Guest guest Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Dear friends, It is a pity that those who claim to have read Vedanga Jyotisha have not noticed that the text of the Vedanga Jyotisha, which we have today, refers to Lagadha and that this could mean that this was not composed / compiled by Lagadha himself but by someone (could be King Suchi) at a later date. This also indicates the possibility that Lagadha could be a sage, who lived much before the time of the composer / compiler of the Vedanga Jyotisha, which we have today. Lagadha could have lived before the time of the composition of the Bhagavata purana in the 31st century BCE. I know Kaulji will explode but the cooler section of our friends may please give their considered opinion. Regards, Sunil K.

Date: Monday, March 15, 2010, 9:22 AM Dear shri Kaulji, shri Darshaney lokeshji and shri A Sharmaji,Namaskar!<It is only through nakshatras, Junction Stars, that we are able to say that the Vedanga Jyotisha is a work of about 1400 BCE, because that work refers to the New Moon falling in Dhanishtha nakshatra, which coincided with Uttarayana i.e. Winter Solstice! That could have happened only in around 1400 BCE>You are taking things only from your modern angle of deciphering the date of vedanga jyotish. But that was not the intention of Lagadh when he refers to uttarayan occurring when the sun and the moon are in dhanistha nakshyatra. He mentioned that, not to make it easy for you to decipher the historical date( although it has definitely seved that purpose for you), but to facilitate the people of his time to refer to uttarayan as the sun and moon position. The sun position was to be at Dhanistha and moon positon was maagha sukla pratipada for the celebration of 'uttarayan' event and was not celebrated at the actual uttarayan date.As long as uttarayan remained within the maagha sukla pratipada fluctuation zone,it very well served the purpose of representing uttarayan date, for civil purpose of celebration. The problem came only after 1700 years, when maagha sukla pratipada no more went both before and after the uttarayan date. During the whole period of 1700 years,(please note this point,) 'maagha sukla pratipada went both before and after both the nirayan uttaryan celebraton of 'sun in dhanistha position' as well as the actual tropical uttarayan dates, which although kept on shifting year after year, very very slowwwly. In other words, maagha sukla pratipada coordinated the sayan and the nirayn dates for 1700 years and thus did not need any change in the nirayan position of the 'sun in dhanistha' as the nirayan uttrayan date.Can you please understand the meaning of this statement that Vedanga jyotish remained nirayan for 1700 years both from the solar and the lunar view points! Do comment if you have any doubt in this.<All these details about calculating tithi, nakshatra, ritus andmonths-----but not rashis and planets!---- --have been given by Acharya Lagadha in his Vedanga Jyotisham in around 1400 BCE,>Again you are forgetting the main issue and getting carried away by secondary issues. Rashis only fixed the sun more precisely by virtue of supplying the sankrantis. It in no way contradicted the nakshyatra postion of the sun, but supported it. Wether you say sun at dhanistha or sun at makar sankranti, conceptually it is the same. Both are the 'nirayan or stellar' positions of the sun.Please understand this too.Yes,the planets were a new concept added which had no scientific or religious bearing , but not the rashis. The rashis helped in fixing the sun at the 12 sankrantis. This in fact was a very good idea since the sun is actually a fixed object, scientifically speaking.We should applaude this improvement, because this helped to set the adhimas in a more accurate way, than of the Vedanga jyotish. Thus after 1700 years of fruitful existence, vedanga jyotish lost its importance and accuracy to set the correct uttaryan postion. It was high time to set a new nirayan uttaryan. This was done by shifting the new nirayan uttarayan at makar sankranti, seven padas backwards.This new nirayan uttaryan set during the Sidhanta Jyotish also lost its value after the 15th century, since the new tithi of poush purnima as the new uttaryan tithi, also lost contact with the moving tropical uttarayan, which moves with the precesion of earth axis. (Do not tell me you do not know what precession is!) Then it was time to shift the new nirayan uttaryan to dhanu sankranti. But since it has not been done till date, let us fix it now. The new nirayan uttaryan as dhanu sankranti will have its value effective further for 1500 years in the future. But while we do our calendar reform, let us not change our traditional coordinative system which is mainly based on tithi which coordinates both the sayan and the nirayan values of celebration of the event of uttarayan. The importance of the nirayan value of uttrayan is that it is set at the fixed star position and also it falls at the mid point of the fluctuation of the uttaryan tithi, which is now to be mrigasira purnima. Let us stick to our Vedic coordinative system as it always has been coordinative of both the sayan and the nirayan systems. It is time both shri Darshaney lokeshji and shri Kaulji do not pretend ignorance of this Vedic concept of coordination, since the sixth sloka of Yajur Vedanga jyotish makes it quite clear.Thank you.Regards,Hari MallaHinduCalendar, "jyotirved" <jyotirved@. ..> wrote:>> Shri T.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Mr. R.N. Vashisht, Secretary to Government of India and M.Sc in Astronomy used to promote Mr. Avtaar Krishan Kaul and even tried to make his ephemeris popular but he could not succeed and so perhaps Mr. Kaul though he must be complimented for fighting a lonely battle alone and that too for a long time. He deserves atleast kudos for fighting his battles alone and for such a long time when the Calenders Reforms Committee constituted for the purpose has not appreciated such a view point. Kaul dada, keep it up.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Der Manoj Kumarji, <Calenders Reforms Committee constituted for the purpose has not appreciated such a view point.> By the 'calendar reform committee' Are you referring to the Shaha committee of 1957 or some other?
