·॥ श्रीगणेशाय नमः॥ श्रीपतिपद्धतिः प्रथमोऽध्यायः। नत्वा तां गुरुदेवतां त्रिसमयज्ञानोद्गतेः कारणं तत्पादाम्बुरुहप्रसादविकसद्धोधो बुधः श्रीपतिः । शिष्यप्रार्थनया विचार्य सकलान् होरागमार्थान्मुहु- वक्ष्ये जातककर्मपद्धतिमहं होराविदां प्रीतये ॥ १॥ SLOKA. 1. Having bowed to that Divinity that is adored in the form of my preceptor and is the cause of the dawn of knowledge to me of the three periods (past, present and future), and having my intellect expanded in consequence by the graciousness of his lotus-feet, I, Sripathy Budha, am going to set forth, at the solicitation of my pupils, the method of working out horoscopes --being equipped for the task by my repeated and thorough study of the end and aim of all the authoritative works on astrology and hoping to win the approbation of those that are masters of astrological science. ज्ञेयोऽत्र प्रथमं हि जन्मसमयश्छायादियत्रैः स्फुट- स्तत्कालप्रभवा विलग्नसहिताः कार्यास्ततश्च ग्रहाः । सिद्धान्तोक्तपरिस्फुटोपकरणैस्ते चासकृत्कर्मणा भावाः खेटदृशो बलानि च ततस्तेषां विचार्याणि षट् ॥२॥ SLOKA. 2. The exact time of the birth of a person as revealed by the gnomonic shadow and other *apparatus should * The instruments in use in the time of Bhâskaracharya are mentioned in his Siddhanta Siromani. गोलो नाडीवलयं यष्टिः शङ्खर्घटीचक्रम् । चापं तुर्य फलकं धीरेकं पारमार्थिकं यत्रम् ॥

·श्रीपतिपद्धतिः first be ascertained. Then the planets should be set down as they are at the time of birth together with the rising sign. They are to be rectified repeatedly by an operation to be performed by means of expedients for finding their true place as prescribed in the Siddhantas. Then the bhâvas, the aspects of the planets and their six kinds of strength should be investigated. मध्याह्नांशुमतोर्य एव विवरः कालः स उक्तो नतः सोप्यभ्राग्निपरिच्युतो रविनिशामध्यान्तरे चोन्नतम् । मध्याह्वात्पतिते तु वासरगते स्यात्माकपाले नतं जातेहि द्युदलोनिते पुनरिदं प्रत्यकपाले भवेत् ॥३॥ SLOKA. 3. The interval between midday and the time of day which the position of the Sun indicates is called 7a (meridian-distance). When this time is subtracted from 30 ghatikas the remainder is called 599 which represents the interval between the Sun i. e. the particular time of day chosen and midnight. If the time of day being less than midday, be subtracted from it, the interval denotes argaa or meridian distance towards the East. If the particular time of day taken be greater than midday, the latter has to be subtracted from the former; the interval represents that or meridiandistance towards the West. रात्रेः शेषे गते वा भवति हि समये जन्म चेत्तद्धटीभिः संयुक्ते वासरार्दु खलु नतघटिकाः प्राक्प्रतीच्यो भवेयुः । संस्थाप्ये ते त्वनष्टे स्फुटसवितुरतः स्वोदयैरिष्टकालात लग्नं कुर्यात्सषनं तदपि सुगुणकैरस्तलग्नं निरुक्तम् ॥ ४॥ SLOKA. 4. If there be a birth towards the conclusion of a night or some time after its commencement, the residue of the night joined to the half-day that is to come, and the elapsed portion of the night increased by the half-day that is past, represent respectively the Eastern (प्राक्) and the Western (प्रत्यक्) nathas (aa) or the distances from the meridian. These results are to be preserved for future use. Then the Lagna or the rising sign is to be marked out for the time of birth conformab- ·प्रथमोऽध्यायः । 8 ly to the actual position of the Sun and the rising periods of the signs at the place of birth. And that increased by six signs is declared by correct reckoners to be the rest or setting sign. लकोदयैः पूर्वनतादृणाख्यं प्रत्यग्नतात्तच्च भवेद्धनाख्यम् । लग्नं तदूचुः खलु मध्यलग्नं षड्भाधिकं तच रसातलाख्यम् ॥५॥ SLOKA. 5. What people call मध्यलग्न .. e. the culminating point of the Ecliptic is deduced from the Eastern a conformably to the rising periods of the signs in the Equator by a process termed ऋण or negative (i. e. in the reverse order ). The same is deduced from the Western 7 by means of an additive process (धन-positive). This when increased by six signs becomes the fourth or the Nadir Sign. लग्नं चतुर्थाद्धिबुकं कलत्राद्यामित्रभं मध्य विलग्नतश्च । खभं विलग्नाच विशोध्य शेषं तत्र्यंशमेकं द्विगुणं निदध्यात् ॥६॥ लग्नाम्बुजामित्रनभोगृहेषु तदन्तरालोद्भवभावसिद्ध्यै । सिद्ध्यन्ति भावा द्विगुणाः षडेवं शुभाशुभ चिन्त्यमशेषमेभिः ॥७॥ SLOKAS 6 and '7. Subtract the figures of the Lagnas from those of the fourth (भाव); the fourth from the seventh, the seventh from the tenth, and the tenth from the Lagna. Take a third and two thirds of the first remainder and add thein separately to the first (भाव) bhava to obtain the two succeeding ones. Take a third and two thirds of the second remainder and add them separately to the fourth bhava to get the fifth and the sixth. Deal similarly with the other two remainders and get the bhâvas intermediate between the seventh and the tenth. वदन्ति भावैक्यदलं हि सन्धि तत्र स्थितः स्यादफलो ग्रहेन्द्रः । ऊनस्तु सन्धेर्गतभावजातमागामिजं चाभ्यधिकः करोति ॥८॥ SLOKA. 8. A half of the sum of two contiguous bhâvas is called their sandhi (afra). A planet that is in a bhâva-sandhi (भावसन्धि) produces no effect. But the planet that is short of a sandhi (1. e. on this side of it ) produces the effect of the preceding bhâva. If it should be in excess of a sandhi, it produces the effect of the bhavu to come.

·4 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः भावांशतुल्यः खलु वर्तमानभावोद्भवं पूर्णफलं विधत्ते । भावोनके चाभ्यधिके च खेटे त्रैराशिकेनात्र फलं प्रकल्प्यम् ॥९॥ SLOKA. 9. A planet produces the full effect of the bhava in which it is when its distance from the bhava-sandhi is equal to that of the bhavamsa (भावांश-semi-bhava). When the planet has a less or greater distance from a bhâva-sandhi than a bhávâmsa, its effect must be ascertained by a rule-of-three process. भावप्रवृत्तौ हि फलप्रवृत्तिः पूर्ण फलं भावसमांशकेषु । हासक्रमाद्भावविरामकाले फलस्य नाशः कथितो मुनीन्द्रैः॥१०॥ SLOKA. 10. Sages have declared that when a bhậva begins its effect also begins. The effect becomes full in the equal portion of all bhavas (just where a bhava is divided into 2 halves). When a bhâva approaches its end more and more, the effect gets less and less till at last it ceases when the end of the bhâva is reached. जन्मप्रयाणव्रतबन्धचौलनृपाभिपेकादिकरग्रहेषु । एवं हि भावाः परिकल्पनीयास्तैरेव योगोत्थफलानि यस्मात् ११ इति श्रीपतिविरचितायां जातकपद्धतौ भावाध्यायः समाप्तः। SLOKA. 11. Thus should bhâvas be decided at the time of a birth, a journey, the assumption of a vow, the ceremony of tonsure, a royal coronation or other like ceremony and marriage. For it is by calculating bhậvas that the effects due to certain combinations are found out. End of the First Adhyaya. द्वितीयोऽध्यायः। उक्तानि यस्माद्बहुधा फलानि व्योमौकसा दृष्टिसमुद्भवानि । तस्मात्प्रवच्म्यानयनं हि दृष्टेहोराविदां दृफलनिर्णयाय ॥१॥ SLOKA. 1. As the effects due to planetary aspects have been described in various ways, I now set forth the method of bringing out the amount of the planetary aspect to enable astrologers to determine the effects thereof correctly,

SLOKAS. 2 & 3. If the aspected when diminished by the
aspecting planet exceed six signs, it is to be subtracted from 10
signs. The remainder reduced to minutes is to be divided by
7200. The result is in Rupa and represents the amount of the
aspect. But if the difference should exceed 5 signs, subtract these
5 signs from it and reducing the result to kalas, i. e. minutes,
divide it by 1800. You will get the aspect (दृष्टि) in Rupas. When
the difference exceeds 4 signs, subtract it from 5 signs and
divide the result by 3600 to get the amount of the aspect. Should
the difference exceed 3 signs it is to be subtracted from 4 signs
and to the remainder reduced to minutes, add 3600 and divide
the sum by '7200. The result gives the amount of the aspect.
Next, if the difference exceed 2 signs, subtract these two signs
from it and to the remainder reduced to minutes, add 900
and divide the sum by 3600. The result represents the aspect.

एवं स्फुटाः खेचरदृष्टयः स्युर्दिग्भ्योऽधिकं पश्यति नो ग्रहेन्द्रः ४
SLOKA. 4. Lastly, should the difference exceed one sign,
take away this one sign from it, and reducing the remainder to
minutes, divide it by 7200. The aspect will be obtained in
Rupa. In this way the exact amount of the planetary aspects
can be ascertained. No planet sees beyond ten signs.

श्रीपतिपद्धतिः
SLOKA. 5 Three-quarters, half and one fourth of a Rupa
are to be superadded to the aforementioned aspects of Saturn,
Jupiter and Mars respectively when these aspects fall upon what
occupy 3rd and 10th, 5th and 9th, 8th and 4th places with
respect to them.

SLOKA. 6. The additive figures for each of these threc
planets are to be kept apart, they are to be multiplied by the
degrees etc. by which the difference (between the 57 and
द्रष्टा) falls short of, or is in excess of the prescribed quantity.
The product is next to be divided by 30 and the quotient is
to be deducted from the kshepas (क्षेप) or additive figures
The result expresses the exact amount of the art to be added
to the Drigbala (दृग्बल).
End of the 2nd Adhyaya.

SLOKA. 1. As there can be no knowledge of the order of
the periods and the sub-periods etc. of one's life without a know-
ledge of the strength of planets, I proceed to set forth this
strength in its entirety, differentiated as it is by the circumstanc-
es position, direction, time, nature, motion and aspect-of tho
planets.

