Vedic astrology

 

 

||OM NAMAH SHIVAYA||

My Namaskar to all Learned Members,

 

 

I have started to learn Vedic Astrology on my own through net and

books. It will be nice and helpful for students of Vedic astrology like

me if you start Astrology classes in your groups which will teach

Astrology from base. Learning with help of books makes it difficult when

you come across a query where no one is there to explain it. So its my

humble request to all Learned members if possible please start astrology

classes. In this way the ancient knowledge will spread and will remain

alive. Please forgive me if there is any mistake in the mail.

 

Pranam,

 

Sanjay Narayan Naik.

Respected Rohini Ji,

 

(1)

<<<Insisting that there is a 100% perfect system which only rests on

belief and cannot ever be demonstrated because no Human being can be

100% accurate! Is that what they mean when they call something a paradox

or 'catch-22'?>>>

 

It does not rest on belief alone. I accepted the invitation of GB

Prashant Ji and wasted many weeks to prepare dozens of case studies

<http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains> (

http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains & c) for comparing the

ancient method (which some persons wrongly call MY method). You know

this well. No one came forward to disprove my work. My time was wasted,

because those who asked me to put forth evidences simply neglected to

look at them. You are making a wrong statement ( " 100% perfect system ...

cannot ever be demonstrated " ) : I insisted in AIA on demonstration but

was answered with abuses. In JR I was civillay asked to demonstrate, and

when I did so, my work was simply ignored because it made some persons

uncomfortable, who cannot give up their own 100% perfect system. Should

I remind you that you have faith in accuracy of your system because all

erroneous predictions later prove to be correct during post-event

analyses (it was your statement, and I support it, hence there is no

need of arguing). But there is a differwence between your " perfect "

system and mine : you work on a system due to your faith in it and

refuse to test the alternative because the majority (according to you)

is on your side. I do not have such a blind faith on any system. I had

100% faith in the applicability of physical astronomy for the sake of

astrology, but unlike you I found that physical astronomy does not

provide 100% accurate results even in post-event analyses. Then I

experimented with alternatives. I made softwares along many methods

available to me. It took me decades to resolve the issue. But if you

imagine me to be an obscuratist bigot, I cannot and do not want to

change your opinion.

 

(2)

<<< If people in Kaliyuga, mostly sinners by your understanding...>>>

 

I did not write Indian scriptures and ancient texts of Vedic Astrology

which you use. Most of persons in Kaliyuga are sinners according to

ancient texts, and you know this very well. I wonder why you are wasting

your time in twisting arguments for making fool of me. It is only during

the Modern Age that these sinners have attained sufficient majority and

boldness to declare ancients as idiots or at least under-developed

because they preached sanyaasa, daana, indriya-nigraha, brahmacharya,

etc.

 

Sage Parashara did not create only Ashtakavarga for Kaliyuga, but all

his works were for Kaliyuga, because he wrote at the fag end of

Dvaapar-yuga. Kaliyuga can be saved from perdition only by following

Sage Parashara (again, it is not my personal opinion alone, cf : Kalau

Parashara Smrtau).

 

I know you are a benevolent person basically, but sometimes you become

harsh unknowingly. Now, I must declare one thing which I had never

mentioned : I made Kundalee Software in 2005, but deliberately kept it

away from internet till late 2008. During that interval, I distributed

it through CDs , mainly in UP, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, etc, avoiding cities

like Delhi where educated persons could not tolerate the mention of

Suryasiddhanta due to prolonged propaganda against it. AIA invited me,

but consistently refused to test my work empirically. Same thing

happened in JR too, although here I was never abused. GB Prashant Ji

was very enthusistic initially when he thought demonstration of case

studies by me will give others a chance to test my work. But members

here could not find time to review my work which wasted many weeks.

 

You have earlier charged me of evangelicism. I never wished to convert

others to my system (in 2005, I wrote in my Hindi book that it is

impossible to popularize a siddhanta of Satayuga in Kaliyuga). I made a

software and presented it freely to others. That is all I had to do. It

is for others to decide which system they like. But some persons started

a war against me. It is undemocratic and unethical. Moreover, it is

impossible to choke a voice merely by means of abusing.

 

(3)

In previous post, I deliberately avoided to call MY system as perfect

which gave you so much pain. I simply said a perfect system exists. You

had also claimed that post-event analyses prove to be correct, which

shows your full faith in perfection of Jyotisha (but I know you cannot

prove all post-event analyses to be perfect by your method : I can

demonstrate it empirically if you have time. I know you are too busy to

waste your time on such topics).

 

Now, let us forget these useless topics which you should not have

raised. You know I am now gradually leaving all internet fora. Instead

of bickring over perfection of my or your system, can you ponder over

questions whether there are 16 or 60 vargas, which dashaa should be used

for what purpose, etc. It will better suit your genius. You are a fine

astrologer : your field is Phalita and I value your contribution to

Phalita Jyotisha. My main field was Ganita Jyotisha, but I devoted years

in Phalita researches too. If you concentrate on your work in Phalita it

will be good for all of us. Ganita Jyotisha cannot and should not be

discussed on internet. It is an obscure subject ( " rahasyam Brahma

samjnitam " ). Ganita Jyotisha of Suryasiddhanta cannot be proven by means

of empirical observation of planets. Its only proof is accuracy of

Phalita. GB Prashantr Ji did well to ask me to demonstrate. I did so.

The manner in which you and others ignored to comment on my

demonstrations did not disencourage me, because I had anticipated such a

response. But now I am really surprized at your comment that my system

cannot be demonstrated. I demonstrated it, and can do so again, but I

know you will ignore it again.

 

I had renounced all my paternal property due to my personal ashrama, but

I had kept a house aquired by my late mother for my sustenance. I am

selling it now, for buying latest softwares which can allow me to make

more user friendly programs. At present, I make softwares on Visual

Basic- 6.0 which is 12 years old and creates problems in installations

on later operating systems. It is a deliberate fault of Mircosoft that

its Visual Basic- 6.0 does not work on all operating systems made

bythge same company. The reaon is selling of newer versions by MS. I can

not charge any fees for my astrological consultancy or software, hence I

must sell my house. I do not know how I will sustain myself later, but I

know I will face no difficulty : my horoscope says so. You may deem me

to be a fool.

 

(4)

<<< from what I have heard from you a very accomplished...>>>

 

I had to 'brag' about by accomplishments AFTER a dedicated team started

shouting at me in a , refusing to test my method empirically.

Why you did not enquire from those institutions which tested me before

recognizing my works, before declaring that I advertize myself as an

accomplished person ?

