Ch. 20. Effects of Dharm Bhava
(1) Combinations for Fortunes. O Brahmin, now listen to the effects of Dharm Bhava. One
will be fortunate (or affluent), if Dharm' s Lord is in Dharm Bhava with strength.
(2) Should Guru be in Dharm Bhava, while Dharm' s Lord is in an angle and Lagn's Lord is
endowed with strength, one will be extremely fortunate.
3. Fortunate (Affluent) Father. If Dharm' s Lord is with strength, as Sukr is in Dharm, while
Guru is in an angle from Tanu Bhava, the native's father is fortunate.
4. Indigent Father. If Dharm's Lord is debilitated, while the 2 n and/or the 4 l from Dharm
Bhava is occupied by Mangal, the native's father is poor.
5. Long-living Father. Should Dharm's Lord be in deep exaltation, while Sukr is in an angle
from Tanu Bhava and Guru is in the 9 th from Navahs Lagn, the father of the native will enjoy
along span of life.
6. Royal Status for Father. If Dharm's Lord is an angle and receives a Drishti from Guru, the
native's father will be a king endowed with conveyances, or be equal to a king.
7. Wealthy and Famous Father. Should Dharm's Lord be in Karm Bhava, while Karm's Lord
receives a Drishti from a benefic the native's father will be very rich and famous.
8-9. Virtuous and Devoted to Father. Should Surya be in deep exaltation, as Dharm's Lord is
in Labh Bhava, the native will be virtuous, dear to the king and devoted to father. If Surya is
in a trine from Lagna, while Dharm's Lord is in Yuvati in yuti with, or receiving a Drishti
from Guru, the native will be devoted to his father.
10. Fortunes etc. Acquisition of fortunes, conveyances and fame will follow the 32 nd year of
age, if Dharm's Lord is in Dhan, while Dhan's Lord is in Dharm.
11. Inimical to Father. There will be mutual enmity between the father and the native, if
Lagn's Lord is in Dharm Bhava, but with the Lord of Ari. Further, the native's father will be
of contemptible disposition.
12. Begged Food. If Karm's Lord and Sahaj's Lord are bereft of strength, while Dharm's
Lord is in fall, or combust the native will go begging for his food.
13-25. Combinations for Father's Death. The father of the native would have passed away
prior to the native's birth, if Surya is in Ari, Randhr, or Vyaya Bhava, as Randhr's Lord is in
Dharm Bhava, Vyaya's Lord is in Tanu Bhava and Ari's Lord is in Putr Bhava. Should Surya
be in Randhr Bhava, while Randhr's Lord is in Dharm, the native's father will pass away
within a year of his birth. If the Lord of Vyaya Bhava is in Dharm Bhava, while Dharm's
Lord is in its debilitation Navahs, the native's father will face his end during the 3 rd , or the
16 th year of the native. Death of father will occur in the 2 nd , or the 12 th year, if Lagn's Lord is
in Randhr Bhava, as Randhr's Lord is with Surya. Should Rahu be in the 8 th from Dharm, as
Surya is in the 9 th from Dharm, death of father will take place in the 16 th , or the 18 th year of
the native. If Sani is in the 9 th from Candr, as Surya is with Rahu, the native's father will die
in the 7 l , or the 19* year of the native. The native in his 44 l year will lose his father, if
Dharm's Lord is in Vyaya, as Vyaya's Lord is in Dharm. If Lagn's Lord is in Randhr Bhava,
as Candr is in Surya's Navahs, the native in his 35 th , or 41 st year will lose his father. One will
lose his father in the 50 th year, if Surya, being the Lord of Dharm, is conjunct Mangal and
Sani. If Surya is in the 7 th from Dharm Bhava, as Rahu is in the 7 th from Sahaj Bhava, the 6 th ,
or 25 th year of the native will be fatal for father. If Sani is in the 7 th from Randhr Bhava, as
Surya is in the 7 th from Sani, the ages of 21, 26, or 30 will be fatal for the father. If Dharm's
Lord is in its debilitation Rasi, while his dispositor is in Dharm Bhava, the native will lose his
father at the age of 26, or 30. Thus the Jyotishis may know the effects.
26. Fortunes. One will enjoy abundant fortunes, if Sukr is in deep exaltation and be in the
company of Dharm's Lord, as Sani is in Sahaj.
27-28. Fortunate Periods. Abundant fortunes be acquired after the 20 th year, if Dharm has
Guru in it, as its Lord is in an angle from Lagn. Should Budh be in his deep exaltation, as
Dharm' s Lord is in Dharm itself, abundant fortunes will be earned after the 36 th year.
29. Should Lagn's Lord be in Dharm, as Dharm' s Lord is in Lagn and Guru is in Yuvati, there
will be gains of wealth and conveyances.
30. Lack of Fortunes. If Rahu is in the 9 th from Dharm Bhava, as his dispositor is in Randhr
Bhava and Dharm' s Lord is in fall, the native be devoid of fortunes.
3 1 . Food by Begging. Should Sani be in Dharm Bhava along with Candr, as Lagn's Lord is in
fall, the native will acquire food by begging.
32. O Brahmin, these are the effects related to Dharm Bhava. I have explained briefly. These
may be estimated with the help of the state of the Lords of Lagn and Dharm Bhava and in
other manners as well.

effects of Surya and other Grahas should be wisely conceived by their positions, relations and
Drishtis apart from their strength, or weakness.
Ch. 26. Evaluation of Drishtis of Grahas
Ch. 26. Evaluation of Drishtis of Grahas
I. O Glorious, it is said, that Drishtis (of Grahas) and their strengths are to be known in
deciding the effects. How many kinds are these? Please clarify doubts.
2-5. Drishtis of the Grahas. O Brahmin, I have earlier stated Drishtis, based on Rasis. The
other kind is between Grahas, which I detail below. 3 rd and 10 th , 5 th and 9 th , 4 th and 8 th and
lastly 7 th . On these places the Drishtis increase gradually in slabs of quarters, i.e Vi, Vi, 3 A and
full. The effects will also be proportionate. All Grahas give a Drishti to the 7 th fully. Sani,
Guru and Mangal have special Drishtis, respectively, on the 3 rd and the 10 th , the 5 th and the 9 th
and the 4 th and the 8 th . The ancient preceptors have explained these, which ordinary. By subtle
mathematical calculations these Drishtis will have to be clearly understood, as under.
