About the book In the face of near incurability of cancer, medical science today underlines the importance of early diagnosis. By and large we are either ignorant or prone to ignore its early symptoms. But think of a person who has the benefit of an expert astrologer's prophecy about the likelihood of his vulnerability towards this dreaded disease. He is more likely to be alert and cautious to take prompt and thorough care of the early symptoms as compared to a layman. With the help of astrological consultation in time, the otherwise avoidable sudden shock and damage can be reduced, if not completely eliminated. Apart from this, even when the disease has been contracted, astrology with its spiritual ramifications strengthens the patient to overcome the devastating misery by infusing a deep feeling of solace in him. The book is brought out by the leading duo, Mrs. Mridula Trivedi and Mr. T.P. Trivedi, in the scholastic domain of astrology to spread the down to earth message that cancer can, for certain, be overcome. Although due to the absence of definite knowledge about the causes, its complete prevention may not be possible, yet with the support of astrological forewarning, the patient may get adequately forearmed. The book begins with an exploratory survey that acquaints the reader with the origin and development of cancer, bringing into sharp relief the difference between normal and cancerous cells. It dwells into the main causes of cancer of various types, its rapid spread and main symptoms. The book lays emphasis on the correlation between the planets and the diseases known to our sages and cogently places this to the service of man. It concludes, on the basis of a host of actual case studies, that astrology is more useful than any other system of prophecy of diseases. The book embodies a research work based on the study of hundreds of birth charts of cancer patients. This research work is weaved into a well designed pattern in the shape of 28 well researched articles by eminent astrologers that cover various aspects of medical astrology. Amidst the wealth of astrological knowledge, the book presents the time honored wisdom that what cannot be cured, should be endured or overcome and it is this aspect which makes the human science of astrology more humane.

Prologue "Astrology for Overcoming Cancer" is a research work comprising an exhaustive study of hundreds of birth charts of Cancer patients. Many reputed scholars of astrology have done a lot of research exercise in observing the actual astrological reasons, which are responsible to give rise to a chronic disease like Cancer. We have gone through as many as 25 research papers written by the most learned, experienced, reputed and famous scholars of astrology who wrote in The Astrological Magazine' Bengaluru particularly.

The September 1982 issue of The Astrological Magazine' was dedicated to the astrological approach to Cancer disease. Dr. B.V. Raman, Dr. P.S. Sastri, Mr. H.R. Shankar, Dr. Jagannath Rao, Mr. P.S. Iyer, Mr. Surendra Pai, Mr. Cyrus D.F. Abayakoon, Ms. Ivaturi Aghorapati, Dr. Aman, Mr. Chandrakant S. Kothare, Mr. N. Sundra Rajan and Mr. Bepin Behari etc. have contributed their research papers to this Shri Surya Prakash Memorial number. It is astonishing that no two astrologers have given the same opinion about planetary configuration of the suffering by Cancer. :Mere are remarkable differences in the observations among various astrologers and scholars of astrology. We humbly opine that the findings and observations of all such scholars of astrology are of immense value but research work should be continued for perfection and authenticity which may be applicable to all the cases of Cancer patients. Many astrologers have taken Moon chart instead of the birth chart of the Cancer patients for their study because the time of birth was not known. We opine that correct outcome is not possible by considering Moon chart only.

We collected as many as 250 birth charts of Cancer patients from various places, cancer hospitals and friends. There were almost 250 horoscopes of Cancer patients with us at the time of writing this book. We tried our level best to examine all the charts in regard to Cancer. We found that apart from the planetary position in the birth chart of the native, constellation position, navamsa signs etc. must also be considered carefully before reaching any conclusion. In the year 2005, from March to June, one of our students visited Lucknow Cancer Institute and Deptt. of Radiotherapy, KGMC everyday and tried to collect the birth details of Cancer patients. Thus, the horoscopes that are taken by us for our study belong to various patients in addition to our record. These horoscopes belong to the patients ranging from 7 years to 85 years of age who suffered from various types of Cancer. A few survived and others expired a little after the diagnosis.

We have also tried to find out whether the native will survive under such circumstances and also what planetary configuration will save the native and which will not. We have also dealt with survival of the patient, as the first question confronting us is the survival of the native. We have tried to bridge Astrology and Science in a most logical way. Every planet has its own structure, atmosphere and constitution in terms of science where as our 'occult' science explains its perplexities by its nature such as benefic or malefic signification, etc. Learned readers will also be benefited if they try and understand exact behavior, nature, and field of action of the planet. Every planet rules over one or the other part of the body. However, conjunction of two planets mostly influences another part that does not come under the ruler ship of the planet individually. In fact, this comes under the study of medical astrology, which has a large scope. Certain planets if occupy specific signs in particular constellation or navamsa, indicate the tendency towards suffering through Cancer. When more than one planet tend one towards suffering, one is likely to suffer from Cancer. However, Rahu is the most poisonous planet with regard to suffering through Cancer provided it has a negative effect on Mars, Saturn, Jupiter and Mercury. We have propounded our findings in respect of Cancer in various chapters and the same have been applied to the natives who suffered from Cancer. We are very much satisfied that our observations have been found astonishingly correct on almost all cases. We are sure that our readers who have interest in Medical Astrology will be immensely benefited by these observations.

A separate chapter is there on spiritual remedies for the prevention of Cancer. Doctors opine that modern techniques or treatments can cure the patient provided the disease is diagnosed at the 1st or 2nd stage. However, the treatment can be undertaken after the diagnosis of Cancer but the spiritual remedies are possible much earlier, if the combinations are present in the birth chart, which may prevent Cancer in future. It’s true that sincere exercise is to be made in finding out the probable period of occurrence of Cancer. We strongly believe that remedial measures can prevent all the possibilities of Cancer if undertaken much earlier than the expected time. In case of suffering of Cancer if remedial measures are followed properly under the expert guidance of experienced or learned Acharya, absolute cure is possible. One of the chapters deals with the outcome of our experience as far as cure of chronic diseases like Cancer, AIDS, etc. are concerned. A number of Cancer patients who followed these remedial measures have been cured f 11 u y. Doctors denied their survival beyond a month or two but they are leading a healthy life even after 20 years. This is due to miraculous power of mantras. In this chapter we have given the most powerful remedies only which are strong enough to cure even the roots of Cancer.
