Vilagna simply means special lagna. It can refer to any special lagna. Vilagna

by itself can refer to Ghatilagna and several others, BUT it is being used as a

part of the expression " horavilagna " here. So two terms are mentioned: lagna and

horavilagna. If one separates hora and vilagna into two things, then we will

have three things. But that is ruled out due to " bhyaam " following them! The

ending -bhyaam is for dwivachana (dual case). In Sanskrit, there is a dual case

in addition to singular and plural and that is used here. Thus, there are two

things being mentioned: lagna and horavilagna.

 

Hence, there aren't three words here, but two words. One is lagna and the second

is horavilagna (one word).

 

Quite obviously, the special lagna normally known as horalagna is being referred

to as horavilagna, which is perfectly normal and fine in the Sanskrit literary

style. Without any doubt, Parasara is talking about " lagna and horalagna " . There

is neither a mistake nor an ambiguity here and things are crystal clear.

 

Best regards,

Narasimha

with 8L. This could be one of the reason why the three pair rule does not work

all the time, as we have not been considering vighati lagna over lagna in pair

three. This is my humble opinion, from the observation of several cases. Other

learned members can share their views)