6-8. Evaluation of the Drishtis of the Grahas. Deduct the longitude of the Grah (or Bhava),
that receives a Drishti, from that of the Grah, which gives the Drishti. If the sum exceeds six
Rasis, deduct the sum again from 10 Rasis. Convert the latter sum into degrees and divide by
two. The resultant product is Drishti Kona (or aspectual angle). If the difference is in excess
of 5 Rasis, ignore the Rasis and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which is the value of the
Drishti. If the difference is in excess of 4 Rasis, deduct it from 5 Rasis, and the resultant
degees etc. become the Drishti value. If the difference is in excess of 3 Rasis, deduct it from 4
Rasis and (increase 30 by) halve the product to get the Drishti value. If the difference is above
2 Rasis, ignore the Rasis and add 15 to the degrees etc. to get the Drishti value. If it is in
excess of one Rasi, ignore the Rasis and divide the degrees by 2 to get the Drishti value.
9-10. Special consideration for Sani's Drishtis. O Brahmin, if Sani is the Grah, that gives a
Drishti, find out the difference between him and the Grah, that receives the Drishti; if the sum
is above 1 Rasi, multiply the degrees etc. by 2 to get the Drishti value. If the sum is above
nine Rasis, the degrees to elapse be doubled to get the Drishti value. If the sum is above 2
Rasis, the degrees etc. be halved and deducted from 60. If the sum exceeds 8 Rasis, add to the
degrees etc. a figure of 30 to get the Drishti value. In other cases, the sums be processed, as
explained earlier.
II. Special consideration for Mangal's Drishtis. Deduct the longitude of Mangal from that of
the Grah, that receives the Drishti. If the sum is 3 Rasis & c, or 7 Rasis & c, the degrees etc.
be reduced from 60. If it is above 2 Rasis, the degrees etc. be increased by half of it and
superadd 15. If the sum is 6 Rasis, one Rup is the value.
12. Special consideration for Guru's Drishtis. Deduct the longitude of Guru from that of the
Grah, that receives the Drishti from Guru. If the resultant sum is 3 Rasis & c, or 7 Rasis & c,
halve the degrees etc. and increase it by 15. It the sum is 4 Rasis & c, or 8 Rasis & c, the
degrees etc. be subtracted from 60. This will be the Drishti value. The sum, being in
conformity with others than these, be treated, as stated earlier.
I. O Glorious, it is said, that Drishtis (of Grahas) and their strengths are to be known in
deciding the effects. How many kinds are these? Please clarify doubts.
2-5. Drishtis of the Grahas. O Brahmin, I have earlier stated Drishtis, based on Rasis. The

and the 4 th and the 8 th . The ancient preceptors have explained these, which ordinary. By subtle
mathematical calculations these Drishtis will have to be clearly understood, as under.
6-8. Evaluation of the Drishtis of the Grahas. Deduct the longitude of the Grah (or Bhava),
that receives a Drishti, from that of the Grah, which gives the Drishti. If the sum exceeds six
Rasis, deduct the sum again from 10 Rasis. Convert the latter sum into degrees and divide by
two. The resultant product is Drishti Kona (or aspectual angle). If the difference is in excess
of 5 Rasis, ignore the Rasis and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which is the value of the
Drishti. If the difference is in excess of 4 Rasis, deduct it from 5 Rasis, and the resultant
degees etc. become the Drishti value. If the difference is in excess of 3 Rasis, deduct it from 4
Rasis and (increase 30 by) halve the product to get the Drishti value. If the difference is above
2 Rasis, ignore the Rasis and add 15 to the degrees etc. to get the Drishti value. If it is in
excess of one Rasi, ignore the Rasis and divide the degrees by 2 to get the Drishti value.
9-10. Special consideration for Sani's Drishtis. O Brahmin, if Sani is the Grah, that gives a
Drishti, find out the difference between him and the Grah, that receives the Drishti; if the sum
is above 1 Rasi, multiply the degrees etc. by 2 to get the Drishti value. If the sum is above
nine Rasis, the degrees to elapse be doubled to get the Drishti value. If the sum is above 2
Rasis, the degrees etc. be halved and deducted from 60. If the sum exceeds 8 Rasis, add to the
degrees etc. a figure of 30 to get the Drishti value. In other cases, the sums be processed, as
explained earlier.
II. Special consideration for Mangal's Drishtis. Deduct the longitude of Mangal from that of
the Grah, that receives the Drishti. If the sum is 3 Rasis & c, or 7 Rasis & c, the degrees etc.
be reduced from 60. If it is above 2 Rasis, the degrees etc. be increased by half of it and
superadd 15. If the sum is 6 Rasis, one Rup is the value.
12. Special consideration for Guru's Drishtis. Deduct the longitude of Guru from that of the
Grah, that receives the Drishti from Guru. If the resultant sum is 3 Rasis & c, or 7 Rasis & c,
halve the degrees etc. and increase it by 15. It the sum is 4 Rasis & c, or 8 Rasis & c, the
degrees etc. be subtracted from 60. This will be the Drishti value. The sum, being in
conformity with others than these, be treated, as stated earlier.
Ch. 27. Evaluation Of Strengths
Ch. 27. Evaluation Of Strengths
Shad Bal consists of the following: Sthan Bal (positional), Dig Bal (directional), Kaal Bal
(Temporal), inclusive of Ayan Bal (equinoctial), Chesht Bal (motional), Naisargika Bal
(natural), Drik Bal (aspectual). These strengths are computed for the seven Grahas from Surya
to Sani. The nodes are not considered.
Sthan Bal comprises of the following considerations: Uchch Bal (exaltation), Sapt Vargaj Bal
(strength accruing out of positions in Rasi, Hora, Dreshkan, Saptahs, Navahs, Dvadashahs and
Trimshans), OjhayugmaRasians Bal (acquired by placement in odd, or even Rasi and in odd,
or even Navans), Kendradi Bal (due to placement in Kon, or Panaphara, or Apoklima Bhava),
Dreshkan Bal (due to placement in first, second, or third decanate of a Rasi).
Kaal Bal comprises of the following subdivisions: Nathonnata Bal (diurnal and nocturnal),
Paksh Bal (fortnight), Tribhag Bal (due to day/night being made in 3 parts), Varsh, Maas,
Dina and Hora Bal (Varsh - astrological year, Maas - month, Dina - weekday and Hora -
planetary hour), Ayan Bal (equinoctial), Yudhdh Bal (due to partaking in war between
Grahas).
I-IV2. Sthan Bal (up to Sloka 6). Firstly Uchch Bal. Now about the strengths by classes
positional, temporal etc. Deduct from the longitude of the Grah its (deep) debilitation point. If
the sum is less than 6 Rasis, consider it, as it is; if it exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct the same from 12
Rasis. The sum so got be converted into degrees etc. and divided by 3, which is the Grah's
Uchch Bal in Virupas.
2-4. Sapt Vargaj Bal. If a Grah is in its Mooltrikon Rasi, it gets 45 Virupas, in Svasth Rasi 30
Virupas, in Pramudit Rasi 20 Virupas, in Shant Rasi 15 Virupas, in Din Rasi 10 Virupas, in
Duhkhit Rasi 4 Virupas and in Khal Rasi 2 Virupas. Similarly these values occur for the other
6 divisional occupations, viz. Hora, Dreshkan, Saptahs, Navans, Dvadashahs and Trimshans.
