Jataka Parijata (Set of 3 Volumes) [RP]

It is a matter of great pleasure that the publication of the second edition of JATAKA PARIJATA, the monumental work of Sri Vaidyanatha Dikshita with the excellent notes of the Late V. Subramanya Sastri has been possible by God’s grace and the same is being placed before the public. This is an exact reprint of the edition that was brought out by Shri Sastri in the year 1932. No words of introduction are required as the works of Sh. Sastri are all masterpieces by themselves and have rightly earned the fame that is their due. The earlier edition was long out of print and there was an ever growing demand for this book and the present edition is intended to fulfill this long-felt demand. The importance of this work Jataka Parijata cannot be exagerated.

It is a basic text book of Hindu Astrology, studied almost in all parts of the country by students and scholars alike. It is a book invariably prescribed for study in almost all oriental examinations on Jyotisha. As a classical text book of Hindu Astrology it ranks next perhaps only to Brihat Jataka… The fact remains that Brihat Jataka is too brief and
difficult and that was why works like Horasara, Saravali etc. were written with a view to supply all that is obscure, hidden and missing therein. Among these works is none that can excel Jataka Parijata in providing a detailed knowledge about all the essential aspects like Ayurdaya. yogas, Bhavaphala, Vimshottari, Ashtakvarga, Stri Jataka, Kalachakra Dasha etc. The work has been translated in most of the regional languages like Malayalam, Hindi etc and is held in high esteem by astrologers as a book of great authority throughout the country.
