Dasha Nirnay (Vimshottsri Dasha A Mystery)  (Paperback, Z.Ansari K.N.Rao)

Sought after by many for his selfless astrological counselling as he charged no fee but, helped people with his astrology, when he found time, Mr. Ansari was already a well established astrologer in 1978, I met him first that year when I came to Delhi on a transfer. I was then teaching astrology to a small batch of students in the office after office hours which included M.N. Kedar and B.P. Malviya who had to learn astrology from barest rudiments. I remember how a grateful mother had laid before him a blank cheque for him to fill in the amount and he had refused to accept anything. She wanted to have a male baby. Mr. Ansari examined her horoscope and assured her that she would have a male child. On the fulfilment of his prediction, he was offered whatever sum he wanted from the rich couple. In course of time, Mr. Ansari did a deep research on Kaal Sarpa yoga. From here the arishta or the malefic influences of planets creating, from small mishaps to major disasters in one\'s life, interested him. He made many predictions of this nature, which, though gloomy, did help those who took his astrology in the right spirit, to be prepared for something unpleasant in their lives.
