Guest guest Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 OM Datta Guru Dear Ashwini, This is an interesting topic and for long i have pursued it without getting a clear cut guidance. Shri P.S.Sastri in his book 'Scientific Text Book of Astrology' gives us different sizes for each nakshatra, (If i remember well) if we follow that then the nak lordship is being changed dramatically at times Have u or anyone gone deeper in this and found some source The size of 13.19 can you kindly quote the reference for further studies Thanks Regards Sunil John Mumbai , " ashwinikumaras " <ashwinikumaras wrote: > > , " pranesh_joshi2003 " > pranesh_joshi2003@ wrote: > > > > I am looking for a reference from a classic where it is clearly stated > > that each nakshatra is of an equal size (13.33 degrees). > > > > Thanks, > > > > PJ > > > I know for two size in rashi for each nakshatras: > 1-13.20 degrees, with this size K.N.Rao is agreed. > 2-13.19 from another texts > > regards, > ashwini > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 30, 2007 Report Share Posted August 30, 2007 Hare rama krishna, dear sunil What we are concenrend is only nakshatras and one nakshatra may be take long time to pass by moon and some may be less as cosmos is oval in shape ,but 60 ghatikas(24 hours) is average ,even though 13 degree 20 min is considered for each nakshatra -which consist of a grp of stars and giving a purticular shape and promininetly some 4 or 6 nakhsatra may be viscible .But we are covering an area of 13 degree and 20 minit of cosmos tru that nakshatra mandala,so 27 nakshatras will giv 360 degress. And lord ship in considered same for each three nakshatras of 9 groups like ashwini ,makha ,moola is ketu is lord in vimshottarry scheme . The poets and epics say moon is travelling tru his wifes quatrers every day and each nakshatra is wife of moon .and rohini is favrite among them <but astronomicaly may be differrent and i am least concerned as it does not come into phala bhaga as jyothish is a predictive sceince and astronomy is a physical science . Imagine rahu and ketu ,astromicaly there is no rahu ketu ,gulika ,mandi etc as physical bodies nor viscible or feel and we r using in delinating results and crores of planets are there we take only 7 planets and 27 nakshatras in calculating the results along with 12 rasis and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth regrds sunil nair om shreem mahalaxmai namah. http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> pt.sunilnair <pt.sunilnair , " suniljohn_2002 " <suniljohn_2002 wrote: > > OM Datta Guru > Dear Ashwini, > This is an interesting topic and for long i have pursued it without > getting a clear cut guidance.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 OM Datta Guru Dear Sunil, 1) If we take astronomically vs Phalit then thats not the question here since first we need to agree if astronomically its different from 13.20 which so far to my knowledge P.S.Sastri has pointed out 2) Whether results i.e Phalit part is in tune with the astronomical points we would need to decide that next after the first point is established 3) The problem with current breed of jyotishis is hardly 1% are astronomers & then the question of good quality astronomers 4) The tatparya of what my questions were if a nakshatra is of 10 degrees instead of 13.20 degrees then if we are taking a planet in say Moola nakshatras 11 degree its actually not in Moola but in P.Asha and the results will vary drastically. > and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth 5) If we presume the nakshatras to form the Rasis then if the nakshatras are of different length then 'Obviously' the Rasis would be of different length. Lets not forget that many seasoned astrologers fail in Simple Exercise of interpreting results of a planet could this be the reason, i do not know but speaking aloud what i have posted here before in the past on this nakshatra duration.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hare ramakrishna, dear sunil. The problem of astronomy is handled by sidhnthi jyothishis who r panchanga makers and i find only differrence is time taken by moon to transverse one nakshatra ,as the area in space is fixed 13degree 20 minit and its a division of convenence not any purticular reason other than their anubhava or reserch of rishis .so some nakshatras may 58 ghatikas and some may taken 65 ghatikas moon may take as moon stithi is nakhsatra ,phala bhaga is unaffected ,only differrence is which ayanamsa u use (use correct ayanamsa and subsequent rules -if use KP use KP rules ,nadi nadi rules etc) I find the tamil panchanga gives a previous nakshatra and lahiri wallas gives a differrent nakhshatra if the time almost in end part of nakshatra and now a days the delination for each is not properly followed ,as tamil panchanga generaly used for nadi purpose also . So we r as jyothishishis concerned abt results and we cannot go by some physical scince as nakshatra is a area or mandala which is 13 degree 20 minits -so we cannot go by modern scince -as they may say to