SUPER HUMAN POWERS OF MANKIND

     We might have heard of human powers like telepathy, clairvoyance etc. which are simple and common among the most of the saints particularly from India. Telepathy is the ability between two saints to talk to each other by mental powers irrespective of distance. It is equivalent to talking through telephone in this materialistic world. Also clairvoyance is the ability to look into the past and future of life of anybody by the power of mind. A clairvoyant can also look into the past, present and future events of this physical world. This is almost like television of the physical and scientific world. These are just simple powers of mankind. Besides these there are supreme powers hidden in human beings.
     In ancient days of India, most of the saints were very fond of learning several secrets of our lives. They fully know that these can be achieved by great tapas (meditation). They used to spend their lives in great mountains like Himalayas, duly meditating most of their life time. Accordingly they achieved great powers. They got the ability to live without food. They were capable of leaving their body and reenter it whenever they want, duly preserving the body from  decaying. They got the ability even to enter any dead body of a human being in condition (free from decay). Not only that, but they could even enter  the corpse of a dead animal duly giving it life and reenter their own body later on.
     There is no end to their life span. They can leave their body whenever they want. They have come out of planetary control. Planets cannot rule them. They are independent. They can control their own circumstances. The following example gives an indication of their achievements. (From the book Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda.).
     "The Northern Himalaya crags near Badrinarayan are still blessed by the living presence of Babaji, guru of Lahiri Mahasaya. The secluded master has retained his physical form for centuries, perhaps for millenniums.The deathless Babaji is an avatara."
     One of the most powerful techniques of practicing these powers is currently known as 'Kriya Yoga'. This is an ancient science, that was lost in the dark ages. Babaji rediscovered it and renamed it as 'Kriya Yoga'. The same seems to be followed by Patanjali, St. John, St. Paul and other disciples. Kriya Yoga is the union (yoga) with the infinite through a certain action or rite (kriya). A yogi who faithfully practices the technique is gradually freed from karma or the lawful chain of cause-effect equilibriums. ( For details the book "Autobiography of a yogi" as mentioned already may please be referred).
     Materialistic world is going ahead with the discovery of sub atomic particle Higgs Boson,named after British scientist Peter Higgs and Indian scientist S. N. Bose. The sub atomic particle Higgs Boson is responsible for mass in the atom. The discovery may lead to creation of matter without mass, indirectly a matter that cannot be pulled by gravity (not coming under the influence of gravitational pull of other matter of mass). This may result in movement of massless matter almost at the velosity of light, if such massless matter is produced ( may be theoretically possible). Perhaps the flying saucers are devoid of the sub atomic particles 'Higgs Boson', as they seem to be not coming under the gravitational pull of Earth and are moving at tremendous speed.
     The spiritual world is not having any mass. Light rays and other cosmic rays  have no mass. They are common both in the physical world as well as spiritual world. The human body consists of physical body , astral body besides other forms .Soon after death human soul leaves the physical body and enters the spiritual world with astral body and other forms, which have no mass . Discovery of sub atomic particle 'The Higgs Boson' may result in closing in with the spiritual world. The advice of Saints who are well acquainted with Kriya Yoga may be useful in this regard.
     The discovery of sub atomic particle 'Higgs Boson' may lead to greater understanding of gravity, dark matter, dark energy, antimatter etc.

