दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
वर्गोत्तमविहीनो यः ९ शत्रुवर्गे १० गृहेपि च ११ ॥सूर्य्यभागोभितः १२ क्रूरैरिःफो १३ मुथशिलोपि च १४ ॥पापयुक्तो १५ मध्यगतो १६ ज्ञेयः खेटो बलोभित इति ॥
9: Without vargottama (same sign in the chart and its navamsha). 10: In an enemy's varga (division of a sign). 11: And in an enemy's house too. 12: Without the Sun's part. 13: In israpha (planets moving apart after an aspect) with papa (bad planets). 14: In ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect) too. 15: Joined with papa. 16: Gone into the middle of them. Such a planet is to be known as without strength.
Simple meaning: Bad states 9 to 16: not vargottama, an enemy's varga or house, not in the Sun's part, israpha with bad planets, ithasala, joined with bad planets, in their middle. Such a planet lacks strength.
अत्र शुभस्थानगे ग्रहे शुभफलं रूपमितं स्थाप्यं ॥ अशुभस्थानगे ग्रहे अशुभफलं रूपमितं स्थाप्यं पुनश्शुभाऽशुभफलयोरंतरेकृते सति यच्छुभमशुभंवा अवशिष्टन्तदेव ग्रहस्य इष्टं कष्टंवा फलन्दशाफलादिषु ज्ञेयम् ॥
Ishta and kashta: give one unit to the good result and one to the bad result. Subtract. What is left is the planet's good or bad result.
एतत्स्पष्टमुक्तम्मर्णितथेन ॥
Manittha: set one unit apart for the good result, and one unit for the bad result.
पृथक्स्थितस्यास्य यदन्तरालम्फलं तदेवाभिधमत्र वेद्यम् ॥
Ishta and kashta: the gap between the good and bad share is the result. Above ten it is full, below ten it is middle.