day some planet is planet and otherdays not ,do we hav any logic why rishis given swa ,moola ,ucha ,neecha kshetras ,astronomicaly what relevence ?Also for them sani may be a gaseous planet ,is it is so for us ? so phala bhaga is more what i am concerned and not astronomy . May be other jyothishis failing is their lack of knowledge in a subjuct and jyothisha is not simply understanding and digesting a subjuct ,i find best knowledgeable persons fail in other subjuct also .here jyothisha is also a scince u need guru s blessing and god s grace ,i think even if u r a doctor u need all this . Here i am following time tested and may a parampara of 15000 years experince which our gurukula tradition has . regrds sunil nair om shreem maha laxmai namah. http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> pt.sunilnair <pt.sunilnair , " suniljohn_2002 " <suniljohn_2002 wrote: > > OM Datta Guru > Dear Sunil, > > 1) If we take astronomically vs Phalit then thats not the question here > since first we need to agree if astronomically its different from > 13.20 which so far to my knowledge P.S.Sastri has pointed out > > 2) Whether results i.e Phalit part is in tune with the astronomical > points we would need to decide that next after the first point is > established > > 3) The problem with current breed of jyotishis is hardly 1% are > astronomers & then the question of good quality astronomers > > 4) The tatparya of what my questions were if a nakshatra is of 10 > degrees instead of 13.20 degrees then if we are taking a planet in say > Moola nakshatras 11 degree its actually not in Moola but in P.Asha and > the results will vary drastically. > > > and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth > > 5) If we presume the nakshatras to form the Rasis then if the > nakshatras are of different length then 'Obviously' the Rasis would be > of different length. > > Lets not forget that many seasoned astrologers fail in Simple Exercise > of interpreting results of a planet could this be the reason, i do not > know but speaking aloud what i have posted here before in the past on > this nakshatra duration. > > Kind regards > Sunil John > Mumbai > > > > > > , " sunil nair " > astro_tellerkerala@ wrote: > > > > > > Hare rama krishna, > > > > dear sunil > > > > What we are concenrend is only nakshatras and one nakshatra > may > > be take long time to pass by moon and some may be less as cosmos is > > oval in shape ,but 60 ghatikas(24 hours) is average ,even though 13 > > degree 20 min is considered for each nakshatra -which consist of a grp > > of stars and giving a purticular shape and promininetly some 4 or 6 > > nakhsatra may be viscible .But we are covering an area of 13 degree > and > > 20 minit of cosmos tru that nakshatra mandala,so 27 nakshatras will > giv > > 360 degress. > > > > And lord ship in considered same for each three nakshatras of 9 groups > > > > like ashwini ,makha ,moola is ketu is lord in vimshottarry scheme . > > > > The poets and epics say moon is travelling tru his wifes quatrers > every > > day and each nakshatra is wife of moon .and rohini is favrite among > them > > <but astronomicaly may be differrent and i am least concerned as it > does > > not come into phala bhaga as jyothish is a predictive sceince and > > astronomy is a physical science . > > > > Imagine rahu and ketu ,astromicaly there is no rahu ketu ,gulika > > ,mandi etc as physical bodies nor viscible or feel and we r using in > > delinating results and crores of planets are there we take only 7 > > planets and 27 nakshatras in calculating the results along with 12 > rasis > > and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth > > > > regrds sunil nair > > > > om shreem mahalaxmai namah. > > > > http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ > > <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> > > > > pt.sunilnair@ <pt.sunilnair@ > > > > > > > > > > , " suniljohn_2002 " > > suniljohn_2002@ wrote: > > > > > > OM Datta Guru > > > Dear Ashwini, > > > This is an interesting topic and for long i have pursued it without > > > getting a clear cut guidance.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 OM Datta Guru Dear Sunil, I think topic gets diluted if we deviate from our main point at hand by bringing in other areas of discussion unless we remain succinct in our discussion is what i have observed on lists over the years. My reply on that below :- SJ , " sunil nair " <astro_tellerkerala wrote: > > > Hare ramakrishna, > > dear sunil. > > The problem of astronomy is handled by sidhnthi jyothishis who r > panchanga makers and i find only differrence is time taken by moon to > transverse one nakshatra ,as the area in space is fixed 13degree 20 > minit and its a division of convenence not any purticular reason other > than their anubhava or reserch of rishis .so some nakshatras may 58 > ghatikas and some may taken 65 ghatikas moon may take as moon stithi is > nakhsatra ,phala bhaga is unaffected ,only differrence is which > ayanamsa u use (use correct ayanamsa and subsequent rules -if use KP use > KP