Karma Vipaka Samhita · by Anonymous
Chapter 83 · A Garland-Maker of Ayodhya
पूर्वाषाढा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
दद्याद्दशपलं देवि ततः पुत्रः प्रजायते ॥मृतवत्सा च या नारी काकवन्ध्या च रोगिणी ॥१३॥
The tree should weigh ten pala (a unit of weight), O Goddess. Then a son is born. A woman may be a mritavatsa (one whose children die young). Or she may be a kakavandhya (a woman who has only one child), or ill.
Classical view, not medical advice.
ततः षडंशं देवेशि ब्राह्मणाय समर्पयेत् ॥
Then give a sixth part to a brahmin, O Goddess. Then give a tawny cow, and a sesame cow, well worshipped.
अश्वं दद्याद्विशालाक्षि महिषीं दुग्धसंयुताम् ॥
Give a horse, O large-eyed one, and a milk-giving buffalo. Give a tree made of gold, with fruit and flowers.
सर्वासां वाञ्छितं कार्यं जायते नात्र संशयः ॥ १४ ॥
Every wish of all these women is fulfilled. There is no doubt here.
