Sanskrit

English meaning
The Sun — conceived in form, the path of the moon’s phases, called ‘the Self’ by the knowers of the Self, the very sacrifice of those who offer, the lord of the celestial lights, the master of the worlds’ dissolution, birth and preservation, praised in many ways in the Veda — may that many-rayed Sun, the lamp of the three worlds, grant us [eloquent] speech.
Hindi meaning
सूर्य — जो मूर्त रूप में कल्पित है, चन्द्रमा की कलाओं का मार्ग है, आत्मज्ञानियों द्वारा ‘आत्मा’ कहा जाता है, यज्ञ करने वालों का यज्ञ है, देव-ज्योतियों का स्वामी है, लोकों की उत्पत्ति, स्थिति और प्रलय का प्रभु है, और वेद में अनेक रूपों में स्तुत है — वही अनेक-किरणों वाला, तीनों लोकों का दीपक सूर्य हमें [उत्तम] वाणी प्रदान करे।

English meaning
Although the science of horoscopy has been set out again and again, by keen intellects and for keen minds, in many treatises furnished with grammar and reasoning, yet — for those whose effort is broken in crossing the vast ocean of horā-science — I now begin this small raft of a work, varied in its metre and rich in meaning.
Hindi meaning
यद्यपि होराफल के ज्ञान के लिए तीक्ष्ण-बुद्धि वालों द्वारा, तीक्ष्ण मनीषियों के हेतु, व्याकरण और न्याय से युक्त अनेक शास्त्रों में इसे बार-बार प्रतिपादित किया गया है, तथापि होरा-शास्त्र रूपी महासागर को पार करने में जिनका उद्यम भग्न हो जाता है उनके लिए मैं छन्द में विचित्र और अर्थ में बहुल इस छोटे-से शास्त्र-रूपी बेड़े का आरम्भ करता हूँ।

The word “horā”
Sanskrit

English meaning
Some derive the word "horā" from "ahorātra" (day-and-night) by dropping its first and last syllables. It [horā, the science] reveals in sequence the good and other fruits earned by action (karma) in a former birth.
Hindi meaning
कुछ विद्वान् ‘अहोरात्र’ (दिन-रात) के प्रथम और अन्तिम अक्षर के लोप से ‘होरा’ शब्द की व्युत्पत्ति मानते हैं। यह [होरा-विद्या] पूर्वजन्म में किए गए कर्म से अर्जित शुभ आदि फलों की शृंखला को क्रमशः प्रकट करती है।

English meaning
Planets standing in the 2nd, 12th, 11th, 3rd, 10th or 4th from each other are temporary (tātkālika) friends at that time; those elsewhere are temporary enemies. Combining the natural and the temporary relations yields the fivefold scale — great friend, friend, neutral, enemy and great enemy.

When the horā-lord, the Moon, Jupiter and the Sun are weak, the birth is as a tree; whether it grows on land or in water is decided by the navāṁśa. As many planets as relate to the lord of a land- or water-sign from the ascendant, so many trees are produced on land or in the water.
Hindi meaning
जब होरा-स्वामी, चन्द्र, गुरु और सूर्य निर्बल हों, तो जन्म वृक्ष के रूप में होता है; वह थल का है या जल का, यह नवांश से निश्चित होता है। लग्न से थल या जल राशि के स्वामी से जितने ग्रह सम्बन्धित हों, उतने ही वृक्ष थल या जल में उत्पन्न होते हैं।

English meaning
When benefics occupy the Moon-sign and the ascendant, the trines, the 7th, the 2nd and the 4th, while malefics are in the 3rd and 11th, and the Sun aspects them, the child in the womb is healthy and thriving.

Hindi meaning
जब लग्न, सूर्य, गुरु और चन्द्र विषम राशि और पुरुष नवांशों में बलवान् हों, तो पुत्र-जन्म कहना चाहिए; सम राशि व नवांशों में कन्या। गुरु और सूर्य विषम राशि में पुत्र देते हैं; चन्द्र, शुक्र और मंगल सम राशि में कन्या। द्विस्वभाव राशियों में स्थित ग्रह बुध से दृष्ट होने पर जुड़वाँ सन्तान उत्पन्न करते हैं।

