Chapter 41 · A Brahmin Lost to Wine and Gambling
मघा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
एवं बहुगते काले तस्य मृत्युरभूत्पुरा ॥पश्चान्मृता तु तत्पत्नी कर्कशा दुःखदायिनी ॥ ४ ॥
After much time, in the past, his death came. Later his harsh wife, a giver of grief, also died.
Classical view, not medical advice.
यमस्य किंकरैरेव निक्षिप्तो नरकार्णवे ॥
The servants of Yama (the god of death) threw him into the ocean of hell. It was for seventy thousand years, O Goddess.
भुक्तं दुःखं नरकजं दम्पतिभ्यां तदा शिवे ॥
The couple then suffered the pain of hell, O Parvati. Then, when the sin was spent, O Goddess, he took a dog's birth.
शुनो योनिं ततो भुक्त्वा शूकरो निर्जने वने ॥
After the dog's life he became a boar in a lonely forest. Then he gained a human birth again in the Middle country.
