दृष्टिसाङ्गबलेष्टकष्टाद्यानयनाधिकारः
अथ पूर्वं ग्रहबलज्ञानार्थं स्थानान्युक्तानि ॥ इदानीं कस्मिन्स्थाने कियद्बलमित्युक्तं ग्रहज्ञाभरणे ॥त्रिंशत् ३० स्वभे विंशतिरुच्चगे स्यात्तिथिः २५ स्वहद्दे दशकंदृकाणे १० ॥नवांशके पञ्च ५ भवन्त्यशीतिरेवं युगाशाश्च विशोपकाः स्युरिति ॥
Earlier, the places for knowing the strength of planets were told. Now how much strength each place gives is told in the Grahajnabharana. Thirty (30) in its own sign. Twenty in the uchcha (high point). Fifteen (the figure with it reads 25) in its own hadda (a planet's own small part of a sign). Ten (10) in the drekkana (one-third part of a sign). Five (5) in the navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). These make eighty. In this way the vishopakas (twentieth parts) come by fours ('yugasha').
Simple meaning: Full strength by place: house 30, high point 20, hadda 15, drekkana 10, navamsha 5. These make 80, and a quarter of it is 20 vishopakas.
अथ मित्रसमशत्रुरूपे मैत्रीचक्रे बलविभाग उक्तः संज्ञातंत्रे ॥
Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 1.40; see its meaning there.
उच्चबलानयनमुक्तं वामनेन ॥
High-point strength: planet minus its low point; if over 6 signs, take it from 12; divide the degrees by 9.
अथात्रमामकंपद्यम् ॥
Balabhadra's rule: find the gap from the low point, keep it under 6 signs, and take a ninth of its degrees as high-point strength.
