Hi Chris

 

When i started to study vedic astrology, the Brihat Parasara Hora was not yet

translated. I had to rely on other astrologers like Raman and others to read

what Parasara said. Meanwhile, i learned a lot from them.

 

In the course of my studies i have read that some astrologers in South India

base their readings in only navamsa charts. They do not read anything else and

their predictions are accurate.

 

As long as the medicine cures you, who cares about what, how or why?

 

I have come across astrologers that do not consult ephemeris or charts to give

accurate predictions to one person. How do they do that?...It is their secret.

 

To give you an example, one day an astrologer was on the phone and said "I have

to go now cos someone with a very important message to you is going to ring

you". Well enough, one minute later, a person rings giving important news on

the tel.

 

In my own experience i have looked into many astrological tools but it is

impossible for me to learn all of them. By being practical, i follow what is

producing the best results by experience.

 

I have not used Lunar paralax and i think that it is not for me. But who

knows?, it may be good for you and in 20-30 years time parhaps that is the only

thing that you are going to use with correct predictions and help, or perhaps

you may find after 6 or 12 months that it does not work.

 

You are free to investigate and practice what you want. If you want to waste

your time, it is your own risk.

 

<<One interesting consequence of this debate and others like it, is that it is

nearly impossible to figure out which approach to a chart is the correct one if

the participants are using different parameters andinstruments. How can we tell

if the astrologer who uses parallax correctedMoon dashas is more accurate than

the one who does not? How can we tell ifKP practitioner is right in his

assertion that a native is Libra rising while the Parasharan astrologer insists

on Virgo? We can't because they are using different words, even different

languages to state their cases.>>In this case i will listen to the debate and

see how the point is given by taking into consideration the skills of the

presenter and look into the essence of things before drawing a conclusion.

 

For example, there are some astrologers that have a very good skill in writting

in English and presenting their case, so they can impress those that do not

know much about that matter, but under analisis, they have errors of

especulation.

 

As a native speaking Spanish, i have seen that many times. Some of my teachers

told me to learn the art of reading the intention of the individual.

 

In this materialistic society we are told how to learn to read the world of

appearances, the external world. That can be a good help but experience tell

us that frustration comes in many times when we use that tool.

 

When we learn to read the intentions, things may be hard to see in the beginning but more rewarding.

 

Intentions are connected to the 5th house and previous lifes. I have been told

of some great astrologers that walk around without any books or computers and

just by looking at a person, hearing the person or reading from the person,

they can see the past, present and future of that person. How do they do that?

They have Divine grace.

 

When the Pandavas came out of the court of the kurus some 5,000 years ago, they

heard that it was war. Bhima, the stronger of them came out of the court with

his fists closed, indicating that he was going to smash his enemies. Sahadeva,

one of the twin brothers among the Pandavas was the astrologer, he could see

everything. After that fatidic meeting with the Kurus, Sahadeva had not charts

or computers with him, he only closed his eyes. He did not want to see the

future of the Kurus.

 

And soon after we had the great battle of Kuruksetra and we know now that the

Pandavas won to the Kurus.

 

Remember, learn the truth from a bona fide teacher and with a humble attitude.

How do you want to learn with a bitter heart?

 

We all are on the same boat, learning, and everyone is receiving lessons

according to his/her capacity.

 

I hope this helps.