rules ,nadi nadi rules etc) > SJ: My reason for writing was that i have not understood what P.S.Sastri wrote in his book, n was asking if someone can explain what he has written otherwise i know such discussions become non conclusive. i think someone wrote about a source of 13.19 as duration of a nak, i wait for that reference. Basic phalabhaga Can be from astronomy whether we add ayanamsa that becomes our way of phalabhaga, as i said only when we see the difference in phalabhaga minutely between the 2 different conditions raised in previous mail then we can come to some conclusion before that its just point of views. > I find the tamil panchanga gives a previous nakshatra and lahiri wallas > gives a differrent nakhshatra if the time almost in end part of > nakshatra and now a days the delination for each is not properly > followed ,as tamil panchanga generaly used for nadi purpose also . > SJ: I recently experimented with the Vakhya panchang , though i was very excited about it until i read a point made by B V Raman in his address to the conference of Panchangas which made me not so sure if our panchangas are calculated appropriately. But my point in my mail was not ayanamsa or panchangs as thats secondary from the point of view of discussion at hand, the first point was the nak duration in sky, ayanamsa comes much later. > So we r as jyothishishis concerned abt results and we cannot go by some > physical scince as nakshatra is a area or mandala which is 13 degree 20 > minits -so we cannot go by modern scince -as they may say to day some > planet is planet and otherdays not ,do we hav any logic why rishis given > swa ,moola ,ucha ,neecha kshetras ,astronomicaly what relevence ?Also > for them sani may be a gaseous planet ,is it is so for us ? > SJ: I am not to sure how the above discussion came into this point that we were discussing, but since we talk of rishis i always wondered why they had different views on say a particular point Ven in 12H, Sat in 7H etc etc. My explanation is observation for why Rishis thought about ucha etc since they observed that to be so. Infact if Shani is a gaseous planet thats a great info to know to predict the results of shani some learned would say. I asked this question to someone far superior than our known jyotishs and he said to me and my friend, the answer to this is to read Padma Purana and then think a lot, answer would come. My two cents if someone wants to go ahead with padma purana and understand the chapter on creation & then co-relate it to the gaseous planet or hot lava on Mars , I do not know. People do not explain full for various reasons which i respect > so phala bhaga is more what i am concerned and not astronomy . > SJ: I think the discussion was on astronomy and not phalabhaga, ofcourse i can be wrong in my assumptions > May be other jyothishis failing is their lack of knowledge in a subjuct > and jyothisha is not simply understanding and digesting a subjuct ,i > find best knowledgeable persons fail in other subjuct also .here > jyothisha is also a scince u need guru s blessing and god s grace ,i > think even if u r a doctor u need all this . > SJ: Ofcourse we all know the above & has been repeated by all. > Here i am following time tested and may a parampara of 15000 years > experince which our gurukula tradition has . > SJ: I thought Jyotish was beyond 15000 yrs. But I am not too sure of paramparas as results of what planets would give results 100 back might be different than what it is giving now. I do not know if all the shlokas given in BPHS (some 1400 or 3000 yrs back whatever one wants to date ) are working to the T in todays charts, so i feel we have an uphill task of not learning from even our modern day Rishis & still sticking to Parampara of what we know minuscule. As I repeat here i am yet to meet a parampara astrologer who would be given 100 charts to time marriage month and he being successful on 100 charts, if 50 still i would be most impressed. best wishes SJ > regrds sunil nair > > om shreem maha laxmai namah. > > http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ > <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> > > pt.sunilnair <pt.sunilnair > > , " suniljohn_2002 " > suniljohn_2002@ wrote: > > > > OM Datta Guru > > Dear Sunil, > > > > 1) If we take astronomically vs Phalit then thats not the question > here > > since first we need to agree if astronomically its different from > > 13.20 which so far to my knowledge P.S.Sastri has pointed out > > > > 2) Whether results i.e Phalit part is in tune with the astronomical > > points we would need to decide that next after the first point is > > established > > > > 3) The problem with current breed of jyotishis is hardly 1% are > > astronomers & then the question of good quality astronomers > > > > 4) The tatparya of what my questions were if a nakshatra is of 10 > > degrees instead of 13.20 degrees then if we are taking a planet in say > > Moola nakshatras 11 degree its actually not in Moola but in P.Asha and > > the results will vary