(
PAEFACE It har already been mentioned in preface to ths first volume of {his book translated by my learned colleagueShri R. Santhanamthat as.ShriMaha Vishnu is tae god of gods, Parasara flora is the book of books in the field of Astrology. Nothing better could be said about this greatclassicof Hindu Astrology. Due to the persistent approach of the publishers and non-availability of Mr. Santhanam due to his preoccupationfor the last three years, I had to take up this stup€ndous task of English translation of present volume of this great work. Thebook BRIHAT PARASARA HORA SASTRA ie made up of 97 chapters,45 of which havealready been publishedas Vol.I. I have grcat pleasurein presenting herewith the English translation, with comments'illustrations and illustrativecharts,of the remaining52 chaptcrs" The contentsofthese 52 chaptershavc been given infull , dotail in the Table of Contents" But for the grace. of God and thc oonstant Gncouragcmentand asiqtance by the publishers of this book, it would not have becn possible to compldtethis difficult aad etupendous task. I hopo this effort will prove useful to the readers.

Beginning from Krittika the lords of Dasas (periods)are the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter. Saturn, Mercury, Ketu and Venusin that order. Thus if the nakshatras from Krittika to the JanmaNakshatra (natal constellation)are dividea by nine, the remainder will signify the lord of the commencingDasa. The remainingDasaswill be of the planets in the order givenabove. In Kaliyugathe natural life span of a human being is generallytaken as 120 years. Therefore, Vimsottari Dasa is consideredto be the most appropriateand the bestof all Dasas.

Efirrnwa-qqtei*at qI;tTEfanlfeml il1qtr 16. To find out the remainderof the Dasa operatingat the time of birth, first find out tbe rxpiied portiou of the Dasaof the concernedplanet. This is done a, fbliows. Multiply the Dasa period of t|r' nlanet concerneiltry the period of the stay of the l!{oon in fne Janrna Naksl,ritrathat has expired arrd riivi{s it'b;. the total period of the stayof'tire Moon in ihat ,...ikshatra..The figurein years,months etc. so arrived al ,.r'ill be the expired period of tlie l)a.s:r lf this figure is de,.lucte,-! from the toial period of the Da.sa,we will get tbe balanceof ,Dasa at the time of birtl',. Example: Supposelhe birth hastaken place in Mrigasira Nakshatra. The lord of the Dasa operating at birth will, therefore, be Mars. The expiretlperiod (uatA) of Mrigasira is 58/15 (58 ghatisand l5 pala-")or 3415Palas. The total period (rdq) of Mrigasira is 59i31 (59 ghatis and 3! palas)or 35?l palas. 341-5rrruitipliedby ? years (L)asa period of Mars)comesto 24435. This divided by 357i will givethe expired period of (6 years,10 rnonths,6 day,22 ghatikasand Dasa as 61rc16,22,5 palas). By dcductingthis from 7 years,we will get the balancc 5 (1 month,23 days,3Tghatis of Dasa at birth as 0 1!23i37155 and 55 palas). Notes: The abovemethodis basedon Panchangas.

ctlculate the balanceof Dasa at birth based on the longitude of the Moon and to know the Janma Nakshatras. For this purpose it is imperative to give detailed information about Nakshatras(Constellations) first, evenat the ccst of occupation of valuablespace. As has already been mentioned in Vol.I ot this book, .tltereare 27 Nakshatras. One nakshatrameasurest3"-20' of aro and consistsof four padas (quarters)-of 3"-20'each.9 Padas (2.l Constellations) comprise a rasi (Sign). The rasis and nakshatrasare both reckonedfrom the same point, namely the pero degreeof Aries, the first sign of Zodiac. the constellations Like the s:igns, are ownedby the various planets. Hcre evenRahu and Ketu have ownershipover certain constcllations. The longitudinalspanof a rasi or signbeing30o and of a nakshatra 13'-20', the nakshatras are accommodated under the twelve rasis as shownin the following tableRrsis l. Aries
The figures 1,2,3,4 indicate the padas (quarters)of a nakshatra. We will now illustratehow the above information is to be utilised. A personwas born on23rd November,l93O at 2,15 P.M. We want to know his JanmaNakshatraandthe planetpresidingover the Dasa at the time of birth. The Longitude of the Moon is 8-I 3'-0' (SagittariusI 3"). From the above table,it will be seenthe Janma Nakshatrawill be Moola 4th pada. The lord of Moola is Ketu. So the Dasa of Ketu will be operatingat the time of birth. But this is not enough. We haveto find out the balanceof Ketu Dasa at the time of birth. For this we will have to take assistance from the following table taken frOm Lahari's Ephemeris.

