The Vimsottari Dasa has
two versions:-
two versions:-
If the native was born in
Sukla Paksha (bright half) with the ascendant in the Hora of Sun or in Krishna
Paksha (dark half) with the ascendant in the Hora of Moon, Dasa should start
from Ardra Nakshatra.

In the vice versa case,
the Dasa should start from Krittika (as is being done presently), i.e. if the
native was born in Krishna Paksha (bright half) with the ascendant in the Hora
of Sun or in Sukla Paksha (dark half) with the ascendant in the Hora of Moon,
Dasa should start from Krittika Nakshatra.

Nowadays the main reason
for predictions not coming true is that the Vimsottari Dasa is calculated from
Krittika only.

The Dasa-Phala-Darpan
written by Sri Nivas Sharma / (Pathak) son of Mahadeva Pathak of Jatak Tatva
has mentioned all these variations in his book. Some other books also mention
these points.

Now the important subject
of “Dasa” (periods) and Sub-periods of planets and the influence of planets on
the native of the horoscope, is dealt here.
of “Dasa” (periods) and Sub-periods of planets and the influence of planets on
the native of the horoscope, is dealt here.
According to the theory of
the great sages, the maximum period in stellar measure, or Nakshatra Duration,
up to which a man could live is 120 years, provided the planets are favourably
situated. This maximum period when converted to solar measure or “souramana”
works out to 118 years, 2 months and 29 days. The number of years in stellar
measure that each of the planets Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn,
Mercury, Ketu and Venus would bestow on man is 6, 10, 7, 18, 16, 19, 17, and 20
years respectively.

In the Vimsottari
Das-Starting from Krittika Nakshatra, the Lords of Dasas are Sun, Moon, Mars,
Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu and Venus in that order.

The process of finding out
the period of the planet within which a person was born is easy. Thus, when the
Nakshatras from Krittika to the Birth Nakshatra are divided by nine, the
remainder will signify the Lord of the commencing Dasa. Counting of stars is in
groups of nine. In each group, the 1st and the succeeding stars are
governed by Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu and Venus
respectively.

will be ruling at the time of birth. The remaining Dasas will be of the Planets
in the order given above.

Having ascertained the
period of the particular planet that is in current at the time of birth, the
next step will be to find out, what portion of that period remained after
birth.

1. To
find out the remainder of the Dasa, operating at the time of birth, first find
out the expired portion of the Dasa of the concerned Planet. This is done, as
follows:-

2.
Multiply the Dasa period of the Planet concerned by the period of the stay of
Moon in Birth Nakshatra, that has expired and divide that amount by the total
period of the stay of Moon in that Nakshatra. The figure are in years, months
etc. so arrived at will be the expired period of the Dasa. When this figure is
deducted from the total period of the Dasa, we will get the balance of Dasa at
the time of birth.

The balance of Dasa at
birth can be directly known from the table named as Balance of Vimsottari Dasa
by Longitude of Moon (sidereal in any Ephemeris (Indian) or Panchanga or book
on Vimsottari Dasa having such tables.
