दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
भोग्यांशा पञ्चमे द्विघ्ना भुक्तांशा दृष्टिरुच्यते ॥षष्ठे द्विघ्ना भोग्यभागाः सप्तमे स्वार्द्धसंयुताः ॥भुक्तभागा भवेद्दृष्टिः कलाद्या ताजिकोदिता ॥
... the degrees still to travel. In the 5th, the degrees gone, doubled, are called the drishti (a planet's look). In the 6th, the degrees still to travel, doubled. In the 7th, the degrees gone, joined with their own half, would be the look. It is in minutes and so on, as the Tajikas tell.
Simple meaning: Easy rule: 4th, degrees still to travel plus half; 5th, degrees gone doubled; 6th, degrees to travel doubled; 7th, degrees gone plus half.
अष्टमाभ्यधिकंप्रोह्यराश्याद्यंभवराशितः ॥
Easy rule for the 8th: take the signs from 11 signs, turn the rest into degrees and double it.
नवमे दशमेप्येवं शिवभे भुक्तभागका ॥
Easy rule: 9 and 10 are as for 8; 11 doubles the degrees gone; the zero sign doubles those still to travel.
अथास्मिन्दृष्टिगणिते स्थानदृष्टिंविनापि ग्रहाणां दृष्टिरायाति तद्यथा ॥ दृश्यो भौमः ५।१५ द्रष्टा चन्द्रः ०।१५ अत्रोभयोर्यद्यपि षष्ठाष्टमस्थानदृष्टिर्नास्ति तथापि पूर्वोक्तगणितेनागता दृष्टिकलाः २०
Example: Mars at 5 signs 15 and Moon at 0 signs 15 have no house look, yet the working gives 20 minutes.
