A modern and readable treatment of Muhurta in considerable detail. As well as the expected chapters, there is advice on how to choose a Muhurta for several unusual matters. A number of case studies are given.
A book on electional astrology. In his preface, K.N. Rao writes, ....All that I have done is ask the author, K.K. Joshi, to writ an excellent text book on muhurta in a modern style. I also asked him to modernize some of the ancient methods of explanations in a slightly different & understandable way without disturbing the classicism of this great branch of astrology. It must be remembered that man has some will of his own through which he creates his own destiny in the area known as kriyaman karma which I have discussed in my book Astrology & Karma. By making use of muhurta, a person can improve his good fortune or minimize his misfortune. By avoiding a bad muhurta he can similarly prevent the intensification of his misfortunes.
