Take first the case where the lagna (rising sign) is not between. The total then has the lagna's travelled degrees added. Thirty-degree parts are taken away from the 2nd house. So the count of the sahama (special point for one life topic) starts at the 2nd house. The 2nd house and the lagna are one sign apart. So the Samjna Tantra adds one sign to the sahama and counts it from the lagna itself. Now the case where the lagna is within. Thirty is taken away from the 2nd house as before, from the total less the degrees still to travel. Here too the count starts at the 2nd house. But here the degrees still to travel are taken away, not the travelled degrees added. That leaves the same degree in the sign. Yet the total is one full sign less. The 2nd house less one sign is the lagna itself. So the sahama is counted from the lagna itself, without adding one sign. So the add-one-sign step is shown to be right.
Simple meaning: Why one sign is added: Samarasimha counts from the 2nd house. When the lagna is outside, that is one sign more than counting from the lagna, so one sign is added. When it is inside, the total is already one sign less, so nothing is added.
अत्र केचिल्लग्नद्वितीयभवनादितिवाक्ये लग्नात् द्वितीयभवनादितिपञ्चम्यंतं पदद्वयरूपं पाठं कल्पयित्वा यद्यंतरराश्यंतर्न भवति लग्नं तदास्य भुक्तांशा मध्ये क्षेप्यास्तदैव लग्नभवनादेवाग्रिमराश्यंशाः शोध्याः यदा तु मध्यस्थितं लग्नं तदा स्वभोग्यांशा मध्ये क्षेप्यास्तदैव लग्नद्वितीयलग्नादारभ्याग्रिमराश्यंशाः शोध्याः एवं कृते सति लग्नस्य बहिःस्थितत्वे वा लग्नयोग एव भवतीत्याहुः ॥
Another view: they split 'from the 2nd house from the lagna' into 'from the lagna' and 'from the 2nd house', and use one for each case.
नैतद्रम्यम् ॥ यत ऋषिस्थानाभिषिक्तसमरसिंहवाक्ये प्रथमतः पाठांतरकल्पनमेव नोचितम् ॥ अथ कल्प्यमानेपि पाठे क्रमादितिपदाभावान्नाभिमतसिद्धिः रीतिरियं ग्रंथकर्तॄणां यत्र यथासंख्यं चिकीर्षितं तत्र तत्र क्रमाद्यथासंख्यंयथाक्रमंपदानि प्रयुज्यंते ॥
The other view is rejected: Samarasimha's words should not be changed, and without the word 'in order' it does not work.
Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
अब्दा गजाश्वैस्त्रिरसैर्विभाजिता ऋणं विलिप्तासु शशीज्ययोः क्रमादिति भास्करः ॥
Example of the word 'in order' from Bhaskara: years divided by 78 and by 63 are subtracted from the Moon and from Jupiter, in that order.
