Chapter 92 · A Farmer and His Sister's Son
धनिष्ठा नक्षत्र प्रथम चरण
अज्ञानाद्वा प्रमादाद्वा भागिनेयवधः कृतः ॥तत् क्षमस्व दयापूर्ण त्र्यम्बक त्रिपुरान्तक ॥ १६ ॥
Whether through ignorance or carelessness, the killing of my sister's son was done. Forgive that, O one full of mercy, Tryambaka, destroyer of Tripura.
Classical view, not medical advice.
ततो वै पूजयामास लोकपालान् पृथक् पृथक्॥
Then let him worship the guardians of the directions, one by one. After that let him give an offering of black gram, and then have the image given…
ब्राह्मणाय तदा देवि पूर्वपापविशुद्धये ॥
Let it be given to a brahmin, O Goddess, to cleanse the past sin. When this is done, O fair-hipped one, a son is born.
व्याधयः संक्षयं यान्ति न कन्या जायते खलु ॥
Diseases go to ruin. A daughter is not born. If it is not done, O Goddess, he will have no son for seven births.
