Sudarshana Chakra (BPHS ch. 74): one chart read from lagna, Moon and Sun

get_sudarshana_chakra

Parashari, not KP. The Sudarshana Chakra of Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra ch. 74 (Santhanam; ch. 75 in Sharma): three rings of twelve whole-sign bhavas counted from the lagna, from the Moon's sign and from the Sun's sign (vv. 4-6), each bhava judged by the majority of benefic over malefic influences among its occupants and the planets aspecting it by graha drishti, with the lord counting for advancement (vv. 10-14), the Sun taken benefic in a ring's first bhava and malefic elsewhere and an exalted malefic exempted (v. 9). The composite reports, bhava by bhava, whether the three rings AGREE, as a word and never as a score. THE GATE IS APPLIED: vv. 19-20 say the chakra is to be used only when the Sun, the Moon and the lagna are in three different signs, otherwise 'the judgment of effects should be made from the Rasi Kundali only'; 'applicable' and its reason are returned and the rings are still shown. Also returns the Sudarshana dasha of vv. 21-26 (each bhava a year in turn from the first, twelve repeating, and a month within the year) for 'at', defaulting to now, with the assessment lists the verses give for the year-lagna. Names what is NOT applied: the v. 13 strength tie-break (no sourced Parashari strength exists in the engine, see F047), the vv. 15-16 saptavarga modulation, and the vv. 27-28 Ashtakavarga cross-check. This is the closest thing Parashari has to a convergence procedure and is the candidate for the panel's Parashari column. Edition stated. Gates no KP verdict.

Birth data

This tool requires birth data on every call. The MCP server is stateless, so calling set_birth_profile first validates the data and returns the reading plan, but it does not store anything. Repeat the same five fields here.
