Dr. Avanendra is a passionate traveller-adventurer, having an immense respect for the nation, army & military, and strongly stands for social welfare activities providing his social service and support to several bodies, and with an UNGC body as a joint secretary. Being a social activist, he was very active during the 2020 COVID crisis. His other hobbies are reading books, photography, music, driving, fitness, shooting & archery.
Avanendra Pratap Sinharaj hails from Jharkhand, he comes from a noble family & academically strong background. He said, he chose a very different subjective interest because including his younger brother, he already has seven engineers and three doctors in the family, mostly in the government services. His paternal side, all grandfathers served the army, so finally it was quite unusual and difficult to choose such a subject professionally. Talking about his mother, a retired govt. officer, as a great source of his energy and his maternal grandfather, a well known engineer of his time, as having great influence and inspiration upon him. He further credits him for sowing the seed of inclination towards spirituality and his paternal grandfather, an army man, for his passion for social welfare. Remembering his first Guru, Late Sri. Manoj Shastri Pandey, who gave him the ritualistic knowledge and guidance of Sri Devi Sadhana & anusthans from a very early age. He says, he was an eminent scholar and gem of a person. Talking about his students, he says, I am very precise in making students & teaching, because it’s about what’s the purpose and with whom you’re exchanging your teachings, knowledge and ideas.
Dr. Avanendra Pratap is a widely acclaimed scholar, bestowed with several National-International awards and appreciations. In 2021, he received the prestigious “Yuva Shri Samman” awarded by the golden hands of PadmaShri Dignitaries and Indian Govt. Secretaries in Mumbai, Maharashtra, for his research & contributions. He received several accolades and appreciations from Chief Justices, renowned dignitaries and respected scholars. However, he keeps himself quite a low profile in business and marketing aspects of astrology, and is very selective as well in choosing clients & cases, keeping the essence and dignity of this divine science & art. Students, couples, Govt. officials, politicians, corporates, working professionals, film & television, media houses vie for his time and have deep faith in his knowledge. Although, he’s counseling clients all over the world, people from the U.S, France also visited his residence. He believes, “We can’t glorify the complexity, personal & serious issues of people. Astrology is a secret science and art. It’s a divine subject, studied with the great parameters of dedication, honesty, privacy and secrecy. It is a psychological cosmic calculations, intuition based counselling with the Karmic actions of human life and mundane. Sometimes it affects our mental plane (Astrologers) as well because we are dealing with someone’s deep hidden karmas and desires. Similarly, Vastu is also the blueprint of our horoscope, whatever we do (Karma) in our house affects our birth chart, positively or negatively. He said, my own residential house consists of 14 rooms approx, for an experiment and research, every time I place something or certain activity in a specific room or place, I observe and experience a significant effect just after a few days. He further added; To be honest, astrology is not for business & sale, and at the same time the world is also totally globalised and commercial, but we should also maintain the dignity and secure the essence of this divine subject and wisdom of our ancient scholars & great sages. We can’t market or sell everything for the sake of name-fame, money or glamour. India is a land of divinity, wisdom and visionaries, we call it Tapo-Bhumi, i.e the land of scholars & researchers. If someone wants to practice, there should be strong ethics, and at least some strict rules, conditions and regulations otherwise in the name of ancient science, superstitions and fear will be served more. On the other hand, the Jātaka (client) should also respect the guru – shishya parampara and must understand the value of dakshina i.e proper fees for the hard work, time & dedication of a Jyotishacharya. Talking about the current transits, according to his astrological concepts and belief, this is the best time to do free service, donation & charity as well chanting mantras via rosary, because Ketu, the planet of “let go and deep spirituality” is transiting on Virgo in Hasta Nakshatra that symbolises “Hands” and Rahu in Pisces, itself the 12th sign of zodiac, that denotes charity & donations. The symbol of Pisces, “Two fish in the opposite directions”, defines, “whatever you will give to this cosmic, will come back to you”.
On failure and success, He simply says, Life is a lesson, you learn it when you fall and the moment you decide to stand up; you rise, you succeed. Currently, he’s composing Stotras & ashtakams, as well as writing a book on Devi Tantra. As an astrologist, he mentions, “I am a lifetime student of this divine subject, the Cosmos is my divine tutor”, Search, Research, Experience, Repeat…
