Chapter 15 · Krittika 4th Pada
कृत्तिका नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
मरणे सति विप्रस्तु रौरवं नरकं गतः ॥वैश्यकर्म कृतं तेन स्वकर्म परिमुच्यते ॥ ५ ॥
At death the brahmin went to Raurava hell. He had done a merchant's work and let go of his own duty.
Classical view, not medical advice.
विंशद्वर्षसहस्राणि यमलोके वसत्यसौ ॥
He lived in the world of Yama (the god of death) for twenty thousand years. Coming out of hell, O Goddess, he was born as a bull and a pig.
योनिद्वयफलं भुक्त्वा मनुष्यत्वमवाप्नुयात् ॥
After enduring the fruit of the two births, he got a human birth. He has wealth and grain by the power of his merit.
ऋणसंबन्धतो देवि वैश्यः पुत्रत्वमागतः ॥
Through the debt, the merchant came as his son, O Goddess. Every day he spent that man's wealth, day after day.
