Karma Vipaka Samhita · by Anonymous
Chapter 2 · Ashvini and the Four Quarters
अश्विनी नक्षत्र चरण विचारः
पुष्पगन्धापहारी च मुखे तस्य विगन्धता ॥घृतहारी भवेत्कुष्ठी तस्मात् भ्रष्टः कृमिर्भवेत् ॥३१॥
A thief of flowers and perfumes has foul breath from the mouth. A thief of ghee has a skin disease. Fallen from that, he becomes a worm.
Classical view, not medical advice.
वृक्षगन्धापहारी च काकः संजायते नरः ॥
A thief of trees and perfumes becomes a crow. A thief of wells and stepwells gets a ringworm disease.
देवयात्रापहारी च कण्ठरोगी भवेन्नरः ॥
A thief of a god's procession gets a throat disease. One who kills the sarang (deer) lured by song, and one who sets a forest on fire,
अक्षिरोगी नासिकायां व्रणी कृमिसमाकुलः ॥
gets an eye disease and a sore in the nose, and is full of worms. A thief of oil becomes an oil-presser. A thief of jaggery is always feverish.
