Chapter 32 · Pushya 1st Pada
पुष्य नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
गां तथा महिषीं दद्याद्विधिवद्भोजयेद्द्विजान् ॥गायत्रीजातवेदाभ्यां द्विलक्षं च जपं ततः ॥ १७ ॥
He should give a cow and a buffalo, and feed brahmins by rule. Then he should do japa (repeating a mantra) two hundred thousand times. He uses the Gayatri (a sacred Vedic chant) and the Jatavedas (a name of the fire god) verse.
Classical view, not medical advice.
कुण्डे कोणत्रये चैव होमं वै कारयेत्ततः ॥
Then he should have a homa (fire offering) done in a pit with three corners. The homa and the rest should be a tenth of the japa (repeating a mantra).
ततो वै प्रतिमां कुर्याद्वैश्यस्यैव विधानतः ॥
Then he should make an image of the merchant by rule. It is of twelve pala (a unit of weight) of gold, with care.
पूजयेत्पूर्वजैर्मन्त्रैस्ततो विप्राय दापयेत् ॥
He should worship it with the mantras (sacred words) told before, and give it to a brahmin. When this is done, no doubt, a son is born, not otherwise.
