Chapter 10 · A Woman's Body Marks
दशमोऽध्यायः
सीमन्ते च ललाटे वा कण्ठे वापि नतभ्रुवः ।लोम्नामावर्त्तको दक्षो वामो वैधव्यसूचकः ॥ ११९ ॥
A whorl of hair may be on a woman's parting, forehead or neck. A whorl turning right is fine. A whorl turning left points to a risk of widowhood.
Simple meaning: A left-turning whorl of hair on the parting, forehead or neck is linked with a risk of widowhood.
याभिरेव वरदो महेश्वरः
Women who worshipped Shiva and Parvati long ago gain good marks, as the next verse says.
भूषितामलविभूषणादिभिः
Women who honoured Parvati and bathed at holy Prayaga are said to be born with good marks.
कृतं नहि तपो यया नगजया समाराधितो
The old text says a woman who did no worship, vows or giving may have a life of hardship.
