With troubled minds, certain souls enter the bodies of animals or humans, compelled by the disturbance within. Through acts such as giving, collecting, or seizing—whether by force or by their very nature—some women engage in such deeds. Whoever harms people who are endowed with virtue, purity, and the marks of righteousness, after their time in hell, where they are overwhelmed by fear and burdened by great sin, are reborn as humans only when their karma is exhausted. Yet even then, their new birth is harsh. They find themselves among prostitutes, gamblers, cheats, and distillers. Some are shameless, some are marked with tilaka, and some are castrated men. Among women, those who excessively indulge in sensual pleasures are born with similar tendencies, speaking those words, and reveling in those enjoyments. Men who are overly attached to good fortune become repulsive in appearance. The lowest among men suffer both physically and mentally. They inevitably encounter fire, caustic substances, and rivers—there is no doubt about this. All that has been declared here must be fully accomplished. Thus ends the two hundred and third chapter, called 'Enumeration of Groups of Sin,' in the glorious Varaha Purana. Now begins the description of sending messengers. I also heard this other account from him as he spoke. When someone is far away, what should be done? There is no end to this action. Is he ashamed? Has something been discovered? Why does he stand turned away? Go, go back there again quickly, and bring him here. Why do you speak, O foolish one? His marriage is ongoing. Why do you speak what is blameworthy? Wait for a moment. You call her 'devoted to her husband,' 'virtuous,' and again you speak in secret. How is he brought, knowing he desires to enjoy? How, O Hari? You are all righteous here; I alone act cruelly. Quickly, you become a serpent, and you, a tiger; you, a reptile. You have entered hell, afflicted by disease; become a terrible fever, a formidable crocodile in water. Become a fierce wind-disease, and likewise, you become dropsy. Become confusion quickly, and again become obstruction. Let the time remain here as is appropriate and as is seen. And you, having performed your actions, will then attain liberation. The boon-command of Dharma's king which I have declared—three nights, or four nights, six nights, or ten nights—after passing the time as is appropriate, then you will attain liberation. At whatever time I am, and as long as I remain, the instructions have been given by me as before, just as they were heard. Therefore, you must act accordingly with effort, by my command. Go to the sages and to the women, O mighty ones. Do what must be said, so that the proper time does not pass. I have especially instructed you, together with Mṛtyu. Just as Rudra himself has spoken, and as Śakra, lord of Śacī, has said.
