Fol. 2: Bower manuscript 4-4-1. If two fours and a one fall certainly for someone: loss of kin, distress, and great affliction will be yours. // 1 And a very sharp conflict, and an adverse asterism is yours; nor does your ancestral inheritance or occupation endure. // 2 And whatever you have conceived in your distressed heart, think of some other matter, for its realization does not exist. // 3 For about five years you will suffer and gain nothing. And this is your identifying mark: a mole is upon your back. // 4 1-4-4. But where a one is first and two fours occur: you will attain the succession of all undertakings and wealth. // 5 And auspicious to you is your family deity, Mahādeva, the great lord; perform his praise, worship, and vigil. // 6 To you \[…\] a great gain will occur, there is no doubt. And this is your identifying mark: you have a wound \[on your …\]. // 7 And in a dream you had a great dispute \[…\]. 4-1-4. A four, a one in the middle, and at the end a four. // 8 Whatever matter you have considered \[…\] / and whatever matter you think of, that too will bring you increase and good fortune. // 9 You do not respect your mother, father, friends, or your own kin; nor do you worship the elders, the deity, or Maheśvara. // 10 Therefore, all the wealth you have thought of does not materialize; \[yet if he is\] pleased, he will bring about peace and ease of heart for you. // 11 3-3-4. Affection produced from business, reunion with friends and kin, and release from all sorrow you, desiring prosperity, will obtain. // 12 Without a doubt, from here in the sixth month you will be very wealthy; what was contemplated by you in thought—its gain is beyond doubt. // 13 Without obstacle, all that will arrive with ease. And this is your identifying mark: you have a wound on the back of your head. // 14 - [Previous: 45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.45) - [Next: 47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.47) ## Linked texts (1) - [Bower Manuscript](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower.46) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.med.yoga.bower~en-mt.46) · Pramāṇa
