[astrostudents] Re: Ashok ji; why study astrology?



Respected Goel ji,

"Lalkitab is the part of that vast literature which was refereed to in BPHS ( A DOCUMENT AUTHORED IN 1800
>       BC). I do not know how that knowledge came to us through  sage Pt. Roopchand ji. He has revealed this     unique document to us but never claimed its authorship. He had passed these books to his disciples
> free of cost .
"

I request you to please clarify the above, the message i am getting is, that LK was there long before Pt. ji was born. If you have more information/knowledge on this, then kindly share with us.

Sincerely
Jitin syal

But it is not true, It was a regard by Pt. Roopchand Ji for Sh. Girdhari Lal Ji. That is why Pt.Roopchand JI didnt mentioned himself as auther of this book.
> This truth was unveiled by some predecessors of that age of society & all of us bow our head to this truth & agree with it, even most of them unveiled another truth that this knowledge of Lalkitab was spoken by some super divine powers to Pt.Roop Chand Ji. This truth or fact also accepted by each devotee of Lalkitab including me also. Pt.Roopchand ji left whole credit for Pt.Girdhari Lal ji as honour & finally the Lalkitab published at the name of Girdhari Lal Ji.
> I mean to explain that evidences of original written materials of Lalkitab do not certify Pt. Roopchand ji as real author of Lalkitab, but it is universal truth that only Pt. Roopchand Ji were real author & this truth is beleivable bcoz our predecessors were live witness about this fact & some of those predecessors are today also with us , like Sh. Rajinder Bhatia ji and some more. Same thoughts are in the case of vedas & Astro shastra of mine.So i ended my previous mail with the words of sum up this issue without any discussion.I think - now im succeeded to explain my views.
