Respected Varun ji,

 

Is there a uniform method to study the Lal Kitab system ? If so, could

you please share with us.

I would love to have some tips from you, as to how one should go about

studying the Lal Kitab.

 

With respect,

 

Girish Raheja

Shri Varun ji,

 

I have met some Lal Kitabists who insist that the Lal Kitab system

is entirely different from the Vedic astrology. They further insist

that the two should be kept apart and not allowed to intermingle.

Where as you insist that in order to understand the Lal Kitab system

better one should be well versed in the Vedic astrology too.

Shri varun ji,

 

Then why do some Lal Kitab followers insist that the Vedic system

should be kept apart from the Lal Kitab system?

Dear Varun ji,

 

I have read both the books of Pt. Krishna Ashant ji. They have been

of tremendous help in understanding the Lal Kitab. I also endorse

that all those who want to study the Lal Kitab should read these two

books recommended in the reading list. Both these books are simple

and very easy to understand by those who are already familiar with

the traditional Indian astrology.

 

Sincerely,

 

Rohit Sharma

Shri Trivedi ji,

 

You have done a great service by sharing with us the way you studied

Lal Kitab. I am already a professional astrologer and I follow the

System's Approach by shri Chaudhery. In the SA also we recommend

various remedies. These remedies are not exactly the same as in the

Lal Kitab, but they are very similar. I have learnt, through your

group, that the Lal Kitab remedies are based on logic. One may agree

with that logic or not is a different matter.

I intend to study the Lal Kitab system following your foot steps.

Bless me so that I become successful.

 

Thanking you in advance

 

LM astro
