  • ALIENS ARE ON EARTH IN 3 PLACES, NOT IN SKY – ATLANTA KAASHHYAP CHALLENGES SCIENCE

    ALIENS ARE ON EARTH IN 3 PLACES, NOT IN SKY – ATLANTA KAASHHYAP CHALLENGES SCIENCE

    Read Time:4 Minute, 31 Second

    Atlanta Kaashhyap knows WHERE DO ALIENS LIVE? Openly challenges science to PROVE HER WRONG.

    September 14: Astrologer Atlanta Kaashhyap says, “We have Aliens on earth majorly at 3 places, India is one of them”. Atlanta has given an open challenge to the scientist to prove her wrong. As per the sources, to justify her statement correct, she will share the evidence via her social media (Facebook) handle “AtlantaKaashhyap_Prediction”.

    Atlanta Kaashhyap is a well-known Indian Astrologer who specializes in many forms of Arts And astrology. Since her childhood, she has been predicting the future, and she has never failed with her prediction. Atlanta is a future predictor that never coincides with any of the ancient future predictors like Baba Vanga or Nostradamus.

    Her near and dear one believes “if she says anything by fluke also it turns out to be true, and we believe Atlanta is a super kid”.

    All this might sound crazy, but we have a lot of stories to share. One of the best examples would be “Few Indian women were not able to conceive, they were trying for past 6-7 years. After meeting different doctors and taking medications, they almost lost hope of having a baby. Then they happened to meet Astrologer Atlanta and shared their emotions with her. Astrologer Atlanta said to them, “you will definitely give birth to a soul”, and adding on to that, Astrologer Atlanta asked those women to write a letter or an email to themselves mentioning In Details: “I will be conceiving in a few months/years/Time Etc”. These women were able to conceive and were able to enjoy motherhood. Astrologer Atlanta can also predict the gender of the child before birth. A lot of times, when doctors have predicted a date for the birth of a child, it has gone wrong, and the baby has been born on the date that Astrologer Atlanta predicted.

    Astrologer Atlanta believes there are many super kids born like her on this earth. At times we believe these are supernatural conversations, but that’s not how it is. It is so good to have these powers and use them as and when required for people to help, to make them happy.

    Atlanta has prepared a theory on aliens for many years and termed it “THE SILVER MOON PROJECT”. As per Atlanta’s Research, she says, ” I am 3000% sure and I can challenge everyone about aliens, that they are nowhere in the sky or on other planets, aliens are here on the earth. I know a lot about Aliens, be it. Where do they stay? How do they stay? Why do they look like this? I know it all. I even know about their categories.” “I’m only sharing 30% clues for the good human beings. This information is not for those who are trying to breed higher on Earth. As I believe, on the one hand, if science is leading to positive research, then, on the other hand, some scientists are doing negative research as well. And those who are alien to us are really against negative spirits and negative research.

    Do you know that we are also aliens for them? As per Atlanta prediction, there are 3 Active categories on the earth. I divide them into grade A (location code – ARA/ARA). Aliens Grade B in India (Location Code – RSN/RSN+HLA/HLA). Aliens grade C in the United States (location code – AB/AB).

    Do you believe Aliens also die? Science made a mistake where aliens got trapped. The first alien category is trying to make contact with each other. Grades A, B, and C want to meet each other to solve their problems. There is no doubt that aliens are extremely talented; they can read minds. Aliens participate heavily in some wave energy, such as telepathy. They can go anywhere and can come back as well. But after all, they are facing painful problems on earth. There is a category of 12 to 21 aliens. The eyes of the first category are black; they are like the soldiers of the army and are experts in special spiritual protection. The other two categories are very gentle, innocent, and loving, who is very close to God. Aliens are not enemies of human life. But some mistake has been made by science, which doesn’t let the aliens walk out of space. I have many theories like these, but this is not the right time to share them. They have chosen me as their friend to mediate between aliens and humans. The aliens are trying to contact many spirits, but they are and are looking for Super Kid. They, too, are in pain. Aliens told that even before, many aliens have died due to some research.

    Now we need to wait and watch what Astrologer Altlanta has for us in the research! Do we even need to know how Astrologer Altlanta got to know about ALIEN’S LOCATION? Atlanta said she would prove everything publically either by an earlier date of each report or the Time Science report date.

  • Meet Ketan Sharma, a renowned astrologer who has helped over 5k people find their true love

    Meet Ketan Sharma, a renowned astrologer who has helped over 5k people find their true love

    Read Time:2 Minute, 28 Second

    September 13: According to the astrological data on Zodiac signs, certain pairs are intended to be together and will have a strong foundation for a happy marriage. People born under the Water sign get along well with those born under the Air, Fire, or Earth signs. Indeed, opposites attract. But it turns out that it can be quite helpful to know how well you get along with another sign and what to expect in terms of love. Astrologer Ketan Sharma shares his extensive understanding of the subject and how it may be used to help lovers find each other again.

    Q How does astrology help people rediscover their love

    Not only can astrology be used to produce accurate forecasts about a wide range of future events, but it can also be used to find answers to a wide range of challenges. Love issues are the most prevalent reason people seek help. Breakups, marital strife, and other relationship-related issues all fall under this category. Over the years, I’ve demonstrated that astrology may be used to solve these and other issues. Genuine affection, in my opinion, tends to circle back around. To help couples get back together and live happily ever after, I employ potent astrological remedies to remove obstacles off the path of genuine love. It’s because of this that people have started calling me “Love Problem Specialist.”

