दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
Dashas in varshaphal are the planet periods that spread the year's results over time. This chapter starts by saying why they are needed.
It then teaches the main method, which lists the planets by their degrees, and shows how to find the start day of each period. It also gives other ways to set the periods, such as by the planets that look at the lagna. Then it gives the results of each planet's period and sub-period, and Gauri's mudda periods from the birth star, and ends with a guide on which system to use.
The English below is our translation from the Sanskrit.

Finding the dasha (planet period) is told in the Muktavali. The dasha called Gaurimata (Gauri's view, a system of nine-planet periods) is counted from the birth nakshatra (star). [The lords are] Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Moon and Venus. (Our text is unclear here.)
Simple meaning: Gauri's periods: counted from the birth star, with nine lords from the Sun to Venus.

[In a day,] these dasha (planet period) lengths are a sixth part, in ghatika (24-minute unit) and smaller units. They give results. Or else, count from Ardra (Rudra's star) in groups of three stars. These same planets are the dasha lords. Mahadeva said this.
Simple meaning: Day periods: a sixth of the days, in ghatikas. Mahadeva's view: count from Ardra, three stars to each lord.

Next, the order of the dasha (planet period) told in Gaurimata (Gauri's view, a system of nine-planet periods). Take the first dasha, reached from the birth nakshatra (star). Multiply it by the star's ghatika (24-minute unit) passed and still to run. Divide by all the star's ghatikas. The result is in days and so on. You get two figures here: the part still to run and the part passed. Write [the part still to run] below, for that same planet. Then write the dasha lengths of the next planets, in order, one below another...
Simple meaning: Gauri's periods, first period: split it by the part of the birth star passed and still to run.

...At the end, write again the days of the first planet, made from the ghatika (24-minute unit) passed, in its own place. Here is an example. Someone's birth nakshatra (star) is Rohini. Rohini stands under the Moon. So in the first year the dasha (planet period) is the Moon's. In the second year it is Mars's. In the third year it is Rahu's. Go on in the same way. For this person's birth star Rohini, 40 ghatikas had passed and 20 were still to run. At the entry of the 8th year, Venus's dasha came. Its days are 60. Multiply by the 20 ghatikas still to run: 1200. Divide by 60, the ghatikas of the whole star. This gives Venus's dasha days. So in the 8th year, Venus's dasha comes first, for the 20 days still to run. Then come the Sun 18, the Moon 30, Mars 21 and Rahu 54. Then Jupiter 48, Saturn 57, Mercury 51 and Ketu 21. At the end, Venus's dasha comes again, for the 40 days already passed.
Simple meaning: Gauri's periods, example: birth star Rohini, 8th year in Venus's period; Venus 20 days, then the others, Ketu 21 days, then Venus 40.

Here, the dasha (planet period) of Gaurimata (Gauri's view, a system of nine-planet periods), of Mahadevamata (Mahadeva's view, the same periods counted from Ardra) and of Balarama's view is found as follows. At the month entry, it is found from the nakshatra (star) of the month-entry day. At the day entry, it is found from the star of the exact lagna (rising sign). For example, in Aries, up to 13 degrees 20 minutes is Ashvini star only. Another name for this dasha is mudda (Gauri's yearly period system) dasha.
Simple meaning: Month and day periods: at the month entry use that day's star; at the day entry use the star of the lagna. These are the mudda periods.

An easy way to find the mudda (Gauri's yearly period system) dasha (planet period), made by Mishra. Take the years passed and add the number of the birth nakshatra (star). Take away 2. Divide by 9 and keep the remainder. The remainder gives the dasha lord for the year. The planets go in this order: Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu, Venus.
Simple meaning: Mudda period lord of a year: years passed plus the birth star number, less 2, divided by 9; the remainder counts Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu, Venus.

This table lists Gauri's dasha (planet period) lords, their stars and their days. The lords are Sun, Moon, Mars, Rahu, Jupiter, Saturn, Mercury, Ketu and Venus. Their first nakshatra (star) row is Krittika, Rohini, Mrigashira, Ardra, Punarvasu, Pushya, Ashlesha, Magha and Purva Phalguni. The second row is Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Vishakha, Anuradha, Jyeshtha, Mula and Purva Ashadha. The third row is Uttara Ashadha, Shravana, Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha, Purva Bhadrapada, Uttara Bhadrapada, Revati, Ashvini and Bharani. By Mahadevamata (Mahadeva's view, the same periods counted from Ardra), their first stars are Ardra, Ashlesha, Uttara Phalguni, Swati, Jyeshtha and Uttara Ashadha. Then come Shatabhisha, Revati and Krittika. A row of 3s follows: three stars to each lord. Their days are 18, 30, 21, 54, 48, 57, 51, 21 and 60, total 390. Their month shares are 1 1/2, 2 1/2, 1 3/4, 4 1/2 and 4. Then 4 3/4, 4 1/4, 1 3/4 and 5, total 30. Their day shares are 3, 5, 3 1/2, 9 and 8. Then 9 1/2, 8 1/2, 3 1/2 and 10, total 30. (Our text is unclear here: the last total; the day shares add to 60.)
Simple meaning: Table of Gauri's periods: the nine lords with their stars, days in the year, shares in a month and shares in a day.

Here the antardasha (sub-period) lengths are told by an easy way, in the Samudrika book. The multipliers for the Sun and the others are 4, 8, 5, 7, 10, 6, 9, 5 and 6. Multiply the planet's own dasha (planet period) by them.
Simple meaning: Mudda sub-periods: each planet has a multiplier, 4, 8, 5, 7, 10, 6, 9, 5, 6, from the Sun on; multiply the period by it.

Divide by sixty. That gives that planet's antardasha (sub-period), quite clearly. The planet whose year it is has the first antardasha.
Simple meaning: Mudda sub-periods: divide by 60; the year's own planet takes the first sub-period.

The others follow from the next place in the same way. Each antardasha (sub-period) goes likewise. In a bad planet's year there is sorrow. In a good planet's year, happiness comes.
Simple meaning: Mudda sub-periods: the rest follow in order; a bad planet's year brings sorrow, a good one's brings happiness.
Verse 7.1 says a dasha is the time when good and bad results ripen. Verse 7.3 adds that it is the time in which a planet gives the results of the houses.
Verse 7.10 says Hillaja puts the stronger planet's period first. So the weaker planet still gets a period, after it.
Verse 7.295 says that at the month entry the periods are found from the star of that day, and at the day entry from the star of the lagna. These are called the mudda periods.
