Fw: Birthtime of Swami Vivekananda 13/2

February 12, 2010

Let me explain one more time, Dear Brother! Raman jee did not change anything in

the case of Vivekananda. He simply used the data given by F.C. Dutta in Modern

Astrologer in the November 1908 issue. So the argument you are using does not

work in this specific case.

One thing seems to be certain that F.C. Dutta's data is the earliest one and

then we have two data from Nikhilananda. If I were to hazard a guess, I would

say that Nikhilananda probably used the FC Dutta and thereafter found out that

6:49 was the epoch to use.

When a person writes the specific time and " intelligently " indicates the

relation with sunrise time (verifiable by all astrologers), it tells me that the

person is not using a casual approach but understands the problems that

astrologers face and hence added the checksum approach.

What bothers me are the following:

a) If some Mutt person changed the birthdata without giving reason in

Nikhilananda's writing, WHY? What else got changed in the biography? :-)

b) If Nikhilananda was using FC Dutta's data in some earlier edition (I am

guessing), why did he not indicate the source, particularly if the 1953 edition

date was changed for some reason!

c) Just using this as a modern example where we see so many changes and

differences between different versions of a relatively recent text touched by

MODERN MAN, how can we be sure that our so called Scriptures are in their

original, nascent, pristinely pure state?

What does COMMONS SENSE tells you...? :-)

now. and raman has done in mnay cases shift the lagna, esp ones that change due

hard to see why he chose that as he had analysed it as well, in many cases the

ayanamsa change itself can change the Lagna still he choose them and read it

isnt it.

close the topic because it has become gutthi like most of the conundrums in

jyotish!

have not read the article personally.

analysing the chart before they are sure of the birthtime :-)

I found and shared with you all regarding the 6:49 AM time. The reason why I am

not interested in Swamiji's charts include:

rectification or establishment of what was Vivekananda' s chart or Angelina

Jolie's chart or Amitabh Bachchan's true birthtime that some claim is only known

Dear Nandini,

A good move as this will set some work on hand for all those interested in

trying to find the truth in birth time cases the family, nurses, doctors alone

can be accurate rest are only reported depending on the day,, nature of delivery

as well.

but no one else must claim more to these data mmax they can work, analyse ,

present their case, leave it to public to read, analyse accept them or stand by

status quo for the work has already done by some in the past generations with

little pretence of such claims to be in direct contact with god.... yet treat

their fellow human beings with utter disrespect that is something strange inst

it...? Love, compassion, care, forgiveness.tolerance must be their

benchmarks.....

Re: Fw: Birthtime of Swami Vivekananda

Dear Utkal ji,

You may already be aware of this but this is what I have found. There are two

books written by Swami Nikhilananda, as is evident from the following link.

http://www.ramakrishna.org/catalog/bk_sv.htm

1. Vivekananda: Yogas and Other Works - the 2nd book in the catalog

The scan that RRji has kindly uploaded is from this book and we can see the

birth time there as 6:49 - 'a few minutes AFTER sunrise'.

2. Vivekananda: A Biography - the 3rd book in the catalog

This one states the time as 6:33 - 'a few minutes BEFORE sunrise'. PDF versions

of this book are available at two sites at least. I hope and pray there are no

copyright issues involved in these.

http://www.vivekana nda.net/PDFBooks /BiographybyNikh ilananda. pdf

http://www.scribd. com/doc/18716/ BIOGRAPHY- OF-SWAMI- VIVEKANANDA

I hope this helps in your search.

Regards,

Nandini
