Kendradi and Drekkana Bala
Separate house-class strength from decanate/gender rules—and expose a source disagreement.
Kendradi gives 60 in Kendras, 30 in Panapharas and 15 in Apoklimas under the whole-sign house profile used by this course.
Published teaching tables disagree on the female/neutral ordering for Drekkana Bala. The lab therefore offers two explicit profiles instead of silently picking one forever.
Changing the profile changes only the Drekkana sub-component, so the student can see exactly what the source choice affects.
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.
