Chapter 85 · A Brahmin and His Nephew's Jewels
उत्तराषाढा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
रविवारेण संयुक्तसप्तम्यां विधिपूर्वकम् ॥उपोषणं नियमतः पत्न्या सह वरानने ॥ २५ ॥
Fast on the seventh lunar day when it falls on a Sunday, O fair-faced one. Fast strictly, by the rule, with your wife.
Classical view, not medical advice.
सप्तवत्सरपर्यन्तं प्रकुर्य्याद्वै सुरेश्वरि ॥
Keep this for seven years, O Goddess. Then do the closing rite as you are able, O ever-kind one.
दद्याद्विप्राय विदुषे श्रोत्रियाय तपस्विने ॥
To a learned brahmin who knows the Veda and does austerity, give a pumpkin and a coconut with five jewels.
गङ्गामध्ये प्रदातव्यं पूर्वपापविशुद्धये ॥
Give it in the middle of the Ganga, to cleanse the earlier wrong. Do this, O fair one, and a son is soon born.