 

You expelled me from your group withou any explicit reason and without

informng or warning me, although I never argued for or against any

system in your group and did not raise any serious issue because you

told me that you did not want to discuss anything serious with me unless

and until some relatives of Lord Macaulay accept my obscurantist ideas.

 

If some of my words are harsh, please forgive me. I have no desire to

convert you. What I really want is that you must test your system more

thoroughly and give more of you to the public at large.

 

I did not want to raise any debate on any particular system because I

found memebers are not interested in reviewing case studies from me. I

know the reason. Presently, the planets of MD and AD in my chart have

bitter enmical aspect on 10th house, hence I will not be recognized by

the majority even if my work is good. Hence, I cannot blame others.

Sir,

 

Your's study about rains in india are missing the actual astrological cause, far

away from truth, however effort is good.

 

Problem with such post event analysis is, one can successfully insist on his

findings whether applicable of not applicable.

 

regards,

Utkal

Vinay Jee,

 

You are putting words in my mouth/keyboard. Please do not take everything so

personally. The world is neither against you, nor the difficult path that you

have chosen to follow (or perhaps were destined to)! Yes, you will run into

people who will have their world-view and so on and there will be discord and

arguments and debates etc. But please read my message. All I was saying was:

 

If Astrologers are not capable by divine decree or whatever to be correct 100%

of times, how can a system/any system be demonstrated or even claimed to be

100%?

 

This is not to say that there might be 'systems' that might have better

predictive ability than others. There may also be the possibility that some

systems handle certain domains of predictions better than others.

Hypothetically, some system may be able to handle horary astrology better than

natal, while other system may be more attuned to doing mundane astrology etc.

But that 'qualifier', if applicable, definitely can help. If such is the case.

 

If the above does not seem a valid and reasonable question, then my apologies to

you for making you feel 'attacked' or your integrity etc questioned by me, a

stranger on internet, as far as we are concerned really!

 

Regards,

 

Rohiniranjan

Dear Shri Jha,

 

 

 

I came across the following line in your website:-

 

//For instance, if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it

is highly auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 6th and 11th

houses at the same time, it is highly malefic.//

 

 

 

I am trying to locate the lagna for Jupiter to be lords of 6th and 11th

houses at the same time. Kindly help me if I have gone wrong in

understanding what you wrote.

 

 

 

For Aquarius Lagna, Ju will be lords of 11 and 2

 

For Taurus Lagna, Ju will be lords of 8 and 11

 

For Libra Lagna, Ju will be lords of 3 and 6

 

For Cancer Lagna, Ju will be lords of 6 and 9.

 

 

 

For other Lagna Ju will be lords of neither 6 nor 11.

 

 

 

I request you to clarify my doubt.

 

 

 

Regards

 

 

 

Santhosh

Re: Vedic Astrology

 

 

 

 

 

Respected Rohini Ji,

 

(1)

<<<Insisting that there is a 100% perfect system which only rests on

belief and cannot ever be demonstrated because no Human being can be

100% accurate! Is that what they mean when they call something a paradox

or 'catch-22'?>>>

 

It does not rest on belief alone. I accepted the invitation of GB

Prashant Ji and wasted many weeks to prepare dozens of case studies

<http://jyotirvidya. <http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains>

wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains> (

http://jyotirvidya. <http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains>

wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains & c) for comparing the

ancient method (which some persons wrongly call MY method). You know

this well. No one came forward to disprove my work. My time was wasted,

because those who asked me to put forth evidences simply neglected to

look at them. You are making a wrong statement ( " 100% perfect system ...

cannot ever be demonstrated " ) : I insisted in AIA on demonstration but

was answered with abuses. In JR I was civillay asked to demonstrate, and

when I did so, my work was simply ignored because it made some persons

uncomfortable, who cannot give up their own 100% perfect system. Should

I remind you that you have faith in accuracy of your system because all

erroneous predictions later prove to be correct during post-event

analyses (it was your statement, and I support it, hence there is no

need of arguing). But there is a differwence between your " perfect "

system and mine : you work on a system due to your faith in it and

refuse to test the alternative because the majority (according to you)

is on your side. I do not have such a blind faith on any system. I had

100% faith in the applicability of physical astronomy for the sake of

astrology, but unlike you I found that physical astronomy does not

provide 100% accurate results even in post-event analyses. Then I

experimented with alternatives. I made softwares along many methods

available to me. It took me decades to resolve the issue. But if you

imagine me to be an obscuratist bigot, I cannot and do not want to

change your opinion.

 

(2)

<<< If people in Kaliyuga, mostly sinners by your understanding...>>>

 

I did not write Indian scriptures and ancient texts of Vedic Astrology

which you use. Most of persons in Kaliyuga are sinners according to

ancient texts, and you know this very well. I wonder why you are wasting

your time in twisting arguments for making fool of me. It is only during

the Modern Age that these sinners have attained sufficient majority and

boldness to declare ancients as idiots or at least under-developed

because they preached sanyaasa, daana, indriya-nigraha, brahmacharya,

etc.

 

Sage Parashara did not create only Ashtakavarga for Kaliyuga, but all

his works were for Kaliyuga, because he wrote at the fag end of

Dvaapar-yuga. Kaliyuga can be saved from perdition only by following

Sage Parashara (again, it is not my personal opinion alone, cf : Kalau

Parashara Smrtau).

 

I know you are a benevolent person basically, but sometimes you become

harsh unknowingly. Now, I must declare one thing which I had never

mentioned : I made Kundalee Software in 2005, but deliberately kept it

away from internet till late 2008. During that interval, I distributed

it through CDs , mainly in UP, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, etc, avoiding cities

like Delhi where educated persons could not tolerate the mention of

Suryasiddhanta due to prolonged propaganda against it. AIA invited me,

but consistently refused to test my work empirically. Same thing

happened in JR too, although here I was never abused. GB Prashant Ji

was very enthusistic initially when he thought demonstration of case

studies by me will give others a chance to test my work. But members

here could not find time to review my work which wasted many weeks.

 

You have earlier charged me of evangelicism. I never wished to convert

others to my system (in 2005, I wrote in my Hindi book that it is

impossible to popularize a siddhanta of Satayuga in Kaliyuga). I made a

software and presented it freely to others. That is all I had to do. It

is for others to decide which system they like. But some persons started

a war against me. It is undemocratic and unethical. Moreover, it is

impossible to choke a voice merely by means of abusing.

 

(3)

In previous post, I deliberately avoided to call MY system as perfect

which gave you so much pain. I simply said a perfect system exists. You

had also claimed that post-event analyses prove to be correct, which

shows your full faith in perfection of Jyotisha (but I know you cannot

prove all post-event analyses to be perfect by your method : I can

demonstrate it empirically if you have time. I know you are too busy to

waste your time on such topics).