·तृतीयोऽध्यायः । 7 SLOKA. 2. When a planet diminished by its depression figures is in excess of 6 signs, it is to be subtracted from 12 signs and the difference reduced to minutes is to be divided by 10,800. The resultant Rupa is the exaltation-strength (उच्चबल) of the planet. If the planet should be in its Moolathrikona, it has aths of a Rupa; if in its own house its strength is a Rupa. If it is in a very friendly house, its strength is measured by 3ths of a Rupa. In a friendly house its strength is Ith of a Rupa. In a nentral house it is th of a Rupa. शत्रुभे भवति षोडशांशकश्चाधिशत्रुभवने रदांशकः । एवमेव खलु सप्तवर्गजं स्यादलं निजपतेर्वशादिह ॥ ३॥ SLOKA. 3 In an inimical house it is ioth and in a very inimical sign it is th. The positional strength of a planet due to its being in the Saptavargas (सप्तवर्ग*) should be determined in accordance with its relation to the lord of each of those vargas. युग्मभांशकगतौ शशिशुक्रौ यच्छतो हि बलपादमयुग्मे । भांशके रविकुजेज्यशनिज्ञास्तावदेव वितरन्ति हि सखम् ॥ ४ ॥ SLOKA. 4 The Moon and Venus when they are in an even sign or in a Navamsa (नवांश) owned by an even sign give 4th of a Rupa as strength. The Sun, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Mercury give the same amount of strength when they are in an odd sign or in a Navamsa owned by an odd sign. N. B.-When the Moon or Venus occupies an even sign and also a Navâmsa owned by an even sign, then the strength is 4th of a Rupa for each circumstance. The total strength is a Rupa. Similar remark applies to any one of the other planets occupying an odd sign and at the same time a Navamsa owned by an odd sign. कण्टकाद्युपगतेषु नियोज्या रूपकार्द्धचरणा निजवीर्ये । भान्त्यमध्यमुखगेषु च पादः स्त्रीनपुंसकनरेषु निधेयः॥५॥ SLOKA. 5. When the planets are in Kantaka (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th ), panapara ( 2nd, 5th, 8th, 11th), and Apoklima (3rd, 6th, 9th, 12th ), a Rupa, 1 a Rupa and į of a Rupa respectively * Sapthavargas are seven-fold classification of a sign into (1) राशि (2) होरा (3) द्रेष्काण (4) सप्तमांश (5) नवांश (6) द्वादशांश and (7) त्रिशाश.

·8 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः are to be set down for their strength. When the feminine, hermaphrodite and masculine planets occupy respectively the end, the middle and the initial portion of a sign, 4th of a Rupa is to be assigned for their strength. स्थानवीयमिदमेवमिहोक्तं दिग्बलं शृणुत पूर्वदिशोतः । विद्गुरू रविकुजौ रविसूनुः शुक्रशीतकिरणौ बलिनौ स्तः ॥६॥ SLOKA. 6. The Positional strength (स्थानबल) has thus been treated of in this work. Hear the Directional strength (दिग्बल) from the East onwards. Mercury and Jupiter arc strong in the East or Lagna Bhâva, the Sun and Mars in the South or 10th Bhava, Saturn in the West or 7th Bhava , Venus and the Moon in the North or 4th Bhava. अर्कात्कुजाचाम्बुगृहं विशोध्यं जीवाद्भुधाच्चापि कलत्रभावम् । मेषूरणं भार्गवचन्द्रमोभ्यां प्राग्लग्नमुष्णांशुसुताच्च शेषम् ॥ ७ ॥ षड्भाधिकं चेद्भगणाद्विशोध्यं कलीकृतं खाभ्रगजाभ्रभूमिः। भजेदवाप्तं तु ककुब्बलं स्यादतः परं कालबलं प्रवच्मि ॥ ८॥ SLOKAS 7 and 8. Subtract the 4th Bhâva from the Sun and Mars, the 7th Bhâva from Jupiter and Mercury; the 10th Bhava from Venus and the Moon, and the Lagna bhâva from Saturn. If the remainder should be in excess of 6 signs, subtract it from 12 signs. Reducing the result to minutes, divide the same by 10,800. What is obtained is the Directional strength (igra) in Rupas. I shall proceed to state the Temporal strength (कालबल) of planets. नक्तंबला भौमशशाङ्कमन्दा गुर्वर्कशुका दिनशक्तयः स्युः। सदेन्दुपुत्रो दिनशक्तिभाजां ग्राह्यो बुधैरुन्नतसंज्ञकालः ॥९॥ नतस्तमोवीर्यवतां पलीकृतः खखाष्टचन्द्रैविहृतो बलं भवेत् । बुधस्य रात्रौ च दिवा च रूपकं विधेयमेतत्समयोद्भवं बलम् ॥१०॥ SLOKAS. 9 and 10. Mars, the Moon and Saturn have strength by night. Jupiter, the Sun and Venus have potency by day. Mercury is strong at all times. In the case of planets having strength by day take the ha and in the case of those strong by night take the नत. Reduce each to palas, ii. e. vighatikas and dividle the same by 1800. The result is Nathonnatha- , ·तृतीयोऽध्यायः। 9 Jala (नतोन्नतबल) in Rupas. Temporal strength of this kind in the case of Mercury, by day as well as by night, should be put down as one Rupa. व्यकः शशी षड्भवनाधिकश्चेञ्चक्राद्विशुद्धोथ कलीकृतोऽसौ । चक्रा लिप्ताविहृतो वलक्षपक्षे बलं स्यादथ कृष्णपक्षे ॥ ११ ॥ तदेव रूपाच्युतमेव कृत्वा जगुर्बुधाः पक्षबलं ग्रहाणाम् । वलक्षपक्षे शुभखेचराणां पापग्रहाणामसिते च पक्षे ॥ १२ ॥ SLOKAS. 11 and 12. The Moon diminished by the Sun when found greater than 6 signs should be subtracted from 12 signs, and the difference reduced to minutes should be divided by 10, 800. The result is the Pakshabala (पक्षबल) in Rupa of the benefic planets in the light half of the month. The same subtracted from a Rupa is their Pakshabala during the dark half of the month. Wise men say that the Pakshabala of the benefic planets in the light half of the month corresponds to the Pakshabala of the malefic planets during the dark half and vice versa. अह्नस्त्रिभागेषु बलं सरूपं सौम्यार्कतिग्मांशुभुवां क्रमेण । कार्य तुषारांशुसितामृजां च रात्रौ सदैवामरपूजितस्य ॥ १३ ॥ SLOKA. 13. There are 3 equal divisions made of the day and 3 equal divisions made of the night. These taken in their order are owned by Mercury, the Sun, Saturn, the Moon, Venus and Mars. The lord of the particular division of day in which a birth, &c. takes place has the strength of a Rupa. Jupiter has this strength (of a Rupa) at all times. * This is given tersely and elegantly by Kesava Daivagna in his जातकपद्धति-thus-"शुक्लेन्त्ये तिथिहृद्गतैष्यतिथयो वीर्य सतां भूच्युतं पापानां-". In the light half of the month the man of benefic planets on any day is number of past Thithis (तिथि) the defect of this from number of Thithis (तिथि) in the पक्ष, i.e. 15 unity is the quotes of the malefic ones In the dark half of the month the quacs of the benefic planets on number of Thithis (fast) to come The defect number of Thithis ( farer ) in the ca, i. e. 15 of this from unity is the fate of the malefic ones, 2 any day is .

SLOKA. 14. A planet gets 4, 5, 8, and 1 Rupa for its
strength according as it happens to be the lord of the year, tho
month, the week-day or the hour (कालहोरा) in which a birth,
&c. has taken place. This is the temporal strength as stated
by the astrological proficients of old times.

SLOKAS. 15-15). The northern declination must be put
down as additive upto its farthest limit from the Equator,
and the southern as subtractive in the case of Venus, the Sun,
Mars and Jupiter. This process is to be reversed in respect to
the Moon and Saturn; and the declination of Mercury whether
to the north or to the south is always to remain additive. Mul-
tiply the amount of declination in degrees by 3 and divide the
product by the maximum declination i. e. 24°. Viewing the
quotient as Rasis, reduce it to minutes and divide this by 10,800
minutes and the result is the Ayanabala (अयनबल) in Rupas; this
is to be doubled in the cause of the Sun just as the पक्षबल or
fortnightly strength is doubled in the case of the Moon.
N. B.-The way of a planet at the Equator is a Rupa,
This is increased when the planet's declination
increases and is additive, but when the declination is
subtractive the planet's strength (अयनबल) becomes
proportionately diminished.

·तृतीयोऽध्यायः । याम्योदकस्थाचरवलयोहानिवृद्धी विधेये युद्धे चेष्वोर्विवरविहृता खेटवीर्यान्तरेण । SLOKA. 15-16 When two planets are in conjunction 2. e. in planetary fight and their longitudes agree even to a minute-the total strength of each should first be calculated and the difference in their strength should be divided by the difference in their latitudes; the result is to be added to the strength of the victorious planet in the North and to be subtracted from that of the vanquished planet in the South. *मध्यस्पष्टद्युचरविवरार्द्धन युक्ताचलोच्चा- न्मध्ये स्पष्टादधिकवपुषि न्यूनके वर्जिताच ॥ १७ ॥ जह्यान्मध्यग्रहमिति भवेत्तच्च चेष्टाख्यकेन्द्र षड्राशिभ्योऽधिकमपनयेन्मण्डलाच्छेषकस्य । कृत्वा लिप्ताः शतहतगजाशाभिराप्तं फलं य- चेष्टावीर्य तदिह कथितं हौरिकैबुद्धिवृद्धैः ॥ १८ ॥ SLOKA. 161–18. If the Mean planet exceed the True planet, subtract the latter from the former and add half the difference to the Sighrochcha. Where the tye or True planet exceeds the Tea or Mean planet, subtract the latter from the former and dininish the Sighrochcha by half this difference. From the Sighrochcha thus increased or decreased as the case may be, take away the Hez or Mean planet. The result is Sighra- Kendra (शीघ्रकेन्द्र) or Chestakendra (चेष्टाकेन्द्र). If it exceeds 6 signs, subtract it fron 12 signs. Reduce the remainder to minutes and divide the same by 10, 800 minutes. The resulting quotient in Rupa measures the Cheshtabala (ère) as explained by the wise seniors in Astrology. * Kesava Daivagna expresses the same with greater brevity and clearness as follows: मध्यस्पष्टयुतेर्दलोनितचलं चेष्टाख्यकेन्द्र कुजात् The Cheshtakendra of the planets, Mars, etc. is their Sighrochcha diminished by half the sum of their mean and true positions.

