Astrology - a note of Time

Astrology - a note of Time

We have all seen time tables, didn't we?.  In earlier days, the railway time table was the most common time table known to many.  Let us try to see what that time table contained. 

A railway time table shows, the details of a train - among others, when it starts from a place and when it would stop at the successive stations before it reached the destination.  I am not pretty sure as to how this was arrived at - whether by statistical inference, or by mathematical extrapolation, or by any predictive analysis of the efficiency of the engine considered along with the durability of the bogies or by some other means!.  In any case, our Indian Railways do have some mechanism to calculate this so accurately because, they usually showed the time correct to the last minute!.

Having said so, does the train always keep time of travel to that right minute as given in the time table?  Sometimes Yes !! or Sometimes No!! would be the answer.   However, the train certainly does travel by the time table,  though sometimes later or at times earlier ?!!

Does it help any one blaming the time-table for the early arrival or the late arrival of the train?  Is it also well guaranteed that the train would travel on all days as mentioned in the time table?.   The answer would be "Not Necessarily". 

Why is this so?  Because, there is something called 'Environmental Affects'.  The train does or should have traveled  as per the time table.  However, due to other environmental affects, many a times, the train would not stick to the time.  For eg. Heavy unprecedented rains, any other natural calamity or temporary breakdowns or obstacles could come in the way of the smooth journey. 

For this, is the train at fault, is the time-table at fault, is the station at fault or is the Govt.at fault?.

Therefore, this makes us believe that there is something that is attached to any creation that determines its time-table.  Even a rock upon your nearby hill does not stay eternal in the same form as it was at the time it was created. 

When we think about human creation, we can see that our own creation is a time-taking process. Further, our development from egg can also be measured as in the case of a train traveling through the stations!!.

A small stone dropped into a pond creates ripples and have we not watched how the ripples seem to move out and away from the centre of its birth?  

A blown bubble floats in the air for some time and then blows apart.

Time - a measurement
Ancient Rishis of India observed this phenomenon of time and thoroughly understood it and therefore, symbolized it as 'Kaal' - the ultimate.  'Kaal' is known as the Lord of Death and is also called the Dharma-Rajah meaning the Lord of Justice.   (This is akin to the 'Last Judgement' of the semetic religions).  Kaal, Kali, Kaali, Kaalapurusha, Kalki etc. are all the same 'Time'.

Could the fish like 'beejam' / sperm (Matsyam) through the Tortoise like 'pupa' or foetus (Koorma), short limbed 'Boar', the half-man-half-lion (Nara-Simha), and after the birth, the miniature 'human' (Vaaman); the violent 'Parasu-Raama', the matured 'Raama', the Super-man / attractive 'Krishna' and the final 'Kalki' be the Time-Table of a human being!!?!!
