दानेशे सिंहासने खाङ्गपदृष्टे महादानशीलः ।
Say the lord of the house of giving is in a simhasana amsha (a good rank of strength). Say the lords of the 10th and the lagna (rising sign) look at it. Then the person gives very much.
दानपेऽम्बुगे खपे केन्द्रे व्ययेशे गुरुदृष्टे महादानशीलः ।
Say the lord of the house of giving is in the 4th house. Say the 10th lord is in a kendra (corner house). Say Jupiter looks at the 12th lord. Then…
स्वोच्चगे ज्ञे धर्मपदृष्टे लाभे केन्द्रे महादानशीलः ।
Say Mercury is in its own uchcha (high point) sign and the 9th lord looks at it. Say Mercury is in the 11th house or in a kendra (corner house)…
सबलेऽङ्गपे लाभे धर्मकर्मपदृष्टे दानप्राप्तिः ।
Say the lagna (rising sign) lord is strong and in the 11th house. Say the 9th lord and the 10th lord look at it. Then the person receives gifts.
