Book Review on Hindu Electional Astrology
-- written by V K Shridhar


COMMENTS ON THE BOOK FROM EMINENT ASTROLOGERS

V. K.Shridhar exceeds the expectations even best of the classical scholars if it is remembered that no university or even known scholars has produced such a compendium on the best known branch of astrology as Election. He deserves the highest praise for what he has produced in this book. It shall be fitting reward if some university considers this stupendous work to award him a Ph D or even higher title like D.Litt.
….. Sh. K. N. Rao(Guide & Editor - “Journal of Astrology” & author of 36 books on astrology)It is a must book to complete study of Indian astrology.

Indeed it is an asset even to the professional astrologers. A new trend set by the author in providing exhaustive index helps the readers in easy assess to the desired information.
….. V. P. Goel (Jyotishacharya)

It is an ocean of Hindu Muhurt astrology. Such a compendium on a single branch of astrology is unprecedented.
…. K. K. Joshi (Author of a book on the subject).

It is a remarkable work done by the author on the most difficult yet the most useful branch of astrology. Now world shall know the usefulness of Hindu astrology as Election subject is not covered in western astrology. Humanity shall be benefited in initiating life activities at astrologically selected appropriate time. To the best of my knowledge it is the lengthiest book in field of Hindu astrology.
…. H. R. Sharma (Director General, Commercial Intelligence& Statistics (Rtd.) - Govt. of India).

This book is a worthy contribution to the ever-expanding vast Vedic literature. A novel feature of the book is the application of Swar Shastra in Muhurt astrology in Roman script for the first time. Relevant astrological propitiations are also added to help the readers to mitigate evil effects. Do right thing at right time to reap maximum benefits (appeared under BOOK REVIEW in April, 2002 edition of the magazine)…
... Hemamalini Raghunathan (Editor - Express Starteller- a leading astrological magazine)

I have so many books on astrology, but have never seen such a great informative book in the field of electional astrology. Really a very good book with a good price. Even a layman other than astrologer also be a good Muhurt maker from the book.
… Ravinder Bhavsar ( Author of astrology book on Share Market)

It is a text book on Muhurtha & a complete study of Indian astrology. It is an assest to the professional astrologers. I appreciate your remarkable contribution of “ Hindu Electional Astrology”
… Dr. P A Patel ( President – Hindu Astrological Society, London, U. K.)
