Guest guest Posted December 6, 2009 Report Share Posted December 6, 2009 Dear friends, Jai Shri Ram! < All the Rashis mentioned in the puranas are Sidereal as shown in the Vamana purana and no other purana had contradicted that. No purana ever said that the rashis are not sidereal.> Rashis are imaginary twelve equal animal divisions of twelve/thirteen unequal animal divisions of an imaginary circle called zodiac which ranges between nine degrees aboe and nine degrees below of yet another imaginary circle known as ecliptic. Thus those " equal aninmals " can neither be sidereal nor tropical! The myth of nirayana and sayana rashis is also a creation of jyotishis without any scientic basis. As such, if Shri Bhattacharjya believes that even the Pauranic rishis had no idea about rashi divisions being imaginary, that is his prerogative, and nobody can help him! Jai Shri Ram!

No purana ever said that the rashis are not sidereal. Let Jyotirved show a single statement if any purana specifically mentioned that the Rashis are not sidereeal. All the Rashis mentioned in the Puranas, as quoted by Jyotirved in his BVB6.doc,  are sidereal. His assertions that the Rashis are not sidereal would not change what Vamana purana says about the rashis. The Vamana purana tells us which ar the nakshatras in a particular Rashi.. Puranas have not talked about Sayana rashi chakra. Jyotirved is shamelessly continuing your bluffs. > > Regards, > > Sunil K.
