Guest guest Posted August 11, 2003 Report Share Posted August 11, 2003 Dear Mr.Bipin, Muthu here, following is the info. i found under the archives as a guide lines for beginers to learn astrology. I thought may be useful as i too am desperately looking for the same. QUOTE: Learning Vedic Astrology - Study Suggestions basd on my own experience:- (1) The most comprehensive treatise on Vedic astrology is "Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra" (translated by R. Santhanam or G.C. Sharma). This is at best a reference book and not a book to learn from. But it is good to possess and refer to. (2) First read "Hindu Predictive Astrology" by Dr. BV.Raman. This doesn't go into depth, but it covers a vast ground. It lays an excellent foundation for the rest of the reading. (3) Then read Dr. BV.Raman's "How to judge a horoscope" (volumes 1 & 2). Don't bother if you can't remember it all. As you look into more and more charts, you will remember it all. (4) After finishing (3) half way, start browsing through "Notable Horoscopes" by the same author. (5) While reading (3) and (4), keep "Three Hundred Important Combinations" by the same author on your bookshelf. Whenever you encounter the name of a new "yoga", refer to this book and learn the details! (6) Then read: "Vedic Astrology: An Integrated Approach" (Sagar Publications, New Delhi, India) by Narasimha Rao (7) Then read : "Crux of Vedic Astrology" by Sanjay Rath (8) One must have Respect to Guru's and love and devotion to learn this Divine Science. (This is not available in any book store and you have to develop it on you own) After finishing books (2)-(7), you will have a solid foundation and you will be able to look at charts and draw intelligent conclusions with up to 80% accuracy. Of course, this knowledge is endless and there are many more good books - classical as well as contemporary - that will make for excellent reading. At some point of time during the above studies go to the following web site and get the Jagannath Hora Lite software developed by one of SJC Guru's Narasimha Rao Ji and play with your own chart and others. · http://www.geocities.com/pvr108/ Go to the following website and approach a guru and request him/her to accept you as a student. http://www..org/sjc/class/guru.htm UNQUOTE; TRUST THE ABOVE IS OF HELPFUL TO YOU Regards Muthu QATAR. , SRCKaimal <srckaimal@a...> wrote: > Dear Sri.Shailash Chandha, > I am still waiting for your advice promised by you regarding the books I want to purchase. > Regards > kaimal > - > Shailesh Chadha > > Cc: rgangaramani@h... ; bipin.prag > Friday, August 08, 2003 5:19 PM > RE: [sJC: Achyuta Gurukul] Re: Achyuta Gurukul] Jyotish Books and Study > > > Dear Bipin & Ramesh, > > > > A small correction before we start - I am Shailesh Chadha - from SJC, Hyderabad.
