Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 dear friends the over enthusiasm shown by few members in criticising astrology as a failure to predict one individual's death is unwarranted and is like earning bad karma in criticising a holy divine subject. the sages and saints were oft referred as 'trikaala jnanis' meaning they are aware of the past, present and future not through astrology alone but through their divya drishti or clairvoyance which they developed through japam and tapam. in many instances, a sage just closes the eyes and finds out why the native has approached him or what is the suffering of the native and also the reason as well as remedy. there is a code of conduct taught by the gurus in the old gurukul system that AN ASTROLOGER SHALL PREDICT A CHART ONLY IF THE NATIVE APPROACHES AND ASK THE ASTROLOGER. astrology is never used to predict any tom, dick and harry' chart unsolicited and then claim "i said so". if an astrologer is more interested in showing his prowess of predictions, chances are that he may get a big hand for 99 accurate predictions and if one prediction goes wrong, the entire world ignores all these 99 accurate predictions and brand him as a failure. the holy noble astrologer is always respected as "vidya vinaya sampann" where emphasis may be laid on "vinay". my experience taught me that if a person pursues astrology as a divine holy subject with respect and reverence, he would be blessed to learn it more and can make accurate predictions. but if the same divine subject is treated as a pre-programmed vending machine type scientific tool and everything is splashed at the click of the mouse, then it is as good as the stock market analysts(astrologers) who give two support levels and two resistance levels for each scrip unable to predict even the direction of the scrip as positive or negative. hence i humbly request the fraternity not to criticise the divine subject astrology in general and those astrologers who predicted rosy picture for pramod mahajan in particular. with best wishes and regards pandit arjun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2006 Report Share Posted May 3, 2006 ||Jai Ramakrishna|| Dear pandit arjuna, I completely agree with you wut u have said...for some predictions made by eminent astrologers(or by infamous astrologers), the Future of this Divine subject is questioned quite often & this hurts me..specially when I find people who come in the TV & give predictions without having a proper knowledge of this Holy Subject... Take for an example...Mr.Bejan Daruwala said that India will in certian cricket tournament, but just the opposite happened, India was unable to make her to way to the finals...& these cases often turns believers to be atheist....which really hurts me.. Its true that i not 100% or 80% of my predictions click....I need to learn more n more & evrybody come up with new charts, which tend me learn more n more. In one of the classics I find the characteristics of an Astrologer, it says:- Horasastro-samudra-paargamane nuunam samartho mahaan| paataakhye ganite cha vijaganite yo darbhagarbhaagradhiH|| siddhaanta-sfutavaasanaa prakathane bhedairanekaiyute| gole syat kushalaH sa eva ganako yogyah falaadeshakaH|| meaning--He is the real Astrologer,who has crossed the "ocean of Astrology",through timing of good & bad events are done,who has studied tri-skandha jyotish,who has sharp knowledge of Arithmetic & Algebra,who is expert to calculate sfutas or various longitudes for predictions,who is an expert in geography, & who is expert in predicting events & results beforehand. Our sages were "trikala jnanis" & they had "divya drishti" thru which they were able to see what is going to happen.I believe that as the sages have passed on their knowledge through various treatises & much of them have lost (might due to plunder or invasions from time 2 time) & we need to regain those through our on merit....praying to "Trikala Jnani" ShivaShambhu can help in achieving this.... Wish you all success, With Humbleness, . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
