संज्ञाध्यायः
सद्भावाकलितंपदार्थललितंयोगांगलीलार्चितंश्रीमद्भागवतंशुकास्यगलितंयच्छ्रीधरस्वामिना ॥सुव्यक्तंक्रियतेगणेशकविनागाथोक्तितज्जातकंवृत्तस्रग्धरयाजनादिसुफलंज्योतिर्विदांजीवनम् ॥ २ ॥
The Shrimad Bhagavata came from the mouth of Shuka. It is full of good feeling and lovely in meaning. It is graced by the limbs of spiritual practice. Shridhara Svami made it clear. In the same way, the poet Ganesha now makes this jataka (birth chart reading) very clear. It was once told in old gatha verses. He tells it in the sragdhara metre. It gives good results to people. It is the life and living of astrologers.
Simple meaning: As Shridhara made the Bhagavata clear, Ganesha makes this birth chart book clear in verse for astrologers.
यत्पूर्वंपरमंशुकास्यगलितंसज्जातकंफक्किकारूपंगूढतमंतदेवविशदंकुर्वेगणेशोस्म्यहम् ॥
Ganesha makes an old, short and hidden birth chart text clear in verse. It brings fame, happiness and wealth.
भूयांसःसंतिभूमौनिजपरमधियाशालिनःकाव्यगुंफेसंख्यावंतस्तथापिप्रचुरपरगुणानंदलीलांभजंते ॥
Many poets are wise, yet they enjoy the merits of others. Like the great sea, the great keep their limits.
देहंद्रव्यपराक्रमौसुखसुतौशत्रुःकलत्रंमृतिर्भाग्यंराज्यपदंक्रमेणगदितालाभव्ययौलग्नतः ॥
The twelve houses are body, wealth, courage, happiness, children, enemies, wife, death, fortune, kingship, gain and loss.
