dear jyothirved,

i think i was one like you a month ago.

but today i realised the importance of veda in astrology.

actually i was a boy who kept on saying astrology is not having an

indian origin.

but then one Mr.Naveen of this group helped me to completely

understand the meaning of astrology on vedas. i learnt vedas just to

know wether there is any astrological point in it.but i couldnt find

anything. later i posted the same in our group then Mr.Naveen and

some of tamilnadu astronomers association members cleared me.

actually,there are two kinds of astrology.

* positional astrology

* predictive astrology

positional astrology is what was followed by aryabhatta and other

great indian astronomers.It was also present in vedas.like some

articles like natchatra sukhtam and navagraha sukhtam(i learnt only

these 2 astronomical articles in 5 yrs)

but the other part, predictive astrology is what is being in

the " lead " today.

predictive astrologers are using a technique that does not have any

proof.

they first expirience an worldly activity like war,love,etc. they

mark the positions of stars and planets on that day.then they say it

repeats again if the heavens follow the same config. but this is

never true.

in one of the carl sagan's episode,he says that two astrologers

predict two different activities for the same zodiac.

[Astronomy_Activities_2009] " Vedic astrology " -- the

greatest fraud on the Vedas!

 

Dear friends of Astronomy_Activitie s,

 

I am thankful to Dr. Rathnashree for inviting me to join this group

and here

is my first post to this forum.

 

The following speech was delivered at Rotary Club, West Delhi, in

September

2006. Since astronomy and astrology are said to be inter-related, it

will

give you all the information as to how " scientific " and " Vedic " the

so

called Vedic astrology is!

 

Regards,

 

AKK