 

Now, let us forget these useless topics which you should not have

raised. You know I am now gradually leaving all internet fora. Instead

of bickring over perfection of my or your system, can you ponder over

questions whether there are 16 or 60 vargas, which dashaa should be used

for what purpose, etc. It will better suit your genius. You are a fine

astrologer : your field is Phalita and I value your contribution to

Phalita Jyotisha. My main field was Ganita Jyotisha, but I devoted years

in Phalita researches too. If you concentrate on your work in Phalita it

will be good for all of us. Ganita Jyotisha cannot and should not be

discussed on internet. It is an obscure subject ( " rahasyam Brahma

samjnitam " ). Ganita Jyotisha of Suryasiddhanta cannot be proven by means

of empirical observation of planets. Its only proof is accuracy of

Phalita. GB Prashantr Ji did well to ask me to demonstrate. I did so.

The manner in which you and others ignored to comment on my

demonstrations did not disencourage me, because I had anticipated such a

response. But now I am really surprized at your comment that my system

cannot be demonstrated. I demonstrated it, and can do so again, but I

know you will ignore it again.

 

I had renounced all my paternal property due to my personal ashrama, but

I had kept a house aquired by my late mother for my sustenance. I am

selling it now, for buying latest softwares which can allow me to make

more user friendly programs. At present, I make softwares on Visual

Basic- 6.0 which is 12 years old and creates problems in installations

on later operating systems. It is a deliberate fault of Mircosoft that

its Visual Basic- 6.0 does not work on all operating systems made

bythge same company. The reaon is selling of newer versions by MS. I can

not charge any fees for my astrological consultancy or software, hence I

must sell my house. I do not know how I will sustain myself later, but I

know I will face no difficulty : my horoscope says so. You may deem me

to be a fool.

 

(4)

<<< from what I have heard from you a very accomplished...>>>

 

I had to 'brag' about by accomplishments AFTER a dedicated team started

shouting at me in a , refusing to test my method empirically.

Why you did not enquire from those institutions which tested me before

recognizing my works, before declaring that I advertize myself as an

accomplished person ?

 

You expelled me from your group withou any explicit reason and without

informng or warning me, although I never argued for or against any

system in your group and did not raise any serious issue because you

told me that you did not want to discuss anything serious with me unless

and until some relatives of Lord Macaulay accept my obscurantist ideas.

 

If some of my words are harsh, please forgive me. I have no desire to

convert you. What I really want is that you must test your system more

thoroughly and give more of you to the public at large.

 

I did not want to raise any debate on any particular system because I

found memebers are not interested in reviewing case studies from me. I

know the reason. Presently, the planets of MD and AD in my chart have

bitter enmical aspect on 10th house, hence I will not be recognized by

the majority even if my work is good. Hence, I cannot blame others.

Rohini Da,

 

I believe you are sincere and I take my words back. Your words were :

 

<<< If Astrologers are not capable by divine decree or whatever to be correct

100% of times, how can a system/any system be demonstrated or even claimed to be

100%? >>>

 

The answer is simple : by means of post-event analysis, it is easy to find out

whether the error was due to faults in astrological system or in the human

limitation of astrologwer in using that system. I have faltered many a times in

making correct forecasts, and sometimes my forecasts even proved to be just

contrary to reality, sometimes due to hurry and at some accassions due to

limitations of present day Phalita Jyotisha. For instance, how can we decide

which chart should get primacy in predicting an event if the birth-chart,

relavant varga, varsha-pravesha chart, AV, etc provide contradictory readings,

and how we should decide which dashaa system to follow under which conditions

??? These limitations do not prove that the software was flawed. a software is

basically a mathematical system and no phalita system has ever been adequately

programmed by anyone : most of the phalita jobs are manually done by the

astrologer. In post-event analysis, it is not difficult for experienced persons

like you to decide whether the error, if any, in predictions was due to

mathematical system or due to limitations of phalita. If my words caused you

pain, I apologise.

Hypothetically, some system may be able to handle horary astrology better than

natal, while other system may be more attuned to doing mundane astrology etc.

But that 'qualifier', if applicable, definitely can help. If such is the case.

Santhosh ji,

 

 

 

 

The following page

<http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha> contained

this statement :

 

 

 

 

http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha

 

 

 

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 6th and 11th houses

at the same time, it is highly malefic.

 

 

 

This erroneous sentence has been revised as :

 

 

 

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 3rd and 6th houses

at the same time, it is highly malefic as well. "

 

You pointed at one error, for which I thank you. I wrote this line with

a particular chart in mind which I could not reveal, and the unconscious

Utkal Ji,

 

If you refer to my paper

<http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/NASA%27s_Report%3B_%26_my_Paper_ac\

cepted_by_CAOS%2C_IISc> 'A New Approach to Rain Forecasting

<http://weatherindia.wetpaint.com/page/A+New+approach+to+Rain+Forecastin\

g> ' , then you are correct. This paper was accepted by CAOS, Indian

Institute of Science and was addressed to weather scientists. Hence,

there was no question of mentionimng astrology in this paper.

 

But if you are referring to This Page

<http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Annual+Rains> which I had

mentioned in previous post, which seems more likely, then I must assert

that you entertain entirely different notions of astrology. All 40

charts have been analysed strictly according to traditional rules of

jyotisha, esp according to BPHS. Yet you say " Your's study about rains

in india are missing the actual astrological cause, far away from

truth " .

 

If traditional method of chart analysis is beyond the scope of

astrology, then I must assume you practise some non-Indian variety of

astrology which has no use of accepted methods of vedic Jyotisha. But

this is not the case, because you also charge of untruth ( " far away from

truth " ). I have provided links for original rainfall data and if my

method is biological or chemical instead of astrological, then you

should provide some astrological explanation for the official rainfall

data. I know you cannot, which is clear from your third statement :

 

" Problem with such post-event analysis is, one can successfully insist

on his findings whether applicable or not "

 

Post-event analysis by me can be brushed aside as my manipulation of

data or method, as you say, while pre-event predictions by me which have

been tested by Climate branch of NASA headquarters in USA and IMD in

India (cf.

http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/NASA%27s_Report%3B_%26_my_Paper_acc\

epted_by_CAOS%2C_IISc)

are proofs of the veracity of my method.

 

If you compel NASA to agree even to waste its precious time on your rain

forecasts, then I will resign from Jyotisha.

