` prm tTvay dÄaÇeyay gué_yae nm>, Introduction 1.1 Dasa: Time & State •
The word ‘Dasa’ has several meanings and is unique to the astrology of the Hindu’s. It is defined as the state, condition and circumstances of eistence of a !ody, !oth animate and inanimate, during "redefined "eriods of its life as fated !y the "osition of the "lanets, stars and other heavenly !odies in the #odiac at the time of its conce"tion or !irth.
•
It is a means to "erfect "rognostication and descri!es the fate of all created !eings !ased on the configuration of the "lanets in the s$y at the time of their conce"tion or creation.
1.2 Nomenclature •
The %a&or "eriods of any Dasa system are called Mahadasa or sim"ly Dasa.
•
su!'"eriods (2nd level of )yclic "eriods within a ma&or "eriod* are called Antara-dasa or +hu$ti.
•
su!'su!'"eriods (rd level of )yclic "eriods within 2nd level "eriod* are called Pratyantara-dasa.
•
su!'su!'su!'"eriods (-th level of )yclic "eriods within rd level "eriod* are called Sookshma-dasa.
•
su!'su!'su!'su!'"eriods (th level of )yclic "eriods within -th level "eriod* are called Prana-dasa.
` prm tTvay dÄaÇeyay gué_yae nm>, •
su!'su!'su!'su!'su!'"eriods (/th level of )yclic "eriods within th level "eriod* are called Deha-dasa.
1.3 Dasa Applicability •
0imsottari dasa is li$e the icing over the ca$e of 0edic strology. It is the single greatest gift of the %aharishi’s for the welfare of "eo"le in the Dar$ ge of ali es"ecially since the maimum longevity of man during this Dar$ ge is 123 years.
•
0imsottari means 123 which is the maimum duration of this scheme.
•
Irres"ective of s"ecial conditions, 0imsottari Dasa will always a""ly in a horosco"e.
1.4 Dasa Variations •
There are variations of 0imsottari Dasa !ased on the 4a$shatra which initiates the Dasa. They are5

•
=ne of the $eys to successful "rediction is correctly identifying the right variation of 0imsottari Dasa and a""lying it with sim"le rules of strology without !eating around the !ush> =ften we fail to "ic$ the
-
` prm tTvay dÄaÇeyay gué_yae nm>, correct dasa and struggle with inter"retation. It is here that gifted astrologers are !ailed out due to the strength of their intuition. •
Ta$e 7agna : %oon as reference "oints. mong these two entities find out who has more "lanets in endra’s (quadrants* to them. In ta$ing the counts, "lease eclude 7agna : %oon.
•
In cases of tie, li$e when !oth have equal counts, %oon casts its vote in its favor and wins. In such cases we ta$e the 0imsottari Dasa from %oon, else from 7agna.
` prm tTvay dÄaÇeyay gué_yae nm>, 2 Judgment of Results 2.1 Lordsip o! Si"ns & #ouses •
The lord of the 7agna is the single most im"ortant "lanet in a horosco"e, as it re"resents the native. The sign occu"ied !y lord of 7agna is called Paka Lagna and it re"resents the intellect (Dhi ?ha$ti* of the native. 6u"iter is the $ara$a of Intellect and hence ;a$a 7agna.
•
If the lord is ealted then matters of that house will flourish and if the lord is de!ilitated then matters of that house is destroyed.
•
"lanet in de!ility can ruin all others con&unct with it even if they are ealted. If it is con&unct @ahu, then great evil is "redicted during its dasaAanta.
However, if it attains neecha!hanga (cancellation of
de!ility*, then it shall give @a&ayoga during its "eriods and all "lanets con&oined shall wor$ in harmony with it. •
4eecha!hanga occurs due to the "lacement of either of the following in endra (only* to 7agna or %oon. I. 7ord of the ?ign of de!ility. II. 7ord of the signs o""osite the sign of de!ility i.e. the lord of
the sign of ealtation. III. ;lanet that is ealted in the sign of de!ility of another. I0. The de!ilitated "lanet is "laced in ealted 4avamsa.
•
If the 7ord of a house is "laced is the /th, 9th, 12th or o!struction (Baadhaka* sign, then the house suffers. ?imilarly, if the lord of these houses "laced in any !hava shall damage it due to such sources of evil. ?ource of sufferingAevil is due5

•
If the 7ord of any house is "laced in Kendra (quadrant* in strength and is well as"ected, the house owned shall flourish during its "eriod due to the native’s $arma. If in such a case, the "lacement is in the trikona (th : Cth* the houses flourish due to good fortune and !lessings.
•
If the 7ord of any house is "laced in the 9th from it, it suffers com"lete destruction even if the said lord is ealted. This destruction is sure to come if the lord is a natural !enefic li$e 6u"iter or %oon.
•
If a "lanet is ill "laced, in a !ad state, ecli"sed or in an inimical or sign of de"ression, if it is in its ealtation, own or friendly navamsa it manages to salvage the damage and recover after an initial set!ac$.

artari yoga, if caused !y natural !enefits (called su!ha'$artari* "laced in the 2nd :12 th from any "lanet indicate destruction of enemies during the dasa of the "lanet. In the case of "a"a'$artari yoga (malefics instead of !enefic "lanets in 2nd : 12th houses from any "lanet*, the "lanet suffering from such !lemish indicates trou!le from enemies.
•
"lanet "laced in its %oolatri$ona (office* or own sign (home* shall "rove to !e very aus"icious in successfully "romoting the matters signified !y the houses it owns. In a friendly sign it shall !e su""ortive !ut in an inimical or unfriendly sign, the affairs indicated !y the houses owned !y it shall !e annihilated or diminish res"ectively.
•
@oyal favor (a""ointments, "ower etc* is o!tained during the "eriod of 6u"iter or the th 7ord.
;lanets associating with them or having
uno!structed !eneficial rgala or associated with the hati$a 7agna give "ower and authority. 2.2 Stren"t •
It is the Strength of the "lanet that decides the fructification of yoga (good or !ad* and the etent of such fruits.
•
If the "lanet is "laced in a endra, if it is wea$ it shall !ring diseaseAdecay to the houses it owns, es"ecially during the "eriods of such maleficsA"lanets that are the cause of its wea$ness.

The "eriod of the !adha$esh1 or of a "lanet associated with it !rings disease and sorrow. ;lanets in endra to +aadha$a sign give sorrow or foreign travel.
2.3 $arana Stana •
The s"ecific most malefic "ositions of "lanets ca"a!le of causing death li$e suffering are as follows5 ' ?un in 12th house, %oon in 9th house, %ars in Eth house, %ercury in Eth house, 6u"iter in rd house, 0enus in /th house, ?aturn in 1st house and @ahu in Cth house from the 7agna (or dasa @asi*. ?uch "ositions of the "lanets are called Marana Sthana (death inflicting* and the "lanets !ecome $arana %araa (death inflictors*. ?uch "lanets also destroy their significations and houses they own.