drastically. > > > > > and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth > > > > 5) If we presume the nakshatras to form the Rasis then if the > > nakshatras are of different length then 'Obviously' the Rasis would be > > of different length. > > > > Lets not forget that many seasoned astrologers fail in Simple Exercise > > of interpreting results of a planet could this be the reason, i do not > > know but speaking aloud what i have posted here before in the past on > > this nakshatra duration. > > > > Kind regards > > Sunil John > > Mumbai > > > > > > > > > > > > , " sunil nair " > > astro_tellerkerala@ wrote: > > > > > > > > > Hare rama krishna, > > > > > > dear sunil > > > > > > What we are concenrend is only nakshatras and one nakshatra > > may > > > be take long time to pass by moon and some may be less as cosmos is > > > oval in shape ,but 60 ghatikas(24 hours) is average ,even though 13 > > > degree 20 min is considered for each nakshatra -which consist of a > grp > > > of stars and giving a purticular shape and promininetly some 4 or 6 > > > nakhsatra may be viscible .But we are covering an area of 13 degree > > and > > > 20 minit of cosmos tru that nakshatra mandala,so 27 nakshatras will > > giv > > > 360 degress. > > > > > > And lord ship in considered same for each three nakshatras of 9 > groups > > > > > > like ashwini ,makha ,moola is ketu is lord in vimshottarry scheme .. > > > > > > The poets and epics say moon is travelling tru his wifes quatrers > > every > > > day and each nakshatra is wife of moon .and rohini is favrite among > > them > > > <but astronomicaly may be differrent and i am least concerned as it > > does > > > not come into phala bhaga as jyothish is a predictive sceince and > > > astronomy is a physical science . > > > > > > Imagine rahu and ketu ,astromicaly there is no rahu ketu ,gulika > > > ,mandi etc as physical bodies nor viscible or feel and we r using in > > > delinating results and crores of planets are there we take only 7 > > > planets and 27 nakshatras in calculating the results along with 12 > > rasis > > > and i even heard astronomicaly rasi may be differrent in lenghth > > > > > > regrds sunil nair > > > > > > om shreem mahalaxmai namah. > > > > > > http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ > > > <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> > > > > > > pt.sunilnair@ <pt.sunilnair@ > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > , " suniljohn_2002 " > > > suniljohn_2002@ wrote: > > > > > > > > OM Datta Guru > > > > Dear Ashwini, > > > > This is an interesting topic and for long i have pursued it > without > > > > getting a clear cut guidance.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hare ramakrishna, dear sunil , No body is diluting the topic .Naksatra is an area in this oval shaped brhma anda so its a chapa dairghya degree ,not begining or end of any physical thing > More than this how i can explain it .The moon movement in that purticular mathematical area is nakshatra and rishis called in nakshatra (its an area only ) Now tell me were i am missing and i dont know why u r so purticular abt astronomical accuracy as rishis called some nakshatra as males ,Now shud we wait nasa to approve it?

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Om Datta Guru Dear Sunil, 1) I think we all know that oval shaped brhmanda is no beginging no end > More than this how i can explain it .The moon movement in that > purticular mathematical area is nakshatra and rishis called in nakshatra > (its an area only ) 2) I am confused on the moons movement part that u explain, without moon also other areas where other planets are there there is a nakshatra > Now tell me were i am missing and i dont know why u r so purticular > abt astronomical accuracy as rishis called some nakshatra as males ,Now > shud we wait nasa to approve it? Or do we use our anubhava. 3) The male or female part is the behavior and thats used in phalit not in astronomy, my question was related to astronomy I repeat twice now, if u are calling the astronomical part as male then u must ask NASA its common sense i think, what i meant by diluting the topic was this part only of wanting to ask NASA if a nak is male or female ) thats not discussion but provocation as some may interpret. This thread looks dead and waste of time unless u or someone can discuss or rather is capable of discussing what P.S.Sastri wrote in his book Textbook of Scientific astrology as i could not understand what he was talking. best SJ , " sunil nair " <astro_tellerkerala wrote: > > > Hare ramakrishna, > > dear sunil , > > No body is diluting the topic .Naksatra is an area in this oval shaped > brhma anda so its a chapa dairghya degree ,not begining or end of any > physical thing > > > More than this how i can explain it .The moon movement in that > purticular mathematical area is nakshatra and rishis called in nakshatra > (its an area only ) > > Now tell me were i am missing and i dont know why u r so purticular > abt astronomical accuracy as rishis called some nakshatra as males ,Now > shud we wait nasa to approve it?

