[Shri Divakara Rao asked: Padanamaskaram Swami, In Datta Veda, You said that "The human being born in this world is not subjected to any punishment of the sin done in the previous birth. When the soul comes into this world from hell, all the punishments of previous sins were completed and the soul is temporarily reformed" (Page no 138 first paragraph- for devotees reference). Then why does 7.5 years of elinati sani comes for human as per astrology? I heard that 7.5 yeas of elinati sani is nothing but fruits of previous birth deeds done by souls. Please clarify this point Swami. Thanking You. By Divakara rao]
Swami replied:- Even though the punishments are finished in hell, karmashesha, which is the same ratio of qualities in reduced intensity remains with the soul, which performs new deeds guided by the intensified karmashesha in this birth. Several serious deeds exist in the present cycle, the results of which are to be enjoyed here itself and such deeds are indicated by the seven and half years Shani that comes in gochaara for every 30 yrs. cycle. These bad deeds give suffering through which the spiritual knowledge is gained because Shani is Jnaana kaaraka. “By My grace, difficulties come and by My anger, happiness comes”—Datta Veda.
