I'm an Australian who has spent a number of years in India serving in
academic and social service areas.

I'm slowly exploring the topic of naadis, the predictive readings on
palmyra (or palm) leaves purportedly authored by great ancient sages - such
as Brighu, Shuka, Shukra, Agasthya, Kousika, Koumara, Kakbhusandi, Bhoga,
Pullipani, Vashista, Vishwamitra, etc.

Even the slightest bits of information help me to "jigsaw" a larger picture
together. I want to make contact with anyone who knows any shred of
information about these leaves - addresses of naadi jyothishas (readers),
and experiences - convincing or otherwise - of any one who has ever
consulted these leaves.

Barry,

I'd recommend that you join the Agathiyar merging-minds-over-email
community and pursue this there. There has been significant collaboration
going on this and related areas. Have a look at
for more specifics.

You could also try the Indology list - I don't have details on it off the
top of my head - try emailing mani@... who is a member there and
he'll provide you details on following it.
