Suggestions to improve the Standards of Naadi Palm Leaf Astrology Centres.
Wing Commander Shashikant Oak, while addressing in the Conference made some suggestions to improve the standards of Naadi reading profession. After some deliberations with some Chief Naadi Astrologers, they have agreed to implement most of them as far as possible in near future. Let us hope this conference puts them in right frame of mind for the rest of the suggestions. {IT IS REQUESTED THAT ANY ONE WISHES TO IMPROVE THESE SUGGESTIONS FURTHER AND / OR TRANSLATE IN TAMIL OR LOCAL LANGUAGE OF HIS/HER AREA, YOU ARE WELCOME. PLEASE PUT UP ON THE WEBGROUP AND HAND OVER TO THE CENTRES FOR IMPLEMENTATION UNDER INTIMATION TO THE UNDERSIGNED} There are many challenges before present Naadi Centres. The younger generation Naadi readers will have to cope up with the requirements of the present day customers. While respecting the old traditions fully, they will have to give way to present day conditions and new paths will have to be build up for the betterment of the divine profession of the ancient past.
Gone are the days when no one was bothered about proper running of any business. Now Consumer Courts, Rationalist pressure groups, Non-believers and Government regulations are out to watch wrong doings at any time and at any place.
Persons without proper ethics and high morale standards are spoiling the reputation of Great Maharshees and their gigantic work of Naadi Palm leaf Astrology. Children of present Chief Naadi readers are not at all keen to learn the cryptic Tamil language. They see pathetic condition of the fellow readers. Disregard to the rituals they are expected to undertake before stating the days proceedings of Divine reading. Not so good activities in the non-working hours. Some code of conduct will have to be observed by all Naadi astrologers.
Few suggestions in this direction are listed bellow for the benefit of all Naadi lovers to observe them minutely while they visit the centres of their areas. The purpose here is not to criticise any person or any Naadi centre in particular but to understand the reality of profession and suggest ways for the betterment of it. |
