Guest guest Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Respected Sirs, There has been such a lot of debate on the accuracy of the lagna Sarini that out of curiosity I wanted to verify myself whether the sarini is accurate or not. I picked up a date for each week and selected a Rasi to verify whether the rising and the ending times match. The longitude selected has to be 82E30 because the Sarini is said to be based on what was then known as Madras time and is now known as Indian Standard Time [ IST ]. The latitude selected was 26 North. Those who want to verify this sarini can select a latitude of their own. The longitude has to be the same that I have selected because it has been already fixed in terms of Madras time or IST. I used the most advanced Jyotish software known as Jagannath Hora version 7.2. Here are my findings : January 1: Kark : the rising time shown in the Sarini = 5:58pm ; the ending time shown = 8:20pm Result > At 5:58pm it is mithun at 26d01. The Kark has not risen yet as shown in the sarini. Instead the Kark rises at 6:17pm, a difference of 19 minutes Similarly it does not set at 8:20pm instead it sets at 8:33:30pm, a difference of over 13 minutes. January 7 : Brishabh : Rising time shown in the Sarini 1:23pm ; the setting time : 3:17pm Result > At 1:23pm the lagna is at 24Ar30. The Brishabh has not risen yet as shown in the Sarini. It rises at 1:40:30pm , a difference of 17 minutes. Similarly the Brishabh doesn’t set at 3:17pm and instead sets at 3:36:30pm, a difference of 19 minutes. January 15 Sinh : The rising time shown in the Sarini 7:21pm ; the setting time 9:43pm Result > At 7:21pm the lagna is at 25ca56. The Sinh has not risen yet as shown in the Sarini. It rises at 7:36:30pm instead, a difference of 15 minutes. Similarly it doesn’t set at 9:43pm and instead sets at 9:54:45pm, a difference of 11 minutes. January 21 Meen : The rising time shown in the Sarini is 9:32am; setting time shown 10:53am Result > At 9:32am the lagna is 26Aq35. The meen hasn’t risen yet as shown in the Sarini. Meen rises at 9:42am instead, a difference of 10 minutes. Similarly it doesn’t set at 10:53am. It sets at 11:8:30am, a difference of 15 minutes. January 28 Mithun : The rising time shown in the sarini is 1:53pm, the setting time shown 4:7pm Result > At 1:53pm the Lagna is 24Ta26. The Mithun has not risen yet, it rises at 2:13:30pm instead, a difference of 19 minutes Similarly it Mithun does not set at 4:7 pm as shown in the sarini , it sets at 4:29:15pm, a difference of 22 minutes Therefore, I believe that the Sarini does not give the real value of the Lagna degrees. Any body who thinks that the sarini gives accurate results should come up with an exercise like I have done so that we could also verify his claim. A claim to its accuracy can not be accepted unless a similar verification is made public. With respect Girish Raheja Get the freedom to save as many mails as you wish. Click here to know how.

Guest guest Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 Respected Raheja ji, Thank you very much for having devoted your time on this exercise. I also did yet another exercise for the same dates and the same rising signs which you have picked up. I have changed two parameters for my verification.I have examined the same on the following parameters: [ a ] Longitude 82E30 for earstwhile Madras time now known IST [ b ] Latitude 13N04 for Madras, assuming that if the time is of Madras then logically the latitude should also be selected that of Madras.[ changed parameter] [ c ] Ayanansh at 23 degrees assuming that the sarini might have been calculated at that Ayanansh.The current Ayanansh is 23d58m02s.[ changed parameter], [ d ] Using two softwares, Junior Jyotish and Jagannath Hora [version 3] My results are : January 1, 2007 Sarini shows cancer rising at 5:58pm. With the above parameters at that time the Lagna is 21Ge35. The cancer is not due till 6:34:45pm January 7, 2007 Sarini shows Taurus rising at 1:23pm. At that time with above parameters the lagna is at 20Ar30. The Taurus is not due till 1:58:15pm. January 15, 2007 sarini shows Leo rising at 7:21pm. At that time with the above parameters the lagna is 23Cn14. Leo is not due till 7:49:15pm January 21,2007 Sarini shows Pisces rising at 9:32am. At that time with above parameters the lagna is 28Aq43. The Pisces is not due till 9:37:30pm January 28, 2007 Sarini shows Gemini rising at 1:53pm. At that time with above parameters the Lagna is at 19Ta24. The Gemini is not due till 2:37:15pm I also agree with your findings that the sarini does not give accurate lagna degrees. Therefore as a Jyotish tool it can not be used in the contemporary context.
