Dear members,

 

Namaste.

 

As several of you enquired about the proceedings of the SJC Hyderabad

conference, I thought to share with you some impressions as one of the

participants.

 

The SJC Hyderabad conference was held in Hotel Raj Classic Inn in Hyderabad,

between 2nd and 10th of December, 2002. It was titled SRI VYANKATESHA SHARMA

VARGA WORKSHOP and the main topic of the conference was divisional charts and

their application in different branches of Jyotish. A book was published

simultaneously with the conference by Sagar Publications, titled Varga Cakra.

This book contains most of the papers presented on the conference with the

exclusion of a few talks, which were all recorded and I think will be available

soon in CD fromaf from SJC Hyderabad. For further information on the recordings

please contact Shailesh C. Chadha, president of SJC-East

(scchadha (AT) hotmail (DOT) com).

 

The speakers included first of all Sri Sanjay Rath, who gave very interesting

talks on Hora, Dasamsa, Navamsa, Shastyamsa, chart rectification and chart

analysis at a glance. Then we had Andrew Foss, who was speaking about Dreskana

and Siddhamsa. Ohter speakers included Shiv Pujan, G.K. Goel, Phyllis Chubb,

Sat Shiri Khalsa, Visti Larsen, Dr. Satya Prakash and myself. We had about 30

full time participants from abroad and local as well. We had three 2-hour

sessions daily, and talks or chart analysis continued in the afternoons,

sometimes till early morning. Every morning we had a meditation session with

Purushottamanji and myself. After the workshop was over, most of the

participants joined us in the pilgrimage to Tirumalla, to take Darshan of Sri

Vyenkateshwara Balaji on the Thursday morning of Mrigashira Maasa. We went

there by bus, visited first Sri Varaha-Nrisimha Swami, then Balaji, and on the

way back we took darshan of Sri Padmavati, Vyenkatehsvara's consort. Most

participants had their hair shaved, in this way praying to the Lord to free

them from the influence of Rahu.

 

The queue to stand is usually very long, but thanks to the arrangements made by

Mr and Mrs Lakshmi ramesh, who are regular visitors to the shrine, everything

went very smoothly and quickly. Although usually foreigners have to sign a

declaration that they accept the Hindu faith before they are allowed to enter

the temple, the foreign members of our party were accepted as authentic Hinduse

without having to make a declaration. As you may know no foreigners are allowed

to enter the Jagannatha temple at Puri, but Sanjayji said that he was working

on changing this rule. We hope for the best. We have also decided that next

year's conference would be held in Puri in mid January 2004, although the topic

is not yet finalised. In m name and in the name of my shishya Swee Chan, who was

also very happy to tkae part in this conference I would loke to thank once more

very much to Sanjayji, the other speakers and the organizers for their efforts

and contribution and we are looking forward to be able to tkae part in more

such conferences in the future, where the exchange of knowledge becomes a very

enlivening experience. I hope to see all of you again on the next year's

conference, and perhaps see all those as well who were unable to participate.

 

As for my self, I have presented two papers. One was on Suryamsa (D-12) and the

other one on the Deities or amsa lords of the D-charts. The second paper comes

to about 50 pages, and the material is not finalised yet. Despite this, I am

willing to send these papers to anyone interested as email attachments just

please lte me know. I would also like to have your feedback on the Varga

Deities material as there is much more matter to research and experimet with.

Eventually it may grow into a book analysing these finer aspects of

construction and analysis of D-charts.

 

I hope other participants of the conference would also share their ideas. Me and

Swee are prepairing notes that we made on the conference in electronic form, so

once ready this will also be available from our website and maybe in the list's

library as well.

 

Yours,
