यः करोति महापापी चैताभिः सह मैथुनम्
Whoever, being greatly sinful, engages in sexual union with these women,
नाधिकारो भवेत्तस्य सूर्य्यमण्डलदर्शने
has no right to behold the solar orb.
सर्वतीर्थजलं चैव विप्रपादोदकं तथा
He is unworthy of the water of all holy places and likewise of the water from a Brahmin’s feet.
दैवं गुरुं ब्राह्मणं च नमस्कर्तुं न चार्हति 2.52.
He is not fit to bow to the gods, the teacher, or a Brahmin.
देवताः पितरो विप्रा नैव गृह्णन्ति भारते
The deities, ancestors, and Brahmins do not accept offerings from him in the land of Bharata.
सप्तरात्रं ह्युपवसेद्दैवस्पर्शात्तथा द्विजः
A twice-born should fast for seven nights after such contact with the divine.
तत्पापात्पतितो देशः कन्याविक्रयिणो यथा
Because of that sin, the land falls, just as in the case of one who sells his daughter.
नृणां च तत्समं पापं भवत्येव न संशयः
And for men, that sin is equal—there is no doubt about it.
दिवानिशं भ्रमेत्तत्र चक्रावर्त्तं निरन्तरम्
Day and night, he wanders there endlessly in a whirling cycle.
एवं नित्यं महापापी भुङ्क्ते निरययातनाम्
Thus, the great sinner continually endures the torments of hell.
गते प्राकृतिके घोरे महति प्रलये तथा
When the dreadful, natural dissolution arrives,
षष्टिवर्षसहस्राणि विष्ठायां च कृमिर्भवेत्
for sixty thousand years he becomes a worm in excrement.
सप्तजन्मसु शुद्धश्च गलत्कुष्ठी नपुंसकः
In seven births, he is pure, but afflicted with leprosy and impotent.
लब्ध्वैवं सप्त जन्मानि महापापी भवेच्छुचिः ।। 2.52.
Having thus obtained seven births, the great sinner becomes pure.
मुनय ऊचुः एभिस्तुल्यो भवेद्दोषोऽप्यतिथीनां पराभवे
The sages said: The same fault arises also from neglecting guests.
प्रणामं कुरु विप्रेन्द्रं गृहं प्रापय निश्चितम्
Offer obeisance to the chief of Brahmins and certainly bring him into the house.
वनं गच्छ महाराज तपस्यां कुरु सत्वरम्
Go to the forest, O great king, and quickly undertake austerity.
इत्युक्त्वा मुनयः सर्वे ययुस्तूर्णं स्वमन्दिरम्
Having spoken thus, all the sages swiftly returned to their own hermitages.
इति श्रीब्रह्मवैवर्त्ते महापुराणे द्वितीये प्रकृतिखण्डे नारदनारायणसंवादान्तर्गतहरगौरीसंवादे राधोपाख्याने सुयज्ञोपाख्याने कर्मविपाको नाम द्विपञ्चाशत्तमोऽध्यायः
Thus ends the fifty-second chapter, entitled 'The Fruits of Action,' in the narrative of Suyajña within the story of Rādhā, in the dialogue between Hara and Gaurī, which is part of the conversation between Nārada and Nārāyaṇa, in the Prakṛti section of the great Purāṇa Śrī Brahmavaivarta.
श्रीपार्वत्युवाच किं चकार नृपश्रेष्ठो ब्रह्मशापेन विह्वलः
Śrī Pārvatī said: What did that foremost of kings do, distressed by Brahmā's curse?
अतिथिर्ब्राह्मणो वाऽपि किं चकार तदा प्रभो
Or what did the guest, who was a brāhmaṇa, do at that time, O Lord?
महेश्वर उवाच प्रेरितश्च वसिष्ठेन धर्मिष्ठेन पुरोधसा
Maheśvara said: Urged by Vasiṣṭha, the most righteous family priest,
पपात दण्डवद्भूमौ पादयोर्ब्राह्मणस्य च
He fell to the ground like a staff, at the feet of the brāhmaṇa.
सस्मितं ब्राह्मणं दृष्ट्वा त्यक्तमन्युं कृपामयम्
Seeing the brāhmaṇa, who was smiling, free from anger, and full of compassion,
राजोवाच किंनामा वाऽपि तद्ब्रूहि क्व वासः कथमागतः
The king said: Tell me, what is your name, where do you reside, and how have you come here?
विप्ररूपी स्वयं विष्णुर्गूढः कपटमानुषः
You are Viṣṇu himself, disguised as a brāhmaṇa, hidden in the form of a man.
को वा गुरुस्ते भगवन्निष्टदेवश्च भारते
O blessed one, who is your teacher, and which deity do you worship in Bhārata?
गृहाण राज्यं निखिलमैश्वर्य्यं कोशमेव च
Accept the entire kingdom, all the wealth, and the treasury as well.
सप्तसागरसंयुक्तां सप्तद्वीपां वसुन्धराम् 2.53.
Rule over the earth, joined with the seven oceans and seven continents.
मया भृत्येन शाधि त्वं राजेन्द्रो भव भारते
Rule me, your servant; become the lord of kings in Bhārata.