The Moon and Venus in even signs, or Mercury, Mars and Jupiter rising with the ascendant and Moon in even signs aspected by masculine planets, produce female or multiple offspring. When Mercury in its own navāṁśa aspects planets occupying dual-sign navāṁśas at the ascendant, triplets result; by Mercury’s navāṁśa, twins; and with unmixed influences, an ordinary single birth.
Hindi meaning
सम राशियों में चन्द्र और शुक्र, अथवा बुध-मंगल-गुरु का उदय, लग्न और चन्द्र सम राशियों में पुरुष-ग्रहों से दृष्ट — ये कन्या या बहु-सन्तान देते हैं। जब बुध अपने नवांश में लग्न पर द्विस्वभाव-नवांश-स्थ ग्रहों को देखे, तो तीन सन्तानें; बुध के नवांश से जुड़वाँ; और अमिश्रित प्रभाव से सामान्य एकल जन्म होता है।

The Moon in the 6th or 8th; graded results
Sanskrit
शशिन्यरि विनाशगे निधनम् आशु पापेक्षिते शुभैरथ समाष्टकदलम् अतश्च मिश्रैः स्थितिः । असद्भिरवलोकिते बलिभिरत्र मासं शुभे कलत्र सहिते च पाप विजिते विलग्नाधिपे ॥ ६॥

English meaning
When the Moon is in the sixth or eighth, aspected by malefics, death comes quickly; aspected by benefics, life is prolonged; by mixed aspects, a mixed span. Aspected by strong malefics, death within a month; and when a benefic is in the seventh while the ascendant-lord is overpowered by malefics, death likewise follows.
Hindi meaning
जब चन्द्र छठे या आठवें में हो और पापग्रहों से दृष्ट हो, तो शीघ्र मृत्यु; शुभग्रहों से दृष्ट हो तो आयु बढ़ती है; मिश्रित दृष्टि से मिश्रित आयु। बलवान् पापग्रहों से दृष्ट हो तो मास भर में मृत्यु; और जब सप्तम में शुभग्रह हो पर लग्नेश पापग्रहों से पराजित हो, तो भी मृत्यु होती है।

English meaning
When the waning Moon is in the ascendant with malefics in the eighth and the angles; or the Moon stands hemmed by malefics in the eighth, fourth or seventh; or malefics occupy the seventh and eighth from the ascendant — death comes, together with the mother’s, unless strong benefics aspect.
Hindi meaning
जब क्षीण चन्द्र लग्न में हो और पापग्रह अष्टम व केन्द्रों में हों; या चन्द्र अष्टम, चतुर्थ (हिबुक) या सप्तम (द्यून) में पापग्रहों से घिरा हो; या लग्न से सप्तम-अष्टम में पापग्रह हों — तो माता सहित मृत्यु होती है, यदि बलवान् शुभग्रहों की दृष्टि न हो।

Hindi meaning
जब ग्रहण-ग्रस्त चन्द्र पापग्रह से युत हो और मंगल अष्टम में हो, तो माता और बालक दोनों की मृत्यु होती है; लग्न में सूर्य हो तो मृत्यु शस्त्र से। और जब सूर्य या चन्द्र त्रिकोणों व अष्टम में बलवान् पापग्रहों सहित उदय हो, और शुभग्रहों से युत या दृष्ट न हो, तो मृत्यु होती है।

Reductions for debilitation, enemy-sign and combustion
Sanskrit
नीचे अतोऽर्धं ह्रसति हि ततश्चान्तरस्थे अनुपातो होरा त्वंश प्रतिमम् अपरे राशि तुल्यं वदन्ति । हित्वा वक्रं रिपु ग्रह गतैर्हीयते स्व त्रि भागः सूर्योच्छिन्नद्युतिषु च दलं प्रोजिह्य शुक्रार्क पुत्रौ ॥ २॥

English meaning
In debilitation the contribution is halved, and for intermediate positions it is reckoned by proportion (some measure it by the horā, others equal to the sign). A planet in an enemy’s house loses a third of its share (retrograde planets excepted); and a planet combust — its light quenched by the Sun — loses half, except Venus and Saturn.

