An example. The year begins on a Friday, the 9th day of the dark half of Shravana. It begins 5 ghatikas (24-minute unit) 36 palas (24-second unit) after sunrise. At this year's entry Mercury's dasha (planet period) comes first. In solar-civil days it is 29 days 47 ghatikas 50 palas. The year's entry is 6-5-36, as weekday, ghatikas and palas. Add Mercury's dasha days, 29-47-50, to it. This gives 35-53-26. Cast out sevens from the weekday part. The rest gives Saturday. So the second dasha, the lagna's (rising sign), begins on a Saturday. It is twenty-nine days after the year's entry, 53 ghatikas 26 palas after sunrise. Then add the lagna's dasha days to this time, 0-53-26. As before, this gives the third dasha's start, as weekday and so on. Do the same for all.
Simple meaning: Worked example: a year starting on Friday, plus Mercury's 29 days 47 ghatikas, puts the lagna's period start on a Saturday.
वामनेन तु मुन्थाफलज्ञानार्थं लग्नवन्मुन्थादशापि कर्तव्येत्युक्तम् ॥
Muntha period: Vamana says to give the muntha a period too, found like the lagna's.
यत्रयत्र द्वयोर्बहूनां वा ग्रहाणामंशादिसाम्यन्तत्र दशाक्रमज्ञानमुक्तम् हिल्लाजेन ॥
Equal degrees: the stronger planet's period comes first. If strength is equal too, the slower planet's comes first.
वर्षतंत्रेपि ॥
