Chapter 7 · Women's Past Deeds
स्त्रीकर्मकथनम्
तेन पापेन भो देवि दरिद्रा पुत्रवर्जिता ॥ततः कुमारीं संपूज्य ब्रह्मविष्णुमहेश्वरान् ॥ १४ ॥
for that sin, O Goddess, is poor and has no sons. Then she should worship a young girl, and also Brahma, Vishnu and Maheshvara (Shiva).
Classical view, not medical advice.
पूजयेदब्दमेकं तु प्रत्यहं नियता प्रिये ॥
She should worship them every day for one year, with self-control, dear one. When the year is full, she should give the girl a cloth and send her off.
व्रतं सूर्यस्य वै कुर्यात्प्रणम्य प्रतिवासरम् ॥
She should keep the Sun's vrata (vow of fasting and worship), bowing to him every day. Then the woman burns away her past sin. There is no doubt.
मिष्टं भुङ्क्ते तु या नारी पत्युर्मिष्टं ददाति न ॥
A woman eats sweet food but gives none to her husband. For that sin she carries a bad smell in her mouth.
