Ujjain : The position of planets was favourable during the Simhastha Fair-1992 and 2004, but this time there would be a conjunction of Saturn (Shani) and Mars (Mangal) planets during the Simhastha Fair-2016.
Since there are possibilities of natural disasters or epidemics, the concerned authorities should concentrate on disaster management under the Simhastha Fair preparations. The famous Jain seer Acharya Rishabhchandra Vijay while talking to the media persons at Shri Manibhadra Yakshraj Tirthdham Manak Chowk, Bhairawgarh here, said this. The top Jain seer is presently staying there under his chaturmaas.
Commonly known as Jyotish Samrat, Rishabhchandra Vijayji said that he has disassociated himself from making political predictions after the year 2004.
When being asked why the country has been suffering like the situation of ‘Emergency’, the Jain seer attributed the revolution of planet Saturn in the orbit of Scorpion zodiac since April 2014 as the main cause. According to him, this situation is likely to prevail till August 22, 2015. “Earthquakes, excessive rainfalls, arsonings, disruptions in the parliamentary and legislative houses are the fallout of prevailing position of the planets,” he added.
