तत्रैव यातनां भुङ्क्ते यमदूतेन ताडितः । तित्तिरिः कुलटागामी धृष्टागामी च वायसः
There he endures torment, struck by the messengers of Yama; one who goes to a kulata becomes a partridge, one who goes to a dharshini becomes a crow.
कोकिलः पुंश्चलीगामी वेश्यागामी वृकः स्मृतः । पुङ्गीगामी सूकरश्च सप्तजन्मनि भारते
One who goes to a pumshchali becomes a cuckoo; one who goes to a courtesan is said to become a wolf; one who goes to a pungi becomes a boar for seven births in Bharata.
महावेश्याप्रगामी च जायते शाल्मलीतरुः । यो भुङ्क्ते ज्ञानहीनश्च ग्रहणे चन्द्रसूर्ययोः
He who indulges in intercourse with prostitutes, or who eats during eclipses of the moon or sun without knowledge, is born as a śālmalī tree.
अरुन्तुदं स यात्येवाप्यन्नमानाब्दमेव च । ततो भवेन्मानवश्चाप्युदरे रोगपीडितः
He goes to Aruntuda and eats food there for a year; after that, he becomes a human afflicted with disease in the belly.
गुल्मयुक्तश्च काणश्च दन्तहीनस्ततः शुचिः । वाक्प्रदत्तां स्वकन्यां च योऽन्यस्मै प्रददाति च
Afflicted with tumors, one-eyed, toothless, then pure; whoever gives his own daughter, promised by word, to another man.
स वसेत्पांसुकुण्डे च तद्भोजी शतवत्सरम् । तद्द्रव्यहारी यः साध्वि पांसुवेष्टे शताब्दकम्
He dwells in a pit of sand, eating from it, for a hundred years; the one who steals such property from a virtuous woman is wrapped in sand for a hundred years.
निवसेच्छरशय्यायां मम दूतेन ताडितः । भक्त्या न पूजयेद्विप्रः शिवलिङ्गं च पार्थिवम्
He resides on a bed of arrows, struck by my messenger; the Brahmin who does not worship the earthly Śiva-liṅga with devotion.
स याति शूलिनः पापाच्छूलप्रोतं सुदारुणम् । स्थित्वा शताब्दं तत्रैव श्वापदः सप्तजन्मसु
He goes, because of sin, to the terrible place pierced by the trident of Śiva; after staying there for a hundred years, he is born as a wild animal for seven births.
ततो भवेद्देवलश्च सप्तजन्म ततः शुचिः । करोति कुण्ठितं विप्रं यद्भिया कम्पते द्विजः
Then he becomes a god for seven births, then pure; whoever causes a Brahmin to tremble out of fear.
प्रकम्पने वसेत्सोऽपि विप्रलोमाब्दमेव च । प्रकोपवदना कोपात् स्वामिनं या च पश्यति
He dwells for a year, trembling, with the hair of a Brahmin; whoever, out of anger, looks at his master with a wrathful face.
कटूक्तिं तं प्रवदति सोल्मुकं सम्प्रयाति हि । उल्कां ददाति तद्वक्त्रे सततं मम किङ्करः
Whoever speaks harsh words to him goes to the realm of Ulmuka; my servant always places a firebrand in that person's mouth.
दण्डेन ताडयेन्मूर्ध्नि तल्लोमाब्दप्रमाणकम् । ततो भवेन्मानवी च विधवा सप्तजन्मसु
He is struck on the head with a staff for the measure of a year of hair; then he becomes a widow for seven births.
सा भुक्त्वा चैव वैधव्यं व्याधियुक्ता ततः शुचिः । या ब्राह्मणी शूद्रभोग्या चान्धकूपे प्रयाति सा
She, having experienced widowhood, then becomes pure, though afflicted with disease; the Brahmin woman who is enjoyed by a Śūdra goes to a dark pit.
तप्तशौचोदके ध्वान्ते तदाहारी दिवानिशम् । निवसेदतिसन्तप्ता मम दूतेन ताडिता
There, she eats in water heated for purification, in darkness, day and night; she dwells, greatly tormented, struck by my messenger.
शौचोदके निमग्ना सा यावदिन्द्राश्चतुर्दश । काकी जन्मसहस्राणि शतजन्मानि सूकरी
Immersed in water for purification, she remains there as long as the fourteen Indras; she is born as a crow for a thousand births, as a pig for a hundred births.
शृगाली शतजन्मानि शतजन्मानि कुक्कुटी । पारावती सप्तजन्म वानरी सप्तजन्मसु
As a jackal for a hundred births, as a hen for a hundred births; as a pigeon for seven births, as a monkey for seven births.
