Mathematical consideration for evaluation of Drishtis:

BPHS (English Translation)

Ch. 26. Evaluation of Drishtis of Grahas

 

1. O Glorious, it is said, that Drishtis (of Grahas) and their strengths are to

be known in deciding the effects. How many kinds are these? Please clarify

doubts.

 

2-5. Drishtis of the Grahas. O Brahmin, I have earlier stated Drishtis, based on

Rashis. The other kind is between Grahas, which I detail below. 3rd and 10th,

5th and 9th, 4th and 8th and lastly 7th. On these places the Drishtis increase

gradually in slabs of quarters, i.e ¼, ½, ¾ and full. The effects will also be

proportionate. All Grahas give a Drishti to the 7th fully. Śani, Guru and

Mangal have special Drishtis, respectively, on the 3rd and the 10th, the 5th and

the 9th and the 4th and the 8th. The ancient preceptors have explained these,

which ordinary. By subtle mathematical calculations these Drishtis will have to

be clearly understood, as under.

 

6-8. Evaluation of the Drishtis of the Grahas. Deduct the longitude of the Grah

(or Bhava), that receives a Drishti, from that of the Grah, which gives the

Drishti. If the sum exceeds six Rashis, deduct the sum again from 10 Rashis.

Convert the latter sum into degrees and divide by two. The resultant product is

Drishti Kona (or aspectual angle). If the difference is in excess of 5 Rashis,

ignore the Rashis and multiply the degrees etc. by 2, which is the value of the

Drishti. If the difference is in excess of 4 Rashis, deduct it from 5 Rashis,

and the resultant degees etc. become the Drishti value. If the difference is in

excess of 3 Rashis, deduct it from 4 Rashis and (increase 30 by) halve the

product to get the Drishti value. If the difference is above 2 Rashis, ignore

the Rashis and add 15 to the degrees etc. to get the Drishti value. If it is in

excess of one Rashi, ignore the Rashis and divide the degrees by 2 to get the

Drishti value.
