Chapter 93 · A Brahmin Who Left His Duties
धनिष्ठा नक्षत्र द्वितीय चरण
संचितं बहुसाहस्रं स्वर्णरत्नगजादिकम् ॥ततो बहुदिने जाते तस्य मृत्युरभूत्पुरा ॥ ४ ॥
He gathered many thousands in gold, jewels, elephants and the like. After many days passed, he died.
Classical view, not medical advice.
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.
नरकान्निःसृतो देवि ग्राहयोनिरभूत्पुरा ॥
Coming out of hell, O Goddess, he was born a crocodile. Then he was born a tortoise, and then he got a human birth.
