Verse 13.3
हित्वार्कं सुनफानफादुरुधुराः स्वान्त्योभयस्थैर्ग्रहैः शीतांशोः कथितोऽन्यथा तु बहुभिः केमद्रुमोऽन्यैस्त्वसौ ।
केन्द्रे शीतकरेऽथ वा ग्रहयुते केमद्रुमो नेष्यते केचित् केन्द्र नवांशकेषु च वदन्त्युक्तिः प्रसिद्धा न ते ॥ ३॥

With the exception of the Sun; Sunapha, Anapha, and Durudhura are indicated with the planets situated in the 2nd, 12th, or both houses from the Moon, respectively. But otherwise, with the many others (combinations) is Kemadruma Yoga. But if that (a planet minus the Sun and Moon) is in an angle or when the Moon is joined to a planet, it is not to be sanctioned as a Kemadruma yoga. Some others say, (the Kemadruma is void when a planet) is in the navamsha portions of the angles. But those (exceptions) are not an authoritative statement.
