Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 I am generally wary of pocketbooks (which in my childhood meant small books that would fit in the pocket and not the current connotation of wallet or money, as in "this really hits the pocketbook" and I am not talking about this book in particular, please note the opening caveat and disclaimer!). The book is "Arudha System of Prediction" by C.S. Patel and it seems to be a collection of tips and topics that have to do with Jaimini astrology and also leans heavily on DevKeralam (Chandra Kala Nadi). The author has presented a few excerpts from a few classics and is modest to admit that he has only studied and excerpted a portion of these classics. The book, therefore, represents a limited summary or a summary with limitations if you wish to say so -- which is fine. Her certainly did not try to pull the wool over the readers' eyes as some other pocket books may have tried to do from time to time. If you are a beginner, I would recommend it since there is some extracted information all in one place. Hopefully, it does not discourage lazy students from reading the original texts or reputable translations of same. If you are an intermediate or advanced student or astrologer -- read it too, since someday you may be writing an article on the web or magazine or a book. I will leave it at that! IF YOU HAVE READ IT, PLEASE POST YOUR COMMENTS, POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE AND ADD TO THIS THREAD, SIMPLY, LOGICALLY AND DIRECTLY ;-) Thanks!! RR Arudha System of Prediction, by C.S. Patel, 2000(first publication), Sagar Publications -- then DPB Publications (?). I do not know why, but nearly all Indian books do not have a Catalogue number like ISBN etc. so cannot give that.
