Yes. Yes, that's live. Can you put a comment? We are just coming back as there's a technical glitch and aa will be joining us shortly. Okay. So, we are live Aiga and thank you so much for coming Jir Krishna.
>> Thank you G and I also thank the audience for being with us here today. Cheers.
>> Yes. Uh we'll just wait for a couple of minutes by the time people uh join and uh get back on this uh thing and in the meantime if you can just uh share a few things in the meantime I will do the technical work behind.
>> Absolutely. Absolutely. I think I will read them for some time and I'll uh give me just a couple minutes. Absolutely. I will start with a prayer in the meantime. So yes
>> for sure. Fore! Foreign! Foreign! foreign. foreign. Okay. Jes Krishna Bya and welcome here. So um and welcome to each and every one of you who's watching this special edition of the conscious way and we are live with Abigya and that's primarily because the last podcast which we had done and that was recorded somewhere on the 7th of January. A big came all the way from Mysore to Delhi for that podcast and it was a long session of three years and uh we had done three podcasts and uh the one specifically on predictions where Abigya on the 7th of January had predicted that there were certain escalations certain tensions or uh in the near the Indian subcontinent and we are all witnessing it right there we are in the middle of it and there were lots of questions we got hundreds and hundreds of questions. So what we did was we took all of them together and certain themes emerged. They were the main questions which were concerns to each and every one of you. So I will come straight to the point. I'll start with the questions. We have approximately around 15 questions and I'll request a bigger to be be specific here as there are lots of questions and in the end we will also take some live questions uh from the viewers. So thank you so much Abiga and I will
>> thank you for having me here again and well I will try my very best to answer the questions.
>> Okay so the first question this is about the global geopolitical situation at the moment which we are witnessing and everyone as rightly they are concerned about. So looking at the current situation between Iran, Israel and America, when do you see this getting resolved or it will escalate further?
>> This is um from an astrological standpoint, it is uh sure to escalate uh further. Um and the time frame that we are currently going through as some of our viewers might already know is escalatory in nature. So expecting things to calm down completely going back to normal is almost impossible. There has been tremendous resource accumulation on both the poles of the world order at the moment and conflict is almost inevitable during these time frames. This is just one of those time frames when we need to gear up personally uh protect our own interests as a country and uh but uh we cannot control the situations outside. This is going to continue at least until April 2026 minimum until the 18th of April. It'll it's going to be really harsh. by the 11th of April uh most of the capabilities of uh uh the Middle Eastern countries will be tested severely. There is a possibility that uh I've discussed this earlier as well in a few other podcasts as well as on my own channel that this time frame between November 2025 and April 2026 is a very escalatory time frame, very dangerous time frame for Iran specifically and more so the time frame until the 11th of April 2026 and we've already seen u you know things being pretty uh horrifying there. Aside from the fact that uh their leadership has been decapitated. Uh what is most uh concerning and problematic is that more than 7,000 people were slaughtered in Iran since uh December of last year. And uh these were all protesters who were requesting a change of uh governance. And they had been slaughtered mercilessly. The minimum count is 7,000. it goes up to 36,000. So that's the worst part of whatever is happening now. And that's actually the highest amount of casualties. Um throughout this conflict, I'd say the conflict's worst part was then and ever since then, even despite the massive escalation in the past one month, hardly uh that number has uh been breached in terms of innocent people dying. So that's that's that's very mortifying to say the least. And uh we need to just pray for peace at least for the civilians of course. Uh you are on mute.
>> Okay.
>> So Amiga there's a a second part to the question because in your podcast you had mentioned that you see this situation the escalation in the month of March simmering down and then deescalating somewhere in the month of June. Does the planetary situation still tell you the same? Are we expecting something to escalate further?
>> There might be a temporary reduction in conflict uh but that would not guarantee peace. For example, uh the first time it started in uh in June uh between US and Iran, a direct escalation. Um there was a temporary period of weird calm and suddenly again it restarted this year February. So periods of calm are likely in between. So after the 11th of April once some consiliatory demands have been accepted sometime there could be a period of peace. Um and as far as the current leadership of Iran is concerned many of them would would would keep going off. uh the current uh so-called supreme leader is likely to have run for maybe one and a half years at least maybe not as a supreme leader but at least he might be able to keep his life and uh and uh the time frame until June particularly is uh after June there could be an there could be a secondary escalation in the Middle East until June just after April there can be a small small period of of say calm but I don't think that's long-lasting. I would be very surprised if peace is long-lasting.
>> Okay. And uh Okay. So people are very anxious about the overreaching timelines. In which year do you foresee the start of the alignment towards the World War II? as it was very blatantly asked in the podcast and you had mentioned that yes we see that alignment moving towards uh in the year of 2029.
>> Mhm.
>> So is this the beginning already?
>> To a large extent you could say yes because World War II actually started uh in 1935 when Italy invaded Ethiopia. Other historians would say it started in 1937 when Japan invaded Manuria and China and that was arguably one of the biggest escalations in the 30s uh Japan's invasion of Manuria. But the western centric view is that it started in 1939. Why? Because Hitler invaded a country in Europe. So uh the western centric view is that world war the world war II started in uh 1939 September whereas it actually had started in 1937. So if you look at it that way, the current escalation which can which which has a massive potential to be called World War II has already started sometime in 2022 with Russia's invasion of Ukraine and from that point onwards um it has escalated and one by one Israel uh you know getting embroiled in massive conflicts in the Middle East and now the US as well. So it's already in motion and now this this cycle cannot be stopped. This is not like other conflicts. This this cycle is going to escalate into something bigger. And uh yes the timeline is something similar uh similar to World War II but the scale is similar to World War I. So we're not going to see a massive massive destruction of human life as much as it was in World War II. that is probably reserved for the time frame after 2033 and I hope and pray I am right on this purely for humanitarian purposes because anything beyond that would be devastating owing to the current capacity that capabilities that uh human beings have. So uh the timeline is similar to World War II. The scale would be similar to World War I adjusted for population. And uh we're already in phase one of this, but it's after 2028 that you would actually see uh because uh the the the start dates of a world war are decided by historians as a postmortem exercise. Uh the start dates of World War II cannot be known by us even now. Later on, five years down the line, you and me can look into history and say, "Ah, this is where it started." Right? So uh you could say it has probably started in some ways. Yeah. But in the most stronger ways when countries would actually have to take sides would be after 2028 in my humble opinion. I would be very surprised and mortified if it took place any time before that.
