Mantreswara's Phaladeepika has multiple methods to determine longevity. Let us debate and discuss which method is more useful as one or methods seem to contradict other.What astrological principles in the seven fold method could Mantreswara have used while arriving at below methods of longevity in PhaladeepikaMethod 1:Find out if the following 3 pairs of planets are mutualy friends, neutrals or enemies:—(a) The lord of the sign in which the Moon is posited and the lord of the 8th house from the Moon sign.(b) The lord of the Lagna and the lord of the 8th house.© The lord of the Lagna and the Sun.The native will enjoy Deerghayu if they are mutually friends. He will have Madhyayu if they are mutually neutrals and will have Alpayu if they are mutually enemies.Method 2:The native will be longlived (enjoy Deerghayu) if —(1) The lord of the Lagna be stronger than the lord of the 8th house,(2) The lord of the rising

Navamsa be stronger than the lord of the 8th from Navamsa Lagna,(3) If the lord of the sign occupied by the Moon be stronger than the lord of the 8th from the Moon,(4) If the lord of the Moon's Navamsa be stronger than Ihe lord of the 8th from it.If otherwise, the reverse will be the result.Method 3:Note the following 3 pairs (A) the decanate signs of the Lagna and the Moon. (B) the Navamsa signs of the lord of the Lagna and lord of the sign occupied by the Moon and © the Dwadasasma signs of the lord of the Lagna and of the lord of the 8th house.The life of the child should be pronounced as Deergha, Madhya and Alpa according as (a) when one of the signs in the said 3 pairs is a moveable sign and the other is a moveable fixed or dual sign, (b) when one of the signs is fixed and the other is a dual, moveable or fixed sign and © when one of the signs is a dual sign and the other is a fixed, dual or moveable sign respectively.A
