An Old books are often ignored and one such is by the giant of yesterday years which is Ramakrishna Bhatt. Though he has written a great work on Prashna but students or even experts should start with his Fundamentals of Astrology.
Read each chapter word by word reading it 3 times and then going to next chapter. Making smart notes on the book and also in a separate book. I often keep a green highlighter plus red dark pen to make my notes on the book.
Below is from his Panchang Chapter Page 291, some of the things we know are myths like not doing house warming on Saturday and sometimes we follow Indian rituals like taking curd sugar while leaving house without bothering which day it is. Below is quote from his book
A. Sage Garga says that house warming can be done on Saturdays, but travelling is forbidden.
B. For voyages one should elect the weekdays and Amsas of the Moon, Mercury, Jupiter and Venus.
C. For boating Thursday is said to be ideal, while Monday and Friday cause floods, and Wednesday break of the pole.
D. The Vidyāmādhavlya states that sometimes the weekdays of Mercury and Venus are not beneficial to women and cows for journey.
E. Certain foods are prescribed for the different weekdays before starting on a journey: They are in order
Sr | Weekday | Item |
1 | Sunday | Ghee |
2 | Monday | Milk |
3 | Tuesday | Jaggery |
4 | Wednesday | Sesamum |
5 | Thursday | Curds |
6 | Friday | Barley |
7 | Saturday | Blackgram |
F. 1) Ghee (Sun), 2) Milk(Mon), 3) Jaggery (Tue), 4) Sesamum (Wed), 5) Curds, 6) Barley and 7) Blackgram.
G. According to Śrīpati, however, they are Mārjika (a kind of buttermilk?), Ghee and Milk porridge, Kāñjikā, Sugar and Milk, Curds, Fresh Milk and Tilo- dana or Rice and Sesamum.
Sr | Weekday | Item |
1 | Sunday | Marjika |
2 | Monday | Ghee & Milk Poridge |
3 | Tuesday | Kanjika |
4 | Wednesday | Sesamum |
5 | Thursday | Curds |
6 | Friday | Barley |
7 | Saturday | Blackgram |
H. Monday, Wednesday and Saturday alone are recommended to oil-bath.
Even Narada Rishi has written this
If anyone takes oil bath results will be as below. ( rough translation, kindly bear with me)
Sunday -will catch some disease & become a patient
Monday- will get radiance & glow
Tuesday- will get some disease
Wednesday – will grow through Luck
Thursday & Friday – may lose wealth
Saturday – wealth & financial growth happens.
In a nutshell , only monday ,wednesday & saturday oil bath is beneficial.
But can we take all this blindly without experimenting and using individual charts where things can alter. In our SA FB Research group this shloka was posted and a kind feedback
Prabal Das
I’ve tested with myself though I don’t know whether in general things work or not sir.
Virgo asc, saturn in 9th- Whenever I applied oil on Saturday I had to fight with my father . Though no problem in other days but yeah if anything I do on Tuesday, I will fall sick on Thursday .

Muhurta should be used in daily life but not as an obsession.
