Mahabharata — Svargarohana Parva, Shloka 14
सर्वकामगुणोपेता यानानि विविधानि च । भवनानि विचित्राणि भूमिर्वासांसि काउ्चनम्
sarvakāma-guṇopetā yānāni vividhāni ca | bhavanāni vicitrāṇi bhūmir vāsāṃsi kāñcanam ||
বৈশম্পায়নে ক’লে—তাত সকলো কাম্য সুখ-সুবিধা আৰু উৎকৃষ্ট গুণেৰে সমৃদ্ধ নানাবিধ যান আছিল; আশ্চৰ্যজনক, বিচিত্ৰ বৰ্ণৰ প্ৰাসাদ আছিল; আৰু ভূমি আৰু বস্ত্ৰো আছিল—সুৱৰ্ণ-প্ৰভাৰে দীপ্ত।

The verse highlights the abundance of pleasurable, splendid objects—vehicles, mansions, lands, and golden garments—evoking the idea that the fruits of action can manifest as refined enjoyments; within Svargarohana’s larger arc, such splendor also implicitly contrasts with the deeper quest for the highest good beyond mere luxury.
Vaiśaṃpāyana is describing a scene of extraordinary opulence: many kinds of richly endowed conveyances, ornate dwellings, and golden-looking possessions, as part of the broader depiction of the otherworldly/royal environment encountered in the Svargarohana narrative.
