Vimshottari is the king of the nakshatra dashas of Parashara and the most commonly used one in the world of Hindu astrology. It is useful to do other specific and conditional nakshatra dashas and Jaimini dashas as corroborative and supplementary ones for double check of the promised results and even cross checking. A most neglected and useful tool for prediction is to make use of the Vimshottari dasha with divisional horoscopes without getting lost in needless controversies groups. Astrologyis pratyaksha shastra and anyone who knows astrology can see the results of a dasha if he used Vimshottari dasha upto three levels along with the relevant varga charts or divisional horoscopes. The scheme of this book is the three levels of dashas and three charts for one prediction. For instance if a question is asked about the house, use Vimshottari mahadasha, antardasha and pratyantara dasha along with the birth horoscope, navamsha and chaturthamsha to see what is promised. Now bring in transits of planets, last not first. This book contains illustrated and practical examples and are actually case studies of predictions given to various people from time to time.

He has in his possession more than 50,000 horoscopes with ten important events of each individual noted with him. It is perhaps, the largest individual collection of horoscopes any astrologer in the world has. The strain of doing astrology as a mission, not charging any fee, except on foreign tours almost made him give up astrology many times. But in December 1981 he was forced out of his shell to participate in a three-day seminar on astrology in Delhi. After this ground breaking speech, there has been a persistent demand for his astrological articles. From them onwards he has been sharing with his readers his original researches for which he has won worldwide praise. Between 1993 and 1995, Rao has visited the USA on five lecture tours. He was the Chief Guest at the Second Conference of the American Council of Vedic Astrology in 1993.
