Chapter 15
Pravarajya yoga
Sloka 1: When there are four or more powerful planets in one house, the persons
born will become Sakya, Aajivika, Bikshu, Vriddha, Chakra, Nirgrantha and
Vanyasana, when Mahaya, Gnya, Guru, Kshapakara, Sita, Prabhakari and Ina are
powerful respectively. The pravrajya yogas are determined by the most powerful
planets. When these planets have suffered a defeat, the person will renounce
pravrajya afterwards Sloka 2: If powerful pravrajya-causing planets are in
combust with Sun, then the persons born won’t take up sanyasa but will greatly
worship those who have embraced sanyasa. If the yogakaraka and defeated planets
are aspected by other planets, the person would be making an application for
diksha Sloka 3: When janmesha isn’t aspected by other planets but aspects
Saturn, or when Saturn aspects a weak janmesha or if Moon is in Saturn’s
Drekkana and occupies the amsa of Saturn or Mars and has saturnine aspect, the
person will have diksha Sloka 4: If Jupiter, Moon and lagna are aspected by
Saturn, and if Jupiter is in the 9th, the persons born would be a king who’d
write on shastras or sciences. If 9th is occupied by Saturn unaspected by any
planet, the person will become a dikshita when he’s born in rajayoga Index
