Hindi transhfion by GanesaDatta Pathak(Thakur prasad edition) Afterrcrutinizing critically the .four manuscripts,I .have for ieasona of more credibility chosen the Sanskritversion renderedby SitararmJha. Thc Chaukambhaversion is almost the sameas that of Khelari Lal's. Othcr versionsthat I havecome across are : l. Tamil translation by C. G. Rajan-for only 36 cbapters, without SanskritI'erses. 2. English translationby N. N..K. Rao for only 25 chapters, witbout Sanskritslokas. Thus, I have felt a neid to make the original version avallablein Englishto the fullest possibleextent. Our version has97 cbapterscontaining English translationand exhaustive alnotations and exanrples. To handlethe publicationeasily, we havedivided the work in two volumes.The presentvolume-first volume-contains45 cbapterswhile the remaining52 chaptershave beenput in the secondvolume. Chapter I and chapter give 2 some. preliminary extra- astrological information. From chapter 3, tho astiological information begins. , In tbis chapter, phnetary descriptions, benefics aod malefics, planetary deities, complexions, s"*, primordial compounds,seasons, relationships, dignities etc. uri given. Methodsof calcuratingthe'5 upagrahas rike Dhooma and Muburta velas like Gulika are given. Theseare totally ten and have thcir own say on a nativity, as the other nine Lain Grabas have. so to say, these upagrahasand Muhurta vela5 can alter in suitebh proportions the effectsduc to Nava crauai l2 In tho matter of calculation of Gullka, a different concept comes to light from this oldestwork. The latcr authorshave given an altogether variable in knowing Gulika's position whereas Perasara advised that it should be cast for the beginnin! of Saturn's Muhurta. Whoreas somesuggest that it should be for the endingMuhurta of Saturn. In chapter4, each Rasi is describedfrom variousangles. Slokas 25-30 are the climax of this chapter. An unerring method to find out the Nisheka Lagna (or the moment of intercoursecausing conception) from the time ofl birth is outlined. Though the prooess of calculation is as simple as a school student's mathematical quiz, it hasgreat truth in it which even modern science could not discover. To provo the truth of the statementin the sago'sinstruction, a practicai examplehas been given by me. An assumed exanrple cannot better solve the probfem. A practical case where the time of coitus is astrologi- call;r chosenis taken in hand; time of birth has alsobeen got accuratelynotod. From the tinroof birth, the time of Nisheka (or of coitus)is traced which is not in variation, evento the slightest extont,with the originallynoted Nisheka time. Again from the time of Nisheka,the birth time is tracedin a forward manner using only traditional rules of astrology. This exercise provesthree important points, viz. l. The point of M.C. is to bc found out in the mtal horos- cope aod housesintersected accordingly. This is popularly called Sripati Paddhati. Originally Parasaraqdvocated this system. 2. Gulika's position should be found out for the bcginningof Saturn'gMuhurta only. 3. Lahiri's Ayanamsais the first best. The reader will find that we have used Moon's exsct longitude in the abovc prqcess. Simple angular distanceby any Ayanamsawill not elter the solution, but a slight change in Moon's . poeition will take us fer away from the truth. With lahiri's .Ayanamsa,we can safely work out even Nadiamsas,which ohangefast, l3 The method givenby me in working out the future birth time from the time of coition can very well help the astrologers to foretell the exact momentof birth from the time of query. Reseachesreveal that time of query hasa perfectalignment with the time of Nisheka. Chapter5 toucht-isvarious special lagnas, tike Ghatika Lagna, Hora Lagna and BhavaLagna. The importanceof these ascendansscannot be . underestimated. A final Bhava chart can emergeafter merging the different bhava charts causedby these various special ascendants. This final bhava chart can only revealthe extent of planetaryeffects when consideredhousew.se whereasthe bhava chart exclusivelyprepared on natal ascendant alone can sometimes mislead. This is what the sageemphasises ln sloka 9. Cqme to chapter6. The zodiacis dividedin to sixteen Vargasor divisions. Theseare called ShodasaVargas. How to find out such Vargasand thcir use are fully explained. These are from Rasi down to Shashtiamsa. In the classification,the vargasare made in four groups' i.e. 6 vargas,T Vargas,10 Vargas and 16 Vargas and special technical names havebeon given for the total number of desirablevargas a planet attainedfor easy identification. For example if a planet is said to be in Golo' kamsa,it indicatesthat out of 16 Vargas,it is in l5 good V:rrgas. Thesetechnical names appear in the gradationof Raja Yogas. Each Varga findsa certain specificuse in preferencoto a planet's Rasi position. For example,without consideringthe Dvadasamsachart no tangibleresuits due to the native'sparents can be known. In decidingone's career, the Dasamsapositions of the planetsare of supremeimportance. Theseare highlighted in chapter7. In this very chapter the sage enunciateswhat is called Vimsopaka strengthof a planet. He assignsa maximum . of 20 pointstaking againdifferently the four Vargaclassifications, . viz. Shadvarga, SaptaVarga, Dasa Varga and ShodasaVarga. The considerationhere is whether a planet is placedin own sign, , friendly sign, encmy'ssign and the like in the concerncdVarga scheme. Ihen an eveluatonis done to get Vimsopakastrength. This strength enablesus decidethe extent of auspiciouseffects a planetwill be capableof revealingin'a dasa. l4 Chapter8 dealswith what is calledJaimini aspectson Rasi basis. Maharshi Jaimini was the sage who expanded these Parasari principles very extonsively in Sutra form for easy nemorization and successfulapplicability. The original concept is howeverfrom the pen of Parasara. Childhoodevils are discussedin chapter9 whiie chapter10 prescribesplanetary combinations to combat zuch possibleevils. Basic information about the 12 housescould be f Significanceof planetsis treatedin chapter32. Karakamsa is the Navamsa Rasi occupiedby Atma Karaka. Plenetsforming a certainrelationship with Karakamsa and their effects are narrated in chapter33 extending to 99 slokas. Chapter 34 is againone of the most instructive. Planets .assumea certaintendency by virtue of owninga certainhouse. The sageelaborately touchessuch roles for various planetsfor all the 12 ascendants. He decideson such principlesthe Yoga Karakas,Voga Bhanga,Karakas and Marakas for eachascendant' This will enable us undentand whelher planet will give bene' ficial resuttsor adverseeffects. Death dealing planetsor Mrakas us to guessthe period of one'sdeath, allow' .d,sthe name implies, chapter35 lists NabhasaYogas which are availableln most stlndard texts. Many new Raja Yogas could be found in chapter 36, like Khadga, Mridanga, Chamara, Kahala etc. Chapters!7 and38 deal with Lunar and Solar yogaswhich are popularly known. Raja yogas in chapter 39' Yogas for royai associationin chapter40, and financial combinationsin chapter 41 desorvelpecial nention, containing a vapiety of authoritativeinformatidn Maraka or deathdealing planets have a say on the finances of the native apart from causing his end' Theseare tersely entightenedin the 42nd chaPter. The chapter on longevity,bearing No' 43, is amongthe rnost important onss. Pindaytr, Naisargayu,Amsayu and the like, and computations besed on ascendant/planetarypairs linking with movable, fixcd and commonsigns containinstruc- tive information. If, thp notes,I havetaken Pindayu calculations and worked out a fullfledged example touching all aspectsof co$putation. I haveadopted a scientificmethod for deductions for planetarycontributions arising by placement in bhaias 12 to 7. I havb simply not considered bhava positions in these deductionsbut degree-wisepositions of the various planeti. I have given onecommon formula covering the six bhavasand the readercan work out the exact lossof longevity. This can be usefully extened to any loss of years as far as 16 bhavas12 to 7 is concernedin othcr systemlas well. Other tongevitycalculations have been suitablyannotated by me. The readerwill also do well to studychapter 44 concerning Marakas beforehe takesa decisionon longevity. Rahu/Ketu havealso been assigned Marakatwa roles. The concludingchapter of Vol I is the 45th dealingwith a number of kinds of Avasthasof the planets' Out of these,tbe 12 Avasthas,known as SayanadiAvasthas are of supremeimpor- tance. If one tries to interpret theseAvasthas in proper spirit, he will be ableto detect the diseasesthe nativewill suffer. I have supported niy views with the help of information from Adbhuta Sug"ru of Ballala Senaand Hora Ratna of Balabhadra. For example,if Mars is in Agamanavastha,one will suffer fronr deepear pains, . In the normal parlance,we consideronly Jupiter in ine context of ear defects. Diseasesof hand and foot are assignedto venus in Agamanavastha. If one conductsa scien' tific researchin the matter of diseaseswith the help of planetary Avasthas,viz. Sayanadi Avasthas,one is bound to reachmany brilliant clues. The presentwork offersa vact scopefor suc@ssin predic' tive astrology. One can build up his own applied astrology insteadof theoreticalastrology if he works on the linessuggested by MaharshiParasara. A word of cautionis nccessaryfor the benefitofthe reader, In order to understandthe hidden aspectsof the variousrules given herein, what is required is a thorough understandingof theseprinciples. Skipping over fast to an ensuingchapter may 'present' not convey the real ideaof a chapter. To make the reader's Job easier,I have explained every difficult aspect as clearly as I understandbased on my own experienceand study of other authoritative texts' In the end, I would like to mention that my attempt to translatethis greatwork andannotate may not havebeen wholly successful. I surely would have left some shortcomingsunno- ticed and unrectified. From the readers,I can onlT expectthe afrectionof forgiving me for any innocent lapses. New Dplhi R.

