The Cosmic Plan
When we look for guidance in how to construct our
everyday lives, we need to answer the central question
of self: What are my dreams and desires? And that can
only be answered by asking, in addition, Who am I ? What
do I want? What's my purpose in this lifetime?
We know that our deepest relationships and meanings and
contexts derive from the soul. And our aspiration, that
grand and wonderful and mythical thing that we yearn to
do, also ultimately derives from the soul. In our time
here on earth, this individual soul will not be
fulfilled unless it completes its mythical quest, which
we can think of as the Grand Plan around which our
destinies are organized. Inside every human being
there is an overarching theme, a template for heroic
living, a god or a goddess in embryo that yearns to be
born. This is who we were meant to be, the self that we
deny ourselves because most of us cannot see the field
of limitless potential that is open to us. This is our
best self, the egoless self, that bit of the universe
acting through us for the good of all.
People who live ordinary, mundane lives have not gotten
in touch with the mythical being, inside them. You can
pave the path to enlightenment by understanding the plan
written on your soul, by nurturing the relationships
that give you context and meanings, and by enacting your
compassion. Out of that comes fulfillment and
completion.

1. Introduction
When you have finished this article, I hope you will have an idea
that there exists something like a Cosmic Plan. It is our destiny to
unravel and follow this Cosmic Plan. On this eternal journey of the
soul you will get guidance and signs of the infinite intelligence,
which creates all the galaxies full of life.
How more you are in tune with your destiny, the more you will enjoy
this journey full of wonder, surprises and cosmic jokes. I will use
astrology, an ancient science, to prove that this Cosmic Plan exists
and partially how its work. The examples are from my own life.
The
soul chooses the exact right time and place to be born
(Continuation of
spiritual astrology I. If you
are new to astrology it may help to read that part first).
As told in spiritual astrology I, all the spiritual women I have
met, as my soul sisters, have the same astrological aspects
in their horoscopes as I have in my horoscope and also in our composite
(energy together) horoscope. We have also met
at the time predicted by the astrological transits (see later).
It is in itself already a miracle that this
energy finds each other at the right place and time, but there
are perhaps hundreds (or more) of these kind of women in the world.
 But
to meet a great master as Osho is rare.
The only explanation I can see is that my soul
has chosen the exact right time and place to be born.
This caused the great attraction to Osho (which
is very strong in my composite horoscope with Osho). But also seen
from the dynamic astrological viewpoint, a whole series of transits
(the horoscope unfolding in time) has made the entire transformation
in my being possible at this particular and short time window when
Osho was there in the body and in Poona I. I elaborate it in more
detail here, because I see this as not only as a strong scientific
proof of the validity of astrology, but even more so as a scientific evidence of the
incredible infinite intelligence which guides our life.
The
Incredible Infinite Intelligence which guides our life
In the spiritual development of humankind we have
reached a moment where science and spirituality are meeting and
reaching to the same point. The movie:
'What the Bleep do we know' is a great example of this,
but also e.g. the book
'Synchro-destiny' of Deepak Chopra, combines quantum physics with
ancient Vedanta knowledge.
I have
worked a lot with mathematical modeling and I use here the same
methodology to prove that there must exist an incredible infinite
intelligence who guides our life. I know a lot about statistical techniques too and
there is NO WAY that this all can be coincidental.
2. The astrological transits: unique
moments in time for spiritual growth
The horoscope unfolding in time is called the
transits. The planets, the sun and moon which are
actually in the sky make a certain aspect with the sun, moon or planets and in
our birth cart. This gives unique possibilities for growth, sometimes
very smooth, just going with the cosmic flow.
Sometimes transits are more challenging yet important lessons, in
which we are urged to leave a lot of the old and outdated
conditionings behind. As long we don't fight these energies, both
kind of transits will always be helpful in the course of our life.
I will use a time
period of
my own life as a case study to enlighten how spiritual astrology
works in my life. In this case how I started a complete new life
by becoming a disciple of Osho.
Starting a new life: Uranus
 The
whole process of leaving everything behind me and starting a new
life (a central theme also in the life of most of my soul sisters)
started in 1978 with one of the strongest life-changing transits you can have (mostly between
the age 39-43): Uranus
opposite Uranus. If you go with this energy you will be
blessed in many ways by this infinite intelligence, and miracles can
happen. Almost everything you wish for or
can dream about is provided in abundance. I can give MANY examples
of it, but the most striking one is this one: I did a spiritual growth group in which
in which we were asked to make a list of all the things we wished
for if miracles would be possible without limitations. Note well: at that moment I was
working as a chemical engineer, married, kids, own house with a mortgage
and so on. All the normal things. I wrote a whole list down, with
many really impossible wishes seen from a normal and
logical viewpoint. Ten years later I found, cleaning an old
cupboard, this list again and EVERYTHING had been realized. That
attracted me so much to Osho when I stumbled upon his book: 'Be
realistic, plan for a miracle!' I immediately understood this
cosmic sign!
Now or never!
