Chapter 64 · A Warrior Who Gave Up His Duty
विशाखा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
आसीत्तदीयप्रमदा तादृक् यतो जनो योग्यमु-पैति सर्वम् ॥ यथार्थतः क्षिप्तमतीव दुःखेयमस्य दूतैः कृतपादशृङ्खलः ॥ ५ ॥
His wife was just like him, for a person gets all that suits him. The messengers of Yama (the god of death) chained his feet. They threw him into very deep suffering.
Classical view, not medical advice.
युगमेकं वरारोहे कष्टं भुक्त्वा सुदारुणम् ॥
For one age, O noble lady, he bore terrible pain. Then he became a buffalo, a bull and a horse. (Our text is unclear here: the words just before…
पुनश्च मानुषो भूत्वा तस्य भार्या च या पुरा ॥
Then he was born a man again. The wife he had before was married to him again, O Goddess. No son is born to her.
पुरा ह्येकाऽभवत्कन्या पुनः सूतिविवर्जिता ॥
Before, one daughter was born to her. After that she bore no more children. Illness comes in the body, and now and then fever.
