Dear Sanjay Rath,

 

Hare Rama Krsna!

 

Jaya Jagannath!

 

>So, even in charts which have "RECORDED" birth times, do the necessary

>retification of Kunda and Pranapada, at least the latter is a must.

 

Though you have been stating the time of cutting the umbilical cord is the

right time of birth, I had some doubt about this. Can we understand it

like this that when child starts 'breathing' on his own, that means, his

prana or life air becomes seperate from the mother's, that this is the

correct time of birth? That would be why we rectify with pranapada.

 

Can you explain a little more on kunda rectification? I understand it

should be that kunda must be in trines to Moon or Nama nakshatra. Is there

maybe more to this rectification? E.g. in my chart it doesn't seem to work

out.

 

Your sishya,

Dhira Krsna dasa

Hare Rama Krishna

Dear Dhira,

Prana has nothing todo with breathing itself, it represents the lifeforce that

is present in the individual. When one inhales the lifeforce of the individual

gets rejuvenated, but the breathing itself isn't the cause of this. Actually

the lifeforce is allready in the individual before they are born.

 

Now which being has been born is our question? And this will help us discern the

lifeforce present. For humans the pranapada should be in trines or 7th from

Moon. For Dogs or horses, this would be Mercury instead.

 

This is the correct understanding of Prana.

 

How to rectify using Kunda, craves understanding of Tattwa and the union between

Shiva and Parvati. I have written an article on Kunda rectification in the

coming issue of the Jyotish Digest.

Om Gurave Namah

Dear Dhira Krsna,

Add Lagna to that option of Nama & Chandra. This is something I have learnt

very recently. Also, we need to get a beter grasp of the tatva and vi-tatva.

Harihara (Prasna Marga) has just given an excellent method of the Kunda

correction. Since it relates to the predominant tatwa of the chart at the

moment of birth, this has to be more sensitive than the gross method

outlined therein. Perhaps there is more to this than what catches the eye.

At the feet of Guru Pandita Kasinatha,

I remain,

Sanjay Rath

Dear Arthur,

Some texts say that the time of cutting of umbilical cord is to be taken as time

of birth. I differ. The reason is that when elective ceasarian section is

possible, time of cutting of umbilical cord can also be selected(I have seen

parents asking astrologers what would be the time that would give best possible

Horoscope for a child to be so delivered so that they can fix time of operation

acordingly). Now if we accept that umbilical cord separation is to be treated

as time of birth and that the position of planets then is going to determine

the fate of the child, I think we are missing something here. However a child

will cry for first time only at a moment of its own choosing and no artificial

election of time of birth could be applied to that event.

The second logic is that since estoppage of breath is time of death, by

corrolary drawing of the first birth( which is what the child does when he cies

for first time) has to be the time of birth.

This is my logic(Viveka which astrologers are enjoined to use, when applying

principles of astrology, by the sages) in saying that time of birth is to be

taken when a baby cries out for the first time. There are other reasons too

related to the time the shashtra was evolved but let us not delve into it as it

would then constitute a thesis, beyond the scope of the question.

Other learned members might have different views and logic.

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

The logic of using first cry as time of birth doesn't work, some babies don't

cry.. maybe you could apply this to first breathe, but then some don't breathe

and are born dead as soon as the navel-cord is cut, are we then to say that

they haven't been born? No.

 

The umbilical cord is not cut at just anytime, the doctor waits until the flow

of fluids between the mother and child has stopped, and then the umbilical cord

crystalizes and is cut. Otherwise it is not cut. Hence the idea of planned

cesarian births doesn't work.. just ask some on this list who have attempted

the same.

Dear Visti,

When babies never cry and never breath they are called still born babies. This

yoga is seen in the parent's horoscope to my understanding.

I think your info about flow of blood stopping in umbilical cord and the

umbilical cord crystallizing is not accurate.

