Guest guest Posted January 31, 2003 Report Share Posted January 31, 2003 Pranaam Sanjay, We had an argument long back on whether weekdays and horas start at sunrise or 6 am LMT. Below, you say the same thing regarding kaalas also. I have a simple question. Ghatika lagna and hora lagna are also computed from sunrise. Do you advise that 6 am LMT should be used instead of Sunrise even in the definition of GL and HL (even though Parasara explicitly used the term sunrise in the definition)? If not, what about " people living in Finland, Norway, Alaska etc rejecting the rationality of Vedic Astrology " ? The same criticism applies here. I hope you will answer this question.
