Chapter 3 · Ashvini 1st Pada
अश्विनी नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
एकादशीव्रतं चैव सप्तमीं रविसंयुताम् ॥यावत्स्वमरणं देवि कुर्यात्सत्ययुतो नरः ॥ १४ ॥
A man of truth should keep the vrata (vow of fasting and worship) of the eleventh day. He should also keep the seventh day that falls on a Sunday. He should do this until his death.
Classical view, not medical advice.
ततो वै ब्राह्मणान्देवि भोजयेद्विधिपूर्वकम् ॥
Then, O Goddess, he should feed brahmins by the rule. After the meal he should give a gift of gold as the fee.
प्रतिमालंकृता देवि वाचकाय प्रदापयेत् ॥
He should have the decked image given to the reader of the scripture. When this is done, O Great Goddess, a line of descendants arises, not otherwise.
पूर्वपापविशुद्धिः स्यात् व्याधिरेवं विनश्यति ॥१५॥
He becomes free from his past sin, and the illness is destroyed in this way.