I have been a breeder of dogs and also a dairyman( the puzzle that was not

solved) and have delivered umpteen numbers of babies albeit not of the human

variety. I have never seen umbilical cord crystallizing and have not found any

reference to this being the condition for cutting the umbilical cord in any

Gynic or Obstretics reference Books that I possess. To my mind if somebody

really allows it to crystalize this ould be necrosis and the mother would then

surely suffer pyometra at the minimum. I doubt if any medical practitioner

would allow this to happen.

However, me not being a Licenced medical practitioner of the Human species,

perhaps Doctors on the list would like to state the factual position.

I will give other reasons that I belive what I belive after this issue is

clarified by some medical practitioner one of whom is bound to be on this list.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Visti,

In continuation to when umbilical cord is cut, I am giving you a Link to

information on umbilical cord , time of its cutting and various practives. The

link is of chapter of a recommended set of practices so from there you can go

forward and backwards and find out whether electional cutting of cord is

possible or not. Whether cord crystalizes or not would also be abudantly clear

there.

http://www.who.int/reproductive-health/publications/MSM_98_4/MSM_98_4_chapter2.en.html

Being a world health organisation link , I hope none questions its authenticity.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Om Namo Gurubrihaspathaye,

Dear Visti and Chandrasekhar,

 

Food or Ahara is for keep this body alive. We takes food in many different forms

such as through blood before cut the code, form of liquid after take the birth,

and form of bread later. When we all tired, the glass of juice add some energy

to the body as soon as it goes in to the stomach, need not to wait hours to burn

it.

Fact is every breath create many million particles or cells in this body as soon

as you breath in. So our breathing too is ahara (food) to this body and only

difference is the food comes after taking the form of air.

 

First breath is nothing but taking food. But it is not the start of consuming

food. So breathing or crying cannot be the actual birth.

 

Hope this help you.

Karu

Jaya JagannathDear Karu,

 

Can you explain more, what you are willing to say. However, I second Visti and

you that crying cannot be the basis for birth on one more basis. What makes the

baby to have an independent existence and not as an organ of the mother? It is

the severence of the connection of umbilical cord to the mother's body.

 

Best Wishes

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Om Namo Gurubrihaspathaye,

Dear Visti and Chandrasekhar,

 

Food or Ahara is for keep this body alive. We takes food in many different forms

such as through blood before cut the code, form of liquid after take the birth,

and form of bread later. When we all tired, the glass of juice add some energy

to the body as soon as it goes in to the stomach, need not to wait hours to burn

it.

Fact is every breath create many million particles or cells in this body as soon

as you breath in. So our breathing too is ahara (food) to this body and only

difference is the food comes after taking the form of air.

 

First breath is nothing but taking food. But it is not the start of consuming

food. So breathing or crying cannot be the actual birth.

 

Hope this help you.

Karu

Dear Chandrashekhar,

The logic of using first cry as time of birth doesn't work, some babies don't

cry.. maybe you could apply this to first breathe, but then some don't breathe

and are born dead as soon as the navel-cord is cut, are we then to say that

they haven't been born? No.

 

The umbilical cord is not cut at just anytime, the doctor waits until the flow

of fluids between the mother and child has stopped, and then the umbilical cord

crystalizes and is cut. Otherwise it is not cut. Hence the idea of planned

cesarian births doesn't work.. just ask some on this list who have attempted

the same.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Dear Arthur,

Some texts say that the time of cutting of umbilical cord is to be taken as time

of birth. I differ. The reason is that when elective ceasarian section is

possible, time of cutting of umbilical cord can also be selected(I have seen

parents asking astrologers what would be the time that would give best possible

Horoscope for a child to be so delivered so that they can fix time of operation

acordingly). Now if we accept that umbilical cord separation is to be treated

as time of birth and that the position of planets then is going to determine

the fate of the child, I think we are missing something here. However a child

will cry for first time only at a moment of its own choosing and no artificial

election of time of birth could be applied to that event.

The second logic is that since estoppage of breath is time of death, by

corrolary drawing of the first birth( which is what the child does when he cies

for first time) has to be the time of birth.

