Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 BTW: I was NOT the person who advised my Guru Maharaj, Swami Prabhupada, to wear a blue sapphire. And I am not the person who supplied him with a blue sapphire ring. Furthermore there is the question of which house his Saturn is placed?? This is because that in spite of his stating his birth time to be " 4 PM on September 1, 1896 in Calcutta, India, " which gives Capricorn Lagna, still, some disciple astrologers think HDG was mistaken and MUST have been born at 3:30 PM making his lagna (the required) Sagg, and moving 3 planets from 8th house to 9th house. This is birthtime issue. Any comments from all you experts out there on the birth time and correct chart of Swami Prabhupada based on these two times? REF. http://www.agt-gems.com/Book/dedication.html In any case, Wearing blue sapphire was BAD for him to do. But I am not the guilty SOB who told him to use sapphire. That honor goes to an astrologer in Delhi named Pt. Ojas, who may or may not still be alive. Best wishes, Richard sacred-objects , " Richard Shaw-Brown " <rsbj66 wrote: > > Yes.
