Welcome to my home page. I have put together some of my published papers, reviews and musings from a long, public stint in environmental studies and community rights and the enriching experiences of my esoteric and hidden self as Tarotist and Vedic Astrologer. Publicly, I worked as a social scientist specialising in environment, law, rights and the history of ideas. Privately, I collect tarot decks, dabble in I-Ching, study and teach Jyotish and am actively involved with Sri Jagannath Center and the Devaguru Brihaspati Centre. I am a certified Jaimini Scholar and have started teaching the Jaimini Upadesha Sutras through the Devaguru Brihaspati Centre.

Relevant lectures, class notes, ruminations are jotted down for your perusal. My work in progress involves digging deep into Mantra Shastra and rediscovering the mythographical delights of the puranas. Browse through my favourite links in the Links section. Those who are interested in a reading, please visit the Readings page. If you have a query, do not hesitate to contact me. I always respond, though a bit belatedly, because of my travels. I would love to hear your critical comments. Do Send them to me at sarbani@srijagannath.org. This site is under construction.