This is my logic(Viveka which astrologers are enjoined to use, when applying

principles of astrology, by the sages) in saying that time of birth is to be

taken when a baby cries out for the first time. There are other reasons too

related to the time the shashtra was evolved but let us not delve into it as it

would then constitute a thesis, beyond the scope of the question.

Other learned members might have different views and logic.

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

Our Sanjay Rath of this list is said to not cry when he was born. He's still

alive and kicking as far as i can tell.

The umbilical cord starts by stopping the flow of fluids between mother and

baby. When this stops, the outer layers begin to crystalize, and the cord is

cut. The whole umbilical cord cannot crystalize at once, but due to the

exposure of air and lack of liquid surrounding it starts to dry up. The doctor

waits for the the pulsing to stop and then cuts.

 

This discussion has been held several times on this list, in which Sanjay Rath

has also given his view. I would recommend that you search for his view in the

archives, he has written a detailed assesment. If not then please acquire the

workshop cd's from Hyderabad, where this discussion was also held.

I think your info about flow of blood stopping in umbilical cord and the

umbilical cord crystallizing is not accurate.

I have been a breeder of dogs and also a dairyman( the puzzle that was not

solved) and have delivered umpteen numbers of babies albeit not of the human

variety. I have never seen umbilical cord crystallizing and have not found any

reference to this being the condition for cutting the umbilical cord in any

Gynic or Obstretics reference Books that I possess. To my mind if somebody

really allows it to crystalize this ould be necrosis and the mother would then

surely suffer pyometra at the minimum. I doubt if any medical practitioner

would allow this to happen.

However, me not being a Licenced medical practitioner of the Human species,

perhaps Doctors on the list would like to state the factual position.

I will give other reasons that I belive what I belive after this issue is

clarified by some medical practitioner one of whom is bound to be on this list.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Sarajit,

If I may put in my two cents worth. You will find that should umbilical cord be

not cut then the placenta can come out and the baby looses contact with mother,

as you call it. In some natural birth practices this is done. You may like to

access WHO site on reprodictive technique and find out the veracity of my

statement. I have sent a link in Visti's mail and you may explore it to find

out what is the reality.

Again if a child's loosing contact with mother's body is to be taken as the time

of birth, then it would have to be when placenta detaches from the uterus, which

happens much before the baby's egress. There is no method by which this could be

ascertained. At the most you can have an approximation by the time a lady breaks

first water.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Visti,

If you have read my initial mail., I have mentioned that this is my opinion and

others may have different opinions. You will also observe that I am not

questioning why some hold cutting of umbilical cord to be the time of birth. I

am aware that one of the texts (Phaladeepika if I am not wrong) does mention

cutting of umbilical cord to be taken as time of birth. In response to your

mail, I was just pointing out the physiological phenomenon as it happens. I

have also sent link to WHO site so that you can verify yourself.

You will also observe that Shri Sanjayji has not yet intervened and is probably

observing the arguments unfolding.This is a sign of a great mind which, while

not tolerating wrong theories being advanced; continues its search for the

truth. To continue to do so after having aquired great knowledge oneself shows

that besides reading the scriptures it has understood its meaning. I am certain

sanjayji is also well versed in Raja Bhartrihari's Neetishataka.

If my putting up my views is causing any hurt to you, I am certain you will

pardon an ignorant person.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

I have been a breeder of dogs and also a dairyman( the puzzle that was not

solved) and have delivered umpteen numbers of babies albeit not of the human

variety. I have never seen umbilical cord crystallizing and have not found any

reference to this being the condition for cutting the umbilical cord in any

Gynic or Obstretics reference Books that I possess. To my mind if somebody

really allows it to crystalize this ould be necrosis and the mother would then

surely suffer pyometra at the minimum. I doubt if any medical practitioner

would allow this to happen.

However, me not being a Licenced medical practitioner of the Human species,

perhaps Doctors on the list would like to state the factual position.

I will give other reasons that I belive what I belive after this issue is

clarified by some medical practitioner one of whom is bound to be on this list.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

The logic of using first cry as time of birth doesn't work, some babies don't

cry.. maybe you could apply this to first breathe, but then some don't breathe

and are born dead as soon as the navel-cord is cut, are we then to say that

they haven't been born? No.

