The critical junction (gaṇḍānta) of the lunar day (tithi), constellation (nakṣatra), and ascendant (lagna) is considered to be of three types. At the time of birth, journey, marriage, or similar events, it can prove to be fatal.

O Maitreya, the period of four nāḍīs (96 minutes) - two nāḍīs (48 minutes) preceding and two nāḍīs (48 minutes) succeeding - at the junction of the Pūrṇā and Nandā lunar days (tithi) is called tithi-gaṇḍānta.

Similarly, the period of four nāḍīs (96 minutes) - two nāḍīs preceding and two nāḍīs succeeding - at the junction of Revatī and Aśvinī (Dāśra) nakṣatras, Āśleṣā (Sārpa) and Maghā nakṣatras, and Jyeṣṭhā (Śakra) and Mūla nakṣatras, is called nakṣatra-gaṇḍānta.

At the junction of the ascendant (lagna) signs Mina and Aja (Pisces and Aries), Karki and Hari (Cancer and Leo), and Ali and Cāpa (Scorpio and Sagittarius), the lagna-gaṇḍānta is a period measured by one ghaṭī (24 minutes) - specifically, half a ghaṭī (12 minutes) preceding and half a ghaṭī (12 minutes) succeeding the junction.

Among these periods, that which is called "abhuktamūla" is regarded as a major source of impediments. At the conjunction point of the Indra (Jyeṣṭhā) and Rakṣasa (Mūla) constellations, it consists of five and eight "ghaṭikās" respectively.

Now, I will explain the ritual (śāntividhi) for appeasing the ill effects for a child born in the Gaṇḍānta period. The father should perform this ritual for the child born during the Gaṇḍānta period on the last day of the postnatal impurity (sūtaka).
शान्तिंशुभेऽह्नि वा कुर्यात् पश्येत् तावन्न तं शिशुम् ।
वृषभं तिथिगण्डान्ते नक्षत्रे धनुमेव च ॥७॥

The father should perform the appeasement ritual (śānti) either on the last day of postnatal impurity (sūtaka) or on an auspicious day. Until that ritual is performed, he should not see that child. For a birth in the "tithigaṇḍānta" (lunar day junction), a bull is offered, and for a birth in the "nakṣatragaṇḍānta" (constellation junction), indeed a bow (is offered).

One should donate gold at the end of the "lagna-gaṇḍānta" (the transitional period between a zodiac sign and a lunar mansion) for the pacification of its associated faults. Furthermore, if a child is born during the first part of this period, a purificatory bath should be performed for both the child and the father.

However, if the child is born in the second part (of the "lagna-gaṇḍānta"), a purificatory bath should be performed for both the child and the mother. This ritual should be carried out with gold, or half its value, according to one's financial capacity, O best among the twice-born (dvija). Additionally, one should perform rituals related to the lunar day (tithi) and stellar mansion (nakshatra) as appropriate, accompanied by appropriate clothing (or offerings of clothing).

One should offer worship with appropriate services, according to one's capacity (śakti), for the cessation of discord (kalaha). At the conclusion of this worship (pūjā), a fire ritual (homa) should be performed according to prescribed rules, using sacred firewood (samidh), cooked food (anna), and clarified butter (ājya).

Afterwards, one should feed Brahmins. In this way, one is freed from defects. One attains longevity, health, and prosperity day by day.
