First Translation

No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.

The 'Ramala Navaratna' (Nine Gems of Geomancy) by Param Sukh Upadhyaya is a 19th-century Sanskrit treatise on geomancy. Extensive searches in scholarly catalogs (UNESCO Index Translationum), Open Library, and Google Books confirm that while the work exists in Sanskrit and Hindi editions (often published by Khemraj Shrikrishnadas), no English translation has ever been published. The title 'Nine Gems of Geomancy' is a literal translation of the Sanskrit title and does not correspond to any existing English publication.