According to Kalyana Varma's Serrvali (ch.8, Verses 4647), the natal Moon will be either in the ?th or in the lOth from her Adhana poaition. In the Adhana cbart before us, the Moon is in Aquarius and hencc the natal Moon should be Leo or in Scorpio.

If birth occursin a night sign, then the ascending sigu at Adhana should have been a day sign. (tn the Adhana chart given, the ascendantis Capricorn-a nocturnal sign and hencebirth in Libra-a diurnal sign, is justified') Strge 5 : Nocturnal sign can ascendin day time as well.

Chapter O Ut The curious reader may note one thing. There are maoy rules to note the birth month, natal Moon, natal ascendantetc. with the hclp of Adhana (or prasna). And the correct ones bringing the variouspossibilities to a coincidentalmanner should be corectly judged without ruehing to conclusions sinply theoretically. Ihus the reader will be convincedof the fact that Adhana time noted is correct as we got back to the birth details from Adhana and vlceyersc ac-curatelywithout any ambiguity what- 80ever. From the saidtwo processesbased on accuratelymaintained recordsfor purposes of scientific research,I, rather we, firmly can concludethe followiog without a shadowof doubt : l. Gulika's longitudewill corrcspond to the beginningof Saturn'sMuhurta only, as suggestedby the sage, irrespectiw of any other authority stating that it should be for the end of Muhurta ruled by Saturn. In fact, I have not come acrossany cage'swork stating contrarily to what Parasara stated in this regard. Suppose we have calculated Gulika for the given birth chatt for the end of Saturn's muhurta, the longitude of Gulika would bave advancedby 24 degrees. That would put the Adhana still 24 days behind the noted date. Pleasenote that we have exactly reached the Adh4na date a$ per the record maintained without any variation. This proves that Gulika shouldbe at the beginningof Saturn'sMuhurta. 2. AccurateAyanamsa is only that of Lahiri and that accur- ate it is as to the seoond of arc. This contention is proved by the fact that we have made use of the Moon's longitude. Other 4 loogitudesused by us in the process of getting back to Adbana are simply angular distances which will not be affected by any Ayansmsa. But the Moon's longitude will vary plus or minus accordingto the Ayanarhsa,and Adhana time will be minus or plus accordingto the variation. Whereaswith lahiri's position of the Moon, we did not experienccany anamolyin the Adhana computation. Similarly in progressing towards the birth date from the Adbana date, Moon's longitude playeda significant role. If for examplewith anotherAyanamsa, the Moon goesto Piscesin the Adhana,her natal position, will yet be in Leo but inconsistentwith Adhana position. Hence Lahiri Ayanamsa has all the perfection required for calculationof eventhe Nadiamsas. qq flq{iqqftTTsrttr:n{r I Chrptcr 5 Special Ascendants wnt srqqqdq ilflt faqqiilq t r lqq lqrqll?ll l.

GHATT LAGNA (GHATIKA LAGNA)..Now lisren to the method of working out Ghatika Lagna. This Lagna ctranges along with every Ghatika (24 minutes) from the Sunrise. Note the birth time in Ghati and vighatis. Considerthe number ot' ghatispast as number of Rasisor Ghatika Lagnas.The Vighatis be divided by 2 to arrive at degreesand minutes of arc past in the said Ghatika l-agna. The product so arrived in Rasis, . degreesand minutes be added to the Sun,s longitude as at Sunrise to get the exact location of Ghatika Iagna. So say . sageslike Narada. Notes : Let us find out the Ghatika lagna in the above examplecase, Birth time is 12 ghatiswhich gives 12 Rasis. Vighatisleft are 30 which are to be divided by 2 and treated as degrees. 30 divided by 2 yields 15, i.e. 15". Thus, we note 12 signs 64 Btihat Parasara Hora Sastra 15 degreesto be away from the Sun (as at rise of the day).

