Guest guest Posted January 11, 2005 Report Share Posted January 11, 2005 Now that we as a group, thanks to Kali Awatar Internet, have undoubtedly reached and hopefully exceeded that critical mass that I had been anxiously waiting for like a Chaatak bird who keeps looking at the source of illumination and that has the solution to his misery, his thirst ... We are all beholden to jyotish and we fight vehemently for our beliefs in strong and weak ways, but always passionately and truly, and I have yet to find an astrologer/astrology student here who is not true to his/her belief in astrology, whatever other flavours and biases or leanings he or she might have had. Here is my dilemma -- there have been written umpteen million shlokas and their translations and their transcriptions and reiterations and so on on matters astrological and yet I have not found anyone who can answer the following call, with certainty and confident success: Can one tell the gender of a person just given the birthdata? Can one tell the race of a person just given the birthdata? can one tell the religion of a person (at birth and later) given the birthdata? And yet we hear that jyotish can tell one's name and where a mole is situated on the body! Please don't quote me slokas and combinations that fizzle out readily when put to test. And if your experience has been like mine, then why is this so (why can we not tell these obvious, unambiguous things and attributes) and what does that tell us about what the horoscope and astrology is supposed to tell us?

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Rohini ji, I think if you see today`s astrology i do doubt how many people will be really interested in knowing the answers to the questions that you have asked. The curiousity to know the future is more from the perspective of events and well being rather than knowing gender, race or religion. More importantly race and religion is something which has come into picture due to the geographic location(race) and practices which came into picture either preached by someone or found in texts(religion). A person could change his religion or preach more than one religion. There are few streams of astrology like nadi which can to a certain extent do that also. But it is more done by asking questions than by birthdata. For the gender part, nishek lagna could be helpful to some extent but again the birthdata should be accurate. For your part where you have mentioned that we hear that jyotish can tell one's name and where a mole is situated on the body, we can go by a simple principle(one advocated by you also) of testing out such methods. Hearing is not believing.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Dear All, As rightly noted, astro combinations or quotes would not help here. I would stress again on the moment which decides the TRIAD of astrologer-query-querist, since the degree of accuracy of answer to any of these questions depends directly on THAT particular moment. If the querist is 'eligible' to know the answer, if the astrologer is 'capable' enough to give the answer and if the QUERY is 'genuine' enough in its objective, no matter what the query is, the MOMENT SATISFIES THE TRIAD. With all said above, it is very difficult to judge/sense which is a 'good' moment; rather it is felt later after the answer is given by astrologer to the querist many a times! Whatever astro- knowledge one has, a BAD moment fails him to get accurate solution to a problem posed to him. So answer-rain to Chaataka Pakshis like us is available; not always, but in drops of time! ...Just my drop of water yours KAD , "Gaurav Sharma" <gauravkom> wrote: > > Rohini ji, > > I think if you see today`s astrology i do doubt how many people will > be really interested in knowing the answers to the questions that > you have asked.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Hello Members, >From Astrology point of view the following have definete answers provided there is definete belief in this approach. Let's be sure that such questions r not meant to test the knowledge of a simpleton who is ready to help a person and find the way to tide the good and bad times. Infact the questions below r not veru uncommon or for that matter difficult to deal in Astrology,the problem always lies in the data accuracy that is given to him to churn out the details.This makes Astrologers a very sensitive and questionable flock as a professional.Iam sure Rohini ji is able to appreciate the depth of the vedic approach through Astrology.What we r now interested was a most prevalent and reverred approach.To stand to times of modernisation and changing values(including freedom of religion) is a challenging issues before the time tested field of knowledge. "Can one tell the gender of a person just given the birthdata? > > Can one tell the race of a person just given the birthdata? > > can one tell the religion of a person (at birth and later) given > the > > birthdata?"