Again I will emphasize the great importance of
going with your inner voice, seeing the signs and finding your destiny. I have seen
several people missing these important transits (and they are not
more there next month or next year, so now or never!) A great
opportunity for development may be missed by ignoring the inner
voice that we, deep down, all know so well. And when you miss it,
often strong Uranus transits and also Pluto transits, (see later)
work out through depression, burn out, disease and all kinds of
'set-backs' which seemingly come from outside.
 Pluto
the Goddess Kali under the planets: transformation. Kali mostly
works though destroying all that does not need to be carried any
longer, yet she always works through immense compassion.
After my Uranus transit, another very strong (and sometimes even
deadly) transit started: Pluto opposite Sun. Depending on how you
use this Pluto energy, it can be a time of great inner and outer
transformation. Leaving behind what we are used to is almost
inevitable under this transit, but you can see it as a blessing
because all the things that are not more relevant in your life are
rigorously removed. In this way you can start anew. Resisting these
powerful Kali/Pluto energies may result in all sorts of, often
serious, discomfort, as mentioned earlier. These strong Uranus
and Pluto transits are doing their work anyhow, better to
consciously detach than to resist it in vain. In any case, this
powerful energy will be life-changing.
(and the transit under which it happened)
The key to a life in abundance and happiness
I am in wonder seeing the perfect way existences'
interrelatedness and synchronicity. It shows my whole
life in such a completely different perspective. Instead of a lot of
seemingly accidental happenings everything seems to be so well laid
out.
Being conscious of the infinite interrelatedness of all things,
opens the heart and reveals intuition versus living from fixed
ideas. A life lived intuitively from the heart, is the key to a life
lived in abundance and happiness.
3. Important places for
spiritual growth: astro-cartography
(This is a new part added much later. It makes it
even more wonderful!)
Today Guru Purnima 2012 (the Full Moon day in
July when we celebrate our Master / Teachers/ Guides all over the
world), bathing in Osho's grace, I got new insights and saw
the connections between all what is happening in our lives in a new
astonishing way.
There is another way to look at a horoscope,
called
astro-cartography. The horoscope is projected on the
globe and this gives a good indication which locations are important
to enhance a certain planetary energy, including the Sun and Moon.
The transits
give a good indication WHEN and HOW to act because, the cosmic
energies can be strong and beneficially enhanced under certain transits.
The astro-cartography map gives a good indication WHERE to be
on the globe to enhance
the cosmic energies for us.
The outcome has been perplexing and mystifying
 A
friend of me asked me about the best places to go for spiritual
growth. I have not much experience in this field of astro-cartography,
and there is almost no good literature on this
theme. I have done a lot of research as a scientist,
therefore I started examining my own horoscope.
The outcome has been perplexing and mystifying.
Almost all the places I have been on my spiritual journeys showed up on my astro-cartography map (click on the map to enlarge) and
also almost all the places where I still still anticipate to visit.
I found 94 locations that are interesting for me! And this is
scientific,
because the results of the calculations are actual location
coordinates, like 24N47 77E17. Note: for my research I have used
detailed astro-cartography maps of selected continents, combined with
detailed maps of Google with accurate coordinates.
India and Osho (Moon)
(Picture sunset over the Poona river)
I felt of course blessed when I saw in my astro-cartography
map
how significant India and Osho (Poona) are there on my Moon line.
In
this case the Moon line indicates locations where your soul
(spiritual) energy can be empowered. On a lower level it can also
be a good place to dissolve emotional hang-ups, especially related to the mother.
The astro-cartography map indicates strongly Osho's spiritual
commune in Poona, which is a meditation center with almost unlimited
possibilities for raising consciousness in human beings. At one time in my life,
this center has been very important for my spiritual development.
Other places on my Moon line are Mahabaleshwar
where I met another spiritual Master Dada . Also Goa (Benaulim) where I met my spiritual friend Thi
Hoang, Udaipur and Agra, where I had breathtaking mystical
experiences during full moon. (Moon line!)
I don't want to go in details here, but the
position of the moon and the aspects with the moon in your birth
horoscope influences to which kind of country or place you
feel attracted to. In my case my moon is in Sagittarius, ruled by Jupiter indicates these
kind of countries/places.
Heart to heart or soul to soul
According to the sparse literature on astro-cartography, if you
connect heart to heart or soul to soul with another being at that
for you specific place, the energy of that place will stay with you.
The energy permeates your being, so to speak, and may leave vivid
images in the memory.
One image that I am reminded of right now is the one of this
magnificent lake of Udaipur with in the midst at fairytale-like
palace, surrounded by palaces of Maharajas. I remember the sun
slowly setting and a flock of white birds started circling over the
lake in the last beams of sun light. Then the birds slowly descended
on the lake in a graceful dance, in complete synchronicity as one
being. After that from the other side a HUGE full moon rose in all
her majesty and mysticism. Then a flock of bats started circling
before the slowly rising full moon. These are just words that
describe only a little of the miracle of being there at that special
moment. Oftentimes, these mysterious miracle moments contain
profound messages from within at the same time. These messages must
not be ignored and may be clear pointers. You will know it.