With the . above interpretationof the nam$ of the Shasht- Clrapter 6 87 iamsas,we will be wellguidedin the matter of predictions. For example,if a beneficplanet i: in the 3rd houseidentical with a benefic'sRasi in 'Yaksha'shashtiamsa, the nativewill have high 'Kubera' musicalachievements. If Jupiteror the 2nd lord be in Shashtiamsa,one will be very affluent. If a planetin the 8th is 'Payodhi' in shashtiamsa,fear from water may be expected. If 'Bhrashta' the lOth lord occupies shashtiamsa,the nativewill be in profession. In this manner, many incidcntscan be wretched 'visible' clearly cstiniated rvhich may not be to ordinaryeye from thc'horoscoPe.

The groupsas aboveare as per slokas17.20 of ch,7 infra. The Vargasto be considered(as good) are : l. Exaltationdivisions. ' 2. Moolatrikona divisions. 3. Own divisions. 4. The divisionsof the ownersof the four anglescounted from the Arudha Padaor PadaLagna. The first threeare clear. The fourth one needsa clarifica- tion. f n stoka 52 above,the word ,,€{l{alq" (Sx'anullnrh) has beenusccl which meansfrom the Arudha hada,.ir pada Lagna. Hencethe lust quarterof sloka52 hints at the "tJrvisionsof the ,.Swamsa" lord.sot'angles from the Arudha Pada"..(Similarly or Frivr means the Navamsaoccupied by Atma Karaka i.e. Kara- kamsaascendant, vide ch. 33, infra.) The sage suggeststhat the signs ownedby the lords of Arudha f-agnaand of its anglesare consideredgood for Varga Division. This will bring many signs--sometimesas many as g- in the purview of this rule. [t hasbeen felt necessaryto bring this liberalapproach contained in the sloka to the attentionof the reader. In my opinion, the truer strengthof a planetlies in its Moolalrikona, exaltationand own signpositions. For the sake of brevity, the good Vargasin number in the context of Shadvarga through Shodasa Vafga are given special designationsas detailedbelow : If Shadvargascheme is consideredtwo or more suchgood Vargasare known thus : 2. Kimsuka 3. Vyanjana4. Chamara 5. Chatra 6. Kundala.

The aulhor of SarvartbaChintamani designates 8, 9 and l0 respectivelyas Amara, Iravata and Vaiseshikamsas.In fact, thesethree are popularly known with these namesviz. Amara etc.rather than with the onesgiven by Maharshi. When ShodasaVarga scl.rcmeis wholly considered,the numberof gooddivisions arc knownas : 2. Bhedaka 3. Kusuma 4. Nagapushpa 5, Kanduka 6.

It maybe notedthat mostof eventhe hoaryauthors hlve not gonebeyond Dasa Varga scheme. The sagehas fully explai- ned all the I6 Vargasinvolved so rhat a planet'sactual disposit- ion is properlyknown, As far as Hora or half of a sign is concerned"good Vargas" shouldbe flexiblyused as exceptthe Sunand Moon, nonehas rulership of Hora. Jupiteris in exaltationVarga if in Moon's Hora. Thcn, for Jupiterin Sun'sHora, and for other four in any Hora, how rJowc classifythe Varga?ln my opinion, we haveto follow the hint givenin slokal3 of the nextchaptcr that Jupiter, Sun and Mars giveeffects if in Sun'sHora (as lar as Hora is concerned)and the restof the planetsexcept Mercury in Moon's llora. Mercury is good in both. the Horas. So to say,these are good Horas for the concernedptanets. Ii iollows that Jupiter and Mercury are good in any Hora for Varga classification.(There are further hints about Hora, vide ch.7, sloka l3 onwards.) Nextly,a bricf clarilicationis rcquireddbciut thi: Sun add Moon not bavingorvn Trimsamsds. The Surr can obcupyAries in Trimsamsasand the Moon canbe ih Taurus lii Venusian Trimsamsa. They cannotbe itr Leo or Cancer itr Trimsamsa charts. Henceonly exaltationwill apply to them in Trimsamsa. ' Now, coming back to the Varganames, qe will take up some for clarifications. The word "Suryakantamsa"denotes Chapter 1 gt that the planet or the ascendant,as the case may be, has obta_ t-Zgood [ea.. Vargas in the ShodasaVarga or t6 divisions.

VIMSOPAKA STRENGTH.' The Shadvargas(six divisions) consistof Rasi, Hora, decanate,Navamsa, Dvadasa- msaand Trimsamsa. The full strength,for eachof the divisions respectivelyare 6,2, 4,5,2 and l.

Rulc of thrce processbe applied to the ptanet in bctwect these positions. Notes : A planet away from the Sun is immune to tossof rays, and can expr€ss itself fully. This need not be literally misinterpreted that the one not beiog in the 7th from the Sun will be ineffective. For example, we have Ubhayachari and other yogasin which case,a planet other than the Moon is relatedto the Sun by closepositions. This doesnot mean that thescyogas will not fructify. If a planet is eclipsedin the Sun, it provesimpotcnt. Thie appliesto Venus and Saturnas well, againstthe common belid that these two do not lose rays cven if combust and hence are free from Astangata dosha.

SHORT-LIFE COMBINATIONS (upto sloka 23) : Should tho Moon be in the 6th,-8th, or the l2th from the ascendantand be in aspectto a malefic, the child will die soon. If in the ptocess there be g benefic'saspect, it may live upto 8. If a beneflcis retrograde in the 6th, 8th or the l2th being in aspect to a malefic, death will occur within a month of birth. This is true only when the ascendantis unoccupiedby a benefic. Should the 5th bc occupiedby Saturn,Mars and tbe Sunjointly, (early) death of mother and brother will come to pass. Mars placed in the ascendantor in the 8th and be conjunct Saturn or Sun or be in aspectto a malefic,being bereft of benefic aspect will prove a sourceof (immediate)death. Notes : Here a pertinent query may emergeas to why the sagementions combinations for preMture death while longevity cannot be decidedly declared upto the 24thyear ofage as per his own statement. These yogas will guide us to dctect thc immediatedefects for longevity and resort to remedial measureg like firc sacrifice,prayers, donations, medicineetc. and save thc from Akala Mrity.u or prematuredeatb, vide ch. 5 of Horasarr. The Moon in an evil houseat'birth and in aspect to a malefic will cause.early death. Even a benqfic'saspect on the Moon, in the said Yoga, will causethe end at the age of E, suggeststhe sage.

