“Aatm Manthana” – an article written by Vishal Aksh

(1) In this small article I am sharing my researches on Aatm Manthana though there may be several other combinations resulting in Aatm Manthana as described in forthcoming paragraphs

(2) In Vedic era Samudra Mnathana took place to get Amrita and the two most important pillars of that Samudra Manthana were Shiva who protected the creation by drinking Halala which came out as a side effect of that Samudra Manthana and Vishnu who in his Kurma Avataara acted as a base for Mandrachal Parvata. 

(3) In Planetary terms Sun represents Parmatma Shiva and Saturn represents the Kurma Avataara. In case of Aatma Manthana too these two Planets are significant. Shiva the Mritunjai (Sun) and Vishnu the protractor of life (Saturn signifies Ayu). Saturn also signifies Vrikati from worldly affaires and Aasakti towards Parmatma Shiva represented by Sun through unusual approaches like challenges, researching, performing Yoga etc.

(4) Check your Vedic Horoscope in that if you find Saturn’s aspect over Sun then it is an indication that you have an inbuilt mechanism of Aatm Manthana but it is operative or not there is no guarantee.

(4.1) If you find in your Panchmansh Chart (Cyclic D5) Sun under the aspect of Saturn then the mechanism of Aatm Mantha will work even if it does not exist in your Rashi Chart.

(4.2) If you find in your Vinshansh Chart Sun under the aspect of Saturn the mechanism of Aatm Munthans works without fail even if it does not exist in your Rashi Chart or Panchmansh Chart.

(4.3) If you find in your Bhansh Chart (also known as Saptvinshansh Chart or Nakshatransh Chart and symbolized as D27) Sun under the aspect of Saturn you have wonderful mechanism of Aatm Manthan even if it does not exist in your Rashi Chart, Panchmansh Chart and Vinshansh Chart. You came in this world to activate the Mechanism of Aatma Manthana for others too.

(4.4) If either between Sun and Saturn becomes your Chara Aatmakarka you have the superior Mechanism of Aatm Manthan. If not any Planet holding the rank of Chara Aatmakarka should conjoined either one of them.

(4.5) As per my experience &researches of more than 28 years in the field of Vedic Jyotish there is no doubt in saying that the aspects as per Vedic Jyotish work in Divisional Charts too and this is very important to understand.

(4.6) The aspect of Saturn over Sun in foregoing paragraph are Vedic aspect. Saturn has 3rd and 10th aspect in addition to 7th aspect. In almost all the literatures of predictive Vedic Jyotish aspects are considered as sign to sign not degree wise so the aspect should be considered in Divisional Charts too. The aspects considering the degrees are used to calculate Shadabala and Bhava Bala.

(5) A human body consists of 75% of water so the concept of Samudra Manthana also applies to it and the Samudra Mantha at individual level turns to Aatm Manthana.

“More About Yamakantaka” – an article written by Vishal Aksh

(1) Yamkantaka is a Upagraha or Sub Planet like Gulika & Maandi and is used in Vedic Jyotish for predictive purposes.

(2) The Longitude of Yamakantaka is obtained through calculations. In Vedic Jyotish Yamakantaka is described as the son of Bristpati (Jupiter) and thus considered to be very much auspicious in giving its results. If it is associated with any Planet by conjunction it increases the auspicious results of that Planet by many times. It gives sudden and unexpected benefic events

(3) Here I am giving several results of Yamakantaka as found by me in my experience of more than 26 years in the field of Vedic Jyotish and they are given below:

(3.1) If Yamakantaka influences Sun in one’s natal chart then there is sudden favor from Government and its authorities

(3.2) If Yamakantaka influences Moon then it gives one broad outlook and it also motivates the Mana (Mind?) even though Moon is highly afflicted in one’s horoscope. There may be several such episodes where a depressed person motivating other depressed person to come out of that phase of depression. It also gives several events where one finds chance to display the greatness of his heart.

(3.3) When Mars is found to be under the influence of Yamakantaka then it always gives right direction to the energy displayed by Mars. There may be sudden and unexpected atmosphere created by Yamakantaka where one finds his role to display his energy in a very descent form.

