قال سنجيا: «كل من هبط من عالم الآلهة يُولد هناك إنسانًا. موفورون بنسبٍ طاهرٍ نبيل، وكلهم بهيّو المنظر—نفوسٌ فاضلة ساقها استحقاقها من العوالم السماوية إلى أرض البشر.»

Educational Q&A
The verse links ethical merit (puṇya) with the conditions of human birth: those who descend from heavenly realms are portrayed as being born among humans with purity of lineage and pleasing qualities, suggesting a moral causality where past virtue shapes present embodiment and social circumstances.
Sañjaya continues a cosmographical description (in the Jambūkhanda-related section), explaining the kind of beings who are born in that region: humans who have come down from Devaloka, characterized as virtuous and of noble, auspicious birth.
