Chapter 27 · Ardra 4th Pada
आर्द्रा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
गोसहस्रं कृतं दानं भार्यया सहितेन वै ॥नर्मदायां विशालाक्षि स्वर्णवस्त्रयुतं तथा ॥ ४ ॥
With his wife he gave a thousand cows in gift on the Narmada river, O large-eyed one. He gave gold and cloth with them.
Classical view, not medical advice.
तत्रैव चाभवत् पीडा मृत्युलोकसमुद्भवा ॥
There too, a pain of the mortal world came on him. He held a goldsmith's money from a business dealing.
गृहीतं चैव नो दत्तं ततः शृणु वरानने ॥
He took it and did not give it back. Hear on, O fair-faced one. After much time the shudra (servant class) died.
ततोऽसौ नरके घोरे वर्षलक्षद्वयं तथा ॥
Then he lived in a terrible hell for two hundred thousand years. There he suffered pain in many ways from his own deeds.
