Chapter 30 · Punarvasu 3rd Pada
पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
॥ शिव उवाच ॥पुर्यामवन्तिकायां वै नापितो वसति प्रिये ॥स्वकर्मणः परिभ्रष्टः कृषिकर्मरतः सदा ॥१॥
Shiva said: In the city of Avanti lives a barber, dear one. He fell away from his own work and was always busy at farming.
Classical view, not medical advice.
पत्नी तस्य महादेवि परपुंसि रता सदा ॥
His wife, O great Goddess, was always fond of other men. She was famous as harsh, and was named Dardura.
एकस्मिन् दिवसे देवि वैश्यो धनसमन्वितः ॥
One day a merchant rich in wealth came near him. He had gathered a koti (ten million) of gold.
नापितेन ततो देवि वैश्यो धनसमन्वितः ॥
Then, O Goddess, at midnight the barber killed that rich merchant with a sword.