THE GHOST

A ghost is generally the spirit of a dead person. But the word ghost is more commonly used as an evil spirit. It possesses an astral body. Soon after death, the spirit leaves the physical body, but continues with astral body. It takes some time to detach itself from the bonds of this materialistic world. Those spirits which can detach itself from the bonds of this world can take any form of their previous births. Some spirits may find it difficult to get themselves detached from the bonds of this world. Those who die with great intensity of thought (such as a murdered person with high revengeful feelings) may find it difficult from detachment of this world. They live as ghosts with revengeful feelings. They can attack any human being to satisfy their revengeful thoughts at the time of death. According to some Indian saints, the spirits of a dead person take light ray as vehicle and move in straight lines. But the movement of evil spirits is restricted. It is a common fact that the ghosts move in straight lines. These are known as ghost paths. Whenever these straight lines intercept a house, there is every possibility that house may become a haunted house. Suppose a family living in a haunted house vacates it and goes to a new house, and ghost also follows them to that house, then the line joining the two houses becomes a ghost path. In such case it is better to vacate that house also and select a new house not falling on the line joining the previous two houses, and considerably away from the ghost path. If a ghost path intercepts a roadway, it is often found the presence of a ghost at that point. And many accidents also occur at that point. If a ghost path runs along a road, ghosts are generally found all along the road. Besides ghost paths there are some individual isolated locations of ghosts. These are also associated with some murdered persons as well as suicides. Suppose a murdered person shouts before death, the same voices are getting repeated at the same time on every day , particularly if it is night. This is a phenomena of repetition. So also if some tombs of a dead persons are destroyed, it results in generation of evil by ghosts, if the ghost is of evil nature. Generation of evil power of a ghost is due to the thought force generated at the time of death. Hence the evil power of a ghost applied on any human being can be nullified with proper thought power and meditation. We have seen that some prayers of certain divine persons expel the ghosts either from a haunted house or from a human body occupied by a ghost. This is a phenomena of thought power only. One should not be afraid of a ghost if he happens to see a ghost. Due to fear our thought power becomes weakened and the ghost can take advantage of it. If you are not afraid of a ghost, ghosts cannot do any harm to you. Proper understanding concentration and meditation can strengthen once own mind from any stage of weakness.
     Ghosts are mostly connected to murder, disappointment in love, family tragedy etc. that is linked to great emotions at the time of death. Ghosts often repeat the same action, as such some believe that the actions of a ghost are only a past actions replayed again by some strange unknown phenomena.
     The light ray is oblivious to mass. The ghost or any spirit has no mass. Besides light ray there are other rays of very short wave lengths that have no mass  and even pass through solid matter. Ghosts or any spirit may take these rays as vehicles and even pass through solid matter. A ghost or a spirit may take any shape such as flower ,tree or any form of previous births. It can reduce itself to infinitesimal size and move along any cosmic rays which have no mass just like ghost itself. But the movement of evil ghosts is considerably reduced due to its unavoidable attachment to this world, whereas good souls can move freely.
     Even among the ghosts there are varieties, Some ghosts appear in person to create psycological fear. Some do not appear but they create lot of noices and throw things with considerable force or even start fires or attack people. These are known as poltergeists. some occupy the body of others and takes over the mind of a living human being and performs all heinous acts through the person it occupies. This phenomena is known as pessession. Ghost cannot occupy any body. Only some mediumistic persons are subjected to this possession. Some consider this as a mental illhealth only.
     Not only the spirits of the dead, but also the demons and angles exist in the spiritual world. The demons are evil and are usually associated with ghosts and assist them in doing evil. The angles on the other hand do good to good dead souls. They at times even act as spirit guides.
