Chapter 93 · A Brahmin Who Left His Duties
धनिष्ठा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
हवनं तद्दशांशेन मार्जनं तर्पणं तथा ॥त्रैमासिकव्रतं कुर्यात् व्रतं च रविसप्तमी ॥ १२ ॥
Let him do homa (fire offering) with a tenth part. Add sprinkling and tarpana (water offering to the ancestors and gods). Let him keep a three-month vrata (vow of fasting and worship). Let him also keep the Ravi Saptami vow (a seventh lunar day that falls on a Sunday).
Classical view, not medical advice.
जातवेदेति मन्त्रेण लक्षजाप्यं तु कारयेत् ॥
Let him have one hundred thousand japa (repeating a mantra) done with the "Jatavedase" mantra (to Jatavedas, a name of the fire god). Then, O…
दद्यात्सवस्त्रां विधिवद्ब्राह्मणाय शिवात्मने ॥
should be given by the rule, with cloth, to a brahmin devoted to Shiva. A horse should be given too, and a fly-whisk and an umbrella.
एवं कृते न संदेहो व्याधिनाशो भवेद् ध्रुवम्॥
When this is done, there is no doubt: disease surely ends. A son is born, O Goddess, and barrenness is calmed.
