Previous birth (Poorva Janma Kandam)

Nadi astrology is an ancient system of predictions that provides profound insights into an individual’s life, including their past, present, and future. Among the various kandams or chapters, the Poorva Janma Kandam is one of the most significant as it reveals details about a person’s previous birth. This chapter explains the karma carried forward from the past life, the deeds performed, and how they influence the present circumstances. It is believed that every soul undergoes multiple births, and each life is shaped by the karmic actions of the past. This chapter not only unveils past-life events but also helps individuals understand the root cause of their present struggles, relationships, successes, and failures.

According to Nadi astrology, the records of past lives were written by great sages (Rishis) through divine intuition. These records were preserved on ancient palm leaves and are accessible only to those who are destined to find them. The Poorva Janma Kandam specifically narrates details about one’s previous birth, including the name, place, social status, family, profession, and key events. It provides insights into the type of life lived, the nature of good and bad karma accumulated, and how these actions have manifested in the current life. The karmic influence of past deeds is deeply ingrained in an individual’s journey, affecting relationships, health, wealth, and overall destiny.

Many people experience unexplained suffering, obstacles, or blessings in their present life that seem to have no logical reasoning. Some individuals may face continuous hardships despite their efforts, while others may receive unexpected fortunes without apparent cause. The Poorva Janma Kandam sheds light on such mysteries by revealing the karmic consequences of the past. If a person had committed good deeds, helped the needy, performed spiritual acts, or lived a righteous life, the present life is likely to be blessed with prosperity and happiness. Conversely, if the past life was filled with wrongdoings, deceit, betrayal, or harm to others, the present life may be burdened with struggles, losses, or health issues as a result of karmic retribution.

This chapter also explains relationships carried over from the past. Some people form deep emotional connections instantly, while others face conflicts and misunderstandings with certain individuals. This is often linked to past-life associations. A person who was a parent, sibling, spouse, or close friend in a previous birth may reincarnate in a different form to complete unfinished karmic cycles. Similarly, adversaries or those who were wronged may reappear to settle past karmic debts. Understanding these relationships through Nadi astrology helps individuals deal with them more wisely, leading to greater harmony and peace.
