Pinda Sadhana in the AshtakaVarg

1-4. The Sage said. O Brahmin! After completing the Trikon and Ekadhipatya Shodhana in the AshtakaVargas of all the Grahas, the rectified number should be multiplied by the measure of the Rāśi. If there be any Grah in any Rāśi, the rectified number should be multiplied by the measure of the Grah also. Then, after multiplying the rectified number of each Rāśi, the products should be added up. The total so arrived at will be Pinda of that Grah. The multiples of Rāśis are 10 for Vrishabh and Simh, 8 for Mithun and Vrischik, 7 for Mesh and Tul, 6 for Makar and Kanya. The multipliers of the remaining Rāśis are the same, as their numbers. (Rāśiman Chakr. Mesh 7, Vris 10, Mith 8, Kark 4, Simh 10, Kany 6, Tula 7, Vrsk 8, Dhan 9, Maka 5, Kumb 11, Mina 12) The multipliers of Grahas are 10 for Guru, 3 for Mangal, 7 for Śukr, 6 for Budh, Sūrya, Candr and Śani. (Grahman Chakr. Sūrya 5, Candr 5, Mangal 8, Budh 5, Guru 10, Śukr 7, Śani 5)
