Chapter 20 · Kasa and Gadgadatva: past deeds
कास-गद्गदत्व — कर्मविपाकः
वाग्विरोधं गुरोः कृत्वा यन्मे गद्गदभाषितम् ।तत्सर्वं क्षपय क्षिप्रं ब्राह्मी त्वं लोकपावनी ॥इति दानमंत्रः ॥
I opposed my guru (teacher) in speech and spoke in a stammer. Destroy all that quickly, you Brahmi, purifier of the world. This is the mantra for the dana (gift).
Classical view, not medical advice.
तन्ममाध्यापनं देहि जाड्यं हर वरानने ।
So give me [the skill of] teaching. Take away my dullness, O fair-faced one. You are pleased by the gift of the bell. May you, supreme speech, be…
अनुज्ञाय ब्राह्मणं तं स्वयं भुंजीत मानवः ।
Having taken leave of the priest, the man himself should then eat.
इति गद्गदत्वहरसरस्वतीदानविधिः ॥
This is the rule of the gift of Sarasvati that takes away stammering.