The natural strengths (नैसनिकबल) of Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, the Moon and the Sun consist respectively of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 Rupas divided by 7. सौम्यदृष्टे दृष्टितुर्याशयुक्तं वीर्य पापालोकिते तद्विहीनम् । लग्नस्यापि खामिवीर्य हि वीर्य युक्तं कार्य तच्च जीवज्ञदृष्ट्या २० SLOKA. 20. When a planet is aspected by benefic ones, a fourth of the aspect is to be added to its 5 balas (स्थानबल, दिग्बल, कालबल, चेष्टाबल, निसर्गबल), previously enumerated ; when it is aspected by malefic planets a fourth of the aspect is to be deducted from the aggregate of the aforementioned 5 balas. The result becomes the atzi or Shadbala of the planet. The strength of a ya is the saine as the strength of its lord. To this should be superadded the entire aspect of Jupiter and Mercury upon the wra. शुभावलोकिते पुनस्तदीयदृष्टिपादयुक् असाधुना निरीक्षिते तदंघ्रिणा विवर्जितम् । नृभे क्षिपेच रूपकं चतुष्पदाप्ययोर्दलं न कीटभे च किंचन स्फुटं भवेत्तनोर्बलम् ॥ २१ ॥ SLOKA. 21. When a HTa is aspected by benefic planets a fourth of the aspect goes to swell its strength; when malefic ones aspect it, its strength is to be diminished by a fourth of their aspect. If the first he should be a human Rasi, put down one Rupa as its Digbala; If a quadruped or a watery sign, its Digbala is ) a Rupa , if a reptile, its Digbala is nothing. After these operations the true strength of the Lagna or the first he will be obtained. जलजचतुष्पदकीटभसंज्ञाः सुखदशमास्तगता बलवन्तः। निजनिजसप्तमगा विबलास्ते तदितरगैरनुपातविधिः स्यात्र२२ SLOKA. 22.

First find the exact position of the planets and diminish them by their depression figures; if the difference exceed 6 signs, subtract it from 12 signs. Reduce the result to minutes. Add 1800 minutes thereto and divide the sum by 1800 minutes. The resulting figures give the exaltation rays (उच्चरश्मि) of the planets.

The Cheshtakendras of the five planets beginning with Mars have been treated of already. Add the Ayanamsa (अयनांश) to the Sun and increase the sum by 3 signs. The result is the Cheshtakendra of the Sun. Subtract the Sun from the Moon to obtain the Cheshtakendra of the Moon. चेष्टाख्यकेन्द्राण्यधिकानि षड्भाचक्राद्विशुद्धानि कलीकृतानि । सराशिलिप्तानि खखाष्टचन्द्रैर्हतानि चेष्टायमरीचयः स्युः ॥४॥ SLOKA. 4. If the Cheshtakendras exceed 6 signs, they are to be subtracted from 12 signs and the difference reduced to minutes. Add 1800 thereto and divide the sum by 1800.

Subtract one unit from the units representing the rays of the planets. Find the sum of the Arithmetical Progression whose first term is one and the common difference is also one and the number of terms the number representing the net rays, and divide this sum by 3 times the rays; the results are the उच्चरश्मिफल and the चेष्टारश्मिफल. तद्धातमूलं फलमिष्टसंज्ञं ते तुङ्गचेष्टाप्रभवे फले तु । विशोध्य रूपादवशेषघातमूलं हि कष्टाभिधमामनन्ति ॥ ६ ॥ SLOKA. 6. Multiply the figures representing the two phalas (5). The square root of the resulting product expresses the good due to the exaltation (57) and the Cheshta balas of the planets. Subtract the 2 phalas (the उच्चफल, and चेष्टाफल) separately from unity and multiply the remainders together. The square root of the product gives the evil that is to accrue. पृथक् पृथक खेटबलानि ताभ्यां हन्याद्भवेतां हि बले स्फुटे ते । सर्वग्रहाणां च दृशः फलाभ्यां शुभाशुभाभ्यां निहताः स्फुटाः स्युः। SLOKA, 7. Multiply the aggregate षड्बल of each ·चतुर्थोऽध्यायः। 15 planet separately by the figures representing its good and evil influence as found out in the previous sloka. The products give the rectified good and evil strengths of the planet. The aspect of each planet is also to be similarly treated (i. e. multiplied separately by its good and evil 67 as found out in the previous sloka). The products indicate the rectified good and evil aspects of the planets. स्वोच्चे रूपं चरणरहितं स्वत्रिकोणे स्वभेऽर्द्ध नागांशानां त्रयमधिसुहृद्हगे मित्रभेऽघिः। अंशोऽष्टानां समगृहगते भूपभागोऽरिगेहे दन्तांशः स्यादधिरिपुगृहे नीचभे शून्यमेव ॥ ८ ॥ एतच्छुभाख्यमशुभं च पुनर्ग्रहेषु स्वोच्चादिवर्तिषु वदन्ति तदूनमेकम् । एवं गृहेषु शुभपापफलार्द्धमन्य- वर्गेषु षट्मु नियतं मुनयः पुराणाः॥९॥ SLOKAS. 8 and 9. Ancient sages say that the good influence of a planet is one Rupa in its exaltation; 4th of a Rupa in its Moolathrikona; 1 in its Swakshetra; 3th in the house of a very friendly planet; th in a friend's house; {th in the house of a neutral planet; 1 th in an inimical house; th in a very inimical house and nothing in its depression. The evil influence of the planet in the several above positions is obtained by subtracting the good influence from unity. And in the 6 Vargas other than राशि (vis. होरा, द्रेष्काण, सप्तांश, नवांश, द्वादशांश, and त्रिंशांश), only a moiety of the prescribed good and evil influences is to be calculated. ये खेटभोच्चादिफले शुभाशुभे सरूपवर्गार्द्धविभाजिते तथा । विधाय सत्कोष्ठकसप्तकावली विधारणीये मुखकोष्ठके ततः॥१०॥ तद्राशिसंज्ञं भदलादिकेषु वर्गेषु तस्यार्द्धमतो विधेयम् । शेषेषु कोष्ठेषु च षट्सु तज्ज्ञैः पंक्तिद्वयेऽपि धुचरस्य तस्य ॥११॥ SLOKAS. 10 and 11.

Find also the total सप्तवर्गशुभाशुभ- फल, as directed in slokas 8 and 9, of the lord of the house in which is the particular planet under consideration; and multiply therewith its शुभाशुभफल set down in the first row of the table mentioned in slokas 10 and 11 In regard to the results of the remaining six vargas in the 2 tables the same process is to be repeated, viz. of multiplying the l'esult of each varga with the corresponding af result of its lord. Each of the seven vargaproducts thus resulting under the two grand divisions of TT and अशुभ should be further multiplied by the square root of the product of the good or bad portions, as the case may be, of the entire strength of the lord of the varga concerned and the planet occupying it. It is in this way, a way approved by the sages, that we can arrive at exactitude in the measurement of the good as well as evil influences arising from thet and other 6 vargas, End of the 4th Adhyaya.

Since the affirmation or proof of the events to be predicted by means of astrology at a person's nativity is possible only upon a correct knowledge of the extent of his life, the method of ascertaining the allotted life-period is to be treated of in this chapter just as it has been received from immemorial tradition in view to benefit the community of earnest students. एकोनदीधितिसमादिह गच्छतो यद्रूपादिरूपचयसङ्कलितद्वयं स्यात्। चेष्टोच्चरश्मिजमथ स्वमरीचिभक्तं तज्ज्ञायतेत्र गुणकद्वितयं तदाख्यम् ऊने भवेतां निजदीधितिभ्यः श्रेढीफले ते यदि रश्मियुक्ते । तदर्द्धिते खांशुभिरुद्धृते ते तद्धातमूलं गुणकः स्फुटः स्यात् ॥३॥ SLOKAS. 2 and 3. The sums of two series in Arithmetical Progression in which the first term is 1 and the Common Difference also 1 but the number of terms 1 less than the number of aer rays in the first and 1 less than the number of उच्च rays in the second-these sums when divided by the numbers representing the age and a rays respectively will give what are called argue and sayur (qu=multiplier). But if the sums of the 2 series should be found to be less than the number of the rays, the rule for finding the गुणक is this: Increase each sum by the number of the rays. Divide half of this result by the number representing the rays. The quotient is the yulaf required. The square root of the product of the चेष्टागुणक and the उच्चगुणक is termed the स्फुटगुणक. वर्गोत्तमे स्वभवने वनवांशके च खत्र्यंशके च गुणको द्वितयं निरुक्तम् अध्यर्द्धरूपमधिमित्रगृहे सुहृद्रे सव्यंशकं समगृहे खलु रूपमेकम् ४ ध्यंशोनितं रिपुगृहेऽध्यरिभे दलं स्या- देभ्यो गुणो भवति यः खलु कश्चिदेकः । 3

·NOTES. 19 तिथ्यंशकैः क्रान्तिकलाभवन्ति युक्तायनांशग्रहगोलदिकाः ॥ The maximum declination, i. e. 24 degrees is reached when the planet has advanced 90 degrees from any one of the Equinoctial points. 6 equal divisions of 15 degrees each are made of this 90 degrees and the above rule gives the cleclination in minutes of a ( that is a planet whose progress along the Ecliptic is measured from the Equinoctial point) at the end of these several divisions. At the end of the first 15°, its declination is 362 minutes, at the end of the 2nd, it is greater by 341'; at the end of the 3rd, it is still greater by 299'; at the end of the 4th, it is further increased by 236', at the end of the 5th, it is raised by 150' more, at the end of the 6th, it is still further increased by 52'. A planet's distance from the nearest Equinoctial point will reveal in which of these 6 divisions it is, and its declination may be determined accordingly. Take for example the position of the Sun, viz. 0-17-43-30. Add the 3TUSTIET 0-21-47-38. The distance of the Sun from the Vernal Equinox is 1-9 -31-8. The Sun has advanced 9° 31' 8" in the 3rd division. 9° 31' S Therefore the declination=362 +341' to x 299'=892.737 minutes; since this is his northern declination, this is additive. It has to be added to 1440'. The total declination of the Sun from the zero-point (the point where the 577793 is nil) is 2332:737. Multiplying this by 3 and dividing by 1440, we get 4 8599 signs. The 3777 of the Sun therefore is 4.8599 x 30 x 60 = 8099...of a Rupa. 10800 This is certainly round-about. Kesava, Daivagna's method is shorter and simpler. It is this. Find the amount of declination in degrees from the zero-point and divide this by 48 degrees ( the declination from the zero-point to the maximum point).

To measure the चेष्टाबल of a planet what is called its चेष्टाकेंद्र should be ascertained. The method prescribed in the text for finding this a grease is very elaborate and involves a good knowledge of the laws of planetary motions, their Af and kila phalas ( 75 ). It is not possible without a good study of Astionomy to go through the processes mentioned in the text correctly. As the generality of astrological students depend upon almanacs for the results of planetary motions, they should feel thankful to any one who helps to get at these results most readily at second-hand. Such a one has actually come forth in the person of Mr. V. B. Ketakar of Bagalkot, Ratnagiri, Bombay Presidency. His monumental work named sulla situaz gives tables with the help whereof, the fact (which is identical with a great )* of planets can be accurately determined. This book will prove a valuable companion to the student of Astrology as it enables him to calculate the 25# and the planetary positions at any given time from 2000 B.