Planets in the 12th and the succeeding houses lose the whole, a half, a quarter, a third, a fifth or a sixth of their contribution when malefic, and less when benefic; when two share one sign the contribution is halved, and the stronger planet takes one share from the weaker — so Satya declares.
Hindi meaning
बारहवें आदि भावों में स्थित पापग्रह अपने योगदान का पूरा, आधा, चौथाई, तिहाई, पाँचवाँ या छठा भाग खो देते हैं, और शुभग्रह इससे कम; जब दो ग्रह एक ही राशि में हों तो योगदान आधा हो जाता है, और बलवान् ग्रह दुर्बल से एक अंश ले लेता है — ऐसा सत्य कहते हैं।

English meaning
The ascendant, the Sun and the Moon, standing in the angles and so on, give their results in the first, middle and last periods of life; results never fail to ripen — when no planet is in an angle, the fruits still ripen in order, beginning even from the cadent houses.
Hindi meaning
लग्न, सूर्य और चन्द्र, केन्द्र आदि में स्थित होकर, जीवन के प्रथम, मध्य और अन्तिम काल में अपने फल देते हैं; फल का पाक कभी नहीं रुकता — केन्द्रों में कोई ग्रह न हो तो भी फल क्रमशः, आपोक्लिम से आरम्भ होकर, पकते हैं।

The order of the daśās
Sanskrit
आयुः कृतं येन हि यत् तदेव कल्प्या दश सा प्रबलस्य पूर्वाम् । साम्ये बहूनां बहु वर्षदस्य तेषां च साम्ये प्रथमोदितस्य ॥ २॥
āyuḥ kṛtaṃ yena hi yat tadeva kalpyā daśā sā prabalasya pūrvā | sāmye bahūnāṃ bahu varṣadasya teṣāṃ ca sāmye prathamoditasya || 2 ||
English meaning
Whatever life-span a planet has contributed becomes the length of its daśā; the strongest planet’s daśā comes first, then among equals the one giving the most years, and among those still equal, the one that rose earliest.
Hindi meaning
किसी ग्रह ने जितनी आयु दी हो, वही उसकी दशा मानी जाती है; सबसे बलवान् ग्रह की दशा पहले आती है; समान बल में जो अधिक वर्ष दे उसकी, और उसमें भी समान हों तो जो पहले उदय हुआ उसकी।

English meaning
In the same sign a planet yields half its result; in a trine, a third; in the seventh, its whole share; in the square, a quarter — and so, mutually related (with the horā), they ripen one another’s sub-period results.
Hindi meaning
एक ही राशि में स्थित ग्रह अपना आधा फल देता है; त्रिकोण में एक-तिहाई; सप्तम में अपना पूरा अंश; चतुरस्र में फल का चौथाई — इस प्रकार परस्पर स्थित होकर (होरा सहित) वे एक-दूसरे के अन्तर्दशा-फल पकाते हैं।

English meaning
A planet fallen from exaltation is called “descending” and gives a middling daśā; one risen toward a friend’s or exaltation portion is “ascending”; and in a debilitation or enemy navāṁśa the daśā is of the lowest kind.
Hindi meaning
उच्च से च्युत ग्रह ‘अवरोही’ कहलाता है और उसकी दशा मध्यम होती है; मित्र या उच्च अंश की ओर बढ़ता, नीच से उठा ग्रह ‘आरोही’ होता है; और नीच या शत्रु नवांश में वह दशा निम्नतम होती है।

The natural (naisargika) daśā-years are, in order, 1 for the Moon, 2 for Mars, 9 for Mercury, 20 for Venus, 18 for Jupiter, 20 for the Sun and 50 for Saturn; each gives full results by its own nature, the daśās ripening in order, and the ascendant’s daśā at the end is auspicious — so the Yavanas hold, though some do not accept it.
Hindi meaning

English meaning
When the daśā-lord is in the ascendant, or in a friendly or benefic division, the daśā that begins is auspicious — as also when it is in the 3rd, 6th or 11th. When the Moon stands in a friend’s or exaltation sign, an upacaya, a trine, or the seventh from the daśā-lord, it awakens good results; otherwise, evil ones.
Hindi meaning
जब दशा-स्वामी लग्न में, या मित्र/शुभ ग्रह के वर्ग में हो, तो आरम्भ होने वाली दशा शुभ होती है — वैसे ही जब वह तीसरे, छठे या ग्यारहवें में हो। जब चन्द्र दशा-स्वामी से मित्र/उच्च राशि, उपचय, त्रिकोण या सप्तम में हो, तो शुभ फल जगाता है; अन्यथा अशुभ।

