Chapter 10 — Antidotes for Evils
1. Those are the evils (due to a native). I now narrate the antidotes for such evils as well, which will be helpful to assess the extent of inauspiciousness.
2. Should one among Budh, Guru and Śukr be in an angle from Lagn, all evils are destroyed, as Sūrya eliminates darkness.
3. Just as a single reverential obeisance before Lord Shiva, the Trident holder frees one from all sins, a single, but strong Guru in Lagn will ward off all the evils.
4. Lagn Lord is singly capable of counteracting all evils, if he is strongly placed in an angle, just as Lord Shiva, the holder of the Bow destroyed the three cities, built of gold, silver and iron for the demons by Maya.
5. All evils are destroyed, if a benefic drishties Lagn of one born during the night in the bright half. Similarly a malefic‟s Drishti on Lagn of one born during day time in the dark half.
6. Sūrya in Vyaya will confer a hundred-year life span on one born in Tul Lagn.
7. It will prove auspicious for the mother as well as the native, if Mangal joins, or is drishtied by Guru.
8. If malefics are surrounded by benefics, while angles, or trines are themselves benefic-occupied, evils disappear soon. Not only this, evils will not follow from the Bhavas concerned.
