Garuda Purana has special significance in Hinduism. It is not only limited to death and journey of soul, but it also has a detailed mention of the direction of living, morality, deeds and signs to come. It is told in the Garuda Purana that bad times never come suddenly, but the universe starts giving us some indications beforehand. Understanding these signs, we can already be conscious about the problems faced. Today, when every person is going through mental, economic or family crisis in some form or the other, these knowledge and signs of Garuda Purana can help us get out of that darkness.
Why does bad times come?
According to Garuda Purana, bad time in life comes on the basis of our actions. If a person has hurting injustice, deceit, sin or someone’s feelings in his life, then it directly affects his life. Many times, despite good deeds, a person gets caught in troubles. The reason for this can be- the deeds of the previous birth, the movement of the planets or the spiritual examination. It is also said in the Garuda Purana that when God wants to test someone, first of all his life gradually starts to help and support.
Signs of bad times mentioned in Garuda Purana
1. Repeated mind of mind
According to the Garuda Purana, when a person starts feeling worried, restless or stressed without any reason, it shows that some mental or spiritual imbalances have begun. This can be the first sign of bad times.
2. Crack in relationships
When your own family or friend slowly starts to get away from you, or repeated quarrels and misunderstandings, it shows that a negative energy is affecting your life.
