Dear Narasimha,

This is the gesture of the truly realized one. May Brihaspati shower

his blessings upon you.

Om Namo Bhagavate Satyadevaaya

Namaste friends,

 

A lot of people are using the free

lite version of "Jagannatha Hora" software written by me. We have also

been selling the full version of the software commercially.

 

I am aware that a lot of serious

astrology students, whose studies and researches could benefit from

having the full version, cannot afford to buy the software, even though

it is one of the cheapest around.

 

My purpose in writing this software

was not to make money. I personally do not want a single cent from

Jyotish. However, we decided to charge money so as to not hurt other

software vendors, cover expenses like the ephemeris cost and also raise

some money that can be used as emergency backup for important research

and teaching activities.

 

I now have the blessings and

encouragement of Sanjay ji and other well-wishers to do what my heart

tells me to do. Today is the auspicious day of Magha Pournima. I just

finished my monthly Satya Narayana Vratam. This is a special day. It

has been exactly 54 lunar months since I started doing Satya Narayana

Vratam every month (54 is half of 108). On this auspicious occasion, I

am pleased to announce that "Jagannatha Hora" full version will

henceforth be free!

 

We are grateful to those who

supported us and bought the full version of the software until now. The

money they spent on the software was used for expenses like buying the

ephemeris and the remaining money is planned to be used only as an

emergency backup for our teaching, research and writing activities. I

do not plan to use any of that money for private purposes.

 

In my humble opinion, "Jagannatha

Hora" is a niche software with stress on calculations and calculation

options and not on presentation and aesthetics. I intentionally left

"Jagannatha Hora" wanting in some areas like aesthetics and

professional presentation, so that it does not really compete with

other commercial programs. We certainly do not want to hurt Jyotish

software vendors, who rendered and are rendering great service to the

Jyotish community. I believe that professional practitioners will still

continue to need other software programs, while researchers and

students can take advantage of my free software.

 

I can put links to the webpages of

other Jyotish software vendors on my free software download page. Those

who visit my website for downloading the software will be requested to

visit those pages if they want something more professional. If you are

a Jyotish software vendor and are interested in having a link to your

site on my download page, please do send me the address of your site. I

will add a link at the earliest opportunity. I don't expect you to

reciprocate this, though you are welcome to.

 

* * *

 

There are two versions available for

downloading. One version is 3.5 MB in size. It contains an accurate

ephemeris for 1800-2400 AD and uses an approximate planetary model for

other years. It does not have the full international atlas. It has a

brief version of the help.

 

The other version available for

downloading is 4.7 MB in size. It contains more detailed online help

and Indian fonts to display charts in Indian languages.

 

The complete version containing an

accurate ephemeris for 5400 BC-5400 AD and an atlas containing half

million US cities and 2 million international cities is 56 MB in size

and I cannot make it available for downloading. My website cannot

handle that kind of bandwidth. So we will have to mail it in CDs. As

buying CDs, burning them and mailing them costs us money, we will

request you to make a voluntary donation to cover our costs. We will

mail you the CD and please donate some money within your abilities. You

can find other details on my website.

 

Please go to http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/jh

and get further details. Those who bought the full version 5.0 or 6.0

can upgrade to 7.0 at http://www.VedicAstrologer.org/jhup

(if you only have the lite version, upgrade will not work and you will

need a fresh installation).

 

Those in India will be able to get

the CDs from SJC, New Delhi at a very cheap price that, as per my

understanding, just covers the expenses.

 

With this version, I give everybody

the permission to re-distribute this software, provided the original

copyright notices are retained and the operation is not commercialized.

You can make copies of the CD and dsitribute them to Jyotishis in your

country without removing the original copyright notice and by

restricting the money you charge to what it costs you to make and

distribute the CD (i.e. no profiteering).

 

Sanjay ji informed me that copies of

this CD may be included with "Jyotish Digest" magazine and given to its

rs in the coming months.

 

I certainly hope that every

astrology student and researcher gets a copy of this free software!

Then my purpose in writing this software would have been served.

 

* * *

 

In this version, I have added the

option to exclude nodal lordship in arudha pada calculation. I have

also added two options to exclude the exceptions in bhava and graha

arudha pada calculations. Chara dasa as per Sri KN Rao's teachings is

also available.

 

Though this software is from the

"Sri Jagannath Centre" stable, I will remain respectful to savants and

scholars who disagree with our views and will try to help their

followers too.

If there are other options you like to see in the software to follow

your favorite teachers, please do ask me. If and when I get time, I

will add the options.

 

* * *

 

In the long run, I am thinking of

making this an open source community project. I will open the source

code to everyone, so that other software engineers can add features

they like to the software and use them. However, there is no timeframe

for it right now. There are many details that I need to clearly plan

before I take that step. I have a very busy professional and personal

life. As and when I get time, I will plan various details and implement

this vision. But, I expect it to happen in the next 3-4 years. For now,

the source code is not available, but the software program is available

for free and enjoy it!

 

* * *

 

I am a Jyotish student and

researcher and my goal is to encourage other students and researchers

to find Truth. I and Sri Jagannath Centre are committed to helping

Jyotish researchers in their pursuit of Truth, without any selfish

motivations.

 

What we request you in return is

your good will and blessings. The value of blessings of fellow human

beings is so under-rated in today's world, in comparison to the value

of money! But it is the blessings of elders and well-wishers that gives

me the energy to do all that I get to do. Thank you all for your kind

blessings! Please continue to shower your blessings on me and SJC!

 

May Jupiter's light shine on us,

Narasimha
