Chapter 93 · A Brahmin Who Left His Duties
धनिष्ठा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
तिष्ठत्यशंकया नित्यं म्लेच्छान्नं भुज्यते सदा ॥स संध्यारहितो विप्रः पिशुनो दुर्मतिः शठः ॥ ३ ॥
He lived there without fear, always eating the food of outsiders. That brahmin gave up the twilight prayers. He was a tale-bearer, evil-minded and crooked.
Classical view, not medical advice.
संचितं बहुसाहस्रं स्वर्णरत्नगजादिकम् ॥
He gathered many thousands in gold, jewels, elephants and the like. After many days passed, he died.
सर्पेण दष्टो देवेशि पञ्चके निर्जलेऽपि वा ॥
He was bitten by a snake, O Queen of the gods. It was in the panchaka (the Moon's time in the five stars Dhanishtha to Revati), or without water…
रौरवे क्षिप्तवाञ्छीघ्रं महाकष्टं प्रभुज्यते ॥
He was thrown at once into the Raurava hell and suffered great pain. He endured the torment of hell for sixty thousand years.
