ON VIMSOTTARI DASA

Dasa Sesham1

Calculation of longevity should be done as per traditional tools. Separate Vimsottari dasas can becalculated from the fifth, fourth and eighth constellation from Janma Nakshatra

2. These are called

Utpanna dasa (5th Star), Kshema dasa (4th Star) and Adhana dasa (8th Star). Compare the endingdates of dasas under this to that of Janma Vimsottari (as determined in previous chapter). If the endingdates are close, then it can spell the end of life.

IllustrationDetermine the Utpanna, Kshema and Adhana dasa of Male born on 7 August 1963 at 9:15 PM IST

at 21N28 84E01(Chart 2).

In Chart 2, the Janma Nakshatra is Satabhisaj (24) and the Kshema star (4th) is Revati (27) ruledby Mercury; the Utpanna star (5th) is Aswini (1) ruled by Ketu and the Adhana star (8th) is Rohini (4)ruled by Moon. The Nakshatra balance is 0.001157 and the balance of Dasa can be easily calculatedfrom this.

Kshema dasa balanceFull period of Mercury dasa = 17 years.

Balance of Mercury dasa = 17 X 0.001157 = 0.019669 Years

= 0 Year 0 Month 7 Days

Thus, Ending date (Mercury) = 1963-08-07 (Birth Date YYYY-MM-DD)(+) 0-00-07 (Add)

= 1963-08-14(YYYY-MM-DD) or1963 Aug 14

Utpanna Dasa BalanceFull period of Ketu dasa = 7 years.

Balance of Mercury dasa = 7 X 0.001157 = 0.008099 Years

= 0 Year 0 Month 3 Days

Thus, Ending date (Ketu) = 1963-08-07 (Birth Date YYYY-MM-DD)(+) 0-00-03 (Add)

= 1963-08-10(YYYY-MM-DD) or1963 Aug 10

Adhana Dasa BalanceFull period of Moon dasa = 10 years.

Balance of Moon dasa = 10 X 0.001157 = 0.01157 Years

= 0 Year 0 Month 4 DaysThus, Ending date (Moon) = 1963-08-07 (Birth Date YYYY-MM-DD)

Notes: The Utpanna, Kshema and Adhana Dasa are always calculated on the basis of thelongitude of the Moon, even if the Lagna is stronger than the Moon as in this case.

Comparing dasa The four Dasa (i.e. Janma, Kshema, Utpanna & Adhana) are compared carefullyto determine similarity in the ending dates of dasa. If the ending dates are the same in at least two of thedasa, then ill-health, accidents, premature death and other evils can be anticipated.

1. Comparing Table 2-1 & Table 2-2, we find that the fifth dasa in both end in 2006 AD showing danger.Now compare the dasa length in both. The fifth dasa in Table 2-1 is of the Moon for 10 years while

that in table 2-2 is of Mars for 7 years. Take the shorter period and we can narrow down the dangerperiod from 1999 to 2006.

2. Comparing Table 2-1 & Table 2-3, we find that the first dasa in both end in 1970 AD showing danger.Now compare the dasa length in both. The first dasa in Table 2-1 is of the Ketu for 7 years while thatin Table 2-3 is of Mars for 7 years. Take the shorter period and we can narrow down the dangerperiod from 1963 to 1970. During this period the native had many close encounters when as a babyhe fell into a dam and was rescued by the timely intervention of his grandmother who dived in afterhim. Later in February 1969 he was badly mauled by a dog and had to undergo treatment for a fewmonths. These incidents are represented by the planets having the Kshema Dasa [Ketu in aconstellation of Venus clearly indicates danger from dogs, and specifically feminine-bitch) andAdhana dasa (Mars in a constellation of Moon shows the danger of accidents (Mars) in water (Moon)and the person who saves is seen from the house where 7th house occupied by Mars is the fourth

(Mother/Aunt) from the fourth house (Mother) indicating grandmother].3. Comparing Table 2-2 & Table 2-3, we find that the seventh dasa in both end in 2040 AD indicating

danger or premature death. Now compare the dasa length in both. The seventh dasa in Table 2-2 isof the Jupiter for 16 years while that in Table 2-3 is of Mercury for 17 years. Take the shorter periodand we can narrow down the danger period from 2024 to 2040. In this manner the dangerousperiods should be determined and after calculating the longevity, the death inflicting dasa can bedetermined.

