It's been so long since I've posted on the Forum, the Forum has changed and I do not have a clue as to how to navigate the new and improved Forum. If I'm in the wrong place, maybe someone can tell me how to get to the right place.
I read Pratyush Bhattacharya's book "Decoding Zodiac with Vedic Astrology." I'm sure if you are on the forum, you've heard about it, read it, and probably discussed it, but I was so impressed by the book that I wanted to compliment the author. Since Ernst was mentioned prominently in the book, I thought he might look at the forum now and then. And, if there is someone-who hasn't read the book, it is the best book on Vedic Astrology that I've ever read. And, yes, I can read, I have read more than a few books on Vedic Astrology, and I do know the basics and perhaps a little more.
Not only did I read this book, but am studying it to refresh my memory and to see things with new eyes you might say.
There had been someone on the old forum who studied physics and I wondered if this was the same person.
My question about the book is that if my copy is vol 1, is there a #2. If not, hurry!!!
The book reflects a lot of what is in Ernst's courses and that, to me, is a very good thing, good enough to bring me back to the forum.
Wish you all a good night. I'm getting back to the book. My favorite part is the easy formulas that you can use to calculate the end of the world, the winner of any election, and to see if your lover is cheating on you. Just kidding-of course-but it's really an eye opening book. Bhattacharya is succinct and clear. I know, I should take lessons.
i just ordered the book yesterday. I think the author is currently working on vol 2...

Thank you. I'd buy his rough draft if he'd let me.
@samrat Hi Pratyush, I am half way on reading your book. Just to let you know it is SO GOOD! Also I am very impressed that with someone with Bangla background has wrote it! I am also a native Bengali speaker by the way. Do you have any FB page/blog/YT channel dedicated for astrology by any chance ? Thank you very much
@farzana Right now I'm too busy writing the next volumes, therefore has no time for social media presence. But I'm working hard to start a YT channel.
Good to see a fellow Bangla speaker here.
Welcome back Paul!
Yes it would be great to have your Mercury chiming in here, and it looks like this strong Mercury retrograde season brought you back in! Our exalted Jupiter (Neeshee) doesn't hang out here any more and those are the two planets that need the most help in my chart (I probably would do better to stay away from astrology with that being the case, but the nakshatra my Rahu is in is compelling me to have to go through some of it before growing beyond it.)
As for navigating the forum, it doesn't look like you've pressed any wrong buttons so far.
Hello everybody.
This is Pratyush, the author. Using a friend's account. Thank you so much for your reviews. I am working on 2 more volumes at once, both on houses - basics and advanced.
I'm trying to release them by 2026.
In the meantime, any questions, suggestions and critique on vol 1 would be very helpful!
Thank you.
Hi Pratyush!! I am reading your book now and it is FANTASTIC. Thank you so much for writing it. Even though I have taken all of Ernst's classes on the Nodes, reading your book gave me epiphanies and deeper understanding. Also everything about the Rasis is steller too. I am very excited for Volume 2...
