Chapter 82 · Kshudra roga: past deeds
क्षुद्ररोग — कर्मविपाकः
अथ वैकृत्यरोगे हे०तत्प्र० मूत्रपुरीषं कृत्वा शौचमकृत्वैव यो भुंक्ते स स्रवद्गुदो भवति । तत्र दारुणापि पीडा भवति । कृच्छ्रातिकृच्छ्रचांद्रायणानि कुर्यात् । अक्षीभ्यामित्यष्टोत्तरशतसहस्रं क्षीरसर्पिर्भ्यां जुहुयात् । उद्यन्नद्येति जपेत् ।
Next, the trouble of deformity: cause and remedy. One who passes urine or stool and eats without washing may get a leaking anus. The pain is then severe too. He should do krichchhra (penance fast), atikrichchhra (a harder penance fast) and chandrayana (moon-phase fast). He should do homa (fire offering) with milk and ghee, one hundred and eight thousand times. He uses the Vedic mantra that begins "akshibhyam". He should do japa (repeating a mantra) of the one that begins "udyann adya". (Our text is unclear here: the count and the mantra names.)
Classical view, not medical advice.
तथा विशेषतश्च ब्रह्मपुराणे ।
And especially, in the Brahma Purana: Water, sweet milk rice, mung beans, and sugar mixed with ghee. This must be given for easing every illness.
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…
