This is the intention: not all regions go to destruction; when the triad of asterisms beginning with Kṛttikā is pierced, among the regions mentioned for the navel (named Sāketa, Mithilā, Campā, and so on), that region whose phonemes, sounds, and so forth are pierced by the five malefics goes to destruction. Regarding "In Kṛttikā": when there is piercing in the four asterisms Kṛttikā, Puṣya, Revatī, and Punarvasu, there is piercing in order of the castes—Brāhmaṇa, Kṣatriya, Vaiśya, and Śūdra. As in: when Kṛttikā is pierced, it pierces the Brāhmaṇa. And if it is caused by a benefic, then the auspicious or inauspicious result of the Brāhmaṇas is to be understood.
