Dr. B.V. RAMAN
| V S KALYANRAMAN
Prof V S Kalyanraman writes about his experiences with Dr. B. V. Raman
W hen we are celebrat ing the centenary year of Dr Raman, my thoughts

go back to the late forties, when I had started reading the world-
famous The Astrological Magazine. I met Dr Raman, for the first time in
the fifties when he visited my professor, who was a regular contributor to
the magazine. It was through my professor my acquaintance with Dr Raman
bloomed and culminated as a lifelong friendship. When once he asked me
why I was not seriously getting involved in contributing to the cause of
astrology by writing articles, I told him that there were already numerous
eminent, erudite and excellent scholars doing that service. He said that no
learning must go waste and it is the solemn duty to dispense knowledge,
known to one, to the needy. When I tried to justify my stand by saying that
learning can shine only with modesty, he retorted with his rare smile, ‘not
always’. Imparting an abrupt parting command to me, he departed in a
hurry, to his heavenly abode.
Prior to and even after his demise, I have been with The Astrological
Magazine most often, behind the screen and I continue to be so with
Sri Niranjan Babu and his eMagazine.
Though professional compulsions distanced me from the South, I have never
missed to meet Dr Raman, occasionally or those annual astrological meets
organized by him, for which prompt intimation would arrive, wherever I was. Such meets helped to discuss
many subjects with friends like Sri P S Iyer, Sri Muthuswamy and others. A piquant feeling remains that such
efforts have become more conspicuous by their absence, these days.
He was keen to bring out an English edition of Dasaadyaayee for which he took my incomplete notes, when I
met him in Kerala. He was planning a work on Medical Astrology also. There must be many such incomplete
efforts of his, yet to see the light of the day. Those, on whom the responsibility has fallen now, must not to
spare any pains to carry forward his relentless efforts in collecting, collating and publishing his papers, to the
benefit of his multifarious admirers.

A ccording to tradition there were eighteen sages who propounded the science of astrology. Must outstanding
of them and the one who is directly responsible for the methods of Hindu astrology as they are practiced
today is Parasara.
Two classics – Suryasiddhanta dealing with the astronomical part of astrology and Parasara Hora dealing with
astrology proper – stand pre-eminent as the most authoritative treatises. According to these great classics,
astrology is the foremost limb of the Vedas and it is a “secret, pure and exalted science”. The Vedas are the
works of Rishis or the great seers: “The truths of the Rishis are the products of spiritual intuition. The Rishis
were able to discover the eternal truths by raising their life-spirits to the plane of immortality. Their utterances
are based not on transitory vision but on a continuous experience of resident-life and power. When the Vedas
are regarded as the highest authority, what is meant is that the more exacting of all authorities is the authority
of facts.” And astrology has originated from the Vedas.
Man’s existence here, says one of the disciples of the great Sage Kapila, the first evolutionist in the world, is
a mere repetition and reproduction of his other previous existences. His present existence is but a link in the
chain of eternal existences connecting the past with the future. In his each birth, he carries one step forward
the inceptive purpose of his creation to its goal and consummation, until he attains the one in which the past,
present and future are blended together and Time and Space are annihilated.
Astrology and Karma are therefore interrelated. The horoscope reveals the consequences of our actions which
we do not remember in this life and are untraceable in this birth. The result of our unknown action is what we
call ‘fate’ or “adrishta’.
Many people in the west seem to imagine that the theory of Karma is based on fatalism and predestined
necessity and that therefore it leaves no room for individual development. This is not a correct idea. According
to Hindu texts, when one dies, his soul (life-energy) which is enveloped in a subtle sheath and invested with
the sumtotal of good and bad Karma passes after some time into another plane leaving off his gross body as a
man casts off his worn-out clothes and puts on new ones. His reincarnation will then take place in a physical
body corresponding with the deeds done by him in his previous life. The processes of death and birth go on
until Moksha or Nirvana or final liberation. The Karma is the result of our actions and our actions are due to
our thoughts and hence it is man who creates his Karma for it is the product of his thought.
There are two main categories of Karma. The first is Sanchita or the accumulative or those that are lying latent
like seeds stocked up in a granary for fruition in future lives. The second is Prarabdha or operative – those whose
machinery has been set in motion towards their fruition in the present life. There is nothing that can stop the machinery
that has been set going and therefore it is the effects of the Prarabdha Karma that we are experiencing in our presents
lives. In other words, the horoscope indicates the Prarabdha portion of our Karma – being our destiny in this life.