Hindi meaning
अपनी दशा प्राप्त कर सभी ग्रह महाभूतों से उत्पन्न गुण (छाया) प्रकट करते हैं — पृथ्वी, जल, अग्नि, वायु और आकाश के गुण — जो नासिका, जिह्वा, नेत्र, त्वचा और कर्ण (पाँच इन्द्रियों) से अनुमेय हैं।

The inner disposition follows the daśā
Sanskrit

English meaning
In a result-giving auspicious daśā the inner disposition too becomes favourable, generating much comfort and gain for a person; by the ripening of the results already described one should judge the current period, for the fruits come to pass through one’s own efforts, foreshadowed even in dreams and thoughts.
Hindi meaning
शुभ फल देने वाली दशा में अन्तरात्मा (मनोभाव) भी वैसा ही हो जाता है और मनुष्यों को बहुत सुख तथा धन-लाभ उत्पन्न करता है; पहले कहे फल-पाकों से वर्तमान का अनुमान करना चाहिए, क्योंकि फल की प्राप्ति अपने ही प्रयत्नों से होती है, जो स्वप्न और चिन्तन में भी झलकती है।

When two results conflict
Sanskrit

English meaning
When a single planet’s two results are similar but opposed, the lesser is destroyed and the greater ripens. One planet does not cancel the like result of another; each planet gives its results only on reaching its own daśā.
Hindi meaning
जब एक ही ग्रह के दो फल समान किन्तु परस्पर विरुद्ध हों, तो न्यून का नाश होता है और अधिक पकता है। एक ग्रह दूसरे के समान फल को नष्ट नहीं करता; प्रत्येक ग्रह अपनी-अपनी दशा प्राप्त कर ही फल देता है।

How the aṣṭakavarga results are read
Sanskrit
इति निगदितम् इष्टं नेष्टम् अन्यद् विशेषाद् अधिक फल विपाकं जन्म भात् तत्रदद्युः । उपचय गृह मित्र स्वोच्चगैः पुष्टम् इष्टं अवपचय गृह नीचारातिगैर्नेष्ट सम्पत् ॥ ८॥

English meaning
Thus the auspicious places have been declared; all others are inauspicious. Results ripen especially from the Moon-sign, where the planets give their greater fruit. A benefic point reinforced by planets in an upacaya house, a friend’s sign or exaltation yields a favourable result, while those with planets in a non-upacaya house, an enemy’s sign or debilitation yield unfavourable ones.
Hindi meaning
इस प्रकार शुभ स्थान कहे गए; शेष सब अशुभ हैं। फल विशेषतः जन्म-राशि (चन्द्र-राशि) से पकते हैं, जहाँ ग्रह अधिक फल देते हैं। उपचय भाव, मित्र-राशि या उच्च में स्थित ग्रहों से पुष्ट शुभ बिन्दु अनुकूल फल देता है; जबकि अनुपचय भाव, शत्रु-राशि या नीच में स्थित ग्रहों वाले प्रतिकूल फल देते हैं।

English meaning
Gain of wealth comes through the father, a step-mother, enemies, friends, brothers, the wife, or the dead — as signified by the Sun and the other planets; when these occupy the tenth from the ascendant or the Moon, the source is to be inferred, and the vocation from the lord of the navāṁśa held by the ruler of that place.

धन का अनुमान मित्र, शत्रु या अपने गृह में स्थित ग्रहों से किया जाता है; जब सूर्य उच्च और बलवान् हो, तो अपने ही बल से; और एकादश, लग्न व द्वितीय में स्थित शुभग्रहों से। अपने धन-साधन को अनेक प्रकार से, ग्रहों के बल को तौलकर, विचारना चाहिए।

जब सभी ग्रह दो निकटवर्ती केन्द्रों में हों तो गदा; लग्न और सप्तम में हों तो शकट; दशम और चतुर्थ में हों तो विहग (पक्षी); नवम, पंचम और लग्न में हों तो शृंगाटक; और लग्न से भिन्न त्रिकोणों में हों तो हल — ऐसा विद्वान् कहते हैं।

