Fwd: Pluto

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

I have seen on other web-sites that it is written the Ancients of India did

INDEED know of Uranus / Neptune / Pluto's existence - however, they also

state that the Rishis did not use them NOT because they were Evil, but their

effects were too slow moving for the average Human Life Span - I have also

seen it stated that they are "Octaves" (which I guess means "equivalents")

of Venus / Mercury / Mars (can't remember which Outer was said to be similar

in Nature to which "Vedic" Planet, though.

 

It is possible that in the Transitional Period of thousands of Years from

when Parasara first wrote down the BPHS, Pages have been "lost" or not noted

down in subsequent "re-prints" of his original work - who knew as much as

they do about Ancient Egypt, until someone stumbled on certain aspects of

it? I agree that some things are revealed to us "by accident" when the Gods

feel the time is right. There is no proof that certain elements of the

"original" BPHS weren't deleted mistakenly or deliberately.

 

Just speculation, I know - but maybe if there do indeed exist these "missing

Pages", we will find evidence that Parashara was the Creator of Varshaphal,

too!

 

Very best regards - Sateesh.
