Guest guest Posted July 9, 2001 Report Share Posted July 9, 2001 Dear Narasimha, Pranam. >Now we have 2 ends, which represent one half of the line; if we were to >calculate a full circumambulation, we should multiply by 2 = 2.400 years, >but this means a distance of 33 degrees 20 min. so one rasi is indeed >covered by 2.160 years and the full precession circle is 25.920 years, thus >giving us a yearly ayanamsa of exactly 50 sec. (not as I wrote before, >because I had confused the 2 naksatras). The distance of 33 degrees 20 min. I mentioned here was also a mistake on my part. The actual distance is 46 degrees 40 min., since we are starting from 13 degrees 20 min. Leo and the line goes retrograde. So 360 degrees x 1.200 years/ 46 degrees 40 min. gives us 9.257,14286 years. This corresponds on the other hand with 9 naksatras covered in 1 circle, and since there are 3 trines, I multiply by 3 and that gives 27.771,42858 years for the full ayanamsa circle or precession. That comes down on 46,666666 sec per year. >I got a quite close line-up of planets in 1.277 BC in month of Dec. Seems I mixed up the numbers here. That would be unreasonable. My latest idea for the date of the Battle of Kuruksetra using this ayanamsa value goes to 3.018 BC. A common misunderstanding is also that the kali-yuga started only when Krsna left the planet. Actually according to Srimad-Bhagavatam the kali-yuga started when Krsna was still on the planet, but it's influence only was felt after He left. According to the verses I posted earlier it was mentioned 50 years before Maharaja Pariksit's birth, who was in the womb during the Battle of Kuruksetra. There are more verses, but time is too short now for me to write. I had a busy time with a week of seminars.
