Dana Yoga as described in Sarvartha Chintamani - An example chart


A sloka from Sarvartha Chintamani written by Sri Venkatesa Daivagna describes Dana Yoga as follows:
दानाधिपेन संदृष्टे लग्ने तन्नायकेपिवा !
तस्मिन् केन्द्र त्रिकोणस्थे महादानकारो भवेत् !!
Meaning : If the Ninth lord aspects the lagna or the lagna lord and is in a Kendra or a trikona the native will be a great Donor

Below given is an example chart of  my father.
He is involved in charity for the last 18 years. He runs a charitable trust which awards scholarships to about 300 students each year.

In the chart, we can see the Ninth Lord Jupiter posited in the fifth house,a trikona and aspecting both the Lagna and the lagna lord.

The Charitable trust has been established in the year 1996 when the native is running the dasa-antardasa of Moon-Jupiter. Moon is the lagna lord placed in the Ninth house and Jupiter is the Ninth lord aspecting the dasa lord Moon and also the lagna.!!!
