1. O Maharishi Parashar, you have earlier stated,
that the Avasthas, or states of the Grahas are to be
considered in the context of the effects of the
Grahas. Be so kind to tell me about this.
2. O excellent of Brahmins, various kinds of
Avasthas of the Grahas have been expounded. Out of
these, I will give you the summary of Baal (infant)
and other states of the Grahas.
3. Baal, Kumar, Yuv, Vriddh and Mrit Avastha
(Baal Adi Avasthas). Infant, youthful, adolescent,
old and dead are the states of the Grahas, placed in
the ascending order at the rate of six degrees in
odd Rashis. In the case of even Rashis this
arrangement is in reverse order. (Vriddh - Advanced,
Mrit - In extremis)
4. Results. One fourth, half, full, negligible
and nil are the grades of the results, due to a Grah
in infant, youthful, adolescent, old and dead
Avasthas.
5. Awakening, Dreaming and Sleeping States. If a
Grah is in its own Rashi, or in exaltation, it is
said to be in a state of awakening (alertness). In
the Rashi of a friend, or of a neutral it is in
dreaming state, while in an enemy’s Rashi, or in
debilitation it is in a state of sleeping.
6. According to a Grah, being in Awakening,
Dreaming, or Sleeping states, the results, due to it
will be full, medium, or nil.
7. Other Kinds of States. There are nine kinds of
other Avasthas, viz. Dipt, Swasth, Pramudit, Shanta,
Din, Vikal, Duhkhit, Khal and Kop.
8-10. If a Grah is in its exaltation Rashi, it is
in Dipt Avastha, if in its own Rashi, it is in
Swasth, if in a great friend’s Rashi, it is in
Pramudit, if in a friendly Rashi, it is in Shanta,
if in a neutral Rashi, it is in Din, if a Grah is
yuti with a malefic, it is in Vikal, if is in an
enemy’s Rashi, it is in Duhkhit, if in a great
enemy’s Rashi, it is in Khal and, if a Grah is being
eclipsed by Sūrya, it is in Kop. Depending on such a
state of the Grah, the Bhava, occupied by it will
obtain corresponding effects.
11-18. Yet other Avasthas. Lajjit, Garvit,
Kshudhit, Trushit, Mudit and Kshobhit are the other
kinds of Avasthas, due to the Grahas. Placed in Putr
Bhava, if a Grah is associated with Rahu, or Ketu,
or with Sūrya, Śani, or Mangal, it is in Lajjit
Avastha. If a Grah is in exaltation, or in
Mooltrikon, it is Garvit. If a Grah is in an enemy’s
Rashi, or yuti with an enemy, or receives a Drishti
from an enemy, or even, if a Grah is yuti with Śani,
the Avastha is Kshudhit. If a Grah is in a watery
Rashi and receives a Drishti from a malefic, but
does not receive a Drishti from a benefic, the
Avastha is called Trushit. If a Grah is in a
friendly Rashi, or is yuti with, or receives a
Drishti from a benefic, or is yuti with Guru, it is
said to be in Mudit Avastha. If a Grah is yuti with
Sūrya and receives a Drishti from, or is yuti with a
malefic, or receives a Drishti from an enemy, it is
said to be in Kshobhit. The Bhavas, occupied by a
Grah in Kshudhit, or in Kshobhit, are destroyed.
19-23. The learned should estimate the effects,
due to a Bhava, in the manner, cited above, after
ascertaining the strength and weakness. Weak Grahas
cause reduction in good effects, while stronger ones
give greater effects. If a Grah, posited in Karm
Bhava, is in Lajjit, Kshudhit Avastha, or Kshobhit
Avastha, the person will always be subjected to
miseries. If a Grah in Putr is in Lajjit, there will
be destruction of progeny, or there will be only one
surviving child. Surely the wife of the native will
die, if there is a Grah in Yuvati in Kshobhit, or in
Trushit Avastha.
24-29. Effects of Garvit, Mudit, Lajjit, Kshobhit,
Kshudhit and Trushit Avastha. A Grah in Garvit
Avastha will cause happiness through new houses and
gardens, regalhood, skill in arts, financial gains
at all times and improvement in business. A Grah in
Mudit Avastha will give residences, clothes,
ornaments, happiness from lands and wife, happiness
from relatives, living in royal places, destruction
of enemies and acquisition of wisdom and learning. A
Grah in Lajjit will give aversion to God, loss of
intelligence, loss of child, interest in evil
speeches and listlessness in good things. A Grah in
Kshobhit will give acute penury, evil disposition,
miseries, financial debacles, distress to feet and
obstruction to income, due to royal wrath. A Grah in
Kshudhit will cause downfall, due to grief and
passion, grief on account of relatives, physical
decline, troubles from enemies, financial distress,
loss of physical strength and an eclipsed mind, due
to miseries. A Grah in Trushit Avastha will cause
diseases through association with females, leading
over wicked deeds, loss of wealth, due to one’s own
men, physical weakness, miseries, caused by evil
people and decline of honour.
