SJC-Boston Conference (Aug 11/12)

[Guest guest]

Namaste friends,

 

This is the last call for registration for the SJC-Boston Jyotish conference,

2007. There is a small change in the schedule and it is a 1.5 day conference

instead of 2 days now. Out of town attendees can leave early on Sunday.

 

There is a lot of material that will be presented for the first time. The MP3

audio recording of this conference will be made available, but there may be a

delay. Those who live nearby, please take advantage of this event and try to

attend in person. The event is free.

 

The updated schedule is given below.

--------------

9:00 am - 12:30 pm: " Drigdasa Taught by Parasara " - by PVR Narasimha Rao

--------

 

 

Pranapada lagna is an important special ascendant taught by Parasara. It is the

source of the life force within us. It is a very important and yet the least

understood special ascendant. It is important in birthtime rectification, timing

of various events including diseases and even death. Pt Sanjay Rath taught

several things about it for the first time in this presentation and the

SJC-Boston students will do their best job to present this special knowledge. I

will be helping them.

 

Drigdasa is the dasa that shows events in spiritual life and spiritual progress.

In my study of " Brihat Paaraasara Horaa Saastram " , I found that Drigdasa taught

to me by Sanjay ji differs from what Parasara taught and that what Parasara

taught works better. When I asked Sanjay ji how confident he was of the

calculation details he taught, he said his teachings could have been wrong. He

said he was taught all those things in a small amount of time and he took brief

notes and there might have been errors. My well-considered view is that what

Parasara taught is correct and what we at SJC have so far taught is erroneous.

This conference will be the first occasion that this version of Drigdasa will be

taught publicly. I will soon release a newer revision of " Jagannatha Hora "

software that can calculate Parasara's version of Drigdasa.
