Guest guest Posted September 14, 1999 Report Share Posted September 14, 1999 JAYA JAGANNATH Dear Narasimha, Nowhere is it written that planets cannot be retrograde in divisions and that is what I have said. I do not make statements outside the texts without the support of the scriptures. In any case the point is worth testing as then only can we say for sure that our belief is true or not. That is the scientific temper as this area is not explicitly stated in the texts. We have been using D-charts like normal charts on the basis of the statement of Parasara, and only experience has confirmed our beliefs regarding GL & HL in the divisions other than D-1, D-3 & D-9. This proves that other rules can also be extended to D-Charts, but carefully, and after proper testing. That is why although I have some knowledge about the various Hora Charts, I have always encouraged Richard and Purushottam in their experiments. If they are sincere, then sooner or later when Sri Jagannatha wills it, they will stumble on the truth. It is my sincerest wish that all Human beings strive for this truth and whenever I can, I shall always have an encouraging word for them. That is why Maharshi Vishwamitra advises us to follow Him in this most beautiful prayer in the Rig Veda: SUCHIR-MARKAIR-BRIHASPATIM-ADHVARESHU NAMASYATAH "[With His Divine Grace may] we approach Brihaspati with pure, untainted and clear thoughts which shall lead our good actions [in this Brahmanda] to definite Success." May the Divine Light of Brihaspati come to you.
