WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
 | Indra saw personified sinful reaction chasing him, appearing like a caṇḍāla woman, a woman of the lowest class. She seemed very old, and all the limbs of her body trembled. Because she was afflicted with tuberculosis, her body and garments were covered with blood. Breathing an unbearable fishy odor that polluted the entire street, she called to Indra, “Wait! Wait!”
|
PURPORT
| | When a person is afflicted with tuberculosis, he often vomits blood, which makes his garments bloody.
