Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Om Gurave Namah--------------------------Dear Manoj, I have been off this list for sometime now. Just read a mail that quoted you saying that what is being taught at SJVC is not traditional Jyotish. A long time back K N Rao and I were together in another list called Majordomo. At tha time the goravani list did not even exist... way back in 1996 I think. A western astrologer asked a very simple question "Why do Mars, jupiter and saturn & Rahu alone have special aspects. Why not the others?" K N Rao could not answer this. I gave innumerable hints and everyone in the list was still unable to get to this. Then I had to give the answer. Since I was a new person and this was his teaching forum, i left. Besides, I was an admirer of Dr Raman and till date preserve that magazine on which I had requested his blessings. It is dated 14.6.1996. If you still do not know the answer to this, then it is high time to consider bowing to Lord Jagannath Mahaprabhu and read the book Narayana dasa for yourself. If after reading this you find that there is something wrong, then I am prepared to answer your queries. My request is not to go by hear-say and to read the book yourself. Recently Ronnie Dreyer was plesantly surprised to learn that I used a 365 day year. She was under the impression that I used 360 days as was talked about by narasimha. People should not assume that what some of my students maybe experimenting with is my teaching. That is not fair. I give freedom so that they can try and see the truth themselves instead of throttling them down to swallow my tale. Lagnamsaka alone is mentioned along with Padanadhamsa Dasa. you will find ample examples of this also in my book. You are well aware of the differences we have about seven and eight Karaka and as usual, you are politically more active whereas I spend my time in teaching and writing..so, the results are obvious. Your group is at all the active forums where decisions on Jyotish are being made, yet this little fellow from a little town in a little state of Orissa has his say..just as Jyotish was accepted as an ART's subject and NOT as a science subject. Do you know why? I surrender everything to Jagannatha mahaprabhu and let Him decide. Whereever I have given anything from the teachings which is not there in any published text, I have humbly told that this is what I was taught and have not ARROGATED this as Original research!!!

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Hello Sanjay, I would appreciate it if you listed your current opinions about the following since you mentioned one: --------------------------- Dasha days per year you use: 365 (already mentioned) Ayanamsa: Chart diagram style: Lunar Parallax: Nodal aspects: Hora Varga system: Mean/True Nodes: Outer Planets: Glyph symbology: Bhava Equal or Sripati: Jaimini Karakas: 8 (already stated) Lords by Sign or Bhava: --------------------------- Notes: Hora Varga: Some people think the simple Sun/Moon approach is wrong, they have another approach, which I cannot describe to you. Glyph symbology: Not real important, do you use letters, numbers, what? for signs and planets. Lords: By signs means the lord of the 9th sign is in the 9th house, etc., this is very typical, the Bhava approach is the lord of the sign where the Madhya lay is in which Bhava by equal or Sripati...this is a "pure bhava" approach. -- Das Goravani 2852 Willamette St # 353 Eugene OR USA 97405 or Fax: 541-343-0344 "Goravani Jyotish" Vedic/Hindu Astrology Software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Dear Sanjay I am glad you are back on the list because you are certainly knowledgeable .On the jyotish list(formerly majordomo) K.N.Rao gives frequent predictions around world events so I am hoping that you also will make predictions to demonstrate that your superior knowledge actually results in greater predictive accuracy . Yours in the jyotish vidya Nicholas , I have been off this list for sometime now. Just read a mail that quoted you saying that what is being taught at SJVC is not traditional Jyotish.

Guest guest Posted October 16, 2001 Report Share Posted October 16, 2001 Dear Sanjay, As always you are welcome back. Because atleast your presence on the list gives rise to serious discussions about astrology, otherwise majority of time is spent on discussing the good and bad aspects of various techniques advocated by different people. >I have been off this list for sometime now.

My request is not to go >by hear-say and to read the book yourself. > I would rather not answer this. Because, I detest the wrong principles advocated by astrologers but I dont detest the astrologers advocating them. So in a way, it is like hating the pen but not the hand holding the pen. You can ask any of my students in Delhi and they will give you this answer. (and you know many of them). >Recently Ronnie Dreyer was plesantly surprised to learn that I used a 365 >day year.

Do >you know why? I surrender everything to Jagannatha mahaprabhu and let Him >decide. > Excellent. But did I at any stage said that Sanjay Rath is not a knowledgeable person. NO. And you know it very well that I adopt whatever is good but leave out what does not satisfy my tests. And 8 Karakas have repeatedly failed my tests. So I dont use them. Y'day too, Purshottam mentioned about different texts containing Narayana Dasha. I simply said, "great, so use it". People thought I am being arrogant. But thats the way I do things. It simply meant that if you find it useful, go ahead and use and discover for yourself. I cannot ever hold anyone back from using anything one wants, neither can you. You and me can only demonstrate the principles. And if you want to drag me into a debate between your and Shri K.N. Rao, Sorry, I am not getting into it. For me, Shri K.N. Rao is my astrological Guru and Sanjay Rath is a friend. >Whereever I have given anything from the teachings which is not there in >any published text, I have humbly told that this is what I was taught and >have not ARROGATED this as Original research!!! > This is your personal feeling. No one should comment on that. "Kaal" is the best judge of people and their deeds. So lets leave it to HIM. with best wishes and regards, Take care, But do keep writing (even if it is in this tone) Manoj _______________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
