Chapter 68 · Vidradhi: past deeds
विद्रधि — कर्मविपाकः
फलचौर्येण यत्प्राप्तं वैरूप्यं पूर्वजन्मजम् ।सौवर्णवृक्षदानेन तुष्टाः सर्वाश्च देवताः ॥
"I got a deformity from a past life, by stealing fruit. By the gift of a golden tree, may all the gods be pleased."
Classical view, not medical advice.
विद्रधिं न शरीरोत्थं बाह्यमाभ्यंतरं तथा ॥
"May they remove all of the abscess risen in my body, outside and inside. May they always raise me up."
एवं दत्वा तु तद्दानमाचार्यायातिभक्तितः ॥
After giving that gift to the teacher with great devotion, he should walk slowly a hundred steps [after him]. Then he should bow and send him off.
अन्येभ्यो ब्राह्मणेभ्यश्च दद्याच्छत्तया तु दक्षिणाम् ॥
He should give a fee to other priests as he can. After feeding the priests, he should eat with his relatives.
