Methodology
Same birth details, same chart.
The AI explains. It never calculates. Ask a general chatbot for your kundli and it may guess a different lagna each time. Purohit's charts, dashas and muhurtas come from a dedicated calculation engine (Lahiri ayanamsa, whole-sign houses, mean nodes), so the same birth details always give the same chart. Purohit Ji reads those finished numbers and explains them; the explanation is AI and can be wrong, so check the chart against any panchang you trust.
-
Calculated
The engine computes planets, houses, dashas and doshas from your date, time and place of birth.
-
Classical rule
Each finding is read against classical texts such as Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, naming the house, planet and period so you can check the reasoning.
-
Explanation
Purohit Ji, an AI, explains what it means in your language. It can be wrong, and it says so when a question goes beyond what a chart can answer.
Worked example
See how an answer is built
A test chart, not a real person: 1 January 2000, 12:00, New Delhi. Every value below comes from Purohit's calculation engine.
Settings: sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsa (23.857° on this date), whole-sign houses, mean nodes. Time zone: IST (UTC+5:30). New Delhi: 28.61° N, 77.21° E.
1Calculated chart values
- Lagna (ascendant)
- Pisces (Meena) 13°11', Uttara Bhadrapada pada 3
- Moon
- Libra (Tula) 16°42', Swati pada 4, house 8
- Sun
- Sagittarius (Dhanu) 16°16', Purva Ashadha pada 1, house 10
- Mars
- Aquarius (Kumbha) 3°55', Dhanishta pada 4, house 12, house 5 from the Moon
2The traditional rule applied
Mangal dosha (Manglik): Mars in house 1, 2, 4, 7, 8 or 12, counted from the lagna and separately from the Moon. Purohit applies the widest list: North Indian practice leaves out house 2 and South Indian practice leaves out house 1. Cancellations the engine applies: Mars in its own sign (Mesha, Vrischika) or exalted (Makara).
Engine result: Manglik from the lagna (Mars in house 12), not from the Moon (Mars in house 5). No cancellation applies, because Mars is in Kumbha.
3The AI explanation and its limitations
Mars sits in the 12th house from your lagna, so by the house rule this chart counts as Manglik, and every regional list includes the 12th. Counted from your Moon, Mars is in the 5th, which is not a dosha house, so the dosha shows from one reference only.
This explanation is written by an AI and can be wrong. Manglik is a traditional pattern, not a prediction about a marriage. You can check the calculation against any panchang set to the Lahiri ayanamsa.
One sky, three chart styles
The same example chart, drawn the way North, South and East Indian families read it.
Read your chart the way your family does: South, North or East Indian style. It is the same sky.
On request, Purohit also draws your D9, the marriage chart, a deeper map used for relationships, and your D10, the career chart, both in the same three styles, plus your Ashtakavarga, the classical point-strength map, and KP-style timing windows that answer when, not just what.

How your chart is calculated
A dedicated engine computes the chart; Purohit Ji, an AI, only explains the finished numbers.
- Sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsa, whole-sign houses and mean nodes, in the Parashari tradition.
- Computed fresh from your date, time and place of birth, never looked up from a table.
- Same birth details, same chart: check it against any panchang you trust.
