Chapter 7 · Women's Past Deeds
स्त्रीकर्मकथनम्
गुडं वा मधु वा खण्डं विप्राय प्रयता सदा ॥प्रयच्छति यदा देवि मुखे शुद्धिश्च जायते ॥ १८ ॥
When she always gives jaggery, honey or sugar to a brahmin, with care, O Goddess, her mouth becomes clean.
Classical view, not medical advice.
स्वपतिघ्नी च या नारी रण्डा भवति नान्यथा ॥
A woman who kills her husband becomes a widow, not otherwise. She should always worship the tulasi (holy basil) with love and faith.
ऊर्जे माघे च वैशाखे प्रातःस्नानं समाचरेत् ॥
She should bathe in the early morning in the months of Kartik, Magha and Vaishakha. She should keep the Ekadashi vrata (vow of fasting and worship)…
जपं कृत्वा प्रयत्नेन पतिरूपाय विष्णवे ॥
After careful japa (repeating a mantra), she should give it to Vishnu, who is in the form of the husband. Her sin goes away quickly.
