Chapter 87 · A Scholar Who Ate the Wrong Food
उत्तराषाढा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
एकस्मिन् दिवसे देवि देशे कश्चिन्मृतः खलु ॥भोजनं तेन संस्कारं विना तत्र कृतं प्रिये ॥ ३ ॥
One day, O Goddess, someone died in that land. Balabhadra ate a meal there, though the funeral rite had not been done, dear one.
Classical view, not medical advice.
म्लेच्छद्रव्यं गृहीतं च भुक्तं पुत्रयुतेन च ॥
He took the wealth of a mleccha (outsider). He enjoyed it with his son and his wife, O fair one. Then he grew old.
मरणं तस्य वै जातं शंकेश्वरपुरे यदा ॥
His death came in Shankeshvarapura. By the order of Yama (the god of death), O Goddess, the messengers took him here and there.
नरके पतितं पश्चान्मर्त्यलोके ततोऽगमत् ॥
He fell into hell, and afterwards went to the world of mortals. He became a rooster, a crow, and then a pigeon.
