      I am very confused as to the practical implementation of these 2 terms PA and DA.

      I have a website  and i want to rank a particular page.

      So to rank it at the top, should i have more backlinks of page** or **more backlinks of my Homepage.

      Does more back links of a particular page improves only PA  or (PA & DA) both ?

          I would give the following a good read

          Domain Authority - http://moz.com/learn/seo/domain-authority

          Page Authority - http://moz.com/learn/seo/page-authority

          In summary:

          "Whereas Page Authority measures the predictive ranking strength of a single page, Domain Authority measures the strength of entire domains or subdomains."

          You need to focus on overall SEO, develop good quality links to your site (which is typically the homepage) and if you get a break you'll get some links to the directory your looking to link to which will further boost your directory.  don't focus on the directory and forget the rest of the site.