We seefrom the abovetable 13" of Sagittariusthe balance .of Ketu Dasa is 2 monthsand 3 days at the time of birth of the uative. Ali lengthyarithmeticalcalculationscan be avoidedby 'taking assistance from thesetables. As has beendescribedin sufficientdetail, in the Vimsottari Dasa system, the various lplanets have been allotted specific irumber cf years the total of which comesto 120 years which has bbenconsideredin Kaliyugaas the normal natural period of litb by our sages. In other Dasa systemsalso variouJ periods have been allotted to the different planets. From a scientific point of view, we cannot say with any sort of definiteness,ulx)n rvhat basis such allotment of periodshavebeenmade;but in actual practice the Dasa system, particularly the Vimsottari :systemyieldssatisfactoryresults.

From 4 nakshatras from Aridra commences the Dasa of the sun, from 3 nakshatras after that beginsthe Dasa of the Moon;4 naksrratrasafter that will bring the Dasa of Mars; 3 nakshatrasafter that the lord of Dasa will be Mercury;4 nakshatrastherefrom will havesaturr as the Dasa Lord; 3 nakshatrasthereafterthe Dasa Lord wirl -be Jupiter; Rahu will be the lord of Dasa4 nakshatras after that and then sukra will take over the lordsliip of the Dasa 3 nakshatrasfrom the last one mentionedabovc. The rord of the Dasa at birth will be determinedby countingin this orderup to the Janmanakshatra. The durationof AstottariDasa for the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Saturn, Jupiter,Rahu and Venusare 6, 15, g, 17,10, 19, 12 and21, in that order. Thusi;r this,Dasa system only 8 planets play the role of Dasalords,Kedr having beerr deniedthis privilege.

The Dasasof the variousplanetshave been specified above. In the case of malefic planetsrhe Dasa spanol' one nakshatrais:nth of the Dasaof the planet. It is l/3rd irr the caseof benefics. Thus the expiredportion of the Dasa is calculatedaccordingthe methodfollowedlbr Vimsottari Dast by multiplying the Bhayat (rf+rn-the expiredperiod of the stay of the Moon in the JanmaNakshatra)by the Dasa portion of the Janma Nakshatra rnd dividing it by Bhabhog(the total period of the stay of the Moon in the Janma Nakshatra). The balanceof Dasa at birth can alsobe ascertained then. SpecialNote': If uttarashadabe the Janrna Nakshatra the duration of its first threepadasis taken as Bhabhog,and the Dasa calculationsshould be done accor.clinglythe Dasa calculations for Abhijit Nakshatra are doneby taking the 4th pada af uttarashadaplus the l5th part of the beginningof Srar:an, For Sravanthe Bhabhog would be the total of jts. duration in ghalikasminusthe aforesaidl/I5th part.

Example: The Bhabhog of uttarashada is 64/16 (64 ghatikas 16 palas) and the.Bhayat is24l20(24ghatikasand 20 palas). This indicatesthat the birth was.inthe ind pada of uttarashada. Therefore by deducting l6i4 i.e. 1i4 of the Bhabhogof uttarashadawe getthe actual Bhabhog as 4gii2 and the Bhayatas 24120. Uttarashadais the seconJnakshatra of Saturn. Its Dasaspan is'30 months as l0 years or I20 monthsare the total Dasaspan of Sturn. By multiplying these 30 monthsby 24120,that is 1460palas,we get 43g00. Dividing itby 48112(afterconvertingit into palas), we get thg expired period of the Dasa as 15 months,2l days and24 ghatikas. The balanceof Dasa at birth will then be arrived at by deducting the aboveperiod from 30 months. This will be 14 months,25 days,38 ghatikasand 36 palas. To this be added the periods of Abhijit and Sravanviz. 30*30:60 months. The total will then be 74 months,25 days,38ghatikasand 36 palas, that is, 6 years, 2 months, 25 days, 38 r'hrlilqssand36palas. Thus would be the total balanceof tl"', ^:nsaof Saturn at the time of birth.
