Ludhiana, April 15 - Kedar Sharma looks like an ordinary
man but he is not. He predicted the victory of Ms Hillary
Clinton in the US Senate elections and hence made friends
with Mr Bill Clinton while he was President of the USA.
Clinton had promised him in case his prediction came
true, he would visit him at Jaipur to say thanks. Hillary
won and Bill kept his word. He came to Jaipur to thank
Kedar Sharma. In return, Kedar Sharma presented the
horoscopes of Clinton, Hillary and Chelsea to the former
US President.
What is so special about Kedar Sharma? The moment he sees
a person he tells him his date, time and place of birth.
In some cases he also tells the name of the father. This
may sound incredible, yet it is true. He makes
calculations on his fingertips and within a minute, he
writes down the accurate time, date and place of one's
birth.
This was enough for Mr Clinton to accept Kedar Sharma's
mastery over the subject. After Clinton, it was Mr Bill
Gates who also acknowledged his knowledge of astrology.
And India there is no end to VIPs who seek Kedar Sharma's
counsel. He predicted the return of Amitabh Bachchan into
limelight. He had forewarned Mr Rajesh Pilot against
driving the vehicle so had he cautioned Mr Bal Thackrey
about his son. Both lost their lives in road accidents.
Kedar Sharma, who prefers anonymity, is a doctorate in
economics and has published a book Dynamics of Industrial
Finance and Development Banks, which is a research work
on developmental banking. He teaches economics in a
Jaipur college and prefers to maintain low profile away
from the media glare. He refused any interviews to the
media once it became known in Jaipur that Mr Clinton had
come to collect the horoscopes of his family from Kedar
Sharma.
As a matter of principle he does not accept money for all
he does. In fact he does not accept anything whether in
cash or kind. ''I am a teacher and earn my livelihood
from teaching. This (astrology) is my hobby and by the
grace of Almighty I have been able to make accurate
calculations'', he explains, adding ''without the divine
grace I will not be able to calculate anything''. In case
anyone insists on offering something to him he advises to
donate it to some temple.
Kedar Sharma went to the USA in November and was invited
to the White House by Mr Clinton, when he was then the
President of the USA. He had been introduced to Mr
Clinton during his previous visit as the President and
since then the relationship has been growing.
Yesterday he was here in the city at the invitation of
his friend Dr G S Grewal. Kedar Sharma is reluctant to
face the camera. ''It gives you too much publicity and
people are after you'', he says, while pointing out,
''You cannot do your own work''. It was after a long
persistence that he was ready to talk about his
relationship with Mr Bill Clinton or Mr Bill Gates.
Kedar Sharma argues that astrology is a mathematical
science based on calculations and the planetary
positions. He asserts that the planets and stars have a
definite and decisive impact on the life and personality
of people and astrologers only draw their observations on
the basis of mathematic calculations.

Point well made. It is an applaudable decision by GOI to teach astrology in
universities.
India now can expect NRAs (non resident americans) living in India, learning
astrology, not eating beef, nor drinking alcohol. Hindus can change the
world for the better, only if they would realize their destiny.
Are there American applicants? What happens when these NRAs return to
America to become RAs, practice Jyotishastra and start getting sued?

Yes, there are such NRAs who returned to the US
after starting their study of Jyotish, Ayurved,
Yog and other time-tested sciences in Bharat.
A notable one is David Frawley.
Right. There are many more. Actually some in US govt are finding useful
applications of it too.
It is only a matter of time that college of astrology will open up in USA
too in collaboration with Hindus.
This has already happened: there are at least three such
accredited schools in the US.

I wonder Indian court would take horoscope as evidence.