(3.4) When Mercury is found under the influence of Yamakantaka then this Yamaknataka gives one a penetrative intelligence and wonderful capabilities to memories. Even though one does not have good capabilities to memorize because of the afflicted position of Mercury but the person remembers what he has forgot due to his afflicted Mercury at right time when his afflicted Mercury is under the influence of Yamakantaka.

(3.5) People having Budh – Aaditya Yoga in their horoscopes get superior wisdom if this yoga is found under the influence of Yamakantaka.

(3.6) If in one’s horoscope Ketu is forming the combination of Astrologer and here if Ketu gets the influence of Yamakantaka then he becomes the astrologer with great predictive abilities.

(3.7) During years 1998 to 2000, I saw in the horoscopes of various person that when Neptune is in conjunction with the auspicious results giving Mahadasha lord then this Neptune enhanced the auspicious results given by Mahadasha lord further but then I noticed that this Upgraha or Sub Planet Yamkantaka proved more effective in enhancing the auspiciousness of the Mahadasha lord by its conjunction.

"A Short Note On Drishti (Aspect) - an article written by Vishal Aksh

(1) If you apply your common sense you will find that there are two types of Dristi (Aspects) any human can have:

(i) Bhyaay Dristi: It is External aspect used to visualize physical objects in this world and even in this universe. You see tree, animal, Stars and yourself in a reflecting surface like Mirror etc. If you have good external sight you can visualize smaller things also. The Vedic Jyotish is based on common sense and Vedic Literature and this External Aspect is taken into consideration in (1) Rashi Chart, (2) Chalit Chakra and (3) Mathematical Aspects (as per Drishti Bala in Shadbala) and this is useful to calculate apparent results assuming no external force will oppose the calculated results to manifest.

(ii) Antar Dristi: It is Internal Aspect and nobody can deny this aspect. It is the most powerful Aspect. In Mahabharata it is written that Sanjay had this kind of Sight and he was able to see the entire battle of Mahabharta and he well explained it before the King Dhritrashtra. Every human has this Antar Drishti or Internal Aspect. As an exercise just close your eyes and concentrate in the middle of your eyebrows and if you have good Internal sight then soon you see a circle of light. This indicates your internal light or spiritual light. The Divisional Charts are based on the Vedic Law which states, "Yeta Pinde Tata Brhmande" which means a smaller object even like Anu(an atom) is similar to a Brahmanda (Universe)

According to that Vedic dictum every living being has a complete Brahmand in it. Similarly Every Rashi (Zodiacal Sign) has a complete universe represented by the group of other Rashi (Zodiacal Sign) in itself and it is the basis of the concept of Divisional Charts and if there is Drisgti (Aspect) concept working in Rashi Chart, Chalit Chakra or Mathematical Aspects as Externally then it must work as Internal Aspect in Divisional Charts.

People with rich Internal Sight become rich in spirituality and anyone of such person is able to see Parmatma (God) in the similar way the Divisional Aspect gives clear indication about all the hidden aspect. Astrologers very rich in spirituality can understand it properly.

(2) Vedic Jyotish is not like a modern science. Vedic Jyotish is an applied form of spirituality which relates spirituality with materialism.

(i) Astrologer intending to get true knowledge must read Ancient texts on Vedic Jyotish by ignoring translations and commentaries and he should read in Sanskrit only.

(ii) About 90% of translations of Sanskrit Texts on Vedic Jyotish have errors in their translations or suffered on account of the views of translator or Astrologer.

(3) Always remember Jyotish is a practical subject which advocates predictions and if anyone appreciates it in theoretical form then be sure either he is misguiding you or he himself is misguided.

Mutual Aspect Between Exalted Saturn and Exalted Sun

Many times several person put a question before me that what does happen when in any horoscope there is mutual aspect between exalted Saturn & exalted Sun? It is taken as very negative generally. This appears to be simple question but difficult to answer.