>> Yes.
>> Okay. And one question specifically as you had mentioned the Indian subcontinent. So did you mean this particular situation which we are witnessing right now or you expect something to happen near us or
>> Oh yeah
>> for the country also
>> in fact uh it is already happening near us uh Afghanistan has been under attack and they've been fighting Pakistan and Afghanistan over the last uh over the last two months in fact especially around February and March they've been fighting very intensely uh in fact death count uh uh from this conflict is probably almost equal or higher than that of the civilian death count in the US Iridan conflict at the moment. So that's the that's the craziest part. But not many people care about it because of course it doesn't impact their daily lives as much as the Iran conflict. But it's happening and the conflict is moving east and as we've already discussed when the conflict begins to move east it is also going to have uh a very negative impact and a very positive impact for this region because this region needs a reset in in in you know in in several ways. Yeah. But but but it is already happening. The Indian subcontinent uh is uh is teetering on the brink of war. Okay, I'll come to another question. So that is what is the fate of America? Is there a real threat of attacks on the US soil in coming future and will it be attacked or get directly involved in a warlike situation on their soil?
>> Indeed, indeed, indeed. Absolutely. In fact, um, for some reason, I was specifically looking at, uh, Fort Cavazos in Texas. It's a it's a large military installation, one of the largest in the United States, and it's absolutely gargantuan in scale, and, uh, for some reason it seems like it is going to be the target. Um many people have are talking about California but this this is this is kind of like I haven't yet zeroed down on this and I will need some time to analyze this aspect because it's extremely complex half the dynamics we do not know. So it's it's part uh you know we we'll have to do a lot of uh speculative analysis to understand this. Yeah.
>> G
>> okay. and the fate of America in terms of its power, in terms of its dominance also it's a concern from some people the way things are going forward
>> very very well enough in fact uh the US is likely to get weakened due to this exercise and it is the exact reason why uh the other countries also are just sitting around as onlookers uh to watch it gradually you know uh watch the power of the of the United States bleed gradually. That that is exactly what is happening now. And um this is advantageous to some of the other Middle Eastern powers particularly to Israel. Uh the weakening of the United States is advantages to Israel. It is advantageous to India. It is advantageous to the new Iran. It is also advantageous to uh China and the Chinese-led world order. So what the US is doing now is going to have some really long-term consequences for it. Something that uh and again this is this is not something they can prevent either. Even the administration cannot prevent this because this is a machine they have built for a very long time and they have to sustain it without the petro dollar system which is exactly why they are fighting at the moment trying to defend their position in the world order. This is a machine they built uh several decades ago in 1973. So they have no option but to defend this and uh either way it's going down. Uh we cannot cannot blame the administration for this. But yes, the US is going to get weakened. As far as a uh as far as a political crisis in the United States is concerned, that is also very much likely. If you think of it, we are precisely experiencing 1968 at the moment. So in in many ways it is it is like a it's like a reflection of 1968. So what happened in 1968 is that the it was the worst year of the Vietnam War in the United States. Um again 67 and 68. So let's let's just look at these two years, right? In ' 67 and ' 68 it was basically the peak of the Vietnam war. The US troops had gone straight in. Just imagine we had tens of thousands of US troops on Vietnam Vietnamese soil. The North Vietnamese troops announced uh you know several offensives. They took over the south uh parts of the south. Many massacres happened. The US committed some war crimes. So did the other side. Very horrifying uh situations overall. And uh at the same time in the Middle East there was another conflict called the six- day war in 1967. And Israel absolutely won that conflict by a massive margin. At the same time the US without the support of Israel was fighting in Vietnam and it absolutely by any measure uh failed in its objectives uh in Vietnam. So what happened was there was a huge human cost. There was a war in the Middle East. The war in the Middle East was helpful for Israel. Slightly not that great for US-led powers in the sense it helped them retain the petro dollar system, but it was not helpful in uh you know it the US had to share power with Israel in the region. So instead of Israel just being uh you know a sort of mothership for the US in the Middle East, it became more like a partner uh ever since that war took place. So something similar is happening now except that Israel's power potential uh and and the power balance between Israel and the US which is a topic of debate uh in the US as well is shifting slightly more towards Israel especially as this conflict progresses. That's just the natural outcome. I am not mixing any of my personal beliefs in this. Um and yes 1968 as it is repeating you would also see uh conflict increasing towards the east. You would see it moving towards the east. Right? So one conflict in the Middle East followed by one escalation uh in the far east.
>> Okay. And uh what about the political situation you just mentioned of America?