30-37. Calculation of Shayan Adi Avasthas. Now I
will tell you of the Avasthas, viz. Shayan, Upavesan,
Netrapani, Prakash, Gaman, Agaman, Sabh, Agam,
Bhojan, Nritya Lips, Kautuk and Nidr and the
Chesthas of such Avasthas. Note the number of the
star, occupied by the Grah, for which an Avastha is
to be calculated. Multiply that number by the
number, denoted by the Grah (Sūrya 1 to Śani 7). The
figure so arrived at should again be multiplied by
the number of the Navāńś, where the Grah is in. Add
to this the number of the birth asterism (ruling
star, the one, occupied by Candr), the number of
Ghatis of birth and the number of Rashis, Lagn
gained from Mesh (Mesh 1, Vrishabh 2 and so forth).
This figure should be divided by 12 and the
remainder will indicate the corresponding Avastha of
the Grah. The sub-state in the said Avastha can be
found out in the following way. Multiply the figure
(Sayan 1 to Nidr 12), denoted by the Avastha
concerned, by the same figure and increase it by the
figure, denoted by the Anka value for the first
syllable of the native’s personal name. Divide the
product so obtained by 12. The remainder thereof
should be further increased by constant additives of
the Grahas in the following way: Sūrya 5, Candr 2,
Mangal 2, Budh 3, Guru 5, Śukr 3, Śani 3, Rahu (Ketu)
4. The product so arrived at should be divided by 3.
In the process of calculation, if it happens, that
the remainder is 1, it is Drishti, if 2, it is
Chesht and, if 0, it is Vichesht.
Notes. Shayan Adi are of supreme importance, as
compared to the other kinds of Avasthas.
In place of Navāńś, given above, some translators
interpret the word Ańś, as degree, occupied by the
Grah, which is obviously not correct. In this
connection the reader’s attention is drawn to
Balabhadr’s Hora Ratna, Ch. 3, wherein the author,
Balabhadr himself, gives an example for Sūrya, being
in the 7th Navāńś of Simh and thus he
considered only 7, as multiplier. He quotes Adhibhut
Sagara, as his authority for calculation of Sayan
Adi.
Agaman Avastha is known, as Gamanechch by some
exponents.
Anka value is 1 for a, ka, cha, ḍ a, dha, bha and
va, 2 for i, kha, ja, ḍha, na, ma and sha, 3 for u,
ga, jha, ta, pa, ya and śa, 4 for e, gha, ṭ a, tha,
pha, ra and sa, 5 for o, ca, ṭha, da, ba, la and ha.
38-39. Effects of Chesht etc. If the sub-state is
Drishti in an Avastha, the results, being stated for
the Avastha, will be medium, the effects will be
full in Chesht and negligible in Vichesht. The good
and bad effects of Grahas should be deciphered,
based on the strength and weakness of the Grahas. In
exaltation the Grahas reveal effects in a pronounced
manner, due to Avasthas.
