Ocean of Victory in War

In the event of the rise of the vowel A original: "akāra", the destruction of A occurs. From the rise of the vowel U, the destruction of I occurs. In the same way, when the vowel E rises, it is for the sake of wealth. When O has risen, the same applies to the triad of O. When M has completed its rise, this is the timing for the rise of the group tna. This has been shown through a general method. Having heard of the specific distinctions even within those lunar dates original: "tithis", I shall tell you of them, O Parvati. Everywhere, this knowledge shines specifically through these beneficial methods, especially in this great teaching on Deceiving Time original: "Kalavanchana"; a tantric practice to prolong life or foresee death.

Thus ends the first chapter, titled "The Science of Breath," in the "Wheel of Increase" composed by Shri Punjaraja. 1

O Lord of the Gods, you have explained the science of breath original: "Svarodaya" to me in detail. Now I wish to hear about the repository in the lunar orb original: "shashimandale", and whatever is well-known regarding gains and losses, victory and defeat. O Lord of the Gods, you whose banner is the bull original: "Vrishabhadhvaja"; an epithet for Shiva, tell me in detail the characteristics of the planets, the zodiac signs, and the constellations. O Great Lord, speak of the divisions of exaltation and debilitation.

The Lord said:
Listen, my dear, to the complete essence of the zodiac signs. I shall tell you everything about the planets and constellations. It is said there are twelve signs resting upon the zodiac circle.
