Chapter 30 · Punarvasu 3rd Pada
पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
द्रव्यं सर्वं गृहीत्वा तु तां पुरीं च ततस्त्यजन् ॥सर्वं स्वर्णं व्ययीकृत्वा न दानं च कृतं क्वचित् ॥५॥
He took all the wealth and left that city. He spent all the gold and gave nothing anywhere.
Classical view, not medical advice.
एकदा समये देवि नापितेन सह स्त्रिया ॥
Once, O Goddess, the barber and his wife were at Prayaga. It was the month of Makara, and they stayed a whole month without a break.
प्रत्यहं क्रियते स्नानं प्रातःकाले सदाशिवे ॥
Every day at dawn, O ever-auspicious one, he bathed. He also gave a gift of a cow and a bull decorated with gold.
ततो वै मरणं तस्य नापितस्य सुरेश्वरि ॥
Then the barber died, O Queen of gods. He died on a stony road with no water, in the middle of the way.
