Chakra
50-51. If the birth is at night, the Dasha will commence from Lagna Rāśi. If the birth is during the day, the Dasha will start from the Rāśi, in which the Lord of Lagna is placed. If the birth is during Sandhya, the Dasha will begin from the Rāśi of the second House. The Dasha of each Rāśi is 10 years. As it is the Dasha system of the 12 Rāśis in the Zodiac, it has been named, as Chakra Dasha.Kala Chakra
52-53. Mahārśi Parashara said. O Brahmin! Now, after making obedience to Lord Shiva, I shall describe the Kala Chakra Dasha. Whatever was related by Lord Shiva to Goddess Parvati, is being explained by me for the use of sages to be utilized for the welfare of the people.54-55. By drawing vertical and horizontal lines, prepare 2 Charts, Savya and Apsavya, of 12 apartments (Kosthas) each. From the second Kostha in each Kundali fix the Rāśis Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces. Then Nakshatras may be incorporated in the manner, indicated hereafter. These Charts, indicative of the 12 Rāśis, are called Kala Chakra.
56-58. Write Ashvini, Bharani and Kritika in the Savya Chakra and Rohini, Mrigashira, Ardra in the Apsavya. Then incorporate the three following Nakshatras, Punarvasu, Pushya and Aslesha in the Savya and Magha, Purvaphalguni and Uttaraphalguni in the Apsavya. Then incorporate the three following, Hast, Chitra and Swati in the Savya and Vishakah, Anuradha and Jyeshtha in the Apsavya. Then incorporate Mul, Purvashadha and Uttarashadha in the Savya and Shravan, 2ndishtha and Shatabhisha in the Apsavya. Finally incorporate the last three Nakshatras, Purvabhadrapad, Uttarabhadrapad and Revati in the Savya Chakra. Now there will be 15 Nakshatras in the Savya and 12 Nakshatras in the Apsavya, (because for the 12 Rāśis there are 12 Padas of 3 Nakshatras, the Navāmśaas). The Padas of Ashvini, Punarvasu, Hast, Mul, Purvabhadrapad, Kritika, Aslesha, Swati, Uttarashadha and Revati of the Savya should be reckoned in the same manner, as the Padas of Ashvini.
59. Now I shall describe in detail, how the Deha and Jiva should be reckoned in the Padas (quarters) of the Nakshatras.
60. In the first Pad of Ashvini Aries is indicative of Deha (body) and Sagittarius is indicative of Jiva (life). And the Lords of Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius are Lords of the Dashas in the order, as described before.
61. In the second Pad of Ashvini Capricorn is Deha and Gemini is Jiva and the Lords of the nine Rāśis from Capricorn to Gemini are Lords of the Dashas.
62. In the third Pad of the ten Nakshatras, beginning from Ashvini, Taurus is Deha and Gemini is Jiva. The Lords of the Rāśis Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Aries, Taurus and Gemini are Lords of the Dashas in that order.
63-64. For the 4th Pad of the 10 Nakshatras, beginning from Ashvini, Cancer is Deha and Pisces is Jiva and the Lords of the nine Rāśis from Cancer to Pisces are the Lords of Dashas.
65. In the four Padas of the 5 Nakshatras, Bharani, Pushya, Chitra, Purvashadha and Uttarabhadrapad, Deha and Jiva are the same, as for Bharani.
66. In the first Pad of Bharani Scorpio is Deha and Pisces is Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Cancer, Leo, Gemini, Taurus, Aries and Pisces are the Lords of Dashas in this order.
67. In the 2nd Pad of Bharani Aquarius is Deha and Virgo is Jiva and the Lords of Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo and Virgo are the Lords of Dashas in that order.
68. In the 3rd Pad of Bharani Libra is Deha and Virgo is Jiva and Lords of the Rāśis Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Scorpio, Libra and Virgo are the Dasha Lords in this order.
69. In the 4th Pad of Bharani Cancer is Deha and Aquarius is Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Cancer, Leo, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn and Sagittarius are the Dasha Lords in this order.
71-72. O Brahmin! I have thus given you the description of Savya Chakra. Now I shall give the description of Apsavya Chakra. Prepare a similar chart of 12 apartments and from the 2nd apartment onwards place the Rāśis from Scorpio onwards in the reverse order. In this chart Deha and Jiva would be the same for Rohini, Magha, Vishakah and Shravan, as for Rohini.
