KANDA [I (105 SLOKAS) 118

Introduction Uttara kalamrita isan invaluable contribution in the field of Astrology

by the poet Kalidasa. Some authorities have expressed Iheirdoubts about lhe authorship inspile of the referrences in the first three Slokas aboul the poet and the king Vikramaditya and claim that the text hasbcencomposcd by some Astrologer of South India. Whatever may be the truth, the fact remains that it is a praiseworthy compilation of Astrological findings on the various aspeas of human life pertaining to a native and makes the s tudy both instructive and profitable to all-whether casual readers or sch 0 \;:J rs.

This Book is divided into two Kanda : the first consists of8 sect ions dealing with Time of Binh, Planets, Bhavas, Strength of Planets. Length of Life, Planetary effects in several Bhnvas, $atum and Jupitercombining to make the philosopher, Function (Karkatva) ofBhavas and Planets (this part is unparellel), Dasa Periods and on Queries; the second kanda deals with issues like the Sraddha ceremonies, rituals and the adoption of sons.

As no one Book is enough and complete in itselfand a good collection of books on anyone subject is essential, this Uttarakalamrita will certainly make a wonderful companion of the reader, whatever else he might have studied. Remember in the absence of a Guru, books are the best Guide. Such a Guide will be the UHarakalamrita.

My thanks are due to Narinder Sagar orSagar Publications in bringing out this book so suf"'ttSSfully.

Thereafter, with the help of the preceptor, delineate tbe otber planets mathematically according to tbe 'Drik' system oC cal culation in their Rasi and Amsas as in the zodiac. So should the wise Astrologer cbeerfuUy compute the Bbava-spashta along with the Bbava-Sandhis.

lSI to 22S - do - a male These five groups represent. in their order male, fe-

male. ma.le, female and male . respectively.

Example :Ishta Ghatikas are 56.12, i.e., 56x60+12 = 3372 + 225 = 14x22S+222 Therefore, the birth will be that of a male.

(c) Lagna Suddhi : Flnd out the Rasi occupied by the Moon and Mandi; and also their Navamsas. The native will have his birtb either in the Rasi occupied by Mandi or the Moon whichever be stronger; or in the Lagna Rasi which will be 7th, 5th or the 9th from either of them. If instead of these two Rasis, the Navamsa Rasi owned by Mandi or tbe Moon be stronger, tben the Janma Lagna will be in the stronger Navamsa Rasi or the 7th, 5th or the 9th from it.

cr. PbaJadeepika m-16. Notes : In lhis sloka an effort has been made to arrive

at Janma Nakshatra. Jaruna Lagna and the sex (male or female) of the native with the belp of Ishl. Ghatika and Vighatika. Knowledge of the sex of the native can also be gained through Pranpada. Distribute the 27 Nakshtras in 3 Paryaya of 9 Naksha tras each. Aswini to Aslesba should make the 1st Paryaya; Magba to Jyestba, the 2nd and the 3rd should comprise of Moola to Revati. When the Ishta kala is multiplied by 4 and divided by 9, the remainder will give the Janma Nakshatra. This will also tell about the accuracy of the Ishta kala. When the Janma Naksbatra discovered through this Paddbati is identical with the one indicated by the Rasi occupied by the Moon in a nativity, the Ishta kala should be taken as correct, otherwise some addition or deduc tions ",;,ilI have to be made in it. Similarly, the correctness of the Janma Lagna should also be verified in this manner.

Sioka-? On the week days reckoned from Sunday on-wards multiply the Dinmana (length of the day from Sun Rise to Sun Set) respectively by Charu (26), Khari (22), lata (18), Varo (14), Nata (10). Tanu (6) and RooD (2) and divide tbe product by Khanga (30) and the quo tient arrived at in Gbatikas and Palas etc., taken as lsbta, oompule the Lagna. The Lagna discovered will be Mandi Sphuta. The Eighth part of the Dirunana or tbal of the Ratrimana is tbe period of each planet. When tbe birth is during the day, the lords of the 1st seven Muhurtas be-ginning with Sunda y onwards will respectively be the Sun, the Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn.

Here the words Cha m, Khari etc. have been interpreted with tbe help of K.atpayadi system.

