Sir I have a query on astrology and liberation.If a person has some planets in 8th house which indicates past life Sin,will that affect his effort on reaching liberation .As per my understanding, he will suffer according to his karma but his atma will not be affected and can reach high spiritual level due to his intense bhakthi in this birth. Is my understanding correct?

Pained to know this. But birth and death depends upon karmic account. No body knows how one is reborn, where, etc. If karma of both of you permits, this is possible.

My wife passed away at the age of 32. Even till her last breath she wanted to live her life with me, she fought death to the extent she could. The relationship of husband and wife is only for one janma or I can expect to fulfill her wishes in the next janma as husband and wife again ?

There is no way we can draw a comparison to Bhisma. What I have said here is related to normal human beings. Further, there are bound to be differences between any two Sacred Scriptures on the explanation, though, the essence of their revelations remain the same. The views expressed are not mine, but that of Sacred Upanishads. Normal human beings surely cannot decide their death, whereas great sages and saints can decide their death.

If what you said it correct, in Mahabharath why Bhishma who had the Vara of Ichcha Mrithyu waited for the Uththarayana to come and then only passed away. Was he not aware the concept that you have mentioned. Could you quote some document to substantiate your views.- - - P.Mohan Ram

Liberation is of four types: Sālokya, co-existence with the Lord in His world. Sārūpya, attaining the same form as that of the Lord. Sāmīpya, proximity as that of the Lord. Sāyujya, absorption into the Lord Himself. The first one progressively leads to the last one. But the thought process of identifying the self with the Lord (sāyujya) leads to fast track emancipation. Mukti is too a wider term and is often mentioned as cessation from transmigration. It is a gradual process and directly related to one's level of devotion. As long as duality persists, liberation cannot be attained. When duality is dissolved, you become Brahman. Whatever you have mentioned are different stages of one's Love for the Divine. These stages are certainly related to different stages of liberation. In the state of sāyujya, your merge with the Divine and you are no reborn. Yes, they are Self-realized ones, but not yet merged with Him except the stage of sāyujya, which is the final stage of liberation. All these stages can be experienced while living with our gross bodies.

Thanks Sir.I have a another query.What about those souls who attained various Mukthi?( like sArUpya ,sAmIpya,sAlokya). Are they are self -realised ones? or they attain Mukthis with great devotion to our Lord even though they are not self-realized.
