Ascetic Yogas the PATH of SELF-REALIZATION Robert Koch Robert Koch Was Initiated As Sri Patraka Das at the Lotus Feet of H.H
Sri Jagannath Vedic Center, USA Drig dasa August 23, 2002 Ukiah, USA © Robert Koch, 2002 – Published in Jyotish Digest 1 Ascetic Yogas THE PATH OF SELF-REALIZATION Robert Koch Robert Koch was initiated as Sri Patraka Das at the lotus feet of H.H. Sri Srimad A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada in March, 1971. He lived in India for 6 years till 1983, studying Jyotish and has received certificate of commendation for spreading Hindu astrology in the USA, from the Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, in 1999. Web site: http://www.robertkoch.com n the first Canto of the great Vedic Purana Srimad Bhagavatam, there is a very interesting and instructional conversation that took place between a bull personifying I Dharma, or religion, and Bhumi, the mother earth in the form of a cow. The bull was standing on one leg, suggesting that that one out of four pillars of religious principles (represented by each leg of Dharma, the bull) was still existing, and that in itself was faltering with the progress of Kali-yuga. The four legs of the Dharma are truthfulness, cleanliness, mercy, and austerity. If most or all of these legs of Dharma are broken, or if 3 out of 4 Dharmic principles exist very rarely, in human society, then we can be confident that Kali-yuga – the age of quarrel and darkness – is well upon us. Given that there are some rare souls existing who speak and live the Supreme Absolute Truth, as is found in various Vedic literatures, the remaining leg of truthfulness still exists. Such persons are characterized by complete self-control, or the ability to detach themselves from the relative world of the senses and the objects of sense pleasure. -

As per Ayurveda year is divided into six seasons, in which three season Shishira, Vasanta and Greeshma are known as Aadanakala . Other three seasons Varsha, Sharad and Hemanta are said to be Visargakala. In Visarga kala, as the Sun is located in southwards position, its heat reduces or slows down due to the effect of time and its position with respect to the Earth, wind, cloud and rain. The power of the Moon is predominant. Rainwater decreases the heating effect of nature. All of these lead to the predominance of non- dryunctuous, amla (sour), lavana (salty), and madhura (sweet) rasa respectively and step by step rise of body strength in human beings during these three seasons. Out of all the Ritus, Hemanta Ritu is a unique Ritu in terms of having uttam bala. -

Planetary Positions and Their Effects in the Year 2010
PLANETARY POSITIONS AND THEIR EFFECTS IN THE YEAR 2010 YOUR CAREER IN 2010 FINANCIAL PROSPECTS IN 2010 RELATIONSHIPS IN 2010 Each sign has its own property. Thus every individual born in a sign will possess a number of common and vital qualities. The Ascendant in Aries is the most inclined to accidents whereas Virgo is least apt to accidents. This is due to the surplus nervous energy of the Aries lagna native and his incapability to manage it correctly. Likewise Pisces lagna native is also likely to accidents. Pisces being represented by the two faced fish cannot take quick decisions because of their weak reflex action. The Virgo lagna native is more careful and will always think twice ahead of starting action. Libra natives are well-adjusted and so they are not usually given to accidents. Normally the natives with Ascendants in the fixed signs of Aquarius, Leo and Taurus are less inclined to accidents. They are not fond of modifications, carrying out tests and consequently they stick to a fixed routine, which is the probable reason. The sign inhabited by the Sun has a significant role in ascertaining the energy of the native. If the energy is high, the power to recover is also high and the damage incurred will be less. Sun is a very hot and a fierce planet. It is at ease when it resides in similar signs. But when it resides in Watery signs like Scorpio, Pisces and Cancer, it will not be at ease and thus will trigger accidents. In the same way, when Sun inhabits Capricorn and Sagittarius, the fierce nature becomes centered and reduced to a specific location and this safeguards the individual. -

The Concept of Creating and Regulating Time in Vedic Ritual the Concept of Creating and Regulating Time in Vedic Ritual
The concept of creating and regulating time in vedic ritual The Concept of Creating And Regulating Time In Vedic Ritual Maitreyee Deshpande Maitreyee Deshpande, Department of Sanskrit, University of Pune, Pune - 411 007, Maharashtra Time is an important factor that governs the life of man. Numerous speculations have been put forth by various thinkers about ‘time’. These speculations are based upon numerous philosophical systems. ‘Time’ is interpreted differently by a Physicist as compared to an Archaeologist or even a Philosopher. Thus attempts have been made in each field to interpret and understand this very important factor. They all interpret time according to their Weltanschauung. There also have been numerous theories about the creation of time. In this paper an effort is made to show how time could be created and regulated with the help of vedic rituals. Time is often accepted to be created by Prajaapati by many ritual texts. Shatapatha Braahmana (S B) (XI.1.6.12ff) explains the two terms samvatsara and prajaapati. It says Prajaapati created the deities and he thought that he had obtained everything (atsaarisham). Therefore he became sarvatsara, which is doubtless the same as samvatsara. Also there are four syllables in the word ‘samvatsara’ as well as in the word ‘prajaapati’. Therefore samvatsara is the image of Prajaapati. (S B) (VI.1.2.18), while referring to the creation of the year, says that Prajaapati who became relaxed is the year, and his five bodily parts too became relaxed and they are the seasons in a year. In (SB) (XI.1.6.1ff), regarding the creation of seasons by Prajaapati, we read as follows : In the beginning there was water. -

Calculating Percentages for Time Spent During Day, Week, Month
Calculating Percentages of Time Spent on Job Responsibilities Instructions for calculating time spent during day, week, month and year This is designed to help you calculate percentages of time that you perform various duties/tasks. The figures in the following tables are based on a standard 40 hour work week, 174 hour work month, and 2088 hour work year. If a recurring duty is performed weekly and takes the same amount of time each week, the percentage of the job that this duty represents may be calculated by dividing the number of hours spent on the duty by 40. For example, a two-hour daily duty represents the following percentage of the job: 2 hours x 5 days/week = 10 total weekly hours 10 hours / 40 hours in the week = .25 = 25% of the job. If a duty is not performed every week, it might be more accurate to estimate the percentage by considering the amount of time spent on the duty each month. For example, a monthly report that takes 4 hours to complete represents the following percentage of the job: 4/174 = .023 = 2.3%. Some duties are performed only certain times of the year. For example, budget planning for the coming fiscal year may take a week and a half (60 hours) and is a major task, but this work is performed one time a year. To calculate the percentage for this type of duty, estimate the total number of hours spent during the year and divide by 2088. This budget planning represents the following percentage of the job: 60/2088 = .0287 = 2.87%. -
