होरायास्तु दशाध्याय्यां व्याख्यायां क्रियतां श्रमः -दैवज्ञेन विशेषेण फलमादेष्टुमिच्छता --दशाध्याय्यां विशेषेण श्रमो नैव कृतो यदि -दुष्करः फलनिर्देशस्तद्विदाञ्च तथा वचः --अदृष्ट्वा यो दशाध्यायीं फलमादेष्टुमिच्छति -इच्चत्येव समुद्रस्य तरणं स प्लवं विना ---Prashnamarga, Chapter 1, Shlokas 30, 31 & 32An astrologer who wants to excel in predictions should study the Dasadhyayi commentary of Brihajjataka with special emphasis. The scholars who have a deep understanding of the Dasadhyayi say that it would be difficult to make correct predictions without a thorough study of the Dasadhyayi. One, who tries to make predictions without looking into the Dasadhyayi, would be like a person trying to cross an ocean without a boat.For a keen reader, the words referred above from Prashnamarga about the Dasadhyayi would not appear to be an exaggeration when the hitherto unknown deeper meanings of the Brihajjataka Shlokas become revealed before the eyes. The reasons behind the celebrated status and fame of the Kerala school of Jyotisha becomes clear when the reader goes through the ingenuous way the commentator has shown the application of various Shlokas of Brihajjataka.This commentary is not a mere theoretical discourse on the Jyotisha principles. Revealing his practical approach, Sri Govinda Bhattattiri has shown the way to interconnect different Shlokas within the text of Brihajjataka and also from other treatises. Further, the efficacy of the Dasadhyayi is also proven by real-life experiences.
