Parvata (mount)
A fleshy pad of the palm, named for a graha: Jupiter under the index finger, Saturn under the middle, the Sun under the ring, Mercury under the little finger, Venus at the base of the thumb, the Moon on the outer edge, and two of Mars. Full and firm gives the graha's qualities; flat shows them lacking, overdeveloped in excess.

What is the rule behind Parvata?
The mounts: Jupiter under the index, Saturn under the middle, the Sun under the ring, Mercury under the little finger, Venus at the thumb's base, the Moon on the outer edge, two Mars mounts with the plain of Mars between; full and firm gives a graha's qualities, flat lacks them, overdeveloped exaggerates them.
