D-Charts

[Guest guest]

Hare Rama Krishna

 

Dear Sarajit, Namaskar

 

This question about use of 'bhavas' in the vargas (varga chakras -

some do not seem to agree with the use of chakra) keeps coming.

 

To be more precise, can we analyse a chart like dasamsa (D-10) in the

same way we analyse Rasi (D-1) ? Does it have Parasara's sanction?

 

People seriously interested in knowing the truth, raised this issue

on this list even before.

 

What i like to know from you is the following:

 

In the chapter on Karakamsha (in BPHS), after defining karakamsha,

Parasara gives the effects of planets in the karakamsha, 2nd from the

karakamsha, 3rd, 4th,5th etc.,from the karakamsha.

 

Can we take this as a conclusive proof that the use of houses in the

divisionals has the sanction of Parasara (spelled out in so many

words)?

 

i ask this because clarification on this can comfort many beginners

that they are travelling on the highway.

 

Thanks & regards

its drekkana. This means that if a planet is there in the 2nd

drekkana of Aries, then it would be placed in a sign which is 5th

from Aries, i.e., Leo. Similarly you can find that all the planets in

different drekkana can be similarly mapped to different drekkana

signs. What is the trouble if they are shown in the form of a chart.

Moreover, what can you find about siblings, if not consider drekkana

as a chart. Take the drekkana of the 3rd lord? Then what? What

strength would you find… it is known that the trines from a sign

are always friendly, means that the 3rd lord is always well placed in

the drekkana and everyone’s siblings should be strong and well to

do? Please think if this cannot be used as a full chart, how else it

can be used for finding more details about the siblings!

divisions to be used as charts, that’s why he has given the rules

of bhavas etc after describing the divisions; you can know almost

everything about the siblings from the Drekkana.

Jaya JagannathaDear VijaydasHow are you? Can't scholars have differences? Should

they fall at the feet of each other and have to forcibly accept everything the

other says else the other is a fool? Alas, when will Jyotish come to the

respectable level of other subjects when scholars can debate on an issue and

still differ.There are so many who say varga charts are bogus, there are others

who say that Jyotish itself is bogus. How long are we to continue to debate on

these topics and for how many lives?Usage of Vargas...you really think that

this can be learnt over a few e-mails or a crash course in jyotish. Don't you

think that any crash course is only going to make us crash! Then how can this

happen? One way is to go to someone who is also knowledgable based on your

understanding and learn what he has to teach, and in the words of Kalyanaverma,

imbibe what is necessary and leave the rest. Then go to another till you have

exhausted all channels...as we do this our own knowledge grows. There is no

sudden enlightenment - knowledge only grows with time and patient learning.You

take the name of Siva, the Guru of the gurus, my most beloved Lord, my Gurudeva

Sri Kashinatha in body -

then you should know the meaning of this:

` nmae devdevez praTpr jgTgué,sdaizv mhadev guédI]a àdeihme.

You have asked so many *very very valid* questions. I ask one - why should I

answer? You are not my student, nor have you approached me with the object of a

sincere query for the subject. I have so many other things to do, and there are

so many in this list with questions for help - Kiran's brother and so many

others. Should I use my knowledge to help them or to answer you? And if you

think that there is no answer to this, then you are very wrong. Time to say

namah shivaaya.

Dear list, and friends ,

It was H.R.Seshadri Iyer who authored " New Techniques of predictions"

Second edition appeared in 1970 the year i started learning Jyotish.

In ch III of second part he translated varga as Division charts and equated it to

Phala Kundali. He was first to discuss theory of Division charts .Basic

Principles , to frame division charts were given by him.Although

literature was full of methods describing how to erect divisional charts.

He not only coined notations D-1 to D- 60 but also categorized into five groups

And stated "IN framing all these charts please note that all the parts of a

division must be equitably and wholly and symmetrically or consecutively

distributed among 12 signs of Zodiac. This must be satisfied in all charts."

 

Some may claim in parmpara D charts were used since long but as far as my

memory goes no one used or publicly wrote about use of divisional charts

except its use in determination of vargottama,or subh asubh vrgas occupation

..imparting beneficence etc to a planet.

Remember by then except Dr B.V.Raman Younger experts were not writing in journals.

much about divisional charts except few elders who serialized particularly Navamsa

delineations.

 

Honestly it was Great Iyer only who demonstrated how to use divisional charts

and gave rules ' How to judge the effects from Division charts"

HE gave 37 Rules and 31 examples.