When all these are added together the Grah's Sapt Vargaj Bal emerges.
4V4. OjhayugmaRasians Bal. Each of Sukr and Candr in even Rasis and others in odd Rasis
acquire a quarter of Rupa. These are applicable to such Navahsas also.
5. Kendradi Bal. A Grah in a Kon gets full strength, while one in Panaphara Bhava gets half
and the one in Apoklima Bhava gets a quarter, as Kendradi Bal.
6. Dreshkan Bal. Male, female and hermaphrodite Grahas, respectively, get a quarter Rupa
according to placements in the first, second and third decanates.
I-IV2. Dig Bal. Deduct Bandhu Bhava (Nadir) from the longitudes of Surya and Mangal,
Yuvati Bhava from that of Guru and Budh, Karm Bhava from that of Sukr and Candr and
lastly Lagn from that of Sani. If the sum is above 180 degrees, deduct the sum from 360. The
sum arrived in either way be divided by 3, which will be Dig Bal of the Grah.
8-9. Kaal Bal (up to Sloka 17). Firstly Nathonnata Bal. Find out the difference between
midnight and the apparent birth time, which is called Unnata. Deduct Unnata from 30 Ghatis
to obtain Nata. Double the Nata in Ghatis, which will indicate identical Nata Bal for Candr,
Mangal and Sani. Deduct the Nata from 60 to know the Unnata Bal of Surya, Guru and Sukr.
Budh, irrespective of day and night, gets full Nathonnata Bal.
10-11. Paksh Bal. Deduct from Candr's longitude that of Surya. If the sum exceeds 6 Rasis,
deduct the same from 12. The product so obtained be converted into degrees etc. and divided
by 3, which will indicate the Paksh Bal of each of the benefic Grahas. The Paksh Bal of
benefic should be deducted from 60, which will go to each malefic, as Paksh Bal.
12. Tribagh Bal. One Rupa is obtained by Budh in the first 1/3 part of day time, by Surya in
the second 1/3 part of the day and by Sani in the last 1/3 part of the day. Similarly Candr,
Sukr and Mangal get full Bal in the first, second and last 1/3 parts of the night. Guru gets this
Bal at all times.
13. Varsh-Maas-Dina-Hora Bal. 15, 30, 45 and 60 Virupas are in order given to Varsh Lord,
Maas Lord, Dina Lord and Hora Lord. Naisargika Bal has already been explained.
The Varsh Lord is the Lord of the day, on which the astrological year of birth starts. To
calculate this we first need the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation, the
Ahargan. According to late Rev. Ebenezer Burgess, who translated Surya Siddhanta in
English, as on January 1, 1860, the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation are
714,404,108,573. Divide the number of days, past from the day of Creation till the day of
birth, by 60. Reject remainder and multiply the quotient by 3. Increase the post-multiplied
product by 1 and divide by 7. The remainder will indicate the week day, on which the
astrological year, giving birth to the native, opened. Remainder 1 indicates Sunday, 2 Monday
and so on.
Maas Lord. Divide the same Ahargan by 30 and the quotient indicates months, passed from
Creation to birth. The completed months be multiplied by 2 and increased by 1. The latter
sum should be divided by 7 and the remainder indicates, on which day the birth month began.
Continuing with the same case, we divide 65295 by 30. Quotient is 2176. This sum multiplied
by 2 and increased by 1 denotes 4353. Dividing 4353 by 7, we get a remainder of 6, denoting
Friday. That is, the month of birth began on Friday and the Maas Bal goes to Sukr, the Lord
of Friday.
Dina Lord. Though the week day of birth can be known from ephemeris, or perpetual
calendars, we better adopt the method prescribed, which will confirm, if the Ahargan
followed is correct. The number of days, as arrived above, indicating Ahargan, be divided by
7 and the remainder will indicate the week day of birth.
Hora Bal. Hora means planetary hour. Each day from sunrise to sunrise is divided into 24
equal parts of one hour. These Horas are ruled by the 7 Grahas from Surya to Sani. The first
Hora of the day is ruled by the Lord of the week day. The 2 nd one is ruled by the Lord of the
6 th week day, counted from the first ruler. The 3 rd Hora is ruled by the Lord of the 6 th week
day, counted from the 2 nd Hora Lord. Similarly it proceeds in the same manner, till the first
Hora of the next day is taken over by the Lord of that day himself. Whichever Grah rules the
birth Hora, gets the Hora Bal. Horas are to be calculated for mean local time and not standard
time of births.
14. Naisargika Bal. Divide one Rupa by 7 and multiply the resultant product by 1 to 7
separately, which will indicate the Naisargika Bal, due to Sani, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Sukr,
Candr and Surya, respectively.
15-17. Ayan Bal. 45, 33 and 12 are the Khandas for calculating Ayan Bal. Add Ayanahs to
the Grah and find out the Bhuja (distance from the nearest equinox). Add the figure,
corresponding to the Rasi (of the Bhuja) to the Bhuja. The degrees etc. of the Bhuja should be
multiplied by the figure, corresponding to the highest of the left out Khandas and divided by
30. Add the resultant product to the sum, obtained earlier. Convert this to Rasi, degrees,
minutes and seconds. If Candr and Sani are in Tula, or ahead, add to this 3 Rasis and, if in
Mesh to Kanya, reduce from this 3 Rasis. Similarly it is reverse for Surya, Mangal, Sukr and
Guru. For Budh 3 Rasis are always additive. The resultant sum in Rasi, degrees and minutes
be divided by 3 to get the Ayan Bal in Rupas.
Notes. Ayan Bal can be found out on the following simple formula: Ayan Bal = 60*(23°27' +
Kranti)/(46°54') = (23°27'± Kranti)* 1.2793.
The following points have to be remembered in respect of Krantis. When Candr, or Sani have
southern Kranti, or, when Surya, Mangal, Guru, or Sukr have northern Kranti, take plus. In a
contrary situation in respect of these 6 Grahas, take minus. As far as Budh is concerned, it is
always plus. Krantis (or declinations) can be ascertained from a standard modern ephemeris.
Surya' s Ayan Bal is again multiplied by 2 whereas for others the product arrived in Virupas is
considered, as it is.
18. Motional Strength for Surya and Candr. Surya' s Chesht Bal will correspond to his Ayan
Bal. Candr's Paksh Bal will itself be her Chesht Bal.
19. Drik Bal. Reduce one fourth of the Drishti Pinda, if a Grah receives malefic Drishtis and
add a fourth, if it receives a Drishti from a benefic. Super add the entire Drishti of Budh and
Guru to get the net strength of a Grah.
20. War Between Grahas. Should there be a war between the starry Grahas, the difference
between the Shad Balas of the two should be added to the victor's Shad Bal and deducted
from the Shad Bal of the vanquished.