It is supposed that if any planet is found exalted in any horoscope than that planet possesses its full qualities which it signifies and when it is 180deg. From Sun than it becomes retrograde and also forms aspectual relationship with Sun. When Sun is found exalted it generally means exalted aatma with Satwik guna and when Saturn is exalted than it means grapple between justice and injustice within the predominance of Tamas guna.

At this very position Sun throws its divine light over Saturn and the clashes between justice and injustice gets a turn here with the divine light of Sun justice gets strength and starts dominating over injustice and in the exalted sign of Saturn and by the grace of parmatma Shiva the Justice wins and implements the famous mantra of upnishad “Satyamev Jayetae” or “Ultimately The Truth Wins”

In Ramayana it is written that Sri Ram, Bharat, Lakshman & Shatrughan in their horoscopes had this combination of the mutual aspect between exalted Sun & exalted Saturn. With the effect of this combination the clashes between satya & asatya started and finally Sri Rama had been exiled along with Sita and Laksmana and on the other hand Bhrat along with Shatrughan started leading the life of sage and on simhasana the khadaun (a kind of wooden sleepers) of the feet of sri Ram were put. Here one should note that feet also signified by Saturn. Here the dominance of exalted Saturn in the form of khadaun of Shri Rama took the significant position and the Sun in the form of King came under that and this was the first episode of this combination.

In second episode the then world conqueror Ravana came into play and the battle between justice and injustice started. The Justice signified by sri Ram fought against injustice signified by Ravana and the Sun signifying parmatma Shiva blessed sri Rama to defeat Ravana.

From Ramayana the results of the mutual aspect between exalted Saturn & exalted Sun can be understood.

In year 2003 I analyzed the horoscope of a person and in one of the divisional chart of the horoscope of that person I saw mutual aspect between Saturn & Sun and when I asked if he had any confrontation with higher authorities and he totally surprised and appreciated me for my analysis about his horoscope.

Even if only mutual aspect between Saturn & Sun is found in the horoscope of a person than this mutual aspect at professional level creates his differences with authorities especially this aspect exists in one’s dashmansh chart (D10).

The existence of this mutual aspect in siddhansh chart (D24) in any person’s horoscope makes his differences with school / college authorities.

If this mutual aspect exists in the bhansh chart (D27) in any person’s horoscope than that person have frequent clashes with his elders and seniors.

Regular recitation of Gayatri Mantra removes the negative effects of this mutual aspect.

“Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha” – An Article Written By Vishal Aksh

(1) Several years before in a Hindi Jyotish Book written by Dr. Naryan Datt Shrimali a new type of Dasha termed as Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha was seen by me. In that book Dr. Shrimali did not write the Jyotish text from where he got that Dasha System. It was very simple dasha system to apply and remember and this attracted me then to use that dasha system to those handmade horoscopes where only Rashi Charts were given without the prevailing Maha Dasha & Antar Dasha.

(1.1) Dr. Shrimali did not claim that Dasha system as his own creation and the very interesting thing is that till this date I did not find the actual Jyotish Text source where that system of Dasha was given first.

(1.2) {1}According to Dr. Narayan Datt Shrimali in any horoscope this Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha starts from the Planet occupying Lagna and if Lagna is vacant then this Dasha will starts from the Planet in second house and so on, 

{2} If in a sign there are two or more Planets then the Dasha of Planets with higher degree will come first and it will be followed by the Dasha of Planet with lesser degree to that Planet and so on, 

{3} The number of years to be allotted to Planets will be the numbers given to various signs such as Mesh = 1 year, Vrish = 2 years, Mithuna = 3 years………. Makar = 10 years, Kumbh = 11 years and Meen = 12 years.

(1.3) This Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha system includes the Dasha period of nine planets (includes Rahu & Ketu also)

(2) I thought then the maximum number of Planet that any Rashi or Sign can have is 8 and in that case one of the node (Rahu or Ketu) would be definitely be in 7th sign from the Rashi containing 8 Planets. For example let us assume a horoscope with 8th Planet in Mesh (Sidereal Aries) and it means if the 8th Planet is Rahu then Ketu must occupy 7th sign from Mesh Rashi i.e. in Tula Rahi. That means the total number of Dasha years of 8th Planet = {8 × 1 (No. allotted to Mesh Rashi) + 7 (Number allotted to Tula Rashi)} = 8 + 7 = 15 years. So that Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha gives a minimum of 15 years of Dasha of nine Planets.

