I have often wondered how these ancient Rishis arrived at such sophisticated " numbers " for the like of INDU Lagna and other astrological factors.

The question is about Mrityu Bhaga points. How were they determined? I have definately observed their effect, with transits and dasa bhukti, especially when they are associated with lagna or AK (for health) and other malefic influences in a chart.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2000 Report Share Posted September 7, 2000 Jaya Jagannath Dear Brendan, There are two sets of these points (if my memory serves me right) and KN Rao and Meenakshi Raut did some very good work out there. There is also a good logic to the numbers that make up the years of the Vimsottari dasa and ashtottari Dasa. I had shown as an example that JUPITER (ruling the Sukla Paksha) is the guru of Vimsottari dasa and the dasa periods of the luminaries (Sun=6 & Moon=10) add up to that of Jupiter (16=10+6). Similarly, VENUS (ruling the Krishna Paksha) is the guru of Ashtottari dasa and the dasa periods of the luminaries (Sun=6 & Moon=15) add up to that of Venus(21=15+6) in the Ashtottari dasa system.
