Om Sri Veeraghavaya Namaha
Sri Mattapalli Natham Pranathosmi Nithyam Namaha

Jyothisa Acharaya, Daivagna Shiromani NVRA RAJA M.A (Astrology), M.A (Phil. & Reli.) Junior Meena-2

I sincerely thank the readers and the followers of astrology who have given overwhelming response to the first edition of this book. I am very pleased to bring out the second edition of this book on the 92nd birth anniversary of my beloved father (Meena - 2) wherein I have added certain illustrated charts in North Indian style to enable the followers of such a style to understand and appreciate the stellar system more vividly.

We are all aware that the knowledge expands when it is shared, discussed and debated. But how many of in are doing it in the astrological field ?. Traditional astrologers who have been astrologers for generations have kept the astro-secrets or principles as their family secrets and hence the excellent vedicastro principles or sutras have not come out to the surface to reach the comman man.

The subject, "Predictive Astrology" is one of the most complexed part in astrology. The timing of events poses a great challenge to an astrologer's reputation. On the contrary, Vaikundavasi N.V.Raghavachary, Meena-2 in his book, "Practical Stellar Astrology", had narrated and illustrated the astro principles and sutras freely to enable everyone to benefit out of it for predictive purposes. He had suggested a number of interpretation techniques to enable in arriving at the timing of events in this book in a practical way with with
a lot of illustrations in the form of charts.

In the rear page, I have included "Mattapalli Mangalashtakam" composed by Sri Sri Sri Mukkur Lakshminarasimhachariar Swamy
on Lord Sri Yogananda Lakshmi Narasimhaswamy of Mattapalli for
the benefit of the readers. In my astro counselling, I used to recommend to my clients to recite the Mangalashtakam everyday atleast once(and if possible eleven times) as a remedial measure to enable to get their problems solved and many have expressed that miracles have happened to them in their lives after reciting the Mangalashtakam.

I pray to God to give me enough strength to spread the Meena-2 Stellar Astrology System as cherished by my father. As instructed by my father I will shortly come out with some more astro principles for the benefit of astro lovers, students and practitioners.

I sincerely thank Sri Ashok Agarwal, CEO, M/s.Agrawala (India)
Pvt . Ltd , Himayatnagar, Hyderabad for his financial patronage in getting the cover page printed along with the Mangalashtakam in this edition of book.

I am also thankful to Sri M Ramaprasad, M.Sc., M.A (Astro.), M.A (Phil.) I.F.S. for his constant moral support. My special thanks to Sri D L Jain and the ever youthful and agile Sri Shashi Kumar for assisting me in designing and publishing of this book. My thanks are also due to Sri S Babu Rao, M. A (Astrology) for a careful proof reading and to Chi.Vijayaraghavan Bashyam for english translation of Mangalashtakam. Last but not the least, I thank each and everyone of my friends who have helped me directly and indirectly in getting this revised edition published.

I pray God to shower blessings on all the readers of this book.
