Proofs that Mesha etc. rashis were imported into India!

[Guest guest]

Shri

Gopal Goelji,

Namaskar!

<You

seem to be more buried   WHO HAD AUTHORED BPHS.>

There

is a lot of plagiarism about jyotisha books!  For example, there is “Ravana

Samhita†in Delhi Public Library, opposite Old Delhi Railway Station. It is in

Reference Section.  It is the same " world famous " Ravana Samhita,

published by a publisher of Delhi, priced at a whopping amount of Rs. 3000.00. 

Pl. take time out and have a look at the same!  The very first few pages of

that work will tell you the real state of " Ravana Samhita " in the

words of none other than " Maha Pandit Ravana " himself!

Poor

" Ravana " laments that it is publishers who make " him " write

such " Samhitas " galore, to mint money by making a fool of the common

man!  He is candid enough to admit that he has not “written†any such Samhita!

Same

" Maha Pandit Ravana " also pities the general public who fall in the

trap of Brighu Samhita!  According to “Maha Pandit Ravana†himself,  if Ravana

was a " creature " of about eight hundred thousand years back, Brighu

Rishi is a Rishi of early Satya Yuga---millions of years back!  " Maha

Pandit Ravana " laments further that people have become so

" blind " and " senseless " that they fall hook line and sinker

for such concoctions!

He

also pities the general public for not having read the Valmiki Ramayana etc.,

since if they had done so, they would have known it for themselves that

" Maha Pandit Ravana " never claimed that he had any knowledge of

astrology, leave alone writing a " Ravana Samhita " .  In fact, he never

claimed that he had any belief in it either!

Same

is the case with your " darling " Brihat Parashari!  The half a dozen

editions available these days are concoctions of around eighteenth century!  If

you see the preface of the earlier editions of the original Parasharis of

Nirnaya Sagara Press, Mumbai, or Master Khelari Lal and Sons, Varanasi, you

will come to know the real truth and that is that the " compilers "

have “collected†(read “manufacturedâ€!) different portions of those “Parasharisâ€

from different sources, and there is absolutely no guarantee that any of those

portions was ever written by the real Parasahara! 

For

that matter, just as we do not find any indication in the Valmiki Ramayana that

" Maha Pandit Ravana " has written any Ravana Samhita, there is no

indication that Maharshi Parashara has written anything about phalita

jyotisha!  Parasharis galore appear to the be works of some scheming jyotishis,

who, impressed with the astronomical knowledge of " Parashara " (which

that " Parashara " has actually borrowed from Maya the mleccha of the

Surya Sidhanta!), ascribed works of predictive gimmicks to Parashara Rishi!

If

you go through the Archaeoastronomy papers of Dr. R. N. Iyengar, you will see

for yourself that as late as 14th century BCE, there were no Mesha etc. Rashis

in the Parashara Sidhanta by a 14th century BCE Parashara!  So how

could the Parashara of more than 5000 years back talk of Mangal, Shanik etc.

planets in Mesha, Vrisha etc. Rashis is anybody’s guess!

But

then phalita jyotishis, enveloped as they are by Tamoguni budhi, close their

eyes to such works, lest they lose their clients or even have some pricks of

conscience!

<Your 

only aim is introduce Tropical calender.>

You

are absolutely wrong!

I

am just trying to introduce,  actually reintroduce, the real Vedic calendar,

which is without any Mesha, Vrisha etc. Rashis!  As such, the question of

Tropical or sidereal calendar does not arise, since such curses are applicable

to Mesha etc. rashis only, and that also because of Hindu jyotishis, who call

themselves “Vedic astrologersâ€!

<YOU

HAVE TOTALLY WRONG IMPRESSION THAT IN VADIC DAYS OUR SAGES  WERE CALLING  THE

DAY OF WINTER SOLSTICE AS TROPICAL MAKAR SANKRANTI.>

How

did you get the impression that my impression is that during the Vedic days,

the real Vamadevas talked (leave alone celebrated!) a so called Makar Sankranti---leave

alone a so called nirayana or sayana ?  For God's sake, my dear Goel Sahib, pl.

do not make such statements as exhibit your lack of doing any homework at all! 

