Chapter 101 · A Minister and a Grandson
पूर्वाभाद्रपदा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
गोदानं तद्दशांशं च तद्दशांशं च भोजयेत् ॥ब्राह्मणान् चैव देवेशि श्रद्धाभक्तिसमन्वितः ॥ १५ ॥
Then he gives cows, one tenth of that number. He feeds brahmins, one tenth of that again, O Queen of the gods. He does it with faith and devotion.
Classical view, not medical advice.
कूष्माण्डं नारिकेरं च पञ्चरत्नसमन्वितम् ॥
A pumpkin and a coconut, together with five jewels, should be given in the middle of the Ganga. This is to clear the past wrong.
वृषभस्तरुणः शुभ्रो घण्टाचामरशोभितः ॥
A young white bull, shining with bells and fly-whisks, should be given to a brahmin. A gift of a bed is especially needed.
एवं कृते वरारोहे शीघ्रं पुत्रः प्रजायते ॥
When this is done, O fair one, a son is soon born. The illness goes away. He has no more fever.
