Is taking sankalpa for protection and karmic repentance for enemies a good idea?

So apparently there are some hidden enemies who are defaming me, my dad & our business. Asking for protection is always fine but is requesting a karmic slap for enemies a good thing to do assuming we don't take any names in the sankalpa? There shouldn't be anymore karmic knots being tied.

I'm not planning to take this sankalpa as of now because the issue is currently being taken care of and this is for future use only.

Why is ananda the nature of brahman?

Why is brahman's own nature of ananda? It is a "good" experience. Why is the ultimate, the most subtle, that without a form be a good feeling instead of nothing? Why does awareness lead to ananda instead of nothing?

Are dashas more important than placements?

Let's say that the grahas are mostly in a better place. No afflictions, benefic aspects from jupiter, benefice in kendra, etc but a person would be entering their rahu / Saturn / ketu mahadasha. So would the dasha lord have a greater influence over the native?

Which one among these would be a better match for me?

The first is my chart. (Male)

I am in talks with two girls for an arrange marriage but I want to know which one would be a better match for me.

Girl 1: Second Image

She has most of her grahas exalted. I am a little worried about her sun being exalted as that would make her extremely stubborn. Also does her Venus being in 8th house make relationship with her very secretive/corrupt?

Girl 2: Third Image

Looks wise this girl is a little better than girl 1. The main concern with her is Saturn is combust badly (2 degree apart). Although lagna lord and seventh lord are present in 11th house the 11th lord is in 12th house conjunct Mars; Does this imply financial drain? Now her yogkaraka mars is debilitated in 12th cancer. Plus her moon itself is in 6th house capricorn dhanishta. I see that this is a vepreet raj yog (12th -> 6th) but still is moon in 6th an issue?

Please help me understand and make a choice. If you see any other pattern then kindly tell.

Navratri Sadhana Timing: Anytime during the day or within specific tithi?

So pratipada starts today (14 July 2026) at 3:12 PM and lasts upto 15 July 11:50 AM. Since it hits bhramamuhurta tomorrow does this mean that we can do sadhana anytime tomorrow or should we do it within 3:12 PM to next day 11:50 AM? Please guide me on the timing.

Also, I do sadhana in evening some time after eight. Does this mean I'd have to start today itself or is it fine to start tomorrow?

I am doing upasana of 3 soumya deities + bhairava as part of my nitya sadhana. I invest most of my free time into doing my nitya sadhana. Can I just ask my soumya deities to accelerate my spiritual path?

If it is necessary to worship ugra devtas then I'd have to reduce my time with my soumya deities as I dont have much free time. It would be a little difficult for me to do that as I very dearly love my deities and they love me back (I feel their love and bliss occasionally). 

Thank You
