1-8. Use of the 16 Divisions. Now I will explain the use of these
sixteen divisions. The physique from Lagn, wealth from Hora, happiness
through co-born from Dreshkan, fortunes from Chaturthans, sons and
grandsons from Saptans, spouse from Navans, power (and position) from
Dashans, parents from Dvadashans, benefits and adversities through
conveyances from Shodashans, worship from Vimshans, learning from
Chaturvimshans, strength and weakness from Saptavimshans, evil effects
from Trimshans, auspicious and inauspicious effects from Khavedans and
all indications from both Akshavedans and Shashtians: these are the
considerations to be made through the respective Vargas. The Bhava,
whose Lord is in a malefic Shashtians, will diminish; so say Garga and
others. The
Bhava, whose Lord is in a benefic Shodashans,
flourish. This is how the 16 Vargas are to be evaluated. 9-12. After
assessing the 20 point strength of the ascending degree, of other Bhavas
and of the Grahas, the good and bad effects be declared. I explain
below the method of knowing the Vimsopak strength (20 point strength),
just by knowing which an idea of the results of actions of this birth
and of former birth will clearly emerge. The Grahas from Surya on get
full strength, when in exaltation, or in own Rashi and are bereft of
strength, when in the 7th (from exaltation). In between the strength be
known by the rule of three process. In the case of a Grah, owning two
Rashis, distinction of placement in odd/even Rashi identical with own
Rashi be made. 13-16. Hora, Dreshkan and Trimshans Effects. Guru, Surya
and Mangal give (pronounced) effects in the Hora of Surya. Candr, Sukr
and Sani do so, when in Candr’s Horas; Budh is effective in both the
Horas. In the case of an even Rashi the Hora of Candr will be powerful
in effects, while Surya’s Hora in an odd Rashi will be so. Full, medium
and nil will be the effects, respectively, in the beginning middle and
the end of a Hora. Similar applications be made for a Dreshkan, Turyans,
Navans etc. As for Trimshans
effects, Surya is akin to Mangal and
Candr is akin to Sukr. The effects, applicable to Rashi, will apply to
Trimshans. 17-19. Vimshopak Bal. The Shad Vargas consist of Rashi, Hora,
Dreshkan, Navans, Dvadashans and Trimshans. The full Bal for each of
the divisions, respectively, are 6, 2, 4, 5, 2 and 1. This is the
Vimshopak Bal, relating to Shad Varg division. Adding the Saptans to the
Shad Vargas, we get Sapt Varg, the Vimshopak Bal for which is 5, 2, 3,
2½, 4½, 2 and 1.These are gross strengths, while subtle ones should be
understood by exact positions. 20. Add Dashans, Shodashans and
Shashtians to the said Sapt Varg Divisions to get the scheme of Dasha
Varg. The Vimshopak Bal in this context is 3 for Rashi, 5 for Shashtians
and for the other 8 divisions 1½ each. 21-25. When
the 16
divisions (Shodash Varg Scheme) are considered together, the Vimshopak
score goes thus: Hora 1, Trimsans 1, Dreshkan 1, Shodashans 2, Navans 3,
Rashi 3½, Shashtians 4 and the rest of the nine divisions each a half.
The Vimshopak Bal remains as 20, only when the Grah is in own Bhava
Vargas. Otherwise, the total strength from 20 declines to 18 in Pramudit
Vargas, to 15 in Shant Vargas, to 10 in Svasth divisions, to 7 in
Duhkhit Vargas and to 5 in Khal Vargas. (These figures are called Varg
Vishwa) 26-27. Vimshopak Proportional Evaluation. Multiply the figure
due to full strength for the division by the Varg Vishwa and divide by
20 to get the exact strength of the Grah. If the total is below 5, the
Grah will not be capable of giving auspicious results. If it is above 5,
but below 10, the Grah will yield some good effects. Later on up to 15
it is indicative of mediocre effect. A Grah with above 15 will yield
wholly favourable effects. 28-29. Other Sources of Strength. Maitreya,
there are other kinds of sources, as I explain below. Grahas in the 7th
from Surya will be fully effective. One with an identical longitude in
comparison to Surya’s will destroy the good effects. Rule of three
process be applied to the Grah in between these positions. 30-32. Dasha
effects with Vimshopak Bal. Maitreya, after assessing the Vimshopak Bal
through the various divisions, the rising and setting of the Grahas be
considered. The Vimshopak Bal is classified under Purna, AtiPurna,
Madhya, AtiMadhya, Heen, AtiHeen, Swalpa and AtiSwalp. Thus should be
classified the Vimshopak Bal and the Dasha period results declared
accordingly. 33-36. Kendras, Konas etc. defined. O Maitreya, listen to
other matters, which I am explaining. The Kendras are specially known,
as Lagn (the ascendent), Bandhu Bhava, Yuvati Bhava (the descendant) and
Karm Bhava (mid-heaven). Dhan, Putr, Randhr and Labh Bhava are
Panapharas (succedents), while Sahaj, Ari, Dharm and Vyaya Bhava are
called Apoklimas (cadents). Putr and Dharm Bhava are known by the name
Kon (or trine). Evil Bhavas, or Dusthan Bhavas are Ari, Randhr and Vyaya
Bhava. Chaturasras are Bandhu and Randhr Bhava. Sahaj, Ari, Karm and
Labh Bhava are Upachaya Bhavas. 37-
38. Names of Bhavas. Thanu,
Dhan, Sahaj, Bandhu, Putr, Ari, Yuvati, Randhr, Dharm, Karma, Labh and
Vyaya are in order the names of Bhavas. I explained these briefly and
leave it to you to grasp more, according to your intelligence. As
delivered by Lord Brahma, some further information is added thus (i.e.
in the following verses). 39-43. Indications from Bhavas. Dharm Bhava
and the 9th from Surya deal with one’s father. Whatever effects are to
be known from the Karm and Labh
Bhava, be also known from similar
Bhavas, counted from Surya. Whatever results are to be known from
Bandhu, Tanu, Dhan, Labh and Dharm should also be known from the 4th of
Candr, from Kark Rashi itself and from the 2nd, 11th and 9th from Candr,
respectively. Whatever has to be known through Sahaj Bhava, be also
analyzed through the 3rd from Mangal. The 6th from Budh be also
considered in regard to indications, derivable from Ari Bhava. The 5th
from Guru, the 7th from Sukr and both the 8th and 12th from Sani stand
for consideration, respectively, in respect of offspring, spouse and
death. The Lord of the Bhava is equally important, when estimating the
indications of a particular Bhava.
