Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
वामनेनापि पितृसहमानयने स्पष्टमभिहितञ्च ॥दिने वर्षविलग्नश्चेत्सूर्यभोग्यांशकास्ततः ॥शनिभुक्तानंशकांश्च मध्यराश्यंशकैर्युतान् ॥
Vamana too has said it clearly, in working out the sahama (special point for one life topic) of the father. The year lagna (rising sign) may fall by day. Then take the Sun's degrees still to travel and Saturn's travelled degrees, joined with the degrees of the signs between...
Simple meaning: Vamana's way for the father's point by day: Sun's degrees left, Saturn's degrees gone and the signs between.
एकीकृत्य ततः प्राग्वत् कृत्वा लग्नविचारणम् ॥
After joining, check the lagna as before. By night, start with Saturn's degrees left.
सूर्यभुक्तानंशकांश्च पिण्डयेत्प्राग्वदाचरेत् ॥
By night add the Sun's degrees gone, then subtract from the 2nd house. Where it stops is the father's point.
यदुनरसिंहनन्दनेन दिवाकरेण स्वकृतवर्षपद्धतिटीकायां सैकतासंस्कारो वामनेनोक्त इत्युक्तम् ॥ तन्मतिभ्रमेण ॥
Divakara's claim that Vamana gave the add-one-sign step is wrong.
