Chapter 31 · Punarvasu 4th Pada
पुनर्वसु नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
॥ शिव उवाच ॥अवन्त्याः पश्चिमे देवि कोशमात्रोपरि प्रिये ॥कैवर्त्तको वसत्येको नन्दने च पुरे शुभे ॥ १ ॥
Shiva said: West of Avanti, O Goddess, just over a krosha (a measure of distance) away, is a good town. It is Nandana, dear one. A fisherman lives there.
Classical view, not medical advice.
मनोहर इति ख्यातो धनाढ्यो जायते महान् ॥
He was named Manohara. He was a great man and became rich. His wife was Matta, glad to serve her husband.
मत्स्यमांसस्य भो देवि विक्रयं चाकरोत् खलु ॥
He sold fish and meat, O Goddess. He stored up many jewels and did not give much in gifts.
एकदा चन्द्रग्रहणे शतस्वर्णयुतं वृषम् ॥
Once, at an eclipse of the Moon, he gave a bull with a hundred gold coins to a learned brahmin. His wife was with him, and he gave with devotion.
