Chapter 3 · The Sixteen Yogas
षोडशयोगाध्यायः
इति कुत्थः ॥ अथ दुरुःफयोगः ॥ तत्र दुरुःफयोगलक्षणन्तत्रैव ॥अस्तङ्गतो व्यस्तगतिस्त्वशस्तैर्युतेक्षितोष्टांत्यरिगस्स्वगेहात् ॥सप्तोपगो नीचखगेत्थशाली राहास्यपुच्छे दुरुफाभिधानः ॥
This ends kuttha. Next, durupha yoga is described. Its definition is given in the same book. A planet is set. It moves backward. Bad planets join or look at it. It is in the 8th, 12th or 6th from its own house. Or it reaches the 7th. Or it has ithasala (planets moving toward an exact aspect) with a planet at its low point. Or it is in Rahu's mouth or tail. This is called durupha (a planet in weakness).
Simple meaning: Durupha: a planet that is set, backward, joined or seen by bad planets, in the 6th, 7th, 8th or 12th from its own house, linked with a low planet, or in Rahu's mouth or tail.
संज्ञातन्त्रे चन्द्रस्य दुरुःफे विशेष उक्तः ॥
Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 2.73; see its meaning there.
क्षीणेभान्ते नो शुभो जन्मकाले पृच्छायां वा चन्द्र एवं विचिन्त्यः ॥
Same verse as Tajika Nilakanthi 2.74; see its meaning there.
अस्यापवादमाह समरसिंहः ॥
Duruhpha exception for Saturn: by day, in the bright half, in a human sign, the fault is small. The opposite makes it big.
