The Mystic Red

BookByRabinder Nath Bhandari, India.In English this rare work is called

the Red Book & in Urdu/Hindi it iscalled Lal Kitab. In my opinion, it is toughto explain Lal Kitab in few words, becausethis book provides vast information

regarding readings and interpretation ofeffects of Past Karmas {deeds} on anyindividual, which are first of all recordedin heavens, represented through nine { 9nidhi} planets by their placement intwelve houses {12 sidhi} of a horoscope,whose influence is recorded in humanbrain first in 42 houses {42 years of age ofplanets Rahu}, thereafter through thoughts

created in human brain, these effects aretransferred through nervous system in theshapes of different palm lines and mountsof various planets {which form a base forenacting a horoscope based on readingpalm lines and mounts} and all thesereadings in this system are also to becorrelated with the total outlook {body intotal} of self, house of native {from whichhouse horoscope is enacted and plays avital role in selecting Lal Kitab remedies},plants, trees , animals and birds, relatives,friends, colors of clothings, eating habitsand personal behavior while giving areading based on Lal Kitab.In fact Lal Kitab, which was published infive different editions is the presentation

1 All were originally written in Urdu language,with total Punjabi touch in its style, and where,Pandit Ji felt necessary, he used Farsi or Arabiclanguage, and even phrases in Punjabi to conveymeanings emphatically.

of a new system of prediction, which we may quote as Lal Kitab System Of Prediction,through which, the author Pandit Rup Chand Joshi {1898 1982} tried and succeeded to getrid of tough/long mathematical calculations and linked planetary readings with SamdurikShashtra {palmistry} and through Ilm Kayafa {estimations} related knowledge aboutinfluences of our surroundings.

Why Is It Called The Red Book Lal Kitab?It is clearly mentioned in Aagaz {preface} ofLal Kitab, that color of this book binding mustbe in red, which is supposed to be nonshining, and all other colors of its binding will givenegative effects {manhoos asar dene wale hongey}. Reason for selecting this color is selfexplanatory and becomes very much clear while reading colors and influences of all nineplanets in this book, and there is only one planet, i.e. mangal nek {mars positive}, whosecolor is blood red, {color of life}, and in presence of mangal nek, no other planet in negativestate prevails and all effects and results come always positive and no malefic combinationcan render its negative influence in its presence. Where as, while we think about any color

of another planet, every planet can be affected in adverse way by aspects or by maleficcombinations or by their placements or links with inimical planets. Thus keeping this viewin mind, red color, which is supposed to be non shining, is selected for binding of this bookand name to this book {Lal Kitab } given accordingly.

Time Period When All Five Editions Of Lal Kitab Were PublishedLal Kitab was written and published from 1939 to 1952 in five total different editions. Allthese were published under the name of Pt. Girdhari Lal Sharma along with his photograph,but actual writer of these books was Pandit Rup Chand Joshi Ji, resident of village Farwala{Distt. Jalandhar} near Phillaur (Punjab state), from where busses follow a route towardNoor Mehal. Pandit Rup Chand Joshi Ji was in service in Defense Accounts and retired asAsst. Accounts Officer, which becomes very much clear to the visitor even today, to thenative village of Pandit ji, where a beautiful, big name plate is still present on top of themain gate of Baithak {A Room, where Pandit Ji attended to visitors and used to givepredictions to them}. As, most of the practitioners of Lal Kitab are writing name of Pandit Jiwith wrong spellings i.e. Pandit Roop Chand Joshi, but in the original name plate, spellingsare Rup Chand Joshi (see below original name plate).

I visited personally Farwala (Distt. Jalandhar) village and contacted some old persons fromthat village, who were very much pleased to talk about Pandit Ji, and all gave due respect toHim. One of his neighbors, Sh. Kundan Lal, whose shop and residence is just opposite toBaithak, told me that all knowledge, which is reflected in all these five editions ofLal Kitabis entirely due to His hard work, intelligence and interest in this field of Jyotish andwhatever is said, is true and what so ever He predicted to his visitors, came true and thatwas his own original work and all this knowledge was acquired by Him during his servicetime.

First edition of Lal Kitabwas published in 1939 titled as Samudrik Ki Lal Kitab, in which, itis very much clear from title page of this book, where it is written {hatheli ki lakeeron seteva (tipra) janam kundli bnane aur zindgi ke poorey halaa,t dekhne ke liye, Samudrik KiLal Kitab {how to enact a horoscope based on readings from hand lines of a person}. Thisbook contains information in 383 pages regarding palmistry mainly, showing relationship of9 planets and 12 houses of horoscope on palm of a person and their influences on his life and

also on his relatives.

