Welcome, this page is for those who have purchased a copy of Science of Light. These materials are to deepen your experience of Vedic astrology and help you integrate the information. Some chapters have small MP3 lessons from May 2007, more practice exercises, additional PDF materials to go deeper into the particular topic. There are also MP3’s of mantras made by one of my Sanskrit teachers which is enunciated clearly and slowly to aid in proper pronunciation and practice. Note: These are old recordings. Presently there is the 6 week Introduction Course which is intended to introduce a student to the Science of Light material, and does so in a very individualized manner. These courses run regularly through out the year.
