Hora Phala Ratnavali [English] By K Guru Rajesh
Publisher: BigNote Publications
The Horaphalaratnavali, a Malayalam commentary on the initial eight chapters of Brihajjataka, runs as a dialogue between a teacher and his disciple. The author appears to be well-versed in various branches of ancient learning and reveals several secret interpretations of many Shlokas which were guarded by the tradition and were hitherto unheard by others. Particularly, his treatment of the last two chapters on Ayurdaya and Dasas deserve special attention from the readers. He appears to be well acquainted with Sanskrit commentaries by Bhattotpala, Rudra, and Govinda Bhattattiri and so on. A discerning reader can easily recognize the erudite scholarship of the author and the value of his unambiguous instructions. This English translation brings forth for the first time the greatness of the work to the non-Malayali Jyotisha enthusiasts by providing extensive notes at every instance by explaining the concepts with pictorial depictions, real-life case studies and examples, and by incorporating information from the commentaries of Bhattotpala, Rudra, Govinda Bhattattiri, Parameshwara and A.N. Srinivasaraghava Aiyangar. Relevant information from other works like Prashnanushthana Paddhati and Phaladeepika is also incorporated.
