Please guide me in my career.

[Amudha asked: Pāda Namaskaaram, Swami, These thoughts keep going on in my mind, Swami. I keep thinking repeatedly about changing my workplace, considering either Hyderabad or Bangalore.

Swami, I’ve been very stressed, and one of my friends suggested that I visit an astrologer. Recently, my mind and actions have not been logical or useful...(Click here to read full question) to either worldly life or spiritual progress. She asked me to visit, so I did, and after consulting with the astrologer, he also advised me to change my workplace. Please forgive me, Swami, for whatever I have displeased You with, knowingly or unknowingly. Please keep me always at Your Feet. I also find myself getting angry at myself and my mother, becoming irritated, but I am trying to remain calm by listening to Bhajans during those moments. I occasionally feel low, and I am taking support from Smt. Devi ma'am, Ms. Thrylokya, and Shri Phani Anna, but I still feel that I am lacking in my actions. Please guide me, Swami. At Your Divine Lotus Feet, Amudha]

Swami replied:- There is a saying that even if you go to Rameshwaram, Shanaishcaram will not leave you. By change of place, you may avoid certain human beings but not the planets. They will give their results wherever you are present on this earth. The planet or graha means that which catches you at any place when a proper fruit (fruit of your past actions) is to be given to you (Grṛhṇāti iti grahaḥ). You chant the mantra “Shri Anjaneya Shri Subrahmanya” one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening before the photos of God Hanuman and God Subrahmanya. All your worldly problems will be solved immediately.
