BPHS Purvayoni method
Follow the traditional Sun–Moon and Drekkana rule shown in Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra. Supply the stronger luminary; we calculate its D3 sign, sign lord, and source-labeled loka indication.

Calculate from birth details
Birth details calculate the D1 and D3 positions. The Sun-or-Moon choice must come from a trusted Shadbala report.
Birth details are sent by a private no-store request, not placed in the page URL, and not added to an account. The downloadable card omits them.
Map the ruler of the selected luminary's D3 sign—not the selected luminary itself unless it also happens to rule that sign.
| D3 sign ruler | Traditional result |
|---|---|
| Jupiter | DevalokaA deva or celestial realm |
| Venus or Moon | PitrlokaThe ancestral realm |
| Sun or Mars | MrityulokaThe mortal or human realm |
| Mercury or Saturn | Lower realmNaraka or another lower/inferior realm in the visible commentary |
The visible passage says to use whichever of the Sun and Moon is stronger, but it does not define the comparison method in the excerpt. The reel presenter operationalizes ‘stronger’ through Shadbala.
Destiny Unfolds does not calculate Shadbala in this public tool because the app's current routine is explicitly simplified. You supply which luminary trusted software reports as stronger; the calculator then performs the D3 and loka steps transparently.
A Hindi edition of Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, page 344, section ‘Purvayoni ka Gyan’ (Knowledge of the Previous Birth), verses 115–116 in the visible edition.
The edition, translator, volume, chapter number, publisher, and ISBN are not visible in the reel, so this page does not invent those bibliographic details.
Watch the original reel Read the source walkthroughSupply which is stronger in Shadbala, the Sun or Moon. The calculator finds that luminary’s sign in the classical D3/Drekkana chart, takes the ruler of that D3 sign, and applies the visible source table.
The visible BPHS excerpt says to use whichever luminary is stronger but does not define the method there. The reel presenter uses Shadbala. This tool therefore asks you to supply the result from trusted Jyotish software instead of presenting an approximate strength score as classical Shadbala.
No. It is a traditional Jyotish classification for reflection, not empirical proof of reincarnation, a verified previous-life biography, or a judgment of spiritual worth.
