Shri Prashanth Nairji,

Namaskar!

<Thanks for taking up this job which needs strenous,constant

purposefull efforts>

Many thanks for your encouraging note.

For the real seekers of Truth, the outcome will really be a goldmine

whereas the ones for whom predictive gimmicks in the name " Vedic

astrology " , on the shoulders of the Surya Sidhana, is the be all and

end all of Hindu scriptures, it will be a hornet's nest, since Truth

for them is more stinging than wasps!

<My humble suggestion why cant u join with shri chandra hariji ( a

Resercher and scientist by profession too and not an astrologer ) like

ppl tho u ppl diffr each other ( as i read he is using surya sidhantha

ayanamsa )>

Many thanks for the suggestion. Shri Chandra Hari had come to my

house at Rohini a few years back where he presented his " Hindu

Zodiac " --- a magnum opus about Hindu astronomy---to me. We have a

great deal of respect for each other.

He has read all my works and I have gone through most of his.

Since our views are poles apart, it is next to impossible that we can

join our heads together for any project, least of all resolving the

ayanamsha myth! On the other hand, if we continue to study each

other's contrary views dispassionately, maybe in the long run either

of us will have to change his views---most probably it will be Shri

Chanda Hari, since he has read Yoga Vasishtha and in the ultimate

analysis, therefore, he cannot run away from Truth for a long time!

<i wish all success in ur new endeavor and hope u may accomplish it

by god's grace and will.>

Many thanks for your good wishes.

Regards,

A K Kaul
