Chapter 48 · A Merchant and the Brahmin's Gold
उत्तराफाल्गुनी नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
सर्वं वैश्येन तद्द्रव्यं भुक्तं बहुदिनोपरि ॥शरीरत्याजनाद्देवि पुण्यतीर्थे स्त्रिया सह ॥ ५ ॥
The merchant enjoyed all that wealth for many days. Because he gave up his body with his wife in a holy place, O Goddess,
Classical view, not medical advice.
अयोध्यायां विशालाक्षि स्वर्गवासं तथाक्षयम् ॥
in Ayodhya, O wide-eyed one, he lived in heaven, a home that does not run out. He enjoyed its lovely fruit for fifteen yugas (ages).
ततः पुण्यक्षये जाते मृत्युलोके सुरेश्वरि ॥
Then his good deeds ran out, O queen of the gods, and he came to the world of mortals. He was born as a man in a great and honoured family.
धनधान्यसमायुक्तो विष्णुपूजासु तत्परः ॥
He is rich in money and grain and devoted to the worship of Vishnu. In the past he took the brahmin's gold and did not give it back.
