Chyuthi is Orbital Eccentricity. If the motion of the planet is circular, there
wont be any eccentricity. As it is elliptical, eccentricty has to be computed.
Its values range from 0 to 1 at Ellipse, 0 at Circle and 1 at Parabola ! Chyuthi Samskaram
in Indian Astronomy means to compute the eccentricity of the planet
and reduce the Mean Longitude of the Planet to its Heliocentric Longitude (
Vikshepa Vritteeya Manda Sphuta ).
