According to Hindu tradition, all consultations with the Bhrigu-Samhita are preordained, and the moment of arrival is the key to discovery of the correct leaf, which indicates not only the life pattern and destiny of the inquirer, but also his name in a Sanskrit equivalent of the language of the inquirer.
The astrologers first compiled a graph, rather like a Western horoscope, but featuring the date of Lane's arrival at the house.
On July 22, 1978, Lane was taken by his friend Swami Yogeshwar Ananda Saraswati to a house in a back street of Hoshiarpur, where two astrologers had charge of a large set of Bhrigu-Samhita leaves tied in bundles. At the time Lane was researching the Radhasoami movement in India, on which he has become a world-famous authority. In Fate magazine (June 1982), David Christopher Lane, a noted scholar of spiritual movements and cults, described a personal consultation with Hindu astrologers in Hoshiarpur, Punjab, India, who were custodians of a set of Bhrigu-Samhita leaves. Indian astrologers reported using the Bhrigu-Samhita include Pandit Devakinandan Shastri of Swarsati Phatak, in the old city of Benares and Pandit Biswanath Bannerjee of Sadananda Road (near the Ujjala movie house) in Calcutta. In addition to his fee, the astrologer usually proposes the sponsorship of a special religious rite to propitiate the gods for past sins. These are supposed to give the name of the client compiled from Sanskrit syllables approximating names in any language, with details of past, present, and future life, as well as previous incarnations. A printed version is said to comprise some 200 volumes, but most Indian astrologers who use the system work with loose manuscript pages. No complete manuscript is known, but large sections are rumored to exist somewhere in India. He compiled this information in his great treatise on astrology, originally written on palm leaves. As the Bhrigus were a sacred race, it is difficult to identify the compiler of the Bhrigu-Samhita, but according to legend he lived 10,000 years ago and had a divine vision of everyone who was to be born in every country of the world. The original Bhrigu was a Vedic sage and is mentioned in the Mahabharata. An ancient Hindu astrological treatise, said to contain details of millions of lives, with horoscopes drawn for the time of consultation.
