Guest guest Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 || Om Gurave Namah || Dear Vipin, I am not sure you understood Ayanamsa, Since you compare NASA figures and Lahiri/Raman. > Wanna see yourself:-download Starry Night Basic or Starry night Backyard or any other software which shows the picture of sky from anywhere in the world on any day/time. > > But the real question is, Who Is right?????????? NASA data gives the position on sky as observed. It's astronomical data. This data gives information for sky watchers to point their instruments/eyes for observation. This value is called Sayana. Sa+ayana = with+movement The observed sky keeps changing since the time of creation. It's only thru mathematics of Jyotish an attempt is made to go back to creation. Jyotish applies a correction to this changing sky to get the actual true position with respect to Narayana Nara+Ayana -> Narayana Nri -> Nara(Human/Mankind) Nri also means the point in sun dial indicating the Sun as the Narayana. The quantity of movement is called ayam. Henc, Ayanamasa is correction applied in Jyotish. Ayam + Amsa -> Ayanamsa This actual Ayanamsa value is a big secret to crack. Both Lahiri Committee value and Dr Raman's are very learned opinion. If Dr. Raman felt the Lahiri value is not accurate there could have been some reason. There may some text which he refered or some traditional words. Latter on, I think he settled for Lahiri value indicating that possibly he felt Lahiri value is more accurate. But maybe some change is still needed. This is my opinion. Use Lahiri value for now. Warm Regards Sanjay P Om Tat Sat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