English meaning
When the Moon is in the angle, succedent or cadent from the Sun, its qualities are low, middling or highest, giving discipline, wealth, knowledge, intelligence and skill accordingly. When the Moon is in its own or a great friend’s navāṁśa, by day or night, and aspected by Jupiter and Venus, the native is wealthy and happy — this is the Adhiyoga.
Hindi meaning
जब चन्द्र सूर्य से केन्द्र, पणफर या आपोक्लिम में हो, तो उसके गुण क्रमशः निम्न, मध्यम या उच्चतम होते हैं, जो अनुशासन, धन, ज्ञान, बुद्धि और कौशल देते हैं। जब चन्द्र दिन या रात्रि में अपने या महामित्र के नवांश में हो और गुरु-शुक्र से दृष्ट हो, तो जातक धनी और सुखी होता है — यही अधियोग है।

Results by the Sun and Saturn
Sanskrit

English meaning
If Saturn (the Sun’s son) forms the yoga, one enjoys the wealth and belongings of others, is much occupied with affairs, and leads a company of men. The Moon by day forming this yoga is inauspicious (a wasted body); by night it is auspicious — other conditions should be inferred similarly.
Hindi meaning
यदि शनि (सूर्यपुत्र) यह योग बनाए, तो जातक दूसरों के धन-सामग्री का उपभोग करता है, कार्यों में व्यस्त रहता है, और लोगों के समूह का नेता होता है। चन्द्र दिन में यह योग बनाए तो अशुभ (क्षीण शरीर); रात्रि में शुभ — अन्य स्थितियाँ इसी प्रकार अनुमेय हैं।

English meaning
When all benefics occupy the upacaya houses (3rd, 6th, 10th, 11th) from the ascendant, one is exceedingly wealthy; from the Moon, also wealthy; with two such benefics, moderately so; with fewer, less wealthy — this holds even in the absence of other favourable combinations, by the strength of this yoga alone.
Hindi meaning
जब सभी शुभग्रह लग्न से उपचय भावों (तीसरे, छठे, दसवें, ग्यारहवें) में हों, तो जातक अत्यन्त धनी होता है; चन्द्र से हों तो भी धनी; दो शुभग्रह हों तो मध्यम धनी; कम हों तो अल्प धनी — यह अन्य शुभ योगों के अभाव में भी, केवल इसी योग के बल से, लागू होता है।

English meaning
When Saturn, together with three or more strong planets, occupies a single sign, or the planets are strong and separately placed, the native becomes an ascetic of one order or another — a Buddhist monk, an Ājīvika mendicant, an ordinary bhikṣu, an aged wanderer (caraka), a Jain ascetic (nirgrantha), or a forest-dweller — corresponding, in order, to Saturn, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, the Moon, Venus and the Sun. Renunciation follows the strength of these planets; when overpowered by their own lord, one falls from the ascetic life.
Hindi meaning
जब शनि तीन या अधिक बलवान् ग्रहों सहित एक ही राशि में हों, अथवा ग्रह बलवान् होकर पृथक्-पृथक् स्थित हों, तो जातक किसी न किसी संन्यास-मार्ग का अनुयायी होता है — बौद्ध भिक्षु, आजीविक, सामान्य भिक्षु, वृद्ध चरक, निर्ग्रन्थ (जैन तपस्वी), या वनवासी — जो क्रमशः शनि, मंगल, बुध, गुरु, चन्द्र, शुक्र और सूर्य के अनुरूप हैं। संन्यास इन ग्रहों के बल के अनुसार होता है; अपने ही स्वामी से पराजित होने पर संन्यास से च्युति होती है।

English meaning
When the Moon is strong, in a strong sign and its own lord also strong, it grants the full, unimpaired results of the qualities described. Other planets similarly placed should likewise be considered by analogy.
Hindi meaning
जब चन्द्र बलवान् हो, बलवान् राशि में हो, और उसका स्वामी भी बलवान् हो, तो वह कहे गए गुणों के पूर्ण, अखण्डित फल देता है। अन्य ग्रह भी इसी प्रकार स्थित हों तो तदनुरूप विचारने चाहिए।

Satya does not call the Aquarius ascendant auspicious; the Yavanas, by contrast, say it varies by navāṁśa. Viṣṇugupta holds that no sign lacks such variation by portion, and that this is merely an over-extension of the rule.
Hindi meaning

