Thumb rules on debilitation & retrograde and SJC methodology

[Guest guest]

Has any statistical study been done to validate that concept that is

attributed to Sanjay ji?

 

I know one chart that has a debilated benefic (Guru) in dusthana

(12th) and it has proven to be a curse for the native. The V dasa of

Guru was the WORST in terms of all matters associated with Guru and

in matters of the houses that Guru lords in the native's horoscope.

 

I dont have permission of the native to put her horoscope online or

discuss the issues. Moreover, I am yet to find one chart that proves

the theory mentioned. The only chart I found disproves the theory. I

know that one chart doesnt constitute any statistical merit, but I

would like to know whether any statistical study has been done on

such thumb rules.

 

I have respect for Sanjay ji, but all astrological theories and

thumb rules need to be subjected to reasonable statistical test and

must be accepted if and only if they work on majority of cases.

 

Some might argue for validity of thumbrules based on some assumed

theoretical reasoning (based on what they assume to be the reason

why a planet is retrograde or debilitated in someone's char), but

what use is theoretical reasoning if such thumb rules fails

miserably in practise?

 

I know it is taboo to discuss about other astrologers. However, I

admire some astrological schools (esp. Sri. K. N. Rao) for

periodically testing validity of thumb rules on hundreds of random

horoscopes and publishing the results. I wish SJC methodology

involves more statistical analysis rather than relying fully on

theoretical logic, which may not be correct at all times. SJC

 

We all know SJC under Jyotish gurus such as Sri. Sanjay, Sri. PVR,

etc., does tremendous work in spread of jyotish, but it is my

opinion that not all of its principles are fully tested and

validated before it is taught to hundreds of students.

 

If people want to call jyotish a science, then such rules of jyotish

must be subjectable to statistical and probablistic tests.

 

Please understand that this is just my humble opinion.
