Chapter 60 · A King Who Sheltered His Son
स्वाती नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
विष्णोरराटमन्त्रेण जपं कुर्याद्विचक्षणः ॥दद्याद्गां वेदविदुषे सवत्सां चैव शोभने ॥ १२ ॥
The wise one should do japa (repeating a mantra) with the mantra (sacred words) 'Vishnor aratam'. He should give a cow with a calf to a man who knows the Vedas, O fair one.
Classical view, not medical advice.
वस्त्ररत्नसमायुक्तां घण्टाचामरभूषिताम् ॥
The cow should have cloth and gems, and be adorned with a bell and a chowrie fan. He should bathe at Kashi at an eclipse of the sun or the moon.
निष्कत्रयसुवर्णस्य कमलं कारयेत्ततः ॥
Then he should have a lotus made of gold of three nishka (a unit of gold weight). O fair-hipped one, he should give the fine lotus to a brahmin.
एवं कृते वरारोहे सर्वपापक्षयो भवेत् ॥
When this is done, O fair-hipped one, all sin is destroyed. Even a vandhya (a woman who cannot bear children) gets an excellent, long-lived son.
