ided, it should be noted that the sub divisions are NOT uniform. They vary and t
he rationale for the variance is the time period ruled by the particular planet
in the vimshottari dasha system. Thus, Ketu who governs 7 years in the 120 year
vimshottari dasha system rules for 0 degrees, 46 minutes and 40 seconds in any n
akshatra. Therefore, each planet rules a sub division in proportion to the perio
d it rules in the vimshottari dasha system.
This argument seems to make the most sense, because even if we examine the vimsh
ottari dasha system closely, we actually see that, there are, not only mahadasha
s, but more minute sub divisions extending all the way to sookshma dashas. All t
hese are determined by the position of the moon with respect to the nakshatra it
occupies. What the great professor did was extend this logic to all planets, th
us inventing a system complete with logic, reasoning and ancient wisdom.
