The Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra (IAST: ') (abbreviated to BPHS) is a foundational compilation of Indian astrology, or ''hora''.〔from Greek , although the BPHS (4.1-2) states that the word originates from ''ahorātra'' "day and night" after dropping its first and the last syllable.〕 ==Origins== The Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra is the most comprehensive extant work on natal astrology in Hindu astrology ascribed to any Rishi or sage according to the text itself. Its oldest printed version is a composite work of 71 chapters, in which the first part (chapters 1-51) dates to the 7th and early 8th centuries, and the second part (chapters 52-71) dates to the latter part of the 8th century (). A commentary by Govindasvamin (a mathematician) on the second portion, which presupposes the first, is dated to c. 850 CE and attests to the scope of the work at that date (). The text says that this work was created by Sage Parashara, father of Vedavyasa who was the compiler of the Epic Mahabharata for the benefit of Kaliyuga. An English translation was published by N.N. Krishna Rau and V.B. Choudhari in 1963, in two volumes.〔Pingree, pp.86-87〕
