दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
व्यत्ययस्थाः फलस्यार्द्धं यच्छंति ग्रहदृष्टिजम्॥पादोनं सौम्यपापैश्च फलं ज्ञेयं विचक्षणैरिति॥
Those standing the other way round give half the result that the drishti (a planet's look) brings. The result from shubha (good planets) and papa (bad planets) together is to be known by the wise as less by a quarter.
Simple meaning: Reversed placing gives half the result; good and bad planets together give three quarters.
विशेषांतरमाह समरसिंहः ॥
Right look is stronger than the left look (Samarasimha).
अत्र चक्रस्य वामदक्षिणलक्षणमुक्तं हिल्लाजेन ॥
Outer six signs from the 7th are one half, inner six from the lagna the other half; they are called left and right.
वामनोपि ॥
Left and right looks: Vamana calls the right look the stronger.
