A controversial article on vedic astrology...4 cents 8/7

[Guest guest]

Dear Sari.

u have done the best reply to the debate, i tried to add some support to vedic astrology with some concrete evidence, but for Prafulla no one else even said a word, rather went in tangents. Though we are whistling against the wind and sure KK i snot going to read or respond, but we must not allow self doubt in our system to catch up.

I am sure readers like prafulla, Gaurav gosh are already confused, and hope not seriously.r

THE BASIC FAT THAT IS ESCAPING EVERYONE IS why will Parashara or anyone talk of Ayanamsa? it is part of their system we are taught astrology through ephemeris and GMT as s basis so we have got used to first doing a Sayana chart and then using whatever ayanamsa we need.

there is even scientific evidence for the correction of 55 secs odd every yr and the zodiac is moving backwards which is what ayanamsa says

there was a debate when the 13th planet was discovered in a talk show in BBC by astronomers they did say that people who thing who are born is Leo [lions will find it shocking to find they are Crabs [born in cancer] so this is what ayanamsa is doing the correction backwards. y few sec every yr.

and to doubt parashara is too much we have not read the works in original script from a guru ,reading printed versions will give us the same depth as K K kaul has, we get to feel the body the soul is not there. this must come from a Guru.

Gaurav's comment on epics is strange

the past Yuga's lives were longer inkali Yuga it is 120 yrs who is living 120no one in earlier Yugas see Brihat Parashara Hora shastra it is thousands of years and K kauls ridicule of Rama may be still living if we accept he ruled for 11,000 yrs and dasaratha was childless for 60,000 years etc, they lived longer.

if we accept MOSES Lived SOME 666 yrs why cant we accept the earlier Yugas.

and Vedya Vyas is the one who wrote Mahabharatha and Srimad Bhagavatham is the one there r other vyasas too, vyasa measn to compile veda vyasa is the one who compiled Vedas and toehr scriptures, they lvied in Yugas of long live, did pranayama and had a dharmic life lived longer than people of their times, we can't judge from our life, in todays world, moral stabdards

simple to quote Einstien on Mahatma Gandhi's death

IN THE COMMIGN DECADES no one wll believe such an man existed and achieved [freedom without bloodshed and violence.] will you doubt this, no later centuries sure ur own grand children will disbelive it.

Dear Prafulla and other respected members,

 

I read the article too and I got the impression that the main reason for the

writer to consider tropical zodiac more accurate were the good results he

had got with Western secondary progressions. But one need not to change

zodiac to use secondary progressions, so I cannot understand why the

workability of that method should be the reason to evaluate the tropical

zodiac as more correct as a whole.

 

One can think about the fact that Western astrologers used to use planetary

rulerships in the past centuries, but they are not used extensively any

more. Most Western astrologers give the rulerships of Aquarius, Pisces and

Scorpio to outer planets Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. Wouldn't that be a major

change in techiques, unless the planetary rulerships as a whole would have

become only a curiosity because of precession?

 

There's a lot of strictly zodiac based techniques that Indian sidereal

astrologers use, but Western tropical astrologers use only little, or don't

use at all, for example the previously mentioned house rulerships, but also

divisional charts, whole sign houses and aspects (because whole sign houses

is the only house system that gives partly different results with different

zodiacs), dasha systems etc. The most used and workable techniques of

Western astrology (transits, progressions, outer planets etc.) are not

dependent on the zodiac.

 

What comes to transits and solar return charts, many Western astrologers use

precessed sidereal returns and then turn them tropical, because the

precession corrected ones have proved to be more accurate.

 

Best wishes, Sari