Pl. go through 1999b.pdf and Rashi5.pdf papers and then enter into a

discussion!

 

<kindly

DO NOT DESTROY OUR SIDEREAL CALENDER WHICH IS IN USE  FOR MORE THAN  2000

YEARS.>

You

are again caught on the wrong foot yourself!  You have no knowledge of the

sidhantas nor of the Puranas, nor have your read historical documents like

Alberuni's India etc.

Can

you quote even a single shloka from any Purana or Sidhanta which has not said

that Makar Sankranti is the shortest day of the year and Mesha Sankranti the

day of Vernal Equinox and so on?  No, you cannot!  All you will do is to defend

Parasharis galore just because they are the bibles of " Vedic

astrologers " .

Even

otherwise, it is clear from your statements that you are just repeating the

words of some of your mentor jyotishis of jyotisha forums, without having any

idea yourself as to what a so called sidereal or a Tropical calendar means!

If

we take your statement, for the sake of argument, that the so called sidereal

calendar is being used over the last two thousand years, that itself means that

it is a post Maya the mlechha development in India!  What about the

pre-sidhantic era then?  As per your own words, it means that there was a so

called Tropical calendar in India then!

<I

WILL PRAY TO GOD THAT YOU MAY NOT SUCCEED IN THIS.>

Succeed

in what?  The Vedic calendar is neither so called Tropical nor so called

sidereal!  As such, your " prayers " are just like the prayers of

" Vedic astrologers " to remove a non-existent Kala Sarpa Dosha!

With

regards,

A

K Kaul

days.â€Â>

Maharshi Parashara has not said anywhere " Tropical " or

" Sidereal " Mesha or Libra etc.! These words are recent

" innovations " and as suchy, your additions, and hence cannot be

accepted!

>

It proves beyond all the reasonable doubts that the Rashichakra in the Puranas

is nothing but so called Tropical and will remain so for ever as per those

Puranas. It will never by so called nirayana! That is what Alberuni had

confirmed that in eleventh century India, Mesha Sankranti was the day of Vernal

Equinox!

>

Similarly, as per the Bhagavata, Shiva-Mahapurana etc. etc., Makar Sankranti is

another name of Winter Solctice (Uttarayana) the shortest day of the year, and

Vaishakaha/Mesha Sankranti another name of Vernal Equinox when the days and

nights are equal. According to these puranas and the sidhantas prevailing in

India, there are no conditions that after somet time, the Mesha Sankranti will

take place at any other day when the day is not equal to night nor is there any

conidtion that Makar Sankranti is any other day than the shortest day of the

year! Pl. see 1999b.pdf and rashi5.pdf.

>

It is also clear by implication that if Maharshi Parashara has written any so

called Brihat Parashari, which you claim to have been studying for the last

more than fifteen years, it should have been on the basis of a so called Sayana

Rashichakra! It appears that even after studying it assiduously for more than

fifteen years you have not understood that simple fact yet, that there cannot

be any Parashari on the basis of Lahiri or Ramana or Muladhara etc. ayanamsha!

>

All those " parasharis " will then be " Lahiri Parasharis " or

" Ramana Parasharis " or " Muladhara Parasharis " etc. The

Nirnaya Sagar Press edition of Parashari may, as such, be called as Ganesha

Daivajya Parashari, since that edition wants us to subtract an Ayanamsha at the

rate of one arc-minute from Shaka 4444----exactly what Grahalaghava has

advocated!

>

So three cheers for non-existent Nirayana Rashis and non-existet nirayana

Parasharis galore!

>

BTW, that does not mean that the so called Sayana Rashichakra exists really,

but all it means is that the Puranas and sidhantas have advocated a so called

Sayana Rashichakra- ---just in the footsteps of Maya the mlechhan's Surya

Sidhanta.

(Vasant), the day of the Vernal Equinox occurs. Whenever the Sun is placed on

interval of six tropical months between tropical Aries and tropical Libra. Day
