10.00 am to 6:00pm Shri JN Bhasin Masterclass on Prashna

JN Bhasin

10:00 to 6:00 Shri JN Bhasin Master

class on Prashna

Prashna is a unique and highly useful

branch of Vedic astrology. It is based on

the astrological chart constructed for the

moment of the query. The chart so

constructed reveals great details about the

mind of the querist, his problems and the

course of events pertaining to those

problems. The Prashna chart can reveal

such details as are not generally possible

from a study of the birth chart. Prashna is a

highly recommended tool of Vedic

astrology.

Shri Sharma will teach use of Hora and

Tajika Yogas in Prashna and many more

secret techniquesfor a successful prashna.

He learnt from Shri KG Dutta and then

further enhanced the knowledge through

his years of practice and teachings.

About Shri JN Sharma.

Shri JN Sharma is one of the great Masters

on Prashna and it is an honour that he has

agreed to do a masterclass for the Second

Fresh Talents Conference. He will be

giving many secret techniques on how to

use Prashna.

Lunch will be served in the restaurant –

included in the cost.

Tarr, one of our faculty

Nakshatras are an integral constituent of Vedic

astrology. Original Vedic astrology was

Nakshatra based. The introduction of rashis is a

later development. Nakshatras are an important

limb of the Panchanga and find extensive use in

the Muhurta or electional astrology. All Vedic

festivals are based on either Tithis (lunar dates)

or Nakshatras or on Tithi-Nakshatra

combinations.

Unfortunately, Nakshatras have not received

the importance in predictive astrology that is

their due. There are myriad aspects of life that a

study of Nakshatras can unravel. An intelligent

application of an understanding of Nakshatras,

not only in Muhurta but also in natal astrology,

is highly recommended.

The workshop will deal with the nakshatras as

a whole, explaining their use in the Muhurta as

usual. But in addition explain how the

principles of Muhurta are so eminently

applicable to the natal chart. Dr Charak has

written many stories about the nakshatras,

extracting them from the various Puranas, he

would teach how inferences can be drawn from

the Puranic myths and applied to natal charts.

Part of it would apply to medical astrology too

06 October 2014 (Monday): New Delhi – Second Fresh Talents of Jyotish Conference Day 5

Vinay Aditya Master Class on Ashtakavarga: A Digital Technique for the Present Era.

10am to 6pm

Dr K S Charak (MS; FRCS) served as Head of the Dept of Surgery in ESI Hospitals in Delhi for nearly

twenty-five years. Presently, he heads the surgery department at the Indian Spinal Injuries Centre.

Dr Charak has studied astrology for close to fifty years right from school days and has been

teaching for the last twenty-four years. He has written about ten highly appreciated books on Vedic

astrology, and published the highly technical and educative astrology journal, the Vedic Astrology, for

eleven years, from 1997 to 2007. He has lately got interested in the study of nakshatras on which he is

planning to write a book, based on the information not only in the Muhurta classics but also in the

Puranas.

Dr Charak is engaged in charitable work on a grand scale. He runs the non for profit

organisation called the Shri Onkar Singh Memorial Trust under the auspices of which he provides free

medical and surgical treatment to the poor and needy patients in rural areas, totally free of cost. He has

been running this organisation for the last fourteen years with the help of some of his highly dedicated

medical and paramedical friends, and has benefitted over fifty thousand patients by now.

The edifice of astrology rests on the

inter-play of planets in the backdrop

of the zodiacal signs. Ashtakavarga, a

unique gift of Vedic Jyotish to the

world of astrology, is the only

competent method which puts this

interplay into an inclusive system.

In this workshop the democratic basis

of the technique will be described and

its use in myriad situations will be

shown through example horoscopes.

How Ashtakavarga can bring teeth to

your predictions will be explained

through its transit and dasha

applications. Though traditionally it is

applied only on the birth chart but

actually speaking this method can be

applied to all kinds of charts, e.g.,

Divisional charts, Prashna charts or

Varshaphala charts. After all the

interplay of planets never ceases.
