Guest guest Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 Drear Muhammad, Namaste. Maharishis Parashara, Bhrigu and Jaimini were authoring around the beginning of Kali yuga, i.e. more than 5000 years ago. This is because in Dwapoara yuga there was no need to write down the codes. The shishya would learn it from his Guru through hearing. The rest are more recent, beginning from the times of the Greeks.

Guest guest Posted March 14, 2003 Report Share Posted March 14, 2003 Om Gurave namah Dear Imran, Does any body really know the answer? In this list you have found various articles that are very authoritative and vehement about the timing of the Mahabharata or the Ramayana. The Mahabharata war is a vital timing for the period of Vyasa and from there we can estimate the period of Parasara, which would be the time the Rig Veda was recorded as Parasara is among the important seers to whom the Veda was revealed. Unlike others, I have quietly kept on reading and analysing and thinking about the correct chart for Krishna and the dating of the war. If we take the presently accepted principle, then the Kali Yuga started in 3102 BC. Krishna's sojourn on planet earth would be about 125 years before this date, say 3227 BC. Thus the period of the recording of the BPHS would be about this time. This is the most logical view based on accepted dates today. Another thing, the BPHS which you read today WAS NOT WRITTEN by Parasara. This was written by Sri Ojha. The sanskrit used by Parasara in the Rig Veda is very different from tat used in the BPHS which seems to be of more recent origin. Shri Ojha painstakingly went from house to house where the Pandits held individual portions as "family treasure and secrets". These portions were purportedly received by their ancestor as dowry from the head priest of Nepal. At least this was compiled and arranged together based on 'available manuscripts' by Sri Ojha (whom the world has forgotten). The rest you can easily understand being a reasonable & intelligent person. We have a herculean task ahead and all we do is waste precious time. I have certain proposals which shall be presented in the forthcoming SJC West coast conference in the hope that we unite our efforts in this search for the truth.

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2003 Report Share Posted March 15, 2003 Namaste, Your this message increased my limited knowledge alot. You discussed that Sri Ojha is amongst modern man who firstly colleced and compiled the scattered work of Parashara, and reformed it into comprehensiveable Sanskrit. Would you please inform when Sri Ojha did this great task? and was there any one else who performed the same task with anyother jyotish classic. One more thing, Sanjay jee, I have heard about Jyotish Digest many times on this group. Is it a online magazine or on paper published monthly? and How can I get this mag?
