Chapter 95: Remedies from Birth of a Daughter after Three Sons

 

1-2. The Sage said. O Brahmin! I will now tell you about other kinds of

inauspicious births. The birth of a daughter after the birth of three sons, or

the birth of a son after the birth of three daughters is ominous for both the

maternal and paternal families of such children. Therefore remedial measures,

described below, may be taken to get deliverance from these evil effects.

 

3-9. The rites should be performed on the morning next to the last day of Sutak,

or on any other auspicious day in the following order. After selecting a priest

and some Brahmins to perform the remedial religious rites, the priest, after

paying obeisance to the nine Grahas, should install four Kalashas on a heap of

paddy, place the idols of Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesha and Indra, made of gold, on

them and perform their worship in the prescribed manner. A Brahmin (an

assistant of the priest), after taking bath etc., should recite four Rudra

Suktas and the whole of Shanti Sukta. The priest should perform Havan with

Samidha, Ghi and sesame seeds 1008, 108, or 28 times with the recitation of the

prescribed Mantras of Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesha and Indra. Svistkrata and

Purnahuti and Abhisheka of the child with his family should be done and

presents in cash should be given to the priest and his assistants, according to

one’s means. The Brahmins should be fed. The father and the mother of the

child should see their reflections in the Ghi, kept in a bronze vessel. Lastly

grains and clothes should be distributed to the poor and the needy. By the

performance of the above remedial rites the evil effects are wiped out and the

child and his parents etc. enjoy happiness.

[sJC: Achyuta Gurukul] tridev dosha/tridevi dosha

dear list VRA by Guru Sanjay Rath mentions tridev dosha/tridevi doshawhen after

the birth of three children of the same sexa fourth one is born of the opposite

sex.I have no other info on this but it has been been part of folklore in parts

of east India. Folklore says that Khana, the daughter-in -law of Varahamihira

had endorsed tridevi dosha i.e. a son after three daughters is disastrous for

the entire family. but she has said that the opposite makes the parents

prosper, i.e. trideva dosha -a daughter after three sons is auspicious.It would

be a great help if someone could shine a light on any detail/reference AND

remedies for this dosha.thanksAparna
