The avasthas table on your chart gives every planet an age, from Bala the infant to Mrita, and a share of its results. How the five Baladi states are worked out, why the order reverses in even signs, what the strength percentages mean, why eight Atmakarakas in ten are Bala or Mrita, why every gandanta planet is Bala, why an exalted planet can be Mrita, the other avastha systems, timing, and two charts from practice.
Every planet has one house where it is directionally strongest and one where it has no directional strength at all. Where each planet gains digbala and why, how often it happens, what full strength and no strength mean in practice, why a digbala planet always sits in a kendra and often forms a Mahapurusha yoga, the Sun at noon and birth time, how digbala feeds into Shadbala, timing, and two charts from practice.
Shadbala adds six kinds of strength into one figure for each planet: position, direction, time, motion, natural rank and aspect. What each strength measures, how rupas and virupas work, the minimum each planet needs, why retrograde planets score high, why two programs can give different totals for the same chart, how to read the numbers without over-reading them, and two charts where Shadbala and dignity pointed in different directions.
Ashtakavarga scores every sign of the chart with bindus, benefic points contributed by the seven planets and the lagna, and it is the most practical tool in Parashari astrology for judging transits. How the bindus are counted, each planet’s fixed total, what a good Sarvashtakavarga score is, why the 11th house usually scores highest and the 7th and 12th lowest, how to read a transit by its bindus, kakshya timing within a sign, and two charts where the bindus explained a transit.
