Jinendramala: A Journey into the World of Vedic Astrology

By Sarajit Poddar

Jinendramala is an important Prashna text written by a Jain Monk, Shri Upendracharya. It contains methods that are rarely found in other Prashna works, such as Prashnamarga, but this text also introduces several unique principles. Jinendramala offers a detailed application of Udaya, Arudha, and Chhatra Rashi, elements that are scarcely found in other texts.

This volume aims to clarify the concepts of Chhatra Rashi or Kavippu, which are unique to Jinendramala and other Jain Prashna works like Prashna Jnanapradipika. Additionally, the book explains the concept of Yamagraha, also known as Jamakkol or Samakkol. These represent the special positions of Grahas in a Kundali, determined by dividing the day into Yamas or Jamams.

The text also describes a method for locating treasures underground using the Chandragupti Chakra, which is explained in Prashnamarga for locating water underground. This approach is known as Jamakkol Arudham and Samakkol Arudham and is widely practised in southern India.

I am presenting this volume after painstakingly studying the principles from Jinendramala and Prashna Jnanapradipika. There are only a few practical applications of the principles discussed, as this work primarily focuses on the underlying concepts. If time permits, I will write a separate volume demonstrating the use of these principles with real-life case studies.