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hare ramakrishna, dear sunil . Moon in purticular area is called nakshatra and other planets also has to hav sit in some nakshatra area and its is used in phala jyothish ,nadi and evem Kp goes further divide sub lords and sub lords which is also in nadis . So moon movement in a purticular area called moola is called moola nakshatra and if some born in that purticular day while moon transversing is known take birth in moola janma nakshatra ,and ruler of its named as ketu and his begining dasa will be calculated as ketu mahadasa There no confusion here ,its a mathematical area I dont know what P S sastry says and his book and i must say so long as i am concerned abt this very basics ,even if any one come out with any more confusing theorey ,i dont need to take it as astrology is anubhava and anumana and phalm as its only a predictive science . Now u say i am going away from sub juct Think abt yogini where the details we use other than vimshottary dasa and y its a dasa of 36 years . so when i use it i must use it as it is ,otherwise i can always ask why d-9 for marriage and d-7 for kids like this where as in rasi we see 7th house for marriage and 5th house for kids,Many of reasoning may be lost or still hidden in oral traditions and no amount books can supplement it .. I used NASA means so many signification cannot explained by NASA and why u r so purticular abt this only .Some context some nakshatras are ugra some teekshna like this ,each using at purticular time of usage and occassions. Because of oval ness of universe moon may take more time or less time but mathematicaly atleast for bharatheeya astrologers one nakshatra is 13 degree and 20 minits ,nothing less .nothing more . Only abhijit nakhsatra is calculated differrent way( again not a part of vimshottarry dasa scheme) Now i almost explain abt this ,but dont ask me why P S SASTRI write it as first of all i dont hav that book abd secondly i am not interested to read it and confuse my mind which happened in earlier period my jyothisha profession and if he himself cannot prove by his one book then how u expect me to prove in some mails . if u like it,pls study it, apply it and come out with ur experince were we are ready to accept any new theoreys . Here atleast i am not running away from any discussions ,and if i mistake i dont hav any problems in admitting it .But what i dont like is we need approval from NASA and some authorities for a theorey which last 15000 years indians were using where as they started their lesson from indian astronomy . Atleast we hav recordical proofs much before their many theoreys . hope i am not objucting u and u will understand my strictness towards the subjuct which is primary concern than our frndship regrds sunil nair om shreem mahalaxmai namah. http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> pt.sunilnair <pt.sunilnair , " suniljohn_2002 " <suniljohn_2002 wrote: > > Om Datta Guru > Dear Sunil, > > 1) I think we all know that oval shaped brhmanda is no beginging no end > > > More than this how i can explain it .The moon movement in that > > purticular mathematical area is nakshatra and rishis called in > nakshatra > > (its an area only ) > > 2) I am confused on the moons movement part that u explain, without moon > also other areas where other planets are there there is a nakshatra > > > > Now tell me were i am missing and i dont know why u r so purticular > > abt astronomical accuracy as rishis called some nakshatra as males > ,Now > > shud we wait nasa to approve it?

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Dear Pranesh, 13.20 Degrees x 27 = 360 degrees 13.33 Degrees x 27 = 365 .51 degrees Please use scientific Calculator to calculate above. But when you mention 13.33 degrees it would numerologically be wrong. Though .33 means 1/3rd of any whole Degree which equals to 20 minutes. When you mention 13.33 degrees it has to be read as 33 minutes,which is wrong, or else one should be very clear as to what he means by .33 Anyway, before any Shastric refrence ios presented, the other side must also be presented which says, that the Nakshatras are not of equal length. anyway we are here for healthy discussions therefore, must mention that the Jyotish Shastra, as mentioned in the Rigveda , consists of 52 verses, which if one understands , would be able to get the clear picture of the Nakshatras and other important aspects of astronomy as related to astrology. regards, Bhaskar. , " pranesh_joshi2003 " <pranesh_joshi2003 wrote: > > I am looking for a reference from a classic where it is clearly stated > that each nakshatra is of an equal size (13.33 degrees). > > Thanks, > > PJ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 OM Datta Guru Hi Sunil, Long mail so i read few lines and am responding to it. Pls forgive What I meant by the meaning of the word succinct is sticking to the point of discussion at hand & not getting into diverse topics like Yogini, NASA etc etc but then i can be wrong also > I dont know what P S sastry says and his book and i must say so long as > i am concerned abt this very basics ,even if any one come out with any > more confusing theorey ,i dont need to take it as astrology is anubhava > and anumana and phalm as its only a predictive science . > Now i almost explain abt this ,but dont ask me why P S SASTRI write it > as first of all i dont hav that book abd secondly i am not interested to > read it and confuse my mind which happened in earlier period my > jyothisha profession and if he himself cannot prove by his one book then > how u expect me to prove in some mails . SJ: P S Sastri was a far