Chapter 52 · A Goldsmith and a Merchant's Gold
हस्त नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
एवं बहुगते काले वैश्यस्य मरणे सति ॥पश्चान्मृतस्तदा सोऽपि स्वर्णकारो वरानने ॥ ५ ॥
After many days the merchant died. Later the goldsmith died too, O lovely one.
Classical view, not medical advice.
उभौ च नरके प्राप्तौ बहुकालं तु दोषतः ॥
Both reached hell for a long time because of their fault. They suffered the pain of hell for one yuga (age), O Goddess.
नरकान्निःसृतौ तौ तु शुनो योनिं तदा गतौ ॥
Coming out of hell, both took a dog's birth. Then a bull's birth, and then a human birth.
महद्धनैः समायुक्तो देशे पुण्यतमे शुभे ॥
He is rich in great wealth, in a most holy and good land. By the link from the past birth, the merchant became his son.
