न क्षुत्पिपासे ग्लानिं वा प्राप्यतां प्राप्नुवंति ते । नानरूपैरुपकृता सुचित्रैश्च सुभास्वरैः

Sandhi Resolution Notes: kṣutpipāse = kṣut-pipāse; nānarūpairupakṛtā = nānā-rūpaiḥ upakṛtā; sucitraiśca = su-citraiḥ ca.
A state where beings are free from bodily distress—no hunger, thirst, or fatigue—suggesting a heavenly or divinely sustained realm attained through merit or divine grace.
It indicates attentive care or service provided in many forms—implying abundant provisions and varied comforts rather than a single, limited kind of support.
It reinforces the Purāṇic theme that higher states of existence are marked by relief from suffering and are associated with righteous conduct, devotion, or accumulated merit that yields divine well-being.
