Guest guest Posted March 18, 2000 Report Share Posted March 18, 2000 OM VISHNAVE NAMAH Dear Phyl, Your honesty should be an inspiration for the others in this list who have yet to respond. These initial lessons are the derivation of Vedic Astrology from The Spiritual texts as has been done by Parasara. In fact if Jyotish is a Vedanga (Limb of the Veda) then it must have a strong spiritual leaning. In the initial chapters we shall be working towards ACTUALLY DERIVING THE BASICS, WHICH EVERYBODY HAS TAKEN FOR GRANTED. These are questions like: 1.Why are there 12 houses? 2.Why are there Guna's and what do they mean? 3.What do the deities represent? 4.What is the real essence of trines and Quadrants. What is the significance of the Luminaries in this? 5.To what extent can Man control his destiny? 6. Why do only three planets have special aspects? And how do we determine these aspects? 7. What is the meaning of Upachaya? What are its implications? 8. Why do Sun & moon have Yoga's associated with the 2nd & 12th houses? 9. What is the importance of the sun in Rajyoga? 10. What is the significance of the moon in Dhana Yoga? ......This list is endless. The lessons shall be to the point and it is hoped that with some practise the terms etc will become more familiar as the knowledge seeps in. Individual effort is important. Please keep a diary where the technical terms and their meanings can be noted down so that they become easier to handle. Have you received the first lesson? Best Wishes, Sanjay Rath - phyllis <aboutyou <varahamihira > Friday, March 17, 2000 9:27 PM [Jagannath] Re: Why are you all sleeping? Greetings Sanjay, The reason you have not heard from me is because of my confusion. There must be something I have missed in order to begin the homework. Where is the starting point? The last lesson I down loaded means nothing to me. I don't know where or how to apply it. There were four sections in the lesson naming the gods I believe but I have no idea what to DO with this information or how it applies. I'm hoping to gain some insight to what is expected. Thank you for asking why we are all sleeping because I have been thinking the problem is totally mine, may be it isn't. I do look forward to hearing from you soon. Blessings to you........Phyl - Pt Sanjay Rath Varaha Mihira Jyotish List Thursday, March 16, 2000 6:27 PM [Jagannath] Why are you all sleeping? Jaya Jagannath Dear Jyotisha A) I have taken so many students into SJVC with the hope that one day all of them will be top class Daivagyna who will guide this world towards the Light of truth. Yet, the response from most is negligible if not at all. When such exercises are conducted, you all are expected to pitch in your entire effot, to ask what ever questions you want a clarification for. Both Narasimha & I have made so many statements in a recent exercise on Navamsa correction. please check these in the Jaimini Sutra, BPHS personally. B) At least try these out in your own chart. Do not worry, at least the truth about yourself is not hidden from you or from Jagannath Who sits in your heart. So, please study the two navamsa possibilities and give me a list of arguments for or against each. Do not get emotional and be free to write anything. C) Please work on the assignment given to you. I am surprised to see the poor response to the Lessons. If you did not like it, please write to me.
