SAURAV GANGULI RETIRES

KN Rao

10 November 2008, 8:05 PM

At the end of 2005, there was a talk of the retirement of Saurav Ganguly, to

date the most successful cricket captain of India who will be remembered for

showing to Australians and to some extent cricketers like Flintoff of England

their places time and again.

It hurt the foreign players and provoked the foreign press, particularly the

Australian cricket journalists for whom a cricket match is a war and an

Australian defeat a national disaster. Australians can be excused for it because

Australia has all geography and no history except the cruel acts of wiping out

the native population when criminals of England were settled there. The emigrees

who settled later with more civilized background, I was told, brought doses of

some culture. Yet, to this great sports loving nation, getting eclipsed in

sports is a national disaster and you will rarely hear of Australian writers

writing in a balanced way and pointing out the faults of their own cricketers.

There have been episodes involving Australian umpires and famous Gavaskar

episode which the fast bowler Lilee refers now without any compunction. In the

last tour of Australia, India was umpired out of the Sydney Test and I was

reminded of what Keith Miller had written in 1960 when the West Indian team led

by the great Frank Worrel was umpired out of what would have been a great West

Indian triumph. It was a solitary case of a great Australian all rounder

denouncing his own country men, particularly the umpires. That streak of

aggression bordering on sadism and a sense of humiliation showing lack of

sporting spirit never vanishes from Australian life ever. It became more evident

in the Symmonds Harbhajan episode with Australians including Gilchrist with his

notorious autobiography never understanding that a particular abuse which

springs on the tongue of Punjabis can be misinterpreted as â€œmonkeyâ€.

AtmaKaraka Venus,Â AmatyaKaraka Sun,Â BhratriKaraka Saturn,Â MatriKaraka

Mercury,Â PutraKaraka Moon,Â GnatiKaraka Mars,Â DaraKaraka Jupiter

Jupiter Mercury dasha he should be in some dignified post as almost as a

reprentative of an official body resembling an ambassadorial type of

appointment. In Jaimini Chara dasha it will be Makar- Mesha- Mithuna from the

end of November 2008 and Mithuna has his amatyakaraka Sun aspected by darakara

Jupiter giving arajayoga.

Against this background, the retirement of Saurav Ganguly on a triumphant note

today (10 Nov) after India convincingly defeated Australia 2-0 in the serious

becomes memorable though like Eric Hollies bowling the great Bradman for a duck

in his last test, Saurav too got out for a duck in his last test. Comparisons

should not be made between that greatest cricketer who captained the team of

invincibles and Saurav who shaped a downtrodden team into a team of warriors and

had the satisfaction of seeing the climax of his work in the convincing Indian

victory today.

In the whole story the Hindi television channels seems never to give up the

description of Australians always as â€œKangaroosâ€ and not human beings as

though the Test series was between two legged Indian cricketers and two legged

Australians animals who also play cricket. Let me recall and reproduce what I

had written earlier

SAURAV GANGULI AND HIS CRICKET CAREER

K.N.Rao.

I was asked by the AAJ TAK channel which has been having my astrological

programme under DHARMA programme every Sunday morning at 9/30 AM and again at

4/30 pm what was my prediction about the future of Saurav Ganguli, the test

cricketers of India, whose cricket career had run into crisis. I could not make

any prediction unless I got Gauguli's birth details and birth time correct. I

was promised that it would be collected from Calcutta and passed on me. I got

the following data.

As requested by u, Saurav ganguly's date of birth is : July 8, 1972, time of

WHAT I SAID ON 22 AND 23 DECEMBER 2005

I cast the horoscope on this basis and on 22 December I had my prediction

recorded for Janmat Channel on 22 Dec,on 23 Dec for AAJ TAK and I also wrote

annual predictions for the Pioneer for the year 2006.

" Saurav Ganguly's cricket career is not over. He will play against some

international side in 2006 and play domestic cricket for some more years.

23 December 2005

Today (10 Nov) his careeer is over--the career of one of the five great ODI

cricketers of the world and the finest Indian cricket captain todate. What is

his future ? He is the greatest cricketer of Bengal, eclipsing Pankaj Roy the

other only other cricketer from that state to have played for India for many

years as an opener. Those days when Pankaj Roy played cricket as an opener of

India, we were students and often wondered if any other opening batsman would

score so many ducks and survive in Tests if he did not have powerful patrons in

the Indian cricket board.

Saurav experienced both powerful patronage, maltreatment. He was maltreated and

also discriminated against after Greg Chappel, an Australian coach, seemed to

behave more rudely with him than was palatable. It was not surprising because

his brother Ian Chappel also spoke and wrote against Saurav many times. Steve

Waugh also behaved arrogantly and unreasonably in that true Australian spirit

which showed that cricket was not a game but a war. It was Ian Chappel who

converted sledging into a weapon of Australian cricket which Steve Waugh

converted into a more unpleasant mental game. Greg Chappel was the third

Australian who was after the blood of Saurav. It was in that period that the

horoscope was made available when I had made the prediction that his career was

not over and I am happy that he played for three years after that prediction of

mine.

What then is his future ?

1. He will play in cricket matches still but not in Test of international

cricket.

2. He will still be in news holding some non cricket post of significance.

Look at his horoscope and the analysis given opposite it.

( 10 November 2008)

TAILPIECE

Just as I finished writing this I remembered the joke cracked by someone.Greg

Chappel coached Indian team which gave its worst performance in the World Cup.

He coached his own Australian team ---and here is the report of the performance

of the Australian team for which Ponting is being blamed

Dear Mr. Chakraborthy.

I take extreme pleasure to reply to your mail.

Raj yoga (Royal combinations) : Specific Planetary combinations which pomise posperity.

If the 'yoga' forming planets are benefic and are situated in a Trikona or Kendra house, the combination will be stronger and more beneficial than if the yoga-forming planets are malefic and situated in an Upachaya or Dusthana house. In this , defining 'upachaya' house there is difference of opinion between "Garga' when he opines, that the 3rd, 6th, 10th, and 11th houses cease to be Upachaya houses, if they are in aspect by malefic (here, we are discussing about Saturn) whereas Varahamihra, Sathyacharya and Yavaneswara say, that, the term, Upachaya is NOT applied to the 3rd,6th, 10th and 11 houses, 'provided they are not in aspect by malefics or by planets inimical to the lords of those houses'. Saint Bhatharanya also supports this contention in sloka : JEEVASVANAATHA......

