आश्लेषाअर्धाद्दक्षिणं उत्तरं अयनं रवेर् धनिष्ठाअद्यम् । नूनं कदा चिदासीद्येनौक्तं पूर्वशास्त्रेषु ॥ ३-०१ ॥

sanskrit

At one time, the Sun’s southward course commenced on his reaching the middle of Āśleṣā (the ninth constellation) and its northward course on its reaching the beginning of Dhaniṣṭhā (the twenty-third constellation). This must have been the case as we find it so recorded in ancient books.
