Chapter 50 · An Oil-Presser of Gahana
उत्तराफाल्गुनी नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
धनधान्यसमायुक्तो गुणज्ञो ज्ञानवानपि ॥ततो वै तस्य मरणं गङ्गायां देव्यभूत्पुरा ॥ ७ ॥
He is rich in money and grain, knows what is good and has knowledge. Then, O Goddess, he died in the Ganga long ago.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
अथ शान्तिं प्रवक्ष्यामि शृणु देवि सविस्तरम् ॥
Now I will tell the calming rite. Hear it in full, O Goddess. Let him do good works with one eighth of his house and wealth.
