I am sorry that you find what I wrote " illogical " .

 

As I said originally, we are deviating from astrology. I made my

point and you made yours. There is no need to brand what we don't

understand or appreciate as " illogical " . Let us end this topic

now. Let us get back to astrology.

Sanjay, regarding your Brahma Vidya post: Traditionally the 60

years in Saturn-Jupiter cycle are taken to be aligned with the

lunar years. I was born 2 days before the lunar new year day in

1970 (i.e. towards the end of year Saumya). Are you talking about

the same years?

 

Are yugas and yugantaras aligned with these lunar years or with

Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions? The date of start of Kali Yuga given

traditionally happens to be a lunar new year day.

 

Why are these years - which are aligned with lunar years - said

to be based on Sani-Guru cycle? I can basically understand it,

but Saturn-Jupiter motion is not really regular and

Saturn-Jupiter conjunctions and Jupiter's motion in various rasis

are not exactly aligned with lunar years. Please throw more light

on this important topic.

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