21-23. Motions of Grahas (Mangal to Sani). Eight kinds of motions are attributed to Grahas.
These are Vakr (retrogression), Anuvakr (entering the previous Rasi in retrograde motion),
Vikal (devoid of motion), Mand (somewhat slower motion than usual), Mandatar (slower than
the previous), Sama (somewhat increasing in motion), Char (faster than Sama) and Atichar
(entering next Rasi in accelerated motion). The strengths, allotted due to such 8 motions are
60, 30, 15, 30, 15, 7.5, 45 and 30.
24-25. Motional Strength for Mangal etc. Add together the mean and true longitudes of a
Grah and divide the one by two. Reduce this sum from the Seeghroch (or apogee) of the Grah.
The resultant product will indicate the Chesht Kendra (or Seeghr Kendra) of the Grah from 12
Rasis. The Rasi, degrees and minutes so arrived should be converted into degrees, minutes
etc. and divided by 3, which will denote the motional strength of the Grah. Thus there are six
sources of strength, called Sthan Bal, Dig Bal, Kaal Bal, Drik Bal, Chesht Bal and Naisargika
Bal.
26-29. Bhava Balas. Thus I explained about the strengths of the Grahas. Deduct Yuvati Bhava
from the Bhava, if the Bhava happens to be in Kanya, Mithun, Tula, Kumbh, or the first half
ofDhanu. If Mesh, Vrishabh, Simh, or first half of Makar, or the second half of Dhanu
happen to be the Bhava, deduct Bandhu Bhava from it. Should the Bhava be in Kark, or in
Vrischik, deduct from it Lagn. Deduct Karm Bhava from the Bhava, happening to fall in
Makar second half, or Meen. Convert the product so obtained into degrees etc. and divide by
3 to get Bhava Bal. If the balance in the process of deducting Nadir, Meridian, Lagn, or
Yuvati exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct it again from 12 Rasis, before converting into degrees and
dividing by 3. The product after division should be increased by one fourth, if the Bhava in
question receives a benefic Drishti. If the Bhava receives a malefic Drishti, one fourth should
be reduced. If Gum, or Budh give a Drishti to a Bhava, add that Grah's Drik Bal also. And
then superadd the strength, acquired by the Lord of that Bhava. This will be the net Bhava
Bal.
30-31. Special Rules. The Bhavas, occupied by Guru and Budh will each get an addition of 1
Rupa, while each of the Bhavas, occupied by Sani, Mangal and Surya, suffer 1 Rupa
reduction. 15 Virupas will have to be added to the Bhavas, falling in Seershodaya Rasis, if
birth happens to be in day time, to the Bhavas, falling in Dual Rasis, if birth happens to be in
twilight and to the Bhavas, falling in Prishtodaya Rasis, if birth be in night time.
32-33. Shad Bal Requirements. 390, 360, 300, 420, 390, 330 and 300 Virupas are the Shad
Bal Pindas, needed for Surya etc. to be considered strong. If the strength exceeds the above-
mentioned values, the Grah is deemed to be very strong. If a Grah has the required Shad Bal,
it will prove favourable to the native by virtue of its strength. However, Sani's extreme
strength will give long life as well as miseries.
34-36. Guru, Budh and Surya are strong, if each of their Sthan Bal, Dig Bal, Kaal Bal, Chesht
Bal and Ayan Bal are, respectively, 165, 35, 50, 1 12 and 30 Virupas. The same required for
Candr and Sukr are 133, 50, 30, 100 and 40. For Mangal and Sani these are 96, 30, 40, 67 and 20.
37-38. Bhava Effects. O Brahmin, thus the various sources of strengths be gathered together
and effects declared. Whatever Yogas, or effects have been stated with respect to a Bhava,
will come to pass through the strongest Grah.
39-40. Eligibility of Issue Fruitful Predictions. O Maitreya, the words of one, who has
achieved skill in mathematics, one, who has put in industrious efforts in the branch of
grammar, one, who has knowledge of justice, one, who is intelligent, one, who has knowledge
of geography, space and time, one, who has conquered his senses, one, who is skilfully logical
(in estimation) and one, who is favourable to Jyotish, will doubtless be truthful.
Shad Bal consists of the following: Sthan Bal (positional), Dig Bal (directional), Kaal Bal
(Temporal), inclusive of Ayan Bal (equinoctial), Chesht Bal (motional), Naisargika Bal
(natural), Drik Bal (aspectual). These strengths are computed for the seven Grahas from Surya
to Sani. The nodes are not considered.
Sthan Bal comprises of the following considerations: Uchch Bal (exaltation), Sapt Vargaj Bal
(strength accruing out of positions in Rasi, Hora, Dreshkan, Saptahs, Navahs, Dvadashahs and
Trimshans), OjhayugmaRasians Bal (acquired by placement in odd, or even Rasi and in odd,
or even Navans), Kendradi Bal (due to placement in Kon, or Panaphara, or Apoklima Bhava),
Dreshkan Bal (due to placement in first, second, or third decanate of a Rasi).
Kaal Bal comprises of the following subdivisions: Nathonnata Bal (diurnal and nocturnal),
Paksh Bal (fortnight), Tribhag Bal (due to day/night being made in 3 parts), Varsh, Maas,
Dina and Hora Bal (Varsh - astrological year, Maas - month, Dina - weekday and Hora -
planetary hour), Ayan Bal (equinoctial), Yudhdh Bal (due to partaking in war between
Grahas).
I-IV2. Sthan Bal (up to Sloka 6). Firstly Uchch Bal. Now about the strengths by classes
positional, temporal etc. Deduct from the longitude of the Grah its (deep) debilitation point. If
the sum is less than 6 Rasis, consider it, as it is; if it exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct the same from 12
Rasis. The sum so got be converted into degrees etc. and divided by 3, which is the Grah's
Uchch Bal in Virupas.
2-4. Sapt Vargaj Bal. If a Grah is in its Mooltrikon Rasi, it gets 45 Virupas, in Svasth Rasi 30
Virupas, in Pramudit Rasi 20 Virupas, in Shant Rasi 15 Virupas, in Din Rasi 10 Virupas, in
Duhkhit Rasi 4 Virupas and in Khal Rasi 2 Virupas. Similarly these values occur for the other
6 divisional occupations, viz. Hora, Dreshkan, Saptahs, Navans, Dvadashahs and Trimshans.
When all these are added together the Grah's Sapt Vargaj Bal emerges.
4V4. OjhayugmaRasians Bal. Each of Sukr and Candr in even Rasis and others in odd Rasis
acquire a quarter of Rupa. These are applicable to such Navahsas also.
5. Kendradi Bal. A Grah in a Kon gets full strength, while one in Panaphara Bhava gets half
and the one in Apoklima Bhava gets a quarter, as Kendradi Bal.
