P R E F A C E x-'

Astrology is a remarkable concern of the Hindu mind, with its genius

classification, analogy, interrelationship of all the categories of

human existence, whether corporeal, psychological, or divine. And

among these enormous endeavors still represented by literary remains, the

works of Varahamihira (6th cent., A.D.) stand out as monuments of

erudition. Of the celebrated woi-ks of Varahamihira, his greatest work on

personal astrology is the Brihat-Jataka. It is this work whish Shree

Rangachari has studied unremittingly f6r many years. He was already

advanced in these researches when I had the pleasure of discussing some of

those topics with him in his native Madras in the year 1963.

Shree Rangachart's chart, "The Science of Hindu Astrology," is a

thorough exploitation of the system of Hindu astrology as Varahamihira

preserved and critically presented it. These Hindu works present enormous

difficulties for the reader; and Shree Rangachari deserves the appreciation

of anyone interested in Hindu astrology for his painstaking restructuring

of the main ideas in a form where they are more easily visualized and

rationalized than in the traditional text. This chart and its

accompanying explanations should help a wide class of readers to asses 3 the

character of Hindu astrology and its potentiality for rendering the kind

of answers which believers in astrology expect.
