Analysis of Impulse govern choice



World at stage in ones act
infectious comedy naming facts
trapped in mirror of shadows
cannot escape from living arrows

eternal promised union
virtues holy communion
subtle melodies refrain
loving texture in time

By studying Astrology it created the passion and love for the ancient knowledge of the Vedas.
