Sanjay Rath

Sanjay Rath (born August 7 1963 at Sambalpur, Orissa) is an Indian astrologer. He comes from a traditional family of astrologers from Bira Balabhadrapur Sasan village in Puri, Orissa, which trace their lineage back to Shri Achyuta Das (Sri Acyutananda). Sanjay Rath studied under his uncle, the late Pandit Kasinath Rath. His grandfather, the late Pandit Jagannath Rath, was the Jyotish Ratna of Orissa and authored many books on Jyotisha.

Sanjay Rath became a graduate of mechanical engineering and joined the Government of India in July 1991. He was promoted to Under Secretary in the Ministry of Defence in October 1997. After the encouraging reception of his translation of "Maharshi Jaimini's Upadesha Sutras" and the growing number of students, Sanjay Rath resigned from government service in September 2000 to devote himself completely to Jyotisha.

Teaching Jyotish

Sanjay Rath uses Brihat Parasara Hora Shastra, Jaimini Upadesa Sutras, Brihat Jataka and Saravali as the foundations of Jyotisha and teaches from various other Jyotish scripture and sacred literature such as the Bhagavad Gita, Upanisads, Puranas, etc. His holistic teaching and writings span across various schools of thought, although not creating his own brand of astrology. He is a strict follower of the teachings of the ancient seers and is also a keen promoter for research and further development of the subject. To promote the teachings of his parampara Sanjay Rath has formed a non-profit organization called Shri Jagannath Center where his advanced students are helping to spread Jyotisha in a way that keeps its spiritual roots. Students learn not only about Jyotisha, but also mantra shastra, mudra, pranayama, meditation, and the Sanatana Dharma.

Present Work

Sanjay Rath is presently working on translating the ancient Jyotish scriptures relative to his understanding of their meaning according to his East Indian background.

He is the Chairman of SJC Education & Research Center, Nagpur which offers Bachelors Degrees and Masters Degrees in Vedic Astrology under MOU with Kavikulaguru Kalidas Sanskrit University.

He has a paid astrological study course offered through SoHamsa and various workshops available through the Deva Guru Brihaspati Center [http://www.sohamsa.com]

ri Jagannath Center

Sanjay Rath originally founded the Sri Jagannath Vedic Center (SJVC) in 1998 as a platform for open discussion about the teachings of his Jyotish tradition. Due to differences in opinion among various teachers he left the organization and started the Sri Jagannath Center (SJC) in 2001.

The Sri Jagannath Center was established with the objective of teaching Jyotish according to the ancient Sanskrit classics written in India by maharishis (great sages) like Parasara and Jaimini. SJC has created a revival of people working to understand classical Indian astrology.

Sanjay Rath has trained students in the approach taught through the Jyotish parampara of Sri Achyuta Dasa of Jagannath, Puri. His teachers form non-profit SJC study circles which now exist in many countries around the world. SJC uses internet services such as yahoo groups to create forums for international discussion between various astrologers.
