[Ind. & West. Astrology] Fwd: Happy Vijaya Dasami 2066, on Bhadra 14; August 30,2009

[Guest guest]

Dear Sir ,

As regards celebrating festivals in India ,

I will like to mention as under:

 

 

" Equinoxes and Solstices were in no way linked to Sidereal

signs. It is purely a misnomer.

Our sages devised 27 Nakshatra based on the fact that

Moon takes 27.3 days to complete one round of the Zodiac.

These Nakshatra have an equal arc of 13deg 20 min and

first Nakshatra is named and counted from Asavini.This is

the division also for Astrological purposes. The movement

of above four cardinal points is observed and recorded in the background of

these Nakshatra and stars. As these points are indicator of the seasons and

very necessary for civil functions of the society .The days of their occurrences

are considered very auspicious. These four points had to do nothing with Makara

Sankranti. . This

is the one part of the story.

 

As earth was taking nearly 365 days to go round the Sun.

the circular zodiac was divided in equal 360 deg. There were

approximately 12 lunar months in one solar year, they divided

zodiac in 12 sidereal signs of 30 deg each and first sign was

named as Aries. The sign Aries commences from the initial

(or zero degree) of Asavini. This point is opposite to Star Citra (Spica 16).

Makara Sankaranti was always observed on the ingress of Sun in sidereal

Makara (Capricorn) sign which contains Sharvan Nakshatra.

As such the assumption that Makara

sankaranti was celebrated on the occurrence

of the day of winter solstice , is nothing but a fragrance of misplaced

imagination.

 

Once sidereal signs were widely adopted in the construction of

12 house nativity, these signs were put multiple uses over a long period like:

1. The sign rising in the East was considered as Ascending sign and subsequent

were considered as 2h and so on..

2. In Kala pursa chart 1st house was always synonym to sign Aries. 1st house and

sign Aries

represent same significance. This is the reason that Mars is permanent owner of

1st house and Sun is its significator. Ancient sage Bhirgu has

devised many yogas on this basis.

3. This method has given other ideas.

As V.E. POINT was a important reference point since ancient times, a new

division of 12 signs was devised commencing from V.E.point ,.the first sign

again named as Aries though it was not having any direct link with stars. Even

Astronomers

started calling V.E.point as “THE FIRST POINT OF ARIESâ€. This had happened

only

when this point could be precisely located on the Zodiac. All of us know that

Pope Gregory 13th had to adjust the calendar by 10 days. Indian

festivals were always celebrated bases on Panchang ie the five parameters (

limbs)of mahurta. namely 1. Week days 2. Ththi 3. Karan ,4. Nakshatra 5. yoga

(addition of

sidereal longitudes of Moon and Sun). There was no question of fixing the date

and time of Indian festivals based on Tropical coordinates. "

Shri Hari Malla-ji.

Namastey!

 

<Happy Vijaya Dasami 2066, on Bhadra 14; August 30,2009>

Even nirayananawalas are celebrating Vijaya Dashmi this year on September 28!

Your celebrating it on August 30 must therefore be " double nirayana " , since

nirayana festivals are usually one month ahead of Sayana festivals, whereas

yours appear to be one month behind Sayana and nirayana, both!

As such, three cheers for Hari Malla-calendar, which is neither nirayana nor

sayayan least of all Vedic olr Pauranic!

It is futile to discuss any other astronomical or sidhantic point with you since

you have got an infection from some " parokshya Professors " to interpret

everything and anything the way you want to!

Dhanyavad.

> Namaskar! The logic is simple.In the purnimanta system, the Kojagrat purnima

is the equinoctical purnima.At present Ashwin purnima is said to be the Kojagrat

purnima.But Ashwin purnima does not touch the preesnt tropical equinox, during

its fluctuation, but Bhadra purnima does go forward and backward of Ashwin 7th,

the equinoctical date or september 22-23. Thus the present Bhadra purnima

becomes the undoubted equinoctical purnima and thus the Kajagrat purnima too.

> There is no change of prevalent system here.Only the renaming of Bhadra

purnima as Ashwin purnma to keep the dharma shastraas intact since dharma

shastras says, Ashwin purnima is the equinoctical purnima and the start of

Kartik snana from it. Thus we only call the Bhadra purnima as the Ashwin

purnima. Since the lunar month shift one month for the above reason,in a

coordianted fashion, we also shift the solar months.This is required in our soli

lunar system where the sun and the moon are coordinated.

> In the Amanta system,Kartik sukla pratidpada( overdhan puja, or the start of

Ram rajya) is said to be the equinoctical date. This is also shifted by one

month backward as it does not touch the equinox,whereas the present Aswin sukla

partipada, which touches the equinox becomes the equinoctical pratipada as it

goes both backward and froward from the equinoctical date of September 22- 23

during its fluctuation. Please refer to the drawing 'Scientific basis of

calendar reform' in the file section of parvasuhar forum.

> The underlying principle or theory behind it is, do not change any of the

present system or formula, but only change the numerical values in the formulas

as required, so we do not disturb the superb vedic system that we already have,

which is to guide the whole world in the future for world peace.A guideline

which will guide all future calendar reforms in the world, including the

Gregorian calendar, of which the modern conscious Christians are not fully

satisfied.

>

> Thus my request to shri Kaulji, to realise the suberb calendar we already

have, and not to meddle with our system, with the help of a lesser developed

calendar which is the Gregorian calendar, inspite of Shri BK Dixit's praise for

it.thank you,