I give below a list of 'Raj Yoga' foming combinations for each Ascendant:

Aries........ Sun and Jupiter; Taurus.........Mercury and Saturn; Gemini .......... Venus and Saturn; Cancer........Mars and Jupiter; Leo...........Jupiter and Mars; Virgo...........Saturn and Venus; Libra.......Saturn and Mercury; Scorpio............

Jupiter and Moon; Sagittarius.........Mars and Sun; Capricorn..........Venus and Mercury; Aquarius............Mercury and Venus; Pisces..........Moon and

Mars.

One of the most and simplest 'Raj Yofas' to compute is the association of the 5th and the 9th house rulers by conjunction, or mutual aspect (usully 7th look) or mutual 'reception'.

Dear Nisha

After going through mail, it is quite clear that the astro who had given the

reading has not conveyed all the facts of the chart and the parents in haste out

of enthusiasm have taken a decision for sending the son overseas for studies.

The child could go overseas as the chart strongly supports videsh yog. His saddi

satti has been going on since 2002 and with chandra in 6th house and sani also

hvg ownership of 12th house, sani always gives negative effects during saddi

satti. Saddi satti not only disturbs the network of all the planets, it also

brings hurdles in the positive results of any benefic dasha period during the

saddi satti period.

He opted for chemical engineering which is perfectly alright as Rochak Maha

Purush yog in karma bhav does supports chemical stream and with sani & surya

aspecting 5th house sani supports engineering, the selection was correct.

Here the astro did not see one thing that the child will not pursue the

engineering studies as his career, he will also hv break in his studies and he

will make his career in profession related to Venus.

Venus in the chart is the lord of the mind and also bhagya and it is placed in

12th house in yuti with mercury in the 12th house. Venus is very strongly placed

in the natal chart. Here in the chart mind is saying to do a activity related

to venus and with bhagya also supporting, karma lord also aspecting lagna which

is giving the confidence as mangal is the karak for confidence, lagnesh is in

influence of Surya, the king of planets placed in foreign travel bhav & more

over venus maha dasha is also currently on with antar dasha of rahu has tempted

him to join music, and music is related to venus.

Saddi satti and rahu always give break in studies.

His saddi satti will get over on 09.09.09 and his venus/rahu dasha period will

also get over on 21.10.09. After that period with proper councelling, the child

will show interest in his studies as venus/jupiter dasha period will give him

the intelligence to finish his studies, but music will continue to be his

passion which in the end will be part of his professional career.

Venus supports videsh yog hence end of saddi satti and also venus/rahu AD will

also support the child for further extension of his foreign visa.

It is always advisable for every parent to take out a insurance policy for every

child who goes overseas for studies as insurance policy compensates when the

term breaks due to certain reasons. I am also an insurance agent and have been

selling this policy regularly to all who travel overseas for studies. This works

as an supplement support for extra expenditure.

om namah shivayaom gurave namah

Respected jyotish gurus and members of the list,

I would be very grateful if you could help me understand this natives chart in

terms of his studies and future prospects .

DOB 7 JAN 1988,PLACE DELHI,TIME 0952

A few years back his parents had been told that he would go abroad and do very

well in his studies and profession.The parents pooled their resources and

managed to make this dream come true and sent their son to canada in 2007 to

pursue his studies in chemical engineering. Unfortunately the child did not

clear his terms and failed two and therefore has been debarred from doing this

course till the 2010 august .

Meanwhile the familys immigration to canada has come through very recently.

The parents are very worried about the future of their son.The native is also

confused about his career preferences and does not seem to have any clear

goals.Over the last two years he has been heavily involved in alternative music

....in canada .. and think he would like to make his career in it.

Please advise on what the family should do and the education/career

possibilities for the native

thank you

regards

Namaste,

Your present Guru AD in Sani MD combined with the effects of gochar Sani and

Guru give pointers for your marriage between 19th October 2009 to 15th November

2009.At least from now on your frantic search may yield fruitful results during

the above said period.Any slackness may postpone your marriage after 13th April

2012.

Your feedback after your accomplishment would educate me to draw predictive

judgments.

Dear Rita

Pls understand the technical reasons for ur divorce and delay in getting a

suitable match related to ur marital life.

Ur sani maha dasha is in its last phase, sani is debilated in ur 7th house. Ketu

is also aspecting ur 7th house. Sani & ketu are separative planets and their

aspect or placement in 7th house give separation and then divorce. More over

when dahsa of separative planet is going on, divorce do happen very fast and

they further delay in getting any other marital alliance.

One positive point in ur chart is that ur sani maha dasha will get over in jan

2010. After that ur mercuruy maha dasha will start. During that maha dasha

period u should look in terms of getting married.

Ur chart also says there is a strong chance for u to settle overseas.

First of all, please do not differentiate astrology between schools. Astrology is not something which originates out of some particular clan. It is knowledge which is spanned through vast areas and different people understand it differently. "Ekam Satya, vipranaam bahuda vadanti", truth is one but different people define it differently is saying.

Affliction is an affliction which is caused by malefics in a horoscope. It may be through conjunction, aspect or placement. Functional and Natural, both malefics included.

In Jaimini also the same principle is followed though different scholars of Jaimini have different methods of computing things like dasha, karakas and so on and on and on. Eight or seven karakas, about brahma, about swamsha, karakamsha, about myths associated with it and their own explanations. But surpringly some people fail to see the logic and then an endless debate follows. Just quoting a case in example here.

In methods of calculation of Chara Dasha, people add one year for exaltation and deduct two years for debilitation. If Jupiter is placed in Capricorn, then its dasha becomes Zero Years, which is unfathomable.

So long as we are able to stick to be basics, I think, our astrology would progress on the right lines. My request is, dont say, Schools, as then a meaningless comparison starts which is not healthy.

regards,

Mouji.

