Strength of Planets: The Shadbala - I

[Guest guest]

Om krishna Guru:

 

Pranaam sarajit, Visti and gurus :

 

I had a doubt on the strength of individual elements of shadbala

mentioned below.

 

Kaala bala is expected to include the ayana bala yet on the

individual breakup requirement for kaala bala is lesser than the

requirment for aayana bala

 

Planets [KB}Kaala Bala (incl AB) Ayana Bala (AB)

Jup, merc, sun 50 30

Moon venus 30 40 (KB <AB)

Saturn, Mars 40 20

 

I checked up the BHPS translations available online, they mention

what was posted by sarajit. But the BPHS translation by GC sharma

chapter 29, verse 34-36 mentions

--> If sthana bala, dig bala, cheshta bala, kaala bala and Ayana bala

of jupiter, mercury and sun are respectively 165,35,50,112 and 30

virupas, then they are regarded as strong. and if the above balas of

venus and moon are respectively 133,50,30,100 and 40 virupas then

they are considered strong and if these balas of mars and saturn

happen to be 96,30,40,67 and 20 then thy are considered strong <--

 

>>8.2 Requirement of strength of individual elements of Shadbala:

Jupiter, Mercury and Sun are strong, if each of their Sthana Bala,

Dig Bala, Kaala Bala, Cheshta Bala and Ayana Bala are, respectively,

165, 35, 50, 112 and 30 Virupas. The same required for Moon and Venus

are 133, 50, 30, 100 and 40. For Mars and Saturn these are 96, 30,

40, 67 and 20.<<

 

The difference in above two articles is exchange of cheshta and kaala

bala.

 

Can I request the gurus clarify the matter, In the original sakskrit

script of shlokas has

 

" Krama sthana dik cheshta samayaayane " which should mean

sthana dik cheshta samaya(also a synonym for kaala) ayane

respectively.

 

Please clarify
