On Tuesday, Time is in the West. On Wednesday, he is in the Northwest corner. original: "vāyava koṇe". This is the direction of Vayu, the wind god.

On Thursday, Time is in the North. On Friday, he is in the Northeast corner. original: "īśāna koṇe". The direction of Ishana/Shiva.

On Saturday, Time is in the East. In the Southeast original: "vaho", likely a shorthand or corruption for "vahnau", the direction of the fire-god Agni, Time does not travel.

The Root of Journeys

original: "athādimūlam". This section shifts from avoiding 'Time' to identifying the best days for success in specific directions.

On Saturday and Monday, one should travel to the East to be victorious. On Sunday, Kr travel to the South.
