Ayanamsha Can't be Removed fron Vedic Astrology!

[Guest guest]

To All,

 

Mr Prashant Pandey, who owns a small group and is close associate of Mr

AK Kaul of Hindu Calendar group, and Mr Hari Malla with some others

have launched a campaign to remove ayanamsha. Mr AK Kaul has almost no

knowledge of astrology. Once, he computed ayanamsha to be at ~47 degrees

and abused all modern astrologers for following a much reduced ayanamsha

od 23-24 degrees, I had to show him the actual formula and practical

method of computation, after which he dropped all correspondence with me

and appointed Mr Prashant Pandey either to " rectify " me or abuse me away

from all forums. Mr Prashant Pandey has now decided to abuse me away ! I

was astonished to read this false from Mr Prashant Pandey in his

previous post in two astrological forums :

 

<<<<

Ppl can find that in Suryasidhanta Rashi's are tropical though it is

greatest farce in the name of accuracy and ppl can also find that in

Purans, Rashis are tropical and there was no talk of ayanamsha(non-

sense what we see now-a-days like of Fagan, Ramanji, Lahiri, Vamdev etc

etc... has anybody read in any Verse from PURAN that they have said that

they wrote under dot dot dot ayanamsha). ..... Vedic Hindu Calendar has

no place for Ayanamsha atleast. .... i don't follow any zodiac system

(Tropical and Sidereal) for predictions but i use 12 house systems

>>>>

 

This fellow does not know that Vedic Astrology cannot survive without

ayanamsha. Suryasiddhanta gives clear rules for computing ayanamsha, yet

he is spreading a falsehood that that raashis were tropical. His uncle

Dr Ramchandra Pandey has quoted Puranic verses which prove that the

concept of ayanamsha was present in Puranas :

 

 

उतà¥à¤¤à¤¾à¤¨à¤ªà¤¾à¤¦à¤ªà¥à¤¤à¥à¤°à¥‹à¤½à¤¸à¥Œ

मेढीभूतो धà¥à¤°à¥à¤µà¥‹

दिवि ।

 

स हि भà¥à¤°à¤®à¤¨à¥ भà¥à¤°à¤¾à¤®à¤¯à¤¤à¥‡

नितà¥à¤¯à¤‚ चनà¥à¤¦à¥à¤°à¤¾à¤¦à¤¿à¤¤à¥à¤¯à¥Œ

गà¥à¤°à¤¹à¥ˆà¤ƒ सह ।।

 

(Uttanapaada-putrau-asau medhi-bhooto Dhruvo divi,

sa hi bhraman bhraamayate nityam Chandraadityau grahaih saha.)

 

" Uttaanapaada's son Dhruva is fixed like an immovable post in the sky,

(but) Dhruva himself moves, taking alongwith him all planets like Moon

and Sun. "

 

This motion of Dhruva is a proof of ayanamsha. I have quoted this

Puranic verse from the book of Mr Prashant Pandey's uncle Dr

Ramchandra Pandey (former HOD of BHU). Mr Prashant Pandey should ask his

uncle, who is my friend, for this verse.

 

Similarly, Suryasiddhanta says

" तà¥à¤°à¤¿à¤‚शतà¥à¤•à¥ƒà¤¤à¥à¤¯à¥‹ यà¥à¤—े

भानां चकà¥à¤°à¥‡ पà¥à¤°à¤¾à¤•à¥

परिलमà¥à¤¬à¤¤à¥‡ " ( trinshat-krityo yuge bhaanaam

chakre praak parilambate), which means " the circle of nakshatras

(bhaanam chakra or bhachakra) falls back and forth like pendulum

(pari-lambate) 600 times in a mahaayuga or once in 7200 years) " . The

maximum extent is 27 degrees, and there are four quartets of 1800 years

each. This concept of trepidating ayanamsha was used by all astrologers

of India and West till Renaissance, including Copernicus, after which

orbital precession was superimposed upon trepidating ayanamsha by those

moderners who had no interest in Vedic Astrology. They falsely claimed

that Suryasiddhanta gave a wrong view of orbital precession, although

Bhaskara-ii quoted Suryasiddhanta for deducing an amazingly accurate

value of orbital precession in his Siddhanta Shiromani which had been

translated into English in 1860 but has been consistently either

neglected or misinterpreted. For details, see Click_Here

(http://jyotirvidya.wetpaint.com/page/Ayanamsha+vs+Precession).

 

I have informed many members of this team, like Mr AK Kaul and Mr Hari

Malla, about these proofs. But they have no respect for proofs, which

convinces me they have some agenda. If Mr Prashant Pandey is really

serious, he should ponder some time to understand this message and

follow the link, and should forward this message to Mr AK Kaul who might

have missed previous messages. Mr Hari Malla has read all these, and

reverts to his tape recorded version dogmatically irrespective of facts

and arguments, there is no need to send this message again to a hater of

math and facts.

 

This team is not going to stop its campaign. If they are not countered,

they will misinform the ignorant public about false interpretations of

Suryasiddhanta, Puranas and Vedas.

 

No member of this team is an astrologer, excepting Mr Prashant Pandey,

but even Mr Pandey is an " extraordinary " astrologer who claims that he

follows neither tropical nor sidereal system and yet used 12 house

system !!! His lagna and other 11 bhaavas and planets are neither

tropical nor sidereal. Can anyone fathom out the depth of knowledge of

this person ??
