If you are a believer in astrology, chances are you have already consulted famed astrologer Ashok Purohit or at least cherish a hope of doing so.

Ashok had stunned the Cyprus citizens by correctly predicting snowfall in May, a month otherwise characterized by hot, sunny weather. The occasion was an event called the Indian Food Festival, organized by Mumbaikar Rudy Crasto in association with Gulf Air. The event was held to promote Indian arts like rangoli, mehendi and astrology.

It was during this prestigious fest that his fame began to spread internationally – nearly 1500-2000 Cyprians consulted him and sought his advice on their past, present and future. That the scientifically-oriented Cyprians were not just in awe but also found solutions to their problems is one of the many testimonies to his amazing prowess.

All of 32 years, Ashok was introduced in to the field of astrology at the tender age of 8 by his father Subraya Acharya who was a staunch believer in astrology himself, by enrolling him at Kaikamba Vinayaka Temple, Car Street, Mangalore. Born in Perdoor near Udupi, Ashok now lives in Mumbai (which is his ‘karmabhumi’ according to his ‘jathaka’) with his wife and two children.

Disciple of Narwe Nagendra Bhat (Shukranadi Jyothish, Sringeri) Purohit is a scholar of astrology and Sanskrit. Ask him about astrology and its relevance, he strongly advocates the belief that a man’s destiny is decided at his birth by the position of the planets and the lines of the palm.

A story goes that while traveling to Mumbai, he was sitting next to a person who claimed himself to be a cloth merchant. A natural curiosity at learning Ashok profession led his fellow passenger to have his future predicted. One look at the person’s jathaka told Ashok that the person was in fact a goldsmith and not a merchant. Highly impressed, the man, whose name was Shet, invited him to his house and later with the help of his friend Srinivas he was able to put the name of Ashok Purohit in the ears of Mangaloreans, Maharashtrians and people from all over India including celebrities.

His clients’ list is impressive – from the late Dr Rajkumar to other Sandalwood stars like Guru Kiran, Bhavya, Sachin Suvarna, director Nanjundi and others, more than 90 per cent of hoteliers and members belonging to communities such as Billawas and Devadigas regularly seek his advice on Vaastu, jathaka and other issues. The clients are so many that one needs appointment to consult the miracle man.