Recently on one of the list perhaps Sh. Vinay has given much of his writing in short form.

Please try the method surely one can read kundali like a book with sincere efforts.

with Vimshoattri dasa itself upto two levels .Only requirement is correct lagan longitude.

 

A special issue of ASTROLOGICAL MAGAZINE on Vargas was issued in SEPT 81.

Dr BV Raman in his editorial wrote" the purpose --------- is to give some basic

instruction on the importance of Divisional charts so that astrological students

and savants can make their own observations and experiments and try the missing

gaps in predictive astrology."

 

The articles of contributor like great Sh H.R.Shanker And Sh P. S Shastri still did not

give much insight in real use of divisional charts. The teachings of Sh. IYER were yet

not well tried.

 

I salute Sh H.R seshadri Iyer who taught astrological students how to use

divisional charts with classical dasa bhukti for particular sectors of life. His

contribution is immortal.Hope some forgotten facts are remembered.

RCS

------------------------------

 

Second part please see main discussion thread below.

 

Here again some are skeptic of Ayanamsa and charkarka scheme.

 

No need to worry at all.

For every native their must be a Astrological Birthtime irrespective to known Birth time.

If astrology has a hypothesis or paradigm , life pattern are bound to follow the hypothesis

and phenomenon should be linked to planetary positions.

Technically it is called rectification.No astrologer takes for granted Birth time quoted

to be correct unless by his insight it synchronizes events in life of that native.

I hope it is easy to see therefore ayanamsa can be at little variance as well as known birth time.

THE ASTROLOGICAL BIRTH TIME It is a unit made of two component. Ayanamsa and

ghati pal or time.

Fundamental is lagan degree and longitudes.IT decides every thing including

varga etc.In fact

Nadi is limit of accuracy .This is too well known.

Can one imagine How old veterans and Risis of past could go to deepest level of vargas....

inpite of crude methods of time measure.surely Maharsi Parashar had no watch

and ephemeris like us .

The other day I was wondering a discussion about how planetary position was

calculated by ancients

when length of Dasa in a year itself is disputed. Talk of sayan zodiac was

afloat, similar theories floated

around 1970 when calculation of lagan was theorizes.

controversies will never end . Shastras are full of varied interpretations.Interpolations and

drop out are always possible .since We do not follow infallible method of Veda in

transmission.of astrological scripture.

Astrogy has survived .IN past also different interpretations existed.In some old shahtras

celebrated authors have often quoted opinion of others .

lastly "What is your opinion about K.N.Raojis chara karaka schemes"

As a student let me paraphrase What is your opinion about chara karaka schemes.

Taste of pudding is in eating? Study both and adopt what works for you.

Just an example I use RAO method when I use Chara dasa but use Rath method when

I use other rasi dasa. I do not find favour of calculation of UL as Pdt Rath is teaching.

To me method taught by Dr S.S.Chatterji is appealing me .In light of more experience

one can change stand . All depend upon getting correct prediction.Mental exercise has

limlted practical utilities.

Please permit me to sum up .

ASTROLOGY is about understanding MYSTERY of COSMOS.No one is right nothing is wrong.

Own discrimination and experience is guiding factor. Chanyaka has said

Yasya nasti swaiya pragyna shastram tasya karoti kim I

Lochanabhayam vihinaysa darpanam kim kariyasyati II

hope my submission is non offensive and in context.

"Also one will not have fear when one has only intentions to read future

correctly of a native

Then in front of Lord Shiva one can swear his intentions,one need not fear."

GOD forgive me if I am wrong .

Hari om tatsat.

 

"vijayadas_pradeep" <vijayadas_pradeep >Re: D-ChartsDear

Shri Himanshu Mohan If Shri K.N.Raoji and Dr.B.V.Raman can be quoted for

supporting usageof vargas as charts,why do we not quote them for ayanamshas

andcharakaraka schemes.Why you were not posting such quotations all thesesix

years?Do you think Dr.Ramans ayanamsha is wrong and his usage of vargachakras

are right as it suits our purpose.What is your opinion about K.N.Raojis chara

karaka schemes.Also why doyou think shri K.N.Raoji transfers karakamsha over to

Rashi.Also astrologers extensively use vargas during prashna and it is notthat

it is difficult to calculate and hence they are not using them.Only regarding

their usage as chakras and application one has doubts.Also one will have fear

only when one has dual intentions.When infront of Lord Shiva one can swear his

intentions,one need not fear.ThanksPradeep "vijayadas_pradeep"

