Jaimini Essentials: Karakas & Arudhas · Gurukul Plus

Capstone: Five Points, One Chart

Read the AK, AmK, DK, AL and UL together, and stop where the evidence stops.

This chapter is part of Gurukul Plus

The foundational curriculum — grahas, rashis, bhavas, nakshatras, dashas and how to read a chart with them — is free to read here and free to practise in the app. Jaimini Essentials: Karakas & Arudhas is one of the advanced chapters, and its teaching text comes with Plus.

Plus is ₹1,999 a year, paid once. Nothing auto-renews. It opens every advanced chapter and raises your saved charts from one to four, so you can work on family charts alongside your own.

Writing up your experience in the community earns Plus days too — see the subreddit.

Terms introduced here

Reading Jaimini points without over-reading: Each point is one witness. Count agreement across both systems, flag fragile assignments, and never read looks, dates or verdicts from a single karaka.
Chara karakas: Roles assigned per chart by degree within the sign. The graha furthest through its sign is the Atmakaraka; Rahu is counted backwards.
Computing an arudha pada: Count from the house to its lord, count the same again from the lord; if that lands on the house or its 7th, take the 10th from there.
Jaimini as its own system: The same chart read with different machinery: sign aspects, variable karakas and arudhas. Use it alongside Parashari rules, not mixed into them.
