If you want to know where Vedic Astrology is coming from this is the book for you. It is not a book explaining the technical side of Vedic Astrology. It is about the spiritual search of the man who brought Vedic Astrology to the West. How a man who has the same problems as all of us meets the wisdom of the East. It shows you some of the possibilities of Vedic Astrology. But more important it tells you the story of a honest spiritual seeker. Highly recommended.

As a Western Astrologer, I could easily relate to his many learning experiences, and his dealing with getting the value of astrology out to the public; neither are easy tasks. I felt he shared his experiences honestly and from the heart. I enjoyed his book and found it to be an easy and interesting read for the astrological seeker. I highly recommend it. It certainly has captivated my interest to learn about vedic astrology.

There are few biographical texts on astrologers. Most of the litterature is technical, but the life of astrological practicians is rarely or disclosed examined.
This autobiography delineates with honesty and humour many hints on the days and nights of an expert in jyotish, both on a personnal and professional point of view. Some aspects of the emotional life of James Braha are also written with a refreshing spontaneity.