 

The umbilical cord is not cut at just anytime, the doctor waits until the flow

of fluids between the mother and child has stopped, and then the umbilical cord

crystalizes and is cut. Otherwise it is not cut. Hence the idea of planned

cesarian births doesn't work.. just ask some on this list who have attempted

the same.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Dear Arthur,

Some texts say that the time of cutting of umbilical cord is to be taken as time

of birth. I differ. The reason is that when elective ceasarian section is

possible, time of cutting of umbilical cord can also be selected(I have seen

parents asking astrologers what would be the time that would give best possible

Horoscope for a child to be so delivered so that they can fix time of operation

acordingly). Now if we accept that umbilical cord separation is to be treated

as time of birth and that the position of planets then is going to determine

the fate of the child, I think we are missing something here. However a child

will cry for first time only at a moment of its own choosing and no artificial

election of time of birth could be applied to that event.

The second logic is that since estoppage of breath is time of death, by

corrolary drawing of the first birth( which is what the child does when he cies

for first time) has to be the time of birth.

This is my logic(Viveka which astrologers are enjoined to use, when applying

principles of astrology, by the sages) in saying that time of birth is to be

taken when a baby cries out for the first time. There are other reasons too

related to the time the shashtra was evolved but let us not delve into it as it

would then constitute a thesis, beyond the scope of the question.

Other learned members might have different views and logic.

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

No emotions involved so far. If you feel attacked personally, then i'm sorry.

All i'm doing is putting your oppinions under scrutiny.

Maybe Sanjay is observing how his students deal with the subject before he

intervenes. At some his students are going to be teaching others without his

scrutiny, so for now he maybe reaping the results of his teachings.

Dear Visti,

If you have read my initial mail., I have mentioned that this is my opinion and

others may have different opinions. You will also observe that I am not

questioning why some hold cutting of umbilical cord to be the time of birth. I

am aware that one of the texts (Phaladeepika if I am not wrong) does mention

cutting of umbilical cord to be taken as time of birth. In response to your

mail, I was just pointing out the physiological phenomenon as it happens. I

have also sent link to WHO site so that you can verify yourself.

You will also observe that Shri Sanjayji has not yet intervened and is probably

observing the arguments unfolding.This is a sign of a great mind which, while

not tolerating wrong theories being advanced; continues its search for the

truth. To continue to do so after having aquired great knowledge oneself shows

that besides reading the scriptures it has understood its meaning. I am certain

sanjayji is also well versed in Raja Bhartrihari's Neetishataka.

If my putting up my views is causing any hurt to you, I am certain you will

pardon an ignorant person.

|Hare Rama Krishna|

Dear Chandrashekhar,

Our Sanjay Rath of this list is said to not cry when he was born. He's still

alive and kicking as far as i can tell.

The umbilical cord starts by stopping the flow of fluids between mother and

baby. When this stops, the outer layers begin to crystalize, and the cord is

cut. The whole umbilical cord cannot crystalize at once, but due to the

exposure of air and lack of liquid surrounding it starts to dry up. The doctor

waits for the the pulsing to stop and then cuts.

 

This discussion has been held several times on this list, in which Sanjay Rath

has also given his view. I would recommend that you search for his view in the

archives, he has written a detailed assesment. If not then please acquire the

workshop cd's from Hyderabad, where this discussion was also held.

Dear Chandrashekhar, Visti and Sarajit,

 

Despite battling with thoughts like a blue baby and all that, I confess to

holding this view deep down for very long that the cutting of the cord should

constitute the moment of birth. I don't quite think so now.

