बृहत्पाराशर होराशास्त्र · Foundation Cohort · Live · 12 weeks · max 12 seats
Learn to read any janma-kuṇḍalīrigorously — from the sovereign engine's own lineage.
The BPHS Foundation curriculum taught live by Pardeep Sehrawat (The Architect) himself. English-medium. Sessions recorded. NRI-accessible.
Learn the mathematics and the classical text — Bṛhat-Parāśara-Horā-Śāstra — in a small, serious cohort. No mysticism theatre; derivations, primary sources, and your own computed charts.
Built on 100% Bhāratīya math · Bharat Ephemeris engine · Zenodo DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20024273 (v3 · 230 propositions published) · “I do not predict. I locate.” — Pardeep Sehrawat
वास्तुकारस्य वचनम् · The Architect on Why He Teaches
“The engine computes. The śāstra has the grammar. What is missing is the reader — someone with enough rigour to hold a chart and not flinch from what is written. That reader is what this cohort produces.”

अधिकारी-विचारः · Adhikārī-Vicāra · Who This Is For
The cohort is not for everyone. It is for the seeker who wants to understand the architecture, not be handed a horoscope.
◆You want to read a janma-kuṇḍalī rigorously — not receive a prediction, but understand the architecture.
◆You have some exposure to jyotiṣa vocabulary (nakṣatra, rāśi, graha) or strong enough curiosity to acquire it fast.
◆You are comfortable studying in English and can commit time across 12 consecutive weeks.
◆You are in India, the diaspora, or anywhere in the world — sessions are recorded so every time zone is served.
पाठ्यक्रमः · Pāṭhyakrama · The Curriculum Arc
The spine · रीढ़
Five modules across 12 weeks. Every session anchored to an actual BPHS chapter or a named śāstric source — no invented tradition.
01Introduction to the 27 Nakṣatras नक्षत्र-परिचयःThe 27 lunar mansions — their names, four pādas each, presiding devatā, and the Vedic source of each mantra.
02The 12 Rāśis and Their Lords राशि-चक्रम्The 12-fold zodiac — each rāśi's lord, element (tattva), mobility, gender, and the exaltation/debilitation degrees of the grahas.
03Nature and Significations of the 9 Grahas ग्रह-स्वभावःThe 9 grahas — their natural kāraka-roles, gender, tattva, mitra-śatru (friendship-enmity), and behavioural significations from BPHS Ch. 2–7.
04The Five Limbs of the Day पञ्चाङ्ग-गणनाTithi, vāra, nakṣatra, yoga, karaṇa — the 5-limb computation that locates any moment in the sacred time-grid.
05Chart Construction — Sidereal vs Tropical, Ayanāṃśa कुण्डली-निर्माणम्How a Vedic chart is built — sidereal vs tropical reference, the Lahiri ayanāṃśa, ascendant computation, and the houses-vs-signs distinction.

Market context
ICAS Foundation / BVB comparable levels: ₹7,000–₹15,000
Western Jyotiṣa academy equivalent: USD 300–500
This cohort: ₹14,999 — Pardeep directly, max 12 seats, live
No franchise fee, no middle tier, no syllabus sold separately
The price is the floor for a 12-week live-instructed cohort with one-to-one practicum feedback. It is not a discount — it is the actual cost of the Architect's time at small-cohort scale.
14-day refund guarantee
Attend all sessions. If by the final session you do not feel you can read a janma-kuṇḍalī more rigorously than before — say so within 14 days and receive a full refund, no question asked. The reading discipline is the product; if it failed, you should not keep paying for it.
प्रश्नोत्तरम् · Praśnottaram · Common Questions
Who teaches the sessions?
Pardeep Sehrawat — The Architect — teaches every session personally. There is no hired tutor, no teaching assistant running the live hour. If you have a question, the person on screen is the same person who built the engine and authored the substrate research program (230 propositions published at Zenodo; 890 in the internal catalog, publication pending).
What classical texts does the cohort cover?
The cohort moves through the BPHS Foundation curriculum: BPHS (Ch. 1-3, 27-28 (substrate fundamentals)) · PHALADIPIKA (Ch. 1, 2, 22). Every session cites the chapter and verse-range being discussed. No invented tradition, no vague lineage claims.
I am in the UK / USA / Australia. Can I attend live?
Every session is recorded and uploaded within 24 hours. You can attend live or catch the recording — either path gives you full cohort access. The Q&A portion can be submitted asynchronously by email and Pardeep responds before the next session.
Is ₹14,999 refundable?
Yes. If you attend all sessions and do not feel you can read a janma-kuṇḍalī more rigorously than before, say so within 14 days of the final session and receive a full refund — no question asked. The discipline of the reading is the product; if it did not deliver, you should not keep paying for it.
What is the difference between /learn and this cohort?
The /learn paths are self-paced, free study guides — text, exercises, engine links. The cohort adds Pardeep live: he walks the chart, takes your questions in real time, and grades a practicum chart-reading at the end. Self-paced study gives you the map; the cohort gives you someone who has walked the territory every week for years.
What do I need before applying?
Curiosity and a minimum 8 hours per week. Basic familiarity with the nine grahas and twelve rāśis helps but is not required — Pardeep begins from first principles. No Sanskrit grammar required at this level.
