Prashnanushthana Paddhati or simply Anushthana Paddhati in short, is hugely popular work on horary astrology in Kerala since hundreds of years. The first part of the work mainly deals with the topics of longevity and diseases while the second part tackles other topics of day-to-day relevance of human existence. The other popular Jyotisha work from Kerala, Prashna Marga, draws heavily from Prashnanushthana Paddhati and follows its basic structure.
Though many concepts of Prashnanushthana Paddhati are now available in Prashna Marga, it should be noted that several other Shlokas that are quite useful for effective prediction have been left out in Prashna Marga. In fact, Prashnanushthana Paddhati, which is neither too brief nor too elaborate, is complete in itself. Its adherents swear on its amazing efficacy which is evident by its popularity in the astrologer community of Kerala. This inspired the first ever English translation of the work by the translator in 2019.
This enlarged edition provides with extensive notes, alternate interpretations and opinions on various Shlokas, summarization of the information in tables for easy reference, clear demonstrations with examples and horoscopes, and with pictorial illustrations.