English meaning
When the fifth and seventh houses from the ascendant or the Moon have their lord well-placed or aspected by benefics, the prosperity of children and spouse is to be known; otherwise, the opposite is to be expected. When the Sun is in a watery ascendant and Saturn is in Pisces, it harms the wife; and Saturn in the fifth house brings the death of a child; a son, in this position, may also take the father’s land.
Hindi meaning
लग्न या चन्द्र से पंचम और सप्तम भाव का स्वामी शुभ स्थान में हो या शुभग्रहों से दृष्ट हो, तो सन्तान और पत्नी की समृद्धि जाननी चाहिए; अन्यथा विपरीत। जब सूर्य जल-लग्न में हो और शनि मीन में हो, तो पत्नी को हानि; और पंचम भाव में शनि सन्तान की मृत्यु लाता है; इस स्थिति में पुत्र पिता की भूमि भी ले सकता है।

English meaning
With fiery planets, she is widowed; with a mix of planets in the seventh, remarried. When a weak malefic is in the seventh, she is set aside by her own husband, though aspected by benefics. When Venus and Mercury are in each other’s navāṁśa, or the Moon joins them in the seventh, a woman becomes attached to another — with her husband’s own consent.
Hindi meaning
अग्नि-तत्त्व ग्रहों से विधवा होती है; सप्तम में मिश्रित ग्रहों से पुनर्विवाहित। सप्तम में निर्बल पापग्रह हो, तो शुभग्रहों से दृष्ट होते हुए भी पति द्वारा त्यागी जाती है। शुक्र-बुध एक-दूसरे के नवांश में हों, या चन्द्र सप्तम में उनसे युत हो, तो स्त्री पति की ही सहमति से किसी अन्य के प्रति आसक्त हो जाती है।

English meaning
When a malefic is in the eighth house, widowhood is declared at the age corresponding to the navāṁśa in which the eighth-lord stands. When benefics are in the houses of wealth, her own death (rather than her husband’s) occurs. Virgo indicates connection with a serpent; Leo, few children when the Moon is there.

English meaning
This should be reckoned by the conjunctions, aspects and other factors of the horā and navāṁśa lords standing on the same ground (as the eighth house).

By fire, water, or a mixture of the two, the corpse ends in ashes, decay, or desiccation; by planets of the serpent-group standing in the eighth house, it ends in excreta. Thus the fate of the corpse should be considered, as taught in this treatise composed by Pṛthu(yaśas); the further course and its results are likewise to be considered.
Hindi meaning

Sanskrit
पृथु विरचितम् अन्यैः शास्त्रम् एतत् समस्तं तदनु लघु मयेदं तत् प्रदेशार्थम् एव । कृतम् इह हि समर्थं धी विषाणामत्वे ममयदि हयद् उक्तं सज् जनैः क्षम्यतां तत् ॥ ७॥

English meaning
This whole science was composed at length by others; this small work of mine is made only for the purpose of an indication (a concise guide) of that. If, in this task fit for the horns of the intellect, anything of mine has been ill-spoken, let good people pardon it.

यह सम्पूर्ण शास्त्र अन्य आचार्यों द्वारा विस्तार से रचा गया है; मेरा यह लघु ग्रन्थ केवल उसकी संक्षिप्त संकेत-मात्र के लिए बनाया गया है। बुद्धि की सीमाओं के इस कार्य में यदि मुझसे कुछ अनुचित कहा गया हो, तो सज्जन उसे क्षमा करें।

A plea regarding the transmission and any errors of the text
Sanskrit
ग्रन्थस्यया प्रचरतोऽस्य विनाशम् एति केख्व्यात् बहु श्रित मुखाधिगम क्रमेण । यद् वा मया कुकृतम् अल्पम् इहाकृतं वा कार्यं तदत्र विदुषा परिहृत्यरागम् ॥ ८॥

English meaning
As this book circulates, whatever in it may perish or be lost — through one word in this line whose reading is uncertain in the source and is not rendered here — in the course of its transmission through the mouths of the widely learned; and whatever error, however small, may have been committed or left undone by me here—let the learned reader, setting aside partiality, correct that.
Hindi meaning
यह ग्रन्थ प्रचलित होते हुए, अनेक विद्वानों के मुख से चलने के क्रम में, जो कुछ इसमें नष्ट हो जाए (इस पंक्ति का एक शब्द स्रोत में अनिश्चित है और यहाँ अनूदित नहीं किया गया है); अथवा मुझसे यहाँ जो भी छोटी-सी त्रुटि हुई हो या छूट गई हो — विद्वान् पाठक पक्षपात त्यागकर उसे सुधार लें।