Dear friends,

The Vedic calendar accommodates both the

PurnimanataÂ months and the Amanta months. Lord Krishna mentions the

Purnimanta month Margashirsha in the Bhagavadgita and he also mentions

the Kusumakara (Vasanta) ritu, which has the seasonal months Madhu and

Madhava. In Vedanga Jyotish the month ofÂ Magha was Purnimanta and was

Nakshatra-based and thus sidereal while the Month of Tapa was Amanta

and was Seasonal (ie. Tropical) related to the start of the Wnter

season, which starts from the Winter solstice. Any destructive process

with wholesale condemning of the Sidereal calendar will thus not have

Vedic sanction and nobody will accept that.

Secondly have you

also noticed the double-talk of the people, who condemn and ridicule

paroksha-jnana, are now saying that if the festivals are not celebrated

in the time they feel proper then they will do harm. Can these people

give any pratyaksha evidence as to how the harm will come?

There

may be issues as to how to combine both the Sidereal and the Tropical

calendars together such that justice is done to both the Nakshatra

-based festivals as well as the season-based festivals. But questioning

the date of the Makar Sankranti will not help. Makar Sankranti will

always be celebrated when the Sun visits the house of his hostile son,

Saturn in the Makara Rashi. If anybody wants to celebrate the Winter

Solstice day it can be an additional festival and who does not like

festivals.

Sunil K. Bhattacharjya

July 17, 2004

Dear Friends,

Namaskar!

A humble request that we should not mourn on the day of â€œfestival of

lightsâ€ i.e. we should not celebrate Pitramavasya on the day of actual

Dipavali (Gujarati New Year!) on October 13, 04.

Every festival has a criterion. We celebrate Independence Day on August 15

every year. Why? Because India gained independence on that day. It is

immaterial whether August 15 is a Sunday or a Monday or Shravana or Bhadra.

Similarly, for celebrating religious festivals, our shastras have fixed

certain criteria. And as we know, fasts and festivals are celebrated for

the peace and welfare of ourselves and our kith and kin. Consequently, if

we do not adhere to the criteria/tenets fixed by the shastras, those very

fasts and festivals will do us more harm than good. Same is the case with

Muhurtas. We must therefore know the criteria.

E.g. for Vasanti Navaratra, viz. the lunar New Year, the criterion is

â€œChaitra Shukla Pratipatâ€ and for Rama Navmi it is " Chaitra Shukla Navmi " .

We must therefore know as to when Chaitra Shukla Paksha starts. This

information has to be based on the Vedas, Puranas and other shastras as well

as astronomy/geography , both ancient i.e. sidhantic and modern. Let us see

these criteria one by one:

1. The Vedas: All the four Vedas, Brahmanas and Upanasihadas etc.

state that the year comprises six seasons of two months each. Shishira-ritu

viz. winter and the month of Tapah start simultaneously with Uttarayana viz.

Winter Solstice i.e. the shortest day of the year. That very month is also

known as Magha. It is followed by other months viz. Tapasya (Phalguna) and

(Vasanta ritu comprising) Madhu (Chaitra) and Madhav (Vaishakha). Thus

solar Chaitra is the third month from the date of Winter Solstice.

Therefore, it should start these days three months after December 21 i.e.

around February 20. In fact, it started on February 19 in 2004.

2. Vedanga Jyotisha: The earliest recorded work on Vedic astronomy

is Vedanga Jyotisha also known as Rik/Yajur Jyotisha by Lagadha. It was

compiled around thirteenth century BCE i.e. about 3300 years back, most

probably in Kashmir. The fifth and the sixth verses of the same are:

swarakramete Somarkau yada sakam savasavav,

syat-tadadiyugam maghas-tapah shuklo dinam-tyajah

â€œWhen the sun and the moon while moving in the sky, come to

Vasava (Dhanishtha) star together, then the Yuga, the Magha (month) the

Tapas (season), the light half of the month, and the winter solstice

(Uttarayana) , all commence togetherâ€

prapadyate shavishshthadav suryachandramsav- udak

sarparde dakshinarkastu Magha shravanayoh sada

â€œThe sun and the moon turn towards North in the beginning of Dhanishtha and

towards South in the middle of Ashlesha. The sun always does this (turn

north) in the month of Magha and (turn south) in Shravana respectivelyâ€

Vedanga Jyotisha has made it clear in its seventh mantra that by

Uttaryana it means really the shortest day of the year instead of some

imaginary Uttarayana like January 14 of some Panchangakars of these days:

dharma vridhir apam prasthah kshapa hras udag-gatav

dakshine-tau viparyastav shanmuhurtyaynen tu

â€œDuring the sunâ€™s northward journey (six months of Uttarayana) the day

increases by one Prastha measure of water and the night becomes short.

During the southward journey (six months of Dakshinayana) , the conditions

reverse. The increase (of time) during an ayana is equal to six muhurtasâ€.

(S. B. Dikshitâ€™s translation for all the three mantras)

Further, as everybody knows, and as every Panchanga indicates,

Vasanta (Spring) starts exactly on the day of Madhu i.e. February 19/20. It

is a geographical phenomenon and cannot be wished away or altered. How could

then Vasanti Navratra start on March 21, 2004 after one month after the

start of the month of Madhu i.e. the real Vasanta (Spring)?

Thus there is absolutely no doubt that the Vasanti Navratras

which we are celebrating these days are not on the correct days as per

either the Vedas or the Vedanga Jyotisha or the phenomenon of seasons. But

then why are we celebrating them on wrong days? Because our panchangakars,

including the Rashtriya Panchanga do not tell us the correct days! Is it

that they do not know the correct criteria/days of these phenomena

themselves?

Madhava cannot be equal to Chaitra if it is equal to Mesha and Vasanti

Navratraas cannot wait for more than a month after the start of Vasanta

Ritu!: If you look at any Panchanga, including the Rashtriya Panchanga, in

any language, you will find that they have mentioned the start of the month

of Madhu and Vasanta Ritu on that date viz. February 19, 2004. Rashtriya

Panchanga lists the month starting with February 19 as the Vedic Mina. The

first New Moon (Shukla Pratipat) after the solar Chaitra i.e. Madhu (Vedic

Mina as per the Rashtriya Panchanga) is thus Chaitra Shukla Pratipat. It was

on February 21 in 2004. As such, the real Vasanti Navratras started on

February 21, 2004. It is known as Navreh in Kashmir, Gudi Padva in

Maharashtra and Ugadi in Andhra etc. That would have satisfied the criterion

of the Vedas that madhuscha madhavashcha vasantikav ritu (Yajurveda Samhita

4/4/11/1) i.e. Madhu (Chaitra) and Madhava (Vaishakha) are the months of

Vasanta i.e. Spring Season. Obviously, Chaitra Shukla Paksha is the start

of the first lunar month of Vasanta as per all the Vedas also.