>> Exactly. So regarding the presidency and currently yes you know anything as you had mentioned in the podcast there was a question about you know America getting weaker and also you seeing a civil warlike situation because of political unrest in America in 2027 and you
>> indeed in 2027 there is a negative time frame for the US. I wouldn't call it a civil war though. I wouldn't call it a civil war. Probably far from that. I'll be surprised if that happens. uh there can be a smaller level insurrection uh there can be major massive protests um okay
>> as I mentioned we are very in a time frame very similar to ' 67 and ' 68 when there were massive protests across the US anti-war protests because US soldiers civilians were dying there was a massive humanitarian cost in Vietnam etc um so something similar to that would happen now but would that topple the regime I would be very surprised if that happen because that did not topple the regime even in ' 68 and even in previous cycles. It takes some time for public frustration to build. And it's only when you take away man's bread that he begins to ponder upon his future. Until then, as long as you have bread and entertainment, as the famous saying goes, man is very happy to continue. He might rumble a little bit in his in the shadows, but we'll never step out to challenge the the regime. So, um, what I see happening is we're going to give this precisely four years from now. So, let's add four years to 2026. Around 2030, we could see a political crisis of that level. In 2027, it might just be uh smaller issue. And the regime knows this very well. The Trump administration knows this really well. and uh hence they will continue to act with impunity. Uh they might reduce their presence handing over more power to Israel in the Middle East over the next one one and a half years but yes the next four years are are going to be escalatory. Yeah.
>> Okay. Okay. So one question is specifically regarding Russia and Europe.
>> Okay. So, so regarding the conflict in the Eastern Europe, do you foresee a change in leadership in Russia and also is there a danger of this conflict expanding further into Europe or specifically the Baltic states?
>> That is that is a very uh intricate question and uh a change in leadership in Russia. Well uh recently as well I was I was analyzing the future of Russia very detailed manner and it does make sense. 2028 makes a lot more sense. Um whether the conflict would expand towards the Baltic, not now. Not now. For sure. All of that is after 2028. Um okay. Because the cost there is very very high. Uh cost of conflict in the Baltic is very high because of NATO. I would be very surprised if that happened. Astrologically as well. Uh I would be surprised if that happened. But this is a topic I have not yet researched on entirely and I'm still uh to be very frank confused on this front myself. So I will need some time to go through it. Yeah.
>> Sure. Sure. And there were lots of questions from Africa as such we did not cover Africa as a continent and have you done any research for them specifically situation in South Africa?
>> Oh yes definitely. Um South Africa is just currently going through a major uh sort of race war to a large extent. You know, people don't put it this way because it's very escalatory to use the very term race in the first place, but there is a race war in South Africa from a very long time. uh and now it's it's it's it's turned against the uh the the uh the white populations in South Africa. And would I expect this to change? I don't think so. for the next couple of years at least uh after 2030 and as more conflicts increase uh in in around the world gradually I think Africa would benefit from those conflicts uh largely it would it would greatly benefit from those conflicts and the African people will have an opportunity to to finally take control of their natural resources. Some of the countries will fare well at this. Some of the countries will do very badly at this and Africa, some of the countries in Africa will also start to become more open to the uh to the world order led by China which is already happening and specifically even India. I think India's presence in Africa is going to rapidly increase over the next four or five years. Indians will make a mark in Africa once more. the local populations will realize that what they did by sending out droves of Indians out of Africa during those times was probably not the best decision they could have made. So that's going to happen and Africa will benefit from this. Not every country. South Africa I'm yet to study. So again unfortunately I do not have much to offer on that matter but Africa as a whole will benefit from this overall situation.
>> Okay. So uh regarding this theme of global geopol uh geopolitical situation. So we have one question and this is in the comment section and this is that could you share your thoughts on Europe's future? Will any decline in its global standing and prosperity happen gradually or quickly and especially the western Europe? Western Europe.
>> Um, of course, there will be a gradual decline. The countries there really are very good at knowing how to manage the decline and they're probably self-aware of that now at least some of them. So, I expect them to adjust to it over the next few years. and some of them uh like France and the others are also making efforts to uh to partner with other countries to to avoid hassening uh their descent and uh also contributing in terms of innovation etc. So don't so I don't expect some sort of a dramatic destruction and complete uh decline or anything of that sort. If anything a war in Europe will only benefit Europe's growth. The worst thing that can happen to them economically at this moment is a war not coming to the western side of Europe and that will actually uh cause them more harm. The current if the status quo continues in which they in which they basically uh support uh wars everywhere else without the existential need for survival themselves. I think their decline will only hassen and that is probably going to take another few years. It's already in motion. I think we discussed this in detail earlier as well.
>> Okay. And
>> gradual question. I don't think you would see any any sharp uh sharp turns this year. I'd be surprised.
>> Okay. And uh this is the last question on the global conflict. Again, just one has appeared again. What is the UAE and the entire Gulf region's future? Immediate future till 2028.
>> The immediate future looks um the whole Gulf region itself is is is to a large extent the borders are made up. You know, they're just lines in sand quite literally. Um there it's less to do with culture, more to do uh you know borders of the Middle East are not drawn keeping culture in mind. There's not much history behind the drawing of those borders. It's just pure uh you know two world orders clashing and borders being drawn in between and it's literally the petro dollar system that's holding them in their places. They do not even have the level of uh military integrity to be able to hold their countries together. Half of them they literally depend on every other state in the world. So many of them are just proxy states. The first thing I expect to happen is that some of them starting to you know become very you know panicked about the overall situation. They're going to and and half of them haven't prepared well for it. Especially Saudi Arabia has definitely not uh prepared uh for what is to come and uh I am expecting unfortunately that the borders will start to break down going to happen after 2033 since you asked about the immediate uh two to three years uh the war is going to expand around the Middle East region that is for sure with small ceasefires in between but not enough to hold it together definitely not enough to hold it together and and and and and on the losing side is going to be most likely Saudi Arabia. The UAE seems a little bit better even though it's gotten very bad public relations hit over the last couple of uh months. But overall the whole region is is definitely does not look very good to me unfortunately.
>> Okay. So now we'll move on to the Indian subcontinent and a lot of people asked that you know as you had mentioned that the conflict will move towards the east and east is where we are and with all our neighbors. So what will be the situation like with the neighbors when we talk about India subcontinent with Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Pakistan. So do you see an escalation on this side also?
