Starting from 11 signs and 16 degrees original: "ekādaśarāśiṣoḍaśāṃśa" up to 3 degrees of the sign of Shiva the sign of the Archer/Sagittarius, this is less than 12 signs. For someone whose degrees and minutes are up to 14 degrees, it should be known as greater than 12 signs. Similarly, from 5 signs and 16 degrees up to 15, it is less than 5; starting from 6 signs up to the fourth part, it should be known as greater than 6 signs.
5. Regarding the duration of total darkness marda: the period of totality in an eclipse and the half-duration of the eclipse: with one's own planets multiplied by two and equal to the degrees of the "arm" sine of the arc, the result is in minutes of time pala: a unit of time equal to 24 seconds. That is the direction; it is either subtracted or added or subtracted
based on the Sun. If it is less, it is subtracted; otherwise, if it is more, the two durations sthiti: the half-duration of the eclipse are established. In the delusion/calculation of the contact and the end, it is the same for the duration of totality to be subtracted.
6. Mountain/Seven At the end of the lunar day tithi: a lunar day, here referring to the exact moment of opposition or conjunction is the time of the middle of the eclipse for the planet in the sky. That time, subtracted and added by its own two half-durations, gives the start and end of the eclipse.
The times of the beginning and end of totality are determined by subtracting and adding the half-duration of totality. 7. Eclipse/Obscuration The portion of the diameter obscured is multiplied by the duration and divided by the total obscuration... 25...
8. Regarding the deflection of the eclipse valana: the angle between the ecliptic and the celestial equator/horizon, used to orient the eclipse on the disk: Note The Sun increased or decreased by three signs. In a lunar eclipse, the degrees of the solstice ayana: the precession or tropical longitude are used. With the parts of the "mountain-arrow-moon" the number 157
the deflection is calculated. From the direction of the Sun and the middle of the sky... 9. From signs down to seconds The deflection is like the movement of the planets obtained from the division of the subject.
When multiplied by the equinoctial shadow palabhā: the shadow of a gnomon at noon on the equinox at the inclination/meridian distance, it is North or South... 10. The purification saṃskṛti: correction or refinement of the deflection is usually done by multiplying by both. From the sum of the radii
from the obscured part here, the direction of the obscuration should be known. If the six parts are covered, then the directions are purified. 11. The covered part is said to be joined with half of one...
SouthNorth Left and right, as produced by the northern deflection the direction of the arrow/latitude. These are the directions of the eclipse at the middle of the planet. At the middle of the planet
The difference between the two parts of the obscured portion, when halved, is the remainder. That, combined with the multiplier of the day, divided by two and five, and multiplied by seven. Then the square root, diminished by its own sixth part... the result is the duration of totality in hours and minutes ghaṭikā: 24-minute units.
---
The end of the lunar day, minus the duration of contact and totality, is the beginning of the eclipse. That same time, when added, is the release end of the eclipse. The moment of being covered is the immersion; the moment of being uncovered is the emergence.
---
The tropical Sun sāyana: longitude including precession increased or decreased by three signs is the celestial sphere. This is the meaning. 9.
The middle is from the end of the lunar day. At that time, the difference between the observer's view and the sky... the sine of the zenith distance... or it should be taken as given. 9.
At the inclination... of which the Sun's sign is multiplied... the state of being at the zenith... for the questioner... above the path of the immortals the sky... until the end of the inclination...
Here, from one's own... then by one's own duration, the time of release... should not be given, it is to be divided. Thus, by half of one's own duration... if the contact etc. occurs... then the direction of the release... this is the meaning. 4.

The fifth part of the degrees of inclination... the arc of the inclination is the remainder. Multiplied by thirty and divided by five, the result is degrees. The remainder multiplied by sixty and divided by five, the result is minutes. Thus, the degrees etc. are found. With the parts 157, here the degrees of the solstice should be brought. 4.
In the direction facing the middle of the planet, if there is no obscuration, what is the remainder? Therefore, there would be no deflection. 3.
There is no difference in the obscured part. The contact etc. which occurs in the Moon, when the remainder of the day has passed, or as in the case of the Sun at night... it should be in order. This is the calculation of the deflection for the western inclination. In the Moon, when the day is ending, the contact etc. occurs; then the difference from midday should be calculated. If it occurs in the remainder of the day, it is the western inclination. Similarly, if it occurs in the remainder of the night, the difference from midnight should be calculated. In the remainder of the night, it is the eastern inclination. If both deflections are in the same direction, they are added; if different, they are subtracted. 3.
---
Thus the deflection at the inclination is produced. But that deflection is called South/North... the contact etc. should be known. For the Moon, we calculate the direction of inclination... and that is from the west of the day. 10. Then at the end of the day, at night, there would be no inclination. 5.
