The manuscripts of these texts exist in slightly different versions, present Shani's motion in the skies, but vary in their data, suggesting that the text were open and revised over their lives. Other texts such as Surya Siddhanta dated to have been complete sometime between the 5th century and 10th century present their chapters on various planets as divine knowledge linked to deities. These texts present Shani as one of the planets and estimate the characteristics of the respective planetary motion. Shani as a planet appears in various Hindu astronomical texts in Sanskrit, such as the 5th century Aryabhatiya by Aryabhatta, the 6th-century Romaka by Latadeva and Pancha Siddhantika by Varahamihira, the 7th century Khandakhadyaka by Brahmagupta and the 8th century Sisyadhivrddida by Lalla. He married twice, first being Neela, the personification of the Blue Sapphire gemstone and the second being Manda, a Gandharva princess. He also signifies spiritual asceticism, penance, discipline, and conscientious work. Shani is the controller of longevity, misery, sorrow, old age, discipline, restriction, responsibility, delays, ambition, leadership, authority, humility, integrity, and wisdom born of experience. He is the god of Karma (deeds), justice, and retribution and delivers results depending upon one's thoughts, speech, and deeds ( karma). Shani is also a male Hindu deity in the Puranas, whose iconography consists of a black figure carrying a sword or danda (sceptre) and sitting on a Crow. And Krishna tells himself that he is Shani among planets in Brahma Vaivarta Purana. He is believed to be incarnation of krishna.
