answers to AK Kaulji

[Guest guest]

dear friends

 

shri ak kaulji earlier rebutted the present calendar system which

according to him is incorrect as he seemed like having done enough

research on this subject and has historic evidences, dating of events

and fixing the dates etc. one can understand and appreciate his new

system just like a new ayanamsha.

 

later he went on presenting astrology as a fraud and unheard in

vedas.

 

then he said some planets found mention in vedas and few other

planets were not mentioned and were added by modern people later.

 

when some members presented various ancient scriptural references of

all planets and all 27 stars finding mention in vedas and puranas, he

said that yes, planets and stars find mention in scriptures but not

for predictive purposes.

 

now some members presented references from proper four vedas what

this planet in that star means etc., and kaulji started arguing that

yes, all these planets and stars were mentioned in ancient scriptures

but signs of zodiac like mesha etc., were never mentioned.

 

let me state clearly that all nine planets, all 27 stars, all 12

zodiac signs find mention in all ancient scriptures. specifically,

zodiac signs, which is the last missing item of kaulji in vedas, too

finds mention in the puranas, samhitas and shastras written by the

same sages.

 

it is ignorant if one says that only four vedas are referral books

and not the others like vedangas, puranas, samhitas, shastras,

smritis etc.

 

planets and stars are oft used by the natives even in the previous

three yugas. here is one puranic reference of description of a night

where the asura king durjaya visits and stays at the hermitage of

sage gauramukha.

 

after the sun as red as aruna, set behind the mountains, the night

made its advent, adorned by the autumnal moon and the constellation

of pleiades (krittika). the moon, the spouse of rohini, diffused its

rays generating pleasure even to the sober people. next arose venus

the preceptor of the demons, sukra, the son of bhrigu, the overlord

of the daityas in company with saturn. he did not shine brilliantly

since he had joined the opposite camp just as by nature the intellect

of men does not shine if they associate with wrong side. mangala,

the son of the earth, also rose and diffused its reddish glow, while

rahu grew white by the white rays of the moon. the nature of the

world is shunned by the gods and demons. over the belt of rays

diffused by venus like the white path of sun, even the mightiest ketu

cannot make darkness. at that time the activities of the wicked was

also pure. the planet mercury, the son of the moon, endowed with

high intellect, shone brightly radiating the world with its glory and

moved for a long time in its own orbit. indeed such is the

similarity that exists among the honest. soon after, ketu came up

over the course of the moon and made the sky tawny for sometime.

verily, a vile person does never perform his trickery in a clean

manner before an assembly of virtuous persons. though the quarters

were all brightened by the rays of the moon, yet the light was

obstructed every time. Indeed, a righteous conduct is inherent in a

noble descent. eminence of the great comes through the association

with the noble. by the moon, son of varuna and aggravator of the

three maladies, the rays of the sun were completely overpowered.

verily, the injunctions of the Vedas can never be otherwise. dhruva,

the polar star, who, in his infancy in the past, had propitiated the

lord hari, did now make its appearance in the firmament in full glory

singular by its association with hari. night befell in this way over

the excellent hermitage of the sage.

 

the above is how the night is described in all splendour of the

planets, stars and the constellations.

 

members may kindly note that once I too agreed with kaulji that in

the previous yugas, there were sages who are all trikalajnanis who

knew the past, present and future just by their vision and astrology

for predictive purpose was not required for those elevated souls. in

fact the wide usage of astrology is seen in kaliyuga due to the sages

falling into minority and rare to find.

 

hence my request to kaulji is that he shall desist from passing an

authoritative comment that vedas and puranas do not mention first

planets, then stars and now signs, for we all knew numerous instances

of these finding mention right from the four Vedas.

 

based on the constitutional provisions and rights of this land, if

believers of astrology learn astrology and solicit consultation,

advises and remedies based on planetary influences, why kjaulji shall

strive to waste his time on proving these beliefs wrong. belief in

any system of siddhanta is a matter of personal freedom, choice and

right of any individual and no individual (including kaulji) can

invade on the freedom of individuals to follow what they believe.

 

with best wishes and blessings
