Chapter 110 · A Salt-Maker and a Friend's Jewels
रेवती नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
चतुरस्रे वरारोहे दशांशं विधिपूर्वकम् ॥तर्पणं तद्दशांशेन तद्दशांशेन मार्जनम् ॥ १५ ॥
The pit is square, O fair one. The homa (fire offering) is one tenth, by the rules. Tarpana (water offering to the ancestors and gods) is one tenth of that. Marjana (sprinkling) is one tenth of that.
Classical view, not medical advice.
गृहवित्ताष्टमं भागं ब्राह्मणाय समर्पयेत् ॥
He should give one eighth of his household wealth to a brahmin. He should have a homa (fire offering) done, O Goddess. The fire pit is well made…
गां सवत्सां ततो दद्यात्स्वर्णरत्नविभूषिताम् ॥
Then he should give a cow with her calf, decorated with gold and jewels. Afterwards he should feed brahmins. The wise man should give a pumpkin.
एवं कृते वरारोहे पुत्रो भवति नान्यथा ॥ १७ ॥
When this is done, O fair one, a son is born. It is not otherwise.