     There is an art of raising the ghosts or demons by magic to get profit by them. This art is known as necromancy. This is mainly an evil art directed to do harm to any desired person after getting financial benifits from his opponents. Ancient India was famous in this art known as Chatabadi or killing a person by raising a ghost or a demon (devil) and directing it to kill a specified person. There were seperate streets in Indian big cities, where such persons lived. But this art is dangerous and may even misfire against the person who performed it, in case the demon fails to kill the person directed due to any strong reasons, it may turn back and even kill the person who raised him.
     There are ways to protect from the evil of such raised ghosts or demons. These evil spirits are weak in the presence of light. Or they are strong in darkness. If there is any suspicion of ghost attack it is better to sleep in a white washed room with tube lights in on position. For those who practise meditation and develop strength of mind and concentration by practicing black spot gazing or crystal gazing, these evil forces cannot do anything. As an alternative, the person who raised them will be in trouble. Ghosts can attack a person in sleep more easily usually between 12 midnight and 3 a.m., if the mind of the person is weak. Developing strength of mind is essential to be free from ghost attacks.
     In short, most important factor to safe guard ourselves against any probable ghost attacks is strength of mind. There are many books on how to develop strength of mind.
     Most of us might have momentarily experienced a presence of a spirit of a dead person or persons from the astral world just before awakening state from sleep. We are possessing not only physical body but also astral body besides other forms. It may be due to the interaction of our astral body with the beings of the astral world, we often see astral beings (spirits of dead persons) just before awakening state from sleep. This is only a momentary glimpse. If we have to look into the astral world our sixth sense should be developed. Skeptics do not agree to this phenomena. They attribute such visions to the extension of dream phenomena. In this case we have to review the entire situation. There are many things unknown than the known things scientifically. Every situation at the present knowledge cannot be proved scientifically. For most of the paranormal situations we have to depend on saints who develop great powers of mind. The facts I have given above are approved by the Indian Saints.
CAUTION TO THOSE WITH TENDENCY TO SUICIDE
      Suicide is definitely not an escape from the disappointment and worry of this world. Those who commit suicide generally carry with them intensive feeling with them at the time of death. Therefore they cannot escape from the feelings of attachment to this world. As a result they may have to remain as ghost with
the feelings of disappointment and worry at the time of death. They may not be able to enter the spiritual world fully and take rebirth at the right time. They may remain as ghosts for a long time until they can find a way of detachment of the feelings of this world. Hence committing suicide is highly not desirable. There are ways of escaping from suicide.
WAYS TO COUNTER FEELINGS OF SUICIDE.
     Feeling to commit suicide is just a thought only. It can be nullified by thought force. It is very simple. Even if you meditate any sentence repeatedly at a fast rate, it can overlap the thoughts of disappointment and those worried thoughts  will escape deep into the subconscious mind  and you will be relieved. Such repetitions gradually nullify total disappointment and you will be replaced by fresh positive, optimistic thoughts. A general sentence like 'Day by day in every way I am getting better and better'  is preferable. Or any suitable sentence to counter your worry is more desirable. This is a well established fact. Such repetitions can even cure unknown bodily diseases. Avoiding thoughts of suicide are in our hands. We can easily nullify thoughts of suicide. Just meditate for five minutes as fast as you can with concentration and see its effects. You feel greatly relaxed. Repetitions will add to greater relief.
     All religious prayers work, because the ultimate reduction of any prayer is generation of thought force and thought force is the operating system of human life. If you are religious, meditate with a suitable sentence depending on your belief and faith, to lessen worry. It will definitely work. Long and lengthy prayers may not work as they lack concentration.
     power of thought is a well established fact, and we have to utilize it for our benefit.

