In this book, the author has tried to present a case for astrology, and to refute the charge that a belief in astrology implies a belief in fatalism which in its turn paralyses human endeavour and retards human progress. Fate and Freewill are relative terms. There is a good deal of misunderstanding and wrong notions about astrology, Karma etc., due partly to ignorance, partly to indifference and mainly to preconceived opinions. The author has tried to prove that the concept of Karma Theory is not a wishful imagination but a product of daring thinking based upon cause-effect relationship so clearly discernible in physical phenomena. In fact, the author has tried to link up traditional philosophy with modern scientific thought. The new concept about space, time, matter and universe have after all revealed that astrology marks the relationship between man’s conscious ego and what we call Nature.
