Chapter 72 · A Brahmin Who Found Treasure
ज्येष्ठा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
षष्टिवर्षसहस्राणि निक्षिप्तश्च यमाज्ञया ॥भुक्त्वा नरकजं दुःखं काकयोनिरभूत्पुनः ॥ ५ ॥
He was thrown there for 60,000 years at the order of Yama (the god of death). After bearing the pain of hell, he became a crow again.
Classical view, not medical advice.
पुनर्मानुषयोनिं च पुत्रकन्याविवर्जितः ॥
He was born a man again, without sons and daughters. In his past life, O Goddess, he never gave his brother's share.
तेन पापेन भो देवि महारोगसमुद्भवः ॥
For that wrong, a great illness arose. I will tell the remedy for it. Listen, O noble daughter of the mountain.
गृहवित्ताष्टमैर्भागैः पुण्यकार्यं च कारयेत् ॥
Spend one eighth of the house wealth on holy works. Carefully repair old step-wells, wells, ponds and the like.