Should he be in the 6th/8th/l2th, financial conditionswill decline. A beneficin the 2nd will give wealthwhile a malefic insteadwill destroythe same.

Monetary deficiencieswill as well persist throughout. iili dtn qi vr* q.ii quig* r .qi q qudgril qffii qiqq: uetl 9. EXPENSESON GOODACCOUNTS..

FAME ETC, : If the 2nd lord is in own sign or is exaltedthe nativewill look after his people,will help othersand will becomefamous. Notes : Our text requiresthe 2nd lord to be in exaltation or in own sign so that the nativewill look after his people& C. It has been practically seen that the 2nd lord's dignity is essentialfor one to be helpful to others and be dutiful towards his family members.Chaukhamba edition has almosta different condition in this place : It statesthat the 2nd lord shouldbe in deep exaltation or in own sign and be in aspectto Jupiter. The net resultgiven therein is "fame and liked bypall". The condi- 'deep' tion of exaltation seemsto me to be somewhatin excess of the requirementwhile a simple own sign positionis givenas an alternative. As such,I feel mereexaltation of the 2nd lord is cnoughfor obtainingthe saidresults. ftqil qr srqTg€cTq{TE[E6FTlnr[Tq: u t v l l Cbapterl4 EffectsOf The Third House srarfqrq$Trqrq $d ?raqtft q't fae ! r q€t elralgsi srrqrTr1fqnql r(: ut tl l. O Brahmin,I now tell you aboutthe 3rd house.Should the 3rd housebe conjunct or aspectedby a benefic, the native will be endowedwith.co-born and be courageous. Notes : 'Bhratru' in Sanskrit simply means a brother. Proper adjectiveis to be added, riiz. Jyeshtofor elder and Kanishta for younger, to the word Bhratru. The 3rd house spccificallydeals with the after-bornwhile the I I th housedeals with preborn. This can be seep from sloka 32, Ch. 32 infra. In the said chapter the sage instructsus to considerMars for the 3rd bhavaand Jupiterfor I lth bhava, Youngersister is denotedby the 3rd houseand Mars wbile eldersister by the llth houseand Jupiter. 138 Brihat ParasaraHora Sastra q-q'tql qrqqri{fr srrEqrt qqwrfr| uqrierral Ersfqqqqri fqfrmE rrtrr 2. If the 3rd lord along with Mars aspectsthe 3rd house the nativewill enjoy good resultsdue to the 3rd house.Alterna- tively thesetwo planetsmay be in the 3rd itself. Notes : Mars alonein the 3rd, exceptin Capricorn or in Scorpio or in Arics, is not conductiveto brothers. The form of our slokais differentin that the 3rd housebe jointly aspectedor occupiedby Mars and the 3rd lord for the prosperityof coborn. qrqqlir r1 qlqai"qlti qT gir: r siitiErt fr(qq qql fqEarfra irrc: rrlrr 3.

Notes: "The coborn will not live long" is the hint givenby the phrase"Sadyo nihantarau". Mars and the 3rd lord joining in a malefic's sign or joining a malefic is said to be adversefor the longevityof coborn. Similarly Jupiterand the I lth lord in sucha stateis adversefor elderbrothers and eldersisters; Vcnus and the 7th lord so placed for the spouse,Jupiter and the 5th lord so placedfor progeny; Sunand the 9th lord so placedfor father,the Moon and the 4th lord so placedfor mother,and so on and so forth. So to sry the significatorand the lord of the concernedhouse together in a malefic's sign or with a malefic (or in an evil house)will bring harm to the saidrelative. e*rql Hracrin: r{tuq} $ni!fl?rr:I qf{i} TnE r{r qlilr tltiaq}aftrrvrr fq{ fqsrqcf Erid qiltqqfqf{qiqm r 4-4t. FEMALE AND MALE COBORN .' If the 3rd lord is a female planetor if the 3rd house be occupied by female planets, one will havesisters born after him. Similarly male planetsand male signsdenote you.nger brothers. Should it be of mixed nature, coborn of both sexes will be obtained. These effectsbe declaredafter assessingthe strength and weaknessof the concerned. Chapter 14 t39 Notes : Saturnand Mercuryare termedas neutralplanets. Rahu and Ketu are shadowyones. In the matterof deciding the sexofcoborn or progeny, Saturnand Rahu be treated as maleswhile Mercury and Ketu are females. (Trailokyapraknsikavide sloka l2 treatsKetu as a female and Rahuas aeunuch. Daivagnabharanavide ch, I, s. 14-15 considersthe reverseof this at one place and imediately quotes a differentsihool of thought. thus : Rahu is a malepi"nrt uod Ketu a eunuch.) All odd signsare malesigns and all evensigns are female signs.Male signsexclusively occupied by maleplanets will cause birth of brothers. Converseis the casewith femalesigns occu- pied by female planets. This should be known from the 3;d house being male or female sign& C. If the 3rd houseis occupiedby a maleplanet as well as a female planet,there will be brothers and sistersas well. The contributionwill come to passif the contributor is strong.For example,Jupiter in the 3rd in a malesign if strongwill causethe birth of a brother.If he is weak,acquisition of brother through Jupitrr will not be fruitful. Then one hasto look uptoalternative sources whether the native will havea brother or not. q* gqqdtnqft aqlat|lmnrl n{tl *afhftri qTsfq sftqfqxqqft r 6r* (€td n qqtk{ fsfrfil( rrqrr 5-6. Should the 3rd lord and Mars be togetherin the gth, destruction of coborn will result. Happinessin this respect will come to pass if Mars or the 3rd lord is in an angleor in a trine or in exaltation/friendlydivisions. Notes : The suggestionsgiven in the notes for sloka 3 about spouse,elder brother, mother etc. may be suitably extendedin this respectwith the help of the presentverse. For example, if Venus and 7th lord are together in the gth, the native'smarried life will be short (and in bad taste.) Similarly, their conjunction in an angle or in a trine will confer longlastingbenefic effects. Further hint that can be taken from the versein question is : If a significator and houselord join togetherin a sign which is identical with debilitation/inimical sign for one of them" the t40 Brihat Parasarafiora Sastrd significanceof the planet is lost. If they join in a signwhich is exaltation/friendlysign for one of tbem,then the significanceof the planetgains prosperity. qqri guiy* il{tfr q:a{rqt I firt* ffqqqqfr cfq;hTqal qqit llell q{qq e6}ar}sc}rrqdtqrgId} rriq t $rc* {r6{i{{t qQ..lfr g {tqt ttctt q{qlE ''rqlarivd R{ g ai?d se( r qrq(?rr{TfirE*'ri 6Kt aqfet}wt rterr dtiq ql€e qla* frqt arcn qlqlr: t .tr ctaaari ailcETrfiftI;it qdtamnil!oll qcflTi itlri iq nEd s ttf etq t dqt: e6tart: qq * u{lfftidfan: llt tll 7-ll. NUMBER OF BROTIIERSAND SISIfRS ; If Mercuryis in thc 3rd whilethc 3rd lord and Moon are together as thc indicttor (Mars) joins Saturn, the cffects are : there occurredthe birth of an elder sisterand therewill be youngcr brothers.Further the third brother will die' ShouldMars and Rahube conjunct while the 3rd lord is in his signof debilitation' there will be lossof youngcr brothers/sisterswhile 3 elder brothers/sisterswere attaincd by the native. Jf the 3rd lord is in an anglewhile the significatoris exaltedin a trine and be in the companyof Jupiter, l2 will be the numberof total coborn. Out of these2 eldersand the 3rd, 7th, 9th and l2th of younger coborn will be shortlived while six of the said twelvewill be longlived. 'Karaka' Notes : The word or significatorin sloka7 etc. shouldbe wiselynoted as Mars only and not as Jupiter,which is borneby slokaI l. In the contextof indication of one'o having12 coborn, this may be taken in the presentage to be a numberof coborn, if not literally 12. Mars exalted and being in the companyof Jupiteris denoted which meansJupiter will be in fall. Someof the coborn will die obviously becauseof Jupiter's debilitatioa taking awaysome potence of exaltedMars.

