Chapter 7 · Finding the Dashas
दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
द्वौ वा त्रयश्चेत्समराशिखेटास्तदल्पभागः प्रथमो निधेयः॥समानभागोल्पफलैस्तु लिप्ता तुल्येऽल्पवेगस्तु गतौ समायात् ॥पूर्वोदितो योथविलग्नखेटौ समौ तदा लग्नदशैव पूर्वा इति ॥
If two or three planets are in the same sign, set first the one with fewer degrees. If the degrees are equal, go by fewer minutes. If those are equal too, the slower one comes first. If the motion is equal, the one that rose first comes first. If the lagna (rising sign) and a planet are equal, the lagna's dasha (planet period) comes first.
Simple meaning: Yadava's ties: fewer degrees, then fewer minutes, then the slower planet, then the one that rose first. The lagna beats a planet in a tie.

Yadava's worked example: the remainders total about 404 degrees. 360 divided by it gives a multiplier a little under one day.
अत्रान्तर्दशाप्रकार उक्तस्तत्रैव ॥
Yadava's sub-periods: treat each period like a small year and share it out by the same remainders, starting with its own.
राश्यादिग्रहशुद्धांशयोगेन
A note: the total used is that of the planets' remainders counted with their signs.
