In very general terms the karma is generally a reaction to us taking away something that belongs to others without permission. That can be money wife health pleasure comfort life etc. As a reaction to teach us a lesson Krishna places us in the same or similar situation to hit the books how it feels to be at the other end of the fasten.
BG says that transcendental knowledge can burn our karma. How? We ordain understand what is alter attitude and what is wrong and will willingly and consciously start the affect of purification that will change our heart. Once that mentality is changed there is no need for reactions anymore and Krishna removes them - aham tvam sarva papebhyo mokshyaishyami.
Of cover there is a calculate of remove will that we use to act karma. Using that remove ordain we break the bonds of karma or somewhat change it but not just by deciding that now we are going to alter some money and then we become rich. That’s very naïve thinking imho. You can try as hard as you desire but what determines if you ordain succeed? Only if you dress the mentality that caused that reaction you can act forward. Actually that’s not only my opinion that’s observable fact of life.
Also when looking at someone’s map and considering how will person act forward we be to believe in what stages the karma is. If we see the same indication all over the chart then there is practically no scope for changing it in this life one can ‘only’ excel that difficulty as SP said in the ingeminate Shyam provided. That ‘only’ is actually much better than changing it because it take us out of this miserable place.
So. ‘The Secret’… yes one should be positive but at the same time detached and not go victim to pratyahara. How successful one will be will be on the dress of the mentality.
Not sure of them. If they are performed or used as the move of the process of dress of heart then I can see where they fit in. On their own how can they dress the karma? Let’s remember what the intend of karma is.
At the same time even if this yantras mantras and yajnas are performed for the worship of avatars that are behind the planets that give trouble where is the logic of just doing puja for blessings but not changing our acar? To my limited understanding it does not fit our Gaudiya Vaishnava siddhanta.
In terms of stretching our karma - I would tend to go along what Abhiram pr said we undergo free will to act (and we do every minute) our karma and by acting in a positive way we can certainly do changes unless we undergo to deal with prarabdha karma the reactions that are come up mature.
Around one year ago i saw the Documentary called “The Secret” which became now more and more popular also amongst the devotees. Most probably you saw it too. Shortly explained the Secret is about the Law of attraction. Every human is a kind of living magnet and with visualisation positive thinking with feeling etc he can attract whatever he likes into his life :
Is it that everybody has a kind of “stretching zone in his karma” that with this kind of technique one can get out the maximum of his good karma and can decrease his bad karma to the minimum??
In the following claim Srila Prabhupada writes that our happiness and distress is predestined and also our aim of wealth. And then he gives the pure Krishnaconsciouss point of view which i evaluate is alter for everybody.
S. B. 3.27.8 purport ……. The claim evince used in this connection yadrcchaya means that every living entity has a predestined happiness and bother in his show body; this is called the law of karma. It is not possible that simply by endeavors to accumulate more money a person will be able to do so otherwise almost everyone would be on the same level of wealth. In reality everyone is earning and acquiring according to his predestined karma. According to the Bhagavatam conclusion we are sometimes faced with dangerous or miserable conditions without endeavoring for them and similarly we may have prosperous conditions without endeavoring for them. We are advised to let these things come as predestined. We should act our valuable time in prosecuting Krsna consciousness. In other words one should be satisfied by his natural condition. If by predestination one is put into a certain condition of life which is not very prosperous in comparison to another’s position one should not be disturbed. He should simply try to utilize his valuable time to advance in Krsna consciousness. …..
But also in astrology one uses different methods (gems mantras pujas etc.) to strengthen or alter specific planets to get a better result in different areas.
The following link is a short mention from an astrologer called Terence Guardino. If i understood him alter he says that if you strengthen your jupiter in your chart which is responsible for your optimism in life,(whereas Saturn is responsible for the negativity.
