The Bhagavad Gita & the Bush Agenda
     The Bhagavad Gita, mentioned above, is a spiritual guide set at the onset of a terrible internecine war for the throne.  It is the discourse on which Gandhi based his political philosophy and activism.  In the Gita, Lord Krishna explains to the leading charioteer, Arjuna, that doing the right thing, seeing and acting upon the truth, is the essence of living, of one's dharma.  This is the basis of spiritual life.  The timeless Gita’s context of a split family on the eve of combat is compelling.  It relates well today to our American split family, in which the Republican imper- ial class misuses power through well-funded charismatic demagoguery intended to permanently impoverish and disenfranchise the working classes - the rest of us.
      The Bush administration’s lies and accompanying misuse of power inevitably impact us all, an alarming karmic flood that cannot be ignored without peril or meditated away.  It is increasingly difficult for spiritual citizens to sit on the sidelines and work only with those of a peaceful, non-confrontational bent seeking self-realization.  Spiritual citizenship requires right action for truth in the public arena to fulfill one's dharma of duty to self and community.  The law of karma is undeniable.  Failure to perform ones dharma will reflexively spring- board back to harmful karma, personally and collectively.  

Vedic Predictions for the Bush's Downfall
     This Vedic predictor devotes the majority of his time to mundane (world) forecasting, and paid Forecast Subscriptions support this work.  Fate guides the effort, understood through study of his own Vedic chart, for forecasting flows with the karmic tide of his dharmic duty as a spiritual citizen.  This focus was launched incidentally, even though karma governs all incidents, by predicting on September 7, 2001, "There may also be some religious fanaticism, aggravating the situation -Mideast stuff?  I see 9/10 to 9/14 as being really bizarre."  National recognition encouraged the addition of forecasting to bread-and-butter chart consultations.
     A series of now 21 Forecasts was initiated in July 2002 alerting the public to President Bush's: fated rise and fall, his lying, ruthlessness and violence and his great misadventure of invading Iraq that initiates his disgrace. 
     As these Forecasts anticipated the ill-fated path ahead for our country, they have provided an opportunity for spiritual citizens to combat and contain Bush's negative karma, to stop the drowning flood at its source.

[Present day Iraq locates the biblical Garden Of Eden.  A karmic implication is that Bush's current cycle of Rahu (an astronomical eclipse point and insanely greedy head of a snake in Hindu mythology) brings him to the serpent.  God (truth) then casts Bush out of his paradise of tainted power.]

The Time For Truth Has Arrived
     More recent Vedic predictions maintain that Bush is already beginning to reap the predicted karmas from manipulating the truth to justify his invasion of Iraq.
     Overseas, resistant influences against US policies include: people and terrorist groups in Arab and other Islamic countries, the people and governments in most western democracies, rogue govern- ments worldwide, even Russia and China.
     At home, there’s resurgence of spiritual citizenship protesting the Bush imperialist flood, accompanied by gradual but inevitable agree- ment from pundits, scholars and politicians that Bush lied about Iraq.  Although widespread spiritual citizenship activism opposing the inva- sion of Iraq failed, and many remain disappointed and depressed into inaction, the movement is rapidly regrouping, for the truth will not be denied.  
    Spiritual citizenship is using technology in creating an effective grass-roots  democratic platform opposing Bush’s deceptive strategic philosophy and misleading tactical policies.  Astrologically, Mars (machines), Saturn (technical) and Rahu (science) are currently prominent in the natural zodiac.  They stimulate communications and media tech- nology - primarily the internet, but also expanding cable/satellite coverage, cell phones... that truly empower spiritual citizenship.
     Even in the mainstream media, long spoon-fed Bush’s inventions 
of immanent attacks by terrorist groups and rogue governments to justify his imperialism and divert attention from the failing economy, is questioning  Bush because of pressure from spiritual citizenship. Reflexively, politicians on both sides of the aisle are covering their positions by researching whether Bush lied about Iraq having weapons of mass destruction.  Perhaps a real leader will even emerge from this process.
    Provocatively, Nixon’s nearly 1 1/2 year time-line to his resignation (Nixon lied about Watergate cover-up April 1973 and the resignation occurred in August 1974) is comparable to Bush’s emerging time-line of lies to disgrace.  Bush began manipulating intelligence information about Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction in August 2002 and is predicted to resign or be impeached in November of this year, 1 1/3 years.  Given accelerated change enabled by expansion and speed of communications since the early 70’s, Bush’s time-line could be further compressed from Nixon’s.

The Means Never Justify An End
     A seldom heard concept is that the means never justify the end.  (It is true, however, that journalists and politicians blindly use this justifi- cation, so patriotically  authoritative has the President's influence been.)
