Chapter 34 · Pushya 3rd Pada
पुष्य नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
मृता रात्रौ तदा देवि पंके वैतरणी च सा ॥बहुघस्त्रात्ततो देवि मरणं तस्य वै गृहे ॥ ३ ॥
That night, O Goddess, the cow died there in the mud, and she became a Vaitarani (the river of hell). After many days, O Goddess, his own death came in his house. (Our text is unclear here: the word for 'after many days' is printed in a damaged form.)
Classical view, not medical advice.
तस्य पत्नी सती जाता सत्यलोकं गतौ च तौ ॥
His wife became a sati (a wife who dies with her husband). The two went to Satyaloka (the world of truth). He stayed in Satyaloka for ten lakh years…
पुनः पुण्यक्षये जाते मर्त्यलोके तदाभवत् ॥
Then, when his merit ran out, he was born again in the human world. He was well born, rich in wealth and grain.
पत्न्या सह वरारोहे ब्राह्मणानां च सेवकः ॥
O fair one, he lived with his wife and served brahmins. In his past birth, O Goddess, a cow had sunk in the mud.
