Nadi amshas are the division of a rashi of thirty degrees into one hundred and fifty parts; according to some astrologers these parts are again divided into two parts each, which would give to each rashi three hundred parts. Predictions made on this basis are infallible. But the technique is lost at the moment. It will have to be rediscovered and can be done, I hope, in this age of computers.
The fact that the ancient rishis could go to such finer divisions and use them for predictions stands proven historically and we have brilliant instances of such readings recorded. Yet most of the Nadi readers (in northern India Nadi is known as Bhrigu Samhita) are either fakes or use books without anything pertaining to astrology, or both.
I have developed my own technique of giving a total view of anyone’s life pattern. I have given some intances in my book, Astrology, Destiny and the Wheel of Time, and have over two hundred acknowledged readings, in writing, with me.
I have tabulated over twenty raja yogas, combinations giving power and high position, inJaimini astrology. Most of them have been tested by me.
Earlier when I wrote these they appeared to be the risk I was taking. Now, I feel, I am on surer grounds.
I have taken such risks very often with my application of Jaimini astrology and sometimes given dazzling, out of the way predictions, and sometimes failed so miserably that I almost decided to give up astrology. However, my rate of high success in these experiments has kept up my enthusiasm.
With this introduction, I am posing two questions to Jaimini scholars.
(i) Can the nature of the struggle in one’s career be seen? What is shown as struggle is a struggle only or has it some other meaning?
(ii) When will there be rise and when a fall, in a career full of vicissitudes?
Before this question is answered let me give ten instances here to show how it can be seen through the position of the Amatyakaraka in one’s horoscope, from the Lagna, not from Karakamsha, Pada Lagna or the Moon.
