15.1
ekasthaiś catura ādibhir bala yutair jātāḥ pṛthag vīryagaiḥ/śākyā jīvika bhikṣu vṛddha carakā nirgrantha vanya āśanāḥ/
māheya jña guru kṣapā kara sita prābhākarīnaiḥ kramāt/pravrajyā balibhiḥ samā parajitais tat svāmibhiḥ pracyutiḥ//(no name)
From four or more strong planets situated in one [house], are born / Buddhists, Ājīvikas, Bhikṣus, Vṛddhas, Carakas, Nirgranthas, and forest-feeders, / according to Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, the Moon, Venus, the Sun, and Saturn respectively, who possess strength. / Renunciation corresponds to the strongest; by those defeated [in planetary war], there is a fall [from the vows] due to their lords.
15.2
ravi kupta karair adīkṣitā balibhis tad gata bhaktayo narāḥ/
abhiyācita mātra dīkṣitā nihatair anya nirīkṣitair api//(vaitālīya)
When the planets have their rays overpowered by the Sun, men are not initiated, but devoted to those [orders] when they are strong; / they are initiated merely on request when [the planets are] defeated and also aspected by others.
15.3
janma īśo anyair yady adṛṣṭo arka putraṃ paśyaty ārkir janmapaṃ vā bala ūnam/
dīkṣāṃ prāpnoty ārki dṛk kāṇa saṃsthe bhauma ārky aṃśe saura dṛṣṭe ca candre//(mālinī)
If the lord of birth, unseen by others, aspects the son of the Sun, or Saturn aspects the lord of birth who is lacking in strength, / one attains initiation; / and when the Moon occupies a decan of Saturn, in a degree of Mars or Saturn, and is aspected by Saturn.

sura guru śaśi horā sva ārke dṛṣṭāsu dharme gurur atha nṛpatīnāṃ yogajas tīrtha kṛt syāt/
navama bhavana saṃsthe mandage anyair dṛṣṭe bhavati narapa yoge dīkṣitaḥ pārthiva indraḥ//(mālinī)E15
When Jupiter, the Moon, and the ascendant are aspected by Saturn, and Jupiter is in the ninth house, a person born of a royal combination becomes a founder of a holy path; / when Saturn occupies the ninth house and is aspected by others under a king's combination, an emperor becomes an initiate.
