Take the Ashtak Varg Kundali of Surya and find out the benefic dots. The Rasi, which is ninth from the Rasi occupied by Surya is related to ones father. The Shodhya Pind should be multiplied by the said figure of benefic dots and the resultant figure should be divided by 27. When Sani transits the particular asterism, as denoted by the remainder in the above process will cause death of the natives father. The stars in Kon position to the earlier mentioned star will also function similarly. It should be a Chidra Dasha to cause such an effect.

The transit of Sani in the 9^th Rasi from Candr Rasi may also cause the native lose his father. For this, either Dasha of Surya, or Candr should also be in simultaneous operation.

Note the lord of the Navamsh holding the 4^th lord. In the Dasha of the said Navamsh lord, the natives father may die. Alternatively, death of father can occur in the Dasha of the lord of the fourth Bhava.

Note the owner of the eighth Bhava from the ninth Bhava (i.e. Bandhu Bhava). When such Dasha of a Grah posited in Lagn, the native shall and at no time later than that, perform the last rites of his father.