6. Dreshkan Bal. Male, female and hermaphrodite Grahas, respectively, get a quarter Rupa
according to placements in the first, second and third decanates.
I-IV2. Dig Bal. Deduct Bandhu Bhava (Nadir) from the longitudes of Surya and Mangal,
Yuvati Bhava from that of Guru and Budh, Karm Bhava from that of Sukr and Candr and
lastly Lagn from that of Sani. If the sum is above 180 degrees, deduct the sum from 360. The
sum arrived in either way be divided by 3, which will be Dig Bal of the Grah.
8-9. Kaal Bal (up to Sloka 17). Firstly Nathonnata Bal. Find out the difference between
midnight and the apparent birth time, which is called Unnata. Deduct Unnata from 30 Ghatis
to obtain Nata. Double the Nata in Ghatis, which will indicate identical Nata Bal for Candr,
Mangal and Sani. Deduct the Nata from 60 to know the Unnata Bal of Surya, Guru and Sukr.
Budh, irrespective of day and night, gets full Nathonnata Bal.
10-11. Paksh Bal. Deduct from Candr's longitude that of Surya. If the sum exceeds 6 Rasis,
deduct the same from 12. The product so obtained be converted into degrees etc. and divided
by 3, which will indicate the Paksh Bal of each of the benefic Grahas. The Paksh Bal of
benefic should be deducted from 60, which will go to each malefic, as Paksh Bal.
12. Tribagh Bal. One Rupa is obtained by Budh in the first 1/3 part of day time, by Surya in
the second 1/3 part of the day and by Sani in the last 1/3 part of the day. Similarly Candr,
Sukr and Mangal get full Bal in the first, second and last 1/3 parts of the night. Guru gets this
Bal at all times.
13. Varsh-Maas-Dina-Hora Bal. 15, 30, 45 and 60 Virupas are in order given to Varsh Lord,
Maas Lord, Dina Lord and Hora Lord. Naisargika Bal has already been explained.
The Varsh Lord is the Lord of the day, on which the astrological year of birth starts. To
calculate this we first need the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation, the
Ahargan. According to late Rev. Ebenezer Burgess, who translated Surya Siddhanta in
English, as on January 1, 1860, the number of days, past from the beginning of Creation are
714,404,108,573. Divide the number of days, past from the day of Creation till the day of
birth, by 60. Reject remainder and multiply the quotient by 3. Increase the post-multiplied
product by 1 and divide by 7. The remainder will indicate the week day, on which the
astrological year, giving birth to the native, opened. Remainder 1 indicates Sunday, 2 Monday
and so on.
Maas Lord. Divide the same Ahargan by 30 and the quotient indicates months, passed from
Creation to birth. The completed months be multiplied by 2 and increased by 1. The latter
sum should be divided by 7 and the remainder indicates, on which day the birth month began.
Continuing with the same case, we divide 65295 by 30. Quotient is 2176. This sum multiplied
by 2 and increased by 1 denotes 4353. Dividing 4353 by 7, we get a remainder of 6, denoting
Friday. That is, the month of birth began on Friday and the Maas Bal goes to Sukr, the Lord
of Friday.
Dina Lord. Though the week day of birth can be known from ephemeris, or perpetual
calendars, we better adopt the method prescribed, which will confirm, if the Ahargan
followed is correct. The number of days, as arrived above, indicating Ahargan, be divided by
7 and the remainder will indicate the week day of birth.
Hora Bal. Hora means planetary hour. Each day from sunrise to sunrise is divided into 24
equal parts of one hour. These Horas are ruled by the 7 Grahas from Surya to Sani. The first
Hora of the day is ruled by the Lord of the week day. The 2 nd one is ruled by the Lord of the
6 th week day, counted from the first ruler. The 3 rd Hora is ruled by the Lord of the 6 th week
day, counted from the 2 nd Hora Lord. Similarly it proceeds in the same manner, till the first
Hora of the next day is taken over by the Lord of that day himself. Whichever Grah rules the
birth Hora, gets the Hora Bal. Horas are to be calculated for mean local time and not standard
time of births.
14. Naisargika Bal. Divide one Rupa by 7 and multiply the resultant product by 1 to 7
separately, which will indicate the Naisargika Bal, due to Sani, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Sukr,
Candr and Surya, respectively.
15-17. Ayan Bal. 45, 33 and 12 are the Khandas for calculating Ayan Bal. Add Ayanahs to
the Grah and find out the Bhuja (distance from the nearest equinox). Add the figure,
corresponding to the Rasi (of the Bhuja) to the Bhuja. The degrees etc. of the Bhuja should be
multiplied by the figure, corresponding to the highest of the left out Khandas and divided by
30. Add the resultant product to the sum, obtained earlier. Convert this to Rasi, degrees,
minutes and seconds. If Candr and Sani are in Tula, or ahead, add to this 3 Rasis and, if in
Mesh to Kanya, reduce from this 3 Rasis. Similarly it is reverse for Surya, Mangal, Sukr and
Guru. For Budh 3 Rasis are always additive. The resultant sum in Rasi, degrees and minutes
be divided by 3 to get the Ayan Bal in Rupas.
Notes. Ayan Bal can be found out on the following simple formula: Ayan Bal = 60*(23°27' +
Kranti)/(46°54') = (23°27'± Kranti)* 1.2793.
The following points have to be remembered in respect of Krantis. When Candr, or Sani have
southern Kranti, or, when Surya, Mangal, Guru, or Sukr have northern Kranti, take plus. In a
contrary situation in respect of these 6 Grahas, take minus. As far as Budh is concerned, it is
always plus. Krantis (or declinations) can be ascertained from a standard modern ephemeris.
Surya' s Ayan Bal is again multiplied by 2 whereas for others the product arrived in Virupas is
considered, as it is.
18. Motional Strength for Surya and Candr. Surya' s Chesht Bal will correspond to his Ayan
Bal. Candr's Paksh Bal will itself be her Chesht Bal.
19. Drik Bal. Reduce one fourth of the Drishti Pinda, if a Grah receives malefic Drishtis and
add a fourth, if it receives a Drishti from a benefic. Super add the entire Drishti of Budh and
Guru to get the net strength of a Grah.
20. War Between Grahas. Should there be a war between the starry Grahas, the difference
between the Shad Balas of the two should be added to the victor's Shad Bal and deducted
from the Shad Bal of the vanquished.
21-23. Motions of Grahas (Mangal to Sani). Eight kinds of motions are attributed to Grahas.
These are Vakr (retrogression), Anuvakr (entering the previous Rasi in retrograde motion),
Vikal (devoid of motion), Mand (somewhat slower motion than usual), Mandatar (slower than
the previous), Sama (somewhat increasing in motion), Char (faster than Sama) and Atichar
(entering next Rasi in accelerated motion). The strengths, allotted due to such 8 motions are
60, 30, 15, 30, 15, 7.5, 45 and 30.
