[SJC: Varahamihira] Calculating Jytorlinga: A response

[Guest guest]

Om Sri Rama Jai Jai Rama

 

Namaste Robert,

thanks again for your post... I undertand your email...

Yet, why calcuate from Aries? I would think sensitive points

relative to my person ( Lagna), Mind ( Janma Nakshatra)

Or parents ( 4th or 10th) would be in order... how does

Aries tie in? I am sure I must be missing a " common sense " point.

 

Regards,

Frank..

The exact calculations of the Jyotir-linga are a little vague from the CD's

available, yet I took the calculation from Aries, for the following

reason: The Moon's progress at 12 degree increments from the Sun,

constitute a Tithi, and thus the forward progression of the Moon through 12

degrees, symbolizes its movement through 12 signs of the zodiac. So, if

the Moon is displaced from the Sun by a certain percentage of degrees, then

taking that percentage from Aries gives its position in the zodiac

accordingly. Still, it makes sense to count it from the Sun, or from the

lagna too. We will have to hear from Sanjay on this, as this too is an

area which I am new to.

 

All the best,

Robert
