What is an Astrologer ? Where is Astrology Education ? Astrology education is given at more than 9 universities and 5000 colleges throughout India. However this education is not given outside India at all. Therefore a major part of public outside India doesn't know about it. In India this subject is taught by the government at the universities specialized in 13 traditional Sanskrit subjects and called Sanskrit Universities. These 13 Sanskrit Subjects include Ayurveda, Veda and Yoga too. These subjects are taught from the middle school, high school and further at the college and universities. After completing Post-Graduation in Astrology one gets a degree os Jyotish Acharya (MA Astrology) awarded. Thereafter you can also do Ph.D. in Astrology. A person having studied Jyotish Acharya and passed the examination is authorized to be an astrologer or an astrology teacher. There are thousands of scholars in and outside India who have got this academic qualification. But they still don't count more than 5% in the astrologers practicing astrology in India and abroad. This means 95% of the Astrologers haven't studied astrology but they just exercise this without such qualification and authorization. Some of them write honorary title such as Jyotish Samrat etc and some buy non-academic titles of Jyotish-Acharya. Several people have become astrologer without having learned it and some claim that they have learnt it from some (fake) Baba or Sage, what is not true. Ved Bhawan condemns this type of malpractice and encourages the astrologers who have studied this subject. There is a major fact that Astrologers from the universities hardly know some words of English while so called astrologer who make English website hardly know some words of Sanskrit. That means that majority of People (98%) who promote themselves as astrologer and who speak English, are not really a Sanskrit Scholar or an astrologer. At the same time the real astrologers in India remain in their villages and can't promote themselves due to lack of English knowledge and knowledge of websites or technology. Ved Bhawan brings these scholars forward by providing them platform. Anyway, Vedas and Astrology were not written in English but in Sanskrit, so we have to prefer Sanskrit Scholars. Selection of Astrologers & Pandits at Ved Bhawan Ved Bhawan has a method and procedure for appointment of a salaried or freelance astrologer. Astrologers are pointed to give lessons, to give consultations and to write articles in our magazine , books or on websites. As this all has to make with knowledge, we have several barriers to check the knowledge whom we are going to appoint on these responsible post. The astrologers are selected by newspaper advertisements or by interviews at Sanskrit Colleges were several students finish their university study. Besides the degree we also check whether the person also know what he has on papers. Then we take practical tests and finally we train the astrologers to be able to give meaningful consultations and useful advises to the clients. The astrologers are classified in 6 Grades (from A to F) based on their qualifications, experiences, knowledge, intelligence and success-rates. These grades define the job profile of astrologer and the wages that he enjoys. Astrologers with A, B, C, Grade only, are authorized. to give consultations or lessons to our clients outside India.
