षंडत्व — ज्योतिःशास्त्रम्
रविग्रहस्थितभौमदृष्टबुधजनितनपुंसकत्वप्रतीकाराय बुधप्रीतये यथोक्तमेव कुर्यात् । मकरांशवर्तमानशुक्रजनितनपुंसकत्वप्रतीकाराय शुक्रप्रीतये यथोक्तमेव कुर्यात् । तेनोपशांतिर्भवति ॥
Mercury may be in the Sun's house and looked at by Mars. For the impotence this causes, one should do as said before, to please Mercury. Venus may be in a Capricorn navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). For the impotence this causes, one should do as said before, to please Venus. By this, peace comes.
Classical view, not medical advice.
करोतीति शेषः ।
The words "he makes" are to be added.
तथा च ।
And: With Venus in Capricorn, a man is born unmanly, ruined and wicked. He works for others, is deeply unhappy and dull. He can bear hardship.
अथ शनिरविबुधयोगे षंडत्वं संभवेत् । तत्प्रतीकारार्थं ग्रहत्रयप्रीतये यथोक्तमेव पूर्ववत्कुर्यात् ।
Next, impotence may arise when Saturn, the Sun and Mercury join. To ease it, one should do what was said before, to please these three planets.
