True Religion and the aptness of using the Amulets, Spells, Sorcery and the Astronomy.

"Perfections are born or produced through Birth, Drugs, Spells, Austerity and Trances". If we relate astrology to birth, sorcery to medicine, austerity to the amulets and trances to True Religion, then we are able to understand that the amulets, spells, sorcery, astrology and the True Religion all are sources and supplements to the perfection.

"Quest for the salvation is True Religion". Its sole aim is to provide happiness to all the creatures and emancipation to the virtuous souls.

Amulets are mystical or astronomical figures which are supposed to perform occult operations. These are powerful capsules, which contain the treasure of mystical powers.

Spells are magical formulas used for repetition to produce Divine effects. Spells are also described as a protective instrument of the desires of the mind and a bridge between the devotee and the deity.

Sorcery is expressed as that which teaches the magical and the mystical formularies for the worship of the deities or the attainment of superhuman powers. It is also described as that which exposes the necessary behavioral knowledge or religious observances for the attainment of the God and Divine state.

Astrology is expressed as the art or science or skill of the influence of the Stars and the Planets on humans and terrestrial affairs.

All of these claim to have superhuman effects. The use of these magical arts is not denied if used for a worthy purpose and in a healthy way. However, every harmful and objectionable activities and observances or practices should be well avoided.

From the aptness point of view, it is  concluded that all of them provide and assist for happiness in one way or the other. Nevertheless the True Religion is the direct source of emancipation,  whereas all the others are merely associative elements for the attainment of the emancipation.

Hence, the use of these skills in present day context is not bad until they are being used for a worthy cause and in a proper manner. Their improper utilization is the only thing which is to be avoided.
