Sage
Parasara listed it as a conditional dasa applicable only in some charts. The conditions for its
applicability are highly controversial.
In this system, the sum of all dasas is 108 years. Ashtottari means ashtottara sata, i.e. one
hundred and eight. Because poornaayush (full life) of a man is 108 years, some scholars have
suggested that ashtottari dasa is best used as an ayur dasa, i.e. a dasa that shows longevity.
Some people use Ashtottari dasa as an ayur dasa and see longevity in it. Some other people
use Ashtottari dasa as a phalita dasa. Because only chara karakas, i.e. Rahu and the seven
planets, have dasas under the Ashtottari dasa scheme, it may also be suggested that it shows
events related to sustenance, achievements, raja yogas and moksha (just like chara karakas
do). Some people, however, prefer to see all matters in Ashtottari dasa.
