Maharishi Parsara has stated that there are 5 Aprakash Grahas, 5 Upagrahas and Pranapada. These are only shadowy planets and have no body of their own. It is purely based on certain mathematical calculations which is also given by the rishi in his magnum Opus Brihat Parasara Hora Sastra. Their effects on the life of the native is also given exhaustively. Here I propose to take up only the Aprakash Grahas. As the name suggests these are grahas without light. They are the result of reaction of Sun and and the zodiac of 360 degrees which we call as Bha Chakra (Vishnu). I will come to that point later. Chapter 3 Slokas 61 to 64 gives formula for calculation of Non-luminous (Aprakash) Grahas. Verse 65 tells about the effects of these Sub-Grahas. Again a full chapter No. 25 is given for the effects of these Non-luminous Grahas.

Calculation Rules: 1. Add 4 Rasis 13 degrees and 20 minutes i.e. 133 degrees and 20 minutes to Sun’s longitude at a given moment which will give the position of Dhuma. Parasara qualifies Dhuma as ‘all inauspicious’. 2. Reduce Dhuma from 12 Rasis or 360 degrees to get the Vyatipata... According to the Rishi this is also inauspicious. 3. Add six Rasis or 180 degrees to Vyatipata to know the position of Parivesha. This is extremely inauspicious. 4. Deduct Parivesh from 12 Rasis or 360 degrees to arrive at the position of IndraChap (Indra Dhanush) who is also inauspicious. 5. Add 16 degrees 40 minutes to Chap, which will give Ketu (UpaKetu), who is a malefic. By adding a Rasi to UpaKetu, you get the original Longitude of Sun. This is just to verify whether the calculations have been done correctly. All these Grahas are malefics by nature and cause affliction.

Effects of Aprakash-Grahas: If one of these afflicts Sun, the native’s dynasty will decline. If Moon and Lagna respectively are associated with one of these, it will destroy the longevity and wisdom. In the Tamil version of Jatakalankaram Keeranur Nataraja gives dignities for these Aprakash Grahas. One exception to this rule: From Sun to Saturn no one is exalted in the above-mentioned Rasis nor debilitated in the above-mentioned Rasis. According to Jataka Parijata the lordship for aprakash grahas are: Mars - Dhuma Moon - Paridhi/Parivesha Venus - Kothanda/Indrachapa Rahu - Pata/Vyatipata Ketu - Upaketu Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. This rule is clearly explained many many years ago in the creation of Aprakash Grahas. Sun creates Dhuma by adding 133 degrees and 20 minutes. Why? This addition factor naturally falls in the 5th house of natural Zodiac-Leo which is the beginning of Bhuva Loka (Solar system).

To counteract this creation Vishnu created Vyatipata by deducting the Dhuma position from 360 degree. To show his opposition Sun created Parivesha (we add 180 degrees which is the opposing sign). Again Vishnu uses the zodiac of 360 degrees and deducts the Parivesha to create Indrachap. To bring it near to him Sun adds 16 degrees 40 minutes to Indrachap and creates Upaketu. (Earlier we added 13 degrees 20 minutes while creating Dhuma. The remaining parts of Leo rasi (30 degrees minus 13 degree 20 minutes gives 16 degree 40 minutes) is added by Sun here. Vishnu leaves it here as he sees that there are still 30 degrees left out to reach the Sun. An example Calculation will make things clear.

Dhuma means ‘smoke’ or a ‘meteor’. Sun’s Longitude + 133°20’ Dhuma burns things up. It is the negative burning fire of the Sun. Dhuma is the violent son of Mars.

Mars had two sons Mrityu and Dhuma. Mrityu indicates physical suffering and death while Dhuma indicates violence inflicted on others. Since Dhuma indicates the highest heat it simply burns up everything and leaves only smoke. Since he is the son of Mars, probably lordship of this aprakash graham is assigned to Mars.
