[Jagannath] Prashna

[Guest guest]

OM KRISHNA GURU OM

Dear Narasimha,

Jagannatha Swami Nayana Pathagami Bhava Tu Me.

Let us try to use our intelligence to find the answer to that. The

classics also teach that a Prasna that is not genuine should not be

answered. Now, what is a genuine Prasna? It is the time when a querist were

to make the prasna to a qualified Jyotish. Thus, the querist is writing or

saying something with a specific Jyotish in mind. If this is not so, then

the Prasna is not considered correctly made. There maybe others also sitting

in the room when the prasna was made, yet the time when the specific Jyotish

takes it up will be the correct time.

Om Tat Sat

Best Wishes

Sanjay Rath
