The questions pertaining to the routine and not so routine aspects of life have been elaborately discussed. Amonst the not so routine the questions of supernatural elements, the effects of ghosts, evil spirits, anger or gods and curses of previous incarnations have found places in separate chapters. The methods of judgement are the traditional methods, the Western methods and the Nakshatra Paddhati which has its origin in Meena’s Nadi. The book is virtually a Triveni or a confluence of the Eastern and Western Philosophies with aromatic sprinkling of author’s own experiences.
