A complete path from the first principles to predictive mastery — carrying the lineage of the masters into lessons any curious mind can follow. "What you have learned, pass on to ten others."
Cross the shared Foundation, then walk freely into either school — the Vedic (sidereal) or the Western (tropical), each with its own lessons, Saṅgam checkpoints and capstone. The benches are not yet even between them: the workshop was built on the Indian side first, so several Western rungs drill on a shared instrument, and the West’s own weighing, architecture and lords of the year are worked inside their lessons and gathered in the full reading rather than at a bench of their own. Where both are mastered, the synthesis opens. Your progress is kept on this device.

Prefer to wander? The full catalogue stays open below — a school just gives it an order, a rhythm, and a way to mark your ground.

This card is a marker on your shelf, not the paper. The Pramāṇa-patra is the printable record — and it is unsigned, because nobody here invigilated the work.

The masters taught the sky as a language. Every graha and star is a letter; a planet placed in a sign and house becomes a word; dignity and aspect are the grammar that binds them — and when all three meet, the heavens speak a sentence you can read. Our whole curriculum climbs those four rungs, one at a time.

Every lesson and instrument of the school gathered in one place — the shared Foundation, the two schools, and the synthesis. Each row is marked by the shelf it belongs to; wander freely, or follow a school above for a rhythm.
Doctrine tells you what a rule is; only a chart in front of you tells you whether you can see it. The room deals a nativity — a real moment, searched until the rule you are drilling is genuinely present in it — asks what it holds, and marks you against the chart itself. Every answer prints its working.
A short examination for every unit of the school — choose-one, choose-all, true & false, fill-the-blank and match-the-pairs — marked the moment you finish, each answer traced back to its lesson.
Four instruments for the part of the craft that must become reflex — the marks themselves, and the names behind them. They sit here rather than on the Workshop bench, because they are not readings: they are practice, and practice belongs in the school.
Every lesson hands you a working tool — spin the wheel, drag a graha, scrub the years. Twenty-three instruments, free at the bench; they all meet in the Observatory, where your own chart is read whole.
