  • “Sri Jyoti Star is used for professional work and its templates and versatile design features are outstanding. Multiple chart views and everything can be customised.

The Muhurta and Panchanga tools are particularly useful and well framed. So, take my congratulations! ” Vania L M Marinelli, Brazil

  • Good Evening. Let me first begin with saying that the experience with Shri Jyoti Star is fascinating to all of us.
    If I have to cite two features in SJS that will beat every other feature in any other Vedic software product in the market – I would say it is the The CUSTOM YOGAS CREATE and SEARCH & The CLASSICAL YOGAS TIME SEARCH.

    The former is very exhaustive and I can certainly understand the amount of hard work you must have put in to create such complex conditions from various dimensions. I am writing a lot of custom rules based on my experience and the rules given in the classical texts and it is becoming really addictive.:)

    I simply love the drag and drop of planets to Signs feature in the CLASSICAL YOGAS TIME SEARCH.  It lets one go back and forth in time indefinitely and search the date based on the combination defined in the Sign Chart provided. Truly Commendable ! We played around and it was fascinating !!

    Please do consider this as a positive feedback for SJS and if you like it, you could put it up on your website for other customers to know the power of SJS. We strongly recommend the product simply for these two features although there are many others that I can cite. True value for money. We all are happy with the purchase. – Vinod Kumar Ramu, Chennai
