उक्तं च सुधानिधौ ॥निश्चयोत्र सदा ज्ञेयो वारात्सर्वत्र हायने ॥तिथीभयोगतो ज्ञेयमनुमानं भयोगयोरिति ॥
And it is said in the Sudhanidhi: In the year, certainty always comes from the weekday, in every case. Through the tithi (moon day), nakshatra (star) and yoga (one of the 27 daily Sun-Moon yogas) it should be known. For the nakshatra and yoga, it is only an estimate.
Simple meaning: Sudhanidhi: the weekday of the year entry is sure; the nakshatra and yoga are only estimates.
लग्नमपि कालनैकट्ये समायातीति ज्ञेयम् ॥
Lagna at the year entry: it comes out close, not exact.