>> Yes, but not an allout uh war that is integrated into the into the other conflict in the Middle East. I think initially it might appear separate. Um that's my humble opinion and I expect um I definitely well the largest strikes in between the two countries Pakistan and Afghanistan have already occurred in in February and March. uh the biggest basically hundreds of people have died uh in this conflict at the moment. So this is quite literally a conflict in the Indian subcontinent and all the major players here are playing a role in this conflict. That is very very clear. They are playing a role. Well, India is also already acting uh and uh making sure that its interests are protected uh really well and this is only going to continue that I'm 100% sure and as far as it actually hitting our mainland Bharata's mainland that will probably there is a possibility around June of this year uh June to September uh but the stronger likelihood is after 2028 Not now.
>> Okay. And uh any specific uh tension between India or Pakistan or India or China or India or Bangladesh?
>> There were Natula clashes in ' 67. Uh there were some clashes there. Uh Natula and I think Chongula I'm not really sure but yes there were some clashes there. So I expect a significant clash to uh to to occur but I don't think it's going to be in between India and China. I think India and China over the next few years are going to find ways to gradually kind of work together. That has been my opinion since the past two two and a half years. So this is again something that I need to study. I am not currently aware of to be very frank. Yeah.
>> Okay. And one of the viewers his name is Anoj Gulati he's asking do you see a major conflict between India and Pakistan or let's say the neighbors in or before 2030 if not imagine but four years from now
>> quite quite sure about that 100% sure about that it's just a ticking time bomb uh starting now until 2028 uh there is one phase after 2028 until 2029 secondary phase PH and the secondary phase is probably the one to watch out for and this conflict will really be decisive in the longer longer run. Um the third and the fourth phases of this conflict. I think uh Pakistan itself will basically get restructured in many ways which will also include uh some sort of secession and a change in identity and uh the more the defeats in a war uh the more the cultural identity transforms basically and it reverts back to an original state over a period of time. So uh I am I'm hoping that over a very longer timeline uh there will be lot of positives even for Cind there will be positives for uh the part of Punjab that's currently radicalized Pakistan's Punjab and there will be uh positive things for the other provinces as well the Ky Pakunga province and others will also do well in the longer run once this identity change occurs that's going to take at least two generations in the short run there will be a major conflict Yes.
>> Okay. And uh one very interesting question has come up that you know as you had mentioned that during the periods of war somehow the only positive is that the c countries stands to unite and India you know the difference between north India and south India between north India and the east India we seem to be very separate in terms of yes culture is separate ideologies are separate but during these things do you see those borders also dissolving and India really uniting and becoming one power.
>> Yes. Yes. Yes. You're right about the first point which which we discussed earlier and I mentioned that war is a structuring force. Uh the countries often in the longer run that are negatively impacted by war are the ones that are relatively peaceful on ground but are used as extraction zones for the war between two parties, between two factions. It's the extraction zones that suffer the most in the longer run. For example, Africa in World War I, uh India and others in World War II, despite uh you know major massive escalations not happening directly in the heartland of our country, we were hit the we were hit really bad by those wars. Um so uh yes, war is a structuring force. It's going to be helpful. Depends on the leadership. I think we need to have a really really strong leadership. quite confident at the moment. We do in many ways have a strong leadership that's taken really good decisions over the last many years to make sure that any major conflict around the world does not really uh destroy the economic stability of our country and it's also made sure that our interests are protected really well. it has weakened uh its uh its its dangerous neighbors uh significantly and I think things so far are actually really good. Let's just hope this continues and I think this will continue as well. This is going to be good for Bharata in the longer run.
>> Okay.
>> And this is the last question about our country Bharata. And what about the political stability and especially the present dispensation that's BJP? Do you see them still going forward and winning the nextction and our current honorable prime minister completing his entire term?
>> Completing his entire term. Well, that would make sense. But unfortunately, I do not have any details uh on this front. I do not have birth details of the politicians uh contesting uh elections uh in India. So, I'm not really sure about this. But uh when I have information, I will let you know for sure.
>> Okay. But and what about uh current dispensation BJP going forward? You still see that consolidated power of for India happening in the future?
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yes. Yes. I do see it because India uh you know keeping my political opinions aside Indian population tends to stick with a single party. You know we did that during the Congress era as well. on the national level we don't like to change parties too often because uh the Indian mind is more like uh linked to the previous generations right so even though the youth might seem like they're rebelling against their parents it's not really so uh the Indian youth basically still uh has impressions from their parental sites and that's how they're going to continue this is at least until uh higher education reaches every nuke and corner of India this is exactly how it's going to be So if Congress ruled for these many say decades uh the BJP led coalitions etc going to rule for quite a few decades. I'd be very surprised if my assessment on this is on this is incorrect but let us see time will tell things.
>> Okay so with this we move on to the third theme and which concerns each and every one of us. It's about the financial markets. is about investment instruments although we've discussed all of that in uh in the past podcasts but again with this uh you know dramatic situation which has unfolded as you had predicted in the month of March so people are actually asking and I'll read the question here with so it says with rising conflicts and the reason recent crashes across the stock market ETFs and the cryptos how will geopolitics continue to impact the markets for the investors watching. Is this actually a good time to invest or it could be further more volatile from here or go down? Specifically,
>> this is this is this is probably uh uh by the 18th or the 20th of April, there's a likelihood that markets would continue to correct till the 20th of April at least uh bare minimum. Uh I'd not expect a massive recession right away. Again, I'd be surprised if that happens. Um okay so uh this is going to be a temporary sort of correction 20 30% is likely uh again this is this is just purely based off of a few few parameters that I've been analyzing so far so while that is true um gold this is a good time to buy gold with every little correction um buying gold consistently is helpful me and quite a few people I know personally have continued to make the same decision uh buying the dip basically. So it doesn't matter because in the longer run we expect conflict to only continue and many currencies to fluctuate rapidly. It's always good to be on the safer side and gold has done really well so far. But yes, as we discussed earlier as well, there going to be two or three corrections. One this year and one 2027, one 2020 uh one in 2033. In between there will be uh growth in gold prices. And as far as cryptocurrencies are concerned, my analysis on that is that uh the major cryptocurrencies are likely to see another bull run in 2027 and 28. This year I think by September they should probably see their bottom. Not really very sure about it because again the research there is quite limited but that's my humble opinion for the time being.