3l'~f~jt ft f,\tl>.mi! !J~ilil ~Gbulika and Mandi are taken as two sons of Saturn and according to Mandavya Rishi they are most harmful: wherever they are posited they destroy the effects of that Bhavl! com-pletely. In some old Text-books they have been accepted as

6

one and the same thing; and it is a popular view. Bul the autbor here on the basis of Rishi Mandavya's view has maintained their plurality. Tberefore, to arrive at Mandi multiply the Ghatikas of the lshta kala by tbe number assigned to the week-day and divide the product by 30. The Ghatika-Palas thus obtained should be used to fix Mandi in the Rasi, Amsa. Kala and Villala the same way as is done 10 place tbe Lagn .

The reader should remember about Gulika that the portion owned by Saturn. on the week-day of the birth, belongs to Gulika. For this purpose, divide the Dinmana in eight-equal parts and the lord of each Maburata will be computed from the week day of the birth. The portion allowed 10 Saturn will belong to Gulilea. In the case of night birth divide the Ratrimana in eight equal parts and count the Stb Muhurata from tbe ,week-day of the birth and find out tbe portion belonging to Saturn, that will be called Gulika. In short, note the week-day of the birth and divide its Ratrimana or Dinmana by eight. The eighth part will be one Muhul3ta. In the day birth the lord of the first Mahurata will be denoted by the planet owning the week day of the birth and in the case of night-birtb it will be the 5tb from tbe lord of the week~ay. Write this Maburata in one place and count the position of Saturn; such as, Sunday as 7th. Tuesday as Stb and Wednesday as tbe 4th etc. In the night-birth count from the Sth planet denoted by the week-day. Note the position of Saturn. This should be multiplied by the 8th portion of the Ratriman. The product will give tbe Ishta of Gulika . Compute with tbis 100 Lagna, it will give Gulika Sphuta Lagna or Gulika Sphuta.

Example. Gulika is to be found in the case of Day birth on Monday, Oinaman is 32 Ghatikas.

1berefore, 32 + 8 = 4 Ghatikas for one Mahurata. Count upto Saturday from Monday. It is 6th (in order).

Hence 4 x 6 = 24 Ghalikas. This is GuHka's Ishta Kala as desired. This will belp posting GuJika the way the Lagna is computed.

In the case of Night birth the position will be :

About tbe I amp and the Qil in the Labour Room Sioka-ii. 'The number of midwives attending on the woman

in labour will correspond with the number of planets between the l.agna and the Moon. The planets outside the Moon and the Lagna will denote the number of WQn.en a!tending her without the Chamber. 'The Moon denotes the oil in the Lamp. i.e., quan-tity of oil left in the lamp will correspond with the degrees yet to be traversed by the Moon in ber sign. The wick of tbe lamp is to be assessed from the lagna- the portion of the Rising Sign yet to rise - and that of the Lamp itselr. from the Sun. The lords of the various directions respectively are the Sun of the East; Venus. Soulb - East; Mars - South; Rabu, South - West; Saturn, West; the Moon., North - West, Mercury, North and; Jupiter of the North - East.

The door of the delivery room will be in the direction indicated by tbe powerful planets occupying tbe Kendra (Angular) houses or in the absence oC such a position., by tbe strongest of them (kendra) in the chart.

Notes: These Astrological indications have been devised in order to check the accuracy of tbe Janma Lagna and the sat-israction of tbe parents of the native born. The females present in tbe Labour Room to help are called mid- wives. Their number sbould be devised on tbe basis of the planets being between the Lagna and tbe Moon. But remember. if perchance all tbe plan-ets are so placed, do not indicate more tban S to 7 midwives. If any planet is witb tbe Moon or in the Lagna. tbe planet in tbe Lagna sbould be of bigber degrees tban tbat of tbe Lagna and tbe planet witb the Moon should be of lower degrees tban tbose of the Moon.

The oil, already. burnt in tbe lamp or is left, is 10 be as-sessed by tbe degrees tbe Moon has traversed in ber sign or yet to traverse. This sounds incongruous in the days of electricity; but it will be true where tbere is DO electric current available and people live by oil lamps. The same way tbe direction of tbe door of tbe labour room should be indicated from the strongest planet occupying tbe Angular Hom:.f'

Cf Chandra Kala Nadi by Dev Keralkar:

Chandra Lagna is body and the Lagna is soul. There-fore, in Astrology results have been devised after examining the various 8havas from both the Lagnas . 11 is customary in Northern India to prepare tbe Moon Ascendant Chart also along with the Lagna Chart when writing the Horoscope.

