Dwara & Bahya in

Jaimini Dasas
By
Iranganti Kalyan Raghavan,
India.

he editor of Saptarishis Astrology


wanted my revered father, Sriman
Iranganti Ranga Charya to write
on Dwara & Bahya for Saptarishis. But in
view of my fathers minor indisposition,
my father asked me to prepare a write-up
on it under his guidance.
Let me first do Padabhivandanam to my
father from whom I have been learning
astrology, and begin this write-up as
follows:

Kalyan Raghavan is the son of the


famous astrologer & scholar Iranganti
Rangacharya. Kalyan a shy introvert person
is a software professional based in
Hyderabad who has been learning Jaimini
astrology from his father from a very young
age. This is his debutant article for any
magazine and it is expected that he writes
100s of articles in Jaimini astrology with the
grace of his guru and father Shri Iranganti
Rangacharya.

The concept of Dwara-Bahya is found in


the Jaimini Sutras.


1 --
maline dvra bhye nave nidhana
dvra dvreayoca mlinye 2-1-27

2 --

daraye dvra tatastavatibha bhyam


2-4-2

So the rule of dwara-bahya is of use in not


only Ayurdasas but also in phalitha dasas.

Reckoning of Dwara-Bahya in the ayur


dasas like Hora dasa, Atmanadi dasa etc:
The dasa sign (in Hora dasa or Atmanadi
dasa etc) which begins is the Dwara and is

also the Bahya, the 2nd dasa sign is the dwara and its bahya is the 3rd sign, the 3rd
dasa sign is the Dwara and its Bahya is the 5th, the 4th dasa sign is the Dwara, and its Bahya
is the 7th, the 5th dasa sign is the Dwara and its Bahya is the 9th, the 6th dasa sign is the
Dwara, its Bahya is 11th. The same are the Bahya signs for the rest of the six Dwara dasa
signs.
If the dasa sign which begins is even, the dasa signs run reversely and the Bahya count is
reverse.
But a typical Dwara-Bahya count is recommended by Vriddhas to some phalitha dasas
which have padakrama order.


tadida caraparyya sthiraparyya dvayo trikoakhya day ca pka bhoga prakalpana

Padakrama Order:
Chara
If the dasasign which begins is cardinal (chara) and odd, the dasasigns succeed regularly
and directly, if it is cardinal and even, the dasasigns succeed reversely.
For example Aries begins, so the dasa signs are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo,
Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces and the Bahya signs are Aries(1),
Gemini(3), Leo(5), Libra(7), Sagittarius(9), Aquarius(11), Aries(1), Gemini(3), Leo (5), Libra
(7), Sagittarius (9), Aquarius (11) respectively.

Sthira
If the dasa sign which begins is fixed and odd, the dasa signs run in the order of every 6th
in the direct order. For example the dasa sign that begins is Leo. The dasa signs are Leo,
Capricorn, Gemini, Scorpio, Aries, Virgo, Aquarius, Cancer, Sagittarius, Taurus, Libra,
Pisces. Correspondingly the Bahya dasa signs are Leo (1), Gemini (11), Aries (9),
Aquarius (7), Sagittarius (5), Libra (3), Leo (1), Gemini (11), Aries (9), Aquarius (7)
Sagittarius (5), Libra (3).
If the dasasign is fixed and even, the dasa signs run reversely in the order of every 6th and
the Bahya signs run reversely in the order of 1, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3, 1, 11, 9, 7, 5, 3 dasasigns.

Dual
If the dasa sign that begins is a dual sign, the order of the dasa signs is 1, 5, 9 and if even it
is reversely in the order of 1, 5, 9. The Bahya signs are 1, 9, 6, 3, 11, 8, 1, 9, 6, 3, 11, and 8.

Let us see some examples on how to use this concept.

Chara Dasa (method-1 in Jaimini Sutramritam, page 263)


Chart 1: Birth Ascendant is Gemini (dual sign). So Charadasa begins from the birth
ascendant, Gemini. The dasa signs are Gemini, Libra, Aquarius, Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces,
Leo, Sagittarius, Aries Virgo, Capricorn, and Taurus.

----------------The padakrama order of the dasa signs and the Dwara-Bahya reckoning is same in all the Phalitha
dasas in the case of cardinal and fixed dasa signs which begin. But in the case of Charaparyaya dasa,
the order of the dasa signs varies from the dual sign to begin. So the Bahya(bhoga) also varies.
Let me illustrate the point in the Chart-2 below
Chart 2: Date of Birth: 12-9-1980 at 7-25 am. Birth Ascdt =Virgo

Chara Paryaya dasa begins from the Ascendant, Virgo which is a dual sign. Since it is even
too the dasa signs run reversely. The dasa signs from Virgo are Virgo, Gemini, Pisces,
Sagittarius, Leo, Taurus, Aquarius, Scorpio, Cancer, Aries, Capricorn, Libra. The Bahya
signs are respectively Virgo (1), Pisces (7), Virgo (1), Pisces (7), Cancer (3), Capricorn (9),
Cancer (3), Capricorn (9), Taurus (5), Scorpio (11), Taurus (5), and Scorpio (11).
Here let me cite a karika in respect of Dwara-Bahya (Paka-Bhoga) in general in respect of
Padakrama reckoning of the sign-dasas.

care tanu (1) ducikya (3) suta (5) asta (7) pit (9) lbhaga (11)
sthire lagna (1) aya (11) navama (9) jy (7) pacama (5) vikrama (3)
dvandvabhe tanu (1) dharma (9) ari (6) sahaja (3) upntya (11) radhrabha (8)
yugme vilomdojetu kramt syurbhya raya
In the case of Chara Paryaya dasa, the Dwara-Bahya reckoning differs from the dual sign to begin as
seen in the chart given above.
Similarly according to the order of the dasa signs of Sthira Paryaya dasa, the Dwara- Bahya dasa signs
could be written. However the results depend more on the Bahya dasa signs of the three phalitha dasas
viz. Trikona, Chara Paryaya, Sthira Paryaya Dasas.
