‘If you don’t live with reality, reality will come to live with you’
It’s one of our favorite lines from Dr. Robert Svoboda, a living legend (if we may say so) when it comes to Ayurveda and Vedic Astrology. Living with reality - how hard can it be? Well, in this day and age it seems like a big task for many. We escape in many ways, activities and online realms, yet to learn again and again there's no way out. And the one planet that will have us face reality at all times is planet Saturn.
Saturn or ‘Shani’ is the most dreaded planet in someone’s horoscope, according to Vedic Astrology. He’s the big black, slow, cold and dry planet on the outskirts of the Universe. And there’s no denying that Saturn can make life indeed very painful and disappointing. But we must learn and understand what’s behind Saturn's dark veil and why he’s actually the greatest teacher of all. Of all the 9 ‘grahas’ (planets), we must first look at Saturn.
And who better to explain this complex yet very alive reality to us than Dr. Svoboda. He is the first Westerner ever to graduate from an Ayurvedic college and has been teaching Ayurveda and Vedic Astrology all over the world. He is the writer of many books including ‘Light on life’, ‘The Greatness of Saturn’ and ‘The Law of Karma’ - and yes, all are on our nightstand.
We couldn’t be more proud and grateful to have Dr. Svoboda in our podcast to talk about the Greatness of Saturn and karma. Because this slice of reality tastes freaking good.
