ज्येष्ठा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
हरिवंशश्रुतिं कुर्याच्चण्डीपाठं निरन्तरम् ॥तिलधेनुप्रदानं वै ह्यमाश्राद्धं विशेषतः ॥ १७ ॥
Have the Harivamsha (a sacred book about Krishna) heard. Recite the Chandi (the sacred text of the Goddess) without a break. Give a cow made of sesame. Do the new-moon shraddha (rite for the dead ancestors) especially.
Classical view, not medical advice.
ख्यातवंशे समुत्पन्नो भूमिभागो न लभ्यते ॥
Born in a famous family, he cannot get a share of land. Now I will tell the remedy to cleanse the earlier wrong.
एकादशीव्रतं नित्यं षडंशं दानमाचरेत् ॥
Keep the Ekadashi vrata (vow of fasting and worship) always. Give one sixth of your wealth. Have the six-limbed recital done every day, after…
एवं कृते महादेवि पुत्रस्तस्य भविष्यति ॥
When this is done, O Great Goddess, he will have a son. Childlessness calms down, and all illness ends.
