Chapter 56 · A Warrior of Gaya and the Buffalo Calves
चित्रा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
गायत्रीजातवेदाभ्यामयुतं जपमाचरेत् ॥हवनं तद्दशांशेन तर्पणं मार्जनं ततः ॥ ११ ॥
He should do 10,000 japa (repeating a mantra). He should use the Gayatri (a sacred Vedic chant). He should also use the Jatavedas (a name of the fire god) mantra (sacred words). Then a homa (fire offering) of a tenth of that. Then tarpana (water offering to the ancestors and gods) and marjana (sprinkling).
Classical view, not medical advice.
पथि मध्ये वरारोहे पञ्चवृक्षस्य वाटिकाम् ॥
He should make a garden of five trees along the road, O fair-hipped one. He should do it as his means allow, ringed with Vishnu's trees and others.
भोजयेद्देवि षट्षष्टिब्राह्मणान् वेदपारगान् ॥
O Goddess, he should feed sixty-six brahmins who know the Vedas well. He should make an image of gold of three nishka (a unit of gold weight)…
ब्राह्मणाय ततो दद्यात् विष्णुभक्ताय सुन्दरि ॥
Then he should give it, dear one, to a brahmin who loves Vishnu. O wide-eyed one, doing so he clears the sin done in a past life.
