Please advise... You've done a wonderful job of listing things and would you add Dashas? All of them but specidically Vimshottari, Narayana, Ashtottari, Shoola and Yogini. Maybe Kota, Sarvatobhadra and Sudarsana Chakras? I know for me a week on these would be simply wonderful..............mind you I also want everything you've suggested too! Now I suppose we have only to pick a time. Don't forget we have Robert Koch here in the west also and he would be a valuable asset.
