O sage, you have thus stated that the results are determined by the time of birth. But if someone's birth time is unknown, how can their results be ascertained?

If there is any method to discern a person's past actions (karma), whether good or bad, then Your Honor ought to explain it.

O Brāhmin, you have asked well, as your mind is intent on benefiting the world. Out of affection, I will tell you the results for those whose birth time is unknown.

Whatever is unknown regarding the year, ayana (half-year), season (ṛtu), month, fortnight, lunar day (tithi), lunar mansion (nakṣatra), zodiacal part (bhā), and so forth, its measure can be ascertained from the ascendant (lagna) of the astrological query (praśna).

5.
When Jupiter (guru) is situated in the twelfth divisional part (dvādaśāṃśa) of the query's ascendant (lagna) sign, one should declare the birth (janma). The ayana (half-year) is Northern (saumya) if the ascendant (lagna) falls in its first half, and Southern (yāmya) if it falls in its latter half.

6.
The season (ṛtu) is determined by the lords of the ascendant's (lagna) decanate (dṛkāṇa) and sign/nakṣatra (ṛkṣa), which include the Moon (śaśi), Rāhu, and others. Summer (grīṣma), however, is determined by the Sun (bhānu), while the other seasons are determined by Saturn (śani), Venus (śukra), Mars (kuja), Moon (indu), Mercury (jña), and Jupiter (jīva).

7.
However, in case of a contradiction (virodha) between the ayana (half-year) and the season (ṛtu), Mercury (budha), the Moon (candra), and Jupiter (surācārya) are to be mutually interchanged with Mars (kuja), Venus (śukra), and Saturn (śanaiścara).

O twice-born one (dvija), the month is designated as the former (part) when it is in the first half of a drekkana, and as the other (part) when it is in the latter half. The lunar day (tithi) should be determined proportionally, corresponding to the Sun's divisional portion.

9.
The calculated time (iṣṭakāla), which is indeed equal to the time of birth (janmakāla) based on that [previous calculation], once that is known, one should then ascertain the positions of the planets (graha) and the houses (bhāva) and declare their effects.

Jupiter (guru) returns to the same zodiacal sign (rāśi) after twelve years. Therefore, O sage (mune), in which revolution should its year be understood?

11.
O best among twice-born ones (dvijottama), if there is uncertainty about the questioner's year, then one should repeatedly add twelve (years) based on their estimated age.

कल्प्यो वयोऽनुमानेन वत्सरः पूर्ववत् ततः ॥१२॥

12.
Even if doubt arises in that matter, Jupiter, when located in a trine (5th or 9th house) from the ascendant (lagna), should be assumed to determine the year by estimation of age, as was done previously.

13.
O venerable one (bhagavan), after ascertaining the month along with the Sun's degree, how is the precise knowledge of time (kālajñāna) determined? Please explain this to me with a mind devoted to bestowing grace upon the people.

14.
O best among the twice-born (dvija-sattama)! On the day that is equal to the desired solar degree from the moment of the Sun's ingress (saṅkrānti) into a new sign, the Sun's position at sunrise should be calculated, and also the difference between that (calculated) Sun and the desired Sun's position.
कलीकृत्य स्वषण्निघ्नं स्फुटार्कगतिभाजितम् ।
लब्धंघट्यादिमानं यत् तावान् सूर्योदयात् परम् ॥१५॥
लब्धंघट्यादिमानं यत् तावान् सूर्योदयात् परम् ॥१५॥
15. kalīkṛtya svaṣaṇnighnaṃ sphuṭārkagatibhājitam .
labdhaṃghaṭyādimānaṃ yat tāvān sūryodayāt param.
labdhaṃghaṭyādimānaṃ yat tāvān sūryodayāt param.
15.

labdham ghaṭī-ādi-mānam yat tāvān sūrya-udayāt param
labdham ghaṭī-ādi-mānam yat tāvān sūrya-udayāt param
15.
Having converted (the difference from the previous verse) into minutes (kalīkṛtya), and multiplied it by six, and then divided by the speed of the true Sun, the resulting value (labdham), which is a measure in units like ghaṭīs (ghaṭyādimāna), indicates that much time after sunrise.
पूर्वं जन्मेष्टकालो हि क्रमाज् ज्ञेयो विपश्चिता ।
साधितौदयिकादर्कादिष्टेऽर्केऽनिकहीनके ॥१६॥
साधितौदयिकादर्कादिष्टेऽर्केऽनिकहीनके ॥१६॥
16. pūrvaṃ janmeṣṭakālo hi kramāj jñeyo vipaścitā .

16.

| sādhita audayikāt arkāt iṣṭe arke anikahīnake
| sādhita audayikāt arkāt iṣṭe arke anikahīnake
16.
Indeed, the iṣṭakāla (time from sunrise to birth) of a past birth should be sequentially known by a wise person. This is calculated from the sun's position at its calculated rising until the sun's position at the desired moment of birth, after subtracting the 'anika' adjustment.