Naturally, since as per all the Panchangas, Vasanta Ritu started on February

19, 2004, the solar Chaitra also should have started on that date of Madhu

i.e. February 19 but ironically it was made to start on March 14 and the

Rashtriya Panchanga starts it (Chaitra) on March 21 every year, when Madhava

i.e. Vaishakha is supposed to start as per all the Vedas and Puranas.

Surprisingly, Rashtriya Panchanga itself calls this month (March 21) as

Vedic Mesha and Madhava! How they can call Mesha and Madhava as Chaitra,

they only can say! Accordingly, the Lunar Chaitra was made to start on March

21 (which should have been actually Vaishakha Shukla paksha!) instead of

February 21! When Vasanta Ritu started on February 19, 2004, according to

all the Panchangas, the first shukla pratipat after that, which was on

February 21, 2004, should naturally have been Vasanti Navratra! Thus the

solar Chaitra and the Navratras, both, were â€œpostponedâ€ exactly by one month

against the injunctions of all the Vedas. Why? Because either our

panchangakars themselves have no knowledge about the criteria of festivals

or they are making a fool of us deliberately!

Vasanta Panchami in mid-winter: Then again, do you know when we were asked

to celebrate Vasanta Panchami by these very panchangakars according to whom

Vasanti navratras started on March 21? January 26, 2004! That means Vasanta

Panchami was celebrated two months before even their own Vasanta Shukla

Pratipat! Only the insane and dimwitted can celebrate Spring in mid-Winter!

Evidently, either our panchangakars are either themselves insane and

dimwitted or they treat us like that!

Ramanavmi: Goswami Tulsidas says in his immortal

Ramacharitamanasa:

navmi tithi Madhumas punita, sukalpachha abhijit hariprita

â€œShri Ram was born on navmi tithi of shukla paksha in the month of Madhu, in

Abhijit muhurtaâ€.

We have seen that Madhu or Chaitra and Spring (Vasanta) both commence

simultaneously around February 19 every year as per the Vedas and Vedanga

Jyotisha. In fact they are synonyms of one another. Let us now see other

authorities in this regard:

3. Vishnu-dharmortarap urana: As per â€œAlberuniâ€™s Indiaâ€, in 11th

century-India all the festivals were decided as per the criteria of

Vishnu-dharmotarapu rana. It says in 3/9/4-5

â€¦chaitro madhur-iti smritah,

vaishakho madhavah proktah, shuchir jyeshthah udahritah

shuklah proktastatha ashado nabhah shravan ishyete,

praushthapado nabhasyashcha ishashch ashvayujah smritah

urjakhyah kartikah prokto margshirshah sahastatha

sahasya paush ityukto maghah syat tap eva cha

phalgunashcha tapasyakhyo masoâ€¦

â€œ(i) Chaitra is known as Madhu (or Madhu is known as Chaitra)! (ii)

Vaishakha as Madhava; (iii) Jyeshtha as Shuchih; (iv) Ashadha as Shuklah (or

Shukrah); (v) Nabhah as Shravana; (vi) Praushthapada (Bhadrapada) as

Nabhasya; (vii) Ashvayuja (Ashvina) as Ishah; (viii) Urja as Kartika; (ix)

Margashirsha as Saha; (x) Sahasya as Pausha; (xi) Magha as Tapah and (xii)

Phalguna as Tapasya.â€

As we have seen above, Madhu started on February 19 and Chaitra

Shukla Pratipad started on Februrary 21 which means Ramanavmi should have

been on February 29, 2004. Our panchangakars (including, of course, the

Rashtriya Panfhanga!) made us celebrate Ramanavmi on March 30, 2004, whereas

Madhu ended on March 20 and the real Chaitra Shuklapaksha on March 7! Why

did they compel us to celebrate it on a wrong dayâ€”nay, even in a wrong

month? Because they know fully well that in spite of claiming to be

educated and intelligent people, we are not going to ask any inconvenient

questions! But then, are we really intelligent and educated if we do not

know anything about the criteria of our festivals? Or is it that our

panchangakars also are lacking in education and intelligence and they do not

know even ABC of our dharmashastras? Well, they alone can answer that

question for themselves!

4. Sidhantas: The earliest â€œmost accurate (?!)â€ (spashta-taro

savitrah) astronomical treatise of Indian astronomy is supposed to be the

Surya Sidhanta of 5th century AD. In Mana-adhyaya, verses 9-10, it says:

bhanor-makar Sankranteh shanmasa Uttarayanam

karkyadestu tathaiv

syat shanmasa dakshinayanam

dwirashi natha ritavas

tatoapi shishiradayah

meshadav dwadashaite masaistaireva vatsarah

â€œFrom Makar Sankranti start the six months of Uttarayana and from Karkata

Sankranti the six months of Dakshinayana. Each season starting with

Shishira (and Makara Sankranti) comprises two rashis (and) six seasons make

one yearâ€.

Lest there be any doubt as to what type of Rashis the Surya Sidhanta

is talking about, it

makes it clear in Bhugoladhyaya, verses 57 to 62:

meshadav to sada vridhir udaguttarto adhika

devamshe cha kshapa hanir vipareetam tatha asure

tuladav dyunishorvamam kshyay vridhav tayorubhe

deshkranti vashan nitem tadvigyanam puroditam

ayanante vilomena devasur vibhagayoh

nadi shashtya sakrid ahar nishapi asmin sakrit

tadantare api shashtyante kshayvridhav ahar-nishoh

parto vipareeto ayam bhagolah parivartate.

â€œDuring the half revolution beginning with Mesha, there is always an excess

of day to the north, in the hemisphere of the gods i.e. Uttarayana-- -greater

according to distance north---and a corresponding deficiency of the night.

