Chapter 29 · Punarvasu 2nd Pada
पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
प्रतिमां दापयेत्पश्चाद्ब्राह्मणाय वराय च ॥बन्धुभिः सह भुञ्जीत ततो विप्रविसर्जनम् ॥ ३४ ॥
After that he should have an image given to a good brahmin. He should eat with his kinsmen. Then he sends the brahmins away.
Classical view, not medical advice.
यथाशक्ति प्रदद्याद्वै ब्राह्मणेभ्यश्च दक्षिणाम् ॥
He should give the brahmins a fee as he is able. He should hear the Harivamsha (a sacred book about Krishna), and worship the image made of earth.
भूमिदानं विशेषेण ब्राह्मणाय च दापयेत् ॥
He should especially have land given to a brahmin. When this is done, O fair one, the wrong born of the past life
पापं प्रशमयेच्छीघ्रं मम वाक्यं च नान्यथा ॥
is quickly calmed. My word is not otherwise. Disease and every other kind of sorrow come to an end.