This is only a special instance of the general rule enunciated in the 23rd Sloka. If the 1st भाव be a biped sign, the '7th भाव has to be subtracted from it. The difference is 6 signs exactly. The fetao is consequently a Rupa. When the 1st z is a quadruped sign, the 4th ma is to be deducted from it. The difference here is 3 signs more or less. Hence the feas is put down roughly as half a Rupa.

declared possible, reduce the Lagna minus the planet to minutes
and divide this by the minutes contained in a Tiet. The
quotient is the divisor of the Âyushkalas (Erycans). When
this quotient is less than 1, subtract it from a Rupa and make
it a multiplier of the Âyushkalas. The working is to be thus
when the planet subtracted from the Lagna is malefic. When
the planet is benefic, the divisor is to be doubled; and the
Âyushkalas are to be divided by it; and the quotient which are
minutes are to be subtracted from the same Ayushkalas. But
if the divisor be less than unity, subtract half of it from a Rupa
and with the difference multiply the Âyushkalas.

SLOKA 18. When the Lagna has abundant strength
(which will be the case when its strength exceeds 6 Rupas) the
आयुस्
derived from it must be increased by as many years as
there are whole Rasis in the figures indicating the Lagna,
followed by the months, days, etc., calculated proportionally to
the degrees, minutes, etc., contained in the Lagna.
नवेन्दवो बाणयमाः शरक्ष्मा दिवाकराः पञ्चभुवः कुपक्षाः।
नखाश्च भास्वत्प्रमुखग्रहाणां पिण्डाश्रयाब्दा निजतुङ्गगानाम्॥१९॥
SLOKA. 19. The aggregate number of faustycio years
assigned to the Sun and other planets in their highest exaltation
point are respectively 19, 25, 15, 12, 15, 21 and 20.
निजोच्चशुद्धः खचरो विशोव्यो भमण्डलात्षड्भवनोनकश्चेत् ।

SLOKAS 20 and 21. Subtract the figures of a planet from
those denoting its highest exaltation point. If the result is less
than 6 signs, subtract it from 12 signs. But if the exaltation
point minus the planet should exceed 6 Signs, keep it as it is;
reducing the same to minutes, multiply this by the planet's years.
Divide the product by 21,600. The quotient represented by
years, months, days,etc., is called the fourtya of the planets.
त्र्यंशकं हरति शत्रुभे ग्रहः स्वायुषोत्र न तु वक्रचारगः।
सूर्यलुमकिरणोड़हारकः प्रोक्य भार्गवदिनेशनन्दनौ ॥२२॥
SLOKA. 22. A planet loses ) of its fqueryg when it is in
the house of a natural enemy. But this does not happen when
the planet is in its retrograde motion. When it is eclipsed by
the Sun, it loses of its
आयुस्.
Venus and Saturn are to be
exempted from the operation of this last rule.
खेचरो जायते योद्धव्यंशयोरपहारकः ।
आयुषः स हरेदई व्यंशं शुक्रशनैश्चरौ ॥ २३ ॥

·22 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः SLOKA. 23. When a planet being eclipsed by the Sun in the house of its natural enemy is liable to lose as well as of its आयुर्दाय, it suffers the loss of half the आयुस् only. Venus and Saturn in this position withhold a third of their respective Surger. चक्रार्द्धहानौ बहुषु द्वयोर्वा खेचारिणोरेकगृहस्थयोस्तु । सत्याभिधानस्य मतेन सत्यस्वांशं हरत्येव बलोत्कटो यः ॥२४॥ SLOKA. 24. When two or more planets happen to be in one and the same राशि and the process of चक्रा हानि has to be gone through in respect of all of them, it is enough if the reduction is effected for the planet which has predominant Strength. The views of harf on this point are quite correct. हरयुतिविहृता ग्रहसंख्यया स हि हरोऽपचयश्च ततः फलम् । अधिकवीर्यवतोऽम्बरचारिणो निगदतीति मुनिः किल देवलः॥२५ SLOKA. 25. The sage as expressly lays down this rule- Add the several divisors of the planets that may be in one IT and divide the sum by the number of the planets. The quotient will be the divisor Divide the Ayushkalas ( आयुष्कल) of the predominant planet by this divisor and make the reduction enjoined in Sloka 15. लिप्तीभूतैर्लग्नभागनिहन्यादायुय खेचराणां पृथक्स्थम् । व्योमाकाशबिन्दुपभजेत् तत् स्वायुर्दायाच्छोध्यमब्दादिलब्धम्।। एतत्क्रूरे लग्नगे सौम्यदृष्टे तस्माद्दायात्तत्फलार्द्ध विशोध्यम् । एतद्दायेनांशसंज्ञे विधेयं पिण्डायुर्वत्कर्म नैसर्गिकेऽपि ॥२७॥ SLOKAS. 26 and 27. Convert the degrees and portions there of in the Lagna to minutes ( the number representing integral signs being left out ); and multiply herewith the treret of the planets separately. Divide the product by 21,600. The quotient representing years, etc found for each planet must be subtracted from its sreypia. This reduction is enjoined when a malefic planet occupies the Lagna. But if the malefic planet be aspected by a benefic one only half the result obtained by the above process for each planet is to be subtracted from its regret. This reduction does not apply to the अंशायुर्दाय. The proccss in the नैसर्गिकायुर्दाय is also the same aos in the पिण्डायुर्दाय.

·पञ्चमोऽध्यायः । 23 नखाः शशी द्वौ नवकं धृतिश्च कृतिः खवा णारविपूर्वकाणाम् । इत्थं निरुक्ता क्रमशो ग्रहाणां नैसर्गिके ह्यायुषि वर्षसंख्या ॥२०॥ SLOKA 28. 20, 1, 2, 9, 18, 20 and 50 are the number of years prescribed respectively for the Sun and other planets in the नैसर्गिकायुर्दाय. अंशोद्भवं लग्नबलात्मसाध्यमायुश्च पिण्डोद्भवमर्कवीर्यात् । नैसर्गिकं चन्द्रबलाधिकत्वे ब्रूमस्त्रयाणामथ वीर्यसाम्ये ॥२९॥ SLOKA. 29. अंशायुीय is to be calculated upon the predoniinance of the strength of the Lagna, iquergeiz upon the Sun's superiority in strength and नैसर्गिकायुर्दाय when the Moon's power is strongest, अंशोद्भवं लग्नबलेन हन्यात् पिण्डाख्यमायुश्च बलेन भानोः । नैसर्गिकं चन्द्रमसो बलेन सर्वाण्यथैकत्र निधापयेत ॥३०॥ विलनतिग्मांशुहिमद्युतीनां हरेदलैक्येन ततो यदाप्तम् । वर्षाद्यमायुस्तदिदं स्फुटं स्याच्छ्रीनीलकण्ठादय एवमूचुः ॥३१॥ SLOKAS. 30-31. But when the three are of equal strength, multiply the अंशायुर्दाय by the strength of the Lagna, पिण्डा- युर्दाय by that of the Sun, नैसर्गिकायुर्दाय by that of the Moon and make a sum of the products. Divide this by the sum of the strengths of the Lagna, the Sun and the Moon. The quotient in years, months, etc. will be the rectified आयुसू. The illustrious नीलकण्ठ and other eminent authorities have declared to this effect. लग्नसूर्यशशिनो बलशून्याः स्युर्यदाऽत्र परमायुरगांशम् । सर्व एव खचरा ददतीदं जीवशर्मगदितं हि तदायुः ॥ ३२ ॥ SLOKA. 32. When the Lagna, the Sun and the Moon are devoid of strength (i. e., when their strength is less than 3 Rupas), each of the planets gives the आयुस् mentioned by जीवशर्मा which at its maximum is th of the maximum lifeperiod, vic., 120 years and 5 days (vide बृहज्जातक. Adhyaya.. 7). ग्रहः स्वोच्चहीनः स चेत् षड्भहीनो- भचक्राद्विशोध्योऽथ भागीकृतोऽमौ।

·24 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः कुवेदतुनागैर्हतो वेदखा:- विभक्तो दिनाधं भवत्येवमायुः ॥ ३३ ॥ अहोभ्यः खरामैहतेभ्योऽथ मासाः पतङ्गैश्च तेभ्यो भवेयुस्तदाब्दाः। भचक्रार्द्धहान्यादिकोन्यो विधिर्यः स पिण्डोद्भवे यद्वदुक्तस्तथैव ।। SLOKAS. 33 & 34. When a planet subtracted from its exaltation portion is less than 6 signs, it is to be subtracted from 12 signs. The result is to be reduced to degrees and multiplied by 8,641 and the product divided by 504. The result will be the arya in days, ghatikas, etc. When the days are divided by 30, we shall get months; and dividing the months by 12, we shall get years. The 4 reductions (viz., चक्रार्द्धहानिः, शत्रुक्षेत्रहानिः, अस्तंगतस्य हानिः, पापेलग्नगतेहानिः) are to be made exactly as prescribed in the fquerygtet. *आयुस्तथैतेषु बलाढ्यलग्ने त्यक्त्वा तु राशीन् कृतलिप्तिकेऽत्र । भक्ते द्विशत्या फलमब्दपूर्व यत् स्याद्विलग्नायुषि तच्च योज्यम्।।३५॥ SLOKA. 35. In the 3 Ayurdayas, viz., पिण्डायुर्दाय, निसर्गा युर्दाय, and जीवशर्मायुर्दाय, the आयुस् for the Lagna is to be worked just as in the statycia. But when the Lagna is strong (i. e, when its strength exceeds 6 Rupas) convert only the degrees, etc., contained therein into minutes, the integral signs being left out. Divide this by 200; the quotient in the form of years, etc., should be added to the लग्नायुसू. लग्नार्कयोरर्कशशाङ्कयोश्च लग्नोडपत्योर्यदि वीर्यसाम्यम् । तदायुषोरैक्यदलं भवेद्यत् तच्छ्रीधरायैः स्फुटमायुरुक्तम् ॥३६॥ SLOKA. 36. When there is an equality of strength between the Lagna and the Sun, the Sun and the Moon, or the Lagna and the Moon, find the sum of the Ayurdayas of the equally matched pair and take half of it. This will be the rectified ryg as declared by sftant and others. ये धर्मकर्मनिरता विजितेन्द्रिया ये ये पथ्यभोजनजुषो द्विजदेवभक्ताः । लोके नरा दधति ये कुलशीललीलां तेषामिदं कथितमायुरुदारधीभिः ॥ ३७॥ For a different reading of this SLOKA see Notes on Slokas 19-21.

