The Original<br />

Lomasha Samhita - 1<br />

Translated<br />

By<br />

Veneet Kumar, India<br />

Copy Editor: Chandrashekhar Sharma<br />

A ‘Mission <strong>Saptarishis</strong>’ Initiative<br />

I am a Sanskrit enthusiast and am still<br />

trying to get a good grip over this divine<br />

language. With whatever little knowledge<br />

I have of this language I have tried to<br />

present a faithful translation.<br />

Preface<br />

Readers are requested to not mix this<br />

work with that of what Ashok Kumar<br />

& Anup Das are doing. That was not<br />

in manuscript form whereas this is in<br />

manuscript form and hence in order to<br />

differentiate we call this Lomasha Samhita<br />

‘Original’. Special attention must be paid to<br />

the lineage of the rishis mentioned in this<br />

work with reference to how Jyotish<br />

knowledge was disseminated, this is the first<br />

time something so authentic has come out.<br />

Not to forget that this would be the oldest<br />

Jyotish document ever found. One can be sure<br />

that certain interpolations might have crept in<br />

when this work would have been copied<br />

several times over several centuries and this<br />

should not be forgotten yet the basic essence<br />

would not have changed. Readers will find<br />

hidden clues in this text which are not found<br />

in other works. The coming out of this work<br />

marks a new era in Jyotish bringing us closer<br />

to the <strong>Saptarishis</strong> and the content of it is very<br />

dear to our heart. We salute the man who<br />

gave us this manuscript, did not want his<br />

name revealed even though he paid for it and<br />

said give it out free to everyone – Publisher,<br />

<strong>Saptarishis</strong> <strong>Astrology</strong>.
