Guest guest Posted December 4, 2000 Report Share Posted December 4, 2000 Namaste Frank, The tattwas Sanjay is talking about are nothing but the navamsa rasis corresponding to the padas. In each nakshatra, the navamsas corresponding to the 4 padas go into agni, bhoo, vaayu and jala rasis. Padas are nothing but navamsas. If we realize this, we will not worry about odd/even etc. Sanjay, I have a question. When teaching Kalachakra dasa, Parasara taught finding effective navamsa for apasavya nakshatras differently. In Aswini, for example, effective navamsas corresponding to the 4 quarters are Ar, Ta, Ge and Cn. But, for Uttaraphalguni (an apasavya nakshatra), the 4 effective navamsas of the 4 quarters are NOT Sg, Cp, Aq and Pi, but they are Pi, Aq, Cp and Sg (mirror images). For apasavya nakshatras, the 4 effective navamsas used for the 4 padas in Kalachakra dasa go from watery to fiery, while they go from fiery to watery in savya nakshatras. How does this relate to what you taught? What is the significance of this? Almost every property of apasavya nakshatras is opposite of the corresponding property of savya naksahtras. Why? What is the real meaning of savya and apasavya nakshatras? Why is everything different between them? When you told me to write a book on KCD, I said wasn't confident. This is the reason. I don't have answers to these fundamental questions. It will make sense to write a book only after I *understand* the underlying philosophy.