Along with tbis, the basic principle of predictive Astrol-ogy is to examine also the lord of the Shava under considera-tion, its Karab and the Bhava itself. Without this no consid eration of a nativity would be commendable.

Notes: It is not difficult to arrive at these three results: Friendship, neutrality or enemity between tbe planets. Exam-ine the position of the Sun. His Moollrikona is Leo. (The Mool-lrikona signs respectively o f the Sun etc. are 5, Z. 1, 6, 9, 7 and 11. A planet's friends are tbe lords of the 2nd, 12th. Stb, 9th, 8tb and the 4tb houses from his Moolatrikona Rasi). The 2nd, 12th. 5tb, 9th, 8th and the 4th places from Leo are respectively Virgo, Cancer, Sagittarious, Aries, Pisces and Scorpio. Aries is the exaltation sign of the Sun. Their lords respectively are Mercury, the Moon. Jupiter, Mars, Jupiter and Mars. Singu larly they are Mercury, the Moon, Jupiter and Mars . Aries has been counted twice. Therefore, actually only the 6 houses have been ' dealt with. The remaining 6 are Leo, Ubra, Capricorn, Aquarius, Taurus and Gemini. Their respective lords are thc Sun, Venus, Saturn, Venus and Mercury. Whcn we oounl Sat urn and Venus once only and drop the Sun, we arc len with Venus, Saturn and Mercury. Compare these with the fanner set of planets; viz., Mercury, Moon, Jupiter and Mars. Mercury alone has come as a friend and an enemy in both the list. Therefore, be will remain neutral. Thus Venus and Saturn are left as his enemies and the Moon, Mars and Jupiter are his friends. Simi larly, we can compute with the other planets. This is called Natural relationship of planets.

Planets occupying the three houses before or after from any particular planet in the birth chart become the friends of

13

that planet and the rest become bis enemies for the time being. This is called Temporary Friendship or enmity (relationship). Some authorities opine that the planets occupying the exalta-tion sign of a particular planet are also his friends. Combining the three natural relations with the two temporary ones we get the 'Panchdha' (five) following types of friendship of the planets: Alimitm (great friend) Mitra (friend) Sarna (neutral), Salro (enemy), and Atisatru (great enemy) .

Atimitra

Atisatru

Both ways friends;

Both ways enemies;

Sarna one way friend and the other,enemy.

respectively are : Leo, Taurus, Aries, Virgo, Sagittarius, Libra and Aquarius. Aries, Taurus , Capricorn, Virgo, Canoer, Pisces and Libra are the enltation Rasis of the SUR, tbe Moon., Mars Mercury, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn respectively. When a planet occupies his exaltation Rasi, his Bala (strength) is equivalent 10 1 Rupa (full); in tbe Moolatrikona it reduces to 3/4th of a Rupa; in his own Rasi. it becomes 1/2 of a Rupa; in the Rasi of an Adhimitra it contracts to 3/41h of. Rupa; in that of his mitra, it is 1I41h, in that of a Sarna it is 1I81h; in that of a Salm (enemy) it is l/16th and; in that of an adhisalru it is l/32nd of a Rupa .

Notes: when a planet is in its exaltation part it has the maximum ba!a (strength) of 60 Sbastiamsas, and at intenncdi-ate positions it is the proportionate value. Look at the follow-mg table:

Exaltation 60 Sbastiamsas Moolatrikona 45 .. Swasbetra 30 .. Adhi mitra 22.5 .. Mitra IS .. Sarna 7.5 .. Satru 3.75 .. Adbisatru 1.875 .. ,

exaltation. When a planet is in association with a retrograde planet, the strength be gets is 1(2 a Rupa. When a planet ocru-pies his exaltation Bhava, but is retrograde in his motion, be gets only his Neechabala : be is without any strength. Should a planet be retrograde while in his debilitation Bhava, his strength is akin to that when in his exaltation. A planet in conjunction with another planet which is in exaltation gets 1/2 a Rupa. When he conjoins anotber who is in his debilitation he gets nothing. When a planet associates himself with malefics who may be his friends, or with henefics who happen to be his enemies, gelS only 1/2 a Rupa.

