Chapter 106 · A Warrior and His House Priest
उत्तराभाद्रपदा नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
व्याधिपीडागुल्मजालैः पीड्यते सततं हि सः ॥गायत्रीमूलमन्त्रेण पञ्चलक्षजपं चरेत् ॥ ४ ॥
He is always troubled by illness, pain and many swellings in the belly. He should do 500,000 japa (repeating a mantra). The mantra (sacred words) is the root mantra of the Gayatri (a sacred Vedic chant).
Classical view, not medical advice.
गृहवित्तषडंशेन पुण्यकार्यं च कारयेत ॥
He should do holy works with one sixth of the wealth of his house. Then, O Goddess, the wise man should have an image of a brahmin made.
पूजयित्वा ब्राह्मणाय दत्त्वा पापनिवृत्तये ॥
He should worship it and give it to a brahmin to end the wrong. He should also give a brahmin five pala (a unit of weight) of gold.
काकवन्ध्या लभेत्पुत्रं मृतवत्सा सुपुत्रका ॥ ७ ॥
A kakavandhya (a woman who has only one child) gets a son. A mritavatsa (one whose children die young) gets good sons.