(2.1) Now let us assume the 8 Planet from Sun to Rahu in any horoscope occupy Meen Rashi and that mean Kety would be in Kanya Rashi in the 7th sign from Meen Rashi. 

So the number of Years in this dasha under such condition should be = {8 × 12 (Number allotted to Meen Rashi) + 6 (Number allotted to Kanya Rashi)} = 96 + 6 = 102 years. So this Dasha System gives a maximum of 102 years.

(2.2) This dasha system was found to give total number of Dasha Years within 15 years to 102 years. Dears students while applying this Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha system to any horoscope if you find the total number of Dasha years coming out is less than 15 years or greater than 102 years then recalculate as while calculating the dasha periods somewhere you performed wrong calculations.

(2.3) This is a useful and simple dasha system and research minded astrologer will develop it according to their requirements. I do not think this Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha system is available in any software.

(2.4) This Grahanusaar Bhaavdasha system becomes useful to me when I predict on the basis of Pragman or Vedic Progressions as developed by me.

(1) The Sanskrit Shloka written in forthcoming paragraph (2) is the fifth Shloka of Fifth Chapter: Ristaaristbhanga of first part of Brihit Parashara Horashaastra and same Shloka appears as Forth Shloka in the Fifth Chapter Aristaadhyaay of Horaratanam (Part 1) written by Balbhadra with slight different wordings not affecting the meaning of this Shloka.

(2) पापेक्षितो युतो भौमो लग्नगो न शुभेक्षितो।

मृत्युदस्त्वष्टमस्थो सौरेणार्केण वा पुनः॥५॥

(Paapekshito Yuto Bhaumo Lagngo Na Shubhekshito।

(2.1) The aforesaid Sanskrit Shloka means that if Mars occupies rising sign in conjunction with natural malefic planets and receiving the aspects of natural malefic planets and without any aspect of natural benefic Planets or if Mars occupies eighth house the native born with this Aristha Yoga dies quickly after his birth and this combination also holds if Mars is replaced by either Saturn or Sun.

(3) In forthcoming paragraphs (3.1), (3.2), (3.3), (3.4), (3.5), (3.6) & (3.7) I am sharing my researches pertaining to this Aristha Yoga for the benefits of learners, researchers and experts of Vedic Jyotish:

(3.1) The aforesaid Aristha Yoga should be judged in Chalit Chakra, Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(3.2) This Aristha Yoga should also be judged with reference to Lagnaroodhpadalagna or Ashtamaaroodhpadalagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(3.3) This Aristha Yoga should also be judged with reference to the signs occupied by Chara Aatmakarka Planet in Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60). In other words, this Aristha Yoga should be judged in the Swansha Kundli of these charts.

(3.4) This Aristha Yoga should be judged in Rashi Chart with reference to Karkansh obtained from the signs occupied Chara Aatmakarka in Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60). In other words, this Aristha Yoga should be judged in the Karkansh Kundlis so formed by taking the signs occupied by Chara Aatmakaraka in these divisional charts as Karkansh.

(3.5) This Aristha Yoga should be judged with reference of Jeevit Saham and taking this Jeevit Saham as a special Lagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(3.6) This Aristha Yoga should be judged with reference of Mritu Saham and taking this Mritu Saham as a special Lagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

“Baalarishtha Yoga…. Part -2” – an article written by Vishal Aksh

[This article written by me was published in my Facebook Public Group on Sunday, July 2, 2017. Follow link: https://www.facebook.com/groups/258744764307717/permalink/762652047250317/ to view this there]

Chapter: 01

(1) Baalarishtha Yoga existing in the horoscope of a newly born baby should be judged very precisely and if found in his horoscope then it is the duty of an expert astrologer to recommend suitable remedial measures to be performed by the parents of that newly born baby.