RUMOURS OF 21-05-2011

There are some imaginary strange rumours about the destruction of the planet Earth starting from 21-05-2011, due to earth quakes , sunamies etc. Several T V Channels are also busy indicating the same. They are indicating some religious prophesies in support.
No religious prophesy is specific on this date. some religions only give some imaginary information regarding the end of the world without giving any specific time. Earth quakes and sunamies are only natural phenamenae and does not indicate the end of the world. Those who are highly religious, misunderstand this natural phenamenae to some doom as predicted in their religion.
Some are of the opinion that some planets in the sky form close conjuction resulting in some great gravitational pull on Earth causing damage and destruction to Earth. There is no such great phenamena. Only planets Mercury, Venus and Mars come within a degree forming conjuction in the sign Taurus as per sayana system. This cannot produce any bad effect on Earth. The Earth has witnessed many greater gravitational pulls without any damage. So there is no need to worry about rumours.

JOURNEY INTO THE UNIVERSE

There are several theories on the future journey into the universe. But none of them look to be sound. There are some planets rotating around some other stars, where life seems to be possible, due to similar conditions as on earth. But they are very far away, and at the present technology, journey to such planets is not a possibility. The distance of the nearest star is about 4.5 light years. A light year is the distance a light ray can travel in one year at the rate of 300,000 k. m. per second. The distance from one end to other end of our own galaxy (Milkyway) is about 100,000 light years. And there are numerous galaxies in the universe and the universe is still expanding. As such Journey to planets of other stars is a remote chance as on today.
It is also observed that some aliens from outer space are visiting our planet several times by flying saucers since a long time. But the same is not confirmed yet. If they are coming from outer space, one day or other, humans also may go to planets of other stars after developing technology. But it seems to be a remote chance as on now.
Accoding to some Indian saints, after death on this planet, soul takes light ray as vehicle and travels into the universe at will. In the ancient India, some saints (maharshis) used to leave thier bodies, and used to travel into the universe as they please and return to their bodies at a suitable time, duly preserving their bodies against decomposition by their power.
If that is true, some technology has to be developed, where the soul has to be seperated from body, duly preserving the body from decomposition for a long time giving scope for the soul for reentering the body, after travelling into the universe and collecting secrets of the universe. But such possibility is also seems to be a remote chance. If the soul takes light ray as vehicle and travels into the universe, what happens if it travels by the side of a black hole which is capable of obsorbing the light ray itself. Is the soul also gets imprisoned in the black hole?. Can the black be called as hell, as the movement of light as well as that of soul are restricted?
As an alternative, some technology should be developed by means of which souls of the dead may be appraoched to know the secrets of the universe upto their knowlwdge. It means simply finding a way of connecting this world with the spiritual world.
There are theories on time machines that can travel either into past or into future. Also some think of developing space ships, that can travel at tremendous speed duly utilising the gravitational pull of planets and stars and can reach other living worlds. But at present, it is only a fiction.

OATH TAKING HOROSCOPE OF C. M. ON 25-11-2010

The Chief Minister of A.P. Sri Kiran Kumar Reddy took oath as C. M. on 25-11-2010 at about 12.14 p.m. at Hyderabad. The horoscope of the moment give some clear indications ahead.
The most important planet in his chart is Sun. It is directly overhead and unafflicted and well placed in the sign Sagittarious, is an indication that he will be honoured by high command and can get immediate necessary help of any kind he desires.
Another important planet is the Neptune which is rising at the moment and is also unafflicted. Moreover it is in good aspect with the planet Venus, indicating its natural evil is nullified. Its possition gives correct anticipation and suitable counter actions in time.
There is a conjunction aspect of planets Mercury and Mars in the 10 th house. This can lead to impulsive actions resulting in more enemies. He has to exercise more self control under such circumstances that lead to impulsive actions.
Another most important aspect is the conjunction aspect of the planets Jupitor and Uranus in the second house which rules finances and the feelings of public. Uranus is the planet of revolutions and the Jupitor is the planet of finances. It is a bad aspect in the finance house. It will result in revolutions and great financial losses to the Government. The effect of this conjunction will come into force in the first week of January 2011, when transiting Jupitor joins the moment position of Uranus, and also the transiting position of Uranus both in the first week of January 2011. General circumstances are also heading towards the same tendencies and its indications are also clear from the horoscope. These disturbances are likely to continue for a considerable time.
However, the general indications show that he can manage with the critical situations with the full support of the high command.

ALLAHABAD HIGH COURT JUDGEMENT ON BABRI MASJID ISSUE

The day selected for the purpose of judgement on the issue of Babri Masjid is not auspicious. It is within a degree of the conjuction of the planet Saturn and Sun. In the progressed horoscope of independence day, the progressed Saturn is heading towards the radix (natal) Sun. The present bad aspect supports this evil ahead.
This indicates lot of disturbances all over India in the near future. Government has to exercise great caution and great security in anticipation.

