Guest guest Posted September 17, 2002 Report Share Posted September 17, 2002 Dear Muruli, My comments in RED below: Dear Mr. Jay Weiss Let me try to answer with my little knowledge. Atma / soul is nothing to do with the number of organs one has. If a person does not have a hand, eye etc., it does not mean that his/her soul is not complete. ***** When I wrote ORGANS I meant those I mentioned i.e. those you can not live without. You can not live without a heart or brain - that is beyond any discussion which in turn means that Atma/soul HAS something to do with those "parts". So here I disagree with you. Secondly and more important point is that it is not a twin birth. It is still an individual with physical deformity. We can analyse the horoscope keeping this in mind. NOT AS A TWIN BIRTH. ***** This is exactly what I was asking: what is it than ? - it will be very difficult (if not imposible) to find an acceptable explanation. Not only astrological but also medical. Kind regards Jay Weiss Regards Muruli Jay Weiss [jayhw (AT) telia (DOT) com]Tuesday, September 17, 2002 11:50 AMvedic astrologySubject: [vedic astrology] Re:] An amazing challange to Astrology - for Sanjay Dear Sanjay, With all respect, what is it than ? It is beyond a shadow of a doubt that they are two different personalities with two different heads, brains and hearts, simply physically bound to each other. As each one of them is able to take the others medicine, I assume that one can say that they support each other medically and made it so far up to their 11th birthday. A single chart will not reflect the mental disposition (as they are different) nor will it reflect all medical issues that have to do with their separated internal organs. As an interesting point one may elevate the fact that they have only one lever. I may also refer to some beliefs that the souls place is the heart. A dead-end in my opinion. I may be wrong here but I have a feeling that such cases are beyond anything astrology, or anyone else can explain. One of Gods and natures mysteries which is beyond us. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Normally the longevity will not be good.

We have discussed twins before - many times over - BUT NEVER SOMETHING LIKE THAT ONE. For saving space here, I suggest that you take a look at this site that has the entire story with some photos: http://members.tripod.com/~midnightwill/twins.html and try to come up with an explanation on how this (and similar) case can be tackled astrologically and karmically. Abigail and Brittany Hensel are conjoined twin - products of a single egg that for some unknown reason failed to divide fully into identical twins. ... They have one body conjoined in the lower spinal cord, which contains two individual heads, two harts, two lungs BUT only one urinary system, one pair of hands and one pair of legs, which seem to function in full cooperation and harmony (also during sport games). The are grown up young girls and no doubt there are two souls here. They are born in a cesarean (one body) - which means EXACTLY AT THE SAME TIME - SAME PLACE!

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Hare Rama Krsna! Dear Jay, >A single chart will not reflect the mental disposition (as they are >different) nor will it reflect all medical issues that have to do with >their separated internal organs. As an interesting point one may elevate >the fact that they have only one lever. I may also refer to some beliefs >that the souls place is the heart. A dead-end in my opinion. That's right, the souls place is in the heart, thus we definitely have 2 individuals here. Let's also consider the birth of Duryodhana and Jarasandha from the Mahabharata story. Duryodhana and his 99 brothers were all born from a lump of flesh which emanated from Gandhari's womb. Then it was divided into 100 parts by mystic process and the individuals grew in a pot of ghee until they reached the status of a full-grown baby. Now when do we take the birthtime in this case? When the lump of flesh was born from the womb? Certainly not, because that would mean they would all have exactly the same chart. No, it is the time they had their first breath after evolving in the pot of ghee. Thus here there was no question of cutting umbilical cord etc, yet to say that such a case falls outside of the reach of casting a chart for them is wrong, since no individual will escape from the laws of karma, thus how can we say there cannot be any chart made for them? Otherwise, how Duryodhana was considered to be the oldest and the others his younger brothers. Same case for Jarasandha, who was born into 2 parts, which were thrown in the forest by his father, but later joined together by the witch Jara and so he came to life. What will have been his birthtime? Needless to say that it will have been the time the two parts of his body were joined together and he came to life... Of course, these are extreme examples and beyond the reach of modern medical science, but still to say that no chart can be made for this kind of twin births is wrong in my humble opinion. It definitely will be two individuals with physical deformity. What to say if medical science would indeed be able to separate the two from each other and give the second one the bodily parts which he is missing from another source. Quite advanced, but this kind of medical science was indeed practiced in the time of the great Mahabharata war.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Dear ALL, In reality conjoined twins are really twins. It depends on when the zygote splits after fertilization that determines whether the twins are going to merely share the same sac or in extreme cases share organs. They may be joined anywhere. If at hips or back without sharing any major organs, they can be separated. There are instances of these twins growing up and living a miserable life, trying to come to term with each others personalities...as they really stuck to each other.. There are couple of amazing movies about this subject.. Even if they are born by cesarean section, I would imagine, because of their nature they would pose difficulty in extraction and they could be separated by time (seconds?)..!! One wonders then is time of birth the perfect tool..or time of conception /(which cannot be found out anyway) the perfect tool. Is life inside the uterus considered "Life" in astrological terms? A fetus does not have legal rights, but does it have astro rights? interesting questions... astromedico vedic astrology, "Dhira Krsna BCS" <Dhira.Krsna.BCS@p...> wrote: > Hare Rama Krsna! > > Dear Jay, > > >A single chart will not reflect the mental disposition (as they are > >different) nor will it reflect all medical issues that have to do with > >their separated internal organs.
