Essence of Division

 Let us come straight to the point of our discussion which is 'division'. You must be wondering what is the use of division and why it is the first chapter of this book.We must take a circle to understand this topic. Let us take a circle and divide the circumference of the circle into 20 parts. Attach a weight to each part of the circle. The different part of the circle has the following weights attached to it.

4, 1, 3, 7, 10, 6, 4, 2 , 1, 3, 8, 5, 3, 5, 7, 1, 2, 9, 3, 5.

Group the divisions of the circle into different groups. The number of groups which will be created will depend on the number of divisions we group as one.We must group such that all the divisions are used once and no overlapping happens when we complete the groups.

This can be done by taking the factors of 20. 

The factors of 20 are 1, 2, 4, 5.

If we divide 20 with two divisions as one group then we have 10 groups.

Similarly of 4 we have 5 groups. Of 10 we have 2 groups.

The weights of each group when the group has 2 divisions.

4+1, 3+7, 10+6, 4+2 , 1+3, 8+5, 3+5, 7+1 , 2+9, 3+5.

5,10,16,6,4,13,8,8,11,8

Similarly, we find the weight when the group has 4 divisions.

4+1+3+7, 10+6+4+2 , 1+3+8+5, 3+5+7+1 , 2+9+3+5.

15, 22, 17, 16, 19

Some group has more weight and some has less when we found the weight of each group by adding the weights. This circle is most powerful when we use the groups positively. We use the group which has more weight attached to it.

This type of grouping is most prominent in astrology. In astrology the sky is divided into 12 divisions and our ancestors have found out which part of the sky is helpful for which aspect of our life.

The sky is also divided into 27 nakshatras and it is based on the path of the moon. If the creatures on Earth are affected by moon and similarly they are affected by the nakshatras. The presence of the moon in front of a specific nakshatra will affect the behaviour of the nakshatra. This will increase or decrease a specific  aspect of the nakshatra or change the behaviour of it.