<vijayadas_pradeep >Re: D-ChartsDear Shri Sanjay Rath

jiThanks a lot for taking time in explaining.I have seen Dr.Raman using

navamsha as a full chart as i have thebooks which you have mentioned.Also i

know that shri K.N.Rao ji toouses Divisionals as charts.I have also expressed

my opinion and Shri Raoji has read them too.Ialso have your Crux of Vedic

Astrology.Giving due respect to all learned astrologers i beleive a student

canstill express his concerns and doubts on a particular aspect.This doesnot

mean the student is above them in understanding.It is just aparticular

aspect.For me it is difficult to consider them as charts,unless you are

kindenough to explain how it is possible when classics refer them as amshas or

divisions of houses and notcharts.Also the local texts translated by scholars

of yesteryearsnever consider them as charts.They consider them as vargas of

Lagna and Planets.Could you kindly explain if it was because of Dr.Ramans and

ShriRaojis usage that you decided to consider them as Charts or based onsome

classical reference.Divisionals are important and hence can differentiate

strength,even ifwe do not use them as charts.Also lagna in navamsha ,drekkana

etc - Do they represent self orspouse,siblings etc.This is another doubt.These

are not any attempts to criticize just for the sake ofcriticizing.It is a

sincere pursuit.Also i have full respect for your contributions and the

knowledge ihave gained through your works.But that does not prevent me from

asking doubts unless i get asatisfactory answer.ThanksPradeep--- In

Dear Jyotisa who criticise the word 'D-Charts' or Divisional charts.

Well I know at least two other astrologers other than myself who use the

divisional charts in deciding the results for the various people of a family or

other events.

1. Dr B V Raman has used the navämsa extensively as the räsi chartalthough

Sages never seem to have mentioned it as per your understanding of the

slokas.In 'How to Judge a Horoscope' (a strongly recommended book byme), he

has given some really fine examples and has shown how to read the'houses from

the navämsa chart' 2. K.N.Rao has gone even a step further in showing the use

of DCharts for timing the death of family members (excellent example of the

Nehrufamily) and children using the Saptamsa and Dwadasamsa charts. Have you

read his books? He seems to use D charts all the time. 3. I have gone a step

further in giving all the D Charts and theirusage in Crux of Vedic astrology

and my other books like Varga Chakra. In all the cases of the three astrologers

(including myself) havingample exposure to the classical Pundits and various

sources, we havelearnt to use the D Charts as was originally envisaged (and

hope that the larningfrom our elders was not diluted or lost in time) and have

shown how to do sobased on our interpretation and understanding. I cannot

reproduce the entire

COVA here but if you want I can request that a copy be sent to you as there

are some very kind hearted people in this list. If after reading all that you

still fell that Dr Raman, KNR and I are wrong in using D charts or feel that

there is a different way to use them other than the ways shown in the books,

please be so kind as to share thatwith us. Without the D Charts you have no

hope in making even one prediction in Jyotish. For your kind benefit, I am

giving two charts of two womenborn a minute apart. Would you like t handle

this 'twin chart' and showwhich one has got married? I have many charts of

twin births. Most interestingcases really and very challenging. Finally, do

you Jyotiña draw a navamsa at all or are you trying totell the list that

Navamsa chart should not be drawn!!! TO ALL LIST MEMBERS Plese note that the

word 'Divisional chart' and D-Chart' were coined by K.N.Rao and this has been

accepted as standard nomenclature by all astrolgoers of SJC. K.N.Rao has done

some great service to the world of astrology by this standardisation and

drawing of Divisional charts.So if anyone tells you that K N Rao does not use

D-Charts then it is saying te most absurd things about KNR. In case you have

any doubts aboutthis, please write to Sri K.N.Rao yourself and get an answer

from him.I can saythat we may not see eye to eye in the way we use the

D-Charts but to say that D-Charts should not be drawn at all is blasphemy! Dr

Raman did not use the

words D-Charts initially but later he as the editor of the Astrological Magazine

has encouraged its use and this was accepted by the entire world of Jyotish.

So if a few are now saying that D-Chats don't exist and that Navamsa cannot

be drawn, please do not take this as the last word as they are no authority at

all. May I request someone to forward this to K.N.Rao and get his opinion. >