>> Okay. So Aiki you had mentioned in the podcast that the gold would correct and has corrected in the past somewhere to the tune of 50% also in the history and that was around 19
>> 80s
>> and you also had mentioned that it can correct up to 10 15 to 20%. So that's what are you mentioning that it can correct to that extent in let's say next year 2027 which you just mentioned
>> not 50% for sure that was very
>> 15 to 20% 15 to 20%
>> 15 to 20% okay that is likely and I think that actually happened recently as well not sure 15 to 16% it did happen so that part of it is already done another one in uh in 2013 33 is likely. Another one in 2027 is likely. But over the longer run, these small falls and percentage aren't really going to matter unless you know you're trying to trade with leverage, which I request the viewers not to on any of my statements. Despite you know, by Pagan's grace being right on quite a few things in the past, past performance does not guarantee future results. So it's better not to trade with leverage and just invest in the right assets for the longer run.
>> Yeah. Okay. And what about the overall economic scenario for India? Let's say from here to 2033 because you've been consistently saying that the situation will only get more volatile as we progress and we are heading towards a situation where even our country will be involved in a warlike situation. So will our economy take a setback or will it be on a stable ground or it'll increase
>> a temporary setback because uh currently there you know the the two sides of the economic spectrum one which is ready for war and the other which is not ready for war in India. So the one that's not ready for war, the economic spectrum that's not ready for war, mainly I think the financial services sector and others uh they're going to take a hit and that's going to reflect on the economy. But the one that's ready for war is going to outperform the rest by massive margin. That's primarily the manufacturing industry and um surprisingly even the tech industry, but only if they gear in the right direction. Some of them seem to be a little bit too sloppy for that. But let's let's let's see how things go. Uh my guess is that they would do really well and the Indian economy is going to rapidly increase over the next few decades. That's for sure. And this war whatever it is is going to help us. The longer we sit on the sidelines um without being able to you know properly plan uh for this uh the more problematic our situation is going to be. But our government has uh and our government administration and others have already planned really well for this scenario in my humble opinion.
>> So it's all good.
>> Okay. One more question just appeared. So if it the economy will not face a major setback. So slowly and steadily the way you said for gold is it a good time to even invest in the stock market and keep investing? I mean investing is always a good habit. I understand that. as you say probably you just mentioned post uh April you see further correction and then people can start reinvesting their money yes although this isn't um regulated financial advice I'd say that yeah over the longer run investing in India stock market is a wise decision a very wise decision um we are unlikely to see a massive say a sort of communist takeover of the country in the short run We are unlikely to see the return of uh red tape socialism uh and kleptocracy in the name of socialism. That's the bygone era and it's done with. There are fragments of it that are still present throughout the country. It's like a dying cancer and that cancer has to be uprooted by giving resources to the poor in terms of intellectual resources, educational resources and resources to rapidly increase their financial potential which is being done at the moment. So once this is done, the poor people will not be led astray by you know Marxist and Mauist factions and because of their upliftment they will integrate to the formal economy in my humble opinion and they're going to do they're going to do really well. Yes.
>> Okay. And
>> the primary thing about the growth of our economy is strengthening the poor. That's absolutely important. you don't do that and the country is going to completely break down again. So uh I think uh I think the government is doing a really good job on that front as well. Uh although yes much is left to be wanted.
>> Okay. So there is this one question from our current viewer his uh Jes. So he's talking about will there be mass layoffs and unemployment in India due to the AI revolution because our economy suffers as a result of global recession in the next five years? So it's it's two parts one is the AI revolution how much will it affect uh the jobs and second is because of the global recession.
>> Hm. This is one of the most complex and fascinating subjects I have been trying to you know make sense of it. Like comparing different sort of different sorts of endgames, different scenarios and seeing how this might actually impact the global economy and humans uh as a whole. Um it cannot be fully compared to the mechanical and industrial revolution in the late 1800s. Nor can it be compared to anything in history. But yes, some comparisons can be drawn based on whatever we can see. The fear is indeed real. Uh but I still believe that artificial intelligence uh is not going to be able to replace uh everything that the tech industry in India is capable of doing now and our capabilities are only going to increase in the next uh two or three years. We are going to be doing uh very well on the tech front too. we're going to innovate some really good things because it's the fear of survival that that drives humans to do new things. You we cannot expect humanity to grow unless we are we are uh hit by the fear of survival and that is exactly why we have grown to this extent uh throughout our evolution. So this is just one of those steps and we will find a way out of this. we'll have to grow and unfortunately there's going to be a great a great uh you know uh selection of the of the finest and fittest minds in the world coming going forward. So people who are not ready for this, people who are not ready to be hyper competitive, people who are not ready to upgrade their skills in every way, people who are not ready to hone their intuition and and and and basically master creative skills. something in the physical world and the and the digital world will be left behind so bad that it might even affect the population trajectory. So that's a very very strong likelihood and we're looking at something like that happening in 2033 and the resource accumulation at the highest level of the pyramid as you see in the world is is actually kind of increasing but around 2030 there will be a there will be a conflict there because we are seeing we we are seeing unreal resource accumulation and something's going to happen on that front too. something's going to happen. Uh there there there is most definitely going to be a ladite revolution as well. For those of you who are not aware of the term, uh ladites are basically were basically a group of people during the industrial revolution who opposed the use of machinery in factories thinking that you know humans would be replaced entirely. Instead what happened was that humans upgraded their skills got better at several things because of the fear of survival and many of them and not just the fear the incentive of of of being better. It's not just that we are trying to escape certain destruction we are trying to be better and explore something beyond our capabilities. For example, if you told someone in the late 1800s that me and you today will be speaking on an interface live to hundreds hundreds of people over a sort of cloud technology they would be very very uh surprised. They would not be able to imagine this. But the very fact that humans have come this far is because they graduated from the necessity of sitting and working in mills. And the very fact that human beings reached mills in the first place being able to massproduce items is because they graduated the necessity to work in fields continuously. So I am quite excited for what humans will be able to do next because we're going to graduate from sitting around working with computers coding stuff manually. We're going to graduate from this and do something more wonderful. Let's just see how things go.