ADVERSE PLANEZ,S: The Sun in the 3rd will destroythc prehorn. The afterborn will be destroyedif Saturn is found in rhe 3rd. In the same situationMars will destroy both the prebornand later born. Notes : Sage Bhrigu alsoopines that the Sun in the 3rd house will not allow the nativeto retain his elder brothers. This position will affect one'srelationship with brothers and sisters. Regarding Mars in the 3rd, Garga Maharshi states that the nativewill obtain two brothersand two sistersall the 4 of whom will pass awayearly. The placementof Mars in the 3rd hasalso adverse say on the native's character.

O Brahmin, now I tell you the effectsrelated to the 5th house.If the lords of the ascendantand the 5th are in their own signsor in an angleor in a trine, one will enjoythorough happinessthrough his children. Should the 5th lord be in the 6th, Stttor l2th, there will be no offspring, Shouldthe lord of tbe 5th be combustor be with'malefics and be weak, there will be no children; evenif per chance issuesare obtainedthey will only quit the world soon. . Notes : "Suta" in Sanskritused in compoundword or ag an adjectivedoes not excludea femaleissue for it means"bego' tten". Thereare howeverspecific occasions where the expression "son" is exclusivelydenoted by this tgrm. A logical approach accordingto circumstancesis neededin interpretingsuch express- tons. The conjunctionof the 5th lord with thc ascendantlord in a good house will ensureearly obtainment of children apart from happinessthrough them.

In the case of the latter two Lagnas, Saturn though rules the 5th is hetpless obviously becauseof afriction by Gulika.

RELATII/ES AFFECTED .. The Karaka of a rclative or the lord of such a house joining the 6th lord or being in the 6th/8th house indicates ulcers/bruisesto such a rclative tike father. The Sun with such lordship and in such a housc dcnotes such affectation of head,the Moon face,Mars neck, Mercury navel, Jupiter nose, Venus eyes, Saturn. feet and the aodesabdomen. Notes : In these three slokas, we are instructedto know of the possibleaffiictions to the natlve'srelatives and to the native bimself - both from the horoscopeof the native. Chapter17 153 Firstly a certain significator or a certain bhavalord should join the 6th lord or be in the 6th/8th house so that the relative signifiedby the said Karaka incurs ulcers, bruises etc. For erample,in a SagittariusLagna horoscope, the 6th lord is Venus. The 6th is Taurus and the 8th is Cancer. Suppose the 4th lord Jupiter or the Matrukaraka Moon (signifying mother) joins Venus or is in Taurus. (Cancer though the 8th house, the Moon thereinshould not be deemedharmful in this regard and Jupiterin Cancerwill not alsoaffict the motheras he is exalted thereand protLctsthe 4th by aspect.)As a result, the mother will incur ulcer, bruisesetc. The relatives signifiedby planetsand Bhavasare denoted in ch, 32, infra. The second clue is to know the possibleaffiiction, to the native,of a particularareain the body. If the Sun is the lord of' the 6th houseor is with the 6th lord or is in the 6th/8th,the native will be apt to incur affiiction of head, dnd so on and forth. As regards, Rahu and Ketu, they do not own any house in the normal context. Hence their position in the 6th/8th or goiningthe 6th lord needonly be considered' Rahu or Ketu in the 6th/8th will causestomachial disorders' rnrnfqq: gqqii tqt qf{ dfeqa:I Itlt ga ftual i< {tfi{a'l gqattlit: llqll 6.

Even lf Mars, ruling the ascendant,is in Gemini or in Virgo and is aspectedby Mercury, the native will suffer facial diseases' The occuPationcan be in anYbhava. As regardsAries Lagna and Scorpio Lagna a different look be given to the placementof Mars in own sign.

"";;;;;;; Notes : The bints given abovecan be summed up as under : Chapter17 155 Lordsof the 6th and8th in theascendant being with the Sun : Tumours,fever etc. " Mars Diseasesof blood vessels, hits, woundsetc. " Mercury Bilious disease(like jaundice). " Jupiter Freedomfrom diseases. t' Venus Diseasescaused by sexual union. " Saturn : Windy diseaseslike rheu- matism,artheritis, paralysisetc. " Rahu : Danger from the so called Iow-castemen. " Ketu : Diseasesof the navel. " the Moon : Drowning, cough,tuberculosis, asthmaand other lung disorders. Replacing the ascendantwith a ceriainbhava, these affiic- tions to the concernedrelatives be predicted. For example,if the 6th and 8th lordsjoin the Moon in the 3rd bhava, danger to cobornby drowning,lung disordersetc. be known. Should Venus join the 6th and 8th lords in the I lth house; an elder brother of the nativewill incur venerealdiseases. Thus the qluesgiven by the sageshould be extensivelyand cffectiv"ly applied in regard to diseasesfor the native and his relatives. . The affiictions to be causedby the planets,signs etc. have been rather exhaustivelygiven in the notesin ch. 47 of my English translation of Saraveli. Though it wasin the context of death,the samemay be carefully used in knowing diseasesas well. The readermay accordinglyconsult the said Notes. Dr. H. L. Cornell, M.

