Guest guest Posted August 25, 2002 Report Share Posted August 25, 2002 First of all, a bandle of thanks for the Visti Larsen and others, who replyed me positively, and removed afew doubts I had. There is a suggesstion if 'we all' pay little attention on it, then the SJVC's Vedic Astrology Group can become more useful and comprehensive. Our groups which was initially started in 17 September 1997, by some preechers of vedic wisdom, now is a big public archive, an 'online academy' connecting amatures and experts. Lot of valuable work and research has come into light due to this web-group including lectures, comments, tutorial, softwares, and celebrity's birth data, beside a daily discussion and Q/A. But unfortunately these discussion could not compiled yet topic-wise(though one can access every mail but in chronicle order), but when a new comer asks 'what is a nav'amsha or arudh lagna' then it is not possible at least for the "Gurus and Expert" to rewite it in detailed due busy engagements. This often lead at the embarasement for the amature and repeatation of topis for seniors. Thus there is a need to compile these valuable discussion and comments topic-wise(this can be done in the shape of work-sheet or a macro which can sort and make possible to access the nearly 16300 e-mails according to need of users) so that many of the new comers can find there quaries in an easy manner instead of waiting. For example if a person wants to know about (say) importance of SuDasa, meanings of Nadi amsa, Nakhshatra Gochara etc. then 'programme' can referred goto message no. ######. Similarly other options can also included. Even a comprehensive and ordered discussion book(or e-book) can also be compiled if someone is well-versed and interested in it, then it'll definetely present a new light on the Jyotish, and helpful to remove the doubts arises in applied Jyotish.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2002 Report Share Posted August 27, 2002 Hello, greetings to all: It is a good idea, but the problem is it needs time, effort. There are also a few problems with respect to the messages that they do not always address a single issue, so a post may in fact be relevant in a lot of other topics and individual preferences may differ on which post to place under which topic. I have been following a slightly different and laborious method. The webpage of messages by itself allows automation at a very minute level, I search the archive for a particular keyword in all the messages say "D-3" or "drekkana" in the archive and the brwoser displays search results for about 700 messages search results in a page in a tabular format, then copy the search results to a text file and save the results page by page (this could run into thousands of message listing) save these listings and go through the messages at your lesiure and see if the discussun there was relevant for your topic of interest. The results are in the following format The word drekkana occured in following messages Message no TOPIC Day/date of message 16207 Re: More on Istadevata Dean Valentic Darpaha Dasa Mon 7/29/2002 16170 Re: Jyotishi for birth time rectification-Karen, monappen Sat 7/27/2002 16135 Re: Jyotishi for birth time rectification-Karen, Karen/Ron Skoler Fri 7/26/2002 16077 Re: Jyotishi for birth time rectification-Karen, monappen Tue 7/23/2002 15996 Re: Jyotishi for birth time rectification-Karen, Sudharsan Srinivasan Wed 7/17/2002 Only problem is you need to have patience till the broswer displays the result and you copy and paste to some other file. I managed to generate only two indexes so far, this method needs a lot of time. Note that you may have to generate quite a few index files, but they help you in going directly to that message and browse at your lesiure. I would like to know if there is a better way to automate it and get the results faster. Sorry to dvelve on a "means" topic for a long time instead of the "ends". This group is meant for discussions on astrology "ends", but the basic information "means" seems to become an end in itself and the information available is getting huge.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 Salaam Walekum (Please correct me if I am wrong) Dear Muhammad Imran, Nice to know ur sentiments about your homeland. I regard those sentiments. Thats the first thing one should do. Janani Janmabhumischa swargadapi gariyasi. This means, Mother and the Motherland is more glorious than the heaven. For that matter We have also fled from Bangladesh :-). What I mean is that, its not bad to identify with one's own homeland, but the better thing would be to identify with the humanity i.e., Vasudaiva Kutumbakam... Which mean the whole world is our family. Don't be afraid of raising any critical or quarrelsome questions.. Because it doesn't matter much. The questions are themselves unbiased.. Biased are we, who make some subjects quarrelsome and some not...

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2002 Report Share Posted August 28, 2002 I have been using a simpler method by which one can search the subject line of all the messages and do indexing/ search based on it, or the key words. What one needs to do is copy the "Messages Index" and paste it in an offline Spreadsheet (Excel, etc.) or a Database file. One can paste 30 heading lines per page. But if one knows how to manipulate the Browser address line, one can copy upto 100 lines at a time. There are some problems with this method though, like if the subject line is not relevant, or as already pointed out, the message addresses more than one subject.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2002 Report Share Posted August 29, 2002 SRI RAMA RAMA RAMAETI ----------------------- Pranams to gurujis, Dear list, I am of the opinion that the task is no doubt tough. When it is beneficial to one and all for reference and knowledge, I feel indexing and codifying the topics/discussions under different heads viz. planets, d9,d20,placements of planets, marriage, matching, career, progeny,children,yogas, retrograde, debilitation,ul,ak etc would facilitate an easy reference manual. We can directly access the required subject and can eliminate repeat/not-so-required topics, also some times the thread is long enough that it eats much time to peer. For this task, I am prepared to undertake. I need acceptance from gurus. vasu -- Shailesh <shail_c wrote: > I have been using a simpler method by which one can > search the subject line of all the messages and do > indexing/ search based on it, or the key words. > > What one needs to do is copy the "Messages Index" > and paste it in an offline Spreadsheet (Excel, etc.) > or a Database file. > > One can paste 30 heading lines per page.