APNA CIRCLE WIDGET

HORSE RACING

PICKING WINNERS IN HORSE RACING – GUIDELINES
( The following guidelines are applicable when the horses are allowed to run on merit. By observation about 40% races are run on merit. There is need to study the psycology of racing. Even among the above said balance of 60% most of the horses are among the first four of the horses as per calculations under the guidelines. Guide lines are approximate and are supposed to be near accuracy and should not be taken for granted as accurate.)
While studying performance of any horse, select as many races of previous performances as possible at least upto previous one year. At times even the 5th or 6th places of the horse gives faster timings. So select a suitable race book that gives many performances. At a glance select one or two races wherein the timings seem to be fast, for the purpose of further calculation.
PLACEMENT TIMINGS:
Most of the books give the placement timings. Take it as it is. If not given, calculate the place timings from the winner timings and the distance of the horse from the winner in lengths. One length is = 0.2 seconds. For example if the horse place is 3 lengths away from the winner add 3x0.2=0.6 seconds to the winners timings. If the winner timing is 1m 39.8 sec. for the race distance of 1600 metres, the placement timing of the horse under consideration is 1m 39.8 sec. + 0.6 sec. = 1m 40.4 seconds.
WEIGHT CORRECTION:
For this purpose, we must know how many kgs (excess or less) are needed to arrive at a difference of one length (excess or less) in a fixed distance. The following table gives as guideline for the same.
1000m 1100 1200 1400 1600 1800 2000 2200 2400 2600 2800 3000m
3.1kgs 2.8 2.6 2.2 2.0 1.7 1.6 1.4 1.3 1.2 1.1 1.0kg. Respectpvely
Suppose as per placement timings the horse timing is 1m 40.4 seconds when it carried a weight of 55 kgs., as in a selected previous race, and the horse is now carrying 60kgs as handicap weight, the following are the calculations. As per the above table one length accounts for 2 kgs of weight in a distance of 1600m. Now there is a difference of 5 kgs. Corresponding equivalent lengths = 5/2=2.5 lengths or 2.5x0.2 sec. =0.5 sec. (as 1 length= 0.2 sec.). So its timing with 60 kgs weight should be 1m 40.4 +0.5 secs. = 1m 40.9 seconds.
FALSE RAILS CORRCTION:
For the sake of uniformity and convenience, we have to convert this false rails effect into no false rails condition. For this purpose, the false rails on the curve portion is more effective. Every meter of false rails will increase the length by 3 m (more exactly by 3.14 m) or one length (0.2sec.). If there is 2m false rails in the curve the increase in time is 2x3x0.2/2.4 lenths = 0.5 seconds (since one length=2.4 meters and one length = 0.2 sec.) . Usually the curve is between 1000m mark and 400m mark.  As an example if in the previous race considered, the false rails in the curve is 2m, then the correction for no false rails condition is – 0.5 sec. as above.Therefore including placement and correction , it becomes 1m 40.9-0.5 sec.= 1m 40.4 seconds for no false rails condition. If there are two curves the correction for the second crve is 1m 40.4.0.5=1m 39.9sec. For longer  distances like 2800m and more there is need of correction for two curves, if there are false rails in the other curve also. In such case the corection will be double (2x0.5=1.0 seconds)for both curves). Correction to false rails along the straight portion is not required if the false rails width is less than that in the curve. If the width of false rails along the straight portion is more than that of curve, correction is required for every 2.4m extra on either side at the rate of one length or 0.2 x2=0.4 on either side of straight lengthseconds per each extra false false rails. However this can be neglected as it is small. In case the distances are measured along the false rails, there is no need for corrections due to false rails. But since the false rails are not uniform from race to race it is always preferable to correct the timings to no false rails condition duly applying the above corrections. 
CORRECTION DUE TO PENETROMETER READING:
To arrive at this correction, one has to fix a suitable penetrometer reading for the race day and race station and convert the effect of other penetrometer readings of races considered for calculation to this fixed penetrometer reading. A fixed reading of 2.0 is preferable for races at Mumbai and Pune. A reading of 3.0, 3.5 may be preferred at Mysore. 3.0, 3.5, or 4.0 may be preferred at Bangalore and Hyderabad depending on the seasons. This reading may approximately represent the average penetrometer readings of the races under consideration for calculation, to reduce possible error if any. The following table may please be referred, for distance versus correction in time for every 0.1cm. difference in penetrometer reading.
Distance 1000m 1100 1200 1400 1600 1800 2000 2200 2400 2600 2800 3000m
Correction 0.10sec. 0.11 0.12 0.14 0.16 0.18 0.20 0.22 0.24 0.26 0.28 0.30 sec. respectively.
Suppose in the example race under consideration, (1600m), if the penetrometer reading is 3.0 cms., and its effect has to be transferred to any fixed penetrometer reading, say 3.5 cms.,, the actual value in seconds is to be added (as the ground becomes slow and time increases as the penetrometer reading increases) to 1m 39.9 secs., as already calculated. The correction is (3.5-3.0)x(1/0.1)x0.16 = 0.8sec. Hence the corrected timing after applying penetrometer reading correction is 1m 39.9 sec. + 0.8 sec = 1m 40.7 secs.
If a horse at Mumbai (say penetrometer reading at Mumbai as 2.0 cms.) runs at Bangalore, 3.5cms. being the fixed penetrometer reading under consideration, the distance being 1600m, the effect of change in time to be added only as correction to difference in penetrometer reading is (3.5-2.0)x(1/0.1)x0.16 = 2.40 seconds. Penetrometer reading may be considered reliable upto the reading of 5.5 cms. Beyond this, the ground is considerably soft, and the horses run with a slow pace at the initial stage, resulting in slow timings. In such cases, it is better to go far another race with penetrometer reading of less than 5.5 cms., for the purpose of calculation.