 

Most scriptures refer to the child "being born", not about about its first

breath or whatever else. Period. So why not just keep it simple and not bother

about anything else? Let me give a preposterous analogy to substantiate what

I'm trying to say. When I buy a car, it's actually mine when it rolls out of

the showroom. That's the moment, isn't it? Too bad if the thing doesn't come to

life when I crank up the key the first time around. Blame the mechanic who did

the pre-delivery inspection or anyone else for its stuttering first steps, but

the car is mine already. Why don't we deem birth similarly? The baby is born

when physical separation between it and mom occurs. If it doesn't / can't cry,

too bad but it has already been born. I'm not a gynec but I think the placenta

gets disconnected from the mom's uterus along with the birth, while its

physical expulsion occurs a wee later on, so even though the cord is attached

to the placenta, the latter is in itself free.

 

One last frivolous attempt to prove my point -- point your browsers to

http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=birth, kill the pop-up and read on...

the first definition says that birth is, "The emergence and separation of

offspring from the body of the mother". That's all. I don't see no mention of

inhalations, bawls or frolic.

 

Is that QED or... :o)

Jaya JagannathDear Rama,

 

The logic is brilliant, but not of much utility for Jyotish sake. The definition

you gave is again is given not taking Jyotish in mind... Isn't it... Definitions

are something which we define, based on whatever it should be; its not the

definition which define what it should be. Yup for a common man your definition

of birth would suffice. However, what I might say here is that, Cars don't have

placenta otherwise if it has any, then obviously you couldn't have driven it to

your home, as long as the car was connected to the delivery showroom with it.

Dear Sarajit,

 

My accent was intended to keep the whole concept simple; it perhaps became too

simple, as you say :)

 

Let me try another. Say a lady delivers a baby which is dead on arrival. Would

or wouldn't you consider it born? I think I'd look obtuse if on the grounds of

it not having shrieked I argued that it wasn't born at all. It was born but was

born a lemon; too bad. And when was it born? When it physically separated from

the inside of its mom. That was my point, notwithstanding it was poorly made

;)

 

Warm regards,

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Jaya JagannathDear Rama,

 

The logic is brilliant, but not of much utility for Jyotish sake. The definition

you gave is again is given not taking Jyotish in mind... Isn't it... Definitions

are something which we define, based on whatever it should be; its not the

definition which define what it should be. Yup for a common man your definition

of birth would suffice. However, what I might say here is that, Cars don't have

placenta otherwise if it has any, then obviously you couldn't have driven it to

your home, as long as the car was connected to the delivery showroom with it.

 

Best Wishes

Sarajit

Dear Jyotisha,

Pranams to my Guru Visti Ji and all the SJC Gurus for all the

wonderful instruction. I must confess my knowledge of Jyotish is

very small. However, I am professionally familiar with the birthing

process.

1)Physicians clamp the umbilical cord once the baby is clear of the

mother and then cut it.

 

2)In modern practice they do not wait for the blood in the umbilical

cord to crystallize/coagulate/clot. However, in principle they could

wait as must be the case in farm animals and wild animals.

 

3)After the umbilical cord is cut hormonal changes in the mother

cause the blood supply feeding the placenta to close down and the

placenta can safely fall off the womb/uterus.

 

4)The placenta can not separate from the womb/uterus after the "water

breaks" since it can take many hours between the time the water

breaks and the baby is actually born and breathing on its own.

Without oxygen from the mothers blood supply in the womb/uterus

thebaby will die.

 

5)Essentially, the baby is an extension of the mother until the

umbilical cord is cut becase he is dependent on her breath for life.

 

Respectfully,

Miguel

Otherwise it is not cut. Hence the idea of planned cesarian births

doesn't work.. just ask some on this list who have attempted the same.

Namaste Sarajitji and Ramapriyaji,

 

In continuation with this discussion I have a question

for you.

What if a baby is born, do not cry, is blue, is

separated from the mothers body, the umblical cord is

cut and since found not breathing, that means dead,

set aside as dead, and later after 15 minutes or so.

resumes the color of living, starts moving and crying.

 

 

What is the actual time of this baby's starting of

life...the emerging from the mothers body, cutting of

the umblical cord or first breath(cry)?

The baby in question is/was me.