In the hemisphere of the demons (Dakshinayana) , the reverse. In the half

revolution beginning with Libra (Tula) both the deficiency and excess of day

and night in the two hemispheres are the opposite of this. The method of

determining them, which is always dependent upon situation (desha) and

declination (kranti), has been before explained.

â€œThere occurs once, at the end of the sunâ€™s half revolution from

solstice to solstice---( Uttarayana to Dakshinayana) a day of sixty nadis and

a night of the same length mutually opposed to one another, in the two

hemispheres of the gods and of the demons. In the intermediate region, the

deficiency and excess of day and night are within the limit of sixty nadis

beyond this sphere of asterisms (bha) revolves perverselyâ€. (Burgessâ€™

translation) .

Two things are clear from the above to even a layman with a bit

of knowledge of geography of primary school level about the phenomenon of

seasons: i) It is only around March 21 (Spring Equinox) Mesha Sankranti

every year that day and night are equal and the length of day in the

northern hemisphere starts increasing as compared to the length of night.

ii) Then around September 23 (Autumn Equinox) Tula Sankranti, when

the day and night are again equal, the length of nights starts increasing as

compared to the length of days. And in the same order the day is the

shortest around December 21 (winter solstice) and longest around June 21

(Summer Solstice). These very Equinoxes and solstices are known as Mesha,

Karkata, Tula and Makar Sankranti respectively as per all the sidhantas and

shastras. There are no other such sankrantis either in the sidhantas or

modern astronomy.

5. Puranas: I have already quoted hundreds of proofs with

chapter and verse in my Panchangas and other articles. It is no use to

repeat them here again. Suffice to quote a few only from a couple of

Puranas. First the Vishnupurana: 2/8/28-31 and 67-68

ayanasyotarasyadav makaram yati bhaskarah

tatah kumbham cha menam cha rashe rashyantaram dvija (28)

trishu eteshu atha bhukteshu tato vaishuvatim gatim

prayati savita kurvan ahoratram tatah samam (29)

tato ratrih kshayam yati vardhate anudinam dinam

(30)

tatashcha mithunasyante param kashtham upagatah

rashim karkatam prapya kurute dakshinayanam

(31)

â€œIn the beginning of Uttarayana, the sun enters Capricorn

(Makara Rashi) there from going to Kumbha and them Mina. After having passed

through these three signs, it just gains vishuvati (equinoctial) speed

resulting in the day and night being equal on Mesha. After that, nights

start decreasing and the days increasing correspondingly daily. Then when

the sun is in the end of Mithuna Rashi, i.e. when it is just at the verge of

entering Cancer, the day is the longest then and Dakshnayana starts on that

dateâ€.

Sharad vsantyor Madhye vishuvam to vibhavyete

Tula mesh gate bhanav samratri divam tu tat

(67)

Karkatavasthite bhanav dakshiyanamuchete

Uttarayanam api uktam makarasthe divakare

(88)

â€œIn the midst of sharat ritu and vasanta ritu, vishuvas (equinoxes) take

place with the entry of the sun into Tula (Libra) and Mesha (Aries)

respectively and days and nights become equal on those two sankrantis. The

entry of sun into Cancer (Karkata) is known as dakshinayana whereas its

entry into Maraka is known as Uttarayanaâ€

Now Shrimadbhagavata, 5/21/4-6

yada mesh tulyor vartate tada ahoratrani samanani bhavanti yada vrishadishu

panchasu cha rashishu charati tada ahani eva vardhante hrasati cha masi masi

ekaika ghatika ratrishu (4) yada vrishchikadishu panchasu

vartate tada ahoratrani viparyayani bhavanti (5) yavad dakshinayanam

ahani vardhante yavad uttarayanam ratrayah (6)

â€œWhen the sun enters Mesha and Tula days and nights are equal on those dates

and the day starts getting longer as compared to nights when the sun passes

through Vrisha etc. five rashis then days keep on increasing and the nights

decreasing by one ghati every month. (After the day and night have become

equal on Tula Sankranti) the nights keep on increasing during the sojourn of

five rashis of Vrishchika etc. In short, during Uttarayana days keep on

increasing till Dakshinayana and after that nights keep on increasingâ€.

Vishnurhdarmotarapu rana 3/8/6-8 says

tula meshagate bhanav vishuvad dinam uchete,

dhanvato mithunantashcha ayane soasya dakshine,

â€œWhen the sun is in Mesha and Tula, they are the days of Vishuva i.e. days

and nights are equal then. From the end of Dhanu (start of Makara)

Uttarayana starts and from the end of Mithuna (start of Karkata) Dakshniyana

startsâ€

Any discussion on such topics is incomplete without appropriate references

from Shivamahapurana: We just quote one 5/51/54 from this Purana below:

madhavasya site pakshe tritiya ya akshayabida

tasyam yo jagadambayah vratam kuryad atandritahâ€¦

â€œThe tritiya of Shukla paksha of Madhava (!) is know as akshayaya tritiya.

One who observes a fast for Jagadamba on that date (gets immortal and

thousand fold results)â€

It is to be noted here that Akshaya tritiya is to be observed in

(lunar) Madhava that means according to Shiva-Mahapurana also Vaishakha does

not have any other existence besides Madhava! Thus the akshyaya tritiya

that we observed in 2003 on May 4, was against all the shastras since solar

Madhava had ended on April 20 and lunar Madhava on April 30! A similar

situation is going to crop up in 2005. We will be asked to celebrate

Akshaya tritiya on May 12, when solar Madhava will have ended on April 20

and lunar Madhava shukla paksha will start on April 8, 2005 which means it

should be celebrated actually on April 11, 2005!

Now obviously, if as per all the Vedas, Vedanga Jyotisha, Surya Sidhanta,

Bhagavata, Vishnupurana, Vishnudharmotarapur ana and Shiva Mahapurana etc.

etc. solar Shravana is another name of Dakshinayana viz sun in Karkata, it

starts on June 21 in 2004. The first shukla pratipat after that is on July

18. Therefore, that is the day when the Lunar Shravana starts in 2004 as

per all the Vedas and Puranas etc. As such, Shravana Purnima viz Raksha

Bandhan and Amarnath Yatra etc. should be celebrated on July 31 in 2004.

Why are our panchangakars asking us to celebrate it on August 29 instead?

