The Spiritual weekend workshop in California was a great success and the expert vedic astrologers of America enjoyed every minute. You can view the slides. For the first time we have given some great secrets of the tradition and showed exactly how to study the D20 Chart.

The Ganesha yantra is drawn based on the teachings of Sri Narada in the ‘Ganesha dvadasanama stotra’. The twelve petal  lotus is symbolic of the heart lotus and the door of this heart lotus is guarded by Ganesha.

This is the dancing form of Ganesha and the meditation etc, visualize Ganesha in a rather jovial, compromising mood. Ucchista Ganesha is worshiped to remove domestic disharmony and the relationship with spouse is improved. All sorts of troubles with in-laws etc vanish and the family gets together and lives happily. For the last two decades we have advised the placing of a statue of dancing Ganesha (idol) near the headstand of the bed and the relationship between couples has improved.
