प्रश्नावताराध्यायः
फलभरकुसुमाभिरामभूमिरुहभुवि गोमयपुष्पतोयवत्याम् ।चरणसुखकृति प्रपृच्छतां स्यादभिमतसिद्धिरसंशयेन पुंसाम् ॥ १२ ॥
Some ground has trees heavy with fruit and lovely with flowers. It has cow dung, flowers and water. It is pleasant to the feet. People who ask on such ground will surely get their wish.
Simple meaning: If people ask on pleasant ground with fruit trees, flowers and water, their wish will surely come true.
प्रातः पुमान्विहितदेवगुरुप्रणामः पाणौ वहन् कुसुमरत्नफलाक्षताश्च ।
In the morning, the asker bows to the gods and honours the astrologer. He asks only once.
प्रश्नाक्षरैरुदयहेतुभिरुल्लसद्भिर्बाह्यस्थितैश्च शकुनैरधिगम्य सम्यक् ।
The astrologer reads the question's letters, the signs of the moment and the omens. Then he tells good or bad.
दृक्चेतसोः सुखकरी यदि भूमिरस्ति मांगल्यवस्तुविषये शुभदर्शने चेत् ।
If the place is pleasing and lucky things are seen at the asking, the astrologer should tell good.