(2) In case when the Baalarishtha becomes too effective within the few hours of the birth of newly born baby then what will be the use of recommending remedial measures? In my opinion the couple going to plan for their baby must consult an competent astrologer for the judgment of their horoscopes and then an astrologer with Karmic & spiritual approach should judge both horoscopes in terms of Fifth houses, Saptansh Charts, Navansh Charts and Prashan Kundlis (Horary Horoscopes) and if astrologer finds any affliction in anyone or both the charts then he should recommend remedies to be performed by the couple planning for baby and this is the safest way to protect a newly born baby from the evil curse of Baalarishtha but mind it is a very complicated and tough job for an astrologer to do so because every time he remains under the compulsion of that couple to judge more events other than the main purpose for which he has been consulted so it is then becomes duty of an astrologer to say no to the judgment of any more new events and in this way he will do justice to his works.

(3) Unknowingly most of the astrologer started fixing the time of congress for the couple planning for baby and this may be dangerous and can even bring unseen Aristhas for their baby. No astrologer can take the place of Parmatma and every astrologer should keep this in mind.

(4) Garbhadhaan Muruthas are given in standard texts on Vedic Jyotish and an astrologer with Karmic and Spiritual approach should recommend them in the light of his experience with remedial measures but the very first thing that that astrologer should have an authority to judge his horoscope correctly for his future events. This is very important for every astrologer to understand.

Chapter: 02

(5) In this article I would like to discuss typical Baalarishtha. There is a Shloka in Maansaagari the famous text on Vedic Jyotish which is given below:

(5.1) शशांकस्तु विशेषेण जन्मकाले च मृत्युदः।

कृष्णपक्षे दिवाजातःशुक्लपक्षे यदा निशि।

तदा षष्ठाष्टमश्चन्द्रो मातृवत परिपालकः॥

(Shashankstu Visheshene Janamkale Ch Mritudah।

Krishanapakshe Devejaath Shukelpakshe Yada Nishi।

Tada Shashthasthamshchandro Matrevat Paripaalkh॥)

(5.2) The aforesaid Shloka means that Moon has a specialty it gives death if it occupies 8^th house but under this situation if birth occurs in dark half in day time or in the night of bright half the Moon saves him like his mother.

(5.3) This is clear from aforesaid Shloka that the Moon in 6^th or 8^th house forms Aristha for the babies born in the night of Krishana Paksha or Andheri or Dark fortnight or in the daytime of Shukla Paksha or Ujaali or Bright fortnight but for the babies born in the Daytime of Krishana Paksha or Night time of Shukla Paksha with Moon occupying 6^th or 8^th house will not suffer on account of this Baalarishtha formed by Moon.

(6) In Sanket Nidhi the legendry work of Rama Dayalu the Sanskrit Shloka as described earlier under (5.1) is given in a very effective form as Shloka Forth in SANKET third which is written in forthcoming paragraph (6.1)

(6.1) सक्रूरोऽबजो व्ययमृतिमदागेष्वकेन्द्रस्थसौम्यैनों दृष्टोऽसौ शिशुमृतिकरोऽथाष्टमारिस्थितोऽबजः।

दृष्टः क्रूरैरहनि जननं यस्य कृष्णे च पक्षे शुक्ले सदि्र्निशि जनिरवत्यत्र तं नान्यथोह्यम्॥४॥

(6.2) The meaning of the Sanskrit Shloka written under (6.1) is as written in forthcoming paragraph (6.3)

(6.3) If Moon in conjunction with a natural malefic Planet occupies 12^th, 8^th, 7^th or 1^st house without the aspects of natural benefic planets occupying Kendras falling on it results in sudden death of newly born baby. When Moon occupies 8^th house or 6^th house and Moon under the aspects of natural malefic Planets when birth occurs in daytime in Krishana Paksha (Dark Half) or when under such condition the birth occurs at night time in Shukla Paksha (Bright Half) with Moon under the aspects of natural benefic Planets protects newly born baby.