Only because they treat the entire Hindu society as ignorant fools who have

no idea about the criteria of any festivals! Or is it that the

panchangakars do not know anything themselves but are just copying from

others like blind following blind?

Similarly, Janmashtami should be celebrated on the

Krishna-paksha Ashtami following that Shravana Purnima i.e. on August 7 in

2004. But we are asked to celebrate it on September 6! Why? For Godâ€™s sake

do ask your â€œPanditjiâ€ and let me know what he says!

6. To clinch the issue on the basis of Agama i.e. yogashastras, I

will quote the master-yogi i.e. Acharya Abhinavguptaâ€™ s Tantraloka: 6/114-116

shatsu shatsu anguleshu arko hridayat makaradishu

tishthan maghadikam shatkam kuryat tat-chotarayanam

sankranti tritaye vrite bhukte chashtadashangule

mesham prapte ravav punyam vishuvat par laukikam

praveshe tu tulasthe arke tadev vishuvad bhavet

Ih sidhi pradam chaitat dakshinayan- gam tatah

The translation of these mantras, as per the commentary of Jayaratha is,

(Linking yogic kriyas to seasons, it says, â€œAfter every six ungalas from the

hirdaya (the pranas go to) Makara etc. and make Magha etc. six such months

from Uttarayana starting with sunâ€™s transit into Makara. From Makra to

Mithuna is Uttarayana and in Magha sun transits Makara Rashi so till Ashada

when the sun transits Mithuna, Uttarayana lasts, After having crossed three

sankrantis (of Uttarayana)â€“eighteen unglas of Prana --= vishuvat Sankranti

arrives. Because on that day of Mesha sankranti the days and nights are

equal throughout the world that is why it is known as vishuvat. When the

sun enters Tula it is vishuva againâ€.

I do not think that there should be any doubt now in anybodyâ€™s

mind as to how we are being taken for a ride by these panchanga-makers. Or

is it that those panchangakars themselves are being taken for a ride by

someone else either knowingly or unbeknown to them? In either case, it is

literally killing our dharma.

As we have seen that Shravana Shukla Paksha starts from July 18, 2004,

therefore, Bhadra Shukla paksha will start from August 17. Naturally, the

first Krishna Pratipat after that i.e. Ashvina Krishna Paksha is the start

of Pitrapaksha, which means it starts from August 31, 2004. As such, the

Purnima shradha of Pitrapaksha falls on August 29, 2004, whereas the

Pitramavasya is actually on September 14, 2004. And by the same logic and

criterion Sharadiya Navaratras start from September 15 and Kartika Amavasya

falls exactly after about one month i.e. on October 13, 2004. And that is

the world famous festival of lights viz Dipavali! But tragically, our

panchanga-makers advise us to mourn on that day i.e. we are advised to

celebrate Pitraamavasa then! Why? Because they know that we have become

immune to all such things and are worried only about financial gains or

losses but not about our dharma! But we must know that by â€œmourningâ€ on the

day of actual Dipavali we will be losers not only financially but in every

worldly and spiritual sphere like that of the erstwhile ruling party! So

whether we mourn or burst crackers on the actual Dipavali (October 13), it

is up to us now!

7. Primary School level Geography: Let us see the situation

in the light of modern astronomy/geography . Initially, I was myself peeved

as to why the ayana and vishuva (Makara, Mesha, Karkata and Tula) sankrantis

had been praised to the skies by our Rishis, so much so that they say that

it is difficult even for yogis to catch the actual moment of such sankrantis

and any charities or fasts on such occasions yield thousand-fold results!

Let me explain it in a manner that is as non-technical as possible:

We know that the earth hurtles around the sun at about 30 kilometres per

second. (2) It also rotates on its axis, causing days and nights (3) The

equator is â€œprecessingâ€ at tremendous speeds. (4) Because the ecliptic is

inclined to the equator (obliquity of ecliptic) the earth/sun reaches the

minimum/maximum declination i.e. it is at the minimum/maximum distance from

the equator during its revolution of the sun at particular points of time.

The maximum obliquity of the ecliptic has remained around 23Â°28â€™ over the

last couple of centuries. Therefore that is the maximum north/south

declination that the sun/earth can attain these days during its journey via

the ecliptic. On that declination depends the phenomenon of seasons, which

is also directly responsible for increase/decrease in day/night durations.

The sun attains the maximum northern declination of about 23Â° 27â€™ on June

21. That means it is at a maximum northern distance from the equator on

that date. That is thus the last day of the summer season when the day is

the longest and varsha ritu starts. The sun (actually the earth) has then to

stop for a fleeting moment---less than a nanosecond-- - before climbing down

from that â€œhigh pedestalâ€ of North declination! That fleeting moment is the

real crucial moment and we can only â€œcalculateâ€ it correctly to some extent

with our computers with microprocessor speeds in GHz that also only with the

data from NASA and other overseas observatories and not from our

panchanga-makers including the Rashtriya Panchanga! This very moment of

â€œU-turnâ€ in the declination of the sun is the real dakshinayana as the earth

has reached the maximum declination of south or the sun the maximum

declination of north viz. 23Â° 27â€™ and has to turn back from there. This is

also known as Karkata Sankranti of the sun as the sun lies directly over the

tropic of Cancer (Karka-Rekha) on that date. I am sure everybody has read

that much of geography in his primary school days! There cannot be any

other Karkata Sankranti as per any shastra or sidhanta or modern

astronomy/geography since there is no other Karka Rekha (Tropic of Cancer)

or any other longest day of the year!

Similar is the case on December 21, when the sun reaches the maximum south

declination (of around 23Â° 27â€™) i.e. when the sun is at a maximum southern

distance from the equator. It has to stop then for a fleeting moment---less

than a nanosecond again--- before â€œturningâ€ back (U-turn!) from that high

pedestal. That fleeting moment is the real Uttarayana of the sun known as

Makara Sankranti since the sun is directly on the tropic of

Capricorn--- Makara-Rekha- --on that date. There is absolutely no other

Makara Sankranti either as per the shastras or sidhantas or modern

astronomy/geography since there is no other Makara-Rekha nor any other

shortest day of the year! That also is primary school level geography!

