Dear Sunil Bhattacharjya ji, As I know it there are 3 books - 1) Atharva Vedanaga Jyotisha (This text is NOT present in the file section; but a detailed transilation of this books is available in Delhi. The commentary is written by one of our fellow member scholar "Girija Sankar Sastri"). 2) Atharva Jyotisha (This is the book that is present in the file section of the group). 3) Atharva Vedeeya Jyotisha (This book is NOT present in the files section of the group. But this books is currently available from Chaukhamba Bookstall, Delhi) I wil try to provide, Atharva Vedanga Jyotisha and Athara Vedeeya Jyotisha in pdf - as time permits, after some months. As I know it, there is no "Atharva Parishita" (AP) on astrology available. Atharva Veda speaks about astrology herea and there. Some of the vedic references to planets and Nirayana Zodiac is available in the following articles written by me. 1) Vedic Proof of Planets 2) Vedic Proof of Sayana Nirayana Systems Both of them are useful to denay some of the arguments put forward by Kaul with proof.

I read quite some years a Bengali book which covered this subject. I think its name was Jatak Kaumudi. Neither I have the book with me now nor I should dare to think of pitting it against the Brihat Prajapatya, even if I would have had it with me.

Dear Sreenadhji,Avtarji then might have referred to the file on "Atharva Veda Parisista" (AP), uploaded by Dr. R.N.Iyengar in the HinduCivilisation . I think Dr. Modak has also written a book on AP and that is published by the Rashtriya Veda Vudya Pratisthan.Regards,Sunil K. Bhattacharjya

Dear Sunil Bhattacharjya ji, NO Atharva Veda Parisista on astrology is uploaded by R N Iyengar in Hindu civilization group. What he uploaded was this Atharva Jyotisha (This is the book that is present in the file section of the group). He gave the name Atharvana Jyotish.pdf to the file with the comment "Atharvana Jyotisham.(Ed.) Bhagavad Datta". Please note that it is the same file as uploaded/present in the files section of this group. //I think Dr. Modak has also written a book on AP and that is published by the Rashtriya Veda Vudya Pratisthan.// I am yet to hear any such thing or read about it. I have Atharva Veda with me, and I know for sure that there is not much astrology in it except some references to planets and Nakshatras. Love and regards,Sreenadh

Dear Sreenadhji,I have come across the following transliteration of a verse from the Atharvaveda Parisista (AP), which to my understanding says that disasters, including bloodshed and draught, can happen in the world if Rahu (ie. both Rahu and Ketu) devours both the Moon and the Sun within a fortnight. That is why the interest in the AP. " Yadi

Dear Shri Kursijaji,

 

Yes, the verse from the Atharvaveda Parisista refers to the disastrous effects

of two eclipses occurring within a fortnight.

Dear Sreenadhji,If my memory serves me right Avtarji mentioned once that Dr. R.N.Iyengar had uploaded the AP in the file section in one of the groups, where both of them are members. I understand that the Choukhamba Granthalaya also published a book on that.Regards,Sunil Kumar BhattacharjyaSreenadh <sreesog Sent: Wednesday, September 3, 2008 5:04:57 AM Re:Atharva
