Even with numerous powerful yogas in a horoscope, they manifest only when the correct Time (Dasha) arrives. Maharishi Parashara declared the Vimsottari Dasha system as the most standard and effective for the current age (Kali Yuga). It consists of a total cycle of 120 years.

How to Calculate the Starting Dasha?

The Dasha at the time of birth is determined by the **Janma Nakshatra** (Moon's Nakshatra). For example, if a child is born in **Bharani Nakshatra** (ruled by Venus), their life begins with the **Venus Dasha**. The sequence then follows the exact order mentioned in the table above.
