Chapter 70 · A Brahmin of Sukarma
अनुराधा नक्षत्र तृतीय चरण
ततो बहुतिथे काले मृतः सोऽपि द्विजाधमः ॥ततस्तु यमदूतेन नरके घोरकर्दमे ॥ ४ ॥
After a long time that lowest of brahmins died too. Then a messenger of Yama (the god of death) took him to a hell of dreadful mud.
Classical view, not medical advice.
यमाज्ञया च निक्षिप्तः कष्टं भुक्तं मुहुर्मुहुः ॥
He was thrown there at the order of Yama (the god of death). He bore pain again and again. Leaving hell, O Goddess, he took an elephant's birth.
कच्छपत्वं ततो यातः काकयोनिस्ततोऽभवत् ॥
Then he became a tortoise, and then a crow. Then he became a man, in a great and fine family.
सर्वसंपत्तिसंयुक्तो वंशस्तस्य न जायते ॥
He has every kind of riches, but no line of descendants is born. He has many daughters, and the man is sick.