 

Sir, I know the cause of your anguish. I used JHORA for Drik-pakshiya

charts. You might have imagined that I wanted to disprove JHORA. But I

explicitly mentioned that I used JHORA for the following reason :

 

" JHora software can be used for Drig-pakshiya computations (ie,

based on physical astronomy). JHora uses astronomical database supplied

by Swiss Ephemeris, the latter being based on NASA's JPL datasets, which

are most reliable data of modern physical astronomy. A simplified

software of Swiss Ephemeris can be freely downloaded by anyone, which

shows half a minute errors. Hence JHora is reliable as far as physical

planetary positions are concerned. "

 

Hence, I was not biased. It is you who is biased. You portray me as an

untrue non-astrologer ( " missing the actual astrological cause, far away

from truth " ). Ask Jagannath Puri's Govardhana Math which is publishing

panchanga prepared by me.

 

Instead of finding any specific fault in any specific chart analysis by

me, you are throwing me and my works entirely at one go, levelling

uncivil charges, without even trying to provide any evidence of my

faults. Hence, your charges are merely libel and not review of my work.

You forget there are strich Cyber Laws for preventing libel in internet

fora, and every person can be easily traced. But I will noty waste my

time on such endeavours.

 

What you consider to be " astrological cause " can be anybody's guess, but

I am sure your astrology is certainly not based on what all Vedic

Asgtrologers are practising. there are many astrologers who differ from

me on mathematical groulds, but you are the first person who have

charged my analysis of " missing the actual astrological cause, far away

from truth " !!

 

I know many persons are distorting Vedic Astrology and some of their

disciples are so ill-educated by these self proclaimed gurus that they

regard traditional methods as non-0astrological. As you have not

clarified your asterological moorings, I do not know which school you

belong to. I hope you will try to avoid insulting remarks and try to

confine your comments to actual criticism of chart analysis by me or by

others. If I am false, you must provide proofs, otherwise any vague

charge is mere abuse.

your birth details for my study

Re: Vedic Astrology

 

Saturday, December 19, 2009, 5:49 AM

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Utkal Ji,

 

 

 

If you refer to my paper

 

<http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ NASA%27s_ Report%3B_ %26_my_Paper_ ac\

 

cepted_by_CAOS% 2C_IISc> 'A New Approach to Rain Forecasting

 

<http://weatherindia .wetpaint. com/page/ A+New+approach+ to+Rain+Forecast in\

 

g> ' , then you are correct. This paper was accepted by CAOS, Indian

 

Institute of Science and was addressed to weather scientists. Hence,

 

there was no question of mentionimng astrology in this paper.

 

 

 

But if you are referring to This Page

 

<http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ Annual+Rains> which I had

 

mentioned in previous post, which seems more likely, then I must assert

 

that you entertain entirely different notions of astrology. All 40

 

charts have been analysed strictly according to traditional rules of

 

jyotisha, esp according to BPHS. Yet you say " Your's study about rains

 

in india are missing the actual astrological cause, far away from

 

truth " .

 

 

 

If traditional method of chart analysis is beyond the scope of

 

astrology, then I must assume you practise some non-Indian variety of

 

astrology which has no use of accepted methods of vedic Jyotisha. But

 

this is not the case, because you also charge of untruth ( " far away from

 

truth " ). I have provided links for original rainfall data and if my

 

method is biological or chemical instead of astrological, then you

 

should provide some astrological explanation for the official rainfall

 

data. I know you cannot, which is clear from your third statement :

 

 

 

" Problem with such post-event analysis is, one can successfully insist

 

on his findings whether applicable or not "

 

 

 

Post-event analysis by me can be brushed aside as my manipulation of

 

data or method, as you say, while pre-event predictions by me which have

 

been tested by Climate branch of NASA headquarters in USA and IMD in

 

India (cf.

 

http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ NASA%27s_ Report%3B_ %26_my_Paper_ acc\

 

epted_by_CAOS% 2C_IISc)

 

are proofs of the veracity of my method.

 

 

 

If you compel NASA to agree even to waste its precious time on your rain

 

forecasts, then I will resign from Jyotisha.

 

 

 

Sir, I know the cause of your anguish. I used JHORA for Drik-pakshiya

 

charts. You might have imagined that I wanted to disprove JHORA. But I

 

explicitly mentioned that I used JHORA for the following reason :

 

 

 

" JHora software can be used for Drig-pakshiya computations (ie,

 

based on physical astronomy). JHora uses astronomical database supplied

 

by Swiss Ephemeris, the latter being based on NASA's JPL datasets, which

 

are most reliable data of modern physical astronomy. A simplified

 

software of Swiss Ephemeris can be freely downloaded by anyone, which

 

shows half a minute errors. Hence JHora is reliable as far as physical

 

planetary positions are concerned. "

 

 

 

Hence, I was not biased. It is you who is biased. You portray me as an

 

untrue non-astrologer ( " missing the actual astrological cause, far away

 

from truth " ). Ask Jagannath Puri's Govardhana Math which is publishing

 

panchanga prepared by me.

 

 

 

Instead of finding any specific fault in any specific chart analysis by

 

me, you are throwing me and my works entirely at one go, levelling

 

uncivil charges, without even trying to provide any evidence of my

 

faults. Hence, your charges are merely libel and not review of my work.

 

You forget there are strich Cyber Laws for preventing libel in internet

 

fora, and every person can be easily traced. But I will noty waste my

 

time on such endeavours.

 

 

 

What you consider to be " astrological cause " can be anybody's guess, but

 

I am sure your astrology is certainly not based on what all Vedic

 

Asgtrologers are practising. there are many astrologers who differ from

 

me on mathematical groulds, but you are the first person who have

 

charged my analysis of " missing the actual astrological cause, far away

 

from truth " !!

 

 

 

I know many persons are distorting Vedic Astrology and some of their

 

disciples are so ill-educated by these self proclaimed gurus that they

 

regard traditional methods as non-0astrological. As you have not

 

clarified your asterological moorings, I do not know which school you

 

belong to. I hope you will try to avoid insulting remarks and try to

 

confine your comments to actual criticism of chart analysis by me or by

 

others. If I am false, you must provide proofs, otherwise any vague

 

charge is mere abuse.

Dear Vinay ji,

 

Your words to me have always been civilized and hopefully I have always

reciprocated in kind. I do not easily get offended or hurt or react even when

people use accusatory, insulting trashy/gutter language! And I have seen many

examples of that on internet. So, how can I be offended or upset by what you

said?

 

" Getting back to the sheep " as the French expression goes, yes you have a very

simple way of testing the 100% accuracy post-hoc, but here is the problem:

Astrological rules; in my experiences personal, observed in others or heard from

them; are not black and white and thus while one can 'justify' events but the

same 'khichdi' can be cooked in many different ways (thok-peet jyotish as I have

heard it being referred as!)