CORRECTION DUE TO MEASURING DISTANCES ALONG FALSE RAILS:
If the distances are measured along the false rails, there is no need of applying correction due to false rails. But some other opposite correction becomes necessary. Roadometer is used to measure the distances on cement roads and B.T. roads. It is not suitable for measuring the distances on the race track. It is highly objectionable. Roadometer can even measure along the small curves of undulations resulting from the impressions of the legs of the horses. As a result the measured distance will become less than the actual distance. If the measurement has to be done it should be with a measuring chain, but not with roadometer. The following table gives approximate reduction in the distance.
Distance 1000m 1100 1200 1400 1600 1800 2000 2200 2400 2600 2800 3000m
Reduction 10m 11 12 14 16 18 20 22 24 26 28 30m respectively
In a distance of 1600m if measured along the false rails , a distance of 16 metres is reduced and the actual distance becomes 1584m, whereas under the condition of no false rails the distance remains 1600m., and if not measured the distance is more than 1600m. In the example considered, if the distance is measured along false rails, the timing has to be corrected to no false rails condition. The timing with placement correction + weight correction + penetrometer reading correction is 1m 39.8sec +0.6sec +0.5sec + 0.8sec = 1m 41.7sec. Correction due to measuring along false rails is 16m=5 lengths approximately ( 1 length is 3 metres roughly) = 5x0.2sec. = 1.0 sec. So the corrected timing is 1m 41.7sec. +1.0 sec. =1m 42.7 seconds. This is for one selected race. Like that one or two other close timing races may be selected for the previous runs of the same horse and the timing as explained may be worked out. The fastest (lowest) of all the timings may be selected to represent the stamina of the horse. Similar calculations are to be done for all the horses in a race for a fixed penetrometer reading. Out of all, the horse with the fastest timing is the likely winner, provided there is no mischief and the races are run on merit only.
PROPORTIONATE TIMINGS IN DIFFERENT DISTANCES:
(Applicable on plane and level race tracks only, not applicable on sloped race tracks. By observation it is applicable at Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore and Hyderabad and not applicable at Kolkota, Ooty and Mysore)
Suppose a race on a day is for 1600m and a horse running in the race has not run previously in the distance 1600m, but it has run only 1400m. Now the worked out timing as per above said calculations for 1400m has to be converted to 1600m proportionately with some correction for additional stamina as the distance is increased by 200m.. If the worked out timing for 1400m is 1m 31.0sec. (91 secnds), the proportionate timing for 1600m is (91/1400)x1600 = 104 secs., or 1m 44.0 seconds. An additional timing of 0.5 seconds may be added as stamina correction. So the calculated time becomes 1m 44.0 secs., + 0.5sec. = 1m 44.5secs. If the 1400m timing is to be converted into 1200m timing, the timing becomes (91/1400)x1200=78 secs., or 1m 18 secs. As the distance is reduced the stamina correction of 0.5 sec. has to be deducted. So the calcuted time becomes 1m 18 secs. - 0.5 sec.= 1m 17.5 secs. This type of correction for stamina is applicable for 200m on either side only. Beyond this stamina corrections may not be proportionate. Pedegree of the horse should also be considered. On sloped race tracks timings of horses with the same distances are to be compared. Proportionate timings of distances are not applicable. Trial and error method by close observation may be useful.
GENERAL:
1.) There is a difference of 5 lengths (1 second) in 1600 metres for a jockey with whip and without whip. 2.) There is a difference of 2.5 lengths (0.5 sec.) between a superior jockey and an inferior jockey both with whip. 3.) In a plate race, if there are 2 or 3 apprentice jockeys without whip, the horse with clear superior timings of these 3 jockeys should also be kept in jackpot races, along with one or two horses with superior timings. 4.) Psycology of trainers should also be studied. Some trainers won’t try to win, if the betting odds on the horse is very less. 5.) If a horse returns from a long rest , say 3 months or more, its timing is generally reduced by 1 second in a distance of 1600m. In the next one or two races it can regain its speed. 6.) The horses of 3,4,5 years of age have good stamina, and later their stamina gets diminished slowly. 7.) 3 year old horses are generally get improved with every race. For 3 year old horse with first run, internet odds at one hour before race may give some clue, besides track performance. 8.) Track timings should not be taken as authority. It only indicates that the horse is in good health and is in good form. Only the distance run timings should be taken as authority. 9.) Performance of the pedigree of horse is important, if the distance run of the horse is not readily available. In India horses with pedigree as Placerville (USA), Razeen(USA), Alnasr Alwasheek(GB), China Visit(USA) etc. are preferable for all distances, especially for long distances. Pedigree as Young Senor(USA) is prefferable for short distances. 10.) If at a same station there are races on two consecutive days with the same timings, and if the trainer and jockey of the winning horse on the first day are repeated on the second day at the same timings on two consecutive days, and if the horse is among the first four horses as per calculation on the second day, there is some astrological influence on the horse to win or take a place. If the name of the owner of the horse and part name of the horse also tallys the astrological influence is more. 11.) Penetrometer readings are not being given at Madras and Ooty races, width of false rails are not being given at Kolkota races. Hence the above calculations are not feasible fully at these stations. 12.) If the difference between the first two horses as per calculation is 5 lengths or more, the first horse is said to be a clear winner, if the horses run on merit. 13.) Horses with early draw numbers have advantage over others, if they have sufficient speed and takes lead and runs along rails, as the distance they they run is reduced by few lengths. over the others. 14.)Some horses wont be allowed to run at its merit in some seasons, though they come first in calculations. Such horses in the next season can win two or three races in a row. 15.) Race courses with firm grounds with penetrometer reading upto 2.5 give better results as per calculations. This applies to Mumbai, Pune, and Mysore. 16.) Regarding seasons, summer season gives better results followed by winter season. It is advisible to avoid rainy season. Greater caution is needed in rainy season. (ALSO REFER MY POST ON HORSE RACING AND ASTROLOGY - There is no need of knowledge in astrology).