superior astrologer than anyone on this forum, maybe one can refer to what KNRao had to say about him in this very forum which does not mean everything what Sastri said was true or should be accepted. Nobody is asking anybody to accept, what i was asking if someone can explain what he wrote as i could not grasp his english which is not his limitation but mine and i accepted that and hence asked the concerned member if he can explain i would be most happy to understand then decide what he wrote is correct or wrong as per my understanding. If one has not read that book nor is willing to read it or anything with an open mind, i can only say humbly be my guest but what use is in jumping on a thread where that question was the base question.If one cant answer it then why divert with long lectures is what i always think while replying on threads. Members of this forum did not start astrology yesterday morning so i avoid basics that is already repeated 1000s of times in all books. > Think abt yogini where the details we use other than vimshottary dasa > and y its a dasa of 36 years . SJ: Most use yogini dasa of 36 yrs then the question of whether the events will be repeated every 36 yrs, V.P.Goel from KNRao school answers that in his book with a new research which no software gives unfortunately, i wonder which Rishi sanctioned that research. If one says that oral tradition is the only thing then why bring Rishis into discussion model when tradition can give different calculations than books written by Rishis, then question did Rishis write everything in their books, did they survive. Then in Yogini dasa there is another tradition very few know which Late Wing Commander Singh learnt it from a Sanyasi of UttarKashi where the dasa yrs changes in every chart. He didnt teach it as he did not find a competent student But again now i am thinking why did yogini dasa come into this discussion of nakshatra length or did we dilute the topic > Because of oval ness of universe moon may take more time or less time > but mathematicaly atleast for bharatheeya astrologers one nakshatra is > 13 degree and 20 minits ,nothing less .nothing more . SJ: That nothing less nothing more exists in what Sastri said (maybe) if we try to understand what he said, before we read we cant comment or rather before we read and understand it. Bharateeya jyotishis says many things one just needs to travel over india and meet rare good quality jyotishis to find out that some of them use nak lordship of a nak much different to what we internet or city astrologers use. Without that experience everything is bharateeya jyotish. On this Different nak lordship and even different pada lordship (than what we know) one Mr. Shandalya from Nagpur has written in 1970s astrological magazine of B V Raman, once on this article of Shandalya i had interacted with ex-member of this list Chandrashekhar Sharma if he knew about him as he was from Nagpur too. > > Here atleast i am not running away from any discussions ,and if i > mistake i dont hav any problems in admitting it .But what i dont like is > we need approval from NASA and some authorities for a theorey which last > 15000 years indians were using where as they started their lesson from > indian astronomy . SJ: Here is my concern with current breed of indians (am indian too lol) and that is we tend to think after spending few yrs in jyotish that we know everything what our sages said, what they did 15000 yrs ago, what technique they used 15000 yrs ago. We tend to display superiority complex & ego. Alas we do not know head or tail of the most fantastic predictive thing in Jyotish which is Bhrigu Jyotish, not a single thing on it that is worthy enough has come out. The dasas and transits in it are so different then we will question how is Sage Bhrigu following a different transit than what we are following. Ok Bhrighu is long back lets come recent, lets take Varahamihira the transit system he used is codefied in a verse in Brhat Jataka and a member that once Pradeep or Sriram here mentioned discussed it in this list, thank God people did not notice then we will think that Varahamihira was mad, the question we must think is when Mihira or Kalyan Varma said Mer aspecting Sun how is that possible what Transit rotation they are using is it the normal transit they are referring. (one of these days i will write on Bhrigu Jyotish & predicting name) I prefer running away from discussions which are useless and time consuming as in that time i can spend time reading on jyotish. > if u like it,pls study it, apply it and come out with ur experince were > we are ready to accept any new theoreys . SJ: This is not for u Sunil, speaking in general i for one do not believe that new theories & researches should be shared very openly, i use the word very since i feel most jyotishis today are Grandfathers of Parasara, no one wants to learn, everyone wants to teach & become Gurus unfortunately. Its better to do ones research quietly test it on hundreds of charts over years and share to one person who is a true seeker. its more satisfying than sharing it with 'We know everything Men' > hope i am not objucting u and u will understand my strictness towards > the subjuct which is primary concern than our frndship > SJ:Ofcourse our friendship is never effected, i do not mind anyones strictness provided that person has an open mind, i always asked those hardcore Talibanists of Jyotish, how did KNRao have the guts to go against the sages and do his research e.g the MB degrees research, the Chara Dasha research, why did KNR not be strict in his approach of the fundamentals that Rishis had written, at the end i think who was wiser the KNRs or the Talibanists of Jyotish, who did greater work the ones who stuck behind the frocks weaved out of books we do not understand or the KNR who went beyond the books and created a path for us.