 

Please note, I do not mean some fancy, imaginative, human-engineered

astrological system, but using straight forward jyotish rules from standard

texts such as BPHS, Vrihatjataka, Phaldeepika, Laghu Parashari, Uttarkalamrita,

Satyajataka, Jaimini sutras, and cautiously including Chandra Kala Nadi etc.

 

Kind regards,

 

Rohiniranjan

whether the error was due to faults in astrological system or in the human

limitation of astrologwer in using that system. I have faltered many a times in

making correct forecasts, and sometimes my forecasts even proved to be just

contrary to reality, sometimes due to hurry and at some accassions due to

limitations of present day Phalita Jyotisha. For instance, how can we decide

which chart should get primacy in predicting an event if the birth-chart,

relavant varga, varsha-pravesha chart, AV, etc provide contradictory readings,

and how we should decide which dashaa system to follow under which conditions

??? These limitations do not prove that the software was flawed. a software is

basically a mathematical system and no phalita system has ever been adequately

programmed by anyone : most of the phalita jobs are manually done by the

astrologer. In post-event analysis, it is not difficult for experienced persons

like you to decide whether the error, if any, in predictions was due to

mathematical system or due to limitations of phalita. If my words caused you

pain, I apologise.

Hypothetically, some system may be able to handle horary astrology better than

natal, while other system may be more attuned to doing mundane astrology etc.

But that 'qualifier', if applicable, definitely can help. If such is the case.

Rohini Da,

 

You are right. I have also experienced same sort of khichdi analyses,

not only by others but even by me. I sometimes learn and improve my

phalita errors by means of post-event analyses. But I have NEVER found a

single case of Ganita-error, esp after Kundalee software was in workable

form, and all errors hitherto caught by me are about phalita. That is

why I call my ganita system foolproof. Many people think it to be a

far-fetched claim. They fail to see my point that even a 100% perfect

ganita system can give 100% wrong phalita (predictive) result, sometimes

due to limitations of the astrologer and sometimes due to built-in

obscurities and ambiguities in traditional phalita jyotisha itself which

you mention.

 

The moment you start testing this alternative ganita model, you will see

my point. Without testing, all discussion is mere gossip. I am trying to

sell my house to purchase new platforms for updating my software for

various operating systems. I belong to one of the topmost families of my

home state. But I renounced paternal heritage long ago (not only

property, but even ideological 'heritage'). That is why I have to sell

my house now. I am not going to lose anything by selling it.

And I have seen many examples of that on internet. So, how can I be

offended or upset by what you said?

have a very simple way of testing the 100% accuracy post-hoc, but here

is the problem: Astrological rules; in my experiences personal, observed

in others or heard from them; are not black and white and thus while one

can 'justify' events but the same 'khichdi' can be cooked in many

different ways (thok-peet jyotish as I have heard it being referred as!)

Chandra Kala Nadi etc.

to find out whether the error was due to faults in astrological system

or in the human limitation of astrologwer in using that system. I have

faltered many a times in making correct forecasts, and sometimes my

forecasts even proved to be just contrary to reality, sometimes due to

hurry and at some accassions due to limitations of present day Phalita

Jyotisha. For instance, how can we decide which chart should get primacy

in predicting an event if the birth-chart, relavant varga,

varsha-pravesha chart, AV, etc provide contradictory readings, and how

we should decide which dashaa system to follow under which conditions

??? These limitations do not prove that the software was flawed. a

software is basically a mathematical system and no phalita system has

ever been adequately programmed by anyone : most of the phalita jobs are

manually done by the astrologer. In post-event analysis, it is not

difficult for experienced persons like you to decide whether the error,

if any, in predictions was due to mathematical system or due to

limitations of phalita. If my words caused you pain, I apologise.

Dear Sirs,

May be it is either comrehension or our own built in ability(dasa system too had

to be kept in view) before v attempt to summarise:

"  //due to built-inobscurities and ambiguities in traditional phalita jyotisha

itself which

you mention " //.

Probably theoritical by way of lineage the system is unparallel.But

contradictions if any it beyond our consistentencies

Rohini Da,

 

You are right. I have also experienced same sort of khichdi analyses,

not only by others but even by me. I sometimes learn and improve my

phalita errors by means of post-event analyses. But I have NEVER found a

single case of Ganita-error, esp after Kundalee software was in workable

form, and all errors hitherto caught by me are about phalita. That is

why I call my ganita system foolproof. Many people think it to be a

far-fetched claim. They fail to see my point that even a 100% perfect

ganita system can give 100% wrong phalita (predictive) result, sometimes

due to limitations of the astrologer and sometimes due to built-in

obscurities and ambiguities in traditional phalita jyotisha itself which

you mention.

 

The moment you start testing this alternative ganita model, you will see

my point. Without testing, all discussion is mere gossip. I am trying to

sell my house to purchase new platforms for updating my software for

various operating systems. I belong to one of the topmost families of my

home state. But I renounced paternal heritage long ago (not only

property, but even ideological 'heritage'). That is why I have to sell

my house now. I am not going to lose anything by selling it.

And I have seen many examples of that on internet. So, how can I be

offended or upset by what you said?

have a very simple way of testing the 100% accuracy post-hoc, but here

can 'justify' events but the same 'khichdi' can be cooked in many

different ways (thok-peet jyotish as I have heard it being referred as!)

to find out whether the error was due to faults in astrological system

or in the human limitation of astrologwer in using that system. I have

faltered many a times in making correct forecasts, and sometimes my

forecasts even proved to be just contrary to reality, sometimes due to

hurry and at some accassions due to limitations of present day Phalita

Jyotisha. For instance, how can we decide which chart should get primacy

in predicting an event if the birth-chart, relavant varga,

varsha-pravesha chart, AV, etc provide contradictory readings, and how

we should decide which dashaa system to follow under which conditions

??? These limitations do not prove that the software was flawed. a

software is basically a mathematical system and no phalita system has

ever been adequately programmed by anyone : most of the phalita jobs are

manually done by the astrologer. In post-event analysis, it is not

difficult for experienced persons like you to decide whether the error,

if any, in predictions was due to mathematical system or due to

limitations of phalita. If my words caused you pain, I apologise.

Vattem Krishnan ji,

 

The system is indeed unparalleled as you say, but there are some

obscurities without which the traditional phalita system would have

ALWAYS enabled all learned vedic Jyotishis to make 100% accurate

predictions.