>> Okay. and one question uh that it's been almost 100 years since the great depression and there would be an alignment of certain planets because that was one of the most devastating times. So has there any uh study you've done regarding that because we are in the same conflict regions and wars and you know the great depression happened just between the first world war and the second world war. So can that situation reappear here for the entire world because of the rising prices and artificial intelligence coming at the same time.
>> Hm. That catapults me into uh indeed. Well, uh a great depression for an extended period of time is is kind of uh likely post 2030, but I have not yet understood the exact timeline. I will get back uh to everybody regarding this when I have a better picture of this G. But yes, a great depression um something so extended. We're looking at the time frame after 2030 that has potential. It has potential to be devastating, but um it's not going to hamper the growth of at least of of of uh some of the countries in the global south temporarily. Yes. But we'll find a way around it.
>> Yeah.
>> Yeah. But this is uh even I just read it's an interesting question Abiga you know specifically with the disruption which AI is creating in terms of layoffs and jobs and the war happening with the rise in oil prices. I think this is a subject which you should uh study about. You know this concerns a lot of people and it's a situation which is very close to what we've seen way back in the past. So that's perfectly fine. I know you need time for that. And one last question and I think from the viewers. It is one of the questions that a lot of people ask about natural calamity. Have you done any study about natural calamity like an earthquake or a tsunami or a pandemic happening in the near future?
>> A pandemic unlikely until 2040 of large uh you know of any large scale. What happened in 2020 was incredibly rare. we humans are more likely to kill one another than to you know than than for microbes to do the job. And uh unfortunately you know very unfortunately there there was this graph which I was recently studying um and I basically uh personally I you know use artificial intelligence mainly for the purpose of statistical analysis and not for the purpose of replacing my uh way of thinking. I don't ask it to think for me. I just ask it to put together facts in a manner that I can use to think. And I just created a graph which showed the number of deaths throughout each year in the last 200 years or so and related to different reasons. It's human conflict that has been the biggest determinant of any factor in terms of violence. So pandemic no not until 2040. That's that would be very surprising if you see something like 2020 again. uh and even in 2040 it's more likely going to be a food security issue than anything else. Natural disaster, yes, some sort of a natural disaster might uh hit uh the fertility of food or there could be a conflict that could hit the food supply chain because a food supply chain is actually quite fragile. And that is also very much likely in fact. So around 2040 we
are seeing that happening.
Okay. So, uh, we're almost coming to the end of the show, and, uh, I want to just share this one question. It was very concerning when some people were thinking like this, you know. And that question is, definitely with so much of things happening, disruption, warlike situations, people are feeling so overwhelmed and fearful. So, there was this one person who asked, "Is this a good time to bring children into the world with so much of cures?" Or that, uh, can it be postponed? Now, this was a question, but I just wanted to share with you that's the kind of fear people are going through right now.
I understand. I understand. Completely understand.
I understand that's very, uh, you know, that's a very good question, actually. Because at the end of the day, it's one of the biggest things that, biggest things that actually matter to people. And, uh, it's actually a very insightful question. Whoever asked that was, was thinking in the right manner. So, well, um, whether or not, say, an individual brings children into the world during this time frame, the fertility rate in many countries is already rising. So, a lot of children are going to come into the world anyways. Uh, out of which, unfortunately, a lot will die, mainly due to, not, not purely due to conflict, due to other reasons as well. Just like any other species, you know, population increases, there will be, uh, competition in between, uh, you know, uh, the same, the members of the same species. And that is already happening. That will happen. Uh, if you are currently in a country like India, if you are, uh, especially in more safer zones of India and other places, you need not actually fear that much. And having children would give you a lot more purpose to build a better world for everyone. Uh, instead of, say, you know, uh, yeah, I think at the end of the day, I don't think it's, uh, it's that big of an existential risk that, that one has to make the decision of not having children.
Yes.
Okay. Uh, this one question, you know, I, I, I do agree with what you said, but probably this question would have emerged from these regions of conflict where there is war happening, you know. And that concern is really very valid. But it's very subjective.
And yes, so in the end, for everyone, you know, we'll ask you one question. But this one last question from the viewer, it's just appeared, and this is the last question which we're taking. And, uh, after that, we'll move on to a very, very valid question, which is a personal question from me to Abigya. But before that, uh, have you done any study of any comet or something hitting the earth? Is, uh, so that's, that's the question.
To be very frank, I do not think so. I do not think there's going to be a, a comet that's going to hit the earth, at least for the foreseeable future, for our lifetimes, at least. But, you know, maybe, maybe God wants to prove me wrong, so we don't know. I, well, let's hope, uh, it's not. So that would be just crazy.
Yes. Absolutely.
