Chapter 4 · The Sahamas
सहमाध्यायः
यदुनरसिंहनन्दनेन दिवाकरेण स्वकृतवर्षपद्धतिटीकायां सैकतासंस्कारो वामनेनोक्त इत्युक्तम् ॥ तन्मतिभ्रमेण ॥
Divakara, son of Narasimha, wrote in his own commentary on the Varsha Paddhati. He said Vamana stated the add-one-sign step. What he said comes from a confusion of his mind.
Simple meaning: Divakara's claim that Vamana gave the add-one-sign step is wrong.
ताजिकशास्त्रावबोधरूपायान्ताजिकमुक्तावल्यामप्युक्तम् ॥
Tajikamuktavali: if the lagna is between, subtract its degrees left. If not, add its degrees gone. Count from the 2nd house for every sahama.
ग्रहज्ञाभरणेप्युक्तम् ॥
Grahajnabharana: by day join the Sun's degrees left and the Moon's degrees gone, plus the signs between. Then check where the lagna is.
यदि न स्यात्तदा क्षेप्या भुक्तांशा अस्य मध्यगे ॥
If the lagna is outside, add its degrees gone. If it is inside, subtract its degrees left. Then subtract 30 per sign from the 2nd house.
