Points to Ponder

[Guest guest]

Ayanamsa:

---------

* Chitra paksha ayanamsa is based on the assumption that the point

180 deg. away from Chitra star is 0 deg Aries. Lahari considered AD.

285 as zero Ayanamsa year, and derived his ayanamsa based on that.

Chitra star moved a bit and modern calculations gives the position of

Chitra star more accuratly.

* Result: Now we have 2 ayanamsa's for Lahari system!!

1) Based on Chitra star (180 deg opposite to Chitra star)

2) Based on AD. 285 (given in all ephemeris)

Is it not better to call this popular ayanamsa as AD.285 Ayanamsa,

rather than Chitrapaksha ayanamsa, as it is no longer based on Chitra

star? To be true, it is neither based on Chitra star nor on any

sidhantic reference.

(Arguments based on data provided by chadrahari)

 

Naga and Sarpa

--------------

Naga = " Na gamayati iti naga " (The one that does not move is Naga)

It might be used by naga cults as the synonym for SIVA

Sarpa = " Seryathe iti sarpa " (The one with wave like movement is

called sarpa)

It might be used by naga cults as the synonym for Saktri.

 

Siva = Purusha = Naga

Sakti = Prakriti = Sarpa

 

[Just a passing thought, but I have more supporting literary evidence

and arguments ]

 

Lesson from life

----------------

* It is better to do things you like even it does not fulfill your

needs. But the circumstances won't allow you to do it. A compromise

results! The individual and the world both are at loss, since the

persons energy is spend on less fruitful pursuits for the time being!

* Spirituality demands, observing ourselves, and becoming less

volnerable to daily conditioning. No wonder it is very difficult to be

really spiritual!!

* Sleep (Night) -> Awakened (Day) -> Meditative (Sun/Enlightened)

 

Devine : Really humane! (Is it not absurd?!) Thought and emotion

becoming one and the same with consciousness. Soft emotions such as

love and compaction becomes strong. Learned to stop and start the

thinking. Learned to control the mechanical. Master of Machine

(mechanical), Emotional (Animal), and Man (Thinking)!! What kind of

stupid beast is this which goes against the evolution theory and goes

for all the soft but deep qualities and is willing to fail?! Fittest,

who is ready to fail! Does he subtly survive?! Or is it not?! Who

knows!! The only thing I know is that is that it is the most absurd

beast! Beware of him!!! It is very difficult to understand this kind

and we should better shouldn't try to validate them!! Who knows what

they are?! Better to keep away from speaking about spirituality as

well !
