At the risk of mixing too many metaphors, my watch predicts when the sun will rise. Where is the connection? Is my watch causing the sun to rise. Is the sun causing my watch to tick? No, Yet you insist on only looking for a causative model. A point Judy I think was making -- many things can be correlated and useful for predictive purposes but have no causal effect, A on B or B on A. The watch is correlated with the rising of the sun -- but hardly causes it. In a somewhat parallel way, the "clock" in the planets don't in ANY way create our karma. We do that. (or did it). The emergence of events in our lives, something we created, may be correlated to various clocks. Its not really such a hard concept. its amusing ow insistent you appear in critiquing a totally bogus concept, and claiming you are critiquing (actual) jyotish -- or at least the one I am familiar with. >
