[vedic astrology] Can Language serve us better?

Hello everyone, In order for all of us to benefit from every post on this,

learning forum, it would be really very helpful if the Listers would try to

'translate' or explain Sanskrit or Hindu words. Understandably, use of

Sanskrit to a certain extent, is necessary. However, I've noticed that some

posvts are so overloaded /unnecessary, IMHO/ with Sanskrit-Hindu /not a

language expert here/, that one feels like mistakenly joining Sanskrit-

linguistic-forum List. Language shoould not be the focus, let alone barrier in

discussing jyotish, IMHO. If Indian born listers, as I've noticed, to a lesser

degree perhaps, have problem understanding posts, what westerners should say.

Besides, If it's not the problm for most of us to read- study from the books

written by jyotishi, that should be even less so on this List- meant to be

useful for majority of us. Just a bit of consideration would solve this

problem- and we all will benefit more. Thanks. Anna This happens occassionaly

on GJ List- I am sending this there, too.
