Chapter 76 · Kushtha: past deeds
कुष्ठ — कर्मविपाकः
अक्षमाला त्रिशूलं च तस्य दक्षिणहस्तयोः ।देवीपृष्ठगतो ह्येको वरदश्चापरः करः ।वामोत्संगगता देवी स्थितः पृष्ठैकपाणिना ॥
His two right hands hold a rosary and a trident. One hand goes behind the Goddess, and the other hand gives a boon. The Goddess sits in his left lap. He holds her back with one hand.
Classical view, not medical advice.
वृषभोऽप्यग्रतः कार्यं घंटयालंकृतस्तथा ।
A bull should also be made in front, adorned with a bell. If he is miserly with his wealth, against his own means, the rite brings no fruit.
तत्राप्यारोप्य देवेशमुमया सहितं प्रभुम् ।
Placing the lord of the gods there with Uma, he should worship them. He uses cloth, garlands and scent, and the main mantra of the god.
ततो ब्राह्मणमाहूय दरिद्रं धर्मकोविदम् ।
Then he should call a poor priest who knows what is right. He should be learned and of good conduct, calm, and a knower of the Self.
