1. Tribute to Sri C.S.

Patel

Contributions in four main research studies: Ashtakavarga, Arudha padas, Navamsas, and Nadi Jyotish. Proved use of trans-Saturnine planets by quoting Vasishta Nadi Evidence: Sidereal ingress of outer planets causes major world events to occur. Examples:

Freuds first publication on sexuality, Three Essays on Sexuality, as well as Einsteins Annus Mirabillus paper on Brownian motion (Atomic theory) occurred with Plutos ingress into the sign of Gemini in 1905 First Moon walk by astronaut Neil Armstrong on 7/20/1969, came with Plutos ingress into the sign of Virgo. Black Monday stock market crash on 10/19/1987 exact ingress of Uranus into sidereal Sagittarius US entry into World War 1 on 4/6/1917 exact ingress of Uranus into the sidereal sign of Aquarius

2. Definition of Time Time is defined as the linear progression of the state of being, divided into various cycles and sub-cycles. The utility of some of these cycles, or progressions, will be demonstrated in this lecture. 3. Progressions of Time for Human Beings One year of human life is the equivalent of 1 day of the gods Manu Smriti

The Suns movement demarcates the movement of time. In the course of his regular transit the Sun moves through twelve signs of the zodiac in one year, and thus one sign of the zodiac in one month, and one degree per day. A year is thus defined as aSamvatsara, or the time taken for the Sun to transit 360 zodiacal degrees. The Suns movement at 1 degree per day is equivalent to 1 year of time, based on the above principle from Manu Smriti.. This principle is the basis of all progression and dashas systems in Vedic astrology. The Suns movement at this rate to the end of the first Naksatra Paryaya indicates the end of life for human beings. The year 120 (the full life span of humans) is reached at one degree per year progression

4. The 27 naksatras form the background of all predictive systems in Vedic astrology The 27 Nakstras are grouped into three of nine each:

First group: Aswini to the end of Aslesha (9th star): Janma Paryaya Second group: Magha (10th star) to the end of Jyeshta (18th star: Karma Paryaya; and Third group: Moola (19th star) to the end of Revati (27th star): Adhana Paryaya

The junction point between each group, or last Navamsa of water signs, and first Navamsa of fire signs, are Gandanta and indicate death. When the Sun, measured by various progression sequences, reaches the Gandanta point, then death both symbolically as well as factually occurs. 5. Dwadasamsa Progressions 2 30 per year

There are 12 signs of the zodiac, while the division of a sign into 12 subsequent parts is the basis of the Dwadasamsa chart. Progressing the Sun at a rate of one Dwadasamsa (2 30) per year, one full trek of the zodiac is the equivalent of 144 years. This is the fullest possible life term of any chart. All the planets can be progressed at the same rate, including the ascendant/descendant and MC/IC axes Progressing at this rate, the first Gandanta is achieved at age 48; the 2nd at age 96; and the final one at age 144. At age 30, all the planets progressed at this rate will form an exact inconjunct to all the natal planets. Since the full Paramayus of the Dwadasamsa progression equals 144 years, it is more appropriate for inanimate charts such as countries or corporations, as human beings are allotted 120 years maximum longevity in the current age.
