Chapter 27 · Ardra 4th Pada
आर्द्रा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
गृहीतं चैव नो दत्तं ततः शृणु वरानने ॥ततो बहुगते काले शूद्रस्य मरणं ह्यभूत् ॥ ६ ॥
He took it and did not give it back. Hear on, O fair-faced one. After much time the shudra (servant class) died.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
पुनर्जातो मर्त्यलोके काकश्च महिषो बकः ॥
Born again in the mortal world, he was a crow, a buffalo and a heron. Then, O Goddess, he became human in a great and good family.
स्वर्णकारस्य द्रव्यं वै गृहीतं पूर्वजन्मनि ॥
In the past life he took the goldsmith's money, O Goddess, and did not repay the debt. So his son dies.
