Maharishi Prasara said one who learns and teaches astrology (divine science of light) is not assigned to hell meaning thereby that the doors of heaven are opened for him/her.
The following are important and pertinent questions for an astrologer to ask himself/herself whether he/she has attained fairly good level of learning before one starts practicing or imparting knowledge of astrology:
(i) Whether one practices the divine way in life i.e. (a) Be content; (b) Increase utility to humanity; (c) Help poor and needy; (d) Be kind, generous and benevolent; and (e) Avoid deeper involvement in sensual pleasures, anger, pride, greed and envy.
(ii) Whether he/she can identify the major areas of concern without the qurent seeking the consultation telling them. This helps a great in rectification of the birth charts.
(iii) Whether he/she can identify the planetary influences clearly indicating the cause of the consultation. Finding astrological reasons for a given and known incident is not the true test of attaining the knowledge.
(iv) Whether he/she can advise jyotish remedies (graha shanti measures) to bring the person out of difficulties.
(v) Whether he/she can help the person seeking consultation in his/her spiritual development.
(vi) Whether he/she has courage to face and tell the truth and simultaneously guide the person for the best possibility.
One who starts practicing or imparting the knowledge of astrology without attaining the fairly good knowledge is certainly earning difficult karma for himself/herself.