 

Some of these obscurities are intentional : sages wrote in sutra form

and explanations were oral taught only to the chosen disciples which

have not been explained in modern commentaries properly, whatever be the

reason.

 

Another source of confusion is interpolation or distorion by later

authors (in BPHS & c).

 

Third cause is loss of some portions.

 

Whatever be the cause, it is undeniable that our phalita theory is not

completely explained in any existing commentary, for instance of BPHS.

For instance, WHY all planets have full aspect on the opposite house ?

Why Vimshottari span is of 120 years ? Why 7th house is of Kaama and not

of income or of learning ? Unless we understand all such things

properly, we cannot claim to have a complete theory. A theory must be

completely understandable. Same is the case with our traditional Ganita

theory. Burgess wrote that he could not understand why four samskaaras

in a particular sequence were made to make true planets out of mean.

 

But it does not mean our traditional jyotisha is incomplete or flawed.

It only means that we possess it in a sutra form and we lack fuller

explanations of many concepts. The very nature of phalita rules & c

suggests that we will never be able to logically explain all such things

completely. But we must try.

Dear Shri Jha Ji and others

We know that jyotsh is a divine field and whar ever it has been transmitted in

the form of sruti and smriti has also desired/intended that an Astrologer should

possess some basic comptencies.These basic comptetncies are with rference to:

His broad nature to understand about planets

mianly to harmony in thoughts and actions etc.

his ability to understanding mathematics

his ability understand leagal as Nyayavadi as well as logical aspect

need for his impartiality approach and need also to be philosophical.

also observe desh,kaal maan conditions

maintaining strict confidentiality

able to to explain required results

with this back ground and the scholars who possess them and be able to give

their satisfactory views fo a student to understand further: // we will never

be able to logically explain all such thingscompletely.//

2.When they spoke about drishti they spoke about special aspecta of Planets

Mangal,Shani and for all other planets inccluding visionaries it is always 7 the

aspect.It is the mathemetical 90 deg,menat for 7th and a straight line aspect.

Besides drishti of planets has different dimensions explained.

All these issues perhaps difficult to in a capsulate form.Probably those gifted

in to read in Sanskrit form might be able to understand but for communication in

alogical manner might have hindered them.so they want readers/students/followers

to come up with their own explicable methods.

3.Ultimately as the progression of knowledge is taking place from geneartion to

generations,it has probably taking a tasty kichadi form leading to increased

following of jyostih and evincing interest.

4.Perhaps when ever distortions r felt and observed knowlegeable people and

seniors need to come forward with logical explanation,even it might looks to be

not very cinvincing.Yet a divine field has some thing to conjure 'coz of human

limitation.

5.people withh wisdom and perfect understanding made to explain what is

necessary and leave to the wise men in the nextgen to eloberate and understand

seems to be the approach.

Vattem Krishnan ji,

 

The system is indeed unparalleled as you say, but there are some

obscurities without which the traditional phalita system would have

ALWAYS enabled all learned vedic Jyotishis to make 100% accurate

predictions.

 

Some of these obscurities are intentional : sages wrote in sutra form

and explanations were oral taught only to the chosen disciples which

have not been explained in modern commentaries properly, whatever be the

reason.

 

Another source of confusion is interpolation or distorion by later

authors (in BPHS & c).

 

Third cause is loss of some portions.

 

Whatever be the cause, it is undeniable that our phalita theory is not

completely explained in any existing commentary, for instance of BPHS.

For instance, WHY all planets have full aspect on the opposite house ?

Why Vimshottari span is of 120 years ? Why 7th house is of Kaama and not

of income or of learning ? Unless we understand all such things

properly, we cannot claim to have a complete theory. A theory must be

completely understandable. Same is the case with our traditional Ganita

theory. Burgess wrote that he could not understand why four samskaaras

in a particular sequence were made to make true planets out of mean.

 

But it does not mean our traditional jyotisha is incomplete or flawed.

It only means that we possess it in a sutra form and we lack fuller

explanations of many concepts. The very nature of phalita rules & c

suggests that we will never be able to logically explain all such things

completely. But we must try.

To Vattem Krishnan Ji and others,

 

Krishnan Ji has rightly mentioned that BPHS has outlined the qualities

needed for a Jyotishi, but he forgot to mention one quality : Jitendriya

(ie, or to use a broader concept, Brahmacharya). Vedic disciplines were

taught only to Brahmachaaris. Even married persons could be

Brahmachaaris, as Lord Krishna says in Mahabharata.

 

I am against the following statement :

 

<<<Ultimately as the progression of knowledge is taking place from

geneartion to generations,it has probably taking a tasty kichadi form

leading to increased following of jyostih and evincing interest.

>>>

 

As far as Vedic disciplines are concerned, devolution is taking place.

Even in Jyotisha, out of 18 ancient siddhantas, only Suryasiddhanta is

available in e being any understandable form and even it is not properly

understood by even those who are paid for teaching it. While ancient

texts are being lost/distorted/derided, new items are being

interpolated/added into Vedic Jyotisha in the name of " development " .

These new items can be accepted only if they are in line with the old,

which is not always the case. Moreover, only those persons are

authorised to add these things who understand the old.

 

I did not state in response to Rohini Ji's post that part of the khichdi

is sometimes due to deliberate dishonesty by some modern messiahs.

Rohini Ji used a wise language leaving room for various explanations,

while I am calling a spade a spade. 99% of explanations by many

astrologers are based on some particular aspect and do not take into

consideration a holistic approach : this lopsided method can be used to

prove whatever one wishes. Sometimes, concocted birth-time is used to

prove one's point. Hence, I had tried to base my case studies on

internationally approved rainfall data. But internet astrologers ignored

to discuss these studies.

 

Ignorance can be cured, but there is no cure to bias. I fully agree with

last statement of Krishnan Ji ( " people with wisdom and perfect

understanding made to explain what is necessary and leave to the wise

men in the next gen to eloberate and understand seems to be the

approach. " ). I am not in a hurry. I have decided to devote my time to

writing books & c and keep away from controversies on internet, esp with

those who refuse to test a thing before rejecting it.

