Dear Ronnie,

 

Great Post. Agreed with every word.

 

Re. the below Paragraph, what is the difference between " True " and " Mean "

Nodes - which should we be using for the most accurate positions of Rahu &

Ketu?

 

Also, the same question for " Parallax Off " or " Parallax On " for the Moon's

Position - what's the difference, and which do Learned List Members feel

should be used out of the two types? Seeing as it significantly alters the

Dates of Dasas by " Switching " between Parallax On or Off.

 

Many thanks.

 

Very best regards - Sateesh.