73-76. In the first Pad of Rohini Cancer is Deha and Sagittarius is Jiva. The Lords of the Rāśis Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Leo and Libra will be the Dasha Lords in this order. In the 2nd Libra will be Deha and Virgo the Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio and Scorpio will be the Dasha Lords. In the 3rd Aquarius will be Deha and Virgo Jiva. The Lords of the Rāśis Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Sagittarius, Capricorn and Aquarius will be the Dasha Lords. In the 4th Scorpio will be Deha and Pisces Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Cancer, Virgo, Libra and Scorpio will be the Lords.
77. In the 4 Padas of the Apsavya Nakshatras Mrigashira, Ardra, Purvaphalguni, Uttaraphalguni, Anuradha, Jyeshtha, 2ndishtha and Shatabhisha the Deha and Jiva and the Dasha Lords will be the same, as for Mrigashira.
78-81. In the first Pad of Mrigashira Cancer is Deha and Pisces is Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn, Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo and Cancer will be the Dasha Lords in this order. In the 2nd Taurus is Deha and Gemini is Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Gemini, Taurus, Aries, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces, Aries and Taurus will be the Dasha Lords. In the 3rd Capricorn is Deha and Gemini is Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Gemini, Leo, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Pisces, Aquarius and Capricorn will be the Dasha Lords. In the 4th Aries will be Deha and Sagittarius Jiva and the Lords of the Rāśis Sagittarius, Scorpio, Libra, Virgo, Leo, Cancer, Gemini, Taurus and Aries will be the Dasha Lords.82. Mahārśi Parashara said. O Brahmin! The description of the Deha and Jiva of the Padas of the Apsavya Nakshatras and the Dasha Lords is the same, as narrated by Lord Mahadeva to Goddess Parvati.
83. Maitreya said. O Venerable Mahārśi Parashara! Now please guide me about the Dasha spans of the Dasha Lords, described by you. Please also demonstrate, how the commencement of the Dasha, its expired and the remaining periods at the birth are to be calculated.
84. Mahārśi Parashara said. 5, 21, 7, 9, 10, 16 and 4 years are the Dasha spans of Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn.
85-86. The span of life of a person is determined from the Padas (Ańśaas) of the Nakshatra at the time of birth, or the time of query and the years allotted to the 9 Rāśis, commencing from it (the Pad of the Nakshatra). Some sages are of the view, that the person will enjoy full span of life (Purna Ayu), if his birth is at the commencement of the Padas, will have middle span of life (Madhaya Ayu), if the birth is in the middle of the Padas and short span of life (Alap Ayu), or will face death-like sufferings, if the birth is at the end of the Padas of the Nakshatra.
87-88. According to this principle, we should be acquainted with the Padas of the Nakshatras. Now I shall tell you, how the calculations are made, according to the proportion of the Padas of a Nakshatra. The number of Ashvini etc., whichever may be the past Nakshatras, should be divided by 3. Thereafter the remainder should be multiplied by 4. To the figure so made available the Pad of the present Nakshatra should be added. The product will be the Navāmśa from Aries onwards.
89. The number of years (Purna Ayu) are, as under. For the Ańśa in Aries 100 years, in Taurus 85 years, in Gemini 83 years, in Cancer 86 years. The number of years will be the same for Rāśis, situated the 5th and 9th to them.
90-91. Multiply the past Ghatikas, Palas etc. of the Pad of the Nakshatra, in which a person is born, by the existing Dasha years and divide it by 15. The result will indicate the expired period of the Dasha in years, months etc. By deducting it from the total number of years allotted, we get the Balaance of Dasha at birth. The Dasha should be taken, as commencing from that Rāśi.
92. Multiply the past Ghatikas, Palas etc. of the present Pad of the Nakshatra by the number of years and divide the product by the fourth part of Bhabhog. The years etc. so obtained may then be deducted from the total Dasha period. The result will be the Balaance of Dasha at birth in years, months etc.
93. The past Kalas (minutes) of the Navāmśa, in which Moon may be placed, should be multiplied by the years, allotted to the Dasha and the product should be divided by 200. The resulting years etc. will be the expired portion of the Dasha. By deducting them from the total number of years the Balaance of the Dasha at birth is obtained.