Second Edition of Lal Kitab was published in 1940 and was titled as Samudrik Ke Lal KitabKe Armaan {285 pages}, in which all required information, which was not included in FirstEdition of Lal Kitab, was incorporated and this is the book, in which Ilm Kyafa{estimations} was included and it was clearly mentioned in Sarsri Note in the beginning ofthis book that all Armaans of this book are to be read in conjunction with all Farmaans of1939 edition, to reach up to the depth of this subject. This book also contained some remediesin a precise manner, which were also quoted in other editions too.

Third edition of Lal Kitab was published in 1941 and was titled as Samudrik Ki Lal KitabTeesra Hissa{428 pages} and is a pocket sized edition. This book is written mostly in poetryand this is a summary reference book and Pandit Ji used to call this book as Gutka {PocketBook}. In this book, one thing of great importance regarding remedies of adverse influenceof planets is quoted on page no 410 {line number 12 to 15}, where to perform remediesaccording to planetary position in horoscope of subject or correct planetary influencesaccording to House Horoscope {Makaan Kundli}.

Fourth Edition of Lal Kitab was published in 1942 and was titled as Samudrik Ki Lal Kitabtarmeem shuda {379 pages} is written in a very much compact way, in which detailedinformation is incorporated in quite an interesting manner regarding all twelve houses, nineplanets, samudrik shastra, Ilm Kyafa, additionally remedies are also explained in a very niceway and more stress is paid on Grammer Of Lal Kitaband how to judge negative or positiveinfluence of planets and their placements by looking at individuals such as When Face IsLong, Jupiter Is Found Influencing Sixth House, When Face Is Broad, Instead Of Jupiter,Ketu`s Influence Is More On Sixth House And In The Same Way From Eyebrows Of APerson, Quality Of Saturn Can Be Judged, From Ears Ketu, From Tip Of Nose MercuryAnd All Other Planets Can Be Noticed In The Same Manner, but all this information is

lying scattered in different Farmaans ofLal Kitab, which reader is supposed to collect withhis labor and reading it with deep interest.

This is the only edition, in which, Pandit Ji said Mazmoon Go Deemag Par Bhari AsarHone Se Thakaega Magar Mehnat Se Lal Ktab Ke Zariye Nikala Hua Natija Ya Farmaan

Ek Karamad Cheej Hogi which means the astrologer who uses all these calculations willget mentally tired but with the labor he does of Lal Kitab the result he will get will bemiraculous. Which shows, how deep was the interest of Pandit Ji in this system ofprediction, and these words are reflecting that the writer himself realized the impact anddepth of information included in these books, who also felt exhausted with the overloadingof brain force while reading and writing all this information for the benefits of humanity.

Fifth Edition of Lal Kitabwas published in 1952 and was titledas Jyotish Ki Lal Kitab and on title page it was written inEnglish language first time that { Astrology Based onPalmistry} and there were 1180 pages in total up to last page ofdrustiyan {correction memo} and this edition was the mostdetailed version and more stress was paid on Grammar Of LalKitab, Varsh Phal Calculations, all planets were discussed tomake it clear to its reader regarding Nek {Good} or Bad{Adverse} condition of every planet with very nicely

incorporated information regarding various remedies, whichare to be performed to ward or get rid of adverse influence of

any planet. Relation of different planets with residential house, types of person of variousplanets, effects of animals, birds, plants, donations, colors of writing pen with ink used therein are very nicely explained. One more interesting chapter in this book is PitriRin, whichdeals with influence of bad deeds / sins of the ancestors of native on the native, whichgenerally create obstacles for the prosperity of the person and how to get rid of all these ismentioned very elaborately.

All the above five editions ofLal Kitabare written in a proper sequence, if any person readsall these five books in their proper order (order of their publication) repeatedly, he is blessedwith very deep knowledge and will be in a position to interpret horoscope made by ourtraditional system, by reading palm and will be in a position to trace placement of all planetsin different houses, can give predictions only by looking at any person by ascertainingposition and condition of planets as per guidelines given in all these five editions.

Basis Of Judgment accordingly to Lal Kitabis very accurate because:1. We can read horoscope made according to old traditional system by giving ascendant

as no 1 and then complete horoscope according to Lal Kitab.2. By casting a horoscope of Ones Own Home Makaan Kundli, based on observations

of placement of different items and their location by linking all these with 9 planetsand 12 houses.

3. By looking at the face and observing personal behavior, a horoscope according to thebrain of that person Deemag Kundli (Brain Horoscope).

4. By having a detailed look at the hand of a person; planets can be placed in 12 differenthouses of a horoscope Samudrik Ki Bunyad Se Banayee Hooyee Janam Patri.

All these charts are given below for readers reference.

Pls note that in the Vedic system Saturn and Ketu are placed in the first house in Virgo Signand this gets converted into the Red Book Horoscope by just changing the sign of Virgo toNo 1 as the first house, there are houses in Lal Kitab.

