One must study the Siddhānta to understand how the ancient Maharṣis and Ācāryas computed the Graha positions. Learning the evolution and history of a subject is as much important as the current state of the subject. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe knowledge of computation of planetary positions in the sky is only a starting point in the entire field of astronomy. After covering the method of determining the Longitude and Latitude of a Graha, Sūryasiddhānta moves on to apply that in ascertaining astronomical events such as Yuti (conjunction), Astāṅgata (combustion), Grahayuddha (planetary fights), Vakragati (retrogression), Grahaṇa (eclipse) and several others. This book explores the astronomical and astrological aspects of such events. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlso covered are an introduction to A\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eṅ\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003ekaśāstra, or Vedic Numerology, which is based on the Year, Month, Day and Horā lord.
