Chapter 6 · Calendar, Muhurta Elements
कालमानं मुहूर्ताङ्गानि च
दोषाल्पत्वं गुणाधिक्यं बहु संततमिष्यते ।दोषाद्दुष्टो हि कालस्तमपि मार्ष्टुं पितामहः ॥ ३११ ॥
In the full Narada Purana (Purva Bhaga) this is chapter 56, verse 311.
Few faults and many good points are always what is wanted. A time is spoiled by faults. Even Pitamaha Brahma ... to wipe that clean. (Our text is unclear here: the verb for Brahma is missing.)
Simple meaning: Look for few faults and many good points. No time is free of faults.
चंद्रस्य वलिमाधारमाधेय चान्यखेटकम् ।
The Moon's strength holds up the other planets.
चेदिंदुः शुभदः सर्वे ग्रहाः शुभफलप्रदाः ।
If the Moon is good, all planets give good. If bad, they give bad.
लग्नस्याभ्युदिता येंशास्तेष्वंशेषु स्थितो ग्रहः ।
A planet in the risen part of the rising sign acts as a 1st house planet.
