Chaff and grain (Bush Inauguration Chart Article)

[Guest guest]

Dear Narasimha,

Yes, probably one can misinterprrete my meaning. The grain and chaff

analogy was used to indicate the ability of not taking into account

irrelevant data for a specific horoscope. Incidentally, I had not seen

your predictions based on SAV, with any regularity.

Regards,

Chandrashekhar.

Namaste,

I very clearly said at the onset itself that your analogy can

be misinterpreted and that I was clearifying for others. I

did not accuse you of anything. Moreover, you too replied

saying that you realized that your analogy can be

misinterpreted. Thus, the discussion between you and me was

over. I thought we were on the same page.

 

The rest of the discussion was with Arun and was not targeted

at interpreting or misinterpreting you. You are being upset

unnecessarily.

 

Some errors may have crept into BPHS here and there, but it

was preserved very well thru generations in various

paramparas. Some variations may be there in a small number

of places, but the text is mostly well-accepted. It is full

of meanings, special meanings and hidden meanings and not

much repitition/redundancy/unnecessary detail there.

 

I thought we were both in agreement and was not arguing with

you at all. Even Arun clarified later and we are all mostly

in agreement.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
