Re: Message to all

 

 

 

dear kaul ji

 

namaskar to u

 

pls call me varma not verma ,i like to call me by my real name,

 

 

 

First of all our vedic astrologers used grahas not planets again may b

millions of them r there ( in this universe which varahamihira also told

in his samhitas and horas ) ) also nakshtras ( one area in zodiac ) not

billions of stars ( twinkle twinkle little stars )-this is just

introduction

 

It doesnot mean that u can ask all ur ignorence /purpose full hidden

agendas to me and i shud answer u .it is not my aim too ,i dont blv in

correcting any one who is deliberate/ignorent .If u want u shud learn

frm good gurus .So avoid me to answer all ur doubts which is real or

fabricated .

 

but i used those lines abov to show the diffrnce in ur approach .

 

 

 

Even i blv what sri vijaya raghavan ji has said is correct when

mentioned in his approach with results than seeing reverse as it is not

intelligent for ur present understanding ( mis ) like wat he said .Again

i blv all secrets r to the seeker than shouting and asking questions to

others irrespectv of their knowledge with only aim is to proov ur points

forcibly knowing many ppls level of knowledge .other wise why u dont

agree to see in the light of actual results which he was waiting for

last 20 days

 

..( also i may hold some secrets with me even if i know --again i stress

here dont ask me ur doubts if u dont know tell that u dont know to the

grp and clear off in a decent manner )

 

 

 

There is not much of an explanation to be done regarding Vedas-vis-

vis " Vedic astrology " . All I am asking is to quote the mantras from

any of the Vedas or the Vedanga Jyotisha---or any indigenous

astronomical work prior to the Surya Sidhanta of Maya the mlechha---

that talks about Mesha, Vrisha, Mithuna etc. astrological Rashis!

Similarly, if someone claims that predictive astrology is Vedic,

he/she must also tell us as to how the Vedic Rishis calculated

horoscopes of every Tom, Dick and Harry when planets like Mangal and

Shani are conspicuous by their absence from all the four Vedas and

the Vedanga Jyotisha etc.

Obviously, as there are neither Mesha, Vrisha etc. rashis in the

Vedas etc. nor Mangal and Shani planets, it is impossible that the

Vedic Seers practised predictive gimmicks on the basis of non-

existent rashis!

Thus, to call any predictive " techniques " (sic!) as " Vedic astrology "

is nothing but a fraud on the Vedas!

 

####

 

U r saying so ,but there is lot of instances i heard predictiv

astrology in veda ,puranas and epics

 

sage valmiki said Lord ram born when 5 planets were exlated ,so without

rasi how come exlatation debilation can come ?? what ever may b names

of rasis ,after all wat is in a name ?? ( dont tell me some recent

experiments by some one is proof of ur theory it shud b appreciated in

that sense when some one try to date Lord rama 's period with help of

some SW or his understanding ),even archeologist r trying to find lost

dwaraka under sea ,so any finding goes wrong later i dont think it is

worth humiliating it than u hav a diffrnt purpose .

 

if u quote vedas we hav to strt frm begining as majority has no time to

read and study it and we never asked ur opinions ,so if u blv we shud b

informed,then it becomes ur head ache to explain vedas ,purnas or what

ever it is .

 

Also i request u pls dont call rishis frauds or mlechas .Here u name is

atleast a hindu one other wise u know what will happen with recent

devlpemnts in india .

 

Again i stress here it shud not prevent u frm saying the truth ,what

happened in ur so called greece or all western countires were all gurus

or even scientists were hanged or prosecuted unlike in india and india

it never happend with my small historical knowldge .even blvers and non

blvrs co existed here .but calling names is unwanted esp when reverence

is given to them by many lacs of ppl which u may also agree .Even i dont

think they wrote all this to extract money or with some material

purposes .

 

 

 

Coming to your second point that predictive gimmicks are a science it

appears you are blisfully (or is it deliberately?) unaware that the

zodiac cannot be divided into twelve neat and equal

divisions/compatments like Mesha, Vrisha etc. rashis astronomically!

