My First Personal Meeting with Guru ji - 4th Aug 2003

Dear List Members,

I feel that I am very lucky and honored to have met Krushnaji in
person.

Krushnaji I would like to thank you for taking so much time despite
your busy schedule and teaching me.

I had spent three days with Krushnaji having discussions and learning
Ashtakavarga. Krushnaji has such a deep understanding of the system
and with crystal clear thoughts. I would like to share my experience
with the group.

On the first day when I visited Krushnaji, a couple had visited
Krushnaji with the chart of their son. I had realised later on it
was some big ministers relatives. The couple had created the
worksheet and had brought it with them. I sat there and saw
Krushnaji focus with deep concentration on the chart and not say a
word. After looking at the chart and the points he asked me to take
a look and answer the questions. So under the supervision of
Krushnaji I answered the question. I also learnt how specificially
Krushnaji answered the question and to the point. The couple then
asked a some more questions and Krushnaji answered them. The couple
then offered Krushnaji money but Krushnaji said to them to donate it
to charity.

Later on I learnt that a student of Krushnaji was approached by a
minister as their son was lost and Krushnajis student had faxed the
chart of the lost son. Krushnaji had made a prashna analysis using
Krushnas Ashtakavarga system and predicted that the child would be
found after 3 months on such and such date only. This he had told
his student who was in a different city. The same message was
relayed to the querist. Then after 3 months on THAT DAY ITSELF the
message was revived that the lost son was found !!! Every one had
praised Krushnajis student for predicting correctly but his sincere
student announced that it was his Guru, Krushnaji who had actually
predicted.

In another discussion I had with Krushnaji, he explained in short
that there was a huge theory behind House A,B,C and D and E. He had
received one of the highest jyotish awards in the India and also was
offerend a PhD for his system by Sri Lankan University and he was
offered to fly there and receive the honour but due to the situation
beyond his reach he was not able to go and receive the Doctorate.

For all these things I really had to ask so many questions only then
he said about all the awards and titles he had recived. Such a
humble man is Krushnaji.

Krushnaji taught me and clarified thigns that were not clear in my
mind for so long became instantly clear when he took the pen and
paper and started to explain. In next few mails I shall discuss the
same with the list members so that I can share what I have learned so
that everyone can benefit from the same.

After the second day Krushnaji had gauged my knowledge and areas
where I needed practice and some of my questions Krushnaji had told
to hold off as I was not ready as yet to proceed to that level as it
would just confuse me. He was right. He did try to demonstrate by
telling me something which I did not understand and in order to
understand things to that much depth one had to have the fundamentals
clear.

Krushnaji then explained to me that hes taught 80% of the system
already. If students focus on whats been taught so far and practice
on the same using various charts then even with whats taught one can
predict to a very accurate level.

Now whats left is going into finer details. For that Krushnaji even
uses charts upto Nadiamsa or D-150 but those are for very fine
predictions.

I also got to see Krushnaji's library of books. Let me tell you that
it would one a long long time to just go through that collection !!!

Then on the 2nd day I realised that Krushnaji had also authored a
book on timing of marriage. These books were written in Marathi. He
also was in the process of writing another book on Nadis in details
but due to lack of time he was not able to finish it.

On the second day Krushnaji took the chart of Lord Ram and he had
explained with the use of Vimshottari dasa on how events of Lord Rams
chart fitted i.e. his Marriage to Sita, his vanvas (of 14 years) and
simultaneously his fathers death, separation from his wife (kidnapped
by Ravan), birth of children in his absence reasons for being
Mahapurusha etc on how things fit exactly if one understood Houses
A,B,C,D and E and Vimshottari Dasa starting from Moon only. We had
focussed on the timing and Krushnaji had worked on Sri Ramas chart in
his book also. Since Its in Marathi and my knowledge of Marathi was
a little rustic (still is) its taking me a little longer to
understand and it also made me realise that it must have been such a
huge task for Krushnaji to teach despite language barriers to
students with different mother tongue like French, English etc and
that too a system which is Math based and does not have stories
linked to it.

I was like in awe to see all the computations that Krushnaji did in
his mind. Like based on degrees he told me that this planet is in
such and such division in the various divisional chart and such and
such is the status and such and such is the points and such and such
is the exact vimshottari antra on such and such a date... I was like
scrambling to keep with you all the sophisticated computer programs....
It made me realise that when Krushnaji said something on the list hes
done such a detailed study of the planets their status etc etc etc...

On day three I had written the list of basics that was still not very
clear in my mind and Krushnaji answered each and every question of
mine in details.

I had a train to catch and time on the train to close my eyes and
think on the amount of knowledge I had received in those 3 days.

Its overwhelming and great experience.

Thank you Krushnaji.

Cheers !!!
