उक्ता ये मारकास्तेषु प्रबलो मुख्यमारकः । तदवस्थानुसारेण मृतिं वा कष्टमादिशेत् ॥ २१॥

Thus these are Marakas and are primarily related to bring death upon the native. According to their dispositions there may be death, or difficulties.

रहुश्चेदथवा केतुर्लग्ने कामेऽष्टमे व्यये । मारकेशान्मदे वाऽपि मारकेशेन संयुतः ॥ २२॥

Rahu and Ketu, as Marakas. If Rahu, or Ketu are placed in Tanu, Yuvati, Randhr, or Vyaya Bhava, or happen to be in the 7th from a Marak Lord, or are placed with such a Grah, they acquire powers of killing in their major, or sub-periods.

मारकः स च विज्ञेयः स्वदशान्तर्दशास्वपि । मकरे वृश्चिके जन्म राहुस्तस्य मृतिप्रदः ॥ २३॥

For one born in Makar, or in Vrischik, Rahu will be a Marak. Should Rahu be in Ari, Randhr, or Vyaya Bhava, he will give difficulties in his Dasha periods.

लग्नात् तृतीयभावे तु बलिना रविणा युते । राजहेतुश्च मरणं तस्य ज्ञेयं द्विजोत्तम ॥ २५॥
