Chapter 72 · A Brahmin Who Found Treasure
ज्येष्ठा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
प्रतिमां कारयेद्देवि स्वर्णे पलदशस्य तु ॥भ्रातुश्चित्रं तदा देवि पूजयित्वा यथाविधि ॥ ९ ॥
Have a gold image made, of 10 pala (a unit of weight), O Goddess. It is the likeness of the brother. Worship it by the rule. (Our text is unclear here: one mark in the word for gold can be read two ways.)
Classical view, not medical advice.
गन्धधूपादिभिर्देवि भूषणैर्विविधैरपि ॥
Offer sandalwood paste, incense and many kinds of ornaments, O Goddess. Do 100,000 japa (repeating a mantra) of the Gayatri (a sacred Vedic chant)…
प्रयागे मकरे स्नानं सर्वपापक्षयो भवेत् ॥
Bathe at Prayaga in the month of Makara (when the Sun is in Capricorn), and all wrong is destroyed. Then give a milk cow to a brahmin.
भूमिं वृत्तिकरीं दद्यात् पुत्रपौत्रानुयायिनीम् ॥
Give land that gives a living, to pass to sons and grandsons. Then give a horse, and feed brahmins.
