Chapter 10 · A Woman's Body Marks
दशमोऽध्यायः
एकरोमा प्रिया राज्ञो द्विरोमा सौख्यभागिनी ।त्रिरोमा विधवा ज्ञेया रोमकूपेषु कामिनी ॥ १९ ॥
A woman may have one hair in each pore of the skin. The old texts link this with being dear to a king. Two hairs are linked with a share of comfort. Three hairs are linked with a risk of being widowed.
Simple meaning: One hair in each pore is linked with being dear to a king. Two, comfort. Three, a risk of widowhood.
Classical view, not medical advice.
भवति जानुयुगं यदि मांसलं
Fleshy, round knees are linked with great good fortune. The opposite marks are linked with the opposite.
समुन्नतनितम्बाढ्या यस्याः सिद्धाङ्गुला कटिः ।
Full, raised hips and a waist of a set measure are linked with becoming a king's chief queen.
निर्मांसा विनता दीर्घा चिपिटा शकटाकृतिः ।
A waist with little flesh, bent, flat, cart-shaped or hairy is linked with a risk of widowhood.
