Chapter 50 · An Oil-Presser of Gahana
उत्तराफाल्गुनी नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
गृध्रत्वं कुक्कुटत्वं वै द्वे योनी च तदा गतः ॥मानुषस्य च वै योन्यां जातः खलु वरानने ॥ ६ ॥
He went through two births, a vulture and a cock. Then, O lovely one, he was born in a human womb.
Classical view, not medical advice.
धनधान्यसमायुक्तो गुणज्ञो ज्ञानवानपि ॥
He is rich in money and grain, knows what is good and has knowledge. Then, O Goddess, he died in the Ganga long ago.
तत्पुण्येन महादेवि मानुषो धनवानभूत् ॥
By that merit, O great Goddess, he became a rich man. But before, as an oil-presser, he gave poison to his elder wife.
तत्पापेनैव भो देवि पुत्रो नैव प्रजायते ॥
By that sin, O Goddess, no son is born to him. He has many diseases, and his wife is always in distress.