Yeah. And by the way, I think there was a, I was just looking at some of the, uh, questions as well. Um, one question was regarding zones of peace. Uh, you're very right. Uh, in even in the worst wars, there have been zones of peace. Now, identifying these zones is extremely difficult because there's so many dynamics involved. Most importantly, people and their decisions. So, I will need some time to go through this, and I will let you know.
Okay. Uh, so Abigya, just, this is my one last request from you. You know, it's so much going on right now, so much fear between people. And as I remember very clearly, in the podcast, you had mentioned, you know, the science of Jyotisha helps people to navigate through these situations. And very beautifully, for everyone, you know, there's one more part of the podcast which we will be releasing, uh, this coming weekend, probably on Friday. And that is how Jyotisha can help you in your daily lives and how it can be the beacon of light for each and every one of us. And in that podcast, Abigya had mentioned something as the pariharas, the four pariharas which you can do, which can really help each and every one of us to navigate through these difficult times. And also, if you can share a mantra or a chant which we can all do together for world peace and harmony, you know, uh, it's, it's all the mass collective consciousness which also has a very powerful way to, you know, it can subdue these situations which are emerging. So, we'll do a prayer with you in the end, a simple prayer. And if you can just explain about the parihara, that's very powerful.
Most definitely. I will put it in a very brief manner that is helpful to our listeners and the audience here today. So, first of all, the primary purpose of Jyotisha is to give you clues about the future which help you alleviate your anxiety. For the vast majority of people, uh, Jyotisha helps alleviate anxiety because information about the future, uh, helps to a large extent. Um, when you know the most likely outcome of a situation, your cortisol levels, as such, uh, tend to be slightly lesser, unless it's an event far into the future. Like, for example, if I'm predicting, uh, you know, that everyone is going to get destroyed in, say, 2060, 2080, 2000, that's not going to help anyone because it, that information has no use. Information that is being given now has a lot of use. The primary use of Jyotisha, however, is to help people understand the concept of karma. The primary use of Jyotisha is not to help people to simply prepare for the next conflict. That is a secondary use. The primary use is to establish the concept of karma. That is why the sages gave that, because when the sages tell you that there is something called karma, you commit an action and you get a reaction for it. They wanted to show that in reality to us. So, they gave us a framework to show that this is how the universe works. This is exactly how the universe works. And hence, they showed us the proof for it, the proof that karma does exist. And that is Jyotisha. And the people who realize the importance of karma eventually have a better and faster route to salvation, to understanding the true nature of the world, and, uh, going on a spiritual side. And the other benefit of knowing karma truly, uh, and at least understanding to an extent what karma is, is that you become a better human being. You help people around you. You do more good things because you understand that your action is so, so powerful. It impacts your world. It impacts your next generations. It impacts you individually. You're not just helping yourself, but you're also helping everyone around you. And by doing something wrong, you're not going to be able to escape anywhere, and the world always has a way to get back at your actions. So, by knowing about the importance of karma, you can do better things in life. That's the whole use of Jyotisha.
Now, in terms of the pariharas, it's very simple. The powerful are oppressing and torturing the weak throughout history. It's a very, uh, it's, it's a very common thing. Unfortunately, it is a very natural thing. The powerful oppress the weak. And the moment there is a weakness that is seen, there is someone out there who wants to exploit that weakness. And we are no exception to it. We sit in our homes thinking we are innocent. Most of us tend to harm our surroundings extremely. Uh, humans eat so many animals and so much meat in a day. We literally commit genocides on a very regular basis. We, not genocides, we could rather say mass slaughters in a single day. We kill millions upon millions of animals in the most ruthless manners possible. Especially in developing countries, animals are killed with, without even a fraction of humanity that we give to our fellow humans. And we expect that our world is extremely peaceful and kind to us, which is extremely hypocritical to say the least. We have different standards for different species. We somehow place ourselves upon an untouchable pedestal where rules apply. And the very immediate species rules do not apply. We, we slaughter them with our van instincts. And, uh, Jyotisha helps us understand that when there is suffering in our personal lives, in our situations, in the world at large, it is not because we are innocent that we are facing these situations.
So, what's the best way to change? Not to be defeatist and to, to basically, uh, retire from the world. That's, that's not the, uh, the, uh, the course of action. As Lord Sri Krishna says, we must do our dharma, our duty, our karma. And for all of us, there's a very simple thing that can be done. Try to help those weaker than you. Very simple. Try to help those weaker than you. Right? So, everyone has something or someone who's weaker than them. At least an ant is weaker than you. An animal is weaker than you. Go find your nearest animal shelter where sick and injured animals are being, uh, tortured, where they've just been saved from torture, where some of them lack limbs, and many of them don't even have anesthetics. Uh, find something to do there and volunteer there. That's the greatest parihara you can do. The pujas, the havans, and everything else is secondary. First, find an animal shelter where you can actually help people. Secondly, once you do your duty to the animals, and the suffering species, especially, especially those which contribute to human civilization in a very strong manner. Uh, now, there are cows, there are goats, there are, uh, there are, you know, so many animals, there are cats and dogs as well, who contribute in many ways. First, help those who have been helping you for so many, I don't know how many millennia. So, this is number one, helping dana. Secondly, vrata, austerity. Within giving up something that you don't need on a regular basis. You need not completely retire from the world. Again, all of us have our own desires, our own, our own ambitions in life. Once in a while, we must step back from that and do something to put ourselves in a position of austerity. Maybe giving up, say, I can't ask anyone, everyone here to give up non-vegetarian food from today. Give up meat and alcohol and other things that are harmful for you and your environment for at least two days in a week, or three days in a week, or at least once in a fortnight on a fasting day. Give up. And for those of you who are already, say, born in vegetarian families, that's not enough. You always have to make progress. So, you always have to move ahead. In fact, a person who is, say, born eating meat, etc., from a very young age, if that person makes a change towards avoiding meat and alcohol, he's already stepped up a thousand levels and he's done greater than whatever you have done by simply, uh, you know, being born, say, in a family that eats vegetarian food. So, for you, the next step is to start fasting on a regular basis and to do something good for your surroundings. Right? You keep making, you keep stepping up. Uh, that's the, that's the best thing you can do. So, vratas, there are countless vratas established in the scriptures. You can pick any one of them. Maybe a Monday, maybe an Ekadashi, maybe a Pradosham day. If you're a devotee of Lord Shiva, I practice Pradoshams quite regularly too. Ekadashi is quite some time as well. And personally, I'm trying some of these aspects. I also fall short on my spiritual practices. But one very good spiritual practice you can embody is chanting. Constant chanting, any one mantra, or meditating that puts you in a state of peace. And when you are in a state of peace, your environment is in a state of peace. The entirety of the world experiences your peace, at least to an extent. And that's very beautiful. So, we all can do a little bit of that. Vrata, dana, japa, and dana, meditation, you know, vrata, austerity, dana, charity, in the right direction, right place, to the right person. The most suffering of all must be given to. So, that's my humble opinion on this, directly from the Shastras, G. And also my personal, you know, I speak for my own conscience here. So, thank you. Thank you for listening.
