The Upright Readings

perseverance, rushed decision, turmoil, vengeance, adversity, Control, willpower, success, action, determination

This card is a 'Yes' positive card. The one whose life-chariot is Lord Krishna himself, he will never have to face defeat in life. You have immense firmness and determination. You are very firm on your thoughts, you always see the result. If someone unnecessarily harasses you, you do not hesitate to take vengeance. Like a warrior, you answer with a stone. Your way of life is not easy. Your life is full of adversity. But you know very well how to control life even in the face of adversity. Like Arjuna, whose Chariot is Krishna, your willpower is very strong. You are not afraid to take any kind of action for success because your resolutions are determined. No matter how much upheaval it may be.

The Reverse Readings

vanquishment, defeat, failure, unsuccessful, Self-discipline, opposition, lack of direction

Even if you win, you will be defeated. This has deep meaning, Pandavas and Krishna won the war, but they lost brothers, gurus, relatives, and most loved ones. That means on a large scale Pandavas lost everything.

Millions of people died in the war. They got the kingdom but it was now the kingdom of dead bodies. It is a failure on a very big canvas. Self-discipline may have led us to the victory, but this victory is useless. One has to think about this. There will be many to oppose for the sake of opposing, but there is rare mentor like Chakradhar. Listen to your inner voice. God will not always guide you. Otherwise, lack of direction will take out your peace of mind.

The Chariot

The Chariot is a wonderful card to know about. After studying this European card my first reaction was,’ how one can chariot a sitting sphinx? tarot.ideazunlimited.net.skimph

Meaning of the Chariot is a two or four-wheeled vehicle drawn by two or more horses, used in ancient racing and warfare.

Here the European artist was unable to understand the basic meaning of the Chariot.

Since the tarot card traveled from India to Greece through Egypt, it has an obvious influence on Egyptian culture.

It was funny to see a person, trying to drive a cart with two firmly grounded sphinxes, seating in a lion position.

He is holding something like a magic wand in his right arm. tarot.ideazunlimited.net.ambari/hauda

He has a costume of a warrior but does not carry any weapon. He is standing still, not having any movement of traveling or holding halter to control his sphinx. Rather sphinxes are not connected with the chariot by any means creating an illusion as if a warrior-looking person is in the chariot.

The chariot must have wheels to move, but this vehicle is rigid. The interior of the Chariot is actually -Howdah- on Elephant. ↑As shown in the image above.

Now study the original Ancient Indian Chariot Tarot card.

Lord Krishna is the guiding force behind the horses. The Chariot is in its full swing. Means Lord Krishna is the driving force of your life.

The worrier is carrying his weapons. Four white horses are at full speed. Arjun the worrier is aiming at someone riding on the chariot, guided by Lord Krishna.

This still is from Mahabharata. It has a very auspicious image because on the battlefield ‘Gita’ was told by Lord Krishna to Arjun.

The importance of the Gita is like the Holy Bible for Christians, the Holy Quran for Muslims.

‘Gita’ is a philosophy of life, nothing religious. Anyone can read it from any page and follow the life philosophy.

(Few words about Gita.)

The blind King Dhritarashtra asks Sanjaya to recount what happened when his loved ones, the Kauravas, assembled to fight the Pandavas for Hastinapura. His family is not the rightful heir to the kingdom, but they’ve assumed power, and Dhritarashtra is attempting to preserve it for his son Duryodhana. Sanjaya informs of Arjuna, who has come as boss of the Pandavas to return his kingdom, with Sri Krishna as his charioteer. The Gita is the dialogue between Krishna and Arjuna leading up to the struggle.

Arjuna does not want to fight. He does not know why he has to lose his family’s blood for a kingdom he does not necessarily want. In his eyes, murdering his wicked and killing his family is the greatest sin of all. He casts his weapons down and tells Krishna that he won’t fight. Krishna, then, begins the systematic process of explaining why Arjuna must fight and how he has to fight to restore his karma.

Krishna first clarifies the cycle of birth and death. He states there is no real death of the soul — simply a sloughing of the body after every round of birth and death. This cycle intends to allow someone to work off their karma accumulated through lifetimes of activity. Suppose a person completes training selflessly, in service to God. If that’s the instance, they could work off their karma, finally resulting in a dissolution of the spirit, the achievement of enlightenment, and an end to the cycle. Should they behave selfishly, they keep accumulating debt, putting them farther into karmic debt.

Krishna presents three major theories for achieving this dissolution of the soul — renunciation, selfless service, and meditation. All three are components for attaining yoga,’ or ability in action. Krishna says that the truly divine-human doesn’t renounce all worldly possessions or give up the work but instead finds peace in completing a step in the full service to God. Because of this, someone must avoid the various traps of the three-step of emotions Gunas: rajas anger (self), tamas (ignorance, darkness), and sattva (stability, purity).

The maximum type of meditation comes when individuals could free themselves from selfish action and focus entirely on the divine in their attempts. To put it differently, Krishna says that he who accomplishes divine union with him in meditation will finally find freedom from the endless cycle of rebirth and death.

Arjuna stills appear to need evidence of Krishna’s divine powers, so Arjuna seems to him in his strong, most sacred form, together with the” power of one thousand suns.” Seeing Krishna in his divine state, Arjuna suddenly realizes what enlightenment could bring him in the marriage, and he completely has faith in the yogic path. He goes on to ask Krishna can he obtain the love of God, and Krishna shows that love comes from an individual’s selfless devotion to the divine, as well as an understanding that the body is simply ephemeral; a product of nature, and is subject to endless rebirth. An individual must forego their body’s cravings and cravings and aversions to locate freedom.

The Gita ends with Krishna telling Arjuna he should pick the path of good or evil, as he must resist the Kauravas for his kingdom. In that, he’s adjusting the balance of good and evil, fulfilling his dharma, and offering the deepest type of selfless service. Arjuna knows and, with that, profits into battle.
