स्थानस्थितिवशेनैवं फलं प्रोक्तं पुरातनैः । मिथो भावेशसम्बन्धात्फलानि कथयाम्यहम् ॥ १॥
sthānasthitivaśenaivaṃ phalaṃ proktaṃ purātanaiḥ | mitho bhāveśasambandhāt phalāni kathayāmyaham ||
The ancients stated results according to sign-placement alone; I now declare results arising from mutual connections of the bhava lords during the dashas.
लग्नेशस्य गशाकाले सत्कीतिर्देहजं सुखम् । धनेशस्य दशायां तु क्लेशो वा मृत्युतो भयम् ॥ २॥
lagneśasya gaśākāle satkītird dehajaṃ sukham | dhaneśasya daśāyāṃ tu kleśo vā mṛtyuto bhayam ||
During the dasha of the lagna lord there is good reputation and bodily happiness; in the dasha of the second lord there is distress or fear of death.
दशारम्भे शुभस्थाने स्थितस्यापि शुभं फलम् । अशुभस्थानगस्यैवं शुभस्यापि न शोभनम् ॥ ८॥
daśārambhe śubhasthāne sthitasyāpi śubhaṃ phalam | aśubhasthānagasyaivaṃ śubhasyāpi na śobhanam ||
A planet standing in a good bhava gives auspicious results at the start of its dasha; even a benefic placed in an evil bhava does not fare well.
केन्द्रेशः कोणभावस्थः कोणेशः केन्द्रगो यदि । तयोर्दशां शुभां प्राहुर्ज्योतिःशास्त्रविदो जनाः ॥ १३॥
kendreśaḥ koṇabhāvasthaḥ koṇeśaḥ kendrago yadi | tayordaśāṃ śubhāṃ prāhur jyotiḥśāstravido janāḥ ||
When a kendra lord occupies a trikona, or a trikona lord occupies a kendra, learned astrologers declare both their dashas auspicious.