 

Thanks, Rema

Dear Chandramukhadas,

I would add here that even in domestic animals procedure of cutting of umbilical

cord is electional. In wild it is broken by mother if carnivore and when the

herbivore stand then the pressure of the baby detaches it. If some one has bred

dogs (I think Laxmi does) he/she will confirm that sometimes placenta does come

out with the pup. Even in cases where for some reason harmones are used to

induce pains this can happen even in humans. I have not said that ababy should

be allowed to dangle by placenta till expelled naturally nor did I say this is

the general practice. I was commenting on baby's loosing contact from physical

body of the mother. You might like to visit WHO reprodictive practices web page

and find out what happens in child birth.

Reagards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Rema,

At the cost of being called obstinate, I would say when you first cried out

would be the right time. Your horoscope, if the ascendant is on border so that

difference of 5 minutes could make a change of ascendant would be a fit case to

test the theory of what should be the time of birth. Of course for this both the

time of cutting of umbilical cord and that of your first cry should be

available.

Chandrashekhar.

Dr. Dilip Banerjee,

Would you please coment whether what I have said about cutting of umbilical cord

and detachment of placenta is correct or wrong. This would enable this

discussion to go on right track again.

Regards,

[vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Dear Visti,

When babies never cry and never breath they are called still born babies. This

yoga is seen in the parent's horoscope to my understanding.

I think your info about flow of blood stopping in umbilical cord and the

umbilical cord crystallizing is not accurate.

I have been a breeder of dogs and also a dairyman( the puzzle that was not

solved) and have delivered umpteen numbers of babies albeit not of the human

variety. I have never seen umbilical cord crystallizing and have not found any

reference to this being the condition for cutting the umbilical cord in any

Gynic or Obstretics reference Books that I possess. To my mind if somebody

really allows it to crystalize this ould be necrosis and the mother would then

surely suffer pyometra at the minimum. I doubt if any medical practitioner

would allow this to happen.

However, me not being a Licenced medical practitioner of the Human species,

perhaps Doctors on the list would like to state the factual position.

I will give other reasons that I belive what I belive after this issue is

clarified by some medical practitioner one of whom is bound to be on this list.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

The logic of using first cry as time of birth doesn't work, some babies don't

cry.. maybe you could apply this to first breathe, but then some don't breathe

and are born dead as soon as the navel-cord is cut, are we then to say that

they haven't been born? No.

 

The umbilical cord is not cut at just anytime, the doctor waits until the flow

of fluids between the mother and child has stopped, and then the umbilical cord

crystalizes and is cut. Otherwise it is not cut. Hence the idea of planned

cesarian births doesn't work.. just ask some on this list who have attempted

the same.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Dear Arthur,

Some texts say that the time of cutting of umbilical cord is to be taken as time

of birth. I differ. The reason is that when elective ceasarian section is

possible, time of cutting of umbilical cord can also be selected(I have seen

parents asking astrologers what would be the time that would give best possible

Horoscope for a child to be so delivered so that they can fix time of operation

acordingly). Now if we accept that umbilical cord separation is to be treated

as time of birth and that the position of planets then is going to determine

the fate of the child, I think we are missing something here. However a child

will cry for first time only at a moment of its own choosing and no artificial

election of time of birth could be applied to that event.

The second logic is that since estoppage of breath is time of death, by

corrolary drawing of the first birth( which is what the child does when he cies

for first time) has to be the time of birth.

This is my logic(Viveka which astrologers are enjoined to use, when applying

principles of astrology, by the sages) in saying that time of birth is to be

taken when a baby cries out for the first time. There are other reasons too

related to the time the shashtra was evolved but let us not delve into it as it

would then constitute a thesis, beyond the scope of the question.

Other learned members might have different views and logic.

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Visti,

I have not felt attacked personally at all. I thought you might feel so, as I

was explaining the process of cutting of umbilical cord. That is why I asked

your pardon , should feel that I am trying to hurt you.

I never take discussions personally if they have a base in logic (however

farfetched the logic might be). So feeling attacked, that too by a person of

your immense knowledge is absolutely out of question.

