Chapter 82 · Kshudra roga: past deeds
क्षुद्ररोग — कर्मविपाकः
तथा चोक्तं विष्णुना ।जपेत्स्तोत्रादिमंत्रांश्च सेतुरामेश्वरेक्षणात् ।श्रीपर्वतेक्षणाद्वापि गौतमीस्नानतोपि वा ॥मुक्तो भवति पंचाशद्ब्राह्मणानां च भोजनात् ।
And Vishnu has said: One should repeat hymns and other mantras. One is freed by seeing Rameshvara at Setu, or Shriparvata (a holy hill). Bathing in the Gautami river (the Godavari) also frees one. So does feeding fifty priests.
Classical view, not medical advice.
इति सर्वांगतोद्दाहरोगे पानीयादिदानविधिः ।
This ends the rite of giving water and the rest, for burning over the whole body.
अथाविज्ञातरोगे हे० तत्प्र० । विषोद्बंधनशस्त्राद्यैरात्मानं यः प्रमापयेत् । जन्मजन्मांतरेऽविज्ञातरोगवान्भवति । वैद्यो रोगसंज्ञां कर्त्तुमपि न शक्नोति । स तु जपहोमादि सेतुबंधरामेश्वरदर्शनं च कुर्यात् ।
Next, the unknown illness: cause and remedy. One who ends his own life by poison, hanging or a weapon may have an unknown illness. This may go on…
इति वैद्याविज्ञातक्षुद्ररोगशांतिः ।
This ends the peace rite for minor ailments that the physician cannot recognise.
