Guest guest Posted March 15, 1999 Report Share Posted March 15, 1999 Jaya Jagannath Mahaprabhu Dear Robert, Some questions on the KCD: 1. How do you calculate the balance of Dasa? Is it the balance of the first dasa or the balance of entire cycle? 2. Does the Jiva and Deha change if you go into another cycle of another pada?After all every pada has its own Deha and Jiva. If YES, then is this possible as the Deha (Physical Body) and the Jivatma of the person cannot change during one life-time?? If NO, then do we have the prescription of the texts to go into another pada which has already predefined Deha and Jiva? 3. Again, for example, if one is born in an Apasavya Pada, is it possible to go into another Pada which is savya or is there any other possible gati into another Apasavya Pada? 4. What is the sequence behind the KCD, if at all it is there? For I am inclined to believe that the Maharishi's had a divine Key for this and it cannot be haphazard. 5. Why have all the Cycles periods less than 100 years when the ParamAyus given by the Maharishi elsewhere is 120 Years? Does it mean that the effect of the dasa continues throughout 120 years by interpolation in some method or does it cease after the prescribed period of the Cycle as implying some sort of an AFTER EFFECT OF THE PAST BIRTH ON THIS BIRTH OF THE NATIVE? ......I have so many questions and hope that a logical discussion on this will ensue bringing out the truth about KCD. With Regards, Sanjay Rath ---------------- <bigger>Dear Raghu das and other list members, I wanted to mention with regard to Kalachakra dasa, which will be included in GJ 3: There are two ways in vogue for calculating the sequence of the dasas: one is the correct way, the other the wrong way. The correct way is to move to the next naksatra pada and thus cycle of dasas, following the set of dasas as per the naksatra pada occupied by the birth Moon. The wrong way, is to repeat the cycle of dasas from the birth naksatra pada over again, which gives incorrect "Gatis" or leaps between signs. Those who have not studied KCD will not know what I am talking about, but those who have, will understand easily. Note that most Jyotish scholars in India, and in the west, agree on the correct way (as above) to calculate the dasas. The late R. Santhanam, with due respect to him, did it the wrong way, and wrote it that way in his books. The method written by Sumeet Chugh, however, in his book "Yogini and Kalachakra Dasas", is the correct way, and further his book is easy to understand, and has many illustrations also. This is the book I recommend for those wanting to learn KCD, in addition to Parasara Hora, and Jataka Parijata.