94-95. In the Savya Chakra the first Ańśa is called Deha and the last Jiva. The opposite is the case in the Apsavya Chakra. Therefore the calculations should be based on the Deha etc. in the Savya Chakra and on the Jiva etc. in Apsavya.
We give below the Savya and Apsavya Kala Chakra Charts. For example. The birth is in Mrigashira 4th Pad. It is in the Apsavya Kala Chakra. The Lord of Deha is Mars and that of Jiva is Jupiter. The Bhabhog of Mrigashira is 59/31 (59 Ghatikas 31 Palas) and Bhayat is 58/15 (58 Ghatikas 15 Palas). ｼ of the Bhabhog comes to 14/52/44. That would be the value of one Pad. Multiplying this by 3 will get Ghatikas of 3 Padas, namely 44/38/15. Deducting this from Bhayat, the past Ghatikas, Palas etc. of the 4th Pad will be 13/36/45. The full Dasha years are 100. Multiplying this by 13/36/45 we get 1300/3600/4500 = 1361/15. This divided by 15 will give the expired period at birth, namely 90 years and 9 months. See the Kala Chakra. There we count from Jiva etc. to Deha. In the 4th Pad of Mrigashira Jiva is in Sagittarius and Deha in Aries. Therefore, by deducting the total of years from Sagittarius to Gemini, namely 77, from 90 years 9 months, we get the expired period of Taurus, namely 13 years and 9 months. By deducting this from the present 16 years of Venus, we will get 2 years and 3 months, as the Balaance of Dasha at birth. Accordingly, like Vimshottari Dasha, the order of Dasha will be Taurus, Aries, Sagittarius, Scorpio etc. For Example. Suppose, that at the time of birth of a person in Kritika Nakshatra the longitude of Moon is 1r4ｰ50. This converted into Kalas will be 2090 at birth. The Dasha should be taken, as commencing from that. Divide the Kalas by 800 (1 Nakshatra). The result will be the 2nd Nakshatra, namely Bharani and the remainder will be 490. These will be the past Kalas of Kritika. There are 200 Kalas in one Pad (Navāmśa). Divide 490, the past Kalas of Kritika, by 200. We will then get 2, as past Padas and the remainder 90 will represent the past Kalas of the present Nakshatra. By multiplying this by 83, the Dasha years, we will get 7470, which, divided by 200, will indicate the expired portion of the Dasha, as 37 years, 4 months and 6 days. By deducting the years of Dehāńś, commencing from Taurus, in the order Taurus, Aries, Pisces, Aquarius (16+7+10+4 = 37), we will get 0 years, 4 months and 6 days. This will be the expired portion of Capricorn. Deducting this from 4, the Dasha period of Capricorn, we get the Balaance of the Dasha of Capricorn, namely 3 years, 7 months and 24 days. See in this connection the Savya Kala Chakra.Gati of Rāśis in the Kala Chakra 96-98. There are three kinds of movements (Gati) of the Rāśis in the Kala Chakra, namely Manduki, Markati and Leoavlokan. The movement of one Rāśi by jumping over one Rāśi is known, as Manduki Gati. Backward movement to the previous Rāśi is called Markati Gati. The movement of a Rāśi to the 5th and 9th Rāśi is said to be Leoavlokan.99-100. Movement from Virgo to Cancer and from Leo to Gemini is Manduki Gati. Movement from Leo to Cancer is Markati Gati. Movement from Pisces to Scorpio and from Sagittarius to Aries is called Leoavlokan Gati.
Effects of Dashas of Rāśis, as a Result of these Gati 101-102. The effects of the Dasha of the Rāśis with Manduki Gati in the Savya Chakra are distress to friends, relations, parents and elders and there is likely to be cause for trouble from poison, weapons, thieves and enemies. In the Manduki Dasha of the Gati of a Rāśi from Leo to Gemini there is the likelihood of the death of the mother, or self, trouble from Government and possibility of brain fever.103. The effects of the Dasha of Rāśi with Markati Gati in the Savya Chakra are loss of wealth, agricultural products and animals, death of father, or an elderly close relation and feeling of lethargy.