·षष्ठोऽध्यायः । 25 SLOKA. 37. This आयुस् has been declared by wise men in respect to those who are engaged in the practice of virtuous actions, who keep their senses under control, who eat wholesome diet, who are devoted to Brahmins and the Gods, and who preserve the noble traditions and graceful manners characteristic of their families in this world. ये पापलुब्धाश्चौरा ये देवब्राह्मणनिन्दकाः। बहाशिनश्च ये तेषामकालमरणं ध्रुवम् ॥ ३८ ॥ इति श्रीपतिविरचितायां जातकपद्धतावायुया- ध्यायः पञ्चमः ॥ SLOKA. 38. Premature death overtakes those who are sinful, covetous and thievish, who revile Gods and Brahmins, and who are addicted to gluttony. End of the Fifth Adhyaya. षष्ठोऽध्यायः॥ भवन्ति चेजन्मनि रिष्टयोगा न स्यात्तदायुर्गणितागतं हि । स्याद्रिष्टभंगादथ रिष्टभङ्गे विधीयते सम्पति निर्णयोऽयम् ॥ १ ॥ SLOKA. 1. The age accruing by the computation ( treated of in the foregoing chapter ) may not be possible if there be harmful planetary positions in the horoscope. The age got ( by means of reckoning ) becomes possible from the existence of any circumstance which undoes the harmful planetary position. The following pronouncement is made in regard to it (रिष्टभङ्ग). यच्छुभाशुभबलान्तराद्धलं रिष्टभंगकरखेटयोः पुनः । सैकवर्गदलहृद्भसंज्ञकं तद्दलं भवति शेषवर्गजम् ॥ २ ॥ SLOKA. 2. The balance of strength which the fear and the 17547 planets may severally have as a result of the difference struck between their respective forces of good and evil—this balance of strength divided by 4 is to be put down in the stat column of the agaf table. A half of this is to be entered in each of the remaining Vargas. (रिष्टकर = causing misfortunes भङ्गकर = counteracting the above.) 4 ·26 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः of भादिवर्गपतिवीर्यसङ्गुणं जायते बलमरिष्टकारिणः । रिष्टभङ्करपि सप्तवर्गजं तद्धि सर्वबलसंयुतिस्तयोः ॥ ३ ॥ SLOKA. 3. When the strength of the free planet entered in the net and other varga columns of the garf table (as directed in the preceding sloka ) is multiplied into the total षड्बल the lords of those respective vargas, its totality is ascertained. The strength of the रिष्टभङ्गकर planet entered in the सप्तवर्ग table should be similarly manipulated to get its whole amount. शुभाशुभत्वं च हिताहितखं तुङ्गादिनीचास्तसमाश्रयत्वम् । रिष्टेशभङ्गेश्वरयोर्विचिन्त्यं समानवर्गेषु समानवर्गान् ॥ ४ ॥ विश्लेष्य शेषस्य बलोत्कटखं स्याद्रिष्टकर्तुश्च तदा हि रिष्टम् । भङ्गप्रमोश्चेदथ रिष्टभङ्गः समानतायामपि रिष्टमेव ॥५॥ इति श्रीपतिविरचितायां जातकपद्धतावरिष्टभङ्गाध्यायः षष्ठः॥ SLOKAS. 4 and 5. Weigh well the following points in regard to the feat as well as the 5757 planet; (1) whether the planet is benefic or malefic; (2) its influence for good or evil on the whole; (3) its position as to whether it be in its exaltation sign, in its Moolatri-kona, in its own house, etc.; in its depression, or in eclipsed state. Subtract the strength of the one in the several vargas from the strength of the other in the corresponding vargas; ascertain the difference. If it be appreciably great and is on the side of the रिष्टकर्ता, there is रिष्ट. If it be on the side of the TT, then the threatened evil is counteracted. If the forces of both be even, and there be no appreciable difference there is free still. End of the Sixth Adhyaya. सप्तमोऽध्यायः॥ अन्तर्दशामभृतिभेदवतीषु यस्मात् नूनं दशासु निखिलासु शरीरभाजाम् ।

·सप्तमोऽध्यायः। 27 व्यक्तिः शुभाशुभवि मिश्रफलस्य सम्य- क्तस्मादशाक्रमविधानमथाभिदध्मः ॥ १॥ SLOKA. 1. Since it is an assured fact that all living creatures have the reward of their previous Karma (कर्म) good, bad or mixed clearly revealed to them throughout the several Dasas (periods of planetary influence of which life is composed) with their divisions and subdivisions such as (अन्तर्दशा) Antardasa, (विदशा) Vidasa, and (उपदशा) Upadasaa, we now proceed to set forth the rule for determining the order of the Dasa periods. पाकं द्वादशधा वदन्ति यवना दिग्भेदभिन्न तथा माणित्थाः खलु बादरायणमुनिस्तं चाष्टधा प्रोक्तवान् । षड्भेदं खलु सिद्धसेनबिबुधस्तं देवलाद्याः पुनः भेदैरब्धिमितैरुदारधिषणः श्रीविष्णुगुप्तस्त्रिभिः ॥२॥ पाकं द्विभेदं मुनिराह सत्यस्तच्छास्त्रदृष्ट्या कथयाम्यशेषम् । नैसर्गिकः स्यात्प्रथमोऽत्र भेदो दशाक्रमाख्यश्च भवेद्वितीयः ॥३॥ अन्तर्दशाख्यः कथितस्तृतीयः प्रोक्तश्चतुर्थो विदशाभिधानः। यो राशिसंज्ञः खलु पञ्चमोऽत्र षष्ठस्तथा भावफलाख्यभेदः॥४॥ योगाभिधः स्यादिह सप्तमोऽपि स्यादष्टमो दृष्टिफलाभिधानः। प्रोक्तोऽष्टवर्गो नवमो मुनीन्द्रैर्होरादिवर्गो दशमो ग्रहाणाम् ॥६॥ प्रत्यब्दमासधुनिशाफलैः स्यादेकादशो भोजनमैथुनाद्यैः । सद्वादशः सत्वशरीरधातुस्वरूपभेदैः कथितोऽत्र तज्ज्ञैः ॥६॥ SLOKAS. 2-6. The Yavanãcháryas treat of the ripening of actions (पाक) in previous births in 12 forms. The followers of Honey speak of the same as having 10 varieties. The sage aigaro has recognised it in 8 divisions. The eminent fada declares the varieties thereof to be 6. देवल and others say that there are 4 kinds of the पाक. The sagacious विष्णुगुप्त gives 3 varieties of the same; सत्यमुनि says it is of 2 kinds. I shall treat of the whole subject from the view-point of the foregoing authorities. The first of the 12 different forms under which ·28 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः the free is treated is called aranea, based evidently on the face र्गायुर्दाय (vide बृहज्जातक ch. 9 82.9). The second is styled दशाक्रम i. e. the order of the Dasas or periods of planetary influence (vrde SZ-8 of this chapter ). The third is that styled Antardasa which consist of subsidiary portions of the Dasas. The fourth is what is called Vidasas (विदशा) which are Sub-divisions of the street. The fifth is called the test which treats of the effects of being born with the Moon in the several Rasis (vide बृहज्जातक ch. 17. also जातकपारिजात ch. 9. Slolcas 9, and after). The sixth is that which treats of the effects of the presence of planets in the several bhavas (vode बृहज्जातक ch. 20. Also जातक- पारिजात chapters 11-15). The seventh is what treats of the yogas, i.e. peculiar planetary positions and conjunctions [(1) द्विन्यादिग्रहयोगः-बृहज्जातक ch. 14 जातकपा ch. 8. (2) राजयोग-बृहज्जा ch. 11. जातकपा. ch. 7. (3) नामसंयोग-बृहजा ch. 12. जातकपा. ch. 7. Sl. 166. (4) चन्द्रयोग-बृह. ch. 13. जातकपा ch_7. Sl. 133 ]. The eighth is the one styled time, the effect of planetary aspect upon the lord of the Dasa. The ninth is declared to be the अष्टकवर्ग by the sages (oide जातकपा ch. 10.). The eleventh is the one in which the effects of the setting-in of each year, month, day and night upon a wilat is given in detail (vide जातकपा . ch 9.). The twelfth is that in which according to those conversant with the subject, a person's food, sexual enjoyment, etc. is described as determined by the person's mental and physical characteristics. . प्रायस्तदन्तः पतितास्तु सर्वे दशादिकानां तु दशाः प्रभेदाः। तेनोदिता नैव पृथक् पृथक्ते दशाक्रमं संपति कीर्तयामः ॥ ७॥ SLOKA. 7. The varieties of Dasa under the heads of 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2 according to the authorities above named are not separately treated because they are mostly included in the 12 divisions we have given, We shall therefore proceed to give the दशाक्रम or the order of the planetary periods. लग्नादित्योडुपानामधिकबलवतः स्यादशाद्या ततोऽन्या तत्केन्द्रादिस्थितानामिह बहुषु पुनर्वीर्यतो वीर्यसाम्ये ।