40-51. Effects of Sūrya’s Avasthas. If Sūrya is
in Sayan Avastha, the native will incur digestive
deficiency, many diseases, stoutness of legs,
bilious vitiation, ulcer in the anus and heart
strokes; if in Upavesan, will suffer poverty, will
carry loads, will indulge in litigations, be
hard-hearted, wicked and will lose in his
undertakings; if is in Netrapani, will always be
happy, wise, helpful to others, endowed with prowess
and wealth, very happy and will gain royal favours;
if in Prakash, will be liberal in disposition, have
plenty of wealth, be a significant speaker in the
assembly, will perform many meritorious acts, be
greatly strong and endowed with charming beauty; if
in Gaman, will be disposed to live in foreign
places, be miserable, indolent, bereft of
intelligence and wealth, be distressed, due to fear
and will be short-tempered; if in Agaman, will be
interested in others’ wives, be devoid of his own
men, be interested in movements and skilful in doing
evil deeds, be dirty, ill-disposed and will be a
talebearer; if in Sabh, will be disposed to help
others, be always endowed with wealth and gems, be
virtuous, endowed with lands, new houses and robes,
be very strong, very affectionate to his friends and
very kindly disposed; if in Agam, will be
distressed, due to enemies, fickle-minded,
evil-minded, emaciated, devoid of virtuous acts and
intoxicated with pride; if in Bhojan, will
experience pains in joints, will lose money on
account of others’ females, will have strength,
declining off and on, be untruthful, will incur
head-aches, eat remnant food and will take to bad
ways; if in Nritya Lips, will be honoured by the
learned, be a scholar, will have knowledge of poetry
etc. and will be adored by kings on the earth; if is
Kautuk, will always be happy, will be endowed with
Vedic Knowledge and will perform Yagyas, will move
amidst kings, have fear from enemies, will be
charming-faced and be endowed with knowledge of
poetry; if in Nidr, will have a strong tendency
towards being drowsy, will live in foreign (distant)
places, will incur harm to his wife and will face
financial destruction. Sūrya in Upavesan will make
one an artisan, black in complexion, devoid of
learning and miserable. One will serve others. In
Netrapani there will be all kinds of happiness, if
Sūrya is in Putr, Dharm, Karm, or Yuvati. In other
Bhavas Netrapani of Sūrya will give eye diseases and
enmity with all. If Sūrya is in Prakash, the native
will be meritorious, religious and liberal, will
enjoy pleasures, be equal to a prince and will enjoy
the status of Kuber, the God of wealth. However, the
Prakash of Sūrya, placed in Yuvati, or Putr will
cause loss of the first child and will produce many
litigations. If Sūrya is in Gaman, the native will
incur disease of the feet and will be very mean. If
in Agaman, Sūrya in Vyaya, or in Yuvati will destroy
progeny and will give very limited wealth. If in
Agam, Sūrya will give many miseries, an ugly
appearance and foolishness. However, he will give
wealth. Sūrya in Bhojan in Dharm will cause many
hindrances to spiritual and religious undertakings.
In other Bhavas Sūrya in Bhojan will cause head and
ear diseases, apart from joint pains. Though
Maharishi Parashar states, that the native with
Sūrya in Kautuk Avastha will have fear from enemies,
Bal Bhadr exempts such evil effect for the Ari Bhava
position. Sūrya in Kautuk in other Bhavas will give
a number of daughters, two wives, itch, excellence,
liberality etc. If Sūrya is in Nidr, the native will
be predisposed to incur piles and elephantiasis,
will experience a lack of peace and he will be
liable to lose his first child.
52-63. Effects of Candr’s Avasthas. If Candr is
in Sayan, the native will be honourable, sluggish,
given to sexual lust and he will face financial
destruction; if in Upavesan, will be troubled by
diseases, be dull-witted, not endowed with
mentionable wealth, will be hard-hearted, will do
unworthy acts and will steal others’ wealth; if in
Netrapani, will be troubled by great diseases (long
lasting in nature), be very garrulous, wicked and
will indulge in bad deeds. Should Candr be in
Prakash, the native will be famous in the world,
will have his virtues exposed through royal
patronage, will be surrounded by horses, elephants,
females and ornaments, will visit shrines. If Candr
is in Gaman with decreasing rays, the native will be
sinful, cruel and always troubled by afflictions of
sight. If Candr is in Gaman with increasing rays,
the native will be distressed, due to fear. If Candr
is in Agaman, the native will be honourable, will
suffer diseases of the feet, will secretly indulge
in sinful acts, will be poor and devoid of
intelligence and happiness; if in Sabh, will be
eminent among men, honoured by kings and kings of
kings, will be very beautiful, will subdue the
passion of women and will be skilful in sexual acts,
will be virtuous; if in Agam, will be garrulous and
virtuous and, if the said Candr is of dark
fortnight, the native will have two wives, he will
be sick, highly wicked and violent; if in Bhojan,
will be endowed with honour, conveyances,
attendants, social status, wife and daughters,
provided Candr is Full ‘Purna’; if in Bhojan and is
of dark fortnight, auspicious effects will fail to
come; if in Nritya Lips and is endowed with
(fortnightly) strength, will be strong, will have
knowledge of songs and will be a critic of beauty of
things; if in Nritya Lips and of dark fortnight,
i.e. not endowed with strength, the person will be
sinful; if in Kautuk, the native will attain
kingship, lordship over wealth and skill in sexual
acts and in sporting with harlots. Should waxing
Candr, being yuti with Guru, be in Nidr, the native
will be quite eminent. If waxing Candr is in Nidr,
but devoid of Guru’s Yuti, the native will lose his
wealth on account of females and female jackals will
be crying around his abode (as though it were a
cemetery).