(7) It is clear from (5.3) & (6.3) that when Moon occupies 8^th or 6^th house result in the removal of Baalarishtha so formed provided birth occurs during daytime in Dark fortnight even if Moon stands under the aspects of natural malefic Planets or in night time of Bright fortnight when Moon receives the aspects of natural benefic planets occupies 8^th or 6^th house.

(8) Alternately what has been written under (7) about the position of Moon can be said if births occur during the daytime in Dark fortnights with Moon under the aspects of natural benefic Planets occupies 8^th house or 6^th house and if births or if births occur during nights of Bright Fortnights with Moon under the aspects of natural malefic Planets occupies 8^th or 6^th house results in Baalarishtha of worst order.

(9) The 8^th or 6^th house occupied by Moon as described in foregoing paragraphs should be considered from various Lagnas according to my researches in the field of Vedic Jyotish and once again in this article too I am sharing my researches in this context in forthcoming paragraphs (10), (10.1), (10.2), (10.3), (10.4), (10.5) & (10.6) for the benefits of learners, researchers and experts of Vedic Jyotish:

(10) The aforesaid Aristha Yoga should be judged in Chalit Chakra, Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(10.1) This Aristha Yoga should also be judged with reference to Lagnaroodhpadalagna or Ashtamaaroodhpadalagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(10.2) This Aristha Yoga should also be judged with reference to the signs occupied by Chara Aatmakarka Planet in Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60). In other words, this Aristha Yoga should be judged in the Swansha Kundli of these charts.

(10.3) This Aristha Yoga should be judged in Rashi Chart with reference to Karkansh obtained from the signs occupied Chara Aatmakarka in Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60). In other words, this Aristha Yoga should be judged in the Karkansh Kundlis so formed by taking the signs occupied by Chara Aatmakaraka in these divisional charts as Karkansh.

(10.4) This Aristha Yoga should be judged with reference of Jeevit Saham and taking this Jeevit Saham as a special Lagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(10.5) This Aristha Yoga should be judged with reference of Mritu Saham and taking this Mritu Saham as a special Lagna in Rashi Chart, Shasthansh Chart (D6), Asthmansh Chart (D8), Trishansh Chart (both traditional and cyclic, D30) and Shysthansh Chart (D60).

(10.6) Gulika and Maandi should be considered as natural malefic planets in judging this Baalaarishtha Yoga as described in this article.

“Ayu (Longevity) As Per Vedic Jyotish” – an article written by Vishal Aksh

In general, Ayu is the duration by which a physical body relating to Animal Kingdom, Plant Kingdom, Fungal Kingdom or Monera Kingdom remains in this Mrituloka (Mortal world). Rishi Parashar in his Brihit Parashar Horashaastra appears to indicate two types of Ayu (1) Ayu as per Vedas (2) Ayu as per Dasha and these are further classified into (1) Alp (Short), (2) Madhyam (Medium) & (3) Deergha (Long) but there are several terms like Apermit Ayu (Age equal to earth’s age or age of Kalpa and even more) is also found in several ancient texts on Vedic Jyotish.

(1) Ayu As Per Veda: In Vedas the request is made to Parmatma (God) to give 100 years of healthy life for human beings in a mantra “Jeevem Shradhaa Shatam” and this kind of Ayu is accepted by great rishi Parashar and he trisected it mathematically to divide it in three parts since the 3rd part of 100 comes in fraction 33.33333333 not in whole number so to make this kind of Ayu in whole number rish Parashar took 100 years as 96 + 4 = 100 years in which he trisected 96 years as = 96 ÷ 3 = 32 years and made a arithmetic series of three terms with 32 as first term and 32 as a common difference to represent this kind of Ayu as Swalpa or Alpa (Short), Madhyam (Madhyam) and Deergha (long) and this AP series with three terms becomes: 32, 32 + 1 × (32), 32 + 2 × (32) = 32, 64, 96. From birth to 32 years, from 32 years to 64 years and from 64 years to 96 years are termed as Swalpaayu (Short life), Madhyaayu (Medium life) & Deerghaayu (Long life) and in this kind of Ayu rishi Parashar attributes 96 to 100 years as Uttamayu (Excellent life).

