Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dear Members, There is a growing trend of Astrology moving to the Internet - whether it is for teaching/learning (like this group) or offering services (like my site Astrolife.com). There are services available on the cell phone too. I have also seen many people suggesting that the best way to prove astrology is by doing 'blind predictions'. Is this a valid statement? Is it right to make predictions without knowing the Identify of the Native? What is your opinion about this, specifically pertaining to the DKP principle of knowing the place, time and identify of the Jataka before making any prediction. Where did this principle originate? Is there any reference to this in BPHS or other knowledge sources? This issue is going to be lot more important in the coming years, especially in India due to the growing penetration of Internet and cellphones. We also need to deal with what exactly do we mean by DKP. regards, raj rao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dear member, Desh, Kaal and Patra is a basis principle of astrology. Though I am unable to quote the classical book, but it is very important for astrologers. According to me Desh means the culture under which the native is brought up and prevailing environment of the society such as in wester culture 3rd or 4th marriage gets settled, but in Hindu culture 2nd marriage is not encouraged. In Western culture physical sexual contact is not given any importance, but in Hindu culture it is not appreciated and so on. Kaala means the age of the native. What can be predicted for the infant, we can not predict for the young native or old native. What can be said of for the poor native can not be said of a wealthy native, such as the wealthy native may suffer loss of crore of rupee, but a poor native will suffer loss of only a few hundreds. The first round of Saturn's transit give different results and 2nd round give different results and 3rd round may bring death also. So Kaala is important. Paatra is also important such as educated and uneducated, rich and poor, healthy and disable etc. So one should see the deasha, Kaala and Paatra before giving prediction. --- indiadirector <raj wrote: > Dear Members, > There is a growing trend of Astrology moving to the > Internet - whether > it is for teaching/learning (like this group) or > offering services > (like my site Astrolife.com).

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dear Sir, Blind Charts - Depends on the intention. 1) May be used for challenging an innocent astrologer. 2) May be used for challenging an over-intelligent astrologer, who may be asked to prove his theory on the Blind chart. 3) Purely for the academic purposes. What should be the probable action on those who have been challenged. 1) Should not accept the challenge-as per Shastras. 2) Challenge should be accepted, and theory proved. 3) Challenge should be accepted and enjoyed by all. regards, Bhaskar. , " indiadirector " <raj wrote: > > Dear Members, > There is a growing trend of Astrology moving to the Internet - whether > it is for teaching/learning (like this group) or offering services > (like my site Astrolife.com).

Guest guest Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 Dear Sir, // I have also seen many people suggesting that the best way to prove astrology is by doing 'blind predictions'. Is this a valid statement? // Depends on the platform , one is situated. If in an ashram,or in todays relevance a clasroom of jyotish, then the Blind Chart given by the Guru to his shishyas-students, would be a real learning excersise, and also a tool for assessment of the students progress for the guru. here it is good In other cases, it may or may not be proper. If a native is not confident, then the astrologer may have to resort to this, to prove himself or the Jyotish science. In certain places it may only be a resort for one to check about his own family members charts or get free readings, or push up his accomplices or bring down his opponents in a unfair game of Blind Chart. here it may not be proper to read the Blind Chart. It is like a Knife. In surgeons hands, it is good, For a person cutting a birthday cake, its good, but in a childs hand and a psychopaths hand, it may be dangerous. // Is it right to make predictions without knowing the Identify of the > Native? > > What is your opinion about this, specifically pertaining to the DKP > principle of knowing the place, time and identify of the Jataka before > making any prediction. // Normally it is not proper to make predictions before taking stock of the birth details and particulars. regards, Bhaskar. , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish wrote: > > > Dear Sir, > > Blind Charts - > > Depends on the intention. > > 1) May be used for challenging an innocent astrologer. > 2) May be used for challenging an over-intelligent > astrologer, who may be asked to prove his theory > on the Blind chart. > 3) Purely for the academic purposes. > > What should be the probable action > on those who have been challenged. > > 1) Should not accept the challenge-as per Shastras. > 2) Challenge should be accepted, and theory proved. > 3) Challenge should be accepted and enjoyed by all. > > regards, > Bhaskar. > > > > , " indiadirector " <raj@> wrote: > > > > Dear Members, > > There is a growing trend of Astrology moving to the Internet - whether > > it is for teaching/learning (like this group) or offering services > > (like my site Astrolife.com).
