Chapter 7 · Finding the Dashas
दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
अथ लग्नग्रहयोरंशसाम्ये पूर्वानीतलग्नबलग्रहबलयोर्मध्ये यस्याधिक्यं तस्याद्या दशा बलसाम्ये लग्नस्य गत्यभावाल्लग्नेशग्रहयोर्मध्ये यस्याऽल्पगतिस्तस्याद्या दशा ॥
Now, if the lagna (rising sign) and a planet have equal degrees: compare the lagna's strength and the planet's strength, found before. The one with more strength has the first dasha (planet period). If the strengths are equal: the lagna has no motion. So compare the lagna lord and the planet. The one with slower motion has the first dasha.
Simple meaning: Lagna and a planet tie: the stronger comes first. If equal, compare the lagna lord with the planet; the slower comes first.
उक्तञ्च ताजिकसारे ॥
Lagna and a planet tie: Tajikasara agrees. The slower of the lagna lord and the planet comes first.
गतेरपि साम्ये उक्तवल्लग्नेशग्रहयोर्मध्ये पूर्वोदितस्याद्या दशा उदयसाम्येपि कथितपाठक्रमेण दशाक्रमो ज्ञेय इति ॥
Lagna and a planet still tied: the one that rose first comes first; then the usual listing order.
अथमासप्रवेशे दशानयनमुक्तं मुक्तावल्याम् ॥
Month periods: divide the month's length by the total of remainders, then multiply each remainder by it.
