Chaff and grain (Bush Inauguration Chart Article)

[Guest guest]

Pranaams Chandrashekhar ji,

 

Thank you.

 

I do use ashtakavarga frequently.

 

Some readers may misunderstand your "chaff and grain" analogy. Just

for their sake, I will re-iterate an important point.

 

There is no "chaff" in the teachings of Parasara and Jaimini. They

are full of grains and only grains, no chaff whatsoever.

 

Hence the challenge is not separating chaff from grain, but

separating one grain from another and knowing which grain is needed

for making which food. If you are, for example, making bread or

poori, you need wheat. If you are making Boondi laddu, you need

channa dal (chick peas). If you are making Pongal, you need moong

dal and rice. If you are maing Idlis, you need urad dal and rice.

Similarly, each food needs a different grain.

 

So the challenge is to know how to separate one grain from another

and to know which grain is used how.

 

The same holds in JyotisSaastra or Jyotisha. Knowing the difference

between various parameters taught by maharshis and knowing which

is used how is the challenge.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
