निशायाः मुग्धसंज्ञाश्च घटिका विंशतिश्च याः । सूर्योदये च या सन्ध्या खण्डाख्या द/सनाडिका ॥ ४६॥

The Sandhya at the time of sunrise is called Khanda and the Sandhya at the time of sunset is said to be Sudh. Both of these Sandhyas are of 10 Ghatikas each.

english translation

अस्तकाले च या सन्ध्या सुधाख्या दशनाडिका । पूर्णमुग्धघटीमाने द्विगुणे तिथिभिर्भजेत् ॥ ४७॥

If the birth is in Purna, or Mugdha, its past Ghatikas should be multiplied by 2 and the product should be divided by 15.

english translation

तथा खण्डसुधाघट्यौ चतुर्घ्ने तिथिभिर्भजेत् । लब्धं वर्षादिकं मानं सूर्यादीनां खचारिणाम् ॥ ४८॥

The figure so arrived at should be converted into years, months etc. By multiplying it by the serial number of Sūrya and other Grahas in their normal order, we will get the Kaal Dasha of these Grahas.

english translation

एकादिसंख्यया निघ्नं दशामानं पृथक् क्रमात् । राहुकेतुयुतानां च नवानां कालसंज्ञकम् ॥ ४९॥

If the birth is during Sandhya, then its past Ghatikas should be multiplied by 4 and the product divided by 15. The figure so arrived at in terms of years, months etc. should be multiplied by the serial number of Sūrya and the other Grahas to get the Kaal Dasha of all the nine Grahas.

english translation

रात्रौ लग्नाश्रिताद्राशेर्दिने लग्नेश्वराश्रिताम् । सन्ध्यायां वित्तभावस्थान्नेया चक्रदशा बुधैः ॥ ५०॥

If the birth is at night, the Dasha will commence from Lagn Rāśi. If the birth is during the day, the Dasha will start from the Rāśi, in which the Lord of Lagn is placed.