·सप्तमोऽध्यायः । 29 बहायुर्वर्षदातुः प्रथममिनवशेनोदितस्याब्दसाम्ये ब्रूमश्चातो दशादिक्रमविधिमधुना शिष्यबोधप्रसिद्ध्यै ॥ ८ ॥ SLOKA. 8. Of the Lagna, the Sun and the Moon, whichever is strongest will have its Dasa first. Then will come the Dasa of the planets in its Kendia and other positions. When several occupy together any one of these positions, the precedence will be given to the planet which predominates in strength. When they happen to be of equal strength, that which gives a longer period, in years, of आयुर्दाय will have its turn first. When there is equality even in regard to the number of years of the recit of the planets, that which rises first after being eclipsed by the Sun gets its Dasa prior to its fellows. And in view to enable the pupils to thoroughly comprehend this, we now give the rules for working out the processes by which the order of precedence among the several planets in regard to the Dasa should be established. पूर्व विलग्नस्य दशा यदा स्यात् भावं तदा खेचरतो विशोध्य । शेषं तु भावान्तरभागखण्डात् संशोध्य वीर्येण ततो निहन्यात् ९ भावान्तरांशार्द्धविभाजितं तत् पाकक्रमे वीर्यमुदाहरन्ति । भावाद्विशुद्धेऽपि हि खेचरेन्द्रे प्राग्वद्धलं पाकविधौ प्रसाध्यम् १० केन्द्रादिगानां द्युसदां बलानि तद्वत्प्रसाध्यान्यधिकं हि यस्य । खचारिणस्तस्य दशाग्रतः स्यादन्तर्दशा वा विदशाह्वया वा ॥११॥ SLOKAS. 9-11. When the Lagna has its Dasa first, (which will be in an ziarugi) the process for determining the order of dasas of the several planets is as follows: Find out the difference between the planet and the ia which it occupies. Take the excess over this of half the difference between the Hra occupied by the planet and the next preceding or succeeding one, whichever is nearest to the planet; divide this excess by half the difference between the 2 Bhavas taken. The quotient is to be multiplied by the षड्बल of the planet. This result must be obtained in the case of every planet occupying the Kendra and other positions. Whichever planet is found to ·30 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः have the highest strength will have priority over the rest in regard to a Dasa, Antardasa or Vidasa. आद्या दशा चेत्सवितुर्विधोर्वा तदा बलं संस्कृतमेव तस्य । वेदोद्धृतं राशिबलं तदर्द्धमन्येषु वर्गेषु पुनर्विधेयम् ॥ १२॥ खवर्गपानां गुणयेद्वलैस्तु यथाक्रमं वर्गबलं तदाहुः प्राक् पाकनाथग्रहयोर्ग्रहाणां स्याद्यावतां साम्यमथेह तेभ्यः ॥१३॥ परस्परं वर्गबलं विशोध्यं दशाक्रमे तलमाहुरायाः । यस्याधिकं वीर्यमिहावशिष्टं वाच्या दशा वाऽन्तरजा च तस्य ॥१४॥ SLOKAS. 12-14. If the first dasa belong to the Sun (as in the case of the पिण्डायुर्दाय ), or to the Moon (as in the case of निसर्गायुय), then the process of determining the order of dasas of the remaining planets and the Lagna is as follows. The rectified 57 of each one of these divided by 4 is to be entered in its first वर्ग, viz. राशि and a moiety of what is entered in the rest is to be set down in each of the remaining vargas. The entries in the 7 vargas should be multiplied each into the of its respective lord. What is obtained in this way is called arian. When two or more among the planets and the Lagna compete for priority because of their possessing equality of strength in some of the vargas, their vargabalas should be mutually compared and a balance obtained by subtracting the less from the greater. This will help in determining the order of the dasas of the planets. That planet which has the largest balance of strength will have precedence in regard to the main dasa as well as its subsidiary portions. अर्द्धमेकगृहगस्त्रिकोणगत्यंशमस्तगृहगस्त्वगांशकम् । पादमत्र चतुरस्रसंस्थितः पाचयन्त्यथ निजैः फलैग्रहाः ॥१५॥ SLOKA. 15. Planets placed in the following positions in regard to the lord of a dasa mature it by their several influences in the proportion of the numbers given opposite to them :- (1). A planet occupying the same house (if many, the strongest of them ) as the lord of the dasa. (2). A planet in a triangular 779. , ...

·सप्तमोऽध्यायः । 31 ... ... ... ... to (3). A planet in the 7th house. (4). A planet in the 4th or the 8th house. कृत्वांशकानामिह रूपमादौ छिदां समत्वं च तथा विनाशम् । निजैक्यभक्ताः पृथगंशकाः स्युरन्तर्दशाः स्वस्वसमाविनिघ्नाः॥१६ SLOKA. 16. Put down the numbers representing the various portions of the dasa beginning with unity and reduce them to equivalent fractions with a common denominator. Find the total of the aliquot parts of the main dasa represented by the several numerators; the denominators which have served their purpose are to be left out of account. The several aliquot parts multiplied into the years composing the main dasa and divided by the total of the aliquot parts constitute the separate antardasas or sub-periods of the dasa. अन्तर्दशाभ्यो विदशाः स्युरेवं ताभ्यस्तथैवोपदशाः प्रदिष्टाः। प्रत्यब्दमासधुनिशाघटीषु फलं निगद्यं सदसच्च ताभ्यः ॥ १७॥ SLOKA. 17. And from the Antardasas, their subdivisions called Vidasas (विदशा) are similarly announced ; and from the Vidasas, their minuter portions called Upadasas (उपदशा) are derived. And from the last-named divisions of the period, i.e. Upadasas, the good and evil to be experienced each year, month, day and night is to be declared by astrologers. जन्मकालकलियातवत्सरोत्पन्नमध्यमरवौ समण्डले । निक्षिपेदथ दशादिजाः समामासवासरघटीविनाडिकाः॥१८॥ तादृशो भवति भास्करो यदा मध्यमो परदशा तदा भवेत् । साध्यते दिनगणोनुपाततः खेचराः सविकलादहर्गणात् ॥ १९ ॥ SLOKAS. 18 and 19. Ascertain the Mean Sun with the portion of orbit traversed by him in accordance with the elapsed years of (कलियुग) Kaliyuga at the nativity of the person whose horoscope may be under examination. Add to the elapsed years of Kali aforesaid, the years, months, days, ghatikas, vighatikas measuring the dasas, antardasas, vidasas, and upadasas. And whenever the Sun attains the positions correspond-

·32
श्रीपतिपद्धतिः
ing to the several sums that result from the several above
additions, the several dasas, antardasas, vidasas and upadasas
next in order have their beginning. And the days composing
them severally can be ascertained by a rule-of-three process.
And the positions of the other planets are of course ascertain-
able from the ascertainment of the Ahargana (अहर्गण) of the
dasas etc.

SLOKA. 21. From the ( अहर्गण) Ahargana and its portion
obtained by the proportion given in the previous sloka,
determine the correct positions of the planets in accordance with
the rule of the Tantra (FET) or astronomical treatise that
you
may
follow and settle the time of Sun-rise in agreement with the
times of Sun-rise in the particular place in which the birth of
the native happened. This done, proceed to consider the good
and bad points of the horoscope,
दशापतिलग्नगतो यदि स्यात् त्रिषदशैकादशगश्च लग्नात् ।
तत्सप्तवर्गोप्यथ तत्सुहृद्वा लग्ने शुभो वा शुभदा दशा सा॥२२॥
SLOKA. 22. Ascertain the Lagna or the rising sign at the
time of commencement of a dasa. If the lord thereof be in
this Lagna or in the 3rd, the 6th, the 10th or the 11th house
from it, or if the Lagna be included in the garf of the lord of
the dasa, or if a friendly planet or a benefic one be in the
Lagna, the dasa will prove auspicious.
यावन्ति वर्षाणि दशा च सा स्याचारक्रमात्तत्र दशापतिः सः ।

·सप्तमोऽध्यायः। 33 SLOKA. 23. During the several years over which a dasa may extend, its good or evil effect is to be determined with reference to the particular house which the lord of the dasa may occupy for the time, in its progress through its orbit as also with reference to the position of the Moon. दशाधिनाथस्य सुहृद्गृहस्थस्तदुच्चगो वाऽथ दशाधिनायात् । स्मरत्रिकोणोपचयस्थितश्च ददाति चन्द्रः खलु सत्फलानि ॥२४॥ SLOKA. 24. The Moon produces beneficial effects when in the house of a friend of the lord of the dasa ; or in the exaltation house of the latter or in the 7th house, a Trikona house or in any one of the उपचय houses with reference to the दशानाथ. उक्तेषु राशिषु गतस्य विधोः स राशिः स्याज्जन्मकालभवमूर्तिधनादिभावः । तत्तद्विद्धिकृदसौ कथितो नराणां तद्भावहानिकृदथेतरराशिसंस्थः ॥ २५ ॥ SLOKA. 25. In the favorable positions mentioned in the previous sloka, the (राशि) Rasi occupied by the Moon should represent some one of the 12 bhavas, Lagna, Wealth, etc., at the time of birth. The Moon in one of these favorable positions promotes prosperity in respect to the za represented by the Trat occupied. In the unfavorable positions the are represented by the fat ( occupied by the Moon ) suffers damage. दशाप्रवेशे स्वगृहादिसंस्थे हिमद्युतौ यत्फलमुक्तमायैः। तद्वाच्यमिन्दुर्हि शुभाशुभाख्यं फलं मनोरूपतया ददाति ॥२६॥ SLOKA. 26. What has been described by the ancients such as वराहमिहिर as the effect of the Moon being in his own house or that of other planets should be mentioned in this connection. For it is the Moon that produces good and evil to be experienced in the form of mental states (pleasure and pain ). उत्पादितं हि धुचरस्य पूर्व शुभाशुभाख्यं तु फलं यदत्र । तेनानुसारेण दशासु कल्प्यं शरीरभाजामशुभं शुभं च ॥ २७ ॥ SLOKA. 27. The good and evil to be experienced by men in 10 ·34 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः the dasas or planetary periods should be determined in accordance with the इष्ट and g of the planet who is the lord of the dasa as worked out previously (vide Adhyaya 4. Sloka-4). इष्टोत्कटत्वे हि शुभानि पुंसां फलान्यनिष्टान्यशुभोत्कटत्वे । साम्ये तु मिश्राणि फलानि नूनं फलं त्रिधैवं परिकल्पनीयम् ॥२८॥ SLOKA. 28. Men experience good when the ge portion of a planet's influence is greatly in excess of the pe portion. But when the latter is predominant, evil has to be mostly suffered. But when the इष्ट and e are even, the effects are of a mixed kind. It is in these three ways that the planetary influence should be interpreted. सप्तवर्गजफलस्य सूरिभिस्तत्पभोरिह फलस्य निश्चयात् । एवमेव परिकल्पना स्फुटा शोभनाशुभफलस्य कीर्तिता ॥ २९ ॥ SLOKA. 29. To declare clearly the effect due to the Sapthavargas under the categories of good (शुभ), evil (अशुभ) and mixed ( TATT8T# ) in this way is dependent, say the sages, upon a correct ascertainment of the influence of the lords of the respective vargas. यद्यद्रव्यं कथितमृषिभिर्यस्य यस्य ग्रहस्य कर्माजीवोऽपि च तनुभृतां यश्च यश्चोदितोऽत्र । यद्भावोत्थं यदपि गृहजं योगजं दृष्टिजं यत् तत्तत्सर्वं ग्रहबलवशायोजनीयं दशासु ॥ ३०॥ इति श्रीपतिविरचितायां जातकपद्धतौ दशान्तर्दशादिविचारा- ध्याय: सप्तमः॥ SLOKA. 30. Whatever substance is declared by the sages to belong appropriately to any planet, whatever the occupation which men may have to pursue under certain planetary conditions, whatever the effect due to a भाव, a राशि, a योग (such as राजयोग etc.), or aspect, all this should be assigned suitably in the dasa periods in accordance with the strength of the planets presiding over them. End of the Seventh Adhyaya.

