stonehearted Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 Gary, I think Syamasundar is a member because of his practice of astrology. I don't think that necessarily means that Hrishikesha agrees with all of Syamasundar's social views. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 To be truthful Hrisikesh has no idea what Shyamsundars views are - not a clue. Shyamsundara is a member of the PGA because he is a bona fide and expert PGA (Planetary Gem Advisor) able to correctly choose gems accoding to the laws of Vedic Jyotish. This means he follows all the 6 rules or Codes of the PGA, including a PROHABITION against recommending gems for planets which are harmful (Pratikul) in one's horoscope. U may find it interesting to know that the Planetary Gemology World is basically divided into two (2) opposing philosophies, viz., Anukul-vad v/s Pratikul-vad: ANUKULA-VAD: A gem will act "SAME" as it's planet (So gems should be chosen for Anukul-grahas) PRATIKUL-VAD: A gem will act "OPPOSITE" of it's planet (So gems should be chosen for Pratikul-grahas) The PGA is an association in which Hrisikesh is a co-founder member, but only a member. Prabhupada disciple Hansavatar Das is the Acting Secretary of the PGA being the most qualified PG or Planetary Gemologist, i.e., a person who is BOTH a certified gemologist AND a qualified astrologer who can choose gems. There are only 5 PG's in the whole world. To contact the PGA visit http://p-g-a.org OM TAT SAT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
