Chapter 81 · A Merchant and a Friend's Goods
पूर्वाषाढा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
ममापराधं देवेश क्षम्यतां पूर्वजन्मनः ॥द्रव्यं मित्रस्य भो देव स्थापितं स्वगृहे मया ॥१७॥
Forgive my wrong of the past birth, O Lord of gods. The wealth of my friend was kept in my house by me.
Classical view, not medical advice.
न दत्तं वै मयाज्ञानात् क्षम्यतां परमेश्वर ॥
I did not give it back, from ignorance. Forgive me, Supreme Lord. With this mantra (sacred words), O Goddess, let the worship be done by the rule.
पूजयित्वा तनो देवि ब्राह्मणाय प्रदापयेत् ॥
After worshipping, O Goddess, let him then give it to a brahmin. When this is done, O fair one, a son is soon born.
काकवन्ध्या पुनर्देवि कन्यकाजननी तथा ॥
A kakavandhya (a woman who has only one child) bears a son, O Goddess. So does a mother of daughters only. She does not bear a daughter.
