In India "Jyotish Shastra" is very popular. It actually, refers to the traditional system of Hindu astrology in India, also known as "Vedic Astrology," which is based on the study of the positions of celestial bodies and their influence on human life, rooted in the ancient Vedic scriptures and considered one of the six auxiliary disciplines of Hinduism. The term "Jyotish" itself means "light" or "science of light" in Sanskrit.
There are always some discusion over the outcome of the jyotish shastra results. To highlight the genuinely, our scolars has put up the following lines / verses :
अप्रत्यक्षाणि शास्त्राणि विवादस्तत्र केवलं|
प्रत्यक्षं ज्योतिषं शास्त्रं चन्द्रार्को यत्र साक्षिणो||
Apratyakshaani shaastraani vivadastatra kevalam.
Pratyaksham jyotisham shastram chandraarko yatra saakshino.
Apratyakshaani = invisible.
Shaastraani = various scientific and other disciplines of knowledge.
Vivadastatra = vivaadah + tatra. Vivaad = controversy, dispute.
Tatra = there
Kevalam = only.
Pratyaksham = visible, self evident. Jyotisham = Astronomy.
Shastram = science.
Chandraarko = Chandra + Arko.
Chandra = the Moon.
Arko = the Sun.
Yatra = where.
Saakshino = eye witnesses.
In those disciplines of Science and other allied subjects, where end results of a concept are not visible or are doubtful, there is always some controversy or dispute. But in the case of Astronomy it is not so, because the Moon and the Sun act as an eye-witness to prove the correctness of the concepts.
"Jyotish Shastra" in India has two branches, the one which is most scientific and based on the movement of the Sun, Moon and other planets, as codified by our Rishis (sages) thousands of years ago through minute observations without the help of advanced instruments as available nowadays. The other branch as its off-shoot is the prediction of the future of a person by drawing a natal chart of the planets at the time of birth of a person, called a horoscope. The latter's deductions of future are always subject matter of disputes and it is not considered scientific. But in the case of Astronomy the predictions about solar and lunar eclipses and other matters are always correct, as they are based on sound scientific principles, and the Sun and Moon prove the correctness of the theory of the subject.
