Muhūrta Cintāmaṇi

What this text is

The primary electional text in continuous pañcāṅga use — more of this app’s registered muhūrta decisions trace to it than to any other single work.

Śuddhi chapters (weekday-tithi-nakṣatra yogas), saṁskāra elections, the marriage section with the kūṭa matching system, journeys, house-building, and the transit/ghāta material; read everywhere with the Pīyūṣadhārā commentary.

Its role in this app

The most decision-dense text in our register: the agnivāsa mapping is its verse 2.36; the sum-13 yoga’s naming and the seven dagdha pairs are 1.6/1.8; hutāśana is 1.8; the marriage and solar-degree bāṇas with their remedies are 6.72–74; homāhuti’s live-count anchor is 2.35 with the commentary’s worked example pinned in our tests; the ghāta-cakra rows are 11.27–33 — whose own commentary marks those rules "rootless" and scopes them away from marriage, a reservation we ship inside the response; the sarvārtha-siddhi table is verse-verified at 1.28–29; gaṇḍa-mūla junction widths are its nakṣatra section 53; tārā-bala’s pāda-level softening is 4.13. Its marriage section contains no "18 guṇas required" verse — the market’s most-repeated matching claim has no seat here — and it attaches progeny loss to bhakūṭa, not nāḍī.
