Chapter 7 · Finding the Dashas
दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
वर्षप्रवेशे दिनभं च यत्स्यात्तस्याधिपस्याद्यदशा भवेत्सा ॥ततस्तु तत्खेटदशा क्रमेण दशा भवेयुः सदसत्फलार्थम् ॥
Whatever nakshatra (star) runs on the day of the year entry, the first dasha (planet period) is its lord's. Then the dashas of the planets follow in order. They give good and bad results.
Simple meaning: Varshaphalapradipa: the first period belongs to the lord of the day's star at the year entry. The others follow in order.
अथ जन्मकालाभावे जन्मराशिवशाद्दशानयनमुक्तं तत्रैव ॥
Birth time not known: some count the year's periods from the birth sign. That way is given next.
जन्मन्यर्कदशा ततो विधुदशा यावद्द्वितीयो रविस्त्रिस्थेर्केदशवासरा शशिदशा भौमस्य पाकस्ततः ॥
Birth time not known: the periods follow the Sun's move through the houses from the birth sign: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Saturn. Each runs a few…
ततो दशेज्यस्य च यावदष्टनवस्थितेर्के दश वासराः स्युः ॥
Birth time not known, continued: Jupiter while the Sun is in the 8th and 10 days of the 9th. Then Rahu, 20 days into the 10th. Then Venus.
