is another reading in the 4th Pada, The translation will be “or when the Sun transits the Rasi and Amsa denoted by the aggregate of the figures …….”

Sloka 14 : Subtract the figures of Yamakantaka from those of the lord of the rising sign apd find out the Rasi and its Navamsa indicated by the difference, When Jupiter comes to occupy this Navamsa in the Rasi thus found, death will take place without doubt.
Sloka 15 : Find out the sign of the zodiac indicated by the sum-total of the figures for the lords of the 6th, the 12th and the 8th Bhavas. When Saturn is in this house or in a triangular sign from it, death has to be apprehended.
Sloka 16 : Find the Rasi, etc., occupied by the lord of the decanate that is rising. When Jupiter transits this position or its Trikona, the native meets with death. When Saturn transits the house owned by the lord of the decanate of the 8th house, or its Trikona, the same event may be predicted.
Sloka 17 : Find the weakest of the three sets ot planets, viz., (1) the lord of the Lagna and the lord of the 8th house and (2) the lords of the 22ml decanate, both counted from the Lagna and the Moon, and (3) the Moon and Mandi.

Sloka 26 : Ascertain how far Mandi is removed from the lord of the 8th house. When Satufn in his trapsit arrives at tbe Rasi so far removed from Mandi, death may happen; so say the revered preceptors.