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Dear Ahwiniji, I am not having this book quoted by you people, so would not know what Prof PS Sastriji meant. But he must be talking about the time of commencement of Yuga. The vedanga Jyotish followed double Nakshatra system, that is one Nakshatra for ayanamsha, and one for the commencement of the Yuga. Anyway that type of discussion is not easy for us mortals, so I would stay away from it but 13.20 gives us the proper results, so would not think of any new development. regards, Bhaskar. , " ashwinikumaras " <ashwinikumaras wrote: > PJ > > > > > > > I know for two size in rashi for each nakshatras: > > > 1-13.20 degrees, with this size K.N.Rao is agreed. > > > 2-13.19 from another texts > > > > > > regards, > > > ashwini > > > > > , " suniljohn_2002 " > <suniljohn_2002@> wrote: > > > > OM Datta Guru > > Dear Ashwini, > > This is an interesting topic and for long i have pursued it without > > getting a clear cut guidance.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 SO WHAT HAS BEEN UNDERSTOOD NOW ? 13.20 or 13.33 are 2 figures which mean the same thing,if the reader knows what measure they are expressed in ? ..20 if taken as minutes is right. ..33 if taken as degree measure also means same thing. (Here the writer must mention that .33 is a part of 1 Degree if degree is concerned as 1 ). Conclusion - To avoid unnecessary interpretations, it is always better to mention 13.20 degrees.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hare rama krishna, dear sunil . I do hav open mind to learn ,but the problem is quality of books availbale in market and problem of contamination of subjuct by various people ,and i don think i can or any can clean this mess . Yes in india various 108 systems were using and same system each school of thought may be using in differrent way . What i told is -i am not worried abt moons atmospherical climate or whether its oxygen or hydregen in moon .what i am concerned is its significations recommended by rishis ,it applied to all discussions whether nakshatra or anything . I heard lot abt that man is using differerently and this man is using differrently .intead of we also trumpetting it ,did we asked him to try it on 100 charts we may provide . As far as K N rao or his team is concerned they put their theoreys in frnt of all astrological communities or a lot of highly educated creamy reserch students and lacs are testing the result of his resrch and no vedic rishi will complaint abt it . And he is never adament that u shud use this way only . As as talibanism in jyothish concerned --now many are superflous in knowlwdge and always propound new theorey ,same questions being asked by many pro and anti ppl of each system .For eg -lal kitab ( again using example is not running away from subjuct ) i ask then straight away u prove me on 100 charts and i will blve ,y i waist my valuable time on some thing unless proved or i should feel its rite .Who in the world can see and certify all systems . Brigu reading is superior and we r egerly waiting for your reserch as u know i also doing some reserch in nadis . And i find each may approach a subjuct with differrent methds and each methods instead of contradicting its leading to same results . But what i mentioned is we r not seeing the physical properites of a planet or nakshatra or any name mentioned in astronomy we r concerned the predictiv part means how its giving result in actual life . Before some months sani is in leo according to astronomy but in cancer according vedanga jyothish and all our prashna is also showing the result of sani in cancer only so the prathyakhsa anybhavam is my guru ,were as many who argue who does not go tru this fire like this in real life like a professional astrologers like me can say anything ..That is the point were my talibanism starts and cannot support any new theoreys as so long as one gives result why i shud worry abt it . And tomorrow many may argue that in space crores of planet is there and we should include each every thing instead of 7 planets (rahu and ketu ,gulika are simply mathematical points ) so what can i say ? Atleast i can say our 5 lacs astro writers only a hand few has good prediction skills and so u know y i rejected some one . One famous writer and astologer says abt aroodha lagna in dustan ( jaimini astrology)and its results in his books and according to any calculations i cannot find aroodha lagna in dustana --a very famous one --do i need to study it also?If ask this forum to vote he will get 100% vote and i will hav to accept popular verdict as in demo-crazy. regrds sunil nair . om shreem mahalaxmai namah/ http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/ <http://www.indiamart.com/Vedic Astrology/> pt.sunilnair <pt.sunilnair , " suniljohn_2002 " <suniljohn_2002 wrote: > > OM Datta Guru > > Hi Sunil, > Long mail so i read few lines and am responding to it.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Sirs, While crossing a physical space of a nakshatra the moon moves 13 ansh 20 kalaa or 13 degrees 20 minute and can be written as 13:20'. Using a decimal point could be misleading because 13.20 degrees would mean 13 degrees and 12 minute; using 13.33 degrees would be closer to truth.