can either strengthen or weaken their momentum in the desired direction by recourse to suitable remedial measures
prescribed in ancient astrological books.

ROGER FEDERER'S HOROSCOPE
Read about the 9 extraordinary combinations in

Wimbledon 2017 champion Roger Federer’s Horoscope
Roger Federer – Rog as known by his fans, is a global sports icon. His effortless style has won him 19 grand
slams and over a billion fans. Nike, Rolex and many others are benefitting from his iconic status and pocket
more that what Federer earns. Federer’s formula is simple – finish the game. I have been a fan myself since
my childhood. His front hand strokes, back hand returns or stylish between the leg cross court returns have
excited me every time.
Winning the Wimbledon 2017 not only gave him his 19th Grand Slam win, but also silenced the quack
astrologers who thought he had predicted his end of career. Here are 9 interesting heavenly combinations
that make him what he is – The Roger Federer.
LAGNA IS DIFFERENT FROM THE RISING SIGN

The rising sign is Leo at the time of birth. But does that become Lagna. I’ve always told my students that this is
perhaps the single biggest mistake. The Lagna is always the strongest of the rising sign, moon sign or sun sign.
In Federer’s horoscope, Cancer is occupied by Sun, Rahu and Mercury making it more powerful that the rising
sign Leo or the moon sign Libra. The entire chart will pivot around this sign and hence the Lagna is Cancer
and not Leo.

Rahu, Mercury and Sun in Cancer gives Extreme Will Power
The conjunction of Mercury and Rahu in the ascendant the second lord, will empower Federer with extreme
results in a sensitive mind which is seen in the form determination and willpower. He can fix his mind on
of frequent emotional outbursts. Rog underwent a goal and go great lengths to accomplish it. As a side
counseling in his junior years to overcome this note, the gemstones of Sun, Mercury and Rahu in
sensitive nature. However, the conjunction of Sun as a particular pattern is usually prescribed for certain
horoscopes who lack will.
Lagna Lord in Fourth House makes Federer very Adroit
The lord of the first house is Moon and he is well required for playing Tennis. He was very Adroit. A

Sun and the Moon in mutual quadrants gave Rog without afflictions, makes one expert or nimble in the

decreases based on the influences of other planets.
Aries As The Tenth House Gets Things Done
In Rog’s revised horoscope, the tenth house is Aries focus inwards and puts them to action at any given
represented by a Ram. Natives with Aries as tenth opportunity. They complete the task they set their
house have the ability to get things done. It makes them mind on irrespective of how difficult the task may be.
Mars in Punarvasu Nakshatra eliminates Road Blocks
Mars is the lord of the tenth house. Of Kshyatriya or placement of Mars in Punarvasu Nakshtra removes
warrior caste, he is in a dual sign, indicating sports as the evil effects of the twelfth house and pumps back
his career. He occupies Aries Navamsa and Punarvasu benefic results. This excellent combination has taken
Nakshatra. Punarvasu means restoring good. The Rog to great heights in his career.

