Guest guest Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Dear Narasimha, Greetings, You got me wrong.I was not leveling any allegation against anyone.I was just echoing my own as well as the feelings of several astrologers and students of Jyotish.The man who foresaw defeat for Blair in EST wrote in STAR, latest issue, a relatively unknown magazine , that given the circumstances, Blair might win.Those who could read between the lines could clearly see the underlying idea.Had Blair failed, he would have cited his article in EST as a testimony of his predictive efficacy;now he could point out to the article in" Star' and claim infallibility.This he had been doing so since years.It doesn't matter, if someone wants to superimpose & claim superiority over other astrologers by saying "I have given thousands of successful prediction" ;but the point is , in the process, he never forgets to take a dig at the genuine astrologers, hushing up his own feeble mastery of the subject. It is not the intention of Kid to malign anyone.Kid is a chip of the old block, who believes, humility and intellectual honesty are pre-requisites for studying a complex and divine subject such as jyotish. If false claims, baseless allegations against other astrologers and ballooned ego are the virtues to be followed, Kid stands badly condemned. KID "Narasimha P.V.R.

When we ourselves have not overcome our ego, why should we find fault with others for being egoistic and hence dishonest? If you want to change this, why don't you set the correct precedent instead of complaining? Secondly, it is not yet clear what future holds for Blair. Some commentators think that he will leave before the end of this year. Though I personally feel that he will stay after overcoming the discontent, it is quite possible that the gentleman you are criticizing ends up being correct in the end!

Guest guest Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Dear Kid, > You got me wrong. You too got me wrong. My point was that people are the way they are and we can't change them.

I completely agree with you. Even if one gathers name, fame and following with a raajasik and taamasik approach, it cannot last long. Only sattwa can have a long-lasting triumph. Other gunas can only triumph in the short run. > If false claims, baseless allegations against other astrologers > and ballooned ego are the virtues to be followed, Kid stands > badly condemned. I agree. I did not comdemn you!