The Drekkanas (lOrd ot a Rasi) are owned by the lords of (I) the lst, 5th and 9th wit, respect to that Rasi in the case of movable signs; (2) the 9th, bt and 5th in the case of a fixed sign and (3) the 5th. 9th and lst in the case of a dual sign. The lords of the Saptamsas or l(7tb portions are in odd Rasis to be reckoned regularly from the lord thereof, while in the case of an even Rasi they are to be counted from the lord of the 7th onwards. Next. as to the order of the Navamsas.

Notes: 1bere are in vogue 3 ways to find out the lord of tbe three Drekkanas in each Rasi

(1) The lords of the 1st, 5th and the 9th with respect to that Rasi;

(2) They are the lords of : (a) the 1st, 5th and 9th in the case of a movable sign; (b) tbe 9th, lst and Sth in the case of a fixed sign: (c) tbe 5th, 9th and 1st in the case 'of a dual sign. (3) The lords of the lsI, 12th and 11th with respect to that

sign. The (1) one has been propounded by Varahmibira only; The (2) one is held by the present author. The (3) method has been recommended by Yavanesb-

wara wben attending a query (Prasna).

Slob 21 Ih-ZZ Y.t When this strength exceeds 10 Rupas it will be considered Pumabla. Without doubt such a planet will be most auspicious. His Dasa will be exceedingly favourable and will bestow upon the native all that be would dream of; such as, wealth, happiness, etc., provided the planet is pro ceeding to hiS exaltation point. A planet possessing medium strength but going towards hls exaltation point, his Dasa will also prove productive of prosperity and happiness. But when a planet is on his way to his depression point the Dasa will be unfavorable, A pJa~1 having the strength less than S Rupas will only cause misery and misfortune during his Dasa period.

Should benefics occupy the said bhavas the loss will be half of what is incurred by the malefic ones. When a malefic is posited in the Lagna, tbe whole of the Ayurdaya contributed by the Ase. is to be taken away. In the case of a planet in its depression point one-half of the period assigned to it is lost. When a planet is housed in an inimical bbava, a reduction of one-third of his Ayus is to be made. When he is set or defeated in planetary war his Ayurdaya is further reduced by half. Amsayurdaya metbod is peculiar in this way. Cf. Brihat Jataka VII 2-4, 9-11. , -

The Lagna and these lords of a Kana and a Kendra enjoy the aspect of Jupiter from the 9th house (a Kana) _ the Lord ofLagna. Again, the Sun and Jupiter are occupying each olher's house. This Jupiter aspects Mars in Hie 3rd house who, in turn, is aspecting Sat. in the 10th house. The Link between these 5 planets fonning the great Raja Yoga may be noted. Venus, the lord ofthe 11th is in the 2nd and is alone responsible for the Dhana Yoga. Hence the native e njoyed position, status, Royal favour and prosperity.

The lords of the 9th and 101:h (Venus and Mars) counted from the 9th house from the Lagna aspect each other, thus fonninga medium gain which the native has already achieved as an tA.S. This short fall is due to the fact that the Lord oCLagna, Mercury; and the lord oelOO 9th, Saturn are together with the disqualification thallhey are within S to 6 degrees from the Sun (therefore, are sel). Saturn is in the 9tb in his Moo! trikona. Venus is the lord of the 4th and the 9th from the Moon uglla and the Sun Lagna camping in his friend ' s bouse. These 5 planets are aspecled by Mars occupying the Sagittarius Navamsa and enjoying the 5th aspect of Jupiter himself. This native will face some difficulty during the Mahadasa of Mercury & AntaroCSatum starting from 5.9.1995 for a period of 2 yrs. 8 months and 9 days.

In this chart, Venus, the lord of the 51h and 10th houses is the Yoga Karaka occupying the 5tb position from the 10th Bhava; whereas the 5th house is 4th from him in the 2nd house, the Dhana Bhava. He is associated with Mercury, the lord of the 9tb and the 6th; the Sun, lord of the 8th; Jupiter tbe lord of the 12th and 3rd. In short the lordsofthe 6th, the 8th and the 12th have conjoined witb the Yoga Karaka, Venus in the 2nd place from the Lagna. This planetary configuration has bestowed upon the native the status of a great statesman in one of the JeadingNative Stales of India . The native had untold wealth as the lord of the 9th was in the 2nd with Venus.