24-25. Motional Strength for Mangal etc. Add together the mean and true longitudes of a
Grah and divide the one by two. Reduce this sum from the Seeghroch (or apogee) of the Grah.
The resultant product will indicate the Chesht Kendra (or Seeghr Kendra) of the Grah from 12
Rasis. The Rasi, degrees and minutes so arrived should be converted into degrees, minutes
etc. and divided by 3, which will denote the motional strength of the Grah. Thus there are six
sources of strength, called Sthan Bal, Dig Bal, Kaal Bal, Drik Bal, Chesht Bal and Naisargika
Bal.
26-29. Bhava Balas. Thus I explained about the strengths of the Grahas. Deduct Yuvati Bhava
from the Bhava, if the Bhava happens to be in Kanya, Mithun, Tula, Kumbh, or the first half
ofDhanu. If Mesh, Vrishabh, Simh, or first half of Makar, or the second half of Dhanu
happen to be the Bhava, deduct Bandhu Bhava from it. Should the Bhava be in Kark, or in
Vrischik, deduct from it Lagn. Deduct Karm Bhava from the Bhava, happening to fall in
Makar second half, or Meen. Convert the product so obtained into degrees etc. and divide by
3 to get Bhava Bal. If the balance in the process of deducting Nadir, Meridian, Lagn, or
Yuvati exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct it again from 12 Rasis, before converting into degrees and
dividing by 3. The product after division should be increased by one fourth, if the Bhava in
question receives a benefic Drishti. If the Bhava receives a malefic Drishti, one fourth should
be reduced. If Gum, or Budh give a Drishti to a Bhava, add that Grah's Drik Bal also. And
then superadd the strength, acquired by the Lord of that Bhava. This will be the net Bhava
Bal.
30-31. Special Rules. The Bhavas, occupied by Guru and Budh will each get an addition of 1
Rupa, while each of the Bhavas, occupied by Sani, Mangal and Surya, suffer 1 Rupa
reduction. 15 Virupas will have to be added to the Bhavas, falling in Seershodaya Rasis, if
birth happens to be in day time, to the Bhavas, falling in Dual Rasis, if birth happens to be in
twilight and to the Bhavas, falling in Prishtodaya Rasis, if birth be in night time.
32-33. Shad Bal Requirements. 390, 360, 300, 420, 390, 330 and 300 Virupas are the Shad
Bal Pindas, needed for Surya etc. to be considered strong. If the strength exceeds the above-
mentioned values, the Grah is deemed to be very strong. If a Grah has the required Shad Bal,
it will prove favourable to the native by virtue of its strength. However, Sani's extreme
strength will give long life as well as miseries.
34-36. Guru, Budh and Surya are strong, if each of their Sthan Bal, Dig Bal, Kaal Bal, Chesht
Bal and Ayan Bal are, respectively, 165, 35, 50, 1 12 and 30 Virupas. The same required for
Candr and Sukr are 133, 50, 30, 100 and 40. For Mangal and Sani these are 96, 30, 40, 67 and 20.
37-38. Bhava Effects. O Brahmin, thus the various sources of strengths be gathered together
and effects declared. Whatever Yogas, or effects have been stated with respect to a Bhava,
will come to pass through the strongest Grah.
39-40. Eligibility of Issue Fruitful Predictions. O Maitreya, the words of one, who has
achieved skill in mathematics, one, who has put in industrious efforts in the branch of
grammar, one, who has knowledge of justice, one, who is intelligent, one, who has knowledge
of geography, space and time, one, who has conquered his senses, one, who is skilfully logical
(in estimation) and one, who is favourable to Jyotish, will doubtless be truthful.
Ch. 28. Isht and Kasht Balas
Ch. 28. Isht and Kasht Balas
1. Now I narrate the benefic and malefic tendencies of the Grahas, based on which the Dasha
effects can be decided.
2. Exaltation Rays. Deduct the Grah's debilitation point from its actual position. If the sum
exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct from 12 Rasis. The said sum should then be increased by 1 Rasi. The
degrees etc. be multiplied by 2, which, when considered along with Rasis, will indicate the
Uchch Rasmi of the Grah.
3-4. Chesht Rasmi. Chesht Rasmis are to be calculated from Chesht Kendr similar to Uchch
Rasmi computations. The Chesht Kendras of Grahas from Mangal to Sani have already been
explained. Add 3 Rasis to Sayan Surya (i.e. with Ayanahs), which will be the Chesht Kendr
for Surya. The sidereal longitude of Surya should be deducted from Candr to get Candr' s
Chesht Kendr. If the Chesht Kendr (for any Grah) is in excess of 6 Rasis, deduct it from 12
Rasis. Add 1 Rasi and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which will indicate the Chesht Rasmi of
the Grah.
5. Benefic and Malefic Rays. Add the Uchch Rasmis and Chesht Rasmis together and divide
by two. The result will be auspicious rays (Subh Rasmis). Deduct from 8 the Subh Rasmis to
obtain inauspicious rays (Asubh Rasmis).
6. Isht and Kasht Tendencies. Reduce 1 from each of Chesht Rasmi and Uchch Rasmi. Then
multiply the products by 10 and add together. Half of the sum will represent the Isht Phala
(benefic tendency) of the Grah. Reduce Isht Phala from 60 to obtain the Grah's Kasht Phala
(malefic tendency).
7-9. Isht and Kasht and Sapt Varg Phal. 60, 45, 30, 22, 15, 8, 4, 2 and are the Subhankas
(Subha Griha Pankthis, benefic points), due to a Grah's placement, respectively, in exaltation,
Mooltrikon, own, great friend's, friend's, neutral, enemy's, great enemy's and debilitation
Rasi. If Subhanka is deducted from 60, Asubhanka (Asubh Pankthi, inauspicious points) will
emerge. O Brahmin, in other Vargas these are halved.
10. A Grah is considered auspicious in the first five of the said places. In the sixth place it is
neutral, i.e. neither good nor bad. And in the other three places it is inauspicious.
1 1-12. Nature of Effects, due to Dig Bal etc. The directional strength of a Grah is itself
representative of the effects, due to the direction; and Kaal Bal itself is indicative of effects,
due to the day. Whatever quantum of Dig Bal etc. are obtained by a Grah, will be the extent of
auspicious effects, acquirable on account of that strength. Deducting those figures from 60,
the extent of inauspiciousness is known. If auspiciousness is more in the case of a Grah's
strength, the Dasha and Bhavas, related to that Grah will be auspicious. These are converse, if
inauspiciousness is predominant.
