Chapter 56 · A Warrior of Gaya and the Buffalo Calves
चित्रा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
पुत्रश्च जायते देवि सुरूपेण समन्वितः ॥रोगाः सर्वे क्षयं यान्ति नात्र कार्या विचारणा ॥१६॥
A son is born, O Goddess, with a good form. All diseases fade away. There is no need to doubt this.
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.
मृतवत्सा लभेत्पुत्रं चिरंजीविनमुत्तमम् ॥ १७ ॥
A mritavatsa (one whose children die young) gets an excellent, long-lived son.