Sun and Moon cause Vipareetha Dhana Yoga

As most of you know, Vastu dates back to the Vedas or the knowledge books of India that Anaadi æċĭĉĮ or
that which cannot be dated. On a safe platform, we can easily date back this science of dwellings to at least
5000 years back. Vastu is said to be a Upaveda or a minor veda and is referred to as Sthapatya Veda. We
have many classical works like Brihat Samhita, Mayamata, Manasara, Samarangana Sutradhara, Viswakarma
Prakasha, Manushyalaya Chandrika and others giving us a whole lot of material with respect to this science.
VITRUVIUS
Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, a roman architect and famously known for his books on
Architecture, is referred to as ‘world’s first known engineer’. His well known book
‘The ten books of architecture’ on which most European architecture is based on,
is translated into English by Morris Hicky Morgan. This book is said to have been
published in almost all European languages – Latin, Italian, Spanish, French, German
and English. It is interesting to note that that there are certain points of similarity
between the text book of Manasara and the treatise of Vitruvius.

Eclipses are important. The energies of eclipses manifest as new beginnings

the effects of eclipses should always be taken into serious consideration.

Solar Eclipses occur when the Moon moves in front of the Sun and the
Earth, and the light of the Sun is cut off. The solar eclipse manifests like
the new Moon. The solar eclipse affects both individuals and the broad
masses. During the solar eclipse the life force from the Sun reflecting on
us becomes weak. Since the Sun represents authority and leaderships, a
decline in public administration and chaos reigns. The reemergence of

To attain salvation, one has to take a human birth which is otherwise
impossible. This concept of salvation attracts a lot of attention in
Hindu philosophy. In our Hindu Dharma, we have four Ashramas -
Brahmacharya, Gruhastha, Vaanaprastha and Sanyasa respectively.
Gruhasthashrama is of primary importance. Here one gets the satisfaction
of one’s desires. Marriage is the stepping stone into Gruhastashrama.

First column gives the English dates and next to it the names of the regional months and dates. The ending moments of
Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana are given in the 24 hour clock extending to 30 hours.
Of the Nityayogas, Vishkumbha, Parigha, Vyatipata, Vajra, Vyaghata, Vaidhruthi, Sula, Ganda and Atiganda are generally
spurned for auspicious events and they are marked in red in the Panchanga. Vydhruti pervades from 346°40’ to 360° and
Vyatipata from 213°20’ to 226°40’ of the sum of the Nirayana longitudes of the Sun and the Moon. Vydhruti and Vyatipata
punyakaala are observed on the day when the yogas prevail for 1½ hours or more, when Sraddha is performed by the
astute. These two belong to the shannavati -96- Sraddhas ordained for a householder. Considering the astronomical
implications, the Sayana Vydhruti and Vyatipata days are also indicated in the Panchanga. The auspicious Amritayoga
and Siddhayoga and inauspicious Maranayoga and Prabalarishtayoga come under Amirtaadiyoga scheme and are different
from the Nityayogas.
The Karana is the half of the Tithi. They are mainly classified as Sthira - fixed or immovable and Chara or moveable.
The Chara Karanas are seven in number and the Sthira are only four. The fixed ones are inauspicious. They are Sakuni,
Chatushpada, Naga and Kimsatugna. The seven movable Karanas are in their order, Bava, Baalava, Kaulava, Taitila,
Gara, Vanija and Vishti (or Bhadra.) Among the movable Karanas Vishti or Bhadra is considered to be of dreadful. The
forbidden Karanas are marked in red for easy identification.
We have most of our religious observances pegged on to the Tithis. Pournamipooja Chandradarisana, Sankataharachaturthi
Vrata, Shastivrata, Ekadasi Vrata and Pradosha are specially mentioned in the Panchanga. Pournamipooja is done in the
evenings on days the full Moon is prevalent. Chandradarisana is observed on the evening on the day when the crescent
Moon appears for the first time in the west after the Amavasya. Chaturthi of the Krishnapaksha or Bahula Chaturthi of
every month is known as Sankataharachaturthi. The evenings of Sukla and Krishna Trayodasi days are specially observed
as Pradosha Vrata days.