ततो भवेत्सा चाण्डाली सर्वभोग्या च भारते । ततो भवेच्च रजकी यक्ष्मग्रस्ता च पुंश्चली
After that, she becomes a cāṇḍālī, enjoyed by all in Bhārata; then she becomes a washerwoman, afflicted with consumption, and a prostitute.
ततः कुष्ठयुता तैलकारी शुद्धा भवेत्ततः । निवसेद्वेधने वेश्या पुङ्गी च दण्डताडने
Then, afflicted with leprosy, she becomes an oil-maker, then pure; she dwells as a prostitute in a pit, as a drum-player, and is struck with a staff.
जलरन्ध्रे वसेद्वेश्या कुलटा देहचूर्णके । स्वैरिणी दलने चैव धृष्टा च शोषणे तथा
A prostitute dwells in a water-hole, a wanton woman in a powder-house; an independent woman in a crushing place, and a bold one in a drying place.
निवसेद्यातनायुक्ता मम दूतेन ताडिता । विण्मूत्रभक्षा सततं यावन्मन्वन्तरं सति
She dwells, tormented, struck by my messenger; always eating excrement and urine for the duration of a Manvantara.
ततो भवेद्विट्कृमिश्च लक्षवर्षं ततः शुचिः । ब्राह्मणो ब्राह्मणीं गच्छेत्क्षत्रियां वापि क्षत्रियः
Then one becomes a worm in excrement for a hundred thousand years; after that, purified, a brāhmaṇa may approach a brāhmaṇī, or a kṣatriya a kṣatriyā.
वैश्यो वैश्यां च शूद्रा वा शूद्रश्चापि व्रजेद्यदि । सवर्णपरदारैश्च कषायं यान्ति ते जनाः
A vaiśya may approach a vaiśyā, and a śūdra a śūdrā; but if one goes to the wife of another of the same varṇa, those people go to the realm of punishment.
भुक्त्वा कषायतप्तोदं निवसेद्वा शताब्दकम् । ततो विप्रो भवेच्छुद्धस्ततो वै क्षत्रियादयः
Having endured the torments and drunk boiling water, one dwells there for a hundred years; then, purified, he becomes a brāhmaṇa, and after that, the other varṇas likewise.
योषितश्चापि शुद्ध्यन्तीत्येवमाह पितामहः । क्षत्रियो ब्राह्मणीं गच्छेद्वैश्यो वापि पतिव्रते
Women too are purified in this way, so says the Grandfather; a kṣatriya may approach a brāhmaṇī, or a vaiśya a devoted wife.
मातृगामी भवेत्सोऽपि शूर्पे च नरके वसेत् । शूर्पाकारैश्च कृमिभिर्ब्राह्मण्या सह भक्षितः
He who goes to his mother becomes one who has intercourse with his mother, and dwells in the hell called Śūrpa; there, together with the brāhmaṇī, he is devoured by worms shaped like winnowing baskets.
प्रतप्तमूत्रभोजी च मम दूतेन ताडितः । तत्रैव यातनां भुङ्क्ते यावदिन्द्राश्चतुर्दश
He eats burning urine, is beaten by my messenger, and there he suffers torment as long as the fourteen Indras reign.
सप्तजन्म वराहश्च छागलश्च ततः शुचिः । करे धृत्वा तु तुलसीं प्रतिज्ञां यो न पालयेत्
For seven births he becomes a boar, then a goat, and after that, purified; but if one, having taken a vow holding tulasī in his hand, does not keep it—
मिथ्या वा शपथं कुर्यात्स च ज्वालामुखं व्रजेत् । गङ्गातोयं करे कृत्वा प्रतिज्ञां यो न पालयेत्
Or if he swears falsely, he goes to the hell called Jvālāmukha; if, holding Gaṅgā water in his hand, he does not keep his vow—
शिलां वा देवप्रतिमां स च ज्वालामुखं व्रजेत् । दत्त्वा दक्षिणहस्तं च प्रतिज्ञां यो न पालयेत्
Or if he touches a stone or an image of a deity and does not keep his vow, he goes to Jvālāmukha; likewise, if, having given his right hand in pledge, he does not keep it—
स्थित्वा देवगृहे वापि स च ज्वालामुखं व्रजेत् । आस्पृश्य ब्राह्मणं गां च ज्वालावह्निं व्रजेद् द्विजः
Or if, standing in a temple, he does not keep his vow, he goes to Jvālāmukha; if a twice-born, having touched a brāhmaṇa or a cow, does not keep his vow, he goes to the fire of flames.
