R.

Dhanabalan s reply for tw853 statement given in Confusion 3 in connection with

ayanamsa.

Other Confusions
1) Among around 30 applicable ayanamsas, there is no Newcomb ayanamsa but the KP
ayanamsa using the Newcomb's annual precession rate of 50.2388475 sec per year
and the year 291 A.D of zero ayanamsa, which is available in any astrological SW
with the option of ayanansas. In the earliest book on cuspal interlinks "Princi
ples of Cuspal Interlinks by K. Baskaran, 2000, Sagar Publiations, p xvii" the
author says, "I would have to thank Shri A. R. Raichur, Mumbai, for his kind co
-operation in providing me with an excellent software, whiout which I would have
faced difficulties in confirming most of my conceptions. " Shri Raichur's SW u
ses the KP ayanamsa not the Straight Line ayanamsa used by A. Devaraj, PS Khulla
r etc. However, such difference in ayanamsa generally doesn't change the star a
nd sub, except in the borderline cases. The issue is not which ayanamsa is corre
ct but which ayanamsa gives the better results for the KP rules.
In a research, it is found that the New KPA works better than Lahiri for the KP
rules especially at the Sookshma dasa level.

1) tw853: In the earliest book on cuspal interlinks "Principles of Cuspal Interl

inks by K. Baskaran, 2000, Sagar Publiations, p xvii" the author says, "I woul
d have to thank Shri A. R. Raichur, Mumbai, for his kind co-operation in providi
ng me with an excellent software, whiout which I would have faced difficulties i
n confirming most of my conceptions. " Shri Raichur's SW uses the KP ayanamsa n
ot the Straight Line ayanamsa used by A. Devaraj, PS Khullar etc.
R.Dhanabalan: I fully agree with you.
2) tw853: The issue is not which ayanamsa is correct but which ayanamsa gives the
better results for the KP rules.

R.Dhanabalan: No one knows exactly what the k.p..rule is. Each one is thinking i
n their own way about the k.p.rules. In fact, Mr.KSK himself is not confident in
his rules and he did not follow his own rules in the examples given in the orig
inal volumes and the Readers. Stalwarts like Mr.KMS, M.P.Shanmugam, Mr.Mohan, sa
lem Vaithialingam, salem Gopal, salem Mohankumar, etc. have not followed all the
k.p.rules. Even Mr.Subramaniam and Mr.Harikaran, sons of Mr.KSK are not followi
ng all the k.p.rules. You are aware of it. When the rule itself is not clear, th
e results will be uncertain only. Hence which ayanamsa gives the better results
for the k.p.rules is ruled out.

3) tw853: However, such difference in ayanamsa generally doesn't change the star
and sub, except in the borderline cases.

R.Dhanabalan: There are 12 cusps. Due to the difference in ayanamsa, definetly t

here will be change in one or two of cuspal sublords. It will affect the predict
ion. Further, sub level is not sufficient for prediction. For twins, the first c
uspal sublord may be the same. Only the sub sub lord will tell the physical feat
ures of the twins. Hence we need an accurate, reliable ayanamsa.
4) tw853: In a research, it is found that the New KPA works better than Lahiri fo
r the KP rules especially at the Sookshma dasa level.

R.Dhanabalan: The KSK group has not done any research. They are doing research h
ow to improve the sales of books. They are doing research how to confuse the ast
rologers. They have not even done any research on western aspect. No research on
Rahu/Ketu. There was no improvement in k.p. from 1966. As already said in para
2, when there are no concrete rules in k.p., how is it possible to say that the N
ew KPA works better than Lahari for the KP rules especially at the Sookshma dasa
level .

5) tw853: Even the KP critics are not doubtful his authorship of the KP Readers,
appraising his research work and mastering of his Padhdhati by giving lectures n
ot only in India but also in Malaysia and Sri Lanka.

