What's New?
February 24, 2008: still recuperating, I have added a new section dedicated to "informal articles" on the Articles page. It will consist mostly of interesting email texts from the past that deserve to be preserved.
November 25, 2007: While recuperating from my numerous injuries suffered in my accident I used the time to publish an article called Judging Weath With Caturtamsa that appeared in the September and October 2007 edition of The Astrological Magazine.
September 3, 2007: While travelling from Delhi to Vrndavan to celebrate Janmastami my wife and I were almost killed in a serious car wreck. We dictated our story to a person whose native tounge is not English and since our condition did not allow me to edit for errors you will find many but it doesn't detract from the impact.
May 29, 2007: I have added three new questions and their answers in the Questions and Answers section. Is Numerology relevant? Should we use True or Mean Rahu? And, what is the actual time we should take as the time of birth?"
April 8, 2007: I have added answer to a question about Kala-sarpa yoga and Kala-amrita yoga in the Questions and Answers section.
March 21, 2007: I have started a new section in my Resources area called Questions and Answers it is for posting answers to general questions on Vedic Astrology that I have been asked. I have also up-dated the client comment section.
September 13, 2006: I have added an excerpt from the Mahabharata telling the story of Nala and Damayanti an inspiring story for married couples.
August 1, 2006: If you can read Serbo-Croatian here is the January 7th, 2006 interview of me done by the Croatian online blogazine Akincana-Gocara. I hope to get the orginal English transcribed and publish it.
July 26, 2005: I was recently sent a very mangled version of how the famous astrologer Varaha Mihira was given the title "Varaha" or boar/pig. A strange title indeed but even stranger is how he got it. Read about how and why Mihira Acarya was given the name Varaha Mihira.
July 12, 2005: We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting jyotish students at the newly opened Bhaktivedanta College School of Jyotish.
Our website was also awarded the Sapta Ratna - Seven Gems - for outstanding site devoted to jyotish.
May 31, 2005: In the download section you will find a copy of Ganguly's complete English translation of the Mahabharata (originally in 13 hardback volumes) in HTML format. It is in a zipped file. You will also find a copy as a PDF of a canto of Agnivesa's Caraka Samhita (an Ayurvedic text) entitled Sarirasthana, a fascinating account of how the body is formed starting with philosophical details, conception, karmic details, embryology etc.
May 1, 2005: Well after sometime we have finally published our new site. In many ways it is the same as the old one regarding look and feel we added a few items like a floating menu that follows you as you scroll down the page (the wonders of javascript). We added a lot of new images many with captions. Click on the image to see the caption. And, added a few navigational features. We have also reorganized the site and added a search feature. All these changes are not what took so long. What took so long is that we had to convert the site from an old HTML editor, Claris Homepage 3.0 that was no longer being supported by Claris, over to Adobe GoLive. All this while busy with other projects. Now that this site conversion is done we can focus more on studying, writing and adding more articles to this site.
February 14, 2005: we added a few comments about how "science" views astrology?
October 27, 2004: we made our public prediction on the US Presidential elections.
