lalkitab

[Guest guest]

Dear Vijay Kumar ji,

 

Lal Kitab is a part of Indian Vedic astrology. There are no

differences in studying a horoscope between the two systems. For

further clarifications you could read an article " myths and reality

of lal Kitab " in the file section of the following group:

In case you are interested in learning more about the Lal Kitab you

could go to the reading list given in the file section of the

Lalkitab remedies group.

 

With regards,

varun ji;

 

 

pardon me if raise another controversy but i simply

couldn't withhold the following information. i thought it appropriate

to share it with the group to get an appropriate answer.

there is a person in pt. Roop Chand Joshi's native village pharwala

whose father Shri Durgadas was a close associate of pt ji at the time

of writing these books.

when we met him he mentioned that lalkitab was not singlehandedly

authored by pt ji. there was a group which can be termed as his

partners or assistants but in my thought friends who used to discuss

astrology and as it was a tradition in those days to compose them

into poetic form, which related to writing kavishri which was popular

both as form of entertainment and storing / sharing knowledge about

subjects mainly historical or prevelant.

these people would compose couplets with of course pt ji having a

greater command and say.

compared with them, pt ji had larger resources at hand (financial,

contacts, language etc.) and with the publishing of these books only

pt ji's and girdhari lalji's name remained but others were

(conveniently) forgotten.

i think it is appropriate that the group should share any information

on this subject and make further research in this respect because if

such persons had made some contribution their efforts ought to be

duly recognised.

Dear Kulbir bhai,

 

I must on my behalf and on the behalf of the group place on record

our gratitude for the fact you have brought to the notice of every

one here.

 

We also believe that the Lal Kitab had evolved during the life time

of Pt. Roopchand ji. If one goes through the book carefully at times

one does notice the change of style and narration. If one reads the

Pitri Rin section, or about mercury or about Rahu-Ketu one does come

across a mystical style and narration, of course not forgetting

the ‘alop antar ki laharen’

 

The Lal Kitab had evolved and is still evolving through efforts of

the people like you and us together. Lal Kitab , unlike other

classics, will not get fossilized so long as we are prepared to let

the fresh air in. So long as we do not treat a fair academic

discussion on the book a sacrilege , Lal Kitab would continue to

breathe and grow.

 

All those who had contributed to the evolution of the Lal Kitab are

to be fondly remembered as the Pillars of this knowledge and they

will always stand taller than us.

 

Once again thank you for having brought out this piece of information.

 

With regards,

 

Varun Trivedi