13-14. Sapt Varg Phal and Isht and Kasht (Continued). The various strengths (i.e. the other 6
Vargas) be multiplied by the respective Grah's Shad Bal Pinda, which will indicate the
auspiciousness of the Varg concerned. Auspicious, or inauspicious aspect will be by
multiplying the Subh, or Asubh Pankthi. Similarly auspicious, or inauspicious effects will be
known by multiplying the auspicious, or inauspicious strength by the respective Pankthi.
1 5-20. Effects of a Bhava. The strength of a Bhava and its Lord have already been explained.
The actual effects will be a combination of Bhava strength and its Lord's strength. If there is a
benefic in the Bhava add the same to the auspicious effects and deduct from inauspicious
effects, which will denote the inauspicious effects. If a malefic is in the Bhava, reverse the
process, i.e. add inauspicious effects and deduct auspicious effects. Similarly Drishtis and
Balas. If a Grah is exalted, or with such a dignity, add auspicious effects and reduce
inauspicious effects. For debilitation etc. it is converse. In Ashtak Varg add Bindus
(auspicious points) and deduct Karanas (inauspicious points). If a Bhava extends to two Rasis,
the rectification will be done, as per both the Lords. In that case, whichever Rasi has more
Bindus, that Rasi will yield more favourable results, concerning that Bhava. If both the Rasis
have more auspicious Bindus, take the average. Thus the auspicious and inauspicious effects
of a Bhava be understood.
1. Now I narrate the benefic and malefic tendencies of the Grahas, based on which the Dasha
effects can be decided.
2. Exaltation Rays. Deduct the Grah's debilitation point from its actual position. If the sum
exceeds 6 Rasis, deduct from 12 Rasis. The said sum should then be increased by 1 Rasi. The
degrees etc. be multiplied by 2, which, when considered along with Rasis, will indicate the
Uchch Rasmi of the Grah.
3-4. Chesht Rasmi. Chesht Rasmis are to be calculated from Chesht Kendr similar to Uchch
Rasmi computations. The Chesht Kendras of Grahas from Mangal to Sani have already been
explained. Add 3 Rasis to Sayan Surya (i.e. with Ayanahs), which will be the Chesht Kendr
for Surya. The sidereal longitude of Surya should be deducted from Candr to get Candr' s
Chesht Kendr. If the Chesht Kendr (for any Grah) is in excess of 6 Rasis, deduct it from 12
Rasis. Add 1 Rasi and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which will indicate the Chesht Rasmi of
the Grah.
5. Benefic and Malefic Rays. Add the Uchch Rasmis and Chesht Rasmis together and divide
by two. The result will be auspicious rays (Subh Rasmis). Deduct from 8 the Subh Rasmis to
obtain inauspicious rays (Asubh Rasmis).
6. Isht and Kasht Tendencies. Reduce 1 from each of Chesht Rasmi and Uchch Rasmi. Then
multiply the products by 10 and add together. Half of the sum will represent the Isht Phala
(benefic tendency) of the Grah. Reduce Isht Phala from 60 to obtain the Grah's Kasht Phala
(malefic tendency).
7-9. Isht and Kasht and Sapt Varg Phal. 60, 45, 30, 22, 15, 8, 4, 2 and are the Subhankas
(Subha Griha Pankthis, benefic points), due to a Grah's placement, respectively, in exaltation,
Mooltrikon, own, great friend's, friend's, neutral, enemy's, great enemy's and debilitation
Rasi. If Subhanka is deducted from 60, Asubhanka (Asubh Pankthi, inauspicious points) will
emerge. O Brahmin, in other Vargas these are halved.
10. A Grah is considered auspicious in the first five of the said places. In the sixth place it is
neutral, i.e. neither good nor bad. And in the other three places it is inauspicious.
1 1-12. Nature of Effects, due to Dig Bal etc. The directional strength of a Grah is itself
representative of the effects, due to the direction; and Kaal Bal itself is indicative of effects,
due to the day. Whatever quantum of Dig Bal etc. are obtained by a Grah, will be the extent of
auspicious effects, acquirable on account of that strength. Deducting those figures from 60,
the extent of inauspiciousness is known. If auspiciousness is more in the case of a Grah's
strength, the Dasha and Bhavas, related to that Grah will be auspicious. These are converse, if
inauspiciousness is predominant.
13-14. Sapt Varg Phal and Isht and Kasht (Continued). The various strengths (i.e. the other 6
Vargas) be multiplied by the respective Grah's Shad Bal Pinda, which will indicate the
auspiciousness of the Varg concerned. Auspicious, or inauspicious aspect will be by
multiplying the Subh, or Asubh Pankthi. Similarly auspicious, or inauspicious effects will be
known by multiplying the auspicious, or inauspicious strength by the respective Pankthi.
1 5-20. Effects of a Bhava. The strength of a Bhava and its Lord have already been explained.
The actual effects will be a combination of Bhava strength and its Lord's strength. If there is a
benefic in the Bhava add the same to the auspicious effects and deduct from inauspicious
effects, which will denote the inauspicious effects. If a malefic is in the Bhava, reverse the
process, i.e. add inauspicious effects and deduct auspicious effects. Similarly Drishtis and
Balas. If a Grah is exalted, or with such a dignity, add auspicious effects and reduce
inauspicious effects. For debilitation etc. it is converse. In Ashtak Varg add Bindus
(auspicious points) and deduct Karanas (inauspicious points). If a Bhava extends to two Rasis,
the rectification will be done, as per both the Lords. In that case, whichever Rasi has more
Bindus, that Rasi will yield more favourable results, concerning that Bhava. If both the Rasis
have more auspicious Bindus, take the average. Thus the auspicious and inauspicious effects
of a Bhava be understood.
Ch. 29. Bhava Padas
Ch. 29. Bhava Padas
1-3. Method of Bhava Calculation. O Brahmin, I shall now tell you about the Padas (Arudhas)
for Bhavas and Grahas as well, as laid down by the earlier Maharishis. The Pad of Lagn will
correspond to the Rasi, arrived at by counting so many Rasis from Lagn's Lord, as he is away
from Tanu Bhava. Similarly Padas for other Bhavas be known through their Lords. The word
"Pad" exclusively denotes the Pad for Lagn.
Names of the 12 Arudhas are Lagn Pad - Arudh of Tanu Bhava, Dhan of Dhan, Vikram
(Bhratru) of Sahaj, Matru (Sukh) of Bandhu, Mantra (Putr) of Putr, Rog (Satin) of Ari, Dar
(Kalatr) of Yuvati, Maran of Randhr, Pitru of Dharm Bhava, Karm of Karm, Labh of Labh,
Vyaya of Vyaya.
4-5. Special Exceptions. The same Bhava, or the 7 th from it does not become its Pad. When
the Pad falls in the same Bhava, the 10 th therefrom be treated, as its Pad. Similarly, when the
7 th becomes the Pad of a Bhava, the 4 th from the original Bhava in question be treated, as its
Pad. If the ruler of a Bhava be in the 4 th from the Bhava, then the very Bhava occupied be
noted, as the Pad.
