Laal Kitab (लाल किताब) / Red Book

There are many systems of astrology prevalent in our country, namely Vadik jyotish, Naadi Jyotish, KP system, Ramal System, Palmistry, Numerology etc. but today we are going to introduce you to such a system of astrology, whose name even is taken with great respect in the field of astrology in our country. It is called 'Red Book/ लाल किताब'. Generally, Jyotish is known as the 'Third eye/ तृत्य नेत्र' of the Veda. This statement itself gives such knowledge an extremely deep meaning. On understanding 'Red Book/ लाल किताब', one gets an idea why Jyotish has been referred to as 'Third eye/ तृत्य नेत्र' of the Veda.

He expressed his great anguish over people spreading wrong information about the real facts of Laal Kitab (Red Book) these days. Many people are seen who claim that the creator of Laal Kitab, Pandit Rupchand Joshi himself gave certain souveniers to them himself. His son Pandit Som Duttt ji categorically told us that all those claims are totally false and just create confusion in public mind.

All of you must be thinking as to why I am writing all this regarding this confusion here in this blog. So let us discuss this matter first. On our study of Lal Kitab, one found that it is a very high spiritual book and it gives full credibility to saying that 'Jyotish Vedanam Chakshu (ज्योतिष वेदानां चक्षु)'. There are three main powers in Spirituality, namley Iccha Shakti/ इच्छा शक्ति (power of desire), Gyaan Shakti/ ज्ञान शक्ति (power of knowledge) and kriya Shakti/ क्रिया शक्ति (power of action) respectively. When we talk of knowledge, we must know that it comes under two categories, Par/ पर an Apar/ अपर. Apar/ अपर pertains to the world and Par/ पर pertains to knowledge of creator or the absolute. In the field of spirituality Par/ पर knowledge is the real knowledge. Without it, it is not possible to achieve the fourth fruit i.e 'Moksha/ मोक्ष', which is the real purpose of human existance. This part of knowledge (of third eye of Veda) is referred to as 'Jyotish', can be associated with Laal Kitab (Red book). In the Laal Kitab, common wordly things existing all around us are used to achieve both worldly (लोक) and other wordly (परलोक) goals. This is one of the easiest way of understanding oneself. 

All the sadhanas or spiritual practices mentioned in various religions in the whole world are nothing but purification because the inherent entity which we humans seek, is established inside each one of us. Due to three veils of ignorance (Anvik, Mayik and Karmik), we are unable to experience that. With the help of various purification method, we remove these veils and then atma established in each one of us shines forth on its resplendent glory. In the yogic language the purification is generally referred to as Five-Elemental-Cleansing (Panch Tattva Shodhan). Laal Kitab has mentioned certain easy methods to achieve such puriifcation in the language of planets. These methods help a sadhak to achieve success in cleansing, of such vrittis or attributes, associated with the 50 matrika varnas established in all of us. Through this Red Book such goals can be achieved very easily in no other better way. Its like god's grace in one's spiritual journey.

The whole 'Joshi family' always remained away from lime light without any show off or greed to earn anything out of it, which is the basic principle for a practitoner of this method. This is for the first time that most respected duo of Pandit Som Dutt Joshi ji (son) and Pandit Iqbal Chand Joshi (grand son) of Pandit Rup Chand Joshi, came forward to tell that it is not good to mess around with knowledge of Laal Kitab.

It was my heartiest desire to introduce this great family lineage to all of you, readers of this blog and your known ones (through you all). If all you will desire, in future we can discuss on various spiritual aspects of it. In astrology, Laal Kitab is the best system to understand one's self. 

A link is being shared here of small video, anchored by Ribhukant Goswami, we made for all to have darshan of both son Pandit Som Dutt Joshi ji and grand son Pandit Chand Iqbal Joshi ji of Pandit Rup Chand Joshi. Though this video is in Hindi, which may be difficult to understand for our foreign language followers, discussions which we will post, as and when in future, will be in English language for comprehending various points discussed therein.
