Karma Vipaka Samhita · by Anonymous
Chapter 33 · Pushya 2nd Pada
पुष्य नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
पुनः स्यान्मानुषो देवि मध्यदेशे सुपूजितः ॥पूर्वजन्मनि वृक्षाणां छेदनं प्रत्यहं कृतम् ॥ ७ ॥
Then, O Goddess, he became a human again, well honoured in the Middle country. In his past birth he cut trees every day.
Classical view, not medical advice.
तेन पापेन भो देवि पुत्रो नैव प्रजायते ॥
By that sin, O Goddess, no son is born. Daughters are born. The wife has a very harsh illness.
शरीरे महती पीडा रात्रौ निद्रा न लभ्यते ॥
There is great pain in the body. No sleep comes at night. A daughter's widowhood comes from the cutting of trees, dear one.
तस्य शांतिं प्रवक्ष्यामि ततः पापनिवर्त्तनम् ॥
I will tell the remedy for it, and then the end of the sin. He should have one fourth part of his wealth given to a brahmin.
