Sarini vs Computer software

[Guest guest]

Respected Vinay ji,

 

Sarinis too have a tremendous value. Small time pundits in the

villages and small towns still use the sarinis to work out the

lagna. For a few more decades to come they might still be using the

sarinis. Therefore the usefulness of the sarini has always been

there, and is likely to be there for many years to come.

 

But these pundits make sure that the panchang they are buying

carries a sarini calculated on the coordinates of a city from their

area. By doing this they eliminate a possibility of any gross

mistake.

 

Secondly these pundits are simply superb with mathematics of

astrology. Even if they do not have a sarini they will calculate the

Lagna through 'Palabha' and 'velantar' method given in Grah Laghav

the most revered book of astrology ganit.

 

Yes for people like us who are computer savy it is always better to

use a good astrology software. The best available for free download

is the Jagannath Hora. Their latest version is 7.2. There is no

other software which is as comprehensive as JH.

 

With regards,

 

Chandra Prakash
