Chapter 73 · A Blacksmith of Pattana
ज्येष्ठा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
एको गृहे स्थितः पुत्रो द्रव्यं तस्मै प्रदत्तवान् ॥लोहकारेण भो देवि स्वभार्या पुत्रसंयुता ॥ ४ ॥
The one son who stayed at home was given the wealth, O Goddess. The blacksmith left his own wife, who had her son with her.
Classical view, not medical advice.
त्यक्ता चैव महादेवि गोपालस्य तु कन्यका ॥
He made a cowherd's daughter his wife, O Great Goddess. So he abandoned his wife.
ततो बहुगते काले लोहकारस्य वै शिवे ॥
After a long time, O Shiva's wife, the blacksmith was killed by a tiger. The messengers of Yama (the god of death) took him at Yama's order.
निक्षिप्तो नरके घोरे कृमिविष्ठादिसंयुतः ॥
He was thrown into a dreadful hell full of worms and filth. He bore the torment of hell for 30,000 years.
