"अष्टोत्तरी द्विधा प्रोक्ता शिवाद्या
कृतिकादितः॥२३॥"
- (बृहत्पाराशरहोराशास्त्रम्)
“Ashtottri
Dwividha Proktaa Shivaadyaa Kritikaadita !!23!!”
-(From Brhatpaarasharhorashaastram)
अष्टोत्तरी (Ashtottri) = The Ashtorri Dasha
द्विधा (Dwividha) = Two Types
प्रोक्ता (Proktaa) = Said
शिवाद्या (Shivaadyaa): Starting from Shiva but here Ardra Nakshatra ruled by
Shiva
कृतिकादितः (Kritikaadita ) = Starting from Kritika Nakshatra
Simple Meaning: The two types of Ashtottri Dasha are said
to be calculated (1) starting from Ardra Nakshatra and (2) Kritika Nakshatra
respectively
This is the uniqueness of Ashtottri
Dasha which makes it differ from other Nakshatra Grahdasha. No other Nakshatra
Grahdasha is said to be calculated in this way.
Note: If someone is born in Ardra Nakshatra his
Ashtottri Dash at his birth commences from Sun from one way and if one has his
Nakshatra Kritika his Ashtottri Dasha at birth commences from Sun according to
second way.
Note: This Ashtottri Dasha of both types can be
applied to cross verify the event and thus very much helpful in predictions and
astrologically rectifying one’s time of birth.
Note: Astrologers should use this Dasha with
serious approaches. As far as my experience of more than thirty years in the
field of Vedic Jyotish concerns the Ardradi Ashtottri Dasha yields somewhat better
results as compared to Kritikaadi Dasha.