Similarly, during its sojourn around the sun; the earth, the equator and the

ecliptic join together for a fleeting moment---here also less than a

nanosecond-- when the longitude, latitude, declination and right ascension of

the sun/earth are zero! The sun (actually the earth) is in exact

â€œconjunctionâ€ with the ecliptic and the equator! It is thus a â€œTriveniâ€

and

that is the moment of Spring Equinox. With the declination of the sun being

zero degrees South it has to start moving away (cross the equator) again

from that â€œconjunction of the equatorâ€ from that moment of zero degrees

longitude-cum- latitude- cum-declination- cum-right ascension! That fleeting

moment is Vishuva â€“ Mesha Sankranti of the sun (Tula Sankranti of the

earth)! It is Vishuva because the earth is conjunct with the Vishuvat Rekha

i.e. the Equator. That is the moment when days and nights are really equal

throughout the globe. That is the zero â€œmoment/pointâ€ for all the

calculations of longitude, Right Ascension, Declination etc. and it is known

as Vernal Equinox. Vishuva also means, as per Jayaratha, the commentator of

Tantraloka, the days when â€œdays and nights are equalâ€. Spring Equinox also

means the same thing i.e Equi-nox: day is equal to night in the midst of the

spring season! This is the real Vaishakhi and the sun enters Uttara Gola

then i.e. it starts gaining in northern declination! There is no other

Vishuvat Rekha (Equator) with which the earth can be â€œconjunctâ€ during

Spring and therefore there cannot be any other Vishuva or Mesha Sankranti

since day and night are not equal during Spring on any other day. All the

panchangakars list Uttara-gola on that date but then why do they want us to

celebrate Vaishakhi/Vaishakha di/Meshadi i.e. solar New Year on April 14/15!

Because they know that we do not know ABC of geography! Or is it that they

do not know it themselves?

Then again after six months of that phenomenon, a similar situation comes

again, when the longitude and Right ascension of the sun are 180 degrees

(earth zero degrees). The longitude of the sun also can be taken as zero

degrees on that date if we measure it from Autumn Equinox instead of from

Vernal Equinox! The equator, the earth and the ecliptic have a confluence

for a fleeting moment---less than a nanosecond-- -again! As the earth is

conjunct the equator i.e. Vishuvat Rekha again, it is also known as

Vishuva----Autumn Equinox (Jala Vishuva or Tula Sankranti) around September

23. It is the midpoint (second month) of the Sharat-ritu. (That is why

Sharadiya Navaratras should start with the first Shukla Pratipat after

Sharat Ritu starts---on September 15 in 2004â€”and not when Sharat-kala is

almost overâ€”October 14, 2004----as is being done by our panchangamakers) .

The declination of the sun is zero degrees at that particular moment.

Again, all the panchangakars list it as â€œthe sun enters dakshina golaâ€ as

the sun (after crossing the Equator) starts gaining southern declination

from that moment. There cannot be any other Tula Sankranti/Jala Vishuva as

the earth is not conjunct Equator---and thus the day and night are not

equal---on any other day in Autumn! But then these panchangakars make us

celebrate Tula Sankranti on October 14/15! Why? Only because they will

lose their sinful crumbs if the tell us the facts! Or is it that they do

not know the facts themselves? A sad state of affairs, in either case!

Naturally, in ancient times, it was almost impossible for ordinary mortals

to calculate accurately to the nearest minute, leave alone the nearest

second, such phenomena as lasted hardly for nanoseconds! Really, hats off

to our Rishis! Obviously, our present â€œVamadevasâ€ and â€œParasharasâ€ who

advocate such Mesha etc. sankrantis as do not exist at all, are a slur on

the real Rishis and such fakes must be banished without delay from this land

of real Rishis.

8. Day-to-day experience: In fact, we do not need to brush up

even our primary school level geography since our day to day experience also

tells us that the sun does not rise daily from the same place. It is

exactly above the equator (bhumadhya-rekha) on March 20/21 dividing the day

into two â€œequal halvesâ€ of 12 hours each! That is why it is known as

Vasanta-Sampat or Vishuva or Mesha Sankranti or Madhava! It does not rise on

any other day from that point till its revolution around the sun is

complete. (That is why there cannot be two Spring Equinoxes or two Mesha

Sankrantis in a year!). After that date, we observe it rising in further

north (Uttara-gola! ) till June 21. And that is what is known as

Dakshinayana Day or Karkata Sankranti or Nabhah (start of Varsha Ritu) and

there cannot be any other Karka Sankranti as there cannot be another longest

day at all for the next 365 days! From that moment onwards the sun stops

rising towards north but turns back from there towards dakshina (south) till

it is exactly above the equator again on September 22/23, dividing the day

once again into two â€œequal halvesâ€ of 12 hours each. That day is known as

Sharat Sampat (Autumn Equinox) or Tula Sankranti or Vishuva or Urja and the

day and night are again equal on that date. Obviously, there cannot be

another Tula Sankranti for at least next 365 days! From that date onwards it

moves i.e. keeps on rising towards south (Dakshina Gola) rising in extreme

southern direction on December 21. That is the Uttarayana day since from

that date the sun stops moving further south and starts turning towards

north. It is this very day that is known as world famous Makara Sankranti or

Pongal or Udagayana or Tapah! That was the day for which Bhishma was

waiting to shed off his mortal coil! There cannot be another Makara

Sankranti as there cannot be another shortest day for the next 365 days from

that date onwards!

9. We have made a laughing stock of ourselves: Now we can see for

ourselves as to how artificial, illogical, unscientific and irrational and,

above all, anti-Vedic our Makara, Mesha, Karkata and Tula Sankrantis are

these days which are celebrated on January 14, April 14, July 14 and October

14 instead of December 21, March 21, June 21 and Sept. 23 respectively! All

the world is laughing at us that we do not know even the actual days of

solstices and equinoxes! When these very four cardinal points are such

topsy-turvy how can the other sankrantis (solar ingresses) be correct! As

these panchangakars do not let the solar months start from proper days,

lunar months also are made to lag behind by at least one month!

