In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 55, verse 210.
Four or more planets may stand together in one house. Then the man leaves home as a wandering monk. Each of Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, the Moon, Venus, Saturn and the Sun gives its own kind. (Our text is unclear here: one word, perhaps meaning strong.)
Simple meaning: Four or more planets in one house can make a person a wandering monk.
शाक्याजीवकवृद्धार्थिचरकाखफलाशनः ।
Each planet gives its own kind of monk. If that planet is beaten, he drops the vow.
अदीक्षिताल्पस्तगतैः सबलैस्तत्स्थभक्तयः ।
Weak or set planets leave him uninitiated. Strong ones make him a devotee of that order.
मंदो वा जन्मपं नष्टं तथा च मंदकागणे ।
The Moon in a Mars navamsha, looked at by Saturn, can make the person take initiation.
