Now I will tell you the remedial measures to be adopted to release the child born during gandanta from its evil effects. The father should see the child born only on the morning next to the end of the days of Sutaka or on any auspicious day after the performance of the remedial measures. The remedial measures are — (1) Giving a bullock in charity, in the case of Tithi Gandanta. (2) Giving a cow with calf in charity in the case of Nakshatra Gandanta. (3) Giving gold in charity in the case of Lagna Gandanta. (4) Performing Abhiseka (अभिषेक) of the child alongwith father if the birth is in the first part of gandanta and alongwith mother if the birth is in the second part of gandanta.