R.Dhanabalan: Only the persons who studied thoroughly about the k.p. system and
other systems can give correct comments about k.p. The said KP critics might not
be expert in astrology.

6) After having started reading the a strological books from July 1927, doing th
e research on the practical horoscopes from 1934, with the assistants from 1939,
Guruji KSK found the method of the Krishnamurti Padhdhati in 1951 by Divine Gra
ce and in 1958 he met Dr. B.V. Raman and explained his Padhdhati. He published t
he first issue of the Astrology & Athrishta magazine on March 20, 1963, the Kris
hnamurti Padhdhati, Vol. 1 & 2 in late 1966 by Sagar Publications and then the K
P Readers I to VI in 1970-71 in his life time by Mahabala Publishers, Hariman Pu
blications.

R.Dhanabalan: Mr.KSK published one book on astrology in tamil Jyothidam vinganam d

uring the year 1958. That book deals only vedic astrology. No word about sublord
in that book. He explained how to cast Navamsa. During 1958, Mr.KSK might have
taken the research work of Meena Rao and would have been explained to Mr.B.V.Ram
an in a different way. The so called research on sublord could have been started
during 1958 and developed to Krishnamoorthy Padadhati during 1965/1966. There w
as no improvement or research in the k.p.system from 1966 to till date. The Read
ers I to VI were not written by Mr.KSK. In the name of Mr.KSK, some other person
have written it. The words used and the language style differs from original k.
p. Just because the Readers were published in his time, we cannot presume that
Mr.KSK only has written it. Mr.KSK also a commercial man. He sold his so called
invention to sagar publications. Again he copied those items in the Readers and
sold. To avoid copy right problem, he introduced the sub s star theory is the fact
. He has not arrived the Sub s star theory by research. Nowhere in the Readers tol
d about the research. He did not prove that the system in the Readers are superi
or than in the original volumes.

the KP ayanamsa using the Newcomb's annual precession rate of 50.2388475 sec per

R.Dhanabalan:
a) Please refer the ayanamsa table given by Mr.C.G.Rajan in pages 265,266 and 26
7 in the book Jataka kanitham part I (tamil), edition 2002. It was originally publ
ished during the year 1940. Whereas, Mr.KSK has started the research on sublord
during 1958. Please refer the ayanamsa given by Mr.KSK in the pages 140 and 141
of volume I. Compare both.

year
C.G.Rajan ayanamsa
KSK ayanamsa
1840
21-29
21-31
1900
22-20
22-22
1954
23-05
23-07
2000
23-44
23-46

b) The year of starting for both the tables are 1840. The year of ending for C.G
.Rajan is 2000 and KSK is 2001. Almost no difference. Why Mr.KSK also started th
e table in the year 1840, why not at 1800 or 1850. What is the significance of 1
840. Why Mr.KSK closed the table at 2001. Why not he closed in 1990 or 2010. Mr.
KSK has just added two minutes in addition to C.G.Rajan ayanamsa every year. The
two minute difference in ayanamsa would not make much difference. Even now you
are telling that a difference of five minutes in ayanamsa will not give much dif
ference.
c) Vasan panchangam was using C.G.Rajan ayanamsa till 2000. Now they have switch
ed over to Lahari which is closer to KP straightline ayanamsa. If KSK is alive,
he would have swithched over to Lahari. Mr.KSK is expert in copying. He almost c
opied everything and published as his padadhati. So also ayanamsa.

d) It is evident that Mr.KSK used the ayanamsa formula of C.G.Rajan. We have to

verify whether C.G.Rajan was using the Newcombe formula. Only Newcombe has to te
ll how to use his precission rate and the starting year and the formula to calcu
late the ayanamsa every year. Mr..KSK and Mr.Balachandran are not the authorize
d persons to derive a formula of Newcombe. Mr.KSK published some ayanamsa which
is closer to C.G.Rajan's ayanamsa and claimed as his ayanamsa is the fact.
