Phaladeepika
दस्ःअपहारादिककालचक्रे वाक्यानि दस्रादिपदादिजानि । दक्ष्यामि वर्णैर्नवभिर्भमानै राशीशवर्षैः परमायुरत्र ॥ ४॥
In this Kalachakra system consisting of Dasas, Apaharas, etc, I shall now expound the formulas for the several Nakshatra padas from Aswini onwards. Every such formula consists of nine syllables indicating by their number (as per Katapayadi Mnemonics) the particular Rasyapaharas composing the Dasa of the Nakshatrapada under consideration, and consequently the total life-period appertaining thereto by means of the years allotted to the several Rasi owners.
