Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Dear All, I hope everyone will recognize your good faith, Jay, and mine in this matter. SJC doesn't need this, let alone Jyotish- It can harm a lot, both. IMHO- it is a seed of self-destruction of SJC, and for that reason only, I feel bad about this. Do we need depreciative titles, that people ridicule for right reasons for a long time, likle Cold Water Managers and PhD Carpenters... We do not need artificial pumping for what already HAS REAL value, Jyotish and Silicon Breasts-how do that sound to you dear friends? What was definition of lack of vanity and other requirements of morality written by OLD sages, we all claim to accept as ULTIMATE AUTHORITY I do have interest of SJC and Jyotish in mind, and I hope you trust me.

I strongly object to the misuse of the title "Professor" as described in SJC's last 'Appointment of Jyotisha guru's". The title professor is a genuine academic title which follows a specific predefined international criteria and used by recognized academic institutions. The title 'professor' is earned in universities after many years of study, sweat, blood, tears and difficult exams, usually taking a part of a life time. SJC is NOT an academic institution nor a recognized high-education institute and as such has no authority to allocate or appoint academic titles. I may be wrong but I find it very unethical and certainly against the purity that Jyotish teaches us. It will be advisable to review this issue prior to any action from any officials ...

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 |brihaspatim varenyam|Dear Anna & JayThat is not the reason. The title remains Jyotisa Guru as you can clearly see in the circular sent out. The explanation of the meaning of Jyotisa Guru has to be given to authorities in various countries having various laws and cultures. The closest I could get to was professor (as was requested by one senior Jyotisa Guru for the sake of registration of SJC/carrying out his work in that country). I did not change the title. It continues as Jyotisa Guru.A Guru is far too learned a person, too dedicated, having spent a life time of hardwork in learning the highest aspect of life to be called a professor. Personally, this is going to be objected to in India as Professor is a very derogatory translation for the Guru. So, this has been kept within brackets as an explanation for those authorities etc who do not (and never will) understand the meaning of Jyotisa Guru.~ om tat sat ~Yours truly,Sanjay Rath---------------------------H-5, B.J.B Nagar, Bhubaneswar 751014, India+91-674-2436871 http://srath.com--------------------------------Original Message-----N.Anna [anmar]Friday, July 11, 2003 5:02 AMvarahamihira ; Subject: Re: Achyuta Gurukul] Re: |Sri Varaha| Appointment of new Gurus and Administrative headsDear All, I hope everyone will recognize your good faith, Jay, and mine in this matter.
