Uchcha Bala
Measure angular distance from the exact debilitation point on a 0–60 Virupa scale.
The engine finds the planet’s exact debilitation point, folds the angular distance to 0–180°, and divides by three.
At exact debilitation the value is 0; at the diametrically opposite exaltation point it is 60.
This is degree-sensitive. Merely occupying the exaltation sign does not automatically give a perfect 60.
Shadbala is a component system, not one magical number. Read each Bala separately and ask what dimension it measures before looking at any sum.
This course intentionally labels unvalidated components as pending. A partial audit sum must never be renamed “full Shadbala”; transparency is more important than completing a table with uncertain formulas.
How to read it
- Select one of the seven classical planets.
- Read each available Bala component separately.
- Open its sub-component audit where provided.
- Note source-profile choices such as Drekkana Bala.
- Do not compare a partial audit sum with a classical full-Shadbala threshold.
Key points
- 60 Virupas = 1 Rupa.
- Different Bala components measure different dimensions.
- Pending components remain visibly pending.
Do not convert the current partial Shadbala audit into a definitive “strong/weak planet” ranking.
Apply this lesson to a chart
- Open Shadbala Lab and choose one planet.
- Explain what Sthana, Dig, Naisargika and Drik Bala each measure.
- Identify which components are still withheld and why that matters.
