अश्विनी नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
॥ ईश्वर उवाच ॥अथातः संप्रवक्ष्यामि नक्षत्रतुरगास्य तु ॥तृतीयस्य ततो देवि प्रायश्चित्तमतः शृणु ॥ १ ॥
Ishvara said: Now I will speak of the nakshatra (star) of the horse. O Goddess, hear the prayashchitta (remedy for a past wrong) for its third charana (quarter of a star).
Classical view, not medical advice.
अयोध्यापुरतो देवि दक्षिणे पूर्वदिग्गते ॥
To the south of Ayodhya, toward the east, in lovely Narayanapura, a king's son was born then.
स्वकर्मनिरतो दान्तः प्रजापोषणतत्परः ॥
He was devoted to his duty, self-controlled, and eager to nourish his people. His name was Cholasimha, and his wife was Prabhavati.
तस्य मित्रं द्विजोऽप्येकः स्वकर्मपरिवर्जितः ॥
He had a friend, a brahmin who had left his own duty. One day the king's son and the brahmin went hunting.