However, Ramadayalustates in this context thus, qffilfrflfr{rtffrrdr ilqqfqt meaningthat the native'swife will brilliantly shinewith chastity or devotionto husband. Lord Rama's sacredhoroscope is a classicexample having Cancer ascendant with Saturo, the ?th lord, in the 4th-of course in exaltation. I do not possess eventhe slightestcompctence to saythat the Maharshi,sview is untenable.. 'In this context, however,I quote a horoscope from "SaptarshiNadi" (Volumefor Tiurus ascendant). The whole Nadi wasa product of intcrcoursebetween four groupsof sages,. eachgroup havingseven great sages,in the benign presencJof Parvati, a consort of Lord Siva. h, the seminaron Taurus asce.,dant,Parasara was also a participant. The horoscopein particrrlar(bearing No. 25 in thc original volume)was analysed by Parasarahimself as one of the sevenRishis io dialogue. See the nativity : Merc Sun Ven 211 Brihat ParasaraHora Sastru Dealing with the above horoscope, Parasaradescribes lhe native's spouse thus : "she will be somewhat short- tcmpered. Shewill deliver auspiciouswords. She will be dear to her husband. Shewill live begettingfame from all the four directions. She will be fortunate. She will be freefrom any blemish(or Dosha). Shewill be dark in complexion. She will feed the needy. In beauty, she will be akin to Rathi (the extremelycharming spouse of the extremely ch'armingCupid, the Hindu God of beautyand sonof Maha Vishnu). She will possessmany ornamentsand be intelligent. Shewill be modest and will not haveany desirefor other men (than her spouse,i.e. the native in que3tion)." This is how sageParasara describes the wife of the nativein questionin verses27-29 ibid. Though no direct reason has been attributed for the chastity of the spouse,we cannotignore the dispositionof the 7th lord, parti- cularly with debilitatedMoon in the 7th. The ?th lord is in the ' 4th giving the native a spousewho would be extremelydevout proving an asset to the husband. As such the view of our presentsloka in regardto the spouseis at the outset defective. Thus the wife cannotbe out of the control of the native. The Chaukambhaedition alsoclearly states that the native'swife will not be chaste, see qrql{aqlilfrilr and hencethe versionof our slokais also rightly interpreted. {titi qsqt qra qrfi qrigsnftm:r gtitr erlftr{q ttw wierrrftrq:rieetl 77.lt the 7th lord is in the5th, nativewill be honourable, cndowedwith all (i.e. sevenprincipal) virtues, always delighted and endowedwith all kinds of wealth. Notes : I have observed two salient featuresin the 7th tord's gcttinginto the 5th house. These are : (l) Delay and disappointmentsin marriedlife. The conjugallife seldomproves happy. (2) Severeaflliction to progenic indications' Either there will be unhappinesson account of children or lossof children. The effects mentioned by the sage, viz' virtues, wealth, honour and (general) happinesswitl also come to pasS. The happinessabout marriageand progenywill visibly be absent.

If the 8th lord is in the 8th the native will bc long' tived. If the said planet be weak being in the 8th, the longevity will be medium, while the native will be a thief, be blameworthy and will blame others well. Notes : In remainingin the 8th itself,the 8th lord should be quite strongin Shadbala,so the native will be long'lived. If he is bereft of strength, the native will not enjoy full spanof life. The 8th house in occupationby its own lord will givea spouse with questionable character. However she will be a sourceof financial help to the natirrc by her own earningsor Chapter24 219 properties. The native will inherii ancestralproperties as well. The evil effectscited above will not cometo passfor an Aquarius nativehaving Mercury in exaltationin the gth in Virgo. He shouldbe within the first half of Virgo to stall the saidevils. h the later portion of Virgo his potenceconsiderably decreases. qcei{T irq:Tanl u{r}6t rrftao: I " S6eqrqfq[d{*Er rTTa6rnq{r($,: nqltt - 93. If the 8th lord is in the 9th, the nativewill betrayhis relig on, be a heterodox,will begeta wicked wife and will steal others'wealth.

If the sum is 4 Rasis& c or g Rasis & c, the degrees etc. (ignoring Rasis) be subtracted from 60. This will be the aspectualvalue. The sum being in conformitywith others than thesebe treatedas statedearlier. Notes : Throughout this chapter and others related to calculationof strengthsof planetsand houses,the term ..Virupa' Chapter 26 2s7 'Shashtiamsas' 'Kalas'. has been used which denotes or 60 such units makeonq Rupa. The planet that aspects is Drishti Graba or the aspector. The planet that is aspected is known as Drisya Graha 'the or the aspected. The longitude of aspected'.is to be deducted from that of the aspector. If the longitudeof the aspectedis lesserthan that of the aspector, increasethe longi- 'the tude of aspected'by 360 to facilitate deduction,which will yield the aspectualor Drishti angle. After finding out the'Drishtiangles, the variousquantities will have to be processedas under with the relevant principles : Rule l. When aspectual angle is between 30 and 60 degrees,reduce 30 degrees from the resultant aspectualangle and tlivide by 2 to get aspectualvalue. Rule 2. If the aspectudlangle is above60 but below 90 degrees,reduce 60 from the aspectual angle and add 15 to get aspectualvalue. Rule 3. In case the aspectual angle is above90 but less than 120 degreesthe aspectualanglebe redirced from I20, then halvedand then increacedby 30, to get aspectualvalue. Rule 4. If the aspectual angle is between 120and 150 degrees,reduce tle angle of aspect ttom 150to get aspectual value, Rule 5. If the aspectualangle is between 150 and 180 degreesreduce I50 from aspectualangle and double the resultantsum to get aspectualvalue. Rule 6. When the aspectualangle is above 180but below 300degrees deduct the aspectualangle from 300and halvethe resultantsum, to get aspectualvalue. Needlessto mentionthere is no aspectualvalue if the angle is between300 and 30 degrees. . For housein aspect,consider the cusp of the hpuse, akin to a planetary degree. In the caseof aspectsfrom Saturn, Mars and Jupiter,the followingadditions may be notedas a simpleformula. A) Mars : When the aspectangle is 9G120degrees or 210- . 249degrees, add 15Virupas to the valueobtained from the speculum. 258 grihat parasara Eora Sastra B) Jupiter : When theaspect ' anglc is 120-t50degrees or .240-270 degrees incrcase the speculum ' valuc by 30 Virupas. C) Saturn : When the aspect angle is 6G90 degreesor 270-300degrebs and 45 Virupas to the value obtained from the speculum.