Okay. And any particular chant or a prayer which we can all do together? We have almost a thousand viewers with us right now.
Oh, that's nice. Um, the Aditya Hridaya Stotram is beautiful. I'd recommend the version that's available on the Sanskrit channel. It's a very beautiful channel on YouTube. It's called the Sanskrit channel. The, you know, Mahody G posts really good, uh, content with pure and perfect Sanskrit pronunciation. Uh, you can all refer to his, uh, videos and, uh, listen to the, to the stotra. The beauty of these stotras, they are so, so pure, so beautiful, the way they've been composed. Uh, there's no language in the world that has the kind of brevity and poetic integrity as Sanskritam. And when you listen to a, a poem, a shloka, a mantra, uh, a hymn in Sanskritam, uh, it has a beautiful feeling. So, listen to the Aditya Hridaya Stotram, listen to the Shri Rudram, listen to, uh, the Bhagavad Gita. Read the Gita. And there's any one mantra, maybe chant the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. It's a very beautiful mantra as well. Uh, just chant Rama Nama. Rama. And continuously chant that way. And for those of you who are initiated into the Gayatri Mantra, chant the Gayatri. But that has to be regulated in a certain fashion. That is amazing as well. For everyone here, I think, for now, I just recommend chanting the Aditya Hridaya Stotram. It's my personal favorite. Wake up early in the morning, before sunrise time. Go to a place where you can see the sun rising. After taking a bath, uh, face the eastern direction, and as the solar orb rises, focus on it and chant the Aditya Hridaya Stotram. It's beautiful. It's the very mantra that gave power to Lord Sri Rama when, in his very human and humble incarnation, uh, he was fighting against Ravana and feigned a sense of weakness, which was given, again, that, that sense of weakness was destroyed by the chanting of, uh, the Aditya Hridaya Stotram. So, please do that, and that would be excellent. Go Seva would be wonderful. Find a nearby shelter for Go Seva where you can feed cows. This is religion agnostic. The reason I am saying this is not just because Hinduism believes that Go Mata is very pure. Buddhism does, and several other religions do. But even keeping that aside, humans so far have developed in terms of our brain capacity, in terms of our physical capacity, in our evolutionary scale, mainly because of the help we received from cows, uh, throughout the time. We have extracted a lot from them. So, the law of karma teaches us that it's only right to give back and to pay back, uh, the debt that we have accumulated over several millennia. So, let's please do that. Find a Goshala nearby, contribute to the best extent possible. Feed Go Mata and protect Go Mata. There are millions upon millions of pathetic human beings who, uh, who, despite knowing how much Gumata has contributed in their lives, just, you know, take the milk, extract the milk, and send her off to a pathetic slaughterhouse. And such human beings, unfortunately, add on to our collective karma. All we can do is become better human beings and at least stop harming the animals that have helped us the most.
Yes.
Okay. Thank you, Abigya. And I just wanted to share with you from my side for each and every one of you. And this particular practice is taught by Paramahansa Yogananda. He's the author of Autobiography of a Yogi. And as Abigya just mentioned, you know, that the most important thing is to give something from our side, you know, to the weaker or to anyone. So, what we can do before we just close is, you know, we'll do three rounds of chanting of the Om mantra. You simply have to chant Om. And in this, what we'll do is, first, we'll concentrate here at the point between the eyebrows, and that is the seat of concentration. It is also the seat of our discrimination. And we will keep our eyes closed. I would just request all of you to sit straight, keep your spine straight, chin parallel to the floor, and just visualize the entire globe at this point here, at your point, seat of concentration, and see it totally enveloped in a healing vibration of a golden light, you know. And see each and every continent, each and every country being healed by that golden light. And this golden light is actually emanating from your consciousness, which is simply a part of that infinite consciousness. And see that golden light enveloping each and every soul on this planet. Specifically, the people who are going through this warlike situation in these dreaded times. See every one of that person who's fearful, who's feeling scared with these times. Keep them at this point. And now, just gently get both your palms together and just rub them strongly like this. Rub them strongly. And now, just raise them to set this healing vibration with three chants of Om. We'll do together.
Om.
Om.
Om.
Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.
That was beautiful.
Thank you. Thank you so much. And thank you to all the viewers who patiently watched. And I'm sure we've tried to take as many questions as were possible. And we've crossed our time limit also. We are here at 1 hour 15 minutes. But thank you to each and every one of you. God bless. And thank you, Abigya. And thank you all for listening and for your patience as well. And you are Ji Krishna.
Ji Krishna, perhaps.
