Chapter 99 · A Merchant's Unpaid Loan
शतभिषा नक्षत्र चतुर्थ चरण
व्यापारार्थं विशालाक्षि न दत्तं ब्राह्मणाय वै ॥सर्वं भुक्तं महादेवि बहुकाले गते सति ॥ ५ ॥
For trade, O large-eyed one, it was not repaid to the brahmin. After a long time passed, he had used it all.
Classical view, not medical advice.
वैश्यस्यैव भवेन्मृत्युः सभार्यस्य वरानने ॥
The merchant died, together with his wife, O fair-faced one. At Mathura he gained a fine, good heaven.
दशलक्षमितं स्वर्गे फलं भुक्त्वा वरानने ॥
He enjoyed the fruit in heaven for a span of ten hundred thousand, O fair-faced one. Then, together with his wife, when the merit was used up again,
मानुषत्वं पुनर्लेभे देशे शुभ्रे मनोहरे ॥
he got a human birth again in a bright, lovely land. He is born with wealth and grain, O Queen of the gods.
