दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
अनयोर्वाक्ययोर्व्यवस्था । यौग्रहावेकस्थानगतौ उच्चस्वगृहगतौ वक्ष्यमाणमैत्रीचक्रेण प्रकारान्तरेण वा मित्रगृहगौ १० वा स्याताम् ॥ तदा तयोर्दृष्टिश्शुभफलदात्री ॥ यदा तु समशत्रुनीचक्षेत्रादिगौ स्यातां तदा तयोर्दृष्टिरशुभेति ॥
The way to settle these two statements is this. Take two planets standing in the same place. Say both are in uchcha (high point) or in their own house. Or say both are in a friend's house, by the maitri chakra (friendship wheel) to be told or by another method. Then the drishti (a planet's look) of the two gives good results. But say they are in a neutral, enemy or nicha (low point) sign and so on. Then their look is bad.
Simple meaning: Settling the two views: the same-sign look is good if both planets are strong or in friendly signs, bad otherwise.
अथ यवननामाङ्किता दृष्टिः॥
Yavana names: same sign is mukarina, 7th is mukavila, 4th is taravidik; all three bring fear.
तृतीयैकादशे दृष्टिस्तदा प्रोक्ता महोत्तमा॥
Yavana names: the 3rd and 11th look is the very best; the 9th and 5th look is strong and very good.
अथ द्रष्टृदृश्ययोराशिभेदे सत्यपि द्वादशांशमध्ये तयोरवस्थाने दृष्टयो यथोक्तफलदात्र्यो द्वादशांशातिक्रमे तु साधारणफलदात्र्यः स्युरित्युक्तं समरसिंहेन॥
Full results of a look come only within twelve degrees; beyond that the results are ordinary.