I5,.30, 45 and 60 Virupas are in order given to Varsha lord, Maasalord Dina lord and Hora lord. Naisargikabala (or natural,strength) hasalready been explained. Notes : Under this hqadiiry, four different planets get certainVirupas. Thesestrengths are : Varsha(Abda) lord : 15 ViruPas Masa (nronth) lord = 30Virupas' Dina (day) lord : 45 Virupas Hora (hour) lord : 60 Virupas How to decidethe saidlordships is explainedas under. Varsha lord : Astrological year is different from othet mcasures. The day on which the astrologicalyear begins can be found out from the Speculum of abbreviatedAharganas, vide p.272.To know the Varsbalord we shouldfirst ascertainthe number of days past from thc beginning of Creation. This is a very tedious process and hence we are concernedwith the abbreviated Ahargana (or the number of days past from Chapter 27 .' 271 Creation). According to late Rev. Ebenezer Burgess, who translatedSurya Siddhantain Englisb, as on January l, 1g60, the number of dlys past from the beginning of Creation are 714,404,108,573. To know tho day on which the astrologicalyear in which birth took placebegan adopt ihe following formula. Divide the number of days past from the day of Crcation till the day of birth by .60. Rejoot remainder and mulriply the qgotient by 3. Increascthe post-multiplied product by I and divide by 7. The remainderwill indicatc the week day on which the astrolo- gical year giving birth to the native opened. Remainder I indicatesSunday, 2 Monday and so on and so forth. Assumethat birth took place on June l, 1984. Locate from the Speculum of Abbreviated Aharganasfor January O date 1984as 65142. Add 153 being the numberof d4ysupto the day of birth (inclusivc thc birth date). Thus we get abbre- viated days past from crcation to birth as 65295. This product ihen divided by 3CI yields a quotient of l8l. Ramaindcr is to te rejected. l8I multiplied by 3 indicates543. Increasedby l, this gives544. When 544 is divided by 7, thc remainderis 5. That is, the astrological year of birth for one born on June l, 1984 began on a Thursday. Hence this strengthor Varsha bala goesto Jupiter, the ruler of Thursday Mgsa Iord ; Divide the same Ahargana by 30 and the quotient (devoid of remainder) iodi*t"r' months passedfrom Creationto birth. The completed months be multiplied by 2 gnd increasedby l. The Iatestsum should be divided by Z and the remainder indicates on which the birth month began. Continuing with the same case, we divide 65295 by 30. Quotientis 2176. This sum multiplied by 2 and increasedby I .denot€s4353. Dividing 4353 by 7, we get a remainderof 6 denoting Friday. That is, the month of birth beganon Friday and lhe Masa bala goesto Venus,the lord of Friday. Dim 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 Ahargana followed iscorrect or is otherwise. The number of tr,.ys as arrived above indicating Ahargana be divided by 7 and the remainder will indicate the week day of birtb. In the examplecase 65295 272 Brihat ParasaraHora S.astra dividedby ? leavesa remainder of 6. That is June 1,1984is Friday. Hencethe Aharganafollowed by us is correct. While consideringDina bala, the birth should be treated from sunris€ to sunrise. Hence in this case,the Dina bala goes to Venus,ruler of ttto"t;oruBara : Hora meansplanetary hour. Eachday from runriseto sunriseis dividedinto 24 equalparts of one hour or 2.5 ghatikas. TheseHoras are ruled by the 7 planetsfrom the Sun to Saturn. The first Flora of the day is ruled by the lord of the weekday. The 2nd one is ruled by the lord of the 6th weekday countedfrom the first ruler. The 3rd Hora is ruled by fte lord of tbe 6th week day countedfrom the 2nd Hora lord. Similarly it proceedsin the same mannertill the first Hora of the next day is taken over by the lord of that. day himself. Whicheverplanet rules the birth Hora getsthe Hora Bala. Horas are to be calculated for mean local time and ngt standardtime of birth. For easy ,referince, consult the Speculum of Horas Vide infra. Speculumof AbbreviatedAhargana for Januaiy 0 Yr.

If two planetsare of equal Shadbala, then the one with higher Naisargika Bala prevails over the other. rtrttfi€Fl: w: sqf: qou'6,i{r:wrqfr t wqir{qlnfirqeqqrs$drv fi [l {tl q1ilftr,Eilrfuatn fenrmugar Frqr:I FqToi qqM rfi.etq f"ffiIullrtl ilqrss(Idaq{fiori qd, f,Tq fiil uil I n{flqnq fefuim iqqTqftf ad{nlstl Chapter 27 277 15-17AYANA BALA : 45, 33 and 12 are the Khandas for calculatingAyana Bala. Add Ayanamsato the planet (for which Ayana Bala is required)and find out the Bhuja (distance from the nearestequinox). Add the figurecorresponding to the Rasi(of the Bhuja)to thc Bhuja. The degreesetc. of the Bhuja (devoidof Rasi)be multipliedby the figure correspondingto the higher of the left out Khandas and divided by 30. Add the resultant product to the sum obtained earlier. Convert this into Rasi etc. lf the Moon and Saturn are in Libra or ahead add to this 3 Rasis,and if in Aries to Virgo reducefrom 3 Rasis. Similarlyit is reversefor the Sun, Mars, Venusand Jupiter,(i.e. additionor deductionir converse). For Mercury 3 Rasisare alwaysadditive. The resultantsum in Rasi,degrees and minutes be dividedby 3 to get the AyauaBala in Rupas' Notes : Ayana Bala can be found out on the following simpleformula. : 2t 27 AyanaBala -!\r!anti X OO -(23"27' plus or minusKranti) x 1.2793 The following pointshave to be rememberedin respectof of Krantis. when the Moon or Saturnhave southern Kranti or whenthe Sun,Mars, Jupiteror Venushave Northern Kranti, take plus. In a contrarysituation in respectof these6 planets,take minus. As far as Mercury is concerned' it is always plus whetherhe has southern Kranti or Northern Kranti. Krantis (or declinations)can be ascertained from standard modern ephemeris. The Sun'sAyana Bala is againmultiplied by 2 whereasfor otherstheproductarrivedinVirupasisconsideredasitis.

Dhana Pada Arudha of 2nd house. 3. Vikrama(Bhratru) Pada Arudha of 3rd house. 4. Matru (Sukha)Pada Arudha of 4th bouec. 5. Mantra or PutraPada Arudha of 5th house. 6. Roga or Satru Pada Arudha of 6th house: '1. Dara Pada(Kalatra Pada) Arudha of 7th house. 8. MaranaPada Arudha of 8th house. 9. Pitru Pada Arudha of 9th house. 10. Karma Pada Arudhaof l0th house. 11. Labha Pada Arudha of llth houso. 12. Vyaya Pada Arudbaof l2th house. In calculating the Arudha pada for a house; note the number of signsits lord movedaway from that particular sign. Count so many signs from the lord in question. The sign so arrived will be the Arudha for the sign under consideration. In the standardnativity, Scorpio is the ascendantand its lord Mars is 9 signsaway from the ascendantand is iri Canccr. 2Xt brihat parasaratiora Sastra w.:coun! f.n3 9 signcfrom Cancerand get pisces. pisces is thus the Arudha pada or of the ascendant(i.e.Lgna pada).Now see the Arudha chart for tle sai-dnativity on p.