And we can rest assured that what is illogical, unscientific and irrational

could never have been advised by our dharmashastras, as seen above. It is

only our panchangakars who are prescribing such farcical festivals and

fairs! Why? Because they are worse than Duryodhana. Why? Because

Duryodhana had the courage to admit that though he could differentiate

between Dharma and Adharma yet he was in no mood to follow Dharma and desist

from Adharma! But these panchangakars do not have the courage to admit that

they have been fleecing the entire Hindu society for the last several

centuries just for some crumbs and should stop now from spreading that

adharma further. Or is it that they are so insensitive to even the natural

phenomena like sunrise and sunset or winter and summer that they cannot

differentiate between a natural Mesha Sankranti and an artificial one? But

then it is equally our fault as we never questioned them about the criteria

they adopted for such festivals/phenomena !

10. Muhurtas: When the dates of sankrantis and lunar months are

wrong how can the muhurtas fixed on such basis be correct? No wonder we are

celebrating marriages during the actual shradha-paksha and â€œenjoyingâ€

shradhas during the period actually auspicious for marriages!

CRC Report: It must be put on record that even the Saha Calendar Reform

Committee had warned in no uncertain terms about the situation these

panchangamakers have created for us, and I quote, â€œIn continuing to follow

the nirayana system, the Hindu calendar makers are under delusion that they

are following the path of dharma. They are actually committing the whole

Hindu society to adharmaâ€ (Page 260 of the Report of the Calendar Reform

Committee, 1955)

Earlier these Panchanga-makers used to boast (wrongly though)

that as they made correct predictions on the basis of such (imaginary)

rashis that is why they were following them for festivals also. But now even

that â€œgas-ballâ€ has been deflated since they have met their Waterloo with

the failure of their predictions about NDA forming the Government under

Atalji with the result that these Panchanga makers themselves are in

mourning these days! (Please see the attachment proving that there are no

rashis, much less astrology in the Vedas!)

In view of the above, I am listing below some of the most

important festivals from June 1 till December 31, 2004, as per all the

Vedas, shastras, sidhantas and modern astronomy. Just celebrate them

accordingly and do confront your panchangamaker/ panditji with these

unpleasant facts because unless and until we revolt against this anyay

(injustice), they will continue to hurtle us towards the abyss of adharma by

making us mourn on Dipavali!

There is a saying that you can take a horse to the river but you cannot make

it drink water! I have done my job by pointing out all the glaring

anomalies. I have substantiated my arguments with all the proofs in a

nutshell which even a layman can understand. It is up to the readers

whether they want to be like vegetables being tossed by panchangamakers

(including the Rashtriya Panchanga) or they want to really have some zest

for real dharma!

Please feel free to email or post this letter-cum-request to anybody you

like since everybody must join this dharmayudha for streamlining our

calendar.

With best regards,

Yours sincerely,

Avtar Krishen Kaul

Dear jitin, your question as to how saturn in 5 can lead to loss of job?

please find the answer in1952, shani no.5, mandi halat no.3 = mande waqt me

kissi ka dhan, kissi ki aulad, kissi ka jism barbaad ho.

so i think '' kissi ka dhan'' can mean loss of job.

Shri Sunil Bhattacharjyaji,

Jai Shri Ram!

< Can you explain why Kaushitaki Brahmana mentions Shivaratri on the Winter

Solstice day, ie on 1 Tapa and not on 12 tapasya?>

Could you please give the exact references, quoting the original Sanskrit

mantras from Kaushitaki Brahman with their translation which say that

Shivaratri is to be celebrated on the Winter Solstice day! Besides, is the

" Winter Solstice Day " also a term from Kaushitaki Brahman or is it an

English equivalent of some other word therein? If it is an English

equivalent of some other word, kindly let us know that original word as

well. By any chance, is it Uttarayana/udagayan a, a word which you would not

like to be associated with any Vedic lore?

Jai Shri Ram

This is a very interesting case and I made a Prashna chart for

it. Chart details are given below. The questioner is seen from the first house

which is Leo and the mind is in the 9th house which is the place of prayer or

temple inside the house. This is also the badhaka sthana indicating that there

is some disturbances in the prayer place. This is further confirmed as the

Prasna arudha is in Aries. This sign indicates rats and cats, rodents

definitely included. Mars is debilitated and retrograde showing one smart

rodent out there. Parivartana between Mars and Moon indicates that the food

offered is being taken. Mars in 12H shows the badhaka will be surely removed in

7 days time from today.

What to do?

1. check the Lamp and see if the rodent is coming to eat the

ghee

2. check the food items as it is possible the rodent now has

baby rodents/mice

3. Change the Lamp in the room and improve the lighting

A feedback in about 7 days is appreciated.

Best wishes

Sanjay Rath

Respected Sanjayji,

Pranam. Since last 5-6

days something very peculiar is happening at my home puja place. Every day

after we return home in the evening, we are seeing that major portion of the

flowers offered to various idols during morning puja (my wife does the puja in

the morning) are missing and the door of the temple is slightly opened. But the

idols are not disturbed at all.

Initially 2 days the flowers

remained disturbed and it seemed that somebody had torn the flowers in pieces.

But now the flowers are missing and there is no trace of the same anywhere

in the house.

There is one big rodent in our

house. We thought that the rodent was doing this. But in case the rodent enters

the temple, the idols are bound to get disturbed.

We are very confused at what is

happening. What this may be, why such thing is happening - can you please guide

us? Our all logics failed.

Regards

Jk

OM SHRI LAKSHMI NARASIMHAAYA NAMAHDear Sanjay Ji and Das Gupta Ji,

The Prashna was cast during Kuja Hora.Kuja is Vakra and is placed in Karka Rashi who is Badhakadhipati and is in 12th from Prashna Lagna.mandi is also posited in Lagna and his sign lord Surya is placed in 5th house which confirms the problems related to prayer room.but both Lagna and Mandi are aspected by Guru and this Guru also aspects Ketu,so the remedy is also given in the chart.Worship Lord Ganapati by performing Sri Ganapati Havan at the earliest and the problems will disappear miraculously.The problem was Shani is in 2nd house aspecting Ketu.This means JKD 's eyes are being tied eventhough the rats are moving in the prayer room.The reason is there is some kind of Ashuddha ( Rahu ) is in the prayer room.So 1st use cow dung and make Shuddhi of the prayer room,then perform Sri Ganapati Havan.All problems will vanish immidiately.

With Shri Hari Vayu Guru Naama Smaran,Ramadas Rao.