It is said by elders " Vade vade ni jaayate tatvabodhaH". By the way did you

access the link I had given with the mail?

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Dear Chandrashekhar,

No emotions involved so far. If you feel attacked personally, then i'm sorry.

All i'm doing is putting your oppinions under scrutiny.

Maybe Sanjay is observing how his students deal with the subject before he

intervenes. At some his students are going to be teaching others without his

scrutiny, so for now he maybe reaping the results of his teachings.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Dear Visti,

If you have read my initial mail., I have mentioned that this is my opinion and

others may have different opinions. You will also observe that I am not

questioning why some hold cutting of umbilical cord to be the time of birth. I

am aware that one of the texts (Phaladeepika if I am not wrong) does mention

cutting of umbilical cord to be taken as time of birth. In response to your

mail, I was just pointing out the physiological phenomenon as it happens. I

have also sent link to WHO site so that you can verify yourself.

You will also observe that Shri Sanjayji has not yet intervened and is probably

observing the arguments unfolding.This is a sign of a great mind which, while

not tolerating wrong theories being advanced; continues its search for the

truth. To continue to do so after having aquired great knowledge oneself shows

that besides reading the scriptures it has understood its meaning. I am certain

sanjayji is also well versed in Raja Bhartrihari's Neetishataka.

If my putting up my views is causing any hurt to you, I am certain you will

pardon an ignorant person.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

|Hare Rama Krishna|

Dear Chandrashekhar,

Our Sanjay Rath of this list is said to not cry when he was born. He's still

alive and kicking as far as i can tell.

The umbilical cord starts by stopping the flow of fluids between mother and

baby. When this stops, the outer layers begin to crystalize, and the cord is

cut. The whole umbilical cord cannot crystalize at once, but due to the

exposure of air and lack of liquid surrounding it starts to dry up. The doctor

waits for the the pulsing to stop and then cuts.

 

This discussion has been held several times on this list, in which Sanjay Rath

has also given his view. I would recommend that you search for his view in the

archives, he has written a detailed assesment. If not then please acquire the

workshop cd's from Hyderabad, where this discussion was also held.

Om Namo Gurubrihaspathaye,

Dear Sarajit,

 

Me to agree. Independent existing is actual physical separation from mother.

Arising (creation ?) and dissolution (Destruction?) of the body can be realized

with breathing practice. This is part of insight meditation (Vipassana).

Feeding this body start as soon as conception occurred and continue until death.

Foods are not only bread and rice, but water as well as Air we breath in. In the

womb, the body partake oxygen or food through mothers blood and after come out

start to partake oxygen it self. So start breathing is changing the way of

partaking oxygen, but not start to partake oxygen. Body is a separate

department which growing up separately, I like or not it keep breath in and

out, and continue to exist. There is no choice up to certain level.

 

The actual birth occur, after physical separation, from mother's body. This is

only my understanding and what I believe.

How ever, if you understand the rising and dissolution part related to breath in

and out easier to understand my argument.

 

Hope this help. Perhaps more details can be send to your mail.

 

Thanks

Karu

Jaya JagannathDear Karu,

 

Can you explain more, what you are willing to say. However, I second Visti and

you that crying cannot be the basis for birth on one more basis. What makes the

baby to have an independent existence and not as an organ of the mother? It is

the severence of the connection of umbilical cord to the mother's body.

Re: [vedic astrology] Birth Time & cutting a nevel

Om Namo Gurubrihaspathaye,

Dear Visti and Chandrasekhar,

 

Food or Ahara is for keep this body alive. We takes food in many different forms

such as through blood before cut the code, form of liquid after take the birth,

and form of bread later. When we all tired, the glass of juice add some energy

to the body as soon as it goes in to the stomach, need not to wait hours to burn

it.

Fact is every breath create many million particles or cells in this body as soon

as you breath in. So our breathing too is ahara (food) to this body and only

difference is the food comes after taking the form of air.

 

First breath is nothing but taking food. But it is not the start of consuming

food. So breathing or crying cannot be the actual birth.

 

Hope this help you.

Karu