Note; Most important correction is converting false rails time to no false rails time. This is applicable only if the distance of the no false rails are taken as marked even n false rails. If the distances are measured along the false rails using a rodometer, false rails correction need not be considered. In that case only correction due to measuring with rodometer is to be considered, which reduces time shortly. Also please examine whethere there is one curve are two curves in the distance. Penetrometer reading varies from place to place also from season to season in the same place. Normally original lengths are measured with a measuring chain. By meeasuring with a rodometer the lengths will increase. so the timings are to be corrected (reduced) to suit the original lengths of no false rails condition. Change in weight correction is minor upo 2000 meters and may be nelected if necessary. It may be considered for track lengts of more than 2000 meters. Think carefully and make your own corrections as you plase.

Please note the final correction to timing of a race horse.

1.)  All corrections should be for no false rails condition.

2.)  All corrections in time should be for a suitable approximate average penetrometer reading of the race center.

3.)  Correction should be up to the weight carried by the particular horse on the race day.

4.)  If the same distance run of the horse is not available for the sake of its timing the next nearby timing (200 meters difference)) may please be taken and proportionate distance may be calculated. After this proportionate correction increase the timing at 0.5 seconds extra for 200 meters, if the distance increases or vice versa.

5.)  If the distances are measured along the false rails (please verify video) false rails correction is not required. Only correction due to measuring with rodometer is to be followed.

6.)  Use your experience to improve further.

7.)   These suggestions are added to clarify doubts from some readers.
