Namaste Energumen,

 

I remember reading this interview a month and half back. It was a very inspiring interview.

 

The man is a legend and made tremendous contribution to Jyotisha. To remain a

bachelor for the entire life and lead a simple and spiritual life without any

bad habits is not something everybody can do. I was touched when I read what he

wrote regarding his weakness for tea (I myself am trying to give up tea and have

not had it in a few months now).

 

One would have to be blessed to lead a simple, pious and spiritual life like him.

 

Of course, when it comes to technical matters, there are several issues where I

disagree with him. The Parasari vs Jaimini distinction you refer to below is

definitely one thing where I totally disagree with him.

 

However, despite disagreements, I must say that he is a blessed man and led an

exemplary life and there are MANY lessons to learn from him.

 

I hope his health is good. Based on annual TP chart, June and first half of July

seem bad. I hope he is doing ok. May he be blessed with good health and a long

life!

 

On a different note, I am thankful I read this interview because reading this

interview led to a chain of events - which I cannot explain here - which led to

my discovering that Drigdasa calculations I taught in my book and programmed in

JHora were wrong and Parasara's teachings had some differences from what Sanjay

ji taught me. Sanjay ji could reconcile with Parasara's teachings and he

actually made more sense of it than I could. He, as usual (to him), brilliantly

explained a couple of points that seemed odd to me (but unambiguously stated by

Parasara). It was this interview that set off a chain of events that resulted

in a more correct understanding of Drigdasa! Thanks to Sri KN Rao for

indirectly enabling a better understanding of Drigdasa..

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha

Namaskaar Anil

 

I do not know of a website wherein you can order Sri Rao's books. You

can order them from Book store, Bharateiya Vidya Bhavan, Kasturba

Gandhi Marg, New Delhi.

They have his entire collection. His books are also available at any

shop having a good collection of astrology books, The stores in Delhi

are mentioned:

Luxmi Book Store at Janpath

English Book Depot in CP

Picadally at Shankar Market

Couple of bookstore in Chandni Chowk

 

Maybe you can check BVB at Mumbai too.

 

I find his books revealing and interesting. They tend to scoff at what

he beliefs is a wrong idea of Astrology. There is stuff in his books

that isn't taught in many other books. I found his books are not for

the beginners though he has started writing lessons on his website for

the same.

 

I say one thing for sure. Anyone not reading his books are surely

missing on a wealth of knowledge.

 

Thanks and Regards

Bharat

Namaskaar Sri Narasimha and others

 

The reasons why he considers Jaimini and Parashara are totally

different are best known to him only. However, I know that many

scholars consider BPHS as a compilation of all thoughts into a

singular book by someone in Seventh century AD. They believe that the

original Parashara and Jaimini taught different methods that converged

and were complimentary to each other.

 

Sri Fin Wandahl suggests the same on his website http://www.wandahl.com

 

To me it does not matter whether or not they were different as long

both give accurate results and can be used effectively in analyzing a

horoscope.

 

Thanks and Regards

Bharat
