Chapter 50 · An Oil-Presser of Gahana
उत्तराफाल्गुनी नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
॥ शिव उवाच ॥पुरे वै गहने देवि तैलकारोऽवसत्पुरा ॥महाधनाढ्यो वै देवि कोटिद्रव्येण संयुतः ॥ १ ॥
Shiva said: Long ago, in the city of Gahana, an oil-presser lived, O Goddess. He was very rich, with ten million in wealth.
Classical view, not medical advice.
तस्य च स्त्रीद्वयं चासीज्ज्येष्ठायां वै विषं ददौ ॥
He had two wives. He gave poison to the elder one. The younger one was the housewife and kept to her duty.
एवं बहुगते काले तैलकारस्य वै शिवे ॥
After many days the oil-presser died, O Parvati. The messengers of Yama (the god of death) took him by Yama's order.
महाकटाहे नरके निक्षिप्तश्च सुदारुणे ॥
He was thrown into the terrible hell of the great cauldron. There he suffered much pain and many kinds of hell torment.
