बृहत्संहिता (आचार्य वराहमिहिर - स्थापत्य, खगोल, मौसम व जल विज्ञान)

736 बृहत्संहितायाम् [Adh. XCVI. Sl. 14-15
[Multiply the number representing the sign of each Kendra
house by the number of its Navamsas (owned by the planets) and
divide the product by nine; the remainder gives a particular
Navamsa, from whose lord the letter is to be deduced.
Suppose Mesha to be rising; then multiply 1 by the Navamsas
contained in it, i.e. 6, (the nine Navamsas being owned by six pla-
nets) and divide by 9, thus; 1 × 6 ÷ 9. The remainder is 6. The
letter indicated will be that of Mercury, i.e. ड and so on.]
सञ्चिन्तितप्रार्थितनिर्गतेषु नष्टक्षतस्त्रीरतिभोजनेषु ।
स्वप्नर्क्षचिन्तापुरुषादिवर्गेष्वेतेषु नामान्युपलक्षयेत ॥३२॥
32. One ought to find out the names in connnection with the
following things: (1) Things thought of (2) things wished for (3)
departures; (4) lost objects, (5) damaged things, (6) women; (7)
sports (8) dishes (or food) (9) dreams (10) stars (11) cares and
(12) men; and so on from the four Kendras in order.
The commentator interprets the 12 subjects beginning with
सञ्चिन्तित (thought of) as referring to the 4 Kendras from the Lagna
in order, in three sets of 4 each; i. e., the names of numbers
1, 5 and 9 should be deduced from the Lagna Kendra: those of
2, 6 and 10 from the fourth Kendra; those of 3, 7 and 11 from the
7th Kendra; and those of 4, 8 and 12, from the 10th Kendra.
Here ends Yavaneswara's Akshara Kosa-
द्व्यक्षरं चरगृहांशकोदये नाम चास्य चतुरक्षरं स्थिरे ।
नामयुग्ममपि च द्विमूर्त्तिषु त्र्यक्षरं भवति चास्य पञ्चभिः ॥१४॥
Sloka 14.—If at the time of a query or some
body's arrival the rising sign (or Navamsa) is moveable,
the name of the person concerned will consist of two
syllables; if it is a fixed one, four syllables; if a dual
Rasi, he will have a double name, of which the first will
have 3 syllables and the second 5.
काद्यास्तु वर्गाः कुजशुक्रसौम्यजीवार्कजानां क्रमशः प्रदिष्टाः ।
वर्णाष्टकं यादि च शीतरश्मे रखेरकारात् क्रमशः स्वराः स्युः ॥१५॥
