Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
अथेदानीं पानात्ययदोषस्य महोन्मादस्य च ज्योतिश्शास्त्राभिप्रायेण हेतुमाह तत्प्रतीकारं च ।
Next, the cause of drink sickness and great madness is told, as the stars see it, along with its remedy.
Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
यदुक्तं जातके । बहुशास्त्रदारितमुखो राज्ञां दूतो विदेशगः सुतनुः ।बुधराशौ दिनभर्तरि दृष्टे गुरुणा महोन्मादः ॥
As a jataka (birth chart reading) text says: The Sun may be in a sign of Mercury, with Jupiter looking at it. Then the person may have a face scarred by many weapons. He may be a messenger of kings who goes to foreign lands, with a fine body. Great madness may come.
Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
अन्यच्च — योषित्पानप्रभवैर्दोषैर्व्याध्यादिपीडितो मनुजः ।शुक्रे कर्कटसंस्थे स्वदोषवत्सकलदोषसंतप्तः ॥
Also: When Venus is in Cancer, a person may be troubled by illness and the like. These come from faults born of women and drink. He has faults of his own and is burnt by every kind of fault.
Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
अपरं च — दाक्षिण्यरूपधनभोगगुणैःप्रधानश्चंद्रे कुलीरवृषभाजगते विलग्ने ॥उन्मत्तनीचविकलो बधिरश्च मूकःशेषेषु ना भवति कृष्णतनौ विशेषात् ॥
And another: The Moon may be in the lagna (rising sign) in Cancer, Taurus or Aries. Then the person is foremost in kindness, looks, wealth, comforts and good qualities. In the other signs, a man may become mad, base, disabled, deaf and mute. This is most so when the Moon is dark.
Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
अन्यच्च — सुखसुतवित्तविहीनं मतिरहितं विगततनुं त्रिकोणस्थः ।सोन्मादं रवितनयः करोति पुरुषं सदादीनम् ॥
And another: Saturn standing in a trikona (luck house) makes a person lack happiness, children and wealth. He is without sense, weak in body, mad, and always sad.
Panatyaya and Mahonmada (drink sickness and madness) - the stars
कन्यायां मिथुने वा स्थितगुरुविलोकितदिननाथजनितमहोन्माददोषोपशांतये गुरुप्रीतये प्रागुक्तं जपहोमदानादि कुर्यात् ।
The Sun may stand in Virgo or Gemini, with Jupiter looking at it. This may bring the dosha (fault) of great madness. To ease it and to please Jupiter, he should do what was told before. That is japa (repeating a mantra), homa (fire offering), dana (gift) and the rest.

तथा च कर्कटांशस्थितशुक्रजनित पानात्ययदोषापनुत्यै शुक्रप्रीतये प्रागुक्तमेव जपादिकं कुर्यात् ।
Likewise, Venus may stand in a Cancer navamsha (one-ninth part of a sign). This may bring the dosha (fault) of drink sickness. To remove it and to please Venus, he should do what was told before. That is the same japa (repeating a mantra) and the rest.

वृषकर्कमेषवर्जमन्यत्रराशिस्थक्षीणचंद्रजनितोन्मत्तत्वदोषोपशांतये पूर्वोक्तं चन्द्रप्रीतये जपहोमदानादिकं निखिलमपि विदध्यात् तेनोपशांतिर्भवति ॥
The waning Moon may stand in any sign except Taurus, Cancer and Aries. This may bring the dosha (fault) of madness. To ease it and to please the Moon, he should do what was told before. That is japa (repeating a mantra), homa (fire offering), dana (gift) and all the rest. By that, peace comes.
