Saurapaksha grahas- Where are their locations?

[Guest guest]

Dear Bhaskarji,

 

Do you really agree with Vinayji regarding separate Saurapaksha locations for the grahas?

Dear Bhaskarji,

 

Jyotish shastra includes both astronomy and astrology. From the name of our group I understand that we can have some discussions on astronomy also alongside astrology. The question on this thread is more interesting from the astronomy part of Jyotisha. If the astronauts landed in the other Moon then we should try to get Moon-landing data, which may not be sensitive and non-disclosable. NASA will have data on the distance as well as of the speed of the space rocket and the travel time etc. Thus it will be a real opportunity to verify the the claims of some people that there are two locations for each graha, ie. one the physical and the other non-physical. However one question will remain as to how a physical space vehicle can land in the non-physical Moon. Any guess?

 

Regards,

Dear Friends,Being a Life member of ISCKON for last 30 years or so, Srila Prabhupada is like one of the other Gurus for me, who was my first Teacher of Krishna consciousness, and any comment about him which is not in good taste, or him being shown in not a good light, or in relation to amusement, or his writings being misinterpreted in any manner and the meanings twisted,or he being quoted without supporting evidences of references, would call for an explanation from me.Thanks,Bhaskar., "Bhaskar" <bhaskar_jyotish@ ...> wrote:>> > Namaste John,> > I have asked many Vaishnavas and they do not know where Srila Prabhupada has said this.

In the vedic texts, the Moon was estimated to be more distant from Earth than the Sun. I believe this information has a direct bearing to assessing the nature of the imaginary planets.> > > > 3.

But anyone who studies the vedic texts should be familiar with the distances of the planets based on numbers written on the texts. As such, determining the longitudes and latitudes of the various planets in imaginary terms may be affected.> > > > 4. > Instead of talking derogatorily on Indians and their Great men, is it not better to talk about Jyotish in a Jyotish Group ?> > > > You misunderstand my point.

My primary objective is research of the ancient texts as it relates to jyotish and overall philosophy in life. You once again misinterpreted my intentions as you often do among members of the
