Chapter 68 · A Greedy Merchant of Kalyana
अनुराधा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
एको द्यूतरतः पुत्रो द्वितीयो ब्राह्मणीरतः ॥वैश्येनैव विशालाक्षि धनं च बहु सञ्चितम् ॥ ४ ॥
One son loved gambling. The second loved brahmin women. The merchant gathered much wealth.
Classical view, not medical advice.
प्रत्यहं भुज्यते छागविक्रयं कुरुते सदा ॥
He ate every day and always sold goats. When he was old, O Great Goddess, the merchant died.
यमदूतैस्तदा बद्ध्वा निक्षिप्तो नरकार्णवे ॥
The messengers of Yama (the god of death) bound him and threw him into the ocean of hell. Yama, the Sun's son, showed his own form to that merchant.
नवत्यब्दसहस्राणि घोरे नरकदारुणे ॥
For 90,000 years, in the dreadful hell, worms of fearful shape gave him great pain.