How wonderful this guidance is to the right place
at the right time
I realized that there is an infinite
creative intelligence, which orchestrates everything so perfect from the
creation of galaxies with so many life forms to guiding us to the
right place at the right time to explore and discover new
avenues. My name Deva Deep means in Chinese characters: explorer of
the heavens and the earth and yes that is how I feel.
 To give another example of this perfect guidance:
From Osho I knew that he lived in Poona. But this has not been the
case with Dada. When I was visiting Mahabaleshwar, a hill resort not
far from Poona, I walked through the woods, came at a bamboo hut, somebody opened the door and asked surprised:
"How did you know I am here?" Of course 'I' didn't know and it
turned out to be Dada, a spiritual Master, usually guiding people in the
USA.
To take a break Dada went for three months in retreat in this hut.
He said: "I recognize the fact that you have found me as a sign
that you have to be here with me", and I received three private
satsangs from him. Later I did an audio project for Dada. The next
year I went again to Mahabahleswar, walked into a hotel and at the
same moment Dada walked in too. He had been as surprised as I was.
On this website there is a whole series of
examples of these spiritual places, beings, temples and so on, just
calling us. We only have to listen to our inner voice/heart and to
go without hesitation. This explains these amazing 94 places on my
astro-cartography map of which I have visited most places, just by
listening to these calls.
Never think in terms as: "I can't go because I have no time, money
or opportunity to go there."
Doubt or/and fear are your worst enemies. They keep you small and
insignificant.
I have met several frustrated people because they missed Osho by al
kind of trivial reasons. This reminds me of the following quote:
“The poorest man in the world is the man without a dream. The most
frustrated man in the world is the man with a dream that never
becomes reality.” (Myles Munroe).
If
you trust and follow this inner calling
everything will be supplied by the universal principle of abundance.
In
this dimension miracles are common, yet never to take for granted
Rajneeshpuram (Chiron)
What
I found here in my astro-cartography becomes even more miraculous
for me. Rajneeshpuram, the ranch/commune where Osho stayed after
India, is close to Antelope in Orgeon, USA. This place is also on my
astro-cartography map. Imagine Antelope a totally insignificant
settlement of 46 inhabitants in the USA. Who could ever predict that
I would go there one day to meet Osho again. But
it is there on my map.
My
Chiron(-ascendant) line, the asteroid of the Master, goes through
Antelope. Chiron is also the wound in the soul and what happened to
Osho there, had a deep impact on me and many of his disciples, as
well as on the inhabitants of Antelope. At my first meeting with
Sheela (the woman who had been in charge of the commune), I
instantly saw that she was misusing her power position.
Kathmandu - Mahabhalipuram - Pondicherry
- Thanjavur - Madurai (Chiron)
The
following makes it still more mysterious and interesting: My
Chiron(-Descendant) line leads through Kathmandu - Mahabhalipuram -
Pondicherry - Thanjavur. My Mercury line through Madurai. I have
noticed that several times these sacred sites are situated on the
same horizontal or vertical line. But in my case, this Chiron line
is an arc and these places are all very special sacred sites, which
to my amazement I have visited all.
Pondicherry - Auroville is the ashram and MahaSamadhi of Sri
Aurobindo, the first Master in my life. I have been completely
immersed in his teachings. I remember well reading his book on the
magical island of Ibiza (in 1971 still unspoiled). It changed my
life completely. It has been the start of the conscious part of my
spiritual journey in this lifetime. Several temples in the other
places made also a profound imprint on my soul-body.
These sacred Hindu sites go far back in time into
a mysterious past full of Hindu deities. I am happy that I could
catch this special atmosphere in photos, which can be again a
method to stay connected to this almost primordial energy and share
it with the world.
There is no way to explain this all. In this
dimension miracles are common as I have experienced so many times.
 I have on my
astro-cartography map more sacred places in
India, which I have visited. These two I want to mention also: Rishikesh where I met another spiritual Master
ShantiMayi and
her Master Maharajji and Dharmsala where I met the Dalai Lama. In
all these cases, as with Osho and Dada, I have helped to spread the
spiritual messages further by several kinds of multi
media. These two places are on my Mercury (=communication)
line.
Therefore it has been relatively easy to go to
other places in Asia, when the people in charge of worldly aspects of ShantiMay's sangha (on the same kind of power trip as Sheela), made
it impossible for me to make more movies. My
asia-pictures
website is the direct result of journeying to other Asian countries
after Rishikesh.
Sadly I have seen these kind of power trips
happening a lot around spiritual Masters. This spiritual journey
website started when Osho asked me in a vision in the Sinai desert
to start publishing about him, in spite of a strong guarded
copyright. Of course again with a powerful spiritual transit and location. This is the way it works.
There are too many experiences to write them here. I just felt
giving you a taste of our divine interrelatedness in the cosmic plan
through some of my direct experiences.
I saw in more detail how everything is so
magnificently orchestrated and guided by this infinite intelligence
in the Cosmic Plan.
That this would show up in such precise detail and that so much of
what mattered in my life, was already in my birth horoscope, I never
contemplated that. I am still perplexed.
Love and blessings
