Aspire for a victorious journey to your life's goal, along the path of your destiny. Know your destiny and all its crossroads and ups and downs, and live like a Master.
Fate is a word I do not want to use. I think no one should be a fatalist. The better word is destiny. It is an unseen force, which is an emanation from the Divine, the Supreme. The closer one with the Divine, the more is the destiny under his control.
According to different schools of Indian Philosophy, one's destiny is also modified by one's Karma. To become the Master of one's destiny and karma, one has to rise above his ordinary blind ignorant self to the height of his Higher and Divine Self. This is obviously a very difficult and hard task.
What about those who can not rise to that height? They can know their destiny through Astrology, they can take precautions, measures which can modify or control one's destiny to some extent, or to a great extent.
