Jaimini Sutras

Jaimini Sutras, also known as Upadesa Sutras[1][2] is an ancient Sanskrit text on the predictive part of Vedic Astrology, attributed to the sage Jaimini, the founder of the Purva Mimamsa branch of Vedic philosophy, a disciple of Vyasa and grandson of Parashara.

Jaimini appears to have favoured Charadasha not only for determining longevity but also for predicting important events to happen during the life of a person.

Raman has found certain sutras tough, vague or capable of a two-fold interpretation.

The treatment of the different Bhavas, Rasis and Planets found confusing require patience, diligence and practice to comprehend.

Moreover, the exact meanings of the sutras which though short and sweet, and easily committed to memory, are not easy to grasp.
