Chapter 40 · A Trader Who Used a Friend's Wealth
मघा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
पुत्रदारैश्च संयुक्तस्तस्य द्रव्यं तदा प्रिये ॥भुक्तं सर्वं तदा देवि स्वदत्तं चैव पुण्यदम् ॥ ८ ॥
Then, with his sons and wife, dear one, he used up all of the brahmin's wealth. He used up even his own gift, which gives merit.
Classical view, not medical advice.
वृद्धत्वे च पुनर्जाते तस्य मृत्युरभूत्किल ॥
When he grew old, his death came. Because he died in Ayodhya, he then lived in heaven.
बहुवर्षसहस्राणि विष्णुलोके वरानने ॥
For many thousand years, fair one, he enjoyed many kinds of pleasure in the world of Vishnu. Then, when his merit ran out, sinless one,
मृत्युलोके भवेज्जन्म धनधान्यसमन्वितः ॥
he was born in the mortal world, rich in wealth and grain. He was always devoted to the worship of Vishnu and had the best devotion to brahmins.
