[31] Gani Vidya Payanna Sutra-8-Hindi Translation
Sutra-1
I will speak of the excellent Nav Bal method, as it is shown in the Pravachan Shastra, as it is spoken by the Jinas, and as it is praised by the learned. Sutra-2
This excellent Nav Bal method is as follows: day, tithi, nakshatra, karan, graha din, muhurta, shukan bal, lagna bal, nimitta bal. Sutra-3
In both halves of the day, hora is strong, in the night it is weak, in the night it is the opposite, recognize that bala bal method. Sutra-4-7
Ekam has no benefit, bij has calamity, trij has wealth fulfillment, pancham has victory and remains ahead. Satam has many virtues, dasham has a smooth path if you depart. Know that ekadashi has no obstacles in health and well-being. Those who have become enemies are in the family after terah. Avoid fourteenth, full moon, eighth, ninth, sixth, fourth, and twelfth in both halves of the day. Sutra-8
Shiksha should be given on ekam, pancham, dasham, full moon, and ekadashi. Sutra-9-10
There are five tithis: Nanda, Bhadra, Vijaya, Tushka, and Purna. These occur once each in a month, six times. Give shiksha on Nanda, Jaya, and Purna tithi. Observe fast on Nanda Bhadra and abstain from food on Purna. Sutra-11-14
Pursya, Ashwini, Magha, Revati, Hasta, Chitra, Anuradha, Jyestha, and Mula, these nine nakshatras are auspicious for travel. Mrigashirsha, Magha, Mula, Visakha, Anuradha Hasta, Uttara, Revati, Ashwini, and Shravana, depart and stay in these nakshatras, but there should not be an eclipse or twilight during this time.