64 75. Effects of the Avasthas of Mangal. If
Mangal is in Sayan, the native will be troubled by
wounds, itch and ulcer. If Mangal is placed in
Upavesan, the native will be strong, sinful,
untruthful, eminent, wealthy and bereft of virtues.
If Mangal is placed in Lagn and happens to be in
Netrapani, there will be penury; if placed in other
Bhavas, Netrapani will confer rulership of a city.
Should Mangal be in Prakash, the native will shine
with virtues and will be honoured by the king.
Mangal in Prakash in Putr will cause loss of
children and of wife. If Mangal is in Prakash in
Putr and happens to be there with Rahu, a severe
(positional) fall will descend on the native. Should
Mangal be in Gaman, the native will be always
roaming, will have fear of multiple ulcers, will
incur misunderstandings with females, will be
afflicted by boils, itches etc. and will incur
financial decline. If Mangal happens to be in Agaman
Avastha, the native will be virtuous, endowed with
precious gems, will adore a sharp sword, will walk
with the gait of an elephant, will destroy his
enemies and will remove the miseries of his people.
If Mangal is placed in Sabh and happens to be in
exaltation, the native will be skilful in conducting
wars, will hold the flag of righteousness aloft and
will be wealthy; if Mangal happens to be in Sabh in
Putr, or Dharm, the native will be bereft of
learning; if Mangal is in Sabh in Vyaya,
childlessness and no wife and no friends will
result; if Mangal is in other Bhavas in Sabh, the
native will be a scholar in a king’s court (poet
laureate), be very wealthy, honourable and
charitable. If Mangal is in Agam, the native will be
devoid of virtues and good deeds, will be distressed
by diseases, will acquire diseases of the root of
the ears (‘Karan Mularogam’ & ‘Padamulam Urumulam’
etc.) and severe gout pains, will be timid and will
befriend evil lot. If Mangal is with strength, while
in Bhojan Avastha, the native will eat sweet-food;
if devoid of strength, will indulge in base acts and
be dishonourable. If Mangal is in Nritya Lips, the
native will earn wealth through the king and will be
endowed with fullness of gold, diamonds and corals
in his house; if in Kautuk, will be curious in
disposition and will be endowed with friends and
sons; if in Kautuk and simultaneously exalted, will
be honoured by the king and the virtuous and will be
virtuous himself; if in Nidr, will be
short-tempered, devoid of intelligence and wealth,
will be wicked, fallen from virtuous path and
troubled by diseases. Should Mangal be in Upavesan
in Lagn, the native will be extremely sinful and he
will incur several diseases, will be indigent and
not peaceful. If Upavesan occurs for Mangal in Dharm,
the native will lose his whole wealth apart from his
wife and progeny. Mangal in Netrapani in Lagn will
give poverty and will destroy the native’s wife and
progeny; if Mangal is in Netrapani in other Bhavas,
this confers on the native all kinds of wealth and
happiness from wife and children. The Dhan, or
Yuvati position of Mangal in Netrapani will cause
fear from lions and snakes apart from giving
earnings from lands. Furthermore the native’s wife
will predecease him. Should Mangal be in Prakash in
Putr, or in Yuvati, the native will lose his wife
and all children. If Mangal is placed in Putr in
Prakash and is yuti with Śani, the native will kill
cows. Should Mangal be in Gaman in Lagn, the native
will be active in his assignments, will incur
diseases of the joints, burning pains in the eyes
and will obtain dental afflictions and the like, he
will have fear from dogs and will adore the guise of
a female. In other Bhavas Mangal in Gaman will bring
royal favours, leadership and luxuries of life.
Mangal in Agaman will cause piles and diseases of
the rectum. If Mangal is in Bhojan, or in Sayan in
Putr, or in Randhr, there will be untimely death for
the native. In other Bhavas Bhojan of Mangal will
confer wealth. Should Mangal be in Nritya Lips and
happens to be in Lagn, Dhan, Yuvati, or Karm, the
native will receive all kinds of happiness; there
will be miseries in abundance, if Mangal is in
Nritya Lips and placed in Randhr, or Dharm, apart
from incurring untimely death. In other Bhavas
Nritya Lips of Mangal will make the native akin to
Kuber. Mangal in Yuvati, or in Dharm in Kautuk will
give several diseases and death of the first child
and wife. In other Bhavas Kautuk will confer
scholarship, various kinds of wealth, two wives and
more female children. In Nidr Mangal in Lagn, Dhan,
Sahaj, Dharm, Karm, or Labh will give scholarship,
foolishness and poverty. Putr, or Yuvati placement
of Mangal in Nidr will give many miseries and many
male children. Should Rahu join Mangal in Nidr in
any Bhava, the native will have many wives, be
miserable and will suffer from some diseases on the
surface of the feet.
