Summary

Tree Medicine explores the fascinating connection between trees and human health, revealing how trees have provided crucial ingredients for both traditional remedies and modern pharmaceuticals. Highlighting that some of the most effective medicines originate in tree bark, leaves, and roots, the book argues for a deeper understanding of tree biochemistry to unlock new drug discoveries. It also emphasizes the importance of sustainable harvesting, especially considering issues like antibiotic resistance and the need for ecologically sound options. 

 
The book examines the historical use of tree-derived medicines, showcasing examples like willow bark's role as a precursor to aspirin and quinine from cinchona trees for treating malaria. It progresses by introducing phytochemistry and ethnobotany, then explores specific trees and their medicinal applications, delves into scientific research supporting their efficacy, and addresses sustainable harvesting challenges. 

 
By integrating scientific rigor with an appreciation for traditional knowledge, Tree Medicine offers a holistic perspective.

    We always think why certain combination or planets give good results in one horoscope and bad result in another horoscope. So, the secret lies in ascendant for example for libra ascendant exalted Jupiter can give good results in career but for Gemini ascendant exalted Jupiter might give lot of problems because for libra ascendant it is benefic and for Gemini ascendant it is strong maraka planet. So, this is the big secret in prediction we need to predict every ascendant combination differently. There are 12 different ascendants from Aries to Pisces. Each planet behaves and act differently as they own different houses in horoscope for each ascendant. So, in this book I am describing fruitful yoga’s and spoilt yoga’s for all ascendants. Which planet can give raj yoga or benefic results and which planet can give negative results? In Vedic astrology analyzing every ascendant differently is the key to predict the horoscope.
    This is one of my best presentation and I hope you will love reading it. Welcome to my world of Jyotish and divine knowledge.

    Man is not only a physical entity but represents a cogent expression or an equilibrium of forces, so to say, stimulated by certain higher principles. The zodiacal signs govern these principles also. We know that the signs are grouped into three types, cardinal, fixed and mutable. These three sets of signs govern the three chief modes of expression of the vital body (Pran. amaya), thus complicating the mechanisms of the human constitution. The cardinal signs denote activity and govern the functional activities of life. Circulation, respiration, digestion and excretion and such other vital activities are controlled by these signs. The occultist should gain hold over these functions in order to overcome the effects of the cardinal signs. The fixed signs govern the emotions and the desires of man. Wish, desire, anger, aversion, attraction and repulsion are governed by these signs. The behaviour nature of man which lies beyond the control of his intelligence and understanding comes under their control.
    In this book I am trying my best to explain the complete details about signs and their secrets which is hidden in universe. This is ancient wisdom and I believe you will love reading and learn a lot from this book if you are interested in the world of astrology.

    I have used nakshatras from many decades so in this book I am using 27 nakshatra from Ashwini to Revati and providing some Stories of mythology which can be used on horoscope while predicting. These stories can be used in prediction and easy. All these stories are based on experience of many decades. I am expecting every reader might love this Stories. Mythological Stories of nakshatras are very important because every techniques of prediction is based on mythological stories only. For example Ashwini are twins so if 5th lord in Ashwini it gives twin children to natives. Like this all techniques in horoscope can be derived from Mythological stories of nakshatras.
