This page relates ‘Concluding Remarks’ of the study on Karmic Astrology and its presentation in Vedic and the later Sanskrit literature. Astrology (in Sanskrit: Jyotish-shastra) is based upon perceptive natural phenomenon of cosmic light forms while the Concept of Karman basically means “action according to Vedic injunction” such as the performance of meritorious sacrificial work.
Concluding Remarks
Conclusively, the study of Jyotiḥśāstra and the concept of Karman pursued by the culture happens to be a study of nature and light forms brought forth by Kāla and its order on part of Jyotiṣa and the systematic study of physical and moral actions of human on part of Karman. Also, etymologically the term dharma originating from √dhṛ or the term religion from religere meaning ‘to bind’, in connection with the correlation appears as ‘a binding of prescribed human actions to the cosmic actions through Kāla’ brought about by the culture for the shaping of human future.