That just is an impossible task and that is why no astronomer has

attempted it till date!

 

#### any astronomer can try it deviding the zodiac , no problem ,in

maths we r doing it or even in any other experiments ( on mental

/theoretical level level ) ,even longititude and latitude or even

division of electrorates in democarcy or even provinces for economic

purpose etc all r fictious but convenient for a purticular purpose

 

Mesha, Vrisha etc. rashis are actually

Sanskritization of Aries, Taurus etc. Greek constellations, which

were and are unequal! Thus any predictions based on any " equal

twelve divisios " of the zodiac can never be scientific!

 

### yes ,u can say so ,as it is ur opinion .I dont blv we got astro frm

greeks as it is based on punarjanma and karma sidhantha also yevana

means not greeks there are many stories in puranas which says yevana are

hindus and indians but out casts in bookish sense but sons of some

rishis like nagas or asuras .

 

This division of signs r based on suns movement or solar months ( sun

dont movin reality but earth but geocentricaly sun is moving ).

 

even we further divide it into Nakhsatras (13 " 20 " ) )( it is not stars

like what u talks or says ) then navamsa (3 " 20')and various amsa to

nadimasas and ardha nadiamsa(d-300 but not equal division only in nadi

amsa--one rasi is seen as 1/300 th of division ) why we shud depend

greeks only for rasis which is 30 dgree of 12 division of a zodiac ??is

it holds water ,u depends on varhamihira s some sloka to call him fraud

and he took frm yevans and convenently assigns all to greeks which even

they will not agree .Poor him ,if he knows this he wud hav deleted that

stanza >

 

 

 

Secondly, you must yourself be aware that as on date no Jyotishi,

howsoever great he/she may be or may have been, has claimed more than

seventy per cent success in his/her predictions.

 

### sure as he blvs in karmas ,past lifes free will and ur karma is fate

of this birth and this birth's free will and karma ( in right direction

) can b work as a curing activity in case of problems .

 

astrology dont support fatalistic approach ,frauds r in every field esp

in this kali era .

 

 

 

 

 

As per their own

words, only God Almighty can make cent per cent correct assessment!

 

#### yes,it is true with any branch of knowledge which is practical in

applying other than pure mathematics .

 

even ISRO cheif madhavan nair was telling till the mission (chandrayaan

)is successful he cannot say it b4 hand ,not even one sec b4

,mathematicaly he said mission shud b succesful as various liv tests

still going on to make sure of it .

 

It is thus clear that predcitve gimmicks cannot be bracketed as a

branch of astronomy, which demands cent per cent accuracy!

For example, we can calculate these days solar and lunar eclipses

that may take place hundreds of years hence---and those eclipse

timings are correct to the nearest decimal second! Similarly,

eclipses from 3000 BCE have been calculated already--and that also

correct to the nearest decimal second!

 

###

 

It is ur convenient arguemnt i blv .Since u dont hav any factual reports

based on actual incidents .( if true u can giv 1000 exmple i blv )

 

To my knowldge panchanga karta and predicting astrologers are generaly

diffrnt and predictiv astrologers depends panchangas unless they trained

in vedic gurukula tradition of 25 to 30 yrs living in gurukula and

learns ,which is not possible now a days ( even 100s of yrs b4 in

history ) because many reason including feasiblity then also

availability of such gurus and gurukulas.

 

other wise can u tell me one instance were indian astronomers or

sidhanthies calculated wrongly ,even if so( say few minits ) i dont

worry as at least they hav that concept long long back .But the 3 hrs or

4 hrs error is not digestable to me still as u say .

 

 

You can well imagine as to what type of a laughing stock astronomers

will make of themselves if they claim " seventy per cent accuracy " in

the eclipse timings---which means that the solar eclipse that is

supposed to take place say at 3.00 pm in Delhi may take place earlier

of later by at least three hours and so on!

