**Ahargana & Mean Planetary Longitude Equation**

$$
\bar{\lambda}_{\text{graha}} = \left( \frac{\text{Ahargaṇa} \times B_{\text{graha}}}{1577917828} \times 360^\circ \right) \pmod{360^\circ}
$$

*Exact rational multiplication before division eliminates 64-bit floating-point accumulation drift over 5,127+ years of Kaliyuga.*

### Python 3 Verification Suite
```python
def compute_madhyama(ahargana, bhagana, yuga_days=1577917828):
    mean_rev = (ahargana * bhagana) / yuga_days
    mean_deg = (mean_rev % 1.0) * 360.0

```

**Execution Result (Python 3.11.15, 2026-10-07):**
```
Input: Ahargana = 1,865,420 civil days since the Kaliyuga epoch
compute_madhyama(1865420, 4320000) → Sūrya mean longitude: 42.903923°
compute_madhyama(1865420, 57753336) → Chandra mean longitude: 70.821161°

$$
p(\theta) = p_{\text{even}} + (p_{\text{odd}} - p_{\text{even}})|\sin\theta|, \quad \Delta\theta_{\text{manda}} = \arcsin\left(\frac{p(\theta) \sin\theta}{360^\circ}\right)
$$

```python
import math
def manda_correction(kendra_deg, p_even, p_odd):
    rad = math.radians(kendra_deg)
    p = p_even + (p_odd - p_even) * abs(math.sin(rad))

- **सः**: वही (ग्रह/स्थिति)

**Translation:** That body which stands in the seventeenth degree of Taurus, with southern latitude greater than two degrees, is said to split Rohiṇī’s cart. The verse states a geometric gate: longitude window plus a latitude threshold.

**Polar to Ecliptic Transformation**

$$
\sin\delta = \sin\beta \cos\epsilon + \cos\beta \sin\epsilon \sin\lambda, \quad \alpha = \arctan\left(\frac{\sin\lambda \cos\epsilon - \tan\beta \sin\epsilon}{\cos\lambda}\right)

**Translation:** Take the minutes of arc of the Moon diminished by the Sun (the elongation). Divided by nine hundred they yield the “white” measure—the illuminated portion in a twelve-part scale. That quantity, multiplied by the Moon’s disk in aṅgulas and divided by twelve, is the true illuminated measure for the moment.

### Mathematical Formulation
**Crescent Phase Width & Horn Angle**

$$
W_{\text{crescent}} = \frac{D_{\text{moon}}}{2} (1 - \cos(\lambda_m - \lambda_s)), \quad \tan\theta_{\text{tilt}} = \frac{\Delta\delta}{\Delta\alpha \cos\delta_m}
