27. The Hell Called "Pum"
Scripts say, a person who dies childless
Shall not attain the heavenly abode
But languish in a hell called "Pum",
A special one for the childless.
Children are the only power who can lift
Their parents from Pum to heaven.
Childless is cursed to the hell forever.
Hence a son is also called Putra.
It is provided in the scripts
That if a man dies childless
A brother of the deceased
May father children with the widow
And such children shall be
Considered those of the deceased
Entitled to perform funeral rites
And save him from the hell.
This is what I had asked of Devabrata,
So our dynasty, Puruvamsam thrives,
Vichitravirya is saved from the hell
and Hastinapura shall have a ruler.
Refused by him, I lost all hopes
Resigned to the inevitable
I confined myself to the antapura
No more confident to face the world.