Since the fruit of past Karma (कर्म) which is of many forms, is being experienced momently and in various ways by large numbers of living beings, I shall have to treat of the manner of tracing it in its miscellaneous aspects. अष्टवर्गजफलं ग्रहस्य यत् साध्वसाध्वपि च तस्य लग्नतः । चन्द्रतोऽप्युपचयस्थितोच्चभस्वत्रिकोणमुहृदालयेषु तत् ॥ २॥ पूर्ण शुभं स्यादशुभं च हीनं विपर्यये कष्टफलं हि पुष्टम् । अपुष्टमिष्टं पुनरत्र वाच्यं बलाबलं तस्य विचार्य सम्यक् ॥३॥ SLOKAS. 2 and 3. When a planet's exaltation sign, Swakshetra, Moolatrikona, or a friend's house happens to be in the gray positions from the Lagna or the Moon, its good effects derived from Ashatakavarga are fully realised and the bad effects become reduced in the favourable positions mentioned above. Elsewhere there is a plentiful crop of evil, and the good becomes minimised. Any declaration regarding such planetary effects should be made after a careful consideration of the strong and weak points of the planet under examination, ये राजयोगाः कथिता हि तेषां भङ्गो न चेत्स्यात्सफलास्तदा ते । ज्ञेया बुधैर्योगदवीर्ययोगायुगामिनां रश्मिफलानि तद्वत् ॥ ४॥ SLOKA. 4. The Rajayogas mentioned before, take effect, in case there is nothing (in the horoscope ) to nullify them, in accordance with the strength of the planets producing those yogas. And the effects of planetary rays should be similarly found out by sagacious astrologers. दशानामरिष्टे तथा चास्य भङ्गे दशारिष्टभङ्गेशवीर्योत्कटत्वात् । दशारिष्टभङ्गो बुधैः कल्पनीयौ विधाय ग्रहान्किन्तु तत्कालजातान् ५ SLOKA, 5.

depend upon the preponderance in strength of the planet

being arrived at after a careful balancing of the strengths of
the planets at the time of the dasas.

SLOKA. 6. If, at the time the dasa of a malignant planet
is in progress, the antardasa of another malignant planet sets

all the more when the lords of the dasa and antardasa in
question are hostile.

then there will be prevention of the site or impending

SLOKA. 8. The effect which bas been declared to follow
in the case of a woman's horoscope similarly to that of men
should be settled with reference to the strength of the Lagna
and the Moon. And the entire good or evil said to arise in
their case in consequence of the conjunction of certain planets
should be determined in exact accordance with the strength
of those planets.

Having regard to the fact that India lies between 6 and 36 N. Lat, the table has been constructed to serve the requirements of people residing in India. The process of applying it is as follows: The three figures given against each latitude are meant to apply to any one of the four triads into which the zodiacal signs are divided commencing always from what has been called ETTEHT 1. e., the first 30 degrees from the Equinoctial Point. The figures are subtractive in the case of the 1st and the 4th triads and additive in the case of the other two; that is to say, subtractive from Mesha to Mithuna and from Makara to Meena, and additive from Kataka to Kanya and from Thula to Dhanus. For example, the rising periods of the signs at a place in Lat. 13 N. are worked out in the following table. Times of rising at Charakhanda for Times of rising in Equator. Lat. 13 N. 13 N. Latitude.

It is upon the accuracy of this that all astrological calculations must be founded. The figures giving the Asus, additive or subtractive as the case may be, are termed CHARA- KHANDA by Hindu astronomers. For a clearer knowledge of this, vide Bhaskaracharya's Siddhantasiromani, Ch. VII. Slokas 18-22 In this connection it has to be repeated that the names from Mesha to Meena indicate divisions of 30 degrees commencing always from the Equinoctial Point and are therefore arts. But the names from Mesha to Meena used ordinarily are Nirayana (Area) and correspond to the Greek names, Aries, Taurrus, etc.

The idea of a should be clearly grasped. It is either ( 11 ) eastern or (79%) western ta. The former occurs between midnight and midday, the latter between midday and midnight. Again işga includes 2 cases (1) the distance between the Sun and the Meridian during the first half of day when the Sun is above the horizon; (2) the distance between the Meridian and the Sun when he is below the horizon, 2. e. when he has not yet risen. The 25a also comprehends these 2 cases: (1) the distance between the Meridian and the Sun in the afternoon prior to his setting; (2) the interval between the Meridian and the Sun when he has sunk below the horizon, z. e. after nightfall. The horoscope under reference is an example of 5.277. The length of day was given to be 30 g. 55 far. The interval between the Sun and the Meridian at the time of birth is therefore 15 g. 271 ſq. plus 1 =15 4. 57 fâ. This siga subtracted from 30 ghatikas ( that is 14 to 21 fa.) represents the प्रागुजत.

SLOKAS 9 and 10 ) and also to determine the 10th HTET. The rising periods of the 12 divisions of the zodiac from the Equinoctial Point for Lat. 10° 38' N. are as follows. मेष 4 far. वृषभ 4 41. वि. मिथुन 5 a. 14: कटक 5 घ. 29 fa. सिंह घ. fa कन्या 5 T.

If the division of the zodiac into 12 signs be taken to commence from this point, their rising periods for any particular place will not vary from year to year. Owing to the movement of the Equinoctial point from East to West i. e. in a direction contrary to the order of the zodiacal signs, the rising periods of these latter which are reckoned from the Star Aswini as given in the current almanacs are not reliable for a number of years for the simple reason that #9, i. e. the first sign which once began at the Equinoctial point is now 22 and odd degrees removed from it and may get farther off from it every succeeding year. If a table of the rising periods of the signs true for all years is to be prepared, it is possible only when मेष is reckoned सायन, .. e. when it is made to commence from the Equinoctial point The rules to be given for the determination of the Lagna (p) or the rising sign will bear out this fact.

·NOTES. 3 Rules for correctly finding out the Lagna taken from Bhâskarâchârya's Brahmatulya (pagal). तात्कालिकोऽर्कोयनभागयुक्तस्तद्भोग्यभागैरुदयो हतः स्वः । खाम्युद्धृतस्तं रविभोग्यकालं विशोधयेदिष्टघटीपलेभ्यः ।। तदग्रतो राश्युदयांश्च शेषमशुद्धहृत् खाग्निगुणं लवाद्यम् । अशुद्धपूर्वैर्भवनैरजाद्यैर्युक्तं तनुः स्यादयनांशहीनम् ।। Find the true position of the Sun from #q in signs, degrees, minutes etc. Add thereto the precession of the Equinox or TYTTIT. The sun will reveal the distance of the Sun from the Equinoctial point and consequently the particular division of the zodiac calculated froin that point in which the Sun now is. The portion of the sign traversed by the Sun is styled the to or passed portion; the portion to be traversed by the Sun is called the tre portion of the sign. Since the rising periods of the signs reckoned from the Equinoctial point for the place are known, find out the time which the ha portion of the sign occupied by the Sun takes to rise above the horizon. Subtract this time from the time at the end of which the birth has taken place. And from the remainder go on subtracting, as long as you can, the rising periods of the next following signs till you get a remainder which is less than the rising period of the sign to be subtracted and hence called 3797 sign (i. e. that could not be subtracted). Find what portion of that sign this remainder represents. That is the TTF portion of that sign in degrees, minutes, etc. Add to this the preceding signs reckoned from the Equinoctial point and subtract from the sum the waist. The remainder represents the Lagna. To find the true position of the Sun we have the following data. The Sun's entry into a was on Monday 44 g. 50 fa. after sunrise. The Sun's entry into q94 was on Thursday 37 5. 35 a. after sunrise. The time taken by the Sun therefore to pass 30 degrees of Àr is 30 days 52 t. 45 lê. The interval between the Sun's entry into he and the birth in question is 15 g. 10 fa. on Monday plus 17 days plus 59. a. on ·4 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः 56 Friday or 18 days 14 a 40 fa. Therefore the Sun's position is 18 days 14 घ. 40 वि x30 degrees=17° 4330" in मेष. 30 days 52 घ. 45 वि We now proceed to find out the Lagna. Adding the अयनांश to the Sun we get 1-9-31-S. The portion of q- to be traversed by the Sun (fa Hiztizt) is 20° 28' 52". The time taken for 20° 28' 52" of you to rise is 20° 2852" x4 घ. 411 वि. 30 degrees %D3 घ. 123 वि. nearly. The interval between sunrise on Friday and the time of birth at the close of Friday night is 59} 9. According to the rrule given above, subtracting 3 घ. 121 वि. from 59] घ. we hare 56 घ. 176 वि. The lising periods of 11 signs मिथुन, कटक, etc. to मेष inclusive come to 55 घ. 18] वि. Subtracting this from 173 वि. we have 593 वि. left of वृषभ which represents the भुक्त portion thereof. This, turned to degrees gives 597, 2811 -x 30°=6" 19' 24" of वृषभ or 36° 19' 24" from the Equinoctial point. Subtracting the sait from this we have for the Lagna 0-14-31-46 which means that 14° 31' 46" have passed in hq at the the time of birth. The अस्तलग्न is 6-14-31-46. Sloka. 5.

The distance of the Sun from the Equinoctial point is 39° 31' 8". The rising period of 9° 31' 9° 31' 8" 1795 8" of वृषभ at the Equator is g. = 19. 341 30° 360 a. nearly. The rising periods of मेष, मीन and कुंभ at the Equator are 4. घ. 39 वि., 4 घ.39 वि and 4 घ 597 वि respectively or 15 घ. 5275g on the whole. Therefore the portion of a corresponding to 513 fa.is 575 x 30º = 0° 30' 1" :72 nearly. 3215 Therefore the distance between the Sun and the Meridian is 9° 31' 8" of pH plus 30° of #9 +30° of fra plus 30° of 2 pluis 0° 30' 1" 72 of Fear or 100° 1' 18" •72 = 3-10-1–19. Now the Sun being at 0–17-43-30 the distance of the meridian from the stellar Aries is 0-17-43-30, minus 3-10-1- 19 or 9–7-42–11. This is the position of the Head or the 10th at. The 4th is obtained by subtracting 6 signs from the 10th Ha. The operation may be checked by finding the 4th yra directly thus:- The उन्नत is 14 q. 21 fa.

The Sun's position is 0–17-43-30. Subtracting the Sun from the Moon we get 8-26-46-9. As this exceeds 6 signs we have to subtract this from 10 signs. The remainder is 1-3-13-51. This when reduced to minutes is 1993-85. Dividing it by 7200 we get the Sun's aspect on the Moon to be .277 of a Rupa.