The presence of Ketu in the Kalatrn hhava has left a scar on the lordsofthe 6th,tlle 8th and the 12th, beingsixthevery way and thus making them instrument of casting dark s hadows on the life of the native also. They caused an early demise of the wife and as a result ve ry disturbed domestic life.

They also bappen to be the lords of the 91h and the 10th from tbe 9th house. Rahu in the Cancer Lagna is note-worthy. The native isa very brilliant student of a Public School and maintains the 2nd or 3rd position in her class. This is a powe rful Db,lIla Yoga a nd the native will be happily settled in life.

SIoka 5-5 Y.! Multiply the Dasa.years of a planet by the Dasayears or tbe other planet whose Bhukti or sub-period is desired. The product will be in 2 or 3 digits. The number denoted by the first two digits, in the case under study, will be the number of months contained in the Bhukti. and the last digit multiplied by 3 will give the required days etc. The periods of all the Bhuktis in the seve"'8l Oasas should be prepared in this mannllr. Convert tbe Bhukti period into days and multiply the same by the number denoting the Dasa-years of a planet. Take a moiety of the product. This will indicate lhe Vidasa or Antara of tbe Planet in terms of Gbalikas etc. and when this is divided by 60 it will de note the period in days. The Sukshamadasa should also be similarly Clleutated, and the peculiarity is that the numbers each below the other in their order will signify the Sub-period in days, Ghatikas and Vighatikas.

Examplo : Jupiter's Bhukti period in tbe Dasa of Venus is ob-tained by multiplying ' 16 x 20 . The product is 320 and this means 32 months and nil days.

Similarly calculate the sub-period of the Moon in the above Jupiter's Bhukti in the following manner.

Convert the 32 months into days, thus: 32 x 30 or 960 days. Multiply it by 10. the Dasa period of the Moon, and take into ronsideration only a half of the product ie., 960 x 10 x 1/ 2 = 4800. This will denote the number of Ghatikas of the Moon's Antar. When this is converted into days, it will be; 4800 + 60 or. 80 days

Sloka-22. Ir Brahmins receive wealth [rom Sudra women, promising them to serve like slaves, they indeed beoome Sudras and gct the fruit prescribed for them. So has opined the Sage Parasara. He says a Sudra who causes a sacrifice to be per-fonned in the house of a Brahmin will reap its full benefits. A man who is given away in adoption himself should perfonn the Sraddha of his father (who begot him) when tbe person sup-posed to do it is absent.

even if they come [rom a different GOlra, but remain bereft of Sapindya relationship. So says the Sage Vasishtha. When an adopted son originally belonged to a different Vedic Sakha (branch) was invested with the sacred thread according to the Sakha of the father adopting him, he certainly gets the Sakha, ctc., of his 2nd father. He has got the right for a share in his father's property. This inheritance will not then depend upon the Sapindya relationship. As regards tbe pollution (Shauch and Soolaka) also, be gets it just like his adoptive (2nd) father and not olbclWise.

any right over his falher's wealth, Gotra and funeral libations and he gets them pertaining to his adoptive father. After adop-lion by another; a man cannot give funeral libations to his father thai has begotten him.

With regard to sacrifce and funeral offerings, the rule is th::lt the adopted person will follow the system of his new rela-tive (father). When a person foresees the extinction of his family, he gives his daughter in marriage with the idea of adopting her son as his own, the grand son born of that wedlock will be like that of his own born, and the relationship is confirmed, pro-vided there is no desire for double parentage, i.e., maintaing relationship with both the families.

brother's wife. A widower who is not keeping the marital fire or whose wife is living Car away, should get his falher's anni-versary (Sraddha) perfonned by his brothers who are maintain-ing that fire and their wives living with them. It should not be observed by others (the co-partners and the like).

The Anniversary ceremony should not be observed along with tbe daily sacrificial fire, as after kindling it and keeping it with oblations, it must be disposed of (rejected).
