An Introduction to Jaimini Sūtra: A Journey into the World of Vedic Astrology

<p>This book introduces the subject of Jaimini Sutra concisely to beginners. One who wishes to grasp the Sutra quickly can find a systematic way of dealing with the subject. Jaimini Sutra is complex and terse and requires years of Tapasyā to understand. I have given several examples to make the concept clearer.</p><p>It isn&rsquo;t easy to decipher and understand the profound meaning of a Sutra without the guidance of a Guru. Therefore this book does not intend to teach this complex subject; however it presents a robust framework with apt translations to introduce this subject to an earnest seeker. One who wishes to pursue it further must study under a bonafide Guru.</p><p>While reflecting on the ślokas where appropriate I have provided the interpretations of several Jaimini stalwarts including Pt Sanjay Rath Pt Iranganti Rangacharya Pt Sitārām Śarmā and Prof PS Śāstrī. These are however only a few among great scholars and authors such as Dr BV Raman Śrī B Suryanarain Rao Pt Durgaprasad Dvivedī Pt Kashiram Pt Achyutananda Jhā and Pt Rāmayatna Ojha. There are several other authors from several Indian Languages whose works are equally important.</p><p>Studying Jaimini is a work of a lifetime and no works like this can do justice to the subject. With a humble prayer to the almighty and Maharṣi Jaimini I am presenting this work which I hope the seekers would like.</p>