We are to find from the number of days that have elapsed from the time of सृष्टि (nde सूर्यसिद्धान्त Chapter 1. Slokas 45–51 ) up to the present and divide them severally by 360 and 30 days The quotients will represent the number of years and months that have passed. When 360 is divided by 7, there is a remainder 3, and when 30 is divided by 7 there is a remainder 2 Multiply the number of years since the creation by 3 and add 1 to the product. Divide this by 7. The remainder will give the week-day reckoning from Sunday The lord of the day found is the lord of the year required Multiply the number of months elapsed since the creation by 2 and add 1. Divide this by 7. The remainder will givo the day of the week counted from Sunday. The lord of that day will be the lord of the month required. FERTIT EU: To find the number of terrestrial days elapsed since creation up to the day of birth in question, wo proceel in the following manner:- The number of years that have elapsed from creation to the end of the last कृतयुग is 1,953,720,000. (vide सूर्यसिद्धान्त chapter 1, sl. 45–47) त्रेतायुग 1,296,000 द्वापरयुग 864.000 कलियुग 4,954 Total 1,955,884,954 = number of years that have elapsed since creation to the year of birth in question, or 23,470,619,448 solar months But, in a Great Yuga (4,320,000 solar years), there aro 1,593,336 additive months. (afegra ch 1, sl. 38). Therefore for 23,470,619,448 solar months, the number of additive months is 721,384,701 ( without the remainder ). Therefore the number of lunar months elapsed sinco creation up to the month of birth is 24,192,004,149, and consequently, the number of lunar days elapsed since creation up to the morning of Friday, i. c. the day of birth in question ·NOTES. 17 is 24,192,004,1+9 30 plus 21 (i. c. the number of elapsed Tıthis in #2 ), or 725,760,124,491. But, there are 1,603,000,080 lunar days in a Great Yuga, and 25,082,252 subtractive days (Felittera ch. I, sl. 37-38 ). Therefore for 725,760,124,491 lunar days the number of subtractive days is 11,356,018,356 ( omitting remainder). Therefore the number of terrestrial days since the creation up to the day of birth in question is 725,760,124,491 minus 11,356,018,356, or 714,404,106,135. This divided by 7 leaves a remainder 6 which shows the day of birth to be Friday. The arty, 2. e. the lord of the week-day is therefore Venus. Dividing the same number of elapsed terrestrial days by 360 and 30 seperately, we get the two quotients 1,984,455,850 and 23,813,470,204 denoting the years and months elapsed since the creation. According to the rule given before, these quotients have to be multiplied respectively by 3 and 2 and the product in each case increased by 1 and divided by 7. The respective remainders are 5 and 6. Therefore the lord of the year or ah is Jupiter and that of the month (FIAT) Venus. The word gitt means an hour, i. e. 1th part of a day as well as half of a Rasi. Some take it in the former sense and others in the latter. The lords of the horas (ERT) according to both the views are 7; viz. Jupiter, Mars, the Sun, Venus, Mercury, the Moon and Saturn recurring in the same order. The lord of each week day is the lord of the first hora. For instance, the 1st hora on Sunday belongs to the Sun; the next to Venus, the 3rd to Mercury; the 4th to the Moon; the 5th to Saturn; the 6th to Jupiter, the 7th to Mars; the 8th again to the Sun and so on. The last i. e. the 24th belongs to Mercury, So the 25th, i.e. the first hora on Monday belongs to the Moon. This is called GETTT. If EITT be taken in the other sense, i. e. half of a Rasi, the following rule is given for finding its lord. द्विघ्नोऽर्कोनविलग्नकेरविसितजेंद्वार्किजीवासृजः Subtract the Sun from the Lagna. Multiply the difference by 2. If the number of Signs exceeds 7, divide it by 7. The remainder will show the order of the TT. The lord of the ·18 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः first Eitt being Jupiter, ascertain the lord of the ETTT in question in the order shown in the formula. रविसितजेंद्वार्किजीवासृजः. It is in accordance with this latter view that we have calculated the lord of the ear in the horoscope.

Therefore the sum of the Arithmetical Progression in question is (5.742 19 356282 x 6-742)_2=19:356282. The उच्चगुणक -2.871. 6.742 Similarly the àUTTg of the Sun is 2.158. Therefore the Feature=V( 2.871 x 2.158 )=2:489. This illustrates the general rule in Sloka 2. To take an instance in which the sum of an Arithmetical Progression is less than the number of rays, take Saturn: His #rays=1.264. The Sum of the Arithmetical Progression in question=166848. This is less than his 57 rays. Therefore adding his sa rays to the above sum and dividing the result by 2 we have •715424. Dividing this by the number representing his rays, viz. 1.264, we have for Saturn's उच्चगुणक •566. Kesava Daivagna's rule is simpler. It is this: When the number of rays falls short of 3, add one, and take a fourth of the same to get the गुणक. When the number exceeds 3, subtract 1 and take half the result; that will be the que required. The Sun's # is=6742. This is greater than 3. The TOTES therefore is 6742 mins 1 5.742 -2.871. 2 2 The TS of Saturn is 1.264. This is less than 3.

It is as follows: यःस्वाधीष्टसुहृत्समार्यधिरिपोर्वर्गे धृतिश्चेष्विला विश्वाङ्केषु गुणागृहे द्विगुणिता योगः क्रमात् हरेत् । तद्भे षड्वसुगोंशुमद्धृतिजिनैः षनैश्च वर्गोत्तम- स्वांशत्र्यंशगते सदा रसगुणैः स्यादाश्रयाख्यो गुणः ॥ चेद्वर्गोत्तमपूर्वगोध्यरिसुहृद्रे तद्गृहाङ्कात् त्रिपडू लब्ध्योनो युगरीष्टभेऽब्धिनवकात्यास्वे समे केवलः । कार्यस्त्वाश्रयकः सः॥ 18, 15, 13, 1, 5, 3 are the figures respectively assigned to a planet's position in a स्ववर्ग ( his own ), in an अधीष्टवर्ग ( the house of a very friendly planet ), in a सुहृद्वर्ग ( in a fiiend's house ), in a समवर्ग ( in a neutral's house ), in a शत्रुवर्ग ( in an eneiny's house ), in an अधिशत्रुवर्ग ( in the house of a very inimical planet). The figure for a planet's position in a stat should be doubled. Add the figures in the 7 vaigas and divide the sum by 36, 48, 54, 72, 108 or 144 according as the राशि occupied by the planet is its own, or that of an अधिमित्र, of a मित्र, of a सम, of a शत्रु or of an अधिशत्रु. But when the planet happens to be in a वर्गोत्तमांश, in its on नवांश or in its own द्रेष्काण, the divisor is to be 36 invariably. The result is called the आश्रयगुण.

·VOTES. 35 And if a planet occupying a Tinatay Or Fagorov is in a Tra belonging to an gay or an ea, the figure for the quia is diminished in the one case and increased in the other by a trd part. If the house belongs to an enemy or friend, the decre:ise in the one case and increase in the other is a inte th part If the frie is its own or that of a 9A, the figure remains unaltered. To take the case of the Sun, the pricy occupied is that of an area. The figure for the fat is therefore 15 x 2=30. The aim is the Moon's, an fa. Therefore the figure is 15. The cast and paint are the Sun's own. Therefore the figure in each case is 18. The Fajar is owned by Mercury, a 77. The figure is 13. The grazia is that of Mars, an rata. The figure for the same therefore is 15. The Sun is in Jupiter's fåetit; Jupiter being now a A, the figure for the same is 9. The sum of the figures of the 7 vargas is 30+15+18+18 +13+15+9=118. This has to be divided not by 48, the figue prescribed for an ein Fiat, but by 36, because the planet is in its own ctu. Therefore the आश्रयगुणक is 113= 315 The Sun being in his own Eu and in an HATTIERT, the figure for the latter, viz. 30 has to be increased by 33, so that the rectified आश्रयगुणक is 375 +30=3125 97- which is the same as what has been found by the author's method. Slokas. 13, 14 and 15. Varâhamihira says (in his वृहज्जातका chapter 7, sloka 3, also stra&YTYSITET, Adhyaya 5, Sloka 9), that when malefic planets occupy the 12th, 11th, 10th, 9th, Sth and 7th houses from the Lagna, reduction in full, by }, by 3rd, by 1th, by th and by th should be made in the strygeia of the planets in the respective positions. This is to be halved in the case of benefic planets. This reduction is what is meant by FUTEGETAT; 7=zodiac, rag=the latter half, that is half measured in the direction of the year or node, in a contrary direction from the Lagna ;. e. Lagna, 12th, 11th, 10th etc. up to 7th. Ea reduction, styra's rule is a paraphrase of Varahamihira's. Lagna minus a planet will be less than 6 signs only when the planet is somewhere between the 7th and the 12th from the Lagna The reductions recommended by iga, if carefully analysed, will be found to be identical with those enjoined by Varalanıbira.

·30 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः Lagna minus the Sun is 115–209-48--16" :which is greater than 6 signs. There is therefore no idea for the Sun. The same remark applies to Saturn. Lagna minus the Moon is 35–00–2–7". This being less than 6 signs there should be चक्राईहानि. 3 signs, 2 minutes, 7 seconds=5,402 :16 5402 16 Therefore the or divisor is -3:001. As the 1800 Moon is benefic, the divisor has to be doubled and becoines therefore 6:002. Therefore, the rectified 3779CBT: of the Moon 1 according to the rule is the original 31cfar: minus 0.002 of the same or 269.65 .833=224.618. Lagna minus Mars is 09-16° 38' 37". Therefore the divisor 998.616 is =:554 which is less than 1. Therefore the Therefore the Tue is 1800 -445. Therefore the rectified आयुष्कलाः of Mars=2273-15 X .445=1011.551. We are not warranted in making the gata in the case of Mercury because we have already made it in the case of Mars who is stronger of the two planets in FITTITET (vide Sloka 24). The following table gives the rectified or egszigest: of the Planets. WA Tfa: FIT: बुधः TE: शुक्रः TT: 1063.5 224.618 1011.5512053.73 75.409 836.175 1675.683. SRETNIKOV JARO Slokas 17 and 18. The product of the rectified 37776 ST: and their appropriate HTTTTTM when divided by 200 gives the years, months, days, 1063.5 x 3056 etc. This in the case of the Sun is 200 =16 25 years.

·NOTES. 37 The 3712 for the Lagna is found in the following manner. Reduce the signs, degrees, etc., to minutes. Divide it by 2400. The remainder is the 31xcol: of the Lagna. Divide the 3717 caso: by 200. The result will be the number of years given by the Lagna. In the horoscope in question, Lagna is 03-14°-31'-46". Therefore the 2176**T:=871:76. The number of years, given by the Lagna=4:3588. Since the Lagna is strong in the present case (its strength being 9.083 Rupas ), we should add to the 14° 31' 46" आयुस् previously obtained of a year="4843 of a year. 30° Therefore the aggregate number of years derived from the Lagna is 4 3588+ •4843 or 4.843.

·38 श्रीपतिपद्धतिः If the word होश in होरापवल be taken to mean कालहोरा (vide Notes, page 17 ), the Moon is the Erity and so will be assigned a Rupa instead of the Sun getting it. The total shadbala (TTTT) of the Lagna, the Sun and the Moon will then be 9083, 9015 and 8:197 Rupas respectively. According to this view, Lagna is strongest. Therefore the einigeier given above would be most appropriate with regard to the horoscope we have taken for illustration. But if thr word EiTT be taken in the sense in which it is understood in be a I ( vide Notes, page 18 ), lquerygt would appear to be the l'art ono in connection with the horoscope, because the Sun's strength is highest ( sloka 29 ).