Remedies According To Lal Kitabbimari kaa bgair dwai bhi ilaaj hai, mager mout ka koyee charraa nahin, yeh dunyavi hisaab kitabhai, koyee dava e khudai nahin which means that ill health can be cured without the help ofmedicine, but death can`t be averted, so these all are the worldly calculations, not a verdict fromalmighty.

As prediction base of Lal Kitab is very strong because of its judgment based onmultidirectional observations, accuracy level is very high; in the same manner its remedialmeasures for curing ill effects of planets on human beings are also having a very strong base.Affecting planets are classified into two types of planetary placements such as

A) Greh Phal Planet Result(remedies for these planets are not done directly, because oftheir permanent influence so in these cases, remedies are performed by taking helpof other planets or of one out of two planets, representatives of their artificial{masnooyee} form and

B) Rashi Phall Sign Result, for which direct remedies can be performed. Main stress ispaid on personal behavior of any person, color of clothes, eating habits, bad immoralactivities, his temperaments, relations with his family members and surroundingfellow beings, his residing place, timing of marriage etc, timing for construction ofhouse, main gate direction of house where a person is residing, type of charity anddonations which a person is supposed to perform, color of fountain pen which he isusing and all these remedies are very strongly effective in getting rid of bad influencesand clear all paths of progress of the native. As all these remedies are very easy to beperformed only by changing some routine habits, personal behavior, and their cost is

very much low, because these are meant for help of humanity, not for benefits of self.

In my 28 years of experience in Indian Astrology, Lal Kitab, Palmistry, I have observed andfound that every remedy works very well and very quickly. There are a number of veryquick remedies for protection of baby child since from the day of pregnancy till birth, forhappy married life and relations, for success in any ones career, for getting rid of illness, forforeign travel, to prevent loss of money and control of extravagant expenses, remedies forgetting relief of ill affects of any ones residential house according to types of houses and somany other aspects of life of a human being.

There is no one specific remedy as people think for any specific work, selection of anyremedy varies from person to person for any given field and so their effectiveness varies. Inall of its remedies, a special care is paid to get benefits only by small changes in our dailyroutine life, which are totally logically based, e.g. as any one person, whose Moon is placedin first house, he should avoid use of Glass Tumbler for taking milk or water and instead ofthis, use of silver tumbler is advised because of the basic reason of moon and mercuryplanets inimical behavior and at the same time, there is a special foot note at the base of thatpage, in which it is advised not to use Ganga Sagar Of Silver (Ganga Sagar is a silver tea potwith side pipe to pour tea into cup now why not to use this since silver represents planet

moon and a round hollow pipe represents planet mercury, which will give adverse resultsdue to an artificial combination of moon and mercury.)

In the same manner, there are a great number of remedies which are very easy to performand effect oriented, but these remedies should be performed under the guidance of anyperson who is blessed with this knowledge to get their optimum results in minimum timeperiod.

The Writer Of Lal KitabPandit Rup Chand Joshithe author of the Red Book was born in village Farwala on 18thJan,1898 and was very much intelligent in his studies; he lost his mother in childhood and was aself made man. Pandit Ji was a man of discipline and very much punctual in his dailyroutine and acquired all this knowledge during service time in Himachal Pardes, but it issaid that some spiritual power helped Pandit Ji in compiling such a great work for benefits ofpeople who are unable to do the rigorous routine of Vedic rituals. This work was publishedand printed in five different editions under the name of Pandit Girdhari Lal Sharma, cousinbrother of Pandit Ji. Pandit Ji always helped humanity by studying and interpretinghoroscopes & hands at his native village Farwala at His house in a Baithak, in front of which

on top of main gate A Beautiful Name Plate (image of which is been attached above), is alsopresent now and people of that village still have due regard and respect for Pandit Ji in theirhearts and remember his good work done for the suffering people of that area. AlthoughPandit Ji left this world on 24th Dec, 1982, but he is still alive in hearts of people.

All these five books are basically an Aashirwad (blessings) for followers of the system of LalKitaband blessings for the eternally suffering humanity as in the last page of every editionofLal Kitabis written a word Blessings (Aashirwad).I bow my head with respect on the feet of such a great person, a holy spirit, who in fact cared forhumanity from core of His heart and request all persons linked with this system to be very sinceretowards this system and try to explore this system with best of their efforts and expand theirknowledge bank for the help of humanity as our respected Pandit Ji did.

In my 28 years of experience ofLal Kitab, I have realized the spiritual message emanating out of thisbook which is not to condemn and criticize other scholars of Astrology, but be like the SUN , who neversets, it is we people, who say, SUN has set in, but then SUN is away from us, giving it`s lightsomewhere else in another part of world, and always a donor, not a taker, with punctuality anddiscipline in life. Imbibing this quality of the Sun is the spiritual message from Lal Kitabwhich I havebeen trying to follow in my life and with folded hands I request the young ones to do the same.
