Guest guest Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Dear Sir, Finding the learners or seekers of knowledge is very difficult situation particulalrly in these days every thing is available in googgle search.It is easy to pick up like a parrot few words here and there and make noise.The kind of review: " like any child, learning a new language, the astrologer must first read and understand and incorporate what has already been developed, what has happened or occurred already and learn it a posteriori! " no body would feel happy and comfortable with such kind of approach,though necessary. present genaration as we have seen in the e-media is to learn from blogs.their reliability,comprehensiveness and originality are far from consistency and truth.They may however help for such seekers of knowledge to promote their own slefish interests and get focussed.

Please let me share with you my bias. Jyotish being a service presumably and primarily, there is the natural requirement to be able to give, to offer, energy must express and flow outwards. Jyotishis must not spend too much time and energy on their own charts and personal destinies, unless it becomes absolutely necessary and perhaps those are the moments when Jyotishi must ask someone higher...

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Krishnan Dada, Arsa longa vita brevis! Empty distractions will plague us jyotishis always, like in the past! And one's own chart is not the best place to test a new toy. And, by that I mean, as long as we all are learning astrology and not making wild claims of accuracy, it is best to avoid testing those on one's chart. Sadly, I have seen this in some very mature and very admirable jyotishis. They test a new technique or yoga on their chart and then it is either keep or toss! But maybe they know what they are doing!

Guest guest Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Rohini Dada, I would like to be called as hasty as cyber media for umpteen opportunities always makes issues more divergent and complicated. For learning environment,I still prefer that Guru Sishya Parampara by acceptin a person as your teacher and learn from him through his writings.discourse or by observations. Infact,i was lucky to have the influnece of Shri.K.N.Rao before a systematic study was made/initiated.Later,Infact those were the days when Rao saheb was promoting A.M through his writings and analysis.Late Raman when thought of ICAS and Institutionalisation,there were parting of ways and the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan has made it's existence for stamping purpose and promote Astrology as a subject. Infact all these eminent personalities have least remeberance of their birth chart and all of their experiments and learning came through the charts of others.In 80s Computerised horscopes find lot of bugs till date and we do not know whether they fitted their programs based on BPHS or Parashara.Now a days the problems are encountered through software developed through K.P System. A person recently brought a horoscope made according to KP and has given it to me.According to that some body analysed that he will bag big computer project and make big buck.when in my own way,I found him to be a fraudster and unreliable.His birth around amvasya days and with Rahu in 2nd from lagna could only lead his project into total loss and himself facing leagal issues.

Guest guest Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 Krishnan Dada, You are blessed, of course, to have enjoyed the blessings of such Great Teachers that have changed the Tides of Jyotish in our times! All that aside, may I gently impose upon you to re-think your position about the " fraduster " , Sir? :-) Not the Fraudster part because you would not have accused someone so harshly unless there was justification. I am only requesting you to link it totally with rahu in 2nd being the indicator! I know of a chart of an individual born on Shivratri with karkata rising and rahu in 2nd house. He was anything but a fraudster and built an educational institution that was very much acclaimed. Rahu was of course stabilized by jupiter from the 10th and many planets right across from where it was located! Never underestimate or hastily judge rahu! Not in kaliyuga, certainly ;-) Rohiniranjan , vattem krishnan <bursar_99 wrote: > > Rohini Dada, > I would like to be called as hasty as cyber media for umpteen opportunities always makes issues more divergent and complicated. > For learning environment,I still prefer that Guru Sishya Parampara by acceptin a person as your teacher and learn from him through his writings.discourse or by observations. > Infact,i was lucky to have the influnece of Shri.K.N.Rao before a systematic study was made/initiated.Later,Infact those were the days when Rao saheb was promoting A.M through his writings and analysis.Late Raman when thought of ICAS and Institutionalisation,there were parting of ways and the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan has made it's existence for stamping purpose and promote Astrology as a subject. > Infact all these eminent personalities have least remeberance of their birth chart and all of their experiments and learning came through the charts of others.In 80s Computerised horscopes find lot of bugs till date and we do not know whether they fitted their programs based on BPHS or Parashara.Now a days the problems are encountered through software developed through K.P System. > A person recently brought a horoscope made according to KP and has given it to me.According to that some body analysed that he will bag big computer project and make big buck.when in my own way,I found him to be a fraudster and unreliable.His birth around amvasya days and with Rahu in 2nd from lagna could only lead his project into total loss and himself facing leagal issues. > Let's learn through what is understandable and is open for every body to try and learn some thing out of such innovative approaches > vrkrishnan > P.S:need ofcourse to check mercury is not retrograde to make confounding issues > > --- On Thu, 6/11/09, Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan wrote: > > > Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan > Re: ASTROLOGY: An Exercise, a quest -- a posteriori obviously! > > Thursday, June 11, 2009, 7:07 PM > > Krishnan Dada, > > Arsa longa vita brevis! > > Empty distractions will plague us jyotishis always, like in the past!

