Point for discussion

[Guest guest]

Respected members of the forum,

Namaskar,

First of all I welcome to all new members who joined our forum for

vibrant discussion on astrology. They can find the direction of

discussion in this forum from msg no. 1 or file " Astrology a science

or myth " along with SOA_______ files in file section, other msgs.

 

More than ten months have passed since formation of this forum. So

many members have taken part and exchanged their valuable views. But

the contents of most of the msgs are not in proper direction, and

fulfilling the aim of the forum, whereas content of some msgs are

outstanding and worth preserving.

 

This aim of the forum is to analyze present status of astrology with

a view to find as to whether it is vedic, scientific as is claimed

and advertised by the astrologers not only in various forums but also

through media, book, magazine etc..

 

If it is vedic then members have to refer some reasons as to why it

is vedic. Because some members (specially Sh Kaul ji) has written so

much against this view hence supporter of Vedic astrology must come

forward from their silence and specially new members with new

thoughts.

 

If it is science then members have to support his stand as to how it

is science. For this we must know as to how every predictive

principle was formulated and is their any need to modify these

principles or every learner astrologer may continue with his whim and

devise some principles for his own use, without any substance. When

every system is quite against with another system.

 

Indians have deep rooted faith on sages and their wisdom but perhaps

1% members have ever studied any scripture except some magazine and

visiting some astrologer with their own stories as to how their

predictions came true.

 

Faith without study is blind faith. So with due regards to our sages

and their knowledge (because it is our heritage, hence we can neither

deny it nor disregard it), we have to find out as to how sign was

devised, what was the basic knowledge of our sages at the time of

formulating these principles and probable time, what sort of

procedure was adopted for formulating basic principles like sign,

sign lord, aspect, friendship, exalted, Vinshottary dasha, Rahu ketu

etc. So that basic principles may be modified if required and this

can only be done only after knowing the procedure and only then we

can workout any mistake in procedure, data etc.

 

I will like to request amateur and sincere members, who are just

interested in astrology or just studying it as a hobby to take active

part in discussion otherwise they are going to loose a good

opportunity to know the baseless foundation of the astrology and they

may take some wrong decision on the basis of horoscope, which may

affect their life. Do not wait for some other members to ask or

question the issue. In that case you will never learn any thing. Do

not hesitate for any views because this forum is not screening your

views before allowing your msg. You can use your language. Do not

hesitate with your language because it is not a forum to analyze your

language. Until unless you will ask your point, your mind will not be

clear about any thing. Remember every question is a gateway of

knowledge. We are not asking you to change your mind-set or business

but at least you or I can improve your / our knowledge by proper

exchange of views. Remember next generation is not going to follow

blind-faith. So try to pass on the correct knowledge to next

generation.

 

ut if they really want to use the opportunity of the forum then they

must come out with their stand on above points or any previous points

of any msg. I will also like to have the opinion of learner

astrologers, who have to lead the future society.

 

After hearing from the members on above starting points or any other

point of their liking may be raised and we will systematically

analyze and exchange the views on the point and slowly move to other

points.

 

In last I will like to request members that please be within the

frame of analyzing any principle instead of throwing some useless

msgs, sentences, filthy language etc. which has nothing to do with

the point of discussion. At least we can write properly because forum

is meant for exchange of views and not for settling personal score.

So that every msg has some concrete material instead of useless

content by way of wastage of time in writing and reading. Try to

support your point logically, scientifically but not as a blind faith

or as your mind set. Try to distinguish mind set and knowledge.

 

Members can as usual invite their friends in the forum, take opinion

on any point from other forums and share their views on my email too.

Hope to have vibrant and useful discussion in coming days.

 

thanks

 

Yours truly,

Sanat
