NOTES OF
नक्षत्रस्य मुहूर्त्तस्य तिथेश्च करणस्य च । चतुर्णामपि चैतेषां शकुनो दण्डनायकः ॥ ( व्यवहारकल्प )
In the Lagnasuddhi also, Haribhadra deals with this by making statements on आलिङ्गित, दग्ध etc. Ratnasekhara in the Dinasuddhi and Jñanasagara in the Ratnacuḍakatha make occasional observations on this science. The Nidānamuktavali of Pujyapada makes some interesting allusions as will be seen from the following slokas :
रिष्टं दोषं प्रवक्ष्यामि सर्वशास्त्रेषु सम्मतम् । सर्वप्राणिहितं दृष्टं कालारिष्टं च निर्णयम् ॥
पीत्वा जलं यस्य न याति तृष्णा भुक्त्वा भृशं न क्षुदपैति यस्य । शक्तिक्षये वाऽथ सुवर्णनासा मासेऽष्टमे तस्य हि कालमृत्युः ॥ खण्डं भवेद्यस्य पदं कदाचित् पंकांकिते वा भुवि पांसुलेपात् । सप्तके मासि विहाय सर्वं प्रयांति याम्यं सदनं मनुष्याः ॥ The DP clearly mentions the A orne out by the following gathās:न निमित्ता विवज्जंति न मिच्छा रिसिभासियं ।
दुद्दिणं निमित्तेनं आदेसो उ विणस्सइ ॥ ६९ ॥ ९१५ ॥

In addition to these there are so many references in the VRS', AS, Vivekavilāsa, Naracandra Jaina Jyotis and the Tribhuvanasara that it is needless to multiply instances here. I have thus tried to give the meaning of the Ristas in general as well as the earliest reference to the Rista as found in the three prominent schools of Indian thought, namely, Vedic, Buddhist and Jaina. For its origin and developinent and for its conception according to Non-Indian schools of thought the readers are requested to refer to parallel passages in the Appendix and to the Introduction.
