Guest guest Posted July 7, 2001 Report Share Posted July 7, 2001 Namaste, Thank you for the correction. I took the data I found in some book and rectified it based on lagna and GL in D-10. If the birthplace is slightly different, then the birthtime will have to change accordingly to fit my rectification window.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2001 Report Share Posted July 9, 2001 Dear members, Often, we are facing questions on how can astrology work sort of questions. While this is excellent for increasing our understanding, we must realise a few things. If two persons have exactly same horoscopes (in all devisions, and all special lagnas etc.), then how come astrology is useful. This is the question coming. In our daily life we have weighing machines. Observe your wight on it some 10 times. Do we observe the same reading all 10 times? Perhaps not. That is why, we are advised to take multiple measurements and average them to get a more reliable measure. Now, does this make weighing machines useless?? NO. When we are reading a chart, there are 3 things that are actually effecting the readings: 1. The charts (horoscope) 2. The time and place of reading 3. Who is reading (Here Jagannaath plays a role of giving spurana to the astrologer). If you go through Brihat Samhita (or Prasna Marga or any other book perhaps), you will see the needed qualities for an astrologer. He/she should be of good behaviour, god fearing etc. Why is all this, if astrology is a set of conditions and rules. It is not completely like any other science. HIS (Gods) WILL will guide the astrologer to see the points HE want him to see. Let us dis-agree from HIS WILL point for the time being:- May be 7000 people are having same chart and astrologers across globegive SAME reading to all those 7000. But what is the global population? Say 7000 000. (70 lack people). So, we have 7000000/7000 groups. i.e. 1000 groups. So, an astrologer distinguishes 7000 000 people into 1000 groups. Consider a non astrologer. Can he do a better job? If not, astrology with all its limitations is still useful. But, if astrologer could distinguish all 7000 000 people into 7000 000 individuals it would have been even better. Now, just one more point. Out of 7000 people, when they approach an astrologer, they would have some events elapsed in thier life already. Does not this give a better idea to astrologer? While, I am not intending any ill to Mahalinga prabhu, and I myself keep asking me about the same questions, I intend to alert all not to ASSUME (till we have a better answere and proof ) THAT AN ASTROLOGER CAN TELL ANY THING AND EVERY THING AFTER LOOKING AT A CHART WITH OUT FAIL (here, I am not talking about individual faults). Best regards, Vijay. mahalinga_iyer wrote: Namaste Narasimha, Thank you for the reply - especially since you appear to be pressed for time. > You ask good questions, but you are becoming repititive.

I realised I was probably becoming repetitive after I sent this post... I don't regret it, though - your point about a special D-1 and D-60 being possibly unique, while a 'common' D-1 and D-60 being shared among several people is an excellent one. So is the one about Dasa pravesh charts. I have other explanations for this, but I need to compose them before presenting them to the group. Asking questions is rather easier My belief is that ANYTHING that can stand critical scrutiny comes out stronger. If it does not survive, even then the critical scrutiny played it's role, in eliminating that which did not deserve belief in the first place. To my mind, critical scrutiny is only reinforcing the necessity of being *thorough* in understanding Jyotish. To that extent, I am happy with the questions I am asking. I hope I have smoothed a few ruffled feathers by explaining myself thus. I remain, Mahalinga Iyer || Om Tat Sat || Sarvam Sri Krishnaarpanamastu || Terms of Service.
