Adhyaya 51 — Yaksha Injunctions: Graha-Children and Female Spirits Causing Domestic and Ritual Disruptions
शुभे द्रुततरं कार्यमिति प्राह प्रजापतिः ।
गण्डान्तेषु स्थितश्चान्यो मुहूर्तार्धं द्विजोत्तम ॥
śubhe drutataraṃ kāryam iti prāha prajāpatiḥ | gaṇḍānteṣu sthitaś cānyo muhūrtārdhaṃ dvijottama ||
ปรชาปติกล่าวว่า “เมื่อเครื่องหมายเป็นมงคล พึงกระทำกิจให้รวดเร็วยิ่งขึ้น” โอผู้ประเสริฐในหมู่ทวิชะ อีกภาวะหนึ่งคงอยู่ที่ปลายแห่งคัณฑะ (gaṇḍa) เป็นเวลาครึ่งมุหูรตะ

Auspicious opportunity should be met with prompt, decisive action; dharma is not only restraint but also timely performance of right action when conditions support it.
Ancillary ācāra/muhūrta guidance; not pancalakṣaṇa narrative.
‘Gaṇḍa’ as a knot/junction suggests liminal instability; half-muhūrta indicates that subtle conditions fluctuate. The teaching implies sensitivity to transitional states—externally (time) and internally (mind).
