Vedic kundali matching (gun milan) explained — the 36 gunas, mangal dosha rules, and how compatibility scoring works before marriage.
| Koota | Gunas | What it weighs |
|---|---|---|
| Varna | 1 | Spiritual compatibility of the varnas |
| Vashya | 2 | Mutual influence and control |
| Tara | 3 | Health and well-being of both |
| Yoni | 4 | Instinct and intimacy |
| Graha Maitri | 5 | Mental friendship (Moon lords) |
| Gana | 6 | Temperament match |
| Bhakoot | 7 | Emotional and family harmony |
| Nadi | 8 | Health, progeny, constitution |
24/36 or above with a clean Mangal Dosha check is traditionally considered a strong match.
