What these decide in a match
Rakshasa gana describes temperament. A match between two Deva-gana partners scores full marks; Deva with Rakshasa scores at or near nothing, and the direction matters — which side is which changes the score.
Aadi nadi is the classical veto. Two partners sharing a nadi score zero on that factor, and the calculator treats it as a dosha rather than as points lost, so the verdict reads “Not Recommended” however well the rest scored.
Deer yoni is scored against the other side’s animal on the classical 14×14 table, not as a same-or-different check.
A nakshatra is one factor among eight or ten, depending on the system used. No single one of them decides a match, and we do not present any of them as doing so.
