दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
अथ मित्रसमशत्रुरूपे मैत्रीचक्रे बलविभाग उक्तः संज्ञातंत्रे ॥स्वस्वाधिकारोक्तबलं सुहृद्भे पादोनमर्द्धं समभेरिभेंघ्रिः ॥एवं समानीय बलं तदैक्ये वेदोद्धृते हीनबलः शरोनइति ॥
The same verse: Tajika Nilakanthi 1.40
Now, in the maitri chakra (friendship wheel) of friend, neutral and enemy, the split of strength is told in the Samjna Tantra. The same verse is in Tajika Nilakanthi 1.40, with our English meaning there.
Simple meaning: Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 1.40; see its meaning there.
उच्चबलानयनमुक्तं वामनेन ॥
High-point strength: planet minus its low point; if over 6 signs, take it from 12; divide the degrees by 9.
अथात्रमामकंपद्यम् ॥
Balabhadra's rule: find the gap from the low point, keep it under 6 signs, and take a ninth of its degrees as high-point strength.
नीचे ग्रहः शोध्यो नीचं वा ग्रहे शोध्यं शोधिते सति यथा षड्भादल्पं भवति तथा कार्यम् ॥ तस्यांशा नवभक्ता उच्चबलं स्यादिति ॥
Explaining the verse: subtract either way so the gap is under 6 signs, then divide its degrees by 9.