104-105. The effects of the Dasha of the Rāśis with Leoavlokan Gati in the Savya Chakra are possibility of injury from animals, loss of amity with friends, distress to near relations, drowning in a well, fall from animals, possibility of harm from poison, weapons and diseases and destruction of residential dwelling.
106-108. In the Dasha of the Rāśis with the Manduki Gati in the Apsavya Chakra the effects will be distress to wife and conditions, loss of children, possibility of feverish conditions and loss of position. In the Dasha of the Rāśis with the Markati Gati there may be danger from watery places, loss of position, distress from father, punishment from Government and wandering in the forests; with the Simhaavlokan there may be destruction of the dwelling and death of father etc.
109-111. If the movement is from Pisces to Scorpio, the native may suffer from fever; if from Virgo to Cancer, there may be loss of brothers and kinsmen; if from Leo to Gemini, there may be ill health of the wife; if from Leo to Cancer, the native may die; if from Sagittarius to Aries, there may be death of uncles and similar relations. If the Rāśi is conjunct with a malefic, adverse conditions may be expected in the Dasha of the Rāśi. Favourable effects will be felt in its Dasha, if the Rāśi is conjunct with a benefic.
112-113. O Brahmin! In the Kala Chakra Dasha favourable and unfavorable effects may be predicted, after taking into account the directions of the Rāśis and Planets.
114-119. If the movement is from Virgo to Cancer, good results are realized in places, located in the East and at that time journeys to the places in the North prove fruitful. Unfavorable effects will be felt in places, located in the West and the South. It will be advisable not to undertake journeys in those directions in the Dasha of these Rāśis. If the movement is from Leo to Gemini, no journey should be undertaken to places, located in the East. However, the journeys to the South-West will prove fruitful in the Dasha of those Rāśis. If the movement is from Cancer to Leo, journeys during that period to the South will prove unfavorable and result in loss and the native has to return from the South to the West. If the movement is from Pisces to Scorpio, there will distress, if the native goes to the North. The same would happen, if the movement is from Sagittarius to Capricorn. There may be ill health, imprisonment, or death, if the movement is from Sagittarius to Aries. There may be gains, comforts and property and marriage, if the movement is from Sagittarius to Scorpio. It will not be advisable to undertake journeys to the West during the related period, if the movement is from Leo to Cancer. Favourable results should be predicted, if the Rāśis are conjunct with benefics and adverse, if the Rāśis are conjunct with malefics.
120-122. According to the above-mentioned Kala Chakra, the person, born in the Ańśaas of the various Rāśis, will be, as under. Aries Ańśa brave and a thief, Taurus wealthy, Gemini learned, Cancer king, Leo respected by king, Virgo learned, Libra minister, or adviser, Sagittarius sinful, Aquarius businessman, Pisces wealthy.
123-128. If the Deha, or Jiva Rāśis are conjunct with Sun, Mars, Saturn, or Rahu, the native will die. Worse results may be expected, if the Deha and Jiva Rāśis are conjunct with two, or all of them. If there is a malefic in Deha Rāśi, the native suffers ill health; a malefic in a Jiva Rāśi will make the native very timid. If the Deha and/or Jiva Rāśi are conjunct with two malefics, there will be distress and diseases. Three malefics in the Deha and/or Jiva Rāśi will cause premature death. Four malefics in the Deha and Jiva Rāśi will cause definite death. If both the Deha and Jiva Rāśis are occupied by malefics, there will be fear from king and thieves and death of the native. If Sun is in the Deha, or Jiva Rāśi, there will be danger from fire. Moon in the Deha, or Jiva Rāśi will cause danger from water, Marsfear from weapons, Mercury fear from windy troubles, Saturn fear from Gulma (a disease), Rahu and Ketu fear from poison. If the Deha, or Jiva Rāśis are occupied by Mercury, Jupiter and Venus, the native will be wealthy, will enjoy all kinds of comforts and will have good health. Mixed results may be expected, if the Deha and Jiva Rāśis are occupied by both benefics and malefics.
129-130. In the Dasha of the Rāśis, owned by malefics, the body and soul will be in distress. The effects will be favourable in the Dasha of the Rāśis, owned by benefics. If a malefic Rāśi is occupied by a benefic Planet, or, if a benefic Rāśi is occupied by a malefic Planet, the effects will be of a mixed nature.