    Q What is your specialization in the astrological field?

    A- My specialization is in Kundli-making, matchmaking, love astrology, astrological cures for business challenges, overcoming financial problems, and career and education horoscope. Through my deep knowledge of astrology, I can make accurate predictions and provide solutions to get the desired outcome, something my clients vouch for.

    Q- Tell us more about the astrological solutions for business losses and growth.

    A – Business losses or lack of growth are the common problems being faced by people post-Pandemic. I use astrology to provide them with the right answers and the right solutions. Many times, being surrounded by negativity is a problem for many. I use time-tested methods such as havan and pooja and the scientific concepts or Vastu Shastra to find solutions.

    Q- Have you earned certification from reputed institutions?

    A – I am certified as Jyotish Bhushan, Jyotish Ratan, and Jyotish Prabhakar by the All India Federation of Astrologers’ Societies. I am offering astrological services not only in India but in several other countries, such as the US, UK, Canada, and Dubai. Till now, I have helped more than 5,000 people find true love. I am rated among the best five astrologers in Mohali (Chandigarh) and received prestigious accolades and honoured by the noted media group Voice of Asians.

The authority will make efforts to usher in harmony and unity in the diverse Hindu society. Apart from this, it will defeat the attacks on Sanatan Dharma (enteral religion) by religions having their origin in foreign countries. It will also strive to create a brave Hindu society and establish moral values in public life.

    September 12: In a world tormented by fears, insecurities, and a torrent of troubles, who is our saviour except for the Realized Master? In the spiritual, and particularly the Hindu tradition, for a devotee, his Guru is his only refuge. Leaving everything into the capable hands of his preceptor, a disciple can live a worry-free life.

    This was the crux of the discourse that well-known Ramayana exponent Morari Bapu started in the Tanzanian island of Zanzibar, which has deep historical and trade links with India. The famous tourist destination, also famous for spices, is where the nine-day Ram Katha discourse will now take place, each day, at Madinat Al Bahr, from Saturday, September 10 till September 18, from 10 am – 1 pm local time.

    Morari Bapu is a very famous expounder of the famous epic Ramayana written by Goswami Tulsidas. Normally, Bapu picks two lines from the epic and explains them in detail over 9-days adding context from the various sacred scriptures, anecdotes, folklore and more. The idea is to plant the root meaning of these lines and to understand their antecedent and relevance in the larger concept of the text as well as life. Morari Bapu, who is attributed with taking the Ramayana to the homes and hearts of the people all over India and the world, connects all teachings with morals and ideals that need to be incorporated into daily living to bring more joy and peace in people’s lives.

    In the Zanzibar Katha, spiritual luminary Morari Bapu picked the topic of “Manas Ramraksha”, pressing the point about unequivocal protection granted by God or our Guru, who is the sole and focal point of our faith. This would be Bapu’s 903rd discourse, a journey that started around 1960 when he was just 14 years old.

    The two lines picked for Zanzibar Ram Katha are:

    Sunu muni tohi kahau saharosa | bhajahi je mohi taji sakala bharosa ||

    Karau sada tinha kai rakhavari | jimi balaka rakhai mahatari ||

    (Listen, O sage: I tell you with all cheerfulness that those who exclusively adore Me, giving up all other expectations and hope, of those I always take care, even as a mother tends her child.) II Ram Charita Manas: Aranyakand – Doha 43 II

    Starting his address today in a rather unconventional way, Bapu first related the story of Aranyakand, the third canto of the Ramayana, and later picked the above lines though he normally begins his talk by singing the two central lines. During the narration, he emphasized the point of Shabari’s devotion where she is infused with joy at the meeting of Ram, but her greater reason for celebration is that her Guru’s words have come true that if she waited, the Sun among the Raghavas – Lord Ram, would one day himself walk up to her at her ashram. And true enough, Ram, during the period of exile, reaches Shabari’s ashram searching for his consort Sita, who has been abducted by the demon king Ravana. Ram then asks Shabari for aid which in turn directs him to the Pampa river and beyond, urging him to forge a friendship with Sugreeva.

    Having met Ram and thus fulfilling her lifelong dream, Shabari chooses for her body to be consumed by Yoga Agni than bear the pain of separation from the Lord.

    Moving to the central theme, Bapu said in a human being’s journey of life, during the foetal stage, God shields; as a baby, a mother is a protector; for a young boy, a father gives succour followed by his teacher and finally, in adulthood, it is a Realized Master who safeguards.

    Like during the attack of Meghanad, Ram’s monkey army was attacked from all directions, sometimes troubles completely corner us, at our faith in the Guru gives us courage and fortitude.

    Bapu has famously said that Dharma (moral code) comprises three simple basic virtues of ‘Truth, Love and Compassion. He preaches against indulging in envy, jealousy, and hatred of others, as well as unnecessary and unlimited accumulation of objects.

    Morari Bapu, who began his journey as a narrator of this grand epic at the age of 14, follows the two-track principles of “Bhajan Karo and Bhojan Karao”, i.e. to chant the holy name and serve food to others with respect. That is the reason the congregational discourse, which is being hosted by Nilesh and Rohita Jasani from Nairobi, will be followed by ‘prasad’ (lunch and dinner) daily for Katha attendees.
