Hayanaratna · Chapter 4
सहमाध्यायः
This chapter is about varshaphal sahamas, the special points of a year chart, each tied to one matter of life. It starts by saying sahamas help the results of every house, as fate helps effort.
Then it names them and shows how to work out the Punya point, by day and by night, with examples and the views of older teachers. Many more sahamas follow, each with its own sum. Next it tells how to judge a sahama's strength and what each one gives. It closes with a note to fit the result to the person, and how to time the results.
The English below is our translation from the Sanskrit.
सहमाध्यायः
एवन्तत्तद्भावस्यापि पित्रादीनाम्मरणसहममपि साध्यम् ॥ यथा मृतिरष्टमर्क्षादिन्दुं विशोध्योक्तवदार्कियोगादिति ॥ अत्र हि तत्तद्भावस्तत्तत्सहमं वा लग्नम्प्रकल्प्य तस्मात्प्राग्वद्भावानानीय चन्द्रमिदानीमानीताष्टमभावं विशोध्य शनियोगे सति मरणसहमम्पित्रादेः स्यात् ॥
In the same way, the death sahama (special point for one life topic) of the father and other relatives can be worked out for each house. As it is said: take the 8th sign, remove the Moon, and then add Saturn, as told before. Here, take that house, or its sahama, as the lagna (rising sign). From it, work out the houses as before. Then remove the Moon from the 8th house found this way. When Saturn is added, that gives the death sahama of the father or other relative.
Simple meaning: Last-days point of the father and other relatives: treat their house as the lagna, find its 8th house, remove the Moon, add Saturn.

एतदप्युक्तन्तत्रैव ॥पित्रादिरिष्टसहमन्तेभ्योप्यष्टमभावत इति ॥

एवमेकस्मादेव वर्षलग्नादनेकानि सहमानि भवन्तीत्यलम्प्रसंगेन ॥

अथ सहमानाम्फलानि ॥ तत्रादौ सहमाधीशबलित्वाबलित्वलक्षणमुक्तं समरसिंहेन ॥स्वगृहोच्चत्रिंशत्रैराशिकनवांशकगतानाम् ॥प्राक्स्थाने बलवान् यथोत्तरस्थानगो हीनः ॥
Next, the results of the sahamas (special point for one life topic). First, Samarasimha has told the marks of a strong or weak sahama lord. Take a planet in its own sign or its uchcha (high point). Or in its trimshamsha (one-thirtieth part of a sign), or a trairashika (of a four-sign group) sign of its own. Or in its navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). In the earlier place it is strong. In each later place it is weaker.
Simple meaning: Strength of a sahama lord: own sign is best, then high sign, one-thirtieth part, four-sign group, ninth part. Each later place is weaker.
सहमाध्यायः

A planet may be adhikari (the planet in charge) in many ways. Look at its strength, and at its look on the lagna (rising sign). Even with many charges, if it does not see the lagna, it has no strength. A planet with few charges that sees the lagna is strong.

First, work out all the sahamas (special point for one life topic) in the birth chart, as told before. Then judge the strength of each lord, and of the sahama too.