Ifthe said llth is aspectedby a beneficfrom the ascendanlthe 9th etc. gainswill increasein the ascendingorder. In all thesecases, tbe l2th from Pada be simultaneouslyfree from maleficassociation. Notes : From the Arudha ascendant,the llth house'is important in deciding the financialgains to be enjoyedby the native. Sirnultaneouslythe l2th from Arudha Lagna should be free from maleficrelationship. If the planetrelated to the l lth from Lagnarudhais strongerthan the one relatedto l2th from Lagnarudha,even then there will be gains. lf moreare well relatedto the I lth gainswill be still n1ore. For Argala, seech. 3l infra . A beneficplaced in theascendantaspecting the I lth from Arudha Lagnawill be still beneficial. If the aspectis from the 9th from Lagna,it will confer much moregains. The llth Arudha aspcctedby a favourableplanet rvill alsoconfer abundant gains. In the standardnativity, Jupiter is in the 9th in exattation and aspects the I lth housefrom Arudha Lagnaand also the llth Arudha (i e. Labharudha). Hencein Jupiter'sDasa, the native can hope for abundantfinancial and professionalgains. q(Fqrrlit \ .qt fqs t qqqngilffiil | naer6eafwtiti fHakrsiaq aEInlqtl qqqA gflfrr FqT'rh nq*qt r fali fqarqd qnqiri qT*sfq crqil rrturr 16-17.PADA AND FINANCIAL LOSSES(upto stoka 2I) : Ifthe l2th from Lagna Padais aspectedby conjunctboth benofics and malefics,there will be.abundant earningsbut plenty of expenses,The benefic will cause through fair mcans,."l"fi" tlrough unfair meansand mixed planets through both fair a.nd unfair means.

In this case,the Sun if .*ilt.d or ina friendly sign,is.not a malefic.He is a malerlcif in debilitationor in an enemy'ssign. Notes : RegardingUpa pada calculations,therc are more thln two views on the same sloka of Parasaraor an idcntical Sutra from Jaimini. In our text, the word "qgqq" (Anuchara) is used which denotes"the house following the ascendantat birth". some interpretthis as the 5th from ascendantwhile I feel it shouldbe the housesucceeding the natalascendant, which is the l2th trousein normal sense. Howevet,when we studyother commentarieson Jaimini' (for examplechaukamba Hindi edition), we are taught that it is an' odd sign iU. tZrtt housefrom natal ascendantin the caseof in the ur".naing and it is the 2nd house from natal ascendant meseerhs'is caseof io sign ascending' This argument' "r.o the 2nd from moresound. Accordinglythe Padafor the l2th or pada' rules L"goo is called Upa pada. In calculating Upa tle in mentionedin verses4 and 5 of the previous chapterbe kept mind. Now take the standardnativity. The ascendantis Scorpio' is an evensign. Its 2nd houseis sagittariuswhose lord Jupiter 8 signsaway from Sagittarius. Hence we count 8 signs from Jup-iter(in Cancer). We so reach Aquarius which is the Upa pada in this case. {rrTr6qt {rur*gww'cn Gtftq* t llell {qS qq1qt a 5ftti ft sui c€it{ srtsieq Giitd q ;itqt{i ffiqE t qr{{r qaa ETr{ffiqfti silt6} ttctt A=qiqi taliqi€A il fi{fteqltq 6ql 1 qqF( rq.A qrtl cqe|qqlRgtI : uQtl Chapter 30 305 stTfs6' Efln ?n fqqi iRqil sfrrt ir? qRn* fqlr ! .g."g" qiq tttott sqrsi GaEsfqsfq €rarfqqtigil t eqqiil atml qfqilfq qr grrfr rrlf( nttll q([r q.qfr dqlsdrlsri q ;nl GerqtTq! t sarrqfq ffir} qritq q rinq:ntRtl 7.12. EFFECT OF 2ND FROM UPA PADA .. If thc 2Nd from Upa pada is a beneficsign or is aspectedby or conjunctwith a benefic,the samegood results(as for wife and sons)will comc to pass. If there be a planet in the 2nd from Upa pada in debilitation sign/Amsaor be conjunct with a debilitatedlmalefic planet, there will be destructionof wife. If the said occtrpant be in exaltationsign/Navamsa or be aspectedby another planct, therewill be many charmingand virtuouswives. O Brahmin,if Gemini happensto be the 2nd from Upa pada, then also thcre will be many wives. O excellint of the Brahmins, if the Upa- rudha or the 2nd therefrom be occupiedby its own lord or if the saidlord is in his other own house,the deathof wife will be at an advancedage. Notes : In the examplecase, the Upa pada is in Aquarius, a malefic'ssign and is powprfully aspectedby malefic Mars and is without benefic'saspect. However, thc 2nd from Upa pada is well fortified as its lord Jupiter is exalted and aspects the said 2nd house. Hence the native is happily married and endowed with progenichappiness. Loss of wife is to be expcctedif thc 2nd from Upa pada is occupiedby a debilitated planet, or the occupantof the aaid 2nd is in debilitation Navamsa,or is conjunct a debilitatedplanet (i.e. a baneficdebilitated joining a maleficin the 2ird from Upa pada) or a beneficjoining a maleficin said 2nd house. Taurus becomingthe Upa pada is said to givc many wives or plurality of marriage. Although there may be combinations for early loss of spouseif the 2nd lord from Uparudha(or Upapada)is in the 2nd itself or is in his other sign, it.will considerablyprot€ot the native from such a calamity. And the spouseas a resultwill live udto an advancedage. 306 Brihat ParasaraHora Sastra Tq TTqrSt twrflqi il?rrr$qt laqtf,q ! t tqqif 3,wtT *nftnr wnlqq s€vql aq* fqq ! nRwr€er qfEulvtl Erg"dr dcrrsdsqqrdfr{6gaart qriuk{arae fq*: gr} fqqrqa:nR{tr tatva dtq mafrtwgfrf qtq6rE q66rilqFQqtqRa uwqfqil t qk} qEk anR€6: {q€rq??I{ftt illsll 37.