76-86. Effects of Budh’s Avasthas. Should Budh in
Sayan be in Lagn, the native will be lame and will
have reddish eyes (like the black bee); if Budh is
in Sayan in other Bhavas, the native will be
addicted to licentious (disregarding certain rules)
pleasures and be wicked. If Budh is in Upavesan in
Lagn, the native will possess (the seven principle)
virtues; if Budh in Upavesan is in Lagn, receiving a
Drishti from a malefic, or Drishtis from malefics,
or is yuti with malefics, penury will result; if
Budh in Upavesan is in Lagn, receiving a Drishti
from a benefic, or Drishtis from benefics, or is
yuti with benefics, financial happiness will follow.
If Budh is in Netrapani, the native will be devoid
of learning, wisdom, well wishers and satisfaction,
but he will be honourable; if Budh is in Putr in
Netrapani, the subject will be bereft of happiness
from wife and sons, will be endowed with (more)
female children and will gain abundant finance
through royal patronage. If Budh is in Prakash, the
native will be charitable, merciful and meritorious,
he will cross the boundaries of ocean in respect of
many branches of learning, he will be endowed with
the great faculty of discrimination and will destroy
evil people; if in Gaman, will visit the courts of
kings on many occasions and Goddess Lakshmi will
dwell in his abode; if in Agaman, the same effects,
due to his being in Gaman, will fructify; if in Sabh
and happens to be in exaltation, will be affluent
and meritorious at all times, will be equal to Kuber,

physically lose on account of fear from the king,
will be fickle-minded and will be bereft of physical
and conjugal felicity; if in Nritya Lips, will be
endowed with honour, conveyances, corals (gems
etc.), sons, friends, prowess and recognition in
assembly, due to his scholarship; if Budh in Nritya
Lips Avastha is in a malefic’s Rashi, the native

licentious pleasures. If Budh is in Kautuk in Lagn,
the native will be skilful in music; if Budh is in
Yuvati, or Randhr with Kautuk, the native will be
addicted to courtezans; if Budh in Kautuk is placed
in Dharm, the native will be meritorious and attain
heavens after death. If Budh is in Nidr, the native
will not enjoy comfortable sleep, will be afflicted
by neck, or neck joint ‘Samadhi’ diseases, will be
devoid of co-born, afflicted by miseries galore,
will enter into litigations with his own men and
will lose wealth and honour.

99-110. Effects of Śukr’s Avasthas. If Śukr is in
Sayan, the native, although strong, will incur
dental disease, he will be very short-tempered,
bereft of wealth, will seek union with courtezans
and be licentious; if in Upavesan, will be endowed

Prakash in its own Rashi, in its exaltation Rashi,
or in a friendly Rashi, the native will sport, like

147. General Effects (up to Sloka 155). O
Brahmin, if a benefic Grah is in Sayan, there will
be benefic effects at all times, according to the
learned.
148. If a malefic is in Bhojan, everything will
be destroyed and there is no need of a second
thought.
149. Should a malefic in Yuvati be in Nidr,
auspicious effects will follow, provided, that there
is no Drishti from another malefic.
150. Declare without a second thought auspicious
effects, following the location of a malefic in Putr
Bhava, but only with Nidr, or in Sayan.
151. Untimely death, due to royal wrath, will
come to pass, if there is a malefic in Randhr Bhava
in Nidr, or in Sayan.
152. If in the case of a malefic in Randhr Bhava
in Nidr, or Sayan there happens to be a benefic
Drishti, or the Yuti of a benefic, (untimely) death
will be in the river Ganges, i.e. Gangetic belt,
shrines etc.
153. If there is a malefic in Karm in Sayan, or
Bhojan, the native will face many miseries on
account of his own deeds.
154. O excellent of the Brahmins, doubtlessly a
Raj Yog will come to pass, if Candr is in Karm in
Kautuk, or Prakash.
155. Thus the good and bad effects should be
guessed, assessing the strength and weakness of the
Grahas, concerning all the Bhavas.