I may mention in the passing that that is exactly what happened in

the past---actual eclipse timings were plus/minus several hours, if

not days, from the calculations based on the Surya Sidhanta of Maya

the mlechha!

 

### i blv u r acting smart in frnt of novices if so why dont u go and

presnt ur paper on surya sidhantha in science forums in frnt of world

renounced astronomers and scientists .

 

Similarly, if just seventy per cent success is/was expected in the

landing timings of Voyager or Atlantis or any other spacecraft you

can appreciate the disastrous consequences of those experiments!

 

### astrology is not astronomy or viceversa .Why predictiv astrologers

shud b worried abt all those astronomical factors which is diffrnt

branch all together after intitial some assossiations .

 

Then again, common sense also precludes our taking predictive

gimmicks as a branch of astronomy! How can Mangal, Shani etc. planets

affect every individual individually and that also through some

intangible Vimshotari or Ashtotari or Yogini or Kalachakra or Manduka

or Pluta Dasha etc. Similarly, if a Star is away from me by about 30

Light Years, how can it affect me instantaneously as soon as my Rahu-

Dasha or Shani Dasha starts? Further more, jyotishis themsleves are

not sure whether they should go by Jaimini system or Tazika system or

Lal Kitab or KP or Brihat Samhita etc. or Western system like

Secondary Progressions etc. which are poles apart from one another

both in the fundamentals as well as the inferences!

 

### u say so ,but i find it diffrntly -equaly contributing r all indian

astro concepts ,i dont know much abt western ones

 

also planets and rasis i told u reference with ramayana( even without a

zero factor no one can calculate even nakshtras which u saying in vedas

)

 

 

Then again, in spite of claiming that Vedic astrology is being

practised from the very dawn of creation---the Vedas are supposed to

exist from the very dawn of creation, which means Vedic astrology

must have been propagated from the day one of creation--that means

about two billion years, according to Vedic astrologers themselves,

they have yet to decide as to which Ayanamsha is the most accurate

for making predictions---Some are screaming about Lahiri Ayanamsha

being the best whereas others claim that Yuktshwar Ayanamsha is the

number one ayanamsha and still others claim Chandra Hari Ayanamsha

beats all the others and so on!

 

### Tell us wat u blv on vedas ,u never done it in any grp than pumping

some ready made questions .other wise i cannot talk on this .

 

The net result of all this plethora of predictive techniques and

ayanamshas and what not has been that we do not know the real date of

Uttarayana or Dakshinayana or Vasanta Sampat or Hemanta Sampat etc.

and thus we never celebrate any of our festivals whether Dipavali or

Viajaya Dashmi or Mahavira Nkirvana Divas etc. on correct days!

 

### first of all we r talking abt astrology i blv ,not ur calander which

is yet to proov its efficacy ( not even used by one man in 6 or 7

billion world population ) .i also told u it depends on ur understanding

abt vedas which u never explained to us .

 

other wise we can say predictiv astrology /space science /rockets etc r

fraud on vedas and hindus shud not use even a cycle as not mentioned in

vedas (means u dont find it in vedas) .oh lucky me - u never find we

were not using cloths during vedic times ( i hope so ,or do u hav some

other arguemnts against it too )

 

Is that what you want us to continue doing just to placate your

larger than life ego?

 

###### [:o]

Well, I am sorry I do not agree with you there nor am I going to be

taken in by such uselss logic and haranguing, that is neither Vedic

nor scientific.

 

### Think whose logic is useless .

 

Hope i will b getting point wise answers than asking me to read books

or get some answers frm all the 100000s of books ,if so then i dont

need to interact here .Also i remind u again u only said it is ur

mission to make us understand on fraud of predictiv gimiks in vedic

astrology .

 

I repeat i personaly can vouch the efficacy of astrology 100 times with

exmples which is my practical exprnce ,so i am not worried too ,even u

all r conducting some desk top type of arguemnts than reality in seeing

it .

 

 

 

also i request u to dont twist anything in my mails.Also dont invite me

/ask to join to more new forums to answer me .

 

 

 

regrds M varma .