DEATH INFLICTINGDASA

1) The Dasa Sesham can cause death as all dasa tend to be evil towards their end. If the Sesham

coincides for Utpanna, Adhana, Kshema or Janma Vimsottari dasa, then it can cause death.2) The Janma dasa (First Vimsottari dasa) can cause death for Balarishtha

3Jataka. The Vipat dasa

(Third Vimsottari dasa) can cause death for Yogarishtha4 and Alpa Ayus5 Jataka6. The Pratya dasa(Fifth Vimsottari dasa) can cause death for Madhya Ayus

7Jataka. The Vadha dasa (Seventh

Vimsottari dasa) can cause death for Poorna Ayus8

Jataka.3) The dasa of the lord of the sixth house can bring wailing at home, especially in the antardasa of the

lord of the eighth house when the death of the native himself can occur9

. Similarly, dasa of Lord ofeighth and antardasa of lord of the sixth can give death.

4) The stronger of the Lords of the 2nd or 8th house is called Rudra and its dasa or association cancause death of the native

10. Similarly, the Rudra for parents are determined from the Sun or Venus

(for Father) and Moon or Mars (for Mother) .5) The dasa of a planet in Rasi-Sandhi (especially Gandanta) can bring sorrow and disease or even

death. If it is in the last degree of the sign, then its dasa can produce death11 .

3Balarishtha refers to infantile death (0 to 12 years). If this is destined, then the Janma dasa itself can cause death.

4Yogarishtha refers to teenage death around 12 to 20 years age. If this is destined, then the Vipat or third dasa can cause

death.5

Alpa Ayus indicates premature death within 36 years. If a few other life determining factors are strong, then this can be within40 years.6

Madhya Ayus refers to middle life where the longevity is from 36 to 72 years. Another classification is 40 to 80 years.8

Poorna Ayus or full life refers to the longevity in the range of 72 to 108 years. Another classification is 80 to 120 years. Formore details refer to my translation of Jaiminis Upadesa Sutra.9

6) Niryana Dasa12

:For day birth, add the longitudes of the Sun and Saturn whereas for night birth addthe longitudes of Rahu and Moon. The point arrived at by the sum of the longitudes will be in someconstellation. The dasa of the lord of this constellation and antardasa indicated by the degree of thelongitude sum can also determine death.

7) Gulika Dasa: The dasa/antardasa of the planets indicated by the longitude of Gulika in aconstellation or that of planets associated with it can be death inflicting and harmful. The body candevelop or be afflicted by poisonous substances.

ILLUSTRATIONNobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore was born on the 7th May 1861 at 2:51 AM LMT at 22N40 Lat &88E30 Long on Krishna Paksha Trayodasi (ruled by Jupiter) in the Vedic month of Chaitra.

Rabindranath Tagore was a great worshipper of Vishnu and perhaps, the greatest poets of histime. The Lagna has the Moon in it, and any computation will clearly bring out the importance of theMoon in initiating the Vimsottari Dasa. The Vimsottari dasa starting dates (from Moon)are as under:Merc 1856-06-02 ; Ketu 1873-06-02 ; Venus 1880-06-02 ; Sun 1900-06-03 ; Moon 1906-06-03 ;Mars 1916-06-03 ; Rahu 1923-06-03 ; Jup 1941-06-03

It would be very difficult to explain the death of Rabindranath Tagore in Jupiter Dasa Jupiter

antardasa, especially when Jupiter is the lord of Lagna and is also exalted in the ninth from ArudhaLagna. However Gulika is in Visakha Nakshatra ruled by Jupiter and hence Jupiter shall give the resultsof Gulika in its initial period. This resulted in death.

4. The dasa of the planets associated with the second and seventh house can also be death inflicting.5. Divisional Charts: The death of the native can be studied form the Rasi and Trimsamsa whereas

that of other relatives are to be seen from the other divisional charts. Parasara explains these asDrekkana (D-3) for co-born, Saptamsa (D-7) for children, Navamsa (D-9) for spouse, Dasamsa (D-10) for those related in the profession, Dwadasamsa (D-12) for Parents and elders, Vimsamsa (D-20) for Gurus and Sisya (Upasana), Chaturvimsamsa (D-24) for teachers and students (Siddhi) andso on.

ASSIGNMENTQ1: Draw the Utpanna, Kshema and Adhana Dasa in your own chart and indicate the evil periods.

Q2: What is the reason for calculating these three types of Vimsottari Dasa based on the longitude of theMoon instead of Lagna?

Q3: Determine the period of death of at least two persons related to you (in any manner) using divisionalcharts.Q4: Why are planets associated with the 2

nd/7

thhouses death inflictors? Show at least one case where

this has proved to be correct. What remedy does Parasara prescribe for this position or ownership ofplanets?

12This is different from the Niryana Shoola Dasa and should not be mistaken. Niryana dasa has been defined as the death

inflicting period of the Vimsottari dasa (or other Udu dasa) by the following Sloka in Jataka Parijata (JP 18-36): M D D W D R_ L F D RG N
