Chapter 20 · Mrigashira 1st Pada
मृगशिरा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
प्रत्यहं पाठयामास चतुर्वेदान्तविस्तरान् ॥वेदशर्मा द्विजः ख्यातस्तस्य पत्नी सुशीलका ॥ ३ ॥
Each day he taught the four Vedas, in full. The brahmin was known as Vedasharma. His wife was Sushilaka.
Classical view, not medical advice.
प्रत्यहं पाठयेद्वेदं जीविकार्थं वरानने ॥
O lovely one, he taught the Veda each day for his living. A blacksmith died in that city.
न दत्तं तस्य वै स्वर्णं लोहकारस्य संस्थितम् ॥
He did not give back the gold the blacksmith had left with him. O Goddess, he lived off that gold every day with his wife.
एवं बहुगते काले मरणं ब्राह्मणस्य वै ॥
Much time passed, and the brahmin died. O Goddess, he went to the world of the Sun, because he served the Sun god.
