Go-apahāra (Cattle Theft), Go-dāna (Cow-Gift), and Suvarṇa-dakṣiṇā (Gold Fee): Karmic Consequence and Purificatory Merit
अनुज्ञात: स कृष्णेन नमस्कृत्य जनार्दनम् | दिव्यमास्थाय पन्थानं ययौ दिवमरिंदम:,भगवान् श्रीकृष्णने उन्हें आज्ञा दे दी और वे शत्रुदमन नरेश उन्हें प्रणाम करके दिव्य मार्गका आश्रय ले स्वर्गलोकको चले गये
anujñātaḥ sa kṛṣṇena namaskṛtya janārdanam | divyam āsthāya panthānaṃ yayau divam ariṃdamaḥ ||
لما أذن له كريشنا، انحنى بخشوع وسجد تحيةً لجناردانا. ثم إن ذلك الملك القاهر للأعداء، وقد سلك طريقًا إلهيًّا، مضى إلى السماء—رحيلٌ يبرز المثال الأخلاقي القائل إن حياةً منسجمةً مع الدارما تنتهي بخاتمةٍ مكرَّمةٍ مباركة.
