Chapter 26 · Chhardi: past deeds
छर्दि — कर्मविपाकः
इतिवचनात् । गौतमोक्तमपि । विश्वासघातकी छर्दियुक्तो भवति । तदुपशान्तये पंचाशद्ब्राह्मणभोजनं कारयेत् अन्नदानं च यथाशक्त्याऽऽज्ययुक्तं कुर्यात् । अग्निरस्मिजन्मनेति मंत्रेण व्याधिगुरुलघुभावेन जपं कुर्यात् । तिलहोमं च कुर्यात् । तेनोपशांतिर्भवति ॥
So the saying goes. Gautama also says this: one who breaks another's trust may suffer from vomiting. To bring peace to it, he should have fifty priests fed. He should give food with ghee as he can. He should do japa (repeating a mantra) of the mantra that begins "agnir asmi janmana". He does more or less of it by how heavy or light the illness is. He should also do a sesame homa (fire offering). By this, peace comes.
Classical view, not medical advice.
