Arishtas, The Dangers: A Journey into the World of Vedic Astrology

THIS IS THE INTERNATIONAL EDITION OF THE BOOK

This book is about Ari¿¿as or dangers. Ari¿¿as are the suffering caused by the untoward positions of Grahas in our Ku¿¿ali. They are the antithesis of the good yogas, such as Rajayoga and Dhanayogas and are the primary cause of suffering.

The volume is structured into the Samaya Do¿as, the Nak¿atra Ari¿¿as, the Ga¿¿anta Janma, Balari¿¿a, and danger to parent and child. The Samaya Do¿as are the flaws in time. There are numerous yogas, which indicate the time which is not favourable. The Sastras detail 21 such yogas, and each of them is explained in detail. The Nak¿atra Ari¿¿a occurs to the child, the parents and the relatives, such as maternal uncles and aunts because of birth in a certain Nak¿atra or its Cara¿a.

The next two sections on the Balari¿¿a and the danger to parents and children are complex, and I have started with providing the building blocks of such yogas. Applying the yogas becomes relatively easier once the seeker understands these building blocks. I hope that the seekers find this useful and helpful in their journey into the world of Jyoti¿a.