 

Internet fora do not need an explanation of things like " why " there is

full aspect on 7thy house and other such questions. Special aspects are

exceptions, full aspect on opposite house is a general rule which is not

negated by any special rule. This general rule must be explained on the

basis of general theory of phalita jyotisha. I said that no commentator

has ever explained such things. But this explanation was known to the

ancients and has been duly preserved through oral guru-shishya

tradition. Unfortunately, such explanations are ignored by most of

modern jyotishis because they are not interested in phalita theory and

want only those things which yield quick results. I started explaineing

many such things at my website, but when I found some " astrologers " want

to finish me by means of launching a baseless abusing campaign, I

stopped posting explanations of BPHS at my website. Undeserving persons

should not get Vedic knowledge. If cannot ensure

non-abusive discourse, there is no need of any discourse at all. I had

not removed the explanation of full aspect on 7th house from my website,

but nowI am going to remove it because recent response has convinced me

that members discussing things with me have no time to look at my

website which contains the explanation of full aspect on 7th house. I am

removing myself gradually from internet, step by step. Internet

astrologers are already satisfied with what they already possess and do

not need anything from those who are perceived to be too traditionally

minded. My retirement will give Shanti to all. Om Shanti !!!

Dear Vinay_jee!

 

I am with Krishnan_DA!

 

He did say, " KICHADI " !

 

While I love this wonderful dish 'Khichadee/Khichdi' that my mother used to cook

and also one of my gujrati 'kaki' (no wonder they say that friends are merely

siblings born to other mothers!) who did cook it better and I insensitively told

that to my mother in my younger, more insensitive days! :-(

 

Ma was not 'pleased' and the moment after I said that I repented, of course!

 

BUT it was educational personally, to see, how readily my mother soon

demonstrated to me how good she was at cooking 'Bhindi-bhaji' and a few other

dishes that I would rather not bore you all with on this public forum

concentrating on JYOTISH!

 

The POINT was about NOT dwelling on challenges, defeats and what others think --

even your own child (as in my mother's case!) but then to look for your

strengths within that too exist!

 

All that personal diatribe aside, wasted on present august company, of course,

the 'h' was important and noted by me! Kichadi vs Khichadi!

 

The former has the potential of raising and giving a home for Lotuses, the

latter potentially raising very fat individuals particularly when too much

butter or ghee gets served with Khichdis!

 

Even the Khichdee Jyotish Feasts! Fat, incidentally is where Jupiter the patron

saint of Jyotish can and does go WRONG!

Dear Shri Jha,

 

 

 

You are a very learned person and after going through your web page, I was

actually amazed at the level of scholarly research you have undertaken.

 

 

 

Hence, naturally I was not comfortable about pointing out this line and

stating that I noticed it as error. I assumed that the line is correct and I

was missing something basic here. Hence I wrote to you. Thanks a lot for

replying and clarifying.

 

 

 

I am student of astrology and even now wading my way through the basic waves

on the shore of this vast ocean called Jyothisha. Hence, many things you

have stated in your web page just flew over my head like that huge bird in

the new movie Avatar.

 

 

 

Let me take the courage to ask you something which for you may be basic but

is very advanced for me.

 

 

 

1.You have mentioned suryasidhanta, and you have stated that others don’t

use it as it is cumbersome to use and hence they say it doesn’t work. Can

you tell me what is the other sidhanta that they use?

 

 

 

2.Secondly, you mentioned that most use solar use and lunar year gives

accurate results. In j/hora software, there is an option to change to lunar

year 360 days. I did this but I did not see the dasa periods changing even

by day? Can you tell me why as it looks like you have used j/hora.

 

 

 

Regards

 

 

 

Santhosh

Re: Vedic Astrology

 

 

 

 

 

 

Santhosh ji,

 

The following page

<http://jyotirvidya.

<http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha>

wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha> contained

this statement :

 

http://jyotirvidya. <http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha>

wetpaint.com/page/Vimshottari+Dasha

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 6th and 11th houses

at the same time, it is highly malefic.

 

This erroneous sentence has been revised as :

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 3rd and 6th houses

at the same time, it is highly malefic as well. "

 

You pointed at one error, for which I thank you. I wrote this line with

a particular chart in mind which I could not reveal, and the unconscious

desire to hide that name led to this typo error.

Dear Shri Jha,

 

 

 

You are a very learned person and after going through your web page, I was

 

actually amazed at the level of scholarly research you have undertaken.

 

 

 

Hence, naturally I was not comfortable about pointing out this line and

 

stating that I noticed it as error. I assumed that the line is correct and I

 

was missing something basic here. Hence I wrote to you. Thanks a lot for

 

replying and clarifying.

 

 

 

I am student of astrology and even now wading my way through the basic waves

 

on the shore of this vast ocean called Jyothisha. Hence, many things you

 

have stated in your web page just flew over my head like that huge bird in

 

the new movie Avatar.

 

 

 

Let me take the courage to ask you something which for you may be basic but

 

is very advanced for me.

 

 

 

1.You have mentioned suryasidhanta, and you have stated that others don’t

 

use it as it is cumbersome to use and hence they say it doesn’t work. Can

 

you tell me what is the other sidhanta that they use?

 

 

 

2.Secondly, you mentioned that most use solar use and lunar year gives

 

accurate results. In j/hora software, there is an option to change to lunar

 

year 360 days. I did this but I did not see the dasa periods changing even

 

by day? Can you tell me why as it looks like you have used j/hora.

 

 

 

Regards

 

 

 

Santhosh

Re: Vedic Astrology

 

 

 

Santhosh ji,

 

 

 

The following page

 

<http://jyotirvidya.

 

<http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ Vimshottari+ Dasha>

 

wetpaint.com/ page/Vimshottari +Dasha> contained

 

this statement :

 

 

 

http://jyotirvidya. <http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ Vimshottari+ Dasha>

 

wetpaint.com/ page/Vimshottari +Dasha

 

 

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

 

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 6th and 11th houses

 

at the same time, it is highly malefic.

 

 

 

This erroneous sentence has been revised as :

 

 

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

 

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 3rd and 6th houses

 

at the same time, it is highly malefic as well. "

 

 

 

You pointed at one error, for which I thank you. I wrote this line with

 

a particular chart in mind which I could not reveal, and the unconscious

 

desire to hide that name led to this typo error.

Dear Shri Jha,

 

You are a very learned person and after going through your web page, I was

 

actually amazed at the level of scholarly research you have undertaken.

 

Hence, naturally I was not comfortable about pointing out this line and

 

stating that I noticed it as error. I assumed that the line is correct and I

 

was missing something basic here. Hence I wrote to you. Thanks a lot for

 

replying and clarifying.

 

I am student of astrology and even now wading my way through the basic waves

 

on the shore of this vast ocean called Jyothisha. Hence, many things you

 

have stated in your web page just flew over my head like that huge bird in

 

the new movie Avatar.

 

Let me take the courage to ask you something which for you may be basic but

 

is very advanced for me.

 

1.You have mentioned suryasidhanta, and you have stated that others don’t

 

use it as it is cumbersome to use and hence they say it doesn’t work. Can

 

you tell me what is the other sidhanta that they use?

