The Laghu Parashari
A Course on a Sanskrit Classic of Jyotisha
In this independent self-study course master jyotishi, Marc Boney, explains and illustrates an important Sanskrit classic,the Laghu Parashari in a very detailed way never seen before.
The text condenses into a very limited number of verses some of the most important interpretive principles of the Parashari predictive system. In particular, two sections of this treatise are very condensed versions of chapters in Parashara Hora having to do with yogakarakas and marakas. Thus, it primarily deals with the timing of very fortunate periods in a person's life when their status could increase, or very inauspicious times when there could be great suffering or even death if the lifespan has expired.
Students receive:
- A PDF file of Marc's 258 page book on the Laghu Parahari, an original translation and commentary in which all the learning points are profusely illustrated.
- Six hours of video instruction in two parts.
