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

Adh. XCVI. Sl. 12-13.] षण्णवतिमोध्यायः 731 प्राग्लग्नतोयास्तनभःस्थितेषु मेष्वंशकेभ्योऽक्षरसंग्रहः स्यात् । क्रूरोऽक्षरं हन्ति चतुष्टयस्थो दृष्ट्वापि मात्रां च त्रिकोणगो वा ॥१०॥ 10. The letters of a name are contributed by the Navamsas of the signs that are the 1st, 4th, 7th and 10th houses. A malefic posited in a Kendra house destroys a syllable, while in a triangular one, destroys a मात्रा. The same result will arise even by aspect. शुभग्रहस्तूर्जितवीर्यभागी स्थानांशतुल्याक्षरदः स चोक्तः । पश्यन् स्थितः केन्द्रत्रिकोणयोर्वा स्वोच्चेऽपि वर्णद्वयमात्मभागे ॥११॥ 11. A strong benefic is said to contribute as many syllables as the Navamsas travelled by him; or when he is posited in a Kendra, Kona, in his exaltation or own Navamsa and aspects the Lagna, he gives two letters. क्षेत्रेश्वरे क्षीणबलेऽंशके च मात्राक्षरं नाशमुपैति तज्जम् । असम्भवेऽप्युद्भवमेति तस्मिन् वर्गाद्यमुच्चांशयुजीशदृष्टे ॥१२॥ 12. When the lord of the sign rising as also its Navamsa are weak, the syllabic instant मात्रा as well as the syllable caused by that is destroyed; still, in its stead, the first letter of the particular class comes into being provided the said lord is posited in the Navamsa that is owned by his exaltution sign and the Navamsa Rasi aspected by its own lord (or, and aspected by the lord of that Rasi or Navamsa Rasi ?) केन्द्रे यथास्थानबलप्रकर्ष क्षेत्रस्य तत्क्षेत्रपतेश्च बुद्ध्वा । • कार्योऽक्षराणामनुपूर्वयोगो मात्रादिसंयोगविकल्पना च ॥१३॥ 13. The order of the letters as well as the existence of the Matras, conjunct consonants at the beginning or the end should be fixed only after ascertaining fully the extent of the positional strength of the Kendra house and its lord. तत्रादिराश्यादिचतुर्वि लग्नमाद्यंशकादिक्रमपर्ययेण । ग्रहांशकेभ्यः स्वगणाक्षराणामन्वर्थने प्राप्तिरियं विधार्या ॥१४॥
