Ranga's Marriage
“There’s greater truth in the shastra than we imagine”, said Ranga. What does this statement tell about his mind?
Ranga could never realise that what Shastri told them about his marriage was just a stage-managed acting. Shastri did and said what he was tutored to do and say. But Ranga was totally impressed by Shastri’s predictions. They suited him. So he declared that astrology was a science. The shastra contained greater truth than people imagined.
