Guest guest Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 || Sri Ramajayam || Respected Mr. Bharat, I totally agree with what you have said in the appended mail. If Mr.Mohan Jyotishi can give us 3 instances of where astrology has failed, there are so many instances (in this group as well) where astrology has been successful and effective in warding off dangers by giving proper remedial steps/actions. The great Varaha Mihira (who was quoted by Mr Jyotishi in one of his mails) was able to very accurately predict the death of Vikramaditya's son. Like this, there are so many places where astrology has been successful. My belief is every action/result depends on free will and predestiny. Astrology gives us an indication of the predestiny. There is always a free will which ultimately determines the result; astrology is a science which makes us aware of the predestiny and teaches us how to exercise our free will to achieve success in all endeavours. As per the popular sloka "Phalani graha charane...", astrology gives us only an indication of what is expected to happen; who else but the creator, can say with certainty, what will happen!! So that is the very spirit of Vedic Hindu Astrology which needs to be borne in mind before reading or giving predictions. There is an unavoidable uncertainty in any science/profession and astrology is no exception. As you have mentioned in your mail, at times doctors make wrong judgements and that doesn't mean practise of medicine should be condemned. So I do not think people should bring the science to disrepute just on the basis of a few cases where it has failed. Regards, Vijayanand. --------------------- Namaskaar Sri Mohan "If someone calls himself a Vedic Hindu and knows the Vedas actually, he would certainly not to predictive astrology since there are no Rasis in the Vedas nor in the Vedanga Jyotisha or Atharva Jyotihs nor Paitamaha sidhanta or Paulisha or Romaka Sidhanta either! If in spite of such facts some one insists to call himself or herself a "Vedic astrologer" it means that he/she does not know even ABC of the Vedas!" Your facts and fictions are limited by so many assumptions that it is simply futile to discuss anything with you. Again, who are you to pass a judgment whether or not someone has understanding of the Veda or not? Are you the dwaarpal of what is Vedic and what is not. I certainly can't discuss matters with people who "think from their knees". 1. Dr. B. V. Raman, supposed to be the "Greatest Vedic astrologer of the Twentieth century" had planned astrolo8ically to deliver a lecture on "Astrology as an aid to Medical Sciences" at Hyderabad on January 2, 1999. However, he passed away on December 20, 1998, fourteen days prior to delivering the "astroligically planned lecture". By making this statment you have proven that you know nothing about astrology or about the man or about both. 2. Kunji Lal, the by-now-famous Jyotishis of Betul had planned astrologically to shed of his mortal coil on October 18, 2005, and it had been "okayed" by a doyen among "Vedic astrolgers" viz. Mr. K. N. Rao! All that happened was that it gained some more bad publicity for the already infamous "Vedic astrology". Good for your "cause"! 3.Poor BJP had preponed last General Elections by several months on the "sane advice" of "Minsters of Vedic astrology". The result was that it had to vaccate the seats of power before time, thanks to "Vedic astrology" and "Vedic astrologers". Oh! So they would have won, if Sh Mohan Jyotishi would have been consulted. Three instances, which we have no proof of being true or false, have been given to prove that the entire gambit of Vedic Astrology is false. As per your absolutely useless logic, all doctors should be banned from practising medicine : 1. As some make wrong judgments which seldom results in death. 2. As some advise to others that many a times causes more complications 3. They cannot save themselves from death!! Prabhu, if I discuss anything further with you, I would be foolish. Thanks and Regards Bharat ________ Enjoy this Diwali with Y! India Click here http://in.promos./fabmall/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
