Jataka Tattva · by Mahadeva
Chapter 17 · Planet Periods
दशातत्वम्
पाकेशाधिकगस्य भुक्तौ स्थानच्युतिर्हानिश्च ।
Say a planet is unclear word from the dasha (planet period) lord. In its sub-period, the person loses his place and suffers loss. (Possible print slip. An older print reads: standing in the 6th, 8th or 12th from the dasha lord.)
पापपाके शुभान्तरे आदौ कष्टं ततः सुखम्
In the dasha (planet period) of a bad planet, in the sub-period of a good planet, there is hardship first. Then there is comfort.
शुभपाके शुभान्तरे सुखम् ।
In the dasha (planet period) of a good planet, in the sub-period of a good planet, there is comfort.
शुभपाके पापान्तरे आदौ सुखं ततो भयम् ।
In the dasha (planet period) of a good planet, in the sub-period of a bad planet, there is comfort first. Then there is fear.
