Chapter 7 · Finding the Dashas
दशानयनाधिकाराध्यायः
राश्यादिग्रहशुद्धांशयोगेन
That is, by the total of the cleared degrees of the planets counted by signs and so on.
Simple meaning: A note: the total used is that of the planets' remainders counted with their signs.
अथ हीनांशक्रमदशादूषणमाह स एव ॥
Yadava's objection: those who order periods by fewest degrees did not learn the foreign tradition.
तथा हि योल्पांशखगोंत्यगोस्य पूर्वा दशा तत्फलदा कथं स्यात् ॥
Yadava's objection: a far planet should not get the first period just for having few degrees.
अत्र लग्नस्यैव सर्वापेक्षया मुख्यत्वात् तत्समीपवर्तिनो ग्रहस्याद्या दशा दूरवर्तिनः पश्चादितिसयुक्तिकविचाराभावाद्धीनांशमार्गदशावश्यं त्याज्येति यादवोक्तिः ॥
Yadava's point: the planet nearest the lagna should get the first period.
