परिचौराधमर्णाद्या अन्येऽप्युत्पात विग्रहाः। कर्तव्याः खलु रिक्ताङ्गे जयलाभसुखाथिभिः ॥२४३॥
Meaning: A person desirous of attaining an object should sit in such a way that those persons, namely, guru, relatives, ministers and others from whom he expects some benefit, should be on that side on which the artery is flowing.
The women, seated on a seat or in the bed on the side on which the breath is flowing come under control. There is no other fascinating device than this.
____Enemies, theives, and those from whom money has been borrowed on credit as also those who are the instruments of harassment, trouble, and botheration should be kept, by those who want comfort and happiness, on the side on which breath is not flowing.
प्रतिपक्षप्रहारेभ्यः पूर्णाङ्गे योऽभिरक्षति ।
न तस्य रिपुभिः शक्तिर्बलिष्ठेरपि हन्यते ॥२४४॥ Meaning : Those who want to shield themselves from the blows of formidable enemies must establish mastery on the breath.
वहन्तीं नासिकां वामां दक्षिणां वाऽभिसंस्थितः । पृच्छेद्यदि तदा पुत्रो रिक्तायां तु सुता भवेत् ॥२४॥ सुषुम्णावाहभागे द्वौ शिशू रिक्ते नपुंसकम् । संक्रांतौ गर्भहानि: स्यात समे क्षेममसंशयम् ॥२४६॥
