You have acquainted me with effects, experienced by men and women in a number of ways. According to Shastras, the soul of a person does not rest in peace after his death, if he is not blessed with a son. What sin does a person commit to remain without a son? And what are the remedial measures to be adopted by him to get a son? Kindly enlighten me about this. 4. Maharishi Parasara replied. I will now tell you, whatever Lord Shiva told Goddess Parvati in this respect. 5. Goddess Parvati said to Lord Shiva. O my Lord! What is the sin, which causes destruction of children amongst men. Please tell me, what are the Yogas for such an effect and what are the remedial measures to protect the children? 6. Lord Shiva replied: O Devi! You have asked a very relevant question. Now I will tell you the Yogas for loss of children and the requisite remedial measures. 7. A person will be without a son, if Guru, the Lord of Lagn and the Lord of the 5th are all devoid of strength. 8. The same will happen, if Srya, Mangal, Rahu andani, endowed with strength, be in the 5th and the significator for children, namely Guru and Lord of the 5 th etc. be bereft of strength. 9-16. There will be no male issue, due to the curse of a serpent, if at birth Rahu is in the 5 th, aspected by Mangal; the Lord of 5th is associated with Rahu and Candr is in the 5th and is aspected byani; the significator for children (Guru) is associated with Rahu, the Lord of the 5th is devoid of strength and the Lord of Lagn is with Mangal; the significator for children is associated with Mangal, Lagn is occupied by Rahu and the Lord of the 5th is in 6th, 8th, or 12th; Budh, as Lord of the 5th, being in the Navams of Mangal, is associated with Mangal and Lagn is occupied by Rahu and Gulika; the 5th is Mesh, or Vrischik and the Lord of the 5this associated with Rahu, or Budh; the 5th is occupied by Srya,ani, Mangal, Rahu, Budh and Guru and the Lords of the 5th and Lagn are devoid of strength; the Lord of Lagn, or Guru is associated with Rahu and the Lord of the 5th is in conjunction with Mangal. 17-19. Remedial measures should be adopted to obtain protection from the evil effects of the above Yogas. These are getting an idol of Naga (serpent) Raja, made in gold and, after worshipping it in accordance with prescribed procedure, giving in charity a cow, some land, sesame seeds and gold etc. By adopting these measures the Lord of Serpents will be gratified and by his beneficence the person concerned will be blessed with a son and the lineage of his family will be prolonged. 20-30.