6-7. Padas for Grahas. Note the position of a Grah and see how many Rasis away is its own
Rasi with reference to its position. Count so many Rasis from the said own Rasi and the
resultant Rasi will become the Arudh of the Grah. If a Grah owns two Rasis, or, if a Rasi is
owned by two Grahas; consider the stronger and declare effects accordingly.
8-11. Pad and Finance (up to Sloka 1 5). O Brahmin, I now tell you of some effects of Grahas,
based on Pad. If the 1 1 th from Lagn Pad is occupied, or receives a Drishti from a Grah the
native will be happy and rich; wealth will come through various means, if a benefic is related,
as above. A malefic will confer wealth through questionable means. If there be both a benefic
and a malefic, it will be through both means. If the Grah in question be in exaltation, or in
own Rasi etc., there will be plenty of gains and plenty of happiness.
12. O excellent of the Brahmins, if the 12 th from Lagn Pad does not receive a Drishti, as the
1 1 th from Lagn Pad receives a Drishti from a Grah, then the gains will be uninterrupted.
13-15. O Brahmin, the quantum of gains will correspond to the number of Grahas in, or
giving a Drishti to the 1 1 th from Lagn Pad. If there is Argala for the said 1 1 th , there will be
more gains, while a benefic Argala will bring still more gains. If the said benefic, causing
Argala is in his exaltation Rasi, the gains will be still higher. If the said 1 1 th receives a Drishti
from a benefic from Lagn, the 9 th etc., gains will increase in the ascending order. In all these
cases, the 12 th from Pad should simultaneously be free from malefic association. A benefic,
placed in Lagn, giving a Drishti to the 1 1 th from Arudh Lagn will be still beneficial. If the
Drishti is from the 9 X from Lagn, it will confer much more gains.
16-17. Pad and Financial Losses (up to Sloka 21). If the 12 th from Lagn Pad receives a Drishti
from, or is yuti with both benefics and malefics, there will be abundant earnings, but plenty of
expenses. The benefic will cause through fair means, malefic through unfair means and mixed
Grahas through both fair and unfair means.
18. If the 12 th from Lagn Pad is conjunct Surya, Sukr and Rahu, there will be loss of wealth
through the king. Candr, giving a Drishti to (the said trio in the said Bhava), will specifically
cause more such losses.
19. If Budh is in the 12 th from Lagn Pad and is yuti with, or receives a Drishti from a benefic,
similarly there will be expenses through paternal relatives. A malefic so related to the said
Budh will cause loss of wealth through disputes.
20. O Brahmin, if Guru is in the 12* from Lagn Pad, receiving a Drishti from others, the
expenses will be through taxes and on the person himself.
21. O Brahmin, if Sani is in the 12 th from Lagn Pad along with Mangal and receives a Drishti
from others, the expenses will be through one's co-born.
22. Gainful Sources. Whatever sources of expenses are indicated above with reference to the
12 th from Lagn Pad, gains through similar sources will occur, if Labh Bhava so features with
reference to Lagn Pad.
23. The 7 th Bhava from Pad (up to Sloka 27). If Rahu, or Ketu is placed in the 7 th from Lagn
Pad, the native will be troubled by disorders of the stomach, or by fire.
24. Should there be Ketu in the 7 th from Lagn Pad, receiving a Drishti from, or being yuti with
another malefic, the native will be adventurous, will have (prematurely) grey hair and a big
male organ.
25. Should one, two, or all three of Guru, Sukr and Candr be in the 7 th from Lagn Pad, the
native will be very wealthy.
26. Whether a benefic, or a malefic, if be exalted in the 7 th from Lagn Pad, the native will be
affluent and be famous.
27. O Brahmin, these Yogas, as narrated by me with reference to the 7 th from Lagn Pad,
should also be considered from the 2 nd of Lagn Pad.
28. Anyone of Budh, Guru and Sukr being exalted in the 2 nd from Lagn Pad and being with
strength will make the subject rich.
29. The Yogas so far stated by me with reference to Lagn Pad be similarly evaluated from
Karakahs as well.
30-37. General. If Budh is in the 2 n from Arudh Lagn, the native will Lord over the whole
country. Sukr in the 2 nd from Lagn Pad will make one a poet, or a speaker. If the Dar Pad falls
in an angle, or in a trine, counted from Lagn Pad, or, if Lagn Pad and Dar Pad both have
strong Grahas, the native will be rich and be famous in his country. If the Dar Pad falls in the
6 th / 8 th /12 th from Lagn Pad, then the native will be poor. If Lagn Pad and the 7 th therefrom, or
an angle, a trine, an Upachaya therefrom is occupied by a strong Grah, there will be happiness
between the husband and wife. If Lagn Pad and Dar Pad are mutually in Kendras, or Konas,
there will be amity between the couple. If these be in mutually 6 th /8 th /12 th , doubtlessly mutual
enmity will crop up. O Brahmin, similarly mutual relationship, or gain, or loss through son
etc. be known, based on Lagn Pad and the relative Bhava Pad. If Lagn Pad and Dar Pad are
mutually angular, or 3 rd and 1 1 th , or in Konas, the native will be a king, ruling the earth.
Similar deductions be made with reference to mutual positions of Lagn Pad and Dhan Pad.
1-3. Method of Bhava Calculation. O Brahmin, I shall now tell you about the Padas (Arudhas)
for Bhavas and Grahas as well, as laid down by the earlier Maharishis. The Pad of Lagn will
correspond to the Rasi, arrived at by counting so many Rasis from Lagn's Lord, as he is away
from Tanu Bhava. Similarly Padas for other Bhavas be known through their Lords. The word
"Pad" exclusively denotes the Pad for Lagn.
Names of the 12 Arudhas are Lagn Pad - Arudh of Tanu Bhava, Dhan of Dhan, Vikram
(Bhratru) of Sahaj, Matru (Sukh) of Bandhu, Mantra (Putr) of Putr, Rog (Satin) of Ari, Dar
(Kalatr) of Yuvati, Maran of Randhr, Pitru of Dharm Bhava, Karm of Karm, Labh of Labh,
Vyaya of Vyaya.
4-5. Special Exceptions. The same Bhava, or the 7 th from it does not become its Pad. When
the Pad falls in the same Bhava, the 10 th therefrom be treated, as its Pad. Similarly, when the

Pad. If the ruler of a Bhava be in the 4 th from the Bhava, then the very Bhava occupied be
noted, as the Pad.
6-7. Padas for Grahas. Note the position of a Grah and see how many Rasis away is its own
Rasi with reference to its position. Count so many Rasis from the said own Rasi and the
resultant Rasi will become the Arudh of the Grah. If a Grah owns two Rasis, or, if a Rasi is
