Hyderabad, Sept. 18: Even as the debate rages on the 'scientific

status' of astrology, it has found its way into the curriculum of a

Canadian university. City-based astrologer J Udaya Bhaskara Sastry has

propounded a new theory which has been incorporated in the syllabus

for the advanced numerology course in the Canada-based Suite

University. Sastry will start taking online classes for the students

of the university from next week.

Sastry, the director of the city-based Parasara Institute of

Astrological Studies and Research, has linked astrology to numerology

through Dasha applications. He has plans to write a book on the

subject. Advanced numerology has four modules, including individual

numerology, value numerology, relationship numerology and predictive

numerology. At present, numerology is mostly used to suggest changes

in names to bring prosperity.

Advanced numerology looks at various other things too. Individual

numerology, for instance, gives a phase-wise reading of a person's

life. Relationship numerology helps one to enter a relationship,

whether personal or for business. Value numerology assigns numerical

values to alphabets and predictive numerology presents the past,

present and future of a person.

The new theory proposes that the Dasha system can be applied to

numerology too, after assigning the person a numerical ascendant based

on his date of birth. Sastry has experimented with the new system by

drawing up astrological and numerological ascendants of Princess

Diana, Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi as individuals. He has also used

it in the case of the World Trade Center attack. Sylvia Cochran, the

dean for Philosophy and Religious Studies at Suite University, said

that the new theory would be a wonderful addition to the existing

courses in the university.
