Chapter 56 · A Warrior of Gaya and the Buffalo Calves
चित्रा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
भोजयेद्देवि षट्षष्टिब्राह्मणान् वेदपारगान् ॥निष्कत्रयसुवर्णस्य प्रतिमां वस्त्रभूषिताम् ॥ १३ ॥
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), dressed and decorated.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
पापं प्रणाशयेद्देवि नात्र कार्या विचारणा ॥
He destroys that sin, O Goddess. There is no need to doubt this. A kakavandhya (a woman who has only one child) gets an excellent son.
पुत्रश्च जायते देवि सुरूपेण समन्वितः ॥
A son is born, O Goddess, with a good form. All diseases fade away. There is no need to doubt this.