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Sir, Whenever we read the Longitude of a Planet it is expressed as under. For instance Moon in 08.30.02 It means 8 Degrees 30 minutes and 2 seconds. What you say would be misleading. For instance 13.20.00 should read as 13 degrees 20 minutes and zero seconds. While if we accept your way of reading., where You mean to say 13.33.00 is the right way, then why dont you multiply the same into 27 nakshatras and see the result ? Boss, if anyone knows to calculate the chart manually, here,then he would know that 13.20.00 is the right way, because 13.33.00 would mean 13 degrees 33minutes and zero seconds which is not the normal parlance of expressing the degrees of longitude in any planet in any software,or any where. So unnecessary just to prove one self as right we cannot remove the normal parlance of expressions of the longitudes of the planets. The use of decimal point is understood to differentiate between the Degrees, minutes, and the seconds, for the common astrologers too,forget the experts. Do You mean that the softwares which use decimal points to give the degrees of the planets at Birth mean ,Not The Kalas but the percentage of the kalas ? It is understood that they are minutes. So just do not prolong this useless discussion without any weight in the argument.. regards, Bhaskar. , " rpsingh2710 " <rpsingh2710 wrote: > > Sirs, > > While crossing a physical space of a nakshatra the moon moves 13 > ansh 20 kalaa or 13 degrees 20 minute and can be written as 13:20'. > > Using a decimal point could be misleading because 13.20 degrees > would mean 13 degrees and 12 minute; using 13.33 degrees would be > closer to truth. > > With regards > > RP Singh > > > > > > , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish@> > wrote: > > > > SO WHAT HAS BEEN UNDERSTOOD NOW ? > > > > 13.20 or 13.33 are 2 figures which mean the > > same thing,if the reader knows what measure > > they are expressed in ? > > > > .20 if taken as minutes is right. > > .33 if taken as degree measure also means same thing. > > (Here the writer must mention that .33 is a part > > of 1 Degree if degree is concerned as 1 ). > > Conclusion - To avoid unnecessary interpretations, it > > is always better to mention 13.20 degrees. > > > > Bhaskar. > > > > > > > > > > > > , " Bhaskar " <bhaskar_jyotish@> > > wrote: > > > > > > Dear Pranesh, > > > > > > 13.20 Degrees x 27 = 360 degrees > > > 13.33 Degrees x 27 = 365 .51 degrees > > > Please use scientific Calculator to calculate above. > > > > > > But when you mention 13.33 degrees it would > > > numerologically be wrong.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Hare RamKrishna, Dear Sunilji, But we never write the Degrees as 13 Degrees 20 kalas and 10 vikalas. We write as 13.20.10 It is understood as degrees,Minutes and seconds. Decimal does not always mean " a part of " spoecially in case of astrology, it is understood what comes after decimal. Same way Have you ever read in any book, 13.20 written as 13.33 ? because in above it is understood with reference to astrology that 13 means degrees, and 20 means minutes. Can we accept 13 degrees and 33 minutes ? Is it possible ? These people are here just to flaunt their ignorance and create confusions. They know nothing about astrology nor the mathematics part. and confusing others and wasting time. I understood this long back, that is why I entered long after the thread had been opened.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 Sirs, No offence meant but this sounds very humorous to me. We all know ( Or are supposed to know)that 1 Degree is equal to 60 minutes. If using 33 minutes sounds closer to truth when you express the part of " 20 " , then what should we write when we express 1 degree in Minutes ? Should 99 minutes sound closer to truth ? To express 1 degree ? Where is the Logic and utter commonsense I cannot understand.This is really infuriating.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2007 Report Share Posted August 31, 2007 To express 13.20 degrees if we write 13.33 which as per your admmission is closer to truth , then how do we express 13.40 degrees ? As 13.66 ? Is this possible ? When 60 minutes equals to 1 degree ? Have none of you ever made a chart manually ? Or ever calculated longitude manually ? Or always relied and remained handicapped with the computer as a wheelchair to move forward ? I am not even sure if you are able to understand what I am trying to say in simple mathematics above. because if you do not know that 60 minutes converts to 1 degree, then God help. In above case as soon as you express 13.40 degrees as 13.66, the degree changes to 14.06 . have you ever heard this absurdity or seen this ? Please tell me how should I express 13 degrees 59 kalas, and 59 Vikalas, in your newly developed theory of writing 13.20 Degrees as 13.33 .

You would do well to understand the difference between convention and correctness. 13.33 cannot be as wrong as you're making it out to be just because some astrologers rightly or wrongly follow the convention of writing 13-33 as 13.33. I would rather write 13-20 or 13.33 but not 13.33 to mean 13-20. PJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please see my other post. 13.66 is 14.06 only to those who see convention and nothing else. > Please tell me how should I express 13 degrees > 59 kalas, and 59 Vikalas, in your newly developed > theory of writing 13.20 Degrees as 13.33 . " Newly developed theory " ?? I don't know what a kala or vikala is but if they're divisible in a degree, my engineering education tells me that they can definitely be reduced to the fraction of a degree perfectly easily, and correctly. Here's yet another example of a subject being totally steered off-focus by something else PJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
