Damodar Pokhrel
Writer, classical Jyotish and career astrology
Damodar writes the long-form guides on Vedic Kundali that trace an idea back to its source text, from Maharishi Parashara and the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra to the way a 10th house is read for a career. The pieces favour the classical rule first, then the modern application, and quote the sutra by chapter wherever one applies.
Every chart referenced in these articles is computed with Drik Siddhanta and the Swiss Ephemeris (Lahiri ayanamsha). How Vedic Kundali works.
