24. Astrology & Spiritual Disclaimer

All astrological consultations, remedies, religious courses, and spiritual products offered via this website are strictly spiritual tools for introspection and guidance. They are not substitutes for licensed medical, legal, psychological, or financial advice.

Results are inherently dependent on an individual’s karmic patterns, sincerity, and astrological timeline. Therefore, no fixed outcome, miracle, or guarantee is ever promised or implied.

If you believe that receiving our consultation or purchasing any product from our Divine Shop will instantly bring magical or overnight positive changes in your life, then this website, its services, and its associated organizations are not for you. We do not offer “quick-fix” solutions, supernatural interventions, or fantasy-based promises.

We categorically state that we do not possess Aladdin’s lamp. We are not miracle-makers. We only serve as spiritual guides, not as controllers or changers of fate.

Professor astrologer Avoy Amrito Das is a Vedic astrologer and spiritual counselor, not a fortune controller or fate-altering deity. Any exaggerated expectations, irrational dependency, or blind faith is discouraged and rejected outright.

25. Jurisdiction & Dispute Resolution

Any disputes arising from this policy shall be governed by the laws of Bangladesh and will be resolved in the Chattogram District Court or Cyber Tribunal.
