Chapter 38 · A Garland Maker and Unreturned Gold
आश्लेषा नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
मालाकारस्तु तत्स्वर्णं भुक्त्वा पुत्रस्त्रिया युतः ॥बहुवर्षगते काले मरणं तस्य चाभवत् ॥ ८ ॥
The garland maker lived on that gold with his sons and wife. After many years his death came.
Classical view, not medical advice.
तदा गन्धर्वनगरे बहुवर्षसहस्रकम् ॥
Then, fair one, he and his wife were in the city of the gandharvas (heavenly singers). They enjoyed the fruit of heaven for many thousand years.
ततो बहुगते काले मानुषत्वमवाप्तवान् ॥
After a long time he gained a human birth. He was rich, virtuous, fond of enjoyment, and devoted to the gods and brahmins.
तस्य पत्नी विशालाक्षि पूर्वजन्मप्रसङ्गतः ॥
His wife, O large-eyed one, because of the link with the past birth, was married to him again. She was devoted to serving her husband.
