Chapter 81 · A Merchant and a Friend's Goods
पूर्वाषाढा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
ॐ लक्ष्म्यै नमोऽथ मन्त्रेण दशायुतजपं ततः ॥दशांशं हवनं तद्वत्तर्पणं मार्जनं तथा ॥ १२ ॥
Then let him do japa (repeating a mantra) with the mantra (sacred words) 'Om, salutation to Lakshmi'. Let it be a hundred thousand (ten times ten thousand). Homa (fire offering) with a tenth. Likewise tarpana (water offering to the ancestors and gods) and marjana (sprinkling).
Classical view, not medical advice.
गामेकां कृष्णवर्णां वै स्वर्णयुक्तां सवत्सकाम् ॥
Let him give one black cow, with gold, with her calf, and with pearls on the tail, to a brahmin.
भोजनं कारयेत्पूज्यान् ब्राह्मणान् वेदपारगान् ॥
Let him feed worthy brahmins who know the Vedas fully: a hundred, or two hundred, or especially three hundred, O Goddess.
पलैः शतैः सुवर्णस्य वेदीं कृत्वा विचक्षणः ॥
Let the wise man make an altar with a hundred pala (a unit of weight) of gold. In its middle let him place an image of the brahmin, made of silver.
