Post on Puzzles: a Request to everyone incl the List Admin

[Guest guest]

Dear Chandrashekharji,

I might not have understood ur reply properly but still i am attempting to

reply back.

 

1. One logic that I understand on the answers posting on the list is that it

increases healthy spirit, but when clues are given and no fixed time frame

is set in, there can be many variables. Maybe a date be given and everyone

shuold post it on that time, this can be a better alternative.

 

2. No doubt it takes courage to post on the list publicly but sometimes most

members do not have 1% of the knowledge (me included) in comparision of the

people who post answers. Some members might post just to prove their Jyotish

muscles , some for the fun of flexing their own Jyotish muscles - i feel

the later is much better.

 

Some members do not post on the list re such puzzles since they want to

remain humble and not allow right predictions to soar their egos. Some

people incidentally face an intense struggle with their own egos, trying to

control their egos.

 

3. I couldn't comprehend if u were asking me to post my analysis to the list

publicly, then I shall do so and I shall do so without knowing the answer, I

shall keep the answer seperate and also post the previous exchanges between

u and me re the chart on the list. I don't think so i would ever be able to

get the correct answer astrologically, its beyond my scope. For me astrology

is becoming very confusing, last night i read PVRs article in whcih he

correctly predicted from D10 TP, when 8th lord was in 1st house, his dasa

giving job, this to me is very high level stuff beyond my normal

understanding o f basic Jyotish Principles.

 

In the later part of the dream, there was intense argument between u and me

on Jyotish puzzle esp the stone in ur astrology college and hence I didn't

seek to post my analysis on the list fearing that the impending eclipse

could spoil my relationship with u and the dream was a forewarning.

 

I hope our friendship remains intact.

 

Thanks,

 

With Blessings of Divine Mother

Dear Sunil,

Your suggestions are no doubt good. But we have to allow a degree of

latitude for the answers to trickle in. The answers , I think should be

posted on the list only. This should not deviate any one in his

application of principles of Jyotish. It would , on the other hand, let

others know the diverse logic applied to arrive at a solution.

You see in so far as my puzzle is concerned, I had mentioned in my first

mail that the purpose was to show that one can commit mistakes in

assessments and that no one should deride others should the answers

fail. I thought the puzzle would make everyone realise how predictions

can fail sometimes. I also wanted to emphasise that one should admire

courage of those posting the answer, no matter if it is wrong. It takes

courage to post something publicly. The post also makes one approach a

subject in logical manner and also helps one in approaching a chart

without any prejudice.

trust you will agree with me.

Chandrashekhar.