(1.1) In my opinion Kaal Chakra Dasha should be apply to estimate the critical period or if any in the three sections if the malefic Kaal Chakra Dasha is found to progress an astrologer judging the horoscope his client should start judging his client’s horoscope minutely in terms of Ayur Bhava or House of Longevity.

(1.2) In Brihit Parashara Hora Shaastra rishi Parashar did not mention this kind of Ayu as Dasha based as he did not give any Dasha of 96 years.

(1.3) Rishi Parashar disregards the calculation of age of a native below 24 years as per him up to 24 years of age native remains under the influence of the actions of his father, his mother and the Baalaristhas* present in his horoscope. Japa (Recitation of Mantra), Homa (Yagya) and Chikitsa (Medical supervisions) should be performed in the favour of that native up to 24 years by his parents or family members as remedies.

(1.4) In my opinion up to 24 years of age every native should recite gayatri mantra as remedial measures.

(2) Ayu As Per Dasha: Rishi Parashar in his Brihit Parashara Hora Shaastra also gives 108 years of life with its section as from birth to 36 years as swaalpaayu (Short life), 36 to 72 years Madhyaayu (Medium life) and 72 to 108 years as Deerghaayu (Long life). Students should note that here the three sections are 36, 72, 108 or 36, 36 + 1 × (36), 36 + 2 × (36) or an arithmetic series of three terms with 36 as first term and 36 as common difference. This is as per Ashtottri Dasha and rishi Parashar recommends Ashtottri Dasha to judge marka (death inflicting) planet from his client’s horoscope.

(2.1) If any of the sections of life as per Ashtottri Dasha an adverse period of Ashtottridasha is found to run an astrologer judging the horoscope of his client should become very much careful.

(2.2) In my opinion Yogini dasha of 36 years should also be applied and if the malefic yogini also synchronizes with Ashtottri Dasha then astrologer must be very careful in judging his client’s horoscope and that astrologer should also be serious in prescribing remedies to his clients.

(2.3) Rishi Parashar gives 120 years of life with its section as from birth to 40 years as swaalpaayu (Short life), 40 to 80 years Madhyaayu (Medium life) and 80 to 120 years as Deerghaayu (Long life). It appears according to Vinshottri Dasha. Rishi Parashar recommends Vinshottri dasha in deciding the Marka (death inflecting) planet. This kind of Ayu follows 40, 80, 120 patterns or an arithmetic progression of three terms: 40, 40 + 1 × (40), 36 + 2 × (40) where 40 is first term and 40 is also common difference.

(2.4) Vinshottri dasha is the most popular dasha in Vedic Jyotish.

(3) Several great exponents of astrology of this Kaliyuga also give two kinds of Ayu as (1) Yogaayu which is based on the contribution of various Yogas dealing with age in one’s horoscope and it is further divided into 6 types (a)Sadyorishtha: this is one’s death within one year of his birth, (b) Aristha: this is one’s death within 12 years of his birth this is also known as Baalaristha, (c) Yogaristha: this is one’s death within 24 years of his birth and some modern great authors did not justify this term properly in their translations, the other three kinds such as (d) Alpaayu: from ones birth to 32 years, (e) Madhyaayu: it is one’s term of life within 32 to 70 years and (f) Deerghaayu: it is one’s life within 70 to 100 years. Those great authors of Kaliyuga also mention an age above 100 as Amitaayu.

(3.1) The Sadyorishtha, Aristha & Amitaayu are said to be independent of Dasha in the Vedic Texts of Jyotish written in Kaliyuga.

(3.2) Dr. BV Raman the greatest astrologer of modern era is of the view that Sadyorishtha & Aristha can also be brought within the purview of Dasha and we should regard his findings.

(4) In my opinion Ayur (Age) is a subject of 8th house indicating Mystery, illusions & Maya so it cannot be decided accurately by any means including Jyotish but every kind of Aristhas including Ayur Aristha can be predicted with great accuracy by the serious astrologers using Vedic Jyotish.
