have done better in my life. If I have had listened to my father, I would have done my Msc Chemistry, and then Phd, and would have become a professor in some college, if I have had a good relationship with my Express boss, I would have moved to India.com and then would have become jobless, if I have had a good relationship with my Sify boss, I would have never learnt astrology, and never would have blogged, and if I had listened to my Astro teacher – I would have never quit Sify, and never would have taken up astrology full time!

And this concept of life patterns is true with every individual, not necessarily with bosses alone. Most will have one or two grey areas in their lives, which cannot be solved with human efforts. Few will have bad luck in love and marriage, few will have bad luck in areas connected to children, few will have bad luck with vehicles, and few will have bad luck with health…so on so forth. And once you get to understand your life pattern, life becomes easier, and you tend to move towards effortless living….