 

2.Secondly, you mentioned that most use solar use and lunar year gives

 

accurate results. In j/hora software, there is an option to change to lunar

 

year 360 days. I did this but I did not see the dasa periods changing even

 

by day? Can you tell me why as it looks like you have used j/hora.

 

Regards

 

Santhosh

Re: Vedic Astrology

 

Santhosh ji,

 

The following page

 

<http://jyotirvidya.

 

<http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ Vimshottari+ Dasha>

 

wetpaint.com/ page/Vimshottari +Dasha> contained

 

this statement :

 

http://jyotirvidya. <http://jyotirvidya. wetpaint. com/page/ Vimshottari+ Dasha>

 

wetpaint.com/ page/Vimshottari +Dasha

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

 

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 6th and 11th houses

 

at the same time, it is highly malefic.

 

This erroneous sentence has been revised as :

 

" if Jupiter is in moolatrikona in a particular horoscope , it is highly

 

auspicious on account of that. But if it is lord of 3rd and 6th houses

 

at the same time, it is highly malefic as well. "

 

You pointed at one error, for which I thank you. I wrote this line with

 

a particular chart in mind which I could not reveal, and the unconscious

 

desire to hide that name led to this typo error.

 

-VJ

Dada!

 

I think each new-comer should begin with BPHS! If they can't take it, they will

find other more useful pursuits!

 

Jyotish is a very difficult path and no point in starting a Kindergarten that

only creates problems for them and others, eventually!

 

 

 

TO ALL OTHERS: {And, Jyotish is not, & can never be just a HOBBY or PASTIME!

 

Take up chess, cricket or photography if you are trying to figure out what to do

with your spare time...!}

Dear Shri Rohini Ji,

Funny life this is !Funny it is a misliad track.Once I was toying with AGFA

CLICKIII.Faced an interview with a question on Hobbies.I quoted one of the hobby

mentioned by you and got a job.that helped me to beging my journey and travelled

wide apart.

BPHS certainly a thought provoking time taking material and has to be done

intensively.Not for purpose 2 join intenet band of astros and crack riddles..

Dada!

 

I think each new-comer should begin with BPHS! If they can't take it, they will

find other more useful pursuits!

 

Jyotish is a very difficult path and no point in starting a Kindergarten that

only creates problems for them and others, eventually!

 

TO ALL OTHERS: {And, Jyotish is not, & can never be just a HOBBY or PASTIME!

 

Take up chess, cricket or photography if you are trying to figure out what to do

with your spare time...!}

You just reminded me about something very personal! My two loves in life: Both

Dear Shri Jha ji,

Thanx for supplementing the info about senes.This issue i want to always bypass

and avoid as these senses make human life more complex.If God were to be kind

Huan  minus senses would have been much happier i feel.Anyway as senses have

been made vital v need also to apply anf put into forefront

Phalita, as a divine inspiration has also some dos and donts and jyotish present

day regard and it's place is due to phalita.

Phalit jyotis is extemporous and for that great knowledge and that too in

snaskritised forms will make them comfortable

In today's world v have many forms to deal with future,if some r vedic based

others r westrenised forms that suits more to inter mode.

Finally inventions and innovations arise once it is captured in media

attention.Today Jyotish is very popukar field.vedic AStrology taking new forms

can not be said as devolution.

v wish people to understand principles of jyotish and apply them carefully in

routine life.

To Vattem Krishnan Ji and others,

 

Krishnan Ji has rightly mentioned that BPHS has outlined the qualities

needed for a Jyotishi, but he forgot to mention one quality : Jitendriya

(ie, or to use a broader concept, Brahmacharya) . Vedic disciplines were

taught only to Brahmachaaris. Even married persons could be

Brahmachaaris, as Lord Krishna says in Mahabharata.

 

I am against the following statement :

 

<<<Ultimately as the progression of knowledge is taking place from

geneartion to generations, it has probably taking a tasty kichadi form

leading to increased following of jyostih and evincing interest.

>>>

 

As far as Vedic disciplines are concerned, devolution is taking place.

Even in Jyotisha, out of 18 ancient siddhantas, only Suryasiddhanta is

available in e being any understandable form and even it is not properly

understood by even those who are paid for teaching it. While ancient

texts are being lost/distorted/ derided, new items are being

interpolated/ added into Vedic Jyotisha in the name of " development " .

These new items can be accepted only if they are in line with the old,

which is not always the case. Moreover, only those persons are

authorised to add these things who understand the old.

 

I did not state in response to Rohini Ji's post that part of the khichdi

is sometimes due to deliberate dishonesty by some modern messiahs.

Rohini Ji used a wise language leaving room for various explanations,

while I am calling a spade a spade. 99% of explanations by many

astrologers are based on some particular aspect and do not take into

consideration a holistic approach : this lopsided method can be used to

prove whatever one wishes. Sometimes, concocted birth-time is used to

prove one's point. Hence, I had tried to base my case studies on

internationally approved rainfall data. But internet astrologers ignored

to discuss these studies.

 

Ignorance can be cured, but there is no cure to bias. I fully agree with

last statement of Krishnan Ji ( " people with wisdom and perfect

understanding made to explain what is necessary and leave to the wise

men in the next gen to eloberate and understand seems to be the

approach. " ). I am not in a hurry. I have decided to devote my time to

writing books & c and keep away from controversies on internet, esp with

those who refuse to test a thing before rejecting it.

 

Internet fora do not need an explanation of things like " why " there is

full aspect on 7thy house and other such questions. Special aspects are

exceptions, full aspect on opposite house is a general rule which is not

negated by any special rule. This general rule must be explained on the

basis of general theory of phalita jyotisha. I said that no commentator

has ever explained such things. But this explanation was known to the

ancients and has been duly preserved through oral guru-shishya

tradition. Unfortunately, such explanations are ignored by most of

modern jyotishis because they are not interested in phalita theory and

want only those things which yield quick results. I started explaineing

many such things at my website, but when I found some " astrologers " want

to finish me by means of launching a baseless abusing campaign, I

stopped posting explanations of BPHS at my website. Undeserving persons

should not get Vedic knowledge. If cannot ensure

non-abusive discourse, there is no need of any discourse at all. I had

not removed the explanation of full aspect on 7th house from my website,

but nowI am going to remove it because recent response has convinced me

that members discussing things with me have no time to look at my

website which contains the explanation of full aspect on 7th house. I am

removing myself gradually from internet, step by step. Internet

astrologers are already satisfied with what they already possess and do

not need anything from those who are perceived to be too traditionally

minded. My retirement will give Shanti to all. Om Shanti !!!
