Chapter 42 · Shula: past deeds
शूल — कर्मविपाकः
त्वं शूलब्रह्मणा सृष्ट त्वं पुरत्रयनाशन ।दैत्यानां दानवानां च शंकरस्यायुधं तथा ॥
"You, spear, were made by Brahma. You destroyed the three cities, and the Daityas and Danavas (classes of demons). You are also the weapon of Shankara."
Classical view, not medical advice.
कुक्षिस्थमथपार्श्वस्थमथ वा पृष्ठसंगतम् ।
"You are held by Mahadeva. Destroy my colic, whether it sits in the belly, the side or the back."
इति दानमंत्रः ॥
This is the mantra for the gift.
ततः स्नात्वा तु भुंजीत ब्राह्मणैर्बंधुभिः सह ।
Then bathe and eat with priests and kinsmen. The text says this soon eases the pain that came from harming with a spear.
