This book is the result of various methods available to map the three human births viz., present, past, and future; I tried to give only a few as applied in practical astrology. Various methods are prevailing in practical and astrologers need to keep handy many methods to predict the event, especially the positive side of the horoscope. This book is based on the traditional Vedic Jyotisha approach.

Many Sanskrit words are given in English to preserve the original idea of the text. Many Chandra Kala Nadi reference are taken from the edition of R Santhanam, Sagar Publication, Delhi.

There are numerous methods and techniques given in Vedic Texts of Jyotisha, and it is not logical to rewrite them here, so better to evaluate them with practical charts whenever possible, rendering the source of the method and its options. Some jataka come with their questions, and some jataka expect astrologer to tell their problems or results they experience at present.

"Nakshatra ['never abolish' is its meaning] is your karmic mountain."

"And planets are the absorbing-releasing agent of what is stored is to be given through configuration-dasha-transit. The BASE is that you are facing what is due to your karmic debt only indicated by planets-stars-signs collectively. House-Planet-sign-nakshatras system adopted here collectively to clear all your karmic imprints of three life present-past-future."

"After death our body is turned into a corpse, the mind becomes formless and the soul is isolated. This isolated soul and mind formless, emotional and cognitive state searches for a soul as per the destined karma. After death remains the formless soul [Sun] the supreme form and the formless mind [Moon] the karma imprints, searching for the suitable body according to karma. When they found (sic) that suitable body, with mind speed [in atomic time-'anukala' ] soul enters the conception in its minutest form. At the time of searching the body and when the first prepare to take the initial foetus, ether i.e., 'Akash' element-divinity governs the utmost importance to protect and preserve the 'soul-mind' and then other four elements [earth-water-air-agni] are taken. This is as per 'Charaka Samhita' where it is said that the conditional soul due to its karma fate enters the embryo through conception in the micro bacterial form at the speed of time called 'अणुकाल.... aṇukāla' i.e., atom time.