Guest guest Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 Daera Dada, Demonic form Rahu given in word form gave in classic texts and with no waists.no legs and has no nature of it's own all must be interesting to make noise for many jyotish and convince problem struck and grief ridden people who are our stength,give jyotish mnaa.so there is lot in the forum to assume,presume and pronounce.once it is north node it itakes every one to tangible providing opportunity for fraud too.when we have other seven planet to characterise total signs of zodiac,let's us be classic only though word form convertions took after several'000 years later and made out of memories and based on sruti,a form of verbal dleivarance. Insted of countering that some thing of " between cup and lip like " situations, rahu in 2nd tends to take away " walk suddhi " and maligns mind to enable human beings to play trick to take advantage of gullibles.These half planets and chaya grahas continues to be a good material for jyotishis when we find people building institutions and contribute to society benift,we recollect a old addage that 'some Damad/son in law of a good family thought of donating in laws property " so word versions now available in texts need to be studied and grope into vastness of jyotish and filter our meaningful things to understand things better and fulfil the objectives of jyotish and there are always innocents who want us to get into roots to find why their husbands/wife get into multi marriages and why they chase others etc and explain issues vrkrishnan --- On Sat, 6/13/09, Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan wrote: Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan Re: ASTROLOGY: An Exercise, a quest -- a posteriori obviously!

And one's own chart is not the best place to test a new toy. And, by that I mean, as long as we all are learning astrology and not making wild claims of accuracy, it is best to avoid testing those on one's chart. > > > > Sadly, I have seen this in some very mature and very admirable jyotishis. They test a new technique or yoga on their chart and then it is either keep or toss! But maybe they know what they are doing!

But I am surprised some astrologers are too much stuck to their biases to even test this alternative. I have stopped arguing with those who are under a vow never to rest this alternative. Mere argumentation leads to nowhere, astrology is a practical science. There is no dearth of hypocrites among astrologers who deliberately make wrong statements that their Dritharashtra- method is foolproof. If so, why evade testing and cpmparing the Case Studies and yet talk like good Samaritans in the " service " of mankind ? > > > > > > -VJ > > > > > > ============ ========= = ==== > > > > > > ____________ _________ _________ __ > > > vattem krishnan <bursar_99 > > > > > > > Thursday, June 11, 2009 10:42:45 AM > > > Re: ASTROLOGY: An Exercise, a quest -- a posteriori obviously! > > > > > > Sir, > > > when ever I tried to find something in my own chart,i find myself as If my both eyes are not functional I felt like Dritharashtra of Maha Barath. > > > Astrology basically when learnt and think we can give some service to society honestly and sincerely we may attempt to so so.But in anticipation of time and money factors in return.if we can really guide and helps some body to over come his won inhibitions and barriers that itself a great satisfaction to us > > > vrkrishnan > > > > > > --- On Wed, 6/10/09, Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan@ hotmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > Rohiniranjan <rohini_ranjan@ hotmail.com> > > > Re: ASTROLOGY: An Exercise, a quest -- a posteriori obviously! > > > > > > Wednesday, June 10, 2009, 11:21 PM > > > > > > Krishnan ji, > > > > > > In this matter, I am sure, each of us may have individual experiences and we may come from different zones of biases and so on. > > > > > > Please let me share with you my bias. > > > > > > Jyotish being a service presumably and primarily, there is the natural requirement to be able to give, to offer, energy must express and flow outwards. > > > > > > Jyotishis must not spend too much time and energy on their own charts and personal destinies, unless it becomes absolutely necessary and perhaps those are the moments when Jyotishi must ask someone higher... > > > > > > RR > > > > > > , vattem krishnan <bursar_99@ ..> wrote: > > > > > > > > Dear Sir, > > > > Finding the learners or seekers of knowledge is very difficult situation particulalrly in these days every thing is available in googgle search.It is easy to pick up like a parrot few words here and there and make noise.The kind of review: " like any child, learning a new language, the astrologer must first read and understand and incorporate what has already been developed, what has happened or occurred already and learn it a posteriori!

Communication is the very essence of creation, as I see it. Ants can work as a society, even the lowly hydra has what is taught as division of labour and duties, schools of fish know when to travel together, flocks of birds go from north to south and back to north, year in and year out! Sure, individuals fall aside and do not conform but all of these are about signaling and communication! Jagdeesh Chandra Bose demonstrated and many after him how so called 'lowly' species can communicate and respond to one another, no matter in how crude a manner or complex. > > > > > > > > Astrology is nothing other than two worlds communicating with one another: The Macrocosmos and the microcosmos.
