My son has stepped into +2 in Narayana PU College in Bangalore, he is interested in Astronomy and studying hard for JEE Mains. His target is IIT for astrophysics. 1. Can you suggest me which IIT is better for Astrophysics. 2. Alternative Course or College without JEE Marks for Astrophysics.

Ans: Velavan Sir, to get admission into Engineering Physics in any one of the top 4-5 IITs, your son should score below AIR-4500 in JEE Advanced though the Closing Rank for Engineering Physics for other IITs is around AIR-17-18000. After completing his UG in Physics or Engineering Physics, he can try for his PG/PhD in Astrophysics with Indian Institute of Astrophyics, Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA) & Raman Research Institute. Abroad universities offer undergraduate and postgraduate programs in Astrophysics with entrance exams like SAT, bypassing JEE.
All the Best for your Son's Prosperous Future, Sir.

Hi mam, I am 43 yrs old. I don't feel hungry at all for past 10 yrs. I am doing kapalapathi, anulom vilom, bramri and yoga poses. I drink more than 3 litres of water every day. I have gastric problems. Can you please help me?
Ans: It looks like your digestion is weak, which is why you don’t feel hungry. Even though you are drinking enough water and practicing yoga, your gastric issues are still there. This means your body needs extra care.

First, check if you are overeating at one time or eating without real hunger. Try eating small meals at regular intervals. Include warm, home-cooked food that is easy to digest. Avoid raw vegetables, cold drinks, and spicy or oily food, as these can increase gastric problems.

Since you are already practicing kapalabhati and anulom vilom, reduce kapalabhati if you feel bloated. Instead, do Agnisar Kriya and Uddiyana Bandha under the guidance of a yoga expert. These techniques help strengthen digestion and improve appetite. Also, Vajrasana after meals will support digestion.

Daily morning walks in sunlight can help balance your digestion and improve natural hunger. Practicing mindfulness while eating, chewing food properly, and eating in a peaceful environment will also help.

It’s best to consult a yoga or meditation coach to get a personalized routine based on your body type. A guided approach will help you heal naturally and safely.
