Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi kurla- gunda and others ! This discussion is a blessing in disguise, one can masure himself whether he is a students of vedic tradition and prise worthy to say that 'he is an Vedic- Hindu' ? Please try the simple test proposed in the following URL.http://www.veda.harekrsna.cz/quiz/popquiz.htm and satisfy . SPECIFICALLY FOR KURLA-GUNDA: The sounds made by the 'frogs in the well' seem to get momentary success, which shell not pass before the knowledgeable " Sarabeswar " who create real tremors. ...... You are fixing targets for each of your centres to hijack few every year to market your " mumbo jumbo Garbage",but proclaim publicly as '' not pleading to any one to waste their times lolling'' ..... You taught Guru sishyas to say your their system could predict very accurately even for twin births,you asParamartha Guru say that vedic-Astrology is capable of predicting for 45 million types of horoscopes only,Where as the world population is more than 6 Billion. (U.S.Census Bureau declares the world population is around 6,475,226,804 ).Now you decide where you stand with your Bible BHPS. Let the Pundits talk ! tails look for "scavenging" . --- Naveen Kurlagunda <goldy_naveenwrote: People on the group, I think it is time we stop such rubbish as to there is nothing Vedic about vedic astrology. Our very learned friend(s) has\have inadvertently not heard of a SUKTA called Navagraha sukta which exists as an undercurrent in most of the VEDIC CHANTS. It clearly specifies the quality, look and adhidevata of each of the navagrahas, (for example Yama for sani, Vishnu for budha and so on).It starts like (Aasatyena Rajasa ...). The great grand sire of the Mahabharata, Reverend Bhishma pitamaha had the boon of a wishful death and he chose not to die until UTTARAYANA arrived. There is also clearly the mention of various kinds of eclipses, ekadashi tithis and various kinds of time calculations pertaining to various Yugas. It is a well known fact in astrology that the transit of Sanideva through Rohini nakshatra always yields bad results. There is a side story in the Ramayana of as to how Dasartha went up the heavens to sani to first plead with him to bypass his transit through Rohini and if Sani did not relent was also willing to fight him. Even to this day there are thousands of people who still chant the Sani stotram written by DASARATHA to pacify Sani. Our writer also seems to get carried away so much in his thoughts that he has cleverly forgotten that the Vedas were infact an import brought in by the marauding ARYANS who either brought them here or developed them after settling in the great INDIAN plains. History is witness to this fact the ARYANS were not the basic settlers of our great land and its heritage! But do we still not feel proud of our culture and the Vedas? History also agrees that the ancestors of the Greek and roman and our Vedic civilization must at some point have had led a mingled life before splitting off into various directions. Hence there is bound to be some usage of words which may be Greek. But there is no doubt about the point that the Vedas were infact completely "developed" only on this soil as other (Greek and roman)civilizations have not shown as much as 25% similarities to put us in the same boat as themselves. SO based on this fact our very knowledgeable writer may also say in the future that basic words like Matr,Pitr,Bhratr and so on are very similar to English and German words like mother, Matron , Father, Patron and so on and hence try to prove that English came before Sanskrit and that we should be indebted to them. The study of every aspect of life has been so cleverly delineated and complete in our branch of astrology (Vedic) that astrologers all over the world are shifting towards and here we are trying to bicker over such a foolish thing instead of trying to master it. As to various ayanamshas in use it depends on the calculation of taking Chitra, Jyestha or Aswini as the fixed point in the heavens. Not all of us (at least not me) are expert, complete astrologers and prediction is not always accurate as we are not the Vidhaata.(Only Brahma can correctly say what will happen and we as humans can only indicate it based on our incomplete knowledge and experience.) Maharshi Parashara was a bachelor. Then how on earth did he beget a son (Veda Vyasa) that too from a fisherwoman class.Maharshi Parashara had full knowledge of the navagrahas and their effects on anyone and everyone as he performed a serious penance and received boons from them. Not wanting to be selfish he very magnanimously put down his knowledge in writing for the future' benefit. One day when he was walking to the Ganga to have a bath to perform his evening ablutions he happened to glance at the evening sky and foresaw a dazzling array and formation of planets in the sky. A child impregnated at that moment would be of a very high stature and intelligence, one who would be of immense use to human society. Not wanting to cause a serious loss to humanity he impregnated the nearest woman available who was the one who happened to be rowing the boat and also a fisherwoman. He also blessed her to have a good body odour and that her son would help her in any need. I don't think I need to reiterate what Vyasa gave us (18 puranas, 4 Vedas and its Vedangas, Mahabharata, Upanishads, Bhagavatham, and the Gita which is part of the Mahabharata).Forgive me if I have left out others. As a parting shot I want to remind everyone about the most famous NAVAGRAHA stotram (Japa Kusuma sankaasam...).It has a phalashruti which states that "Iti VYASA Mukhodgitam Yah Patheth Su samahitaah, Divava yadiva Rattrau Vighna shantih bhavishyati, Nara naari Nripaanamcha Bhave Duhswapna Naasanam, Aiswarya matulaam tesam arogyam pusthi vardhanam, Graha nakshtrajaah pidaah staskaraagni samudhbhavah, Taah sarvaah prashaman VYASOH bruutena samshayah. Hereby written by Vyasa, persons who chant the navagraha stotram shall be freed from all ill effects of not only planets but also other celestial bodies (stars) and also freed from bad dreams. There is no doubt about it as promised by Vyasa himself. I am sure there will still exist people like our enlightened writer\s who may find fault with everything as they deem themselves akin to frogs in a well. We must somehow put them to the side and leave them to their fate, until they realize their stand. Also no one is exactly pleading with anyone to completely waste their times lolling away in thoughts.It must be used as a tool to identify difficulties and overcome them.If good is indicated, we must not be slthy but must work towards acheiving the results.
