In this lesson we learn about what is vedāñga jyotiṣa and its scope.
Objective of the lesson is to know how big is this subject and to realize that jyotiṣa is as vast as the universe. Everything that is created finds its place in symbols and significations. Please take a printout of the slides and keep them with you while listening to this lecture so that you can make notes immediately as you go through the slides. Let me give you an example of a student who got into a detailed discussion with a pandit and later agreed with him that Muhurta is not a part of Vedic Astrology. It was a very embarrassing day for me as when someone pointed out that the student of PJC had made such a blunder, I was very sad. Please don;t make me sad. I have shared all this knowledge with the world so that you learn well and if your fundamentals are going to be weak, how can anyone help you. Listen to me and take the printout and make notes…always make written notes.
