अत्र केचन द्वादशवर्गीचक्रन्न कुर्वंति ॥ पठन्ति च ॥वामनेन ग्रहाणां वा प्रोक्ता द्वादशवर्गिका ॥पुराचार्य्यैरनुक्तत्वात् कृत्रिमा सा प्रकीर्त्यतइति ॥
Here some do not make the dvadashavargi (twelve-part division) chakra (wheel). And they recite: 'Vamana told the twelve vargas (divisions of a sign) for the planets. Because the old teachers did not say it, it is called artificial.'
Simple meaning: Some say the twelve-varga chart is artificial because the old teachers did not give it.
एतन्नरमणीयं ॥ यतोतिप्राचीनाचार्येणमणित्थेन ॥ भौमः सितोज्ञ इत्यादिश्लोकदशकेन द्वादशवर्गीचक्रमभिहितम् ॥ अतएवसंज्ञातंत्रेश्रीमन्नीलकंठदैवज्ञैर्द्वादशवर्गीचक्रमुक्तमिति ॥ इतिद्वादशवर्गीचक्रम् ॥
This view is not right: Manittha gave the twelve-varga chart in ten verses, and Nilakantha gives it too.
अथ ग्रहाणां वर्षबलं तत्र चत्वारि हर्षदानि स्थानान्युक्तानि तेजःसिंहेन ॥
Year strength: the first joy places are the 9th, 3rd, 6th, 1st, 11th, 5th and 12th for the planets from the Sun on. The second is own house and high…
अथ दिने नृखगस्य तु योषितो भवति रात्रिषु हर्षपदं तथा ॥
Third joy: day for male planets, night for female. Fourth joy: houses 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9 for female planets and 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, 12 for male.
