Chapter 64 · A Warrior Who Gave Up His Duty
विशाखा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
भक्त्या मम महादेवि शिवरात्र्यां विशेषतः ॥आजन्ममरणाद्देवि व्रतं कुर्यात्प्रयत्नतः ॥ १८ ॥
With devotion to me, O Great Goddess, keep a vrata (vow of fasting and worship) with care. Do it especially on Shivaratri (Shiva's night), all through life.
Classical view, not medical advice.
ततो वृक्षं च वेदीं च कपिलां गां सवत्सकाम् ॥
Then give the tree, the altar, and a tawny cow with her calf to the brahmin. This is to cleanse the earlier wrong.
एवं कृते महादेवि शीघ्रं पुत्रः प्रजायते ॥
When this is done, O Great Goddess, a son is soon born. All illness goes away. A vandhya (a woman who cannot bear children) gets a son.
मृतवत्सा लभेत्पुत्रं चिरंजीविनमुत्तमम् ॥ २० ॥
A mritavatsa (one whose children die young) gets a fine son who lives long